....regardless...the fact remains that they are very hard to kill.

It can be frustrating as a player when you are faced with what appears to be 'plot armor'. Whether or not they have it, or your intentions, how it appears to the players is the litmus.

I suppose. You should be careful then. Sometimes recurring NPC enemies can feel forced. "A recurring enemy for the sake of having a recurring enemy." Especially since you've built him/her to be very difficult to kill.

I've only seen a snapshot of the whole, so...my thoughts are worth a grain of salt.

Mechanically sure. I'd be curious to see the motivation though.

LOL, a 50k gp magic item! You are correct about the lack of a save.

Quite reasonable.

...A nymph?..

wow, 4d6 no save..rough

Obsidian swings at the now prone enemy. But attacks cautiously. Attack defensively +3 AC

Gather power (move) -> Earth Blast (melee) [applying empowered (which is reduced by the gather power) and Kinetic Blade (which is reduced by infusion specialization)]

Earth Blast;defensively;prone: 1d20 + 8 - 4 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 8 - 4 + 4 = 25
3d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 6, 3) + 5 = 19
So, 19 x 1.5 = 28 piercing damage

Why not? I built Obsidian to be very hardy. Lets try it.

So I hit the enemy next to me?

Obsidian gives a smile that no one sees as his feet once more sink as the ground trembles. He swings his arms in a wide arc toward one of his adjacent attackers. As he does so an earthen maul forms in his hands.

Gather power (move) -> Earth Blast (melee) [applying empowered (which is reduced by the gather power) and Kinetic Blade (which is reduced by infusion specialization)]

Earth Blast: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
3d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 1, 1) + 5 = 12
So, 12 x 1.5 = 18 piercing damage
1d100 ⇒ 19 Miss due to concealment (I assume)

Hey everyone! I will be running Passing the Torch 1 & 2 as well as Siege of Gallowspire and Fate of the Scoured God over the next 2 days. As such it is incredibly unlikely that I will be able to post. Thanks for your understanding.

Point Blank Shot

Obsidian's feet sink into the ground partially as a small roaring sound happens. The ground trembles. With a quick and powerful motion Obsidian pounds his fist to the ground. When he does this a spike of earth quickly juts out toward the queen.

Gather power (move) -> Earth Blast (ranged) [applying empowered (which is reduced by the gather power) and Extended Range (which is reduced by infusion specialization)]

Earth Blast: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9 +1 if within 30ft
3d6 + 7 ⇒ (5, 5, 5) + 7 = 22
So, 22 x 1.5 = 33 piercing damage, +1 if within 30ft

Though the nat 1 is a nonstarter. I figured I'd go through the whole thing to exemplify my standard turn.

Will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

"I like a good trap," Obsidian whispers back. "That may be true, but you decided fighting was your response! That's only a good response if you can win. Otherwise it is like running uselessly against a," he grins, "stone wall!"

I like a good flank. Color me confident.

Obsidian grins, "I admit, I would be disappointed. Face me and I will best you and leave your tribe alone."

Restart?

Size change?

Edit: Oh, gotcha. I'll stay away.

Obsidian walks forward confidently until he is at the end of the spear held path. He slowly looks all around him, left to right. In a deep gravelly, rugged voice he speaks loudly, "We have made it here. We walked over the bodies of your tribe...easily. Now, all that remains is you." His eyes fall on the one on the throne, "Would you be foolish enough to die at our hands? To lead what remains of your tribe to their deaths as well? Becuase I swear to you, if you challenge us, I will rid this realm of your entire tribe."

Here

Saashaa here with a character on the high power level end. Completely PFS legal.

Obsidian will be playing in the special at level 16 (GM credit remaining) on Hard Mode (Champion). I look forward to seeing anyone else there.

Obsidian shrugs after pulling his head back into the room. "There is another medusa statue."

Obsidian walks over to the other 'door' and peeks through.

Obsidian withdraws his head from the door, "No obvious threats, lets go." He then proceeds to open the door and walk up to the statue.

Obsidian moves through the hall and stops at the first juncture with the door. Assuming it is stone, Obsidian peaks through the door.

Obsidian, with no apparent concern for the mentioned trap, moves over to the door that Xavier insisted was there and attempts to open it.

Obsidian leads the way in the direction Xavier points.

"You there, human females! Are you a danger to us? If not, how did you end up here/" Obsidian demands roughly.

Obsidian looks on bemused at Xavier as he rampages about in the herse.

Obsidian follows the gas.

Surprisingly, Obsidian cannot full attack with ranged blasts.

Obsidian steps forward, forms a large hammer in his hands, and swings several times.

Haste: 1d20 + 22 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 22 + 1 = 29

Story always overrules rules in my book.

Obsidian looks to the ghost with a resolved expression. "I remember you." He gathers power from his surroundings and launches a metal spike at the ghost.

Magnetic Infusion
1d20 + 22 ⇒ (9) + 22 = 31
14d6 + 34 ⇒ (3, 4, 6, 2, 5, 1, 3, 3, 5, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3) + 34 = 75

Obsidian shrugs, "It is not one of those shining children, so it matters little if it ends up being hostile to us."

Obsidian shrugs and takes some time making a stone staircase.

Obsidian raises an eyebrow at Xavier but moves back into the wall and follows the group via his tremorsense.

One, two, three, four, five. There should not be five...

Obsidian comes out of the wall between the new creature and the rest of the northwest tunnel.

"What is this one?" the questions seems directed at Xavier.

Does Obsidian sense those that approached his team?

Obsidian seems very comfortable being surrounded by this much stone. He turns to the others, "Stay here, I will scout out the tunnels." He then glides into the stone to the northwest, between the two tunnels. As he goes he periodically observes the surroundings through his tremorsense, trying to stay inside of stone the whole way.

Obsidian gives a smile as he sinks into the floor and follows the hole down.

I would end up using 23 charges, which would mostly deplete that wand.

Yes, I purchased it in the beginning and forgot to buy another wand of CLW.

"Could you use that scroll (of Heal) that I gave you earlier? I am feeling the wounds I have taken."

Well..in that case...

Obsidian places his hands on the floor and a large section slowly flows out. He then grabs both bodies and tosses them in the new 'hole'. After putting a metal spike through both of them, he reforms the stone around their bodies.

Do they breath?

Thanks for the double check.

Reflex: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (11) + 20 = 31
Fort: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (20) + 26 = 46
Fort: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (9) + 26 = 35

46 total damage I believe (I did this math late at night, so that may be wrong)

metal blast melee: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38
metal blast melee: 14d6 + 26 ⇒ (1, 5, 3, 2, 6, 6, 1, 6, 3, 2, 6, 2, 3, 6) + 26 = 78

Obsidian begins a swing as if wielding a large weapon. As he swings a large metal hammer forms.

Xavier you should also 5ft toward us.
