Thanks for running the game!

Hustling around the greasy goo, Malachite stops adjacent to the taer who is caught in the slippery stuff. He gives a straight-arm punch to the beast-like humanoid, putting as much power behind the blow as he can muster.

Mal unarmed vs Yellow, PA: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 5 - 1 = 17
Dmg, PA, bleed: 1d8 + 4 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 4 + (2) = 10

Malachite tries to drop the taer that has matched up with him quickly so he can aid Odo who is quite outnumbered. His feet and hands move quickly, throwing a flurry of blows.

flurry 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
flurry 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
flurry 3: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Flurry 2, dmg, if hit, bleed: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 2 + (2) = 8
Flurry 3, dmg if hit, bleed: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (6) + 2 + (3) = 11

I am traveling rest of this weekend and may not get to post. Bot me with unarmed strikes etc until combat ends. Will peek in if i get the chance.

Thanks!

Are squares still 15' each? If so, I moved Malachite for his double move.

Seeing the taer assault the small outpost, Malachite moves into action running, as fast as his rocky form allows, towards the invaders.

Using a full-round action, so we'll see what happens to the sled next round. If it's still a threat, maybe. was trying to hit the non-driver this round.

As the purple sled comes alongside, Malachite attacks the rider with a flurry of unarmed strikes, using both an closed fist and a well-placed kick. The rocky skin of the Oread causes any hits to begin bleeding on the target.

Use flurry of blows, unarmed, as full-round action. Expend a ki-point to add a third attack during this flurry.

Unarmed flurry 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
unarmed flurry 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Unarmed flurry 3: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Flurry 1 dmg, belier's bite: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (8) + 2 + (4) = 14
Flurry 2 dmg, belier's bite: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (6) + 2 + (3) = 11
Flurry 3 dmg, belier's bite: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (7) + 2 + (1) = 10

Probably two hits there. If that drops the guy, Malachite will attempt to dislodge him from the sled so he can perhaps get over onto it next round. We'll see.

The Purple sled appears to be adjacent to us. Can i make a melee attack against them? Is there a penalty? How about jumping over onto their sled?

I am fine delaying.

Shrugging, Malachite does as Yarricki asks, and deposits the eggs back in the snow.

Malachite doesn't have time to return the eggs once the bones are freed, he just gathers the relics together as gently as he can and slides them in his pack next to the lizard eggs. He leaps on the back of the sled as it starts moving, using his hard-rocky body to shield the driver, Odo from any wayward spears.

Malachite rushes back to the shrine and continues to carefully chip away at the ice to free the bones without damaging them. When free, he wraps them in a blanket, and lays them in his pack next to the remorraz eggs.

Whew. I was worried

Do you think we will be able to defeat this creature? Malachite has its eggs in his pack right now. I can try to give them up instead, if you think that an effective approach.

The javelin being his only ranged attack, Malachite takes out his last one, wondering if the group isn't better off to try to out run this terrible beast. Shrugging, he launches the second javelin, hoping for a better result than the first.

Mal javelin throw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Not my day for ranged attacks, I guess.

Malachite advances and when he gets reasonably close, he launches his javelin at the big centipede, but misses quite badly.

Malachite javelin, into melee: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 - 4 = 4

Mal knows there is not enough time to work the bones out of the ice while a fight rages. He grabs his javelin and moves across the ice towards the many-legged creature.

move to pick up javelin, and move to advance 20' as indicated on the map.

What needs to be done to get the bones and leave the eggs? What kind of action and how much time? Malachite worked on it all last round at least, if not before.

Malachite will gladly accept a Shield spell. He readies a javelin while still trying to free the bones they came for.

"I suggest we take it all back with us for the Pathfinders to study in greater detail." Using greatest care, Malachite begins to pack the eggs, bones, and blankets together into his satchel with the idea of bringing it all down the mountain.

Malachite moves laterally, trying to drive off the last of the bestial taer.

Mal unarmed strike: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Dmg, bleed: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 2 + (2) = 8

Malachite is unfazed by the stench of the ape-like taer, and having struck one last round, he unleashes a flurry of blow against the same target. "I warned them not to attack us. Guess we'll have to finish what they started."

