Pad The Pyro's page

Thank you all for your friendship. I think I will return to Whistledown and retire to a life of lighting fires, babies and pastries. I can't thank you enough for the shared adventures.

Pad bows, shakes the hands of each companions and teleports home in a wisp of smoke.

Thank you DM Kludde! Everything good here!

Wow, all of your sentiments have perfectly echoed my current situation. Thank you all for a wonderful adventuring experince. It has been a great pleasure playing with all of you. It he is time to retire Pad to a life of pastries and start a small clan of fire worshipers.

Pad casts Intensified Fireball behind the mount to avoid his companions.

SR check: 1d20 + 20 - 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 20 - 6 + 2 = 26
Intensified Fireball: Ref DC 25: 14d6 + 14 ⇒ (4, 5, 1, 3, 6, 4, 5, 4, 1, 6, 4, 1, 2, 6) + 14 = 66

Pad casts another Chain Lightning at the queen and her mount after flying away from the heated battle.

SR check: 1d20 + 20 - 6 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 20 - 6 + 2 = 33
Chain lightning: Ref DC 28 half, DC 26 for mount: 14d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 5, 2, 6, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5) = 41

Don't forget Haste and Good Hope!

No, I forgot to update it. I initially had 6 hp then cast extended greater infernal healing after crossing the anti-magical blackhole to grant 80 hp, so currently it should be 86 less 15 = 71. Updating now.

Will: 1d20 + 14 - 6 ⇒ (10) + 14 - 6 = 18

Pad casts Good Hope (+2 all rolls) on the party and a quickened intensified fireball on the queen and Shantak.

SR: 1d20 + 22 - 6 ⇒ (2) + 22 - 6 = 18
intensified fireball Reflex DC 25: 15d6 + 15 ⇒ (6, 6, 5, 2, 6, 5, 1, 5, 5, 2, 2, 1, 3, 3, 3) + 15 = 70

Pad casts a quickened Haste on the group, flies up to 20 feet toward the ceiling and readies a spell versus the demon queen's next casting.

Don't forget Haste!

You sound like you need a hug!

Pad dismounts from Jeb and casts Grasping Hand on the demonic queen.

SR check, Grasping Hand: 1d20 + 20 - 6 ⇒ (11) + 20 - 6 = 25

CMB grapple, Grasping Hand: 1d20 + 29 - 6 ⇒ (17) + 29 - 6 = 40

Those 6 negative levels are brutal.

The wall requires casting spells to remove it in a particular order. The order is Cone of Cold, Gust of Wind, Disintegrate, Passwall, Magic missile, Daylight and finally Dispel magic. I can cast Cone of Cold, Daylight with a scroll and Dispel Magic but none of the others.

Pad casts Cone of Cold on the wall.

Yes! Let's bring down the wall!

Was there a scroll of Passwall in any of the loot we recovered? It appears to be the only missing spell to take down the wall.

Pad casts Detect Magic and scans the area for traps.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 20 - 6 ⇒ (15) + 20 - 6 = 29
Trapfinding, t10: 10 + 25 - 6 = 29

Pad grants Jeb the ability to soar through the air with Extended Fly (32 min).

I hope you like your new wings.

Pad, dinosaur rider, is holding on for dear life.

Pad stands up and wipes a thin layer of dust from his eyes. He unconsciously adjusts his magical goggles soon realizing they have disappeared.

Has anyone seen my Eyes of the Eagle? They aren't on top of my head or on the ground. Drats! I've lost them again!

"The spell that destroyed our items and rendered us weaker is recharging, We should move NOW."

Oh my, that's dreadful! This adventure has been too much for me. Can we go home now? I've been at death's door three times already! I'm climbing aboard Jeb if that's okay with you.

The wide rear end of the gnome unassisted by magic struggles to climb on the dinosaur druid's back. He then casts extended greater infernal healing to regain his health over two minutes. (80 hp over 20 rounds.)

How much damage did Pad still have? It's hard for me judge whether dead or unconscious if I don't have the information I need.

My intention was to full heal (107 hp after loss of CON+4 belt) at the beginning of the day with his spells, but I did not state this with my actions. Without healing from last battle, he would have 14+level-6 = 25 hp before the CON+4 drop. Leaving him -5 hp after CON drop.

Well, as far as I can tell, he is down 30hp from the negative levels, and a further 30hp from the loss of his belt... leaving his maximum hp as 107.

Correct 107 is the max now. I'm not sure if I'm dead or unconscious. I also don't have a raise dead scroll on me.

Pad lays on the ground unconsious or dead.

Ouch, the loss of that ring of spell knowledge is BRUTAL.. sorry dude.

I think I will use my Folio reroll on that. I'm pretty sure I haven't used it yet on this module.

folio reroll on Ring of Spell Knowledge: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18

I forgot to roll to save against these negative levels after rest. I have no idea if the save penalties apply or they tapper off with each save. Below is unmodified. EDIT: I'm not sure if it's been 24 hours since that last vampire fight or not.

