Luna Solerra's page

Yeah, we deeply appreciate you sticking with it and working to finish.

Luna inclines her head respectfully. "I am Luna Solerra, researcher of the arcane arts and adjunct professor at the Academae of Korvosa.

Luna slides through a crack in reality, appearing back with the rest of the party, and with a snap of her fingers dismisses the bubble of force just in time to let David charge through the space it was previously occupying.

Move action Dimensional Slide, standard action dismiss Emergency Force Sphere. David charges.

David Powerful Charge, PA, bardsong, haste: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (14) + 21 = 35
Damage: 4d10 + 27 ⇒ (8, 7, 3, 5) + 27 = 50 + Fire: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 2) = 9

If I'm attacked by Vector again I'll throw up another Force Sphere.

Also, I specifically said that if Vector attacked me, I would use Emergency Force Sphere as an immediate.

David's only taken 21 damage, due to DR 5. 126/147.

Move action consume my last 6th level spell slot for 6 points of reservoir, bringing me up to 9. Let Steven do his thing, then standard action spend 6 to cast Summon Monster VI to bring back David the Flaming Triceratops (dismissing Steven) next to Luna, facing Vector. Then Powerful Charge.

Steven Bite: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 25
Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37
Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (5) + 20 = 25
Bite Damage: 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (1, 4) + 10 = 15
Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (2, 3) + 10 = 15
Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (2, 2) + 10 = 14

David Powerful Charge, Power Attack: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20
Charge Damage: 4d10 + 25 ⇒ (10, 8, 7, 3) + 25 = 53 + Fire Damage: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1) = 6

In the event Luna is attacked by Vector, or attacked by an acolyte after being brought below 40 hp, she will cast Emergency Force Sphere as an immediate action.

"Alright, enough of this," Luna grunts in irritation. She points at the undamaged Acolyte, electricity coursing through her body once more, empowering and charging up her spell, and snaps her fingers.

Dismissal on Acolyte A, spending an Elemental Might to automatically succeed at my spell resistance check, spending a point of arcane reservoir to bump the DC. Will DC 21 or be sent away from this plane since it's clearly not yours, with a 20% chance to get tossed into a random one instead of home turf.

Steven does Steven things.

Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (11) + 20 = 31
Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
Steven Bite: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 20 = 23
Grabs: 3d20 ⇒ (8, 16, 17) = 41 +23 each
Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (1, 1) + 10 = 12 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3
Second Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (3, 4) + 10 = 17 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
Bite Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 5) + 8 = 16 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5

Chains of Light isn't affected by spell resistance. Conjuration OP.

Luna focuses her energy, then points at the nearest acolyte, sending glowing chains of light in his direction.

Move action consume a 5th level spell slot to regain 5 reservoir points. Standard action cast chains of light on the nearest acolyte, spending a reservoir point to boost the DC. DC 23 Reflex save or be paralyzed.

Meanwhile, Steven, who is very confused as to the time shift, nonetheless follows Luna's shouted instruction to maul.

Steven full attacks the acolyte next to him.

Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (18) + 20 = 38
Steven Claw: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
Steven Bite: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (19) + 20 = 39
Grabs: 3d20 ⇒ (7, 4, 20) = 31 +23 each
Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (4, 3) + 10 = 17 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3
Second Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (1, 1) + 10 = 12 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8
Bite Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 2) + 8 = 13 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
Dire tigers have improved critical on their bite attack
Bite Confirmation: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (6) + 20 = 26
Bite Crit Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 4) + 8 = 15

Ooookay, from the way it was worded I thought him making the save triggered some healing ability. I feel marginally less bad now.

Don't worry about it Tarondor. I would be the most hypocritical person on the planet to criticize someone for taking the time they need on a game. Whatever pace you can manage comfortably is fine by me.

In other news, is this real life? Do we really live in a world where instead of dealing 47 damage I accidentally healed him 2 somehow?

"Summons are pointless, got it," Luna mutters. "Let's try something else then." She takes a single step and with it disappears in a flash of light, reappearing on the opposite side of Vector and a fair bit away. With a flick of her wrist, a number of frozen spears erupt from the ground beneath Vector's feet.

Spending one point of reservoir to dimension slide to my current position, does not provoke. Ice Spears, spending a point of reservoir to bump my DC by 1. The spears are going in the upper right, lower right, and lower left squares that he occupies.

