Justinius Redarm's page

I cannot forsee this grave endevour being anything but utter failure without my help. I'm in.

I assume that I am so popular that publicly stating my interest would bolster recruitment.

I'm interested!

Let it go now. I am definatly interested in another game so let me know if you want to do one in the 5-7 posts per week range.

I am quite fond of the character Justinius has become. My first thought is to keep playing him. I would welcome any new players, but I also get frustrated with the posting rate. Imho, posting 3-4 times a week is not going to cut it durring combat, 5-6 is really the range I'm interested in.

I think we should try to continue this game (with or without new players) and give it 1-2 months to see if we can improve the posting rate, moving to option 3 then.

I miss killing people and breaking things.....

Nate is through surgery and on his way home to rest

Justinius begins carefully looking over the room for any useful items or clues as to where the 'Queen of Flames' has retreated.

take 20 in the whole room (if no one objects)
are there any doors out of the room?

Justinius chuckles a little out loud, but quickly stiffles his amusement at Jims retort.

"We may seem to over value dining, Jim, but breaking bread together is one way to build valuable bonds between us that bear fruit durring stressful times such as combat."

Before eating, he channels positive energy channel: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 2, 2, 1, 2) = 16

As they finish the meal, Justinius prays for a few minutes and then, looking refreshed, suggests they continue exploring.

it is, but I'm pretty light on daily abilities, so now's as good a time as any. :)

"Thank you, Val. That was most effective." Justinius says, looking himself over.

"If there is no immediate need for haste, I would like to stop for a bite to eat."

if no one minds, I would like to use my blessing of halcamora.

After a quick swipe to ensure that she didn't just become invisible, Justinius scans the room for any more potential immediate threats.

perception: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (2) + 23 = 25

"She has likely fled deeper into this dungeon to prepare for our next meeting. We should likewise be ready." Justinius says looking at the wounds he and the others have sustained.

"Valanthe, would you be so kind?"

is reverse gravity still going?

I think casting featherfall as an immidiate action uses your swift action for this round. But you dont really need fly yet. Also I'm pretty sure bows crit for 3x, not 2x. Good shooting!

ROUND 3 initiative 31

"Thank you, Valanthe." Justinius says with a smile. Not bothering to stand up, he smites the demon and flies toward her, slashing as soon as he is near enough.

attack one: 1d20 + 35 ⇒ (5) + 35 = 40
dmg: 1d6 + 6d6 + 24 ⇒ (1) + (5, 2, 6, 5, 3, 2) + 24 = 48

"Expidite your penetence, foul one. As the alarmists in the city say, the end is near!" Justinius says glaring at the fiery demon.

I second that.

forgot the bonus' from Jim, so +3 to hit and dmg on all that jazz.

ROUND 2 initiative 31

if it was fun and easy, anyone could do it. Time to show these folks what makes you the tip of the spear, Justinius.

Justinius adjusts to make sure the foul creature is between himself and Jim. Then call down judgment on the beast before unleashing a flurry.

boots of speed attack: 1d20 + 32 ⇒ (2) + 32 = 34

Nate said that a 5' step by me would flank the big one between us. So I think you are adjacent to it now. But I go before you and plan to do serious damage so you may want to wait until I post.

will save: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
Caught off guard by the grotesque images, Justinius doubles over in agony.

according to jims post, he was attacking the huge humanoid with me, not the flame chic. let me know if I cant get the flank he was trying to provide.

to the huge humanoid

I will tumble. my first attack is against flat footed AC. If it hits for sneak damage, the creature is denied aoo's for 1 round as per slow reactions.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (15) + 21 = 36

Seeing an opportunity to catch this new foe off guard, Justinius rushes it, attacking with fervor. haha ;)

haha...hope this thing is flat footed, my best roll was an 8

not to be pushy or impatient, but it may be time to bot oliver.

