Mossri Lillibottom's page

This is Aest's second submission. She's an unchained rogue with the Vexing Dodger archetype for Shadow of the Colossus shenanigans. I'll be going with one level of Swashbuckler with the Mouser archetype and then the prestige class Halfling Opportunist for even more fun!

In terms of story, she's a former arena fighter from Tymon who, after being caught cheating, ran to Restov. See the alias for more details.

Of the two, this is the one I'd want to play more, just because the combats have so much potential to be interesting and unique.

Good luck to all!

GM Dragon, would you kindly label me and Aestereal as "inactive" in the campaign info tab? Thanks.

"Nope. Crossbow. Just shoots bolts. Besides, won't fit it." Mossri continues to poke around the room, too preoccupied with her search to bother answering in full sentences.

Thanks for the catch. New character sheet problems, you know. I'll just go ahead and have both.

Mossri rolls her eyes at the byplay between Maidie and Dart.

Mossri the cleric, who had always been a cleric, and certainly never one of those foolish bards, waves as her new-found friends left. She looks at Rig, Dart, and Maidie, shrugs, and begins examining the tomb. "Come on, everyone. In the name of Chaldira Zuzaristan, I shall purge this tomb of the evil within, and then we'll get the everflame, and everyone in the village will love us." She looks around, sniffing the air and searching for exits or useful items.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Alright, incoming character rebuild.

Okay. We lost Khadon and Tigeara, so we're short on healing, with every other role covered. If you'd like, I can rebuild Mossri into a cleric (I think it might be better, both for the party and for me).

Is this game dead, then?

If the GM allows retraining, I can rebuild into a cleric. It'd require some stat adjustments, but I could move stuff around and make it work. Depends on the GM's opinion. I think 4 would be fine, but we can also recruit if you'd like.

Yeah, this has kind of jammed up here, I can't really do much from where I am except continue trying to aid another. I don't want to burn all my performances and I can't really damage the skeletons. If anyone has a better option, I'll trade spaces with you and start shooting at them. If not, I guess I'll keep aiding Rig.

Aid Another (Attack Roll): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Or not...

:(

"Sorry to see yas go, Khad! Do what ya gotsta do, though."

Mossri doesn't see any other real options, and thrusts at the skeleton in front of Rigs, trying to break its guard for the gnome.

Aid Another: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Mossri has reach, so she's still capable of attacking. She stepped into the spot vacate by Rigs when he moved.I'm not sure what happened to Dart, but Tigeara should still be around; he's pretty active on the recruitment boards.

Mossri delays until a front-liner moves up, then steps into the vacant spot to jab with her spear, this time trying to draw blood...er, something! She also stops dancing.

Attack!: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Mossr, seeing that Dart is now safe, waves her spear menacingly in front of Khadon.

Aid Another: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

The skeletons don't seem to be impressed with her poking, though. She continues showing off her dance moves.

Continuing Inspire Courage

It was. I thought that if the skeletons were acting, we were back to the top of the initiative count. Sorry.

Skeletons went, that means it's Mossri's turn, right?

Mossri. seeing that Dart is now safe, waves her spear menacingly in front of Khadon.

Aid Another: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Aid Another, +4 to AC. Have fun and don't die.

Nice map! Thanks.

I could make a quick mock-up of the encounter and post a link, if you'd like, DM Dragon. I downloaded the adventure for the mentor backgrounds, but I've been hesitant to actually read through the whole thing.

I usually use GoogleDocs, which I think you can download as an app. You could use a well-sized spreadsheet for a map, and it's possible to make it editable by us so we could move our characters instead of you having to do it all. I'm not sure about more legitimate programs myself.

I think you could just go and GM Dragon could sort it out after, but I'm not sure.

Mossri gets her dance moves on, twirling and pirouetting. She takes no other moves.

Inspire Courage, +1 to attack and damage, +1 morale vs. charm and fear 1/8 rounds used. No reason to move up, since I don't get an attack this round. The skeletons will come to us anyways.

Popping in to say hi. I'm back, in case you were waiting on me for some reason.

Just as a heads-up, I'll be visiting my grandparents over the next five days, and I might not be able to post even remotely consistently. Please run my character as an NPC if you need to in order to keep the action moving. She's pretty simple. Just aid another all the time and inspire courage or whatever on the hard-looking fights.

Mossri adds her pack to the pile, taking her tambourine and weapons. She stands slightly behind Khadon, longspear at the ready.

"Isn't...isn't this supposed to be some kind of a...game? Like, 'send tha brave heroes to gather tha Flame' or something, a tradition? Somehow, I don't think this is tha way it was supposed to be..."

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Mossri sits back in the cave and relaxes for a moment before curiosity draws her to Maidie's alchemy. "What's that you're workin' on? Could you show me what you're doing?"

Are we aiding another again?

Aid Another (Survival): 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0

I suppose these things happen...