Negative level 1: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32
Negative level 2: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21
Negative level 3: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 26
Negative level 4: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27
Negative level 5: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 31
Negative level 6: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27

NO WHAMMY WILL SAVE+10: 28d20 ⇒ (2, 1, 16, 19, 16, 2, 4, 13, 13, 17, 7, 1, 15, 6, 9, 4, 7, 12, 5, 20, 15, 8, 10, 15, 5, 12, 17, 9) = 280

Ring of Arcane Spell Knowledge IV (24k) and Eyes of the Eagle (2.5k) are toast.

An item in a creature's possession uses its own Will save bonus or its possessor's Will save bonus, whichever is higher. If an item's saving throw results in a natural 1 on the die, the item is destroyed instead of being suppressed.

Did Pad get knocked unconscious because lowest effective HD due to negative levels and step on a symbol of death or the like? I would safely assume your will save is higher at level 15 or 16.

Plump gnome in back. Time for pre-buffs!

Pad casts a series of extended defensive spells at the opening including Mage Armor @self, Stoneskin @self, Good Hope @party, Spell Resistance @Jeb (SR 28), Fly @self, Spectral Hand, Protection from Evil @self, Shield @self, Improved Invisibility @self, Haste @party. (Duration = 320 minutes, 32 minutes or 32 rounds)

I'm also stuck with spells known. Feel free to recommend tactics or requests buffs.

I believe the majority is voting to rest to increase the likelihood of surviving and successfully completing the mission.

Pad drearily resigns to resting in the cave for the night, but is willing to press on if it is the consensus opinion.

I'm afraid there is little I can do to aid the group if we do not rest. I do not expect my dreams to be pleasant.

Can't we teleport out of here to rest....Dang it, I should have thought of that earlier. My magic is almost spent.

Unless this human stuck around, I'm not sure a peaceful sleep is in the cards.

Pad casts Ear-Piercing Scream at the lone demon.

SR: 1d20 + 20 - 6 ⇒ (11) + 20 - 6 = 25

Sonic, Fort DC 23 half no daze: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6, 6, 4) = 26

Pad defensively casts Chain Lightning at his enemies.

Go back to hell you demon!

defensively casting check: 1d20 + 30 - 6 ⇒ (4) + 30 - 6 = 28
SR check: 1d20 + 20 - 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 20 - 6 + 2 = 20

Chain lightning: Ref DC 28 half: 14d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6, 1, 3, 4, 2, 2, 4, 3, 3, 6, 3, 6) = 53

I'm not sure who or where the human is on the map. I'm out of spells above 2nd level.

Nalshene, having seen the very short instance of life in Pad's face, touches him with her other glove. Second breath of life.

Pretty sure that gets him up to +14 HP. He was at -21 last round.

Pad immediately sits up sucking the breath of life back into his body.

I am alive. How can that be?

He looks into intently into Nalshene's eyes.

You saved me. I owe you my life. Twice was it?

Pad defensively casts another Fire Snake at his enemies. A maniacial visuage appears on his bloodied face and he starts screaming like a madman.

BURN! BURN! BURN!

defensively casting check: 1d20 + 30 - 6 ⇒ (9) + 30 - 6 = 33
SR check: 1d20 + 20 - 6 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 20 - 6 + 2 = 32

Fire Snake: Ref DC 27 half: 14d6 + 14 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 6, 4, 4, 6, 6, 1, 2, 1, 2, 6, 5) + 14 = 64

"Burning" a 6th level spell slot by making it intensified. I took 139 damage last round, so I expect to drop next round.

Fort: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (19) + 17 - 6 = 30
Fort: 1d20 + 17 - 6 ⇒ (15) + 17 - 6 = 26

I need more time to consider my next action.

Pad stands, steps away and casts Fire Snake. A path of fire from Pad's fingers streaks toward the demons while dancing around his allies.

SR check: 1d20 + 20 - 6 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 20 - 6 + 2 = 30

Fire Snake: Ref DC 27 half: 14d6 + 14 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 3, 3, 4, 1, 1, 4, 6, 5, 6, 1, 5) + 14 = 61

I updated buff durations.

Sorry for the delay. I will post tonight.

Reflex: 1d20 + 11 - 6 ⇒ (12) + 11 - 6 = 17

Can anyone spare a restoration scroll or spell? I'm asking for a friend. He says sheepishly and stays close to Nalshene.