Cold Damage: 6d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 4, 2, 1, 4) = 19 + Piercing Damage: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 6, 3, 6, 2) = 28
Trip: 1d20 + 37 ⇒ (14) + 37 = 51
DC 20 Reflex halves damage and negates the trip

Steven's AC is 17, and he's now at 73/133 (he has DR 5/-)

Luna Will: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34
Steven Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

As a Lawful character, I am immune to Order's Wrath.

Luna feels her body slowing, but a sudden burst of electricity through her body give her the speed to counteract it. With a snap of her fingers, she accelerates the entire party. Then, taking a step back, she cannibalizes some of the magic in her body, using it to fuel a summoning spell that materializes a massive tiger, its body crackling with electricity and defying the laws of gravity, which charges Vector above the rest of the party.

So in order, spending a point of elemental might on an extra standard action this turn. First action haste the party, countering the slow on anyone who has it. 5' step back, move action Consume a 3rd level spell slot for 3 arcane reservoir points, standard action Summon Monster VI to summon an aerial dire tiger. His name is Steven.

Steven Claw: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (4) + 22 = 26
Steven Claw: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (20) + 22 = 42
Steven Bite: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (6) + 22 = 28
Steven Rake: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (4) + 22 = 26
Steven Rake: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (17) + 22 = 39
Grabs: 3d20 ⇒ (16, 13, 9) = 38 +25 each
Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (4, 1) + 10 = 15 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7
Second Claw Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (4, 3) + 10 = 17 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
Bite Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 5) + 8 = 16 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10
Rake Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (3, 1) + 10 = 14 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7
Second Rake Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (2, 3) + 10 = 15 + Electricity Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8

Second Claw Confirmation: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (8) + 22 = 30
Second Claw Crit Damage: 2d4 + 10 ⇒ (2, 3) + 10 = 15

Slow: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19
Exhausted: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (16) + 23 = 39

"What you say can be said of every action," Luna responds to "Westyr" as much to distract her as to engage her. "Every action has unintended consequences, from the smallest flap of a butterfly's wings to the most destructive spells of the most powerful sorcerer. Identify yourself, simulacrum, and explain your concerns, and we may pay them more heed than vague, ominous warnings."

"This probably calls for something a bit more explosive, yes. By all means, Wynn, go right ahead."

"Much as I would love to consider all the possible benefits of a wish such as this, I would agree, ensuring the success of our mission is the most efficient use."

The Coup de Grace full round action allows an automatic crit on a helpless target, such as one that is paralyzed, and forces a Fort save against DC 10+the damage dealt or instantly kills the target. That's not an optional rule, it's in the core rulebook -_-

"You lot clearly don't know a handled situation when you see it," Luna mutters. With a snap of her fingers, a hideous devil carrying a wicked looking glaive and sporting a grotesque beard appears next to the dragon. With a smooth movement that comes almost the second it appears, it swings its glaive down at the dragon's neck.

Standard action SM5 SLA, summon a bearded devil.
The bearded devil performs a coup de grace.

Coup: 3d10 + 36 ⇒ (6, 3, 6) + 36 = 51

Take 51 damage and a DC 61 Fort save or die

So everyone knows and on the off chance that in the midst of my move next week I miss it, my next turn is going to be using my standard action summon to conjure a bearded devil and coup de grace the dragon at 3d10+18.

Luna flips through her spellbook quickly to find the spell she needs and raises her hand towards the dragon, prepared to cast at him.

Move action Quick Study, swapping SM6 for Chains of Light. Readied action to cast Chains of Light at the dragon when he comes into range (50 feet), spending 1 point of reservoir to increase the reflex DC to 26

Luna points her staff at the one of the cinderghosts, unleashing a volley of energy bolts at it.

Magic Missile: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 4, 2) + 5 = 18 force.

As a d20 does not have a 39 face, I too cannot make it.

"Nonsense dear," Luna comments. "The sacks of meat are doing as sacks of meat do. We must in turn do what we're supposed to do, prepare to unload hell on whatever takes the bait."

Eh, I'd rather fight a dragon.

Merry Christmas, Happy (late) Hannukah and blessed Yule.

Luna is signed up for Academy of Secrets mid-January as well.

"In a pinch I can conjure more flying creatures as well, although they won't last long in this heat if I grant them the power of flight."

"There was another passage to explore. It may hold another machine, or possibly a way up to the dragon."