"That's true, Rig! Lemme see if I can remember how far wolves usually range..."

Knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Don't worry guys, I don't know anything!

"I know I don't gots the size to use the sword. If someone else wants it, they can have it." Mossri grabs one of the coins. She states at it for a while, hoping one of the stories she heard at the Seven Silvers will come to her head, telling her more about the person or the place.

Knowledge (local) for Tamran: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Knowledge (nobility) for Forest Marshal Gavirk: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

I could do that. Mossri is always interested in helping!

Mossri tries to see what the dark form is!

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Aid Another (Survival): 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (15) - 1 = 14

Aid Another totally stacks, as long as it's from different sources. +8 so far!

Mossri helps Rig with the map, nearly fighting Tigeara and Khadon for space around it.

Mossri passes the watch on to the next person in line, thankful to be back in her tent. Once there, she tosses and turns for a while, thinking about the gigantic wolf. Finally, she falls into a normal state of sleep. She doesn't think at all about the thing's pelt; it probably weighs more than she does anyway.

Good to know, thanks for the heads-up.

"Jocyn must've lied to me, this was supposed to happen later! I'll never forgive him for this!"

Mossri rushes toward the massive wolf, brandishing her spear in one hand and reaching for her tambourine with the other. As she does, she begins dancing, banging the tambourine against her thigh in time with the rhythmic turns.

Move action to move toward the dire wolf, standard to start inspire courage dance (next round, everyone gets +1 vs. charm and fear and +1 on weapon and damage rolls. (Sorry Khadon!))

EDIT: Also, hoping the noise I'm making will wake up the party.

As Maidie wakes Mossri up, the halfling rolls over and tries to avoid the duty. "don' wanna. Five more minutes, Maidie, please..." After some convincing, she gets up and awakens Khadon to sit with her.

DO I SEE IT?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Mossri doesn't notice whatever it is she's supposed to.

"Sure, Khad. Nothin's gonna happen, just like in tha stories. It's always tha second-t'-last watch that's attacked by wolves or ghosts, or has tha stranger walk inta camp. Hope it's tha last for you, Rig! I'll humor ya, though."

Mossri also heads off to bed, leaving Maidie to watch.

It's not a problem for me, Khadon. Mossri's not taking most of this too seriously anyways, except the stuff that's fake. It'll be interesting to see how you and Dart handle the tension between your characters, though.

So, I totally forgot that small creatures get +1 to attack rolls. I'll remember that in the future. Whoops...

Aid Another on Survival: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (12) - 1 = 11

"Right away, Khad. Jus' lemme finish setting this up."

Mossri helps Khadon however he says he needs it, and, although she doesn't have much experience cooking, she manages to avoid burning anything he says to cook.

WHOOOOOO! Two "Aid Another" successes in a row! +4 to Khadon's roll. Just wait until I can hit AC 10 occasionally, then I can be helpful in combat, I promise.

"I gots tha second one. Nothin' ever happens then in tha stories, so I should be fine.Just wake me up when you get tired, Maidie."

Mossri her tent and bedroll out of her backpack and sets it up.

I can take whatever watch is needed. Sometime in the middle would work well.

Don't forget you get +4 on that roll if it's looking at the map, Khadon.

I thought Maidie said she got one. No one else did.

Whenever whoever has the map reports in, here's my action.

Mossri eagerly rushes forward to look at the map. She offers helpful advice to the person trying to interpret it.

Aid Another Survival: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (15) - 1 = 14

"I think we're here, and we gots to keep going until here, then turn a little."

My Aid Another gives +4 instead of +2 because Helpful (Halfling) trait. Just so you all know and factor that in.

"Okay, I guess it's snacks on the road today. Ready to go."

Mossri pulls on her pack and sets off into the woods.

"I...I see. Illusions. Riiiiiiight. Well, don't ya think we ought ta get goin' again? I mean, I'm eager to leave this place behind, and Khadon's right, we gots a long way to go yet, and I aint hungry yet."

A loud rumbling from Mossri's stomach immediately proves her a liar, and she reluctantly searches through her pack for some food and drink.

Hope you are your wife are holding up alright today, Dragon.

Mossri looks about, focused on finding the now-invisible orcs.
"What's goin on!? Tha orcs turned invisible! We gots ta group together, watch our backs, friends! Friends?"

She looks around, seeing that the party is, for the most part, relaxing after their victory, and turns beet red in embarrassment.

Oooor maybe tha orcs wasn't real. I don't know what's what anymore."

She puts down her spear, stops her dancing, and sits down on the ground, confused and embarrassed.

alright, next time Mossri can act, here's what she does.

Mossri dances her way forward, closing to within reach distance of the nearest orc. She drives her longspear forward in a desperate thrust.

Stab!: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Damage?: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Then she looks around in confusion, wondering why her friends aren't attacking the obviously threatening orcs.
