Radiant's page

Yep. A fun run. Thanks for running for us Tyranius. I'd be honored to play at your table again.

Add two damage to that total as I forgot to add in the dance bonus to damage.

Radiant dances in and attacks, then dances back out.

+2 Adamantine Scimitar: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (9) + 18 = 271d6 + 9 + 4d6 ⇒ (4) + 9 + (5, 2, 2, 6) = 28

Shaking off the fear Radiant picks up his dropped weapon and begins his battle dance.

Don't forget the banner everyone!

Travrling home today. Might be stuck one connection short of home as we are delayed at JFK. Can post save not not attack on my phone. If I fail the. You don’t have to bot.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

And that is a fail so Radiant is stunned unless there are buffs up that I have forgotten like maybe Heroism.

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19

Radiant dodges and evades the bolt of lightning while remaining
Invisible.

@Radiant- You have a few too many actions going on as Spring attack is a full round action. So can only start you dance and move in to attack normally.

Ok. You are correct. But I believe Radient can still do a swift action and vanish, right? If he vanishes is he still targeted by both spells?

So, I am in China. I can post to the boards but not see the map as google is outside the great firewall here. A little surreal.

Holding his banner Radiant spring attacks the closest enemy. He uses a move action to start a dance (perfromance) and then a ki point for extra movement. He ends his spring attack away fro the rest of the party and vanishes at the end of his turn as a swift..

+2 adamantine scimitar, flat footed driver: 1d20 + 15 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 15 + 3 = 251d6 + 8 + 3 + 4d6 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 3 + (3, 1, 4, 5) = 29

If that hits then enemy gets a debilities injury and takes -4 to hit me, -2 to hit others for a round.

Inspecting the room Radiant wonders what wealth might have been buffed with the minion. He casts detect Magic before he searches alcove. He takes 10 on his search for a 27.

Another trip

I leave for New York City around noon tomorrow and from there will leave for 11 days in China on Wednesday. I will be back late on Saturday April 7 and begin to catch up on April 8th. And yes I know I just got back from a trip.

I will have an iPad with me (better than posting from a phone) and should have internet most of the time but there are three days that are remote so I am almost sure I will not have internet all the time. I will do my best to post some but please both me instead of waiting for me. This is my last trip longer than a long weekend I have planned for the entire year.

Radiant pulls and tries to activate a wand of Cure Light Wounds, shaking it a few times after it fails to work the first try.

Use Magic Device DC 19: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 181d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Use Magic Device DC 19: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 261d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

+1 to hit and damage from Flagbearer.

Radient, holding his flag high happily springs in and attacks Red.

+2 Adamantine Scimitar: 1d20 + 15 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 15 + 1 = 181d6 + 8 + 1 + 4d6 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 1 + (1, 1, 1, 3) = 19 Crap rolls as well.

Don't forget your flagbearer bonuses people! The flag is in the room with you.

As a general rant I have to say I do not understand dropping without a word in PBPs. I can understand if something comes up you might need to drop. But then you send a PM to the GM explaining what happened and that you are leaving and then you send a quick note to the group in discussion as well. Anything less seems quite rude to me.

Still flying, and now holding his banner (+1 to hit and damage) radiant springs in, attacks red, and springs back out.

+2 Adamantine Scimitar: 1d20 + 15 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 15 + 1 = 251d6 + 8 + 1 + 4d6 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 + (4, 6, 3, 1) = 26

Radiant moves into the first of the doors, black blade poised and senses open. He searches it before moving to the second.

Door 1 Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (10) + 17 = 27

Door 2 Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31

I have always heard that these pyramids can be full of traps. Best let me lead. Radiand warns. If no one can read the strange writings Radiant will pull his wand of Comprehand Languages and use it on himself.

Refelx: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23

Radiant almost casually dodges the bolt of energy taking no damage. Seeing the enemy brings vague memories and even nightmares of drow legends mixed with fable and here say. He wonders what they are and might be able to do in a fight, but he is unable to recall fact from legend.

Knowledge Planes?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

He vanishes (swift action) begins a battle dance (move action) and stealthily advance toward the enemy, drawing his scimitar and gaining 10' of altitude as he does.

