Kezia Talinathe's page

Shrugging, Kezia glances to Variel. "That sounds pretty terrible, but what reason would we have to trust your words?"

Glancing to the others, Kezia steps toward the rider with a hand on her blade. "Irrisen is far from here. We know little of its politics. Why has the northern snow come down to the south?"

Kezia lunges forward, trying to score a hit. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 for 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Kezia lunges at the wounded sprite, growling a spell as she does so. Defensive casting: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 for Acid splash 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20 v touch ac for 1d3 ⇒ 2 acid damage.

She then swings with her sword. 1d20 + 4 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 2 - 2 = 11 for 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 damage.

"Back me up then, I'll need some healing."

Kezia moves and attacks the spell-casting sprite. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 for 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8.

Round 2

"May the spirits of these creatures be judged appropriately." Kezia forms a ball of ice in one hand and lobs it at a faery. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 for 1d8 ⇒ 4 cold damage. DC 15 fort save or staggered.

Round 1
Kezia waits to see how Ketill's attack goes. If the guardian still stands, she charges it. Can she just use the last attack rolled? I mistook the surprise round for round 1.

If the guardian falls, she'll cast snowball on the troll. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17 v touch AC for 1d8 ⇒ 4 cold damage and staggered for 1 round (DC 15).

Kezia enchants her blade (3/5 arcane pool) and charges. 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 for 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 damage.

+1 attack, -2 AC until the end of her next turn. +1 attack/damage with longsword.

Kezia lets out a whistle. Knowledge(Arcane): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 "I don't know, but there's only one guardian."

As a side note, did we not loot/find anything on Izoze?

Kezia, twirling her now-enchanted spear, attacks Izoze again. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21 for 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Cursing as her strike goes wide, Kezia's elfin eyes glow blue briefly. The energy runs out from her hands and encases the spear in her grip, giving it a pale luminescent glow. She sets her feet and calls out a prayer to Pharasma, striking forward against Izoze.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 for 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 damage. Cold Iron, +1

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Kezia moves forward behind the others, striking with her spear at the mephit.
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15 for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Kez is still at 3 HP, but she goes down in one hit anyway so not sure how useful it is to bother healing her.

Kezia shrugs. "...like releasing the soul trapped within. Shall we release it then?"

Knowledge(Arcane): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 Likely effect if we break the gem? "Hmn...that may have consequences, though."

"...I should retire from this business before it even gets started."

Kezia eyes where the doll rolled out, but doesn't proceed to follow it.

Fort save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 Sorry for the inaction! This is to see if she can even take those actions from before ^^

Edit: She's disabled (0 hit points) and staggered..so unlucky!

Sorry! My internet/pc has been down since Saturday afternoon. We've been moving and it took awhile to set up desks.

Pathfinder Society ID: # 127667.
Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Day Job (Craft Alchemy): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Kezia is cautious, approaching slowly behind Joesef and lunging forward with her cold iron spear. The elf sets her feet and thrusts straight, the point aiming for where Joesef's weapon had cracked through.

Longspear: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Kezia will call out to it without moving from her position behind Joesef. "Where is your master or mistress, construct? And where is that girl?"

I also don't really care about the boons and am fine with option 2 and option 3!

Knowledge(Arcane) Assist: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 "Whatever it is, its likely a trap." Kezia's experiences during the day have made her momentarily paranoid.

Following closely, but staying relatively quiet, Kezia tries to stick to the shadows and rocks as she goes after her companions. Where's the trap going to spring..I know its here.. Stealth: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

"Follow her, but keep your eyes open for danger." Kezia stays behind Joesef and Ketill with her spear.

"This feels like a trap."

Standing with Variel's help, Kezia just growls and sheathes her sword, pulling out a longspear. "Yeah, enough of that for a week for me."

Kezia falls unconscious. Again. She tumbles over, blood spilling from the bludgeoning of the trees.
Talk about unfortunate.

Glancing at Ketill and arching an eyebrow, Kezia rolls her eyes and walks toward the unburied ground. Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

"Sure they do, when the dolls are strange, arcane and filled with magical power. That screams 'treasure' to me!"

Knowledge(Arcane): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 for uses of dolls in magical traditions relating to the cold?

Variel's healing brings Kezia back, but just barely. Unless Nelwin's heals are aimed at her?

"I hate undead. And unless you want some of us to just stand back and sit out of the fight, Nelwin, I don't see how that's going to work."

Oh! I forgot to add +2 for flanking, if it matters.

"I learned my lesson last time..try and keep them separated, watch out for when they die!"