Reticulus reemerges from Luna's satchel and hovers over the Distillation Capatitor, assisting Luna as she fiddles with its workings.

"We're doing fine, Alie," Luna calls back to the blind girl. "Just another repair job."

Once more, due to the bonuses from reading Ignan, making the knowledge check and an aid another, this time from Reticulus, I make the Alchemy DC on a natural 1.

With the bonus from reading Ignan, the bonus from the briefing knowledge check and the aid of either Alie or my familiar I have a +29 (+31 with both aids) to the Arcana check, so I can't fail.

With Alie's assistance, Luna is able to casually and effortlessly recalibrate the device.

Luna sighs. "Honestly, there's at least one hall we could try going down first."

"Let's go," Luna nods. "Be mindful of its breath, umbral dragons breath negative energy."

What check to figure out how to get the efreet out?

Knowledge (arcana) about dragons: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (19) + 23 = 42

By the rules of PFS my previous experiences with creatures don't carry over unless I identify them again.

"I've dealt with your kind before, efreet," Luna frowns. "Deceivers, the lot of you, but my experience is that there's a grain of honor in there." She turns to the others. "I believe, if we offer the fair exchange of his freedom for his three wishes, he won't try to pull one over on us. Just in case, though, we should carefully consider the wording of whatever it is we ask for."

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (14) + 23 = 37

If anyone needs me I'm just gonna go kill myself kthx.

A small cloud of glowing orbs and flashing blades emerges from a satchel at Luna's back. Luna looks down at the harbinger archon in annoyance. "Oh? I see you've decided to join us then, Reticlus? Very well, give me a hand."

Reticulus automatically aids another. Assuming all of these aid anothers count regardless of check used, that's 23 base, 6 from aid another, and 2 from speaking Ignan on Knowledge (arcana).

Knowledge (arcana): 1d20 + 23 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 23 + 6 + 2 = 34

I will use my reroll with three stars.

Knowledge (arcana): 1d20 + 23 + 6 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 23 + 6 + 2 + 3 = 35

"Unfortunately while I have a wide range of skills, mechanics are not among them."

Player Name: Nathan R./FedoraFerret
Character Name: Luna Solerra
PFS Number: 139854-3
Faction: Exchange
Day Job Roll: Craft (alchemy): 1d20 + 23 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 23 + 5 + 2 = 36

+5 from Exchange faction card, +2 from an alchemy lab.

"I'm afraid my area of elemental expertise leans more into ice than fire," Luna comments. "A small elemental creature may do though." Experimentally, Luna creates a small fire elemental in the basin.

It's all of two arcane reservoir points, so we'll see how this goes. I'll also eat a 6th level spell slot here.

Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 1

Luna is bored.

Luna hangs out near the back, observing her surroundings and taking extensive notes as she floats along.

Casting Summon Monster VI as a spell rather than using my summon ability.

Summons: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

With a great deal of concentrated effort, Luna conjures three silver haired creatures with the appearance of elven archers. As one, they move in time with Luna's commands, giving their healing magic to the two injured party members.

Rurik heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (1, 5, 3) + 7 = 16
Rurik heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (2, 7, 4) + 7 = 20
Rurik heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (6, 1, 5) + 7 = 19

Dora heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (7, 5, 3) + 7 = 22
Dora heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (1, 5, 8) + 7 = 21
Dora heals: 3d8 + 7 ⇒ (3, 3, 2) + 7 = 15

"Unfortunately I have no cures for blindness. The best I could offer would be something for you to ride on, but that would leave me hampered in a real fight."

For the record, this is a neat trick you can run on any good summon focused character. Summon Monster 6 with Superior Summons will give you 1d3+1 Bralani Azatas who can cast Cure Serious Wounds twice each four an average 20 healed per cast. Average on 1d3+1 is 3, times two casts each is 6, times 20 healed is 120 hp which, at the level you get SM 6, is roughly competitive with Heal although less consistent.

Luna lets out a breath of relief.

"Well, that was trying, and I wasn't even on the receiving end of any of it. Dora, Rurik, I assume you'll be wanting healing. I can supply a number of Azatas who can potentially do the trick if we'd prefer not to sit around smacking one another with wands all day.

Through her cough, Luna twirls her hand, and a cloud of sparkling dust covers Sakrisa's body and threatens to get into his eyes.

Glitterdust, DC 21 Will save and he's now fabulous.
