Norasha Mountainrunner's page

I'm still here, but I've been busy lately. Can anyone give me a quick update on what's happened.

I've been doing some house cleaning and having a bunch of yard sales while on vacation trying to make some room in my house and straighten up my garage. Again sorry about that y'all. I didn't mean to be absent without telling anyone, I just got busy and it slipped my mind.

Hey just to give y'all a heads up: I'm about to be hit by Hurricane Irma so I might be unable to post. I'll try and post when I can but I probably won't be able to. If I can't gm please bot me. I'm sorry about this.

Norasha moved as quickly as possible to help Corric out, yelling, "Why don't you come out here! Some orc raiders y'all are!? Y'all are nothing but a bunch of yellow-bellied cowards!"

Bluff: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (17) + 0 = 17

Trying something, the dwarven paladin yells, "Hey you filthy brigands! Why are you hiding!? You scared that this attractive dwarven woman is going to spank you for being bad!? Ha! You need a good swift kick in the crotch for all the trouble you've caused! Your ugly mothers probably couldn't spank you if their lives depended on it! Why they probably didn't want to taint their hands spanking the bottoms of such ugly children!"

She's taunting them by the way.

I'm here!

Norasha gets ahead of everyone, standing at the vanguard of the group, her shield and axe at the ready, prepared to intercept anyone or anything that dares to move in range or her axe or try and get by her to attack her friends.

Norasha is now readied against approach. Should any enemy approach her or try to get by her, their movement will be interrupted and I get to attack them.

"Rokar, laddie, try and stay out of the fight as best as ye can. You're still wounded pretty badly. Don't hesitate to take a healing potion if an enemy gets close to ya."

The dwarven paladin was not going to lose anyone on this venture!

Sorry y'all I've been absent (again! Man, I'm getting tired of this!), but I got swamped at work, plus on top of yardwork, my dad's asthma acting up (really badly I'm afraid), and looking for another job, I've been very very busy! I apologize for being absent and not giving a heads up. I hope y'all can forgive me.

And thank you for the heads up!

And if it's okay, could you give me another update please?

Waraxe Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Waraxe Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Norasha quickly attacks the orc Corric is engaged with!

"Crap! Someone help Rokar out!"

She swings her axe again at the orc she had just attacked.

Waraxe Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Waraxe Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Norasha swung her blade at the nearest enemy, hoping her attack turned the tide of the battle.

"Get back you knaves!"

Okay, I know that wasn't very dwarven warrior like banter!

Sure that works for me!

And sorry for not posting yet. Been busy with work and all.

Uh-oh!

Norasha gritted her teeth! She said a prayer to the dwarven gods as she swung again and shouted, "Everyone who is wounded, fall back! That means you Omast! I'll cover y'all's escape!"

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

This time her axe struck its target.

"Gods of the Dwarves, we need a miracle right about now!"

"Damn it Rokar! Fall back and get yourself healed!"

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

I"m starting to wonder if the dice hate me now. :(

Norasha swung her axe again, hoping to take down some more orcs.

Sorry I haven't posted yet. Been busy with work. I'll try and have a post up either tonight or tomorrow.

Still keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers GM!

"Okay, here's what we do. You get injured, fall back and use those healing potions. Milani, you stick with Rokar and provide support. Not doubting yer's cat's abilities, but Rokar, see if you can get her to take some healing potion if she gets damaged even more."

The dwarven woman readied her weapon.

Doing the same thing Rokar's doing.

"Aye! I can heal her! Wish we had some alchemist's fire we could throw at those orcs!"

Lay on Hands: 1d6 ⇒ 6

The dwarven paladin quickly beseeches the dwarven goddess of love and marriage, as well as Torag, asking them to aid her in healing Milani.

Suddenly, a brilliant light flows from Norasha's hands and spreads across the large cat's body, enveloping Milani, and healing her.

CRUD! I've been forgetting about my character's Blooded Trait! It gave me +1 weapon damage bonus whenever I'm attacking orcs, goblins, and giants! But to help out, I'm also using a healing potion. I can't remember what it was so I'll let the GM tell us. After that, Norasha will then immediately assume a position next to Rokar.