Malachite DC 13 Fort: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Unarmed flurry 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Unarmed flurry 2: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Dmg 1, if hit, bleed: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (2) + 2 + (1) = 5
Dmg 2, if hit, bleed: 1d8 + 2 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 2 + (2) = 8

Do Flurry of Blows as Full-Round action. 13 dmg if both hit.

Nodding to Odo at his side, Malachite doesn't want to provoke the first blood in this fight, but will defend himself if the taer insist on a scuffle. He holds his hands up, palms out in the universal symbol of peace, no weapon. "We don't want a fight, just to be on our way," he says, flatly without much behind it.

He readies an action to strike any that come within melee range.
11 hp dmg with fist and bleed if hit.

Malachite Diplomacy: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (8) - 1 = 7
Malachite readied attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Dmg, if hit: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Bleed dmg from ragged skin, if hit: 1d4 ⇒ 3

Just a heads up -- I will be leaving for Spring Break/campus tours with the family tomorrow AM. Travel may keep me from posting during the trip, but if I get the chance, I may be able to sneak one or two in.

We return Saturday evening, but with Easter on Sunday, I may not be fully back in the saddle until Monday.

Feel free to bot Malachite as necessary.

Malachite moves to follow the others, making no hostile moves and keeping his hands clearly visible.

Move around with the others, but with a readied attack if any of the foes attack first and are within melee range.

Worried about the crossing of the frozen lake, Malachite spies something in the snow. Moving over, he shows the group dozens of barefoot humanoid footprints along the path. Many are quickly being filled with fresh snowfall, but Mal believes they are evidence of the Taer ahead of them.

"We should be quite careful for an ambush, especially on the ice of the lake," he tells the others over the whistling sound of the wind.

Malachite will be especially wary, looking for likely ambush sites or traps, at least as much as the cold fog allows.

Malachite perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

Malachite nods with Yarricki's assessment of the cause of the snowfall. "I saw something up there also though the altitude is really starting wear on me. Glad I have spent most of this trip riding."

Malachite holds on to the sled for dear life, as the halfling urges the dogs forward at faster speed to get out of the path of the falling snow. "Hurry, boys, hurry!:" he calls urgently.

Fort save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

Malachite is concerned about the Aspis token present in the grave site. "I fear that means our enemies are already ahead of us, treating the locals poorly. We need to make haste but carefully, for the snakes may be laying an ambush for us."

He continues looking about for any signs of the Aspis agents or their presence.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25

Malachite also notices the blood trail but as the others have pointed it out, he remains silent, watching to see if there is any tracker in the group. He puts a steadying hand on Yarricki's shoulder trying to reassure the sick gnome. Malachite tries to backtrack the blood trail to see if there is anything interesting at the other end.

Fort: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Surival to follow blood trail: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Perception DC 10 is auto-success for the big guy.

"I am willing to venture it if you feel good about your ability to drive the dogs." says Malachite. "It may be that we get a quicker path to the top that way."

When the sled starts up the slope, Malachite does not expect the effects of altitude to hit the group so quickly. He tries his best to breath normally, but its a struggle.

When they reach the ice bridge, he looks at it with a frown. "Now that just looks dangerous..."

Mal Fort: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Can there be any aid from the passengerrs? Like ' look out for that boulder'? If so, I'll attempt to aid the check that is lowest here, if not, I understand completely.

Startled by the near miss on the drop off in the fog, Malachite pats Odo on the shoulder. "Well done, partner. That fall would've been a serious problem for all of us. That fog is deadly."

As they move up into the flat area with boulders, Malachite tries to keep a sharp eye out, calling to Odo to turn when he sees an oncoming obstacle. Whether that's a help or any annoyance remains to be determined.

Aid, Handle Animal, if allowed: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (19) - 1 = 18

If he agrees, Raimdol offered a wand charge for Malachite of Endure Elements. Unless provided, Mal will buy a tent and food. Don't need any unusual supplies.

Malachite gets on the back of the dogsled driven by Odo, unsure that this method of transportation is particularly safe, but if it's the fastest way to the top, then so be it. He can't help but laugh as Raimdol is bounced around roughly by the running axebeak.

