Who has the potions of haste? I would like one if possible.

Marianne stops, "We should apply that to arrows and split it between those with ranged weapons." Once this has been done she opens the doors.

Marianne heads up the stairs and carefully examines the doors there before opening them.

Taking 20 on perception and giving everyone a chance to gather around before opening the doors.

Marianne moves forward stepping around the grisly remains and tries the western door.

Dwindling back down Marianne stabs out at the zombie before her.

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Dwindling down back away from the carrion golem Marianne steps back, then enlarges herself again striking out at the disgusting creature again and driving her spear through its putrid flesh!

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26 Damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 6) + 7 = 19
Crit Conf: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

NP, I swear I knew you were at Disney. Have fun :)

Having cast light upon her spear to illuminate their passage Marianne enlarges rushes into the center of the room and enlarges herself stabbing out at the different looking undead.

Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14 Damage: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (1, 2) + 7 + 1 = 11

Marianne will cast Guidance and lend him her Wayfinder which should give an additional +2 vs getting lost.

Survival Aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Marianne nods, "We likely need it after that fight anyway, very well let's rest. You take first watch Fastenhyme, then Izoki, Loenor, Arovandeon, then me, two hours each ought to give us enough time."

Marianne inspects the potions sniffing them first and then handing them off to others with a shrug, "Anyone make out what they are?"

As the sunsets she scowls, "Can we afford to rest?"

Perception 1: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
Perception 2: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

"I can create water you know, best not to drink that, it could have been tainted by that thing or its kills - I expect it used the oasis as a lure," Marianne advises.

Marianne sighs, "What does it matter our only response would be to go as fast as we can and we are already doing that. Just kill these beasts, we know they are slavers and prey upon travelers and then let's get on our way."

"Desna is a goddess of dreams and travelers, not nightmares, and I would call that monster the later. Thankfully she is on our side or things could have easily gone much worse!"

She moves over and searches the gnolls bodies for anything they can use.

Sighing in relief Marianne gathers everyone to her, ensuring all are close enough to be effected by her channeling, "Desna give us succour in this barren land, lay aside our wounds and grant us the strength to endure."

She then uses tow of her spells and a wand charge to heal herself, before turning to Rapunzel and Loenor and using three wand charges up each.

[ooc]Marianne is back to full. Heal 16 for Rapunzel and 19 for Loenor.

Channel Energy: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Cure Light Wounds Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Cure Light Wounds Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Nodding her thanks to Arovandeon Marianne rushes forward and stabs at the gnoll engaged with her companions.

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18 Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Marianne waits for the gnolls to act before she does delaying. Then she steps out enlarges herself and plunges her spear into the bizarre starfish thing,

"We need to kill this thing or its going to rip Rapunzel to shreds! Fastenhyme can you make a sand golem to take care of the gnolls? Everyone else we need to kill that thing ignore the dogs."

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22 Damage: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4, 4) + 7 + 1 = 16

"All I know is it needs to know no means no!" Marianne grumbles, bleeding onto the sand.

Oh, I see I went out of turn, sorry saw the init chart again and assumed we were up again.

Screaming in pain Marianne dwindles down and wrenches free of the bizarre beast staggering away risking being hit again to distance herself from the torrent of tentacles.

And hope like buggery that AoO does not land.

Break Grapple: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

As the spear clatter off her armor Marianne moves forward and calls upon Desna to keep her great height. She then stabs out at the nearest gnoll driving her spear deep into the beast's side.

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 Damage: 2d6 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (2, 2) + 7 + 1 = 12

Marianne rushes forward calling upon Desna's nurturing power to grow to a towering nine feet tall her longspear ready to meet the gnolls.

Map is still for the old combat, are we using one? Not sure if we are supposed to act yet though it looks like Init has been rolled?

Marianne shakes her head, "If something invisible is there we should be able to see its outline.."

She casts create water from some twenty five feet away creating a downpour over the spot and watching to see if anything is outlined by the "rain".

Marianne also offers to lend Izoki her Wayfinder so he can prevent them from getting lost more easily.

Marianne shakes her head, "I'll cast guidance whenever anyone is thinking about our best course and aid as best I can. I am not paying hundreds for a mount for a one time use though. I'll cast endure elements on everybody before we set out. And of course I have create water prepared."

Survival Aid: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

@Izoki yes its probably worth it gunslingers do not usually miss a lot as a rule, just wanted to give you the heads up as it was a nasty surprise for me.

Ah, I see, makes sense. I vote high Momma needs a magic weapon!

Higher would be my preference, but I do not believe we get a choice.

Starting with Season 4... A party of five to seven characters whose APL is between two subtiers must play the higher tier with the four character adjustment.