"Cry out to Lamashtu, beast! Cry out for your wasted life of unholy servitude! Cry out for her to save you now! Cry out in anger that She has abandoned you to face justice!"
As he advances, Justinius' shouts grow louder. Eyes on me, beast! Let the others get into position....
swift-smite evil
move-move to within 20' of her
standard-try to get a better look at the 'lava water'
blessing of fervor=+2 on attack rolls, ac and ref saves

perception: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (8) + 23 = 31

"I am Justinius Redarm, Paladin and humble servant of Iomedae, The Inheritor." Justinius says, stepping into the room with weapons drawn.
"I have been charged with ridding this dungeon of foul, evil filth. Destroying abominations and making this place safe for those who DESERVE to dwell here."

when close enough, I will use detect evil on the creature
6/7 rounds of divine power left

I'm ready Jim

"Given the amount of time these caverns lay untouched, the prospects of finding an innocent in jepordy are next to nil."
Justinius continues, activating a scroll as Jim mans the door.
"I want our enemies to know that I am come. That I carry mercy in my right hand and justice in my left. That their end is near. I want them to see the steel in my eyes as I deliver them to the next."

before the door gets opened-
protection from energy (fire)
divine power (extended)

"Thank you for the offer, Valanthe. I know that your purpose is improved tactics, however, I do not wish to partake in concealment."

when ready, Justinius will cast Divine Power extended by Blessing of Fervor

"Another few seconds and I will be ready. I wouldnt mind a lively tune as I send these abominations back to the abyss, Jim" Justinius sends back to Jim through the bond.

Justinius wants to kick off Protection from Energy and Divine Power before we open the door, but preferably just before open it, as it is a short-lived buff, so if others need prep time, he waits. If not, next round is go time.

Justinius wastes no time readying himself for another encounter, casting blade Blade Tutors Spirit and standing 10' back from the stone door.

I probably just wasn't paying attention. Garrek was far too busy looking for people to offend.

that's the highest perception check I've ever seen.

"Valanthe, if you desire to cleanse this foul place now, I will support that course of action. However, we may yet catch other ilk in these ruins before they can fully prepare for us. I will submit to your decision, but either action should come soon."

I suggest the hallway. Leaving the closed door undisturbed for now.

Justinius heals a little of his wounds, looking sadly at his scrawny arm and then follows about 60' behind Jim.

Lay on Hands: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 5, 5, 6) = 24

"A more thorough search of these chambers can be conducted later. Our focus now should be preparing for what potential danger Jim may find."

ballocks....

Startled a bit by the kiss, but refreshed by the spell, Justinius blushes a bit and thanks Valanthe.

Then he tests his arms with a few swings before sheathing his swords.
these arms were never really much to write home about, cant afford to lose what little meat I've got.....

Turning his attention to the corpse, he looks for valubles or anything that could be misused by anyone who follows.

perception: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (8) + 23 = 31

Justinius girds himself as the very aura of the demon reaches out to sap the life from him.

fortitude save 1: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32

fortitude save 2: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32

fortitude save 4: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21

fortitude save 5: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (13) + 19 = 32

calling on Desna to protect him, the young man pushes back at the darkness.....

surge fort save #4: 1d6 ⇒ 1

dang...so close....

strength damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

also....did Oliver just ninja me?

Haha, sorry. I posted in a hurry and then had to retype it after a submit fail. I will try to get some trash talk posted when I get to work.

Round 3 Initiative 31

Shaking off the demons attempts to sap the muscle from his arms, Justinius continues his assult with single-minded vitriol.

ROUND 2 Initiative 31

Will save: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (4) + 20 = 24

Grinning as his foe appears on this side of the wall, Justinius thinks Good....time to make you regret that.
"Jim, when you recover your senses, I could use an assist."

With inhuman speed, Justinius charges the demon, tumblig in to avoid opening himself up to harm, unleashing blow after blow on the smote outsider.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (17) + 21 = 38

Fleet Charge attack to hit: 1d20 + 32 ⇒ (11) + 32 = 43

fifth attack damage: 1d6 + 1d6 + 21 ⇒ (1) + (2) + 21 = 24

I took the +2 to hit and ac from blessing of fervor.
I have slow reactions, so if I hit and dealt sneak damage with the first hit, it should be denied aoo's for 1 round. (so those 1's won't come back to bite me)

third attack crit confirm: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (11) + 26 = 37
third attack damage: 1d6 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27

ROUND 1 Initiative 31

Knowing that an invisible foe is difficult for him to effectivly challenge, Justinius draws and activates a scroll to help deal with the new threat.

capital idea.

Swords and smites at the ready, Justinius strains his senses to cover the hallway.
perception: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (20) + 23 = 43

I've got half a mind to surge that just to be obnoxious

Justinius continues to watch the apparently empty hallway, waiting for something he can neither hear nor see.

.......apprehensive about engaging a duel-wielding paladin?

tap tap tap........is this thing on?.......