Mal will accept protection from the elements if it is offered. He nods a silent thanks to the half-elf once it is in place.

Malachite looks at the little gnome with a frown. "Hate to break you from your pet, but none of us get to the top if you don't drive the sledge. I think it has to be that way. Odo can steer the other one, and then someone has to ride the pet." He looks over his large stony frame, and states the obvious. "That ain't gonna be me."

Malachite will help load the gear onto the sleigh's but he isn't much help being overly garrulous with the populace.

I think I' have better luck riding Thunder than drivings, so hopefully someone else is better statted than I to be the driver.

How many sleds, and therefore drivers, do we need? And who has talent in Handle Animal to be a good driver? Malachite is a -1 untrained at HA, and would make a better rider than driver as a result.

Malachite proves during practice runs that driving a sled is not his skill. He quickly finds he makes better ballast than steerage. He looks to the others to see if any of them have any better luck with the sleds. Otherwise this might be a very difficult trip...

Glad to be out of the bitter cold, Malachite ducks into the shelter offered by Rysam.

Malachite frowns at the thought of riding a sleigh pulled by dogs up the mountainside. "I have no experience with either dogs or sleighs. You don't find such underground, but perhaps my colleagues will be able to handle the beasts and the transportation?"

Know Local DC 10 (untrained): 1d20 ⇒ 9

Avatar image is fine for Mal, and his info on your worksheet looks correct.

The hard-skinned oread smiles as he hears the group will be taking on a mountainous expedition. He reassures the mysterious Osprey in a gravely voice, "We shall return with the bones of the mystic, as instructed. The mountains are a second home to me, and I look forward to spending time there."

Now with the witnry wind biting his exposed flesh and snow drifts slowing his progress, Malachite begins to rue his proud words...Even his craggy skin is vulnerable to this cold, and it certainly is uncomfortable.

An oread, with skin made like jagged stone, stands silently watching the others gather. When he speaks, his voice is gravely and his words are sharp and to the point. "I am Malachite. Well met."

Day Job Roll: none

Malachite is an oread monk of the sacred mountain archetype which gives him some unusual abilities. At level 5, he gained immunity to all diseases. He also has some stances which give him different abilities if he starts and ends his turn in the same space.

I will come up with bot actions as you suggest, but should usually be able to post once/day unless I provide other notice.

Malachite stands mutely by, stoically watching the action unfold, but keeping his own counsel for now, as he is wont to do.

Malachite searches the fallen ninjas atop the roof before dropping back down to the ground with the rest.

Malachite, who is used to climbing in the caverns of his youth, scrambles up the stone wall with no difficulty. He stands at the top, ready for action in the next round.

Climb: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Climb: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

At 30ft foot speed, Mal has a 8 ft climb speed. With a double move he is at the top of the wall.

I had asked if there were any way on the rooftop so I could engage teh last ninja in melee. Is it possible to get there from the adjacent stairs?

Seeing the others start to pepper the lone assassin with arrows, Malachite moves forward as quickly as he can, trying to get behind the ninja before it can retreat to safety. He makes it about half-way up the stairs, then looks for a means to get on the roof.

Double move. Not sure how, if possible, to get within melee or subdual damage of this remaining foe.

After Sifvery fires at the Green Ninja, Mal closes with him, rapidly scraping his rocky and jagged flesh along the skin of the ninja in a flurry of unarmed blows, causing any wounds to bleed after the initial injury.

Mal unarmed flurry: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Mal unarmed flurry: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Dmg 1, bleeding attack: 1d8 + 3 + 1d4 ⇒ (8) + 3 + (4) = 15
Dmg 2, bleeding attack, if hit: 1d8 + 3 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (2) = 9

5' step to close with green ninja, attack with flurry. Bleeding attack causes extra damage if hit by unarmed strike

Seeing the ninja's fell the Samsaran man who he assumes is the venerable one they are here to see, Malachite reacts with force against the interlopers. Rushing forward against those on the ground, he pulls his javelin from its mooring on his back and launches it at one of the ninjas.

Mal javelin: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Targeting the more aqua green/blue oulined foe.