Izoki be aware that your 3rd level free Rapid Reload feat is only valid for the musket, not the double barrelled musket. Its a reasonable houserule to allow it, but in PFS it is sadly not allowed. I have a musket master to and was distressed to learn this.

Musket Master Rapid Reload Thread

Marianne asks the grateful family whose babe she has just delivered while she cleans herself off, and is lucky enough to discover the husband a trader is quite knowledgeable.

"I have a wand of endure elements that will protect us all from the heat, we should take the fastest route if anyone thinks they have the skill to guide us."

Diplomacy GI: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

I believe we will be continuing in this thread and this is a quick break to let everyone update their characters. Marianne is ready to go BTW.

+1 none issue :) Also Marianne already had a Wand of Endure Elements she picked up during the Shades of Ice series, and after getting that boon that essentially gives you Endure Elements cold it will be good to get a chance to use it - after reading the short blurb for part 2.

Am I correct in believing that I can upgrade my MW Agile Breastplate to +1 for 1000gp? Due to it being always available, etc. Might spring for a Shining Wayfinder to, since its a great deal for Shining Crusaders.

Excellent, now I just need to figure out what to spend that money on! Can I assume we are playing up for the next one?

Excellent, delighted to hear it! And that explains how tough that sandman was!

Were we playing in the 4-5 sub tier? My chronicle lists out of tier gold which I am not entirely sure I am entitled to? I admit to being a bit muddled about the subtiers thing and certainly hope the higher than expected amount is correct!

"I am not happy to be doing your dirty work, but I suppose I cannot say you have not kept your word to us." Marianne concedes grudgingly.

As she turns to leave she pauses, "I assume your wounds are beyond normral healing magic? You do not seem to be lacking in resources. If not I offer my services Desna would not wish you left it pain if it can be helped."

Oh, was not expecting the end there thought there would be a final encounter like Firs Steps, but I guess we did do quite a lot. Thanks GM Tektite!

Day Job Profession Midwife: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21

Viagra Lover? Vile Leper? Velure Lover? Vogon Limerick?

"If this ring is really that valuable should we be handing it over to Torch? We have done what he asked for without giving him the ring right? I am not sure our mission justifies giving up such a potentially valuable item."

"Excellent, Grand Master Torch will be in contact, no hard feeling, but just in case you change your mind on our way out..." Marianne cracks the butt of her spear over Zelekahti's head knocking her out, ensuring all valuables have been removed from the woman's person.

"Let's get back to Torch and put this sordid business behind us. She may have deserved it, but I have no stomach for this kind of double dealing."

Just noticed that Destiny of Sands part III is a 3-7, which means we would need to run another scenario or apply credit for those who started fresh in Shades of Ice I. I can probably find some credit somewhere to use on Marianne is this an issue for anyone though?

Marianne takes the magic items from the bound woman handing them over to Arovandeon to identify and after another quick spell saying, "Very well tell us what you currently consider the most notable secrets you have uncovered and we will pass them on. In my opinion your best bet is to impress Grand Master Torch and earn his favor right now, so the better you information the better your chances."

Diplomacy?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Marianne getting fed up of getting nowhere talking casts detect magic and gives the Madam a rough but thorough search, "Let's see if you had any other magical baubles for snooping."

Taking 20 on Perception for a 22.

We have not rested.

Marianne shakes her head, casts a quick spell for guidance and snarls, "Fine, we're going to knock you out again and take this ring to Grandmaster Torch. You want it back you go see him and agree to work for him, I would not advise trying to take him on you would die. Or you can share your information and swear to work for Torch now. Anyone got any objections to that plan?"

Intimidate: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Marianne nods, "We would really prefer to do this in a reasonable fashion, you can still be sensible here. Whether you really know who Grandmaster Torch is or not, trust me that he is an information broker in a far bigger league than your own, you would do well to ally yourself with him and that is still an option."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Muttering to herself Marianne hurriedly kneels besides the downed half elf and stems her wounds. "Well that did not go quite as planned, what do we do now? And who needs healing? Thank you for the wake up by the way Izoki, I shall try not to sleep on the job again!"

Taking 10 on Heal for a 16.

Marianne rises groggily taking in the scene around her enlarging herself and thrusting her spear into the sandman.

Longspear: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22 Damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 3) + 7 = 16

"No, don't they are my muffins... ZzzzzzZzzzzzz," Marianne mumbles, rolling over and attempting to make herself comfortable on the floor as she sleeps.

As the Madam begins to cast Marianne sinks her longspear into her side inflicting a terrible wound. Then she staggers yawning hugely as she dwindles back to normal size and falls asleep.

She provokes and is within range of Marianne's Longspear hit AC 24 for 12 damage.

Will: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Marianne moves pulling her longspear free and breaking the peacebond from it as she enlarges herself.