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

UGH!!!!!!! THE DICE MUST HATE ME! MUST KILL DICE!

The dwarven paladin swung her axe but missed the orc, which resulted in a colorful stream of dwarven curses that would make a sailor blush with shock.

Norasha quickly swings her axe at one of the remaining two orcs near them.

"Someone help Rokar and Milani out!"

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

I'm going to try and post sometime next week. Wifi at the store is acting stupid again, so I can't get Roll20 to work right.

Sorry about that y'all.

And sorry to hear that Corric. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Take your time. We'll still be here.

Did we cut the logs?

"Damn it!

Norasha heads toward one of the set of logs and begins cutting the ropes!

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

"They're getting through! Cut the ropes damn it! And get Milani out of there, so I can heal her! Aisha! Corric! Cut the ropes damn it! Those orcs are getting through!"

"Damn it! Milani pull out! You're too wounded to stay in the fight!"

Norasha quickly yelled at the others (particularly the halfling and half-orc) to cut the logs free! As in now!

Waraxe: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Waraxe: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

She swung her axe but missed!

"Someone cut the damn logs free! NOW!!!!!!!"

I'm here. Sorry it's been a busy past few days. I'll try and post something.

Norasha rushed one of the orcs in front of Rokar and Milani, swinging her axe at the raider, seeing an opening the orc warrior's defenses.

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Sorry Rokar. But I'm trying to position Norasha so she can cut down some of the logs to roll downhill and crush those orc reinforcements!

Hey y'all, where are the orcs in position of the logs?

I'm trying to see on roll20, but the site keeps hiccuping for me.

"Sure thing! When possible, if more come through, release those logs. We need to make it difficult for more to come at us!"

Norasha readies herself, making sure that no orc will get by her!

Norasha is now readied against approach. If any orc should approach her or try to get past her, then their movement will be interrupted and she gets in a free attack!

There's technically a feat that does that. It's called Antagonize.

Ah I see.

Now is it useful?

Hey y'all, which skill is used for taunting?

Diplomacy, Bluff, or Intimidate? Or do I roll all three? That's what I did when I gmed a long time ago was to have people roll all three and then add the three rolls together, divide by 2 (to make it fair I guess), and then see if they beat the enemy's Anti-Taunt DC (I made on that the fly!). If the DC is beaten, the enemy suffers a -2 on all AC, Reflex, Will, Attack, Concentration, and Confirm Critical rolls to signify that a bad guy is really, really mad at you!

However, this might be a more complex method and one that everyone might not be comfortable on using. Thoughts?

"Ah thank the gods you're somber Omast! Now, I say we push that...hey, I wonder if that boulder is like those burning rocks. Omast put a torch in front of the rock's path. Hopefully, it'll set some of those raiders on fire!"

Strength Check to push boulder: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

"Push you maggots! Do ye want to live forever!"

I got it updated. I'm sorry. I thought I had let y'all know that I had updated it. Must have gotten eaten up when Paizo's website acted up.

My apologies. I feel just awful now!

Apologies for being absent.

Been busy lately.

If it isn't too much trouble can someone please bring me up to speed on what has happened?

Not yet. I should be able to update sometime tomorrow, most likely late afternoon. Things are starting to calm down some, so I can now play catch up in all the campaigns I'm in.

I do apologize for making y'all wait for me. Things got hectic around the holidays.

Sorry y'all but I'll won't be able to update my stats until next week. The holidays are upon me so my posting rate is going to drop to almost zero really quickly. I can still post but I want to make sure I have my numbers correct when I make rolls. Again I'm apologize for the inconvenience.

My posting rate has actually slowed down a great deal because of work and the holidays. So, if I don't post, then please bot me. I'm posting this to all of my games I'm in, just to let people know. Sorry about this.

"Agreed. And I'm right behind you Rokar," Norasha says, her axe and shield ready for combat.

Norasha blushes a bit from Aisha's reply.