Kezia moves around behind the nearest skeleton, flanking with Joesef. She smashes at it with her warhammer. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Kezia picks up a cold iron scimitar. We may want to spend a day in town before heading back out though. She's down to 2 hit points, 3 with a day's rest.

"Ask them about why they kidnapped the noble woman. And ask the sprite about this weather. Why are the winter faeries acting up and causing so much cold?"

Kezia takes a backseat to the prisoner interrogations. People skills aren't her strong suite. She'll spend the time guarding the sprite.

"Hmn..perhaps I misunderstood then. Let's keep him for now. We can sort all of this out later."

"For the first time..I find myself agreeing with the gnome."

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20 Kezia leaps back from the exploding skeleton, avoiding the worst of the burst. Wincing and flexing half-frozen muscles she shivers, standing and trying to warm herself up.

"I hope that's the last surprise in here. I could use a rest." Seeing Nelwin try to reach the top shelf causes her to join him in the closet and she reaches up to take down the cage. "Find anything useful in all those papers?"

Taking her warhammer in both hands, Kezia shifts back on her left foot and lifts her right as she swings the hammer overhead for a powerful crack. 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Frowning at the skeletons, Kezia drops her sword and pulls out her hammer. Move action. She curls her fingers into a fist and punches it forward, a burst of pale yellow light flashing from her hand into the nearest skeleton.

"No, skeletons are not normal, Joesef."
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 vs touch AC for 1d6 ⇒ 1 positive damage. Disrupt Undead

Oh! I forgot about the Fascinated ones, Variel, Sorry! I was thinking of the two we'd knocked out and you stabilized.

I haven't added the other items, but quickly jotted down what was found from the most recent fight + chests here.

Kezia watches silently from the staircase as Nelwin comforts the noble. She rolls her eyes and turns, shaking her head. "Glad she's safe at least." She calls back over one shoulder to the other elf. "They'll likely hang them. But yes, let's bring them back since you took the effort to keep them alive."

The magus draws her sword and walks to the base of the stairs. "Joesef, Variel want to check out the top up here while Nelwin and Ketill deal with the unconscious bandits?"

Cleaning off her blade, the elf frowns a bit and nudges the body with her boot. She mumbles quietly to herself, shaking her head. "Should have used my training and just knocked him out.."
Forgot she had the ability to do nonlethal with her sword for no penalty :(

While Joesef is looking for trap doors, she'll be looking at the maple chest in room H12 and the chests in the sick-bay room. Take 20 for 21 on her perception. If no traps are found, she'll open them.

Kezia moves in front of the and stabs at the bandit's leader. "The rest of your men are incapacitated. Why don't you make this easy for everyone?" 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Confirmation Hit: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 and 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 bonus damage.

She switched to two-handed for strength times 1.5.

Did Kezia's attack from last round hit?

Kezia will try tumbling past the half-orc to avoid provoking and lash out at her after standing up inside the room. She'll spend a swift action to enchant her blade as she does so. 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21 for 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 damage and 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 nonlethal cold damage. On a hit, target is fatigued and entangled for 1 round.

The elf sprints after Joesef, grumbling to herself. "Can't let the humans have all the fun." She casts frostbite, her blade acquiring an icy sheen with small, magical blue snowflakes floating around it. She'll hold the charge. Move over the H6

Kezia rubs her hands together, feeling the cold grow more intense between them. Between them forms a small, constantly moving, spiral of wind and snow. The orb coalesces into a snowball whose surface swirls constantly. "Are we holding this position then?," she asks as she throws her hand forward and the ball of ice streaks toward one of the bandits.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17 touch AC for 1d6 ⇒ 1 cold damage and DC 15 Fort save or target is Staggered 1 round

Kezia's only response to Ketil is a rude gesture and a snarky smile before she continues onward. She cries out as the bolt punches through muscle beneath her ribs, clasping a hand around the wound to stem the flow of blood. She takes it out only as Nelwin approaches and she gives him a shaky smile.

"Thank you, its always welcome to have a cleric around. Just no talk of cauterizing wounds with lava or fire or something now.."

True and Pathfinder certainly rewards mobile characters but what other situation takes out half the party so easily?

Any encounter where having positive intimidate/diplomacy/charisma is a prerequisite :P Or a sneaky-type scenario thing where you need disguise/acrobatics/stealth/bluff or diplomacy or spells that take the place of those. The first of those seems to show up all the time and the second one I've had show up twice in two different games in the last year.

Fortunately, both times I was playing a caster and simply used charm person, disguise self, blend, spider climb and a few others to keep up.