CLW wand: 5d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 2, 2, 7, 3) + 5 = 26

Pad moves a charged Spectral Hand to the marilith and attempts another Force Punch(assuming it missed last round).

melee touch, Quickened Force Punch: 1d20 + 10 - 6 ⇒ (13) + 10 - 6 = 17
SR, marilith: 1d20 + 22 - 6 ⇒ (3) + 22 - 6 = 19
Force Punch, Fort DC 27: 10d4 ⇒ (2, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 4, 3, 2) = 24

Pad steps away and casts Chain Lightning at the marilith followed by a quickened Force Punch. He also moves a Spectral Hand to the marilith.

Chain Lightning SR, marilith: 1d20 + 22 - 6 ⇒ (10) + 22 - 6 = 26
DC Reflex 28 marilith: 14d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 2, 5, 3, 6, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 2) = 46

DC Reflex 28 marilith & DC 26 vrock: 14d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 5, 3, 5, 1, 3, 6, 3, 6, 2, 4, 1, 1) = 49

I've never been in such a controlling relationship before. I'll need months of therapy before I can trust again. I didn't mean to hurt any of you. I'm so very sorry.

Pad uses a clean, white handkerchief to wipe away his tears. After a minute of self pity, he thoroughly searches the room's floor, walls and ceilings for traps then secret doors.

Trapfinding, t10: 10 + 31 - 6 = 35
Perception, t10: 10 + 24 - 6 = 28

I think it can be save to assume three auto aids to search this room for +6 bonus.

Will Save: 1d20 + 16 - 6 ⇒ (7) + 16 - 6 = 17

His beady eyes begin to fill up tears of frustration.

Will Save: 1d20 + 16 - 6 ⇒ (6) + 16 - 6 = 16

Pad frozen pose does not change.

Will Save: 1d20 + 16 - 6 ⇒ (17) + 16 - 6 = 27

Will Save: 1d20 + 16 - 6 ⇒ (17) + 16 - 6 = 27 +2 vs fear

Your reign is over!

Pad casts Ear-Piercing Scream and throws another Quickened Force Punch.

Ear-Piercing Scream, SR: 1d20 + 18 + 2 - 6 ⇒ (4) + 18 + 2 - 6 = 18
sonic dmg Fort DC 21 for half and stunned: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 5, 6) = 19

Force Punch: 10d4 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 4, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4) = 21

Pad flies east hovering near the ceiling while reading from a Heal scroll in hand.

I feel so much better now.

UMD, Heal scroll: 1d20 + 29 - 6 ⇒ (15) + 29 - 6 = 38
UMD, Wisdom modifier: 1d20 + 29 - 6 ⇒ (17) + 29 - 6 = 40

Need to roll a 1 for failure on either check. 110 Damage healed.

Pad's Spectral Hand attempts to Force Punch (still charged from last round) while he steps back and pulls out a scroll of Heal from his Handy Haversack.

Force Punch, TA: 1d20 + 9 + 2 - 6 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 2 - 6 = 19
Force Punch, SR: 1d20 + 20 + 4 - 6 ⇒ (12) + 20 + 4 - 6 = 30
Force Punch: 10d4 ⇒ (2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 4, 4, 2, 2, 4) = 24

Currently at 6 negative levels. Fort DC 27 or pushed back 100-5 /ft per size bigger than medium.

I was waiting declare an action in the previous round as Pad was attempting to break free of Dominate Person. If allowed, he will retrieve a scroll of Death Ward from his Handy Haversack and cast it on himself this round and use the last declared actions in the previous round when he broke free of Dominate Person.

UMD, Death Ward scroll: 1d20 + 29 - 8 ⇒ (9) + 29 - 8 = 30
UMD, Wisdom modifier: 1d20 + 29 - 8 ⇒ (10) + 29 - 8 = 31

Need to roll a 1 for failure on either check. Damage taken calculated: 10 fireball + 10 fireball + 5 slam (energy drain) + 5 swarm + 21 nonlethal + 3 acid + 13 slam (energy drain) + 10 slam (energy drain) + 8 slam (energy drain) + 40 temporary hit points (8 levels of energy drain) - 16 temp hit points (form of dragon) = 108 total.

Pad steps back and casts Fire Snake on Betcezia and the northern vampire. Then, he moves his Spectral Hand to Betcezia for a quickened Force Punch.

Fire Snake, SR: 1d20 + 22 - 8 ⇒ (17) + 22 - 8 = 31
Fire Snake: 12d6 + 12 ⇒ (4, 3, 6, 3, 5, 5, 2, 3, 3, 4, 1, 6) + 12 = 57

Quickened Force Punch, TA: 1d20 + 9 + 2 - 8 ⇒ (10) + 9 + 2 - 8 = 13

Force Punch: 10d4 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 4, 1, 3) = 29

8 negative levels (2 per hit) is harsh. Fort DC 27 or pushed back 100-5 /ft per size bigger than medium.

Any subject forced to take actions against its nature receives a new saving throw with a +2 bonus.

Defending is a different command than actively killing his allies that aren't threatening her in my opinion.

Will save reroll if allowed by DM: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 16 + 2 = 30