"Now I just made myself look stupid in front of such an attractive lass like her. Oh Bolka help me here!"

Regaining some of her composure, the red headed dwarf replies back, "Sorry. I have a bad habit of thinking everyone is prepared like me. So you'll have to forgive me about that. I hope that doesn't me look foolish or bad in your beautiful eyes, Aisha."

She winked at the half-orc before handing her waterskin to Aisha to use.

Norasha already used it but she should have enough for Aisha to use.

"Use your waterskins," Norasha suggested.

"By the spirits of the ancient dwarven forefathers! Quick! Everyone get some damp cloths, rags, or whatever you got, doesn't matter if it's your freaking nickers or bloomers just make sure it's wet and cover your mouth with it. It'll help with the smoke. Damn! Everyone be careful, stay sharp, and keep your weapons ready to smite some raider heads. This be a perfect place for an ambush. Rokar, you stay back a bit since you've injured. Corric, keep that crossbow of yours loaded. Aisha stay sharp. Rokar see if you can have Milani follow me in. We'll try and draw any enemies out just enough to keep them in but far enough out that the smoke doesn't affect us. I really wish I knew what was causing this smoke to be so irritating. Someone must have doused a boulder or ballista with some alchemical junk. I could be wrong though. Someone could have just set fire to an alchemist's shop or a magic store or something you really don't want to set on fire."

"We can't rest too long though. We do have some of those healing potions we got off those assassins," Norasha reminded everyone.

Should I roll an attack? I think the last orc is dead by my calculations.

Norasha rolls her eyes as the crossbow bolt misses her and hits the ground right at her feet.

"Really!? Really!? I'm standing here you imbecile and ye can't hit me!!"

No one can tell if she is merely taunting her enemy or scolding him. Regardless of which, she swings her axe at the orc raider in front of her.

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8 NOOOO!!! Is this what karma feels like!?

Waraxe damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Waraxe attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Waraxe damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Norasha swung her axe at the orc raider facing her, hoping to take down her foe.

"Oh no you don't!"

The female dwarf surges forward, swinging her axe at one of the crossbow wielding orcs.

Waraxe charging attack: 1d20 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 2 + 5 = 19

Waraxe charging damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Cant view the map, but if one of the other orcs is in the way then I'll attack that one instead.

"Aye, seems to be. Well, what are we waiting for. Let's start splitting some orc raiders," Norasha said.

"Aye. It is best we take ye to the healers first before we jump back into the battle that's going on," the paladin of Bolka said.

"Aye we appreciate the thanks and all but I would feel better if we escort you there ourselves. What with the town under attack with the fact that there are now infiltrators inside these walls, things have gotten very dangerous very quickly," the dwarven paladin said gripping her shield and waraxe tightly.

"Aye I agree. The whole town has become infiltrated by villains, bandits, thugs, and raiders! What's next? Don't answer that question please!?"

Norasha looked around as well.

Aid Another Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Waraxe Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Waraxe damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Sorry for having you to bot me GM. Been busy with work and all. I'm still going to see this through to the end!

Norasha moved pass the catfolk and struck at the thug threatening Rokar.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news everyone, but my iPhone is acting up, so I'm trying to get it fixed (could be a software issue, or worse the battery is messed up). This will impact my posting rate some, but I'll still try and post as often as I can from my laptop before work.

So, keep y'all's fingers crossed. And I apologize about this. I'm concerned that my phone got messed up during the hurricane when I had numerous power surges prior to losing power when Matthews came through.

Okay....

Crisis averted! After looking online, I found that sometimes if you let your iPhone's battery drain to 0% (which you're supposed to do occasionally), the battery may not have enough juice to charge back up. According to what I found online, simply using a blow dryer to warm the phone up enough for say 5-10 minutes and then immediately plug your iphone into a charger, the iPhone starts right back up. Phew! Glad that's over.

"What can I say, Torag works in mysterious ways, friend. Now let's get out of here before this place comes down on us all!"

Strength check to carry Morningstar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