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 18 + 20 = 41

I can employ consumable magic to allow me to read it if no one else can do so.

Wand of Comprehend Languages

I am leaving for a 10 day trip tomorrow. My posting will be limited to shorter posts from an iPad and likely only in the evenings. Please bot me if I get behind. I travel home on the 17th and should be back to normal on the 18th.

Hey, I can fly. Radiant says with delighted surprise.

Untrained Fly: 1d20 + 6 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 4 + 2 = 22

He zips about checking out the cavern near the ceiling before asking Can anyone read that writing?

Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20

Well done brother. Radiant praises Menas clasping his shoulder.

Radiant catches a glimpse of the creature and tries to recall what it might be.

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Note that Radiant has the Trap Spotter Rogue Talent so the GM gets to roll perception to find traps when he gets within 10 feet of a trap/trigger. His perception is +17.

Busy Weekend. Finally found my last Chronicle sheet and did an alias update. Back with the game now.

Radient begins to dances a battle dance and move in to spring attack green and then back out.

+2 adamantine scimitar: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 291d6 + 8 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 + (4, 2, 1, 2) = 21

<<Message received and confirmed.>>

Slight of Hand: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

Menas notices that Radiant wears a silver holy symbol of Sarenrae. It is hard to say if its skipping from his shirt is intentional or not and it is tucked back into his shirt quickly. After the costume shoots the cleric a quick wink.

Sarenrae here.

Earlier.
When flying pyramids are mentioned the Kitsuni at the table nods knowingly. I have heard of such. Likely Shory technology. There were said to have harnessed armies of elemetals to lift their cities.

Present
Radiant looks up in concern at the overly loud warpriest. He holds a single finger to his lips and slips quietly forward to peer into the darkness. The light of day penetrates farther for him than it might for humans (low light vision)

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (19) + 18 = 37

Perception with Low Light Vision: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30

Note: Radient has the Trapspotter trick: Whenever you come within 10' of a trap, the GM secretly rolls for you to find it.

Yeah I'll bring my Barbarian and his angry Lion.

Of course bring who you want to play and will have the most fun with but it seems we are melee heavy and have little arcane or knowledge check people. I am only repeating myself her to make sure you did not miss that point.

Shifty if you bring your bard I'll bring this guy. Need to update this alias. I actually played him this weekend. Pretty sure he is level 9 still.

Radiant is with the Exchange. Do any of these options promote trade or create more value for the group?

My gut tells me that helping to hunt down the amethyst sage is the right thing to do, but I have to remind myself that in truth I do not know the amethyst sage' motives. What are your thoughts? he asks the rest of his group.

Agreed. Thanks for stepping up. Not sure if we pre-rolled day jobs or not. I do not recall.

Day Job: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28

I wanted to give a heads up that I will be traveling starting tomorrow afternoon to attend a Mid South Con where I am helping run PFS. I'll be busy often without access to the internet so my posting will be very limited if at all. Everyone have a good weekend.

Radiant, seeing the creature attack this time, springs in to flank with one of the hound archons. He will delay for it to move up to attack if necessary.

Dancing Spring Attack, Hasted and Banner with flank: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 325d6 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (2, 1, 6, 4, 4) + 9 + 1 = 27

Radiant eyes his enemy warily, keenly aware of how close the attack came to striking him.

Radiant spring attacks and flanks once more.

Dancing Spring Attack, Hasted and Banner with flank: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 285d6 + 9 ⇒ (1, 4, 3, 5, 3) + 9 = 25

Taking advantage of having someone to flank with Radiant springs up, attacks, and springs back.

Dancing Spring Attack, Hasted and Banner with flank: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 345d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 4, 2, 6, 3) + 9 = 29

Radiant will call out to the group Can anyone cast a Dispel Magic on the Sphere. It is certainly magical in nature and the spell might at least disrupt what is protecting it.

Rats. You are right that he does not get the sneak attack but not right that no other conditions can grant it. Let me explain why I though I was right, and why I am not. Radiant has the Scout archetype. With that If he moves 10' he gets sneak attack. That is why he is spring attacking instead of getting 3 attacks a round. And that is his entire build in a nutshell. He gets this ability at 8th level. And he is 8th level. BUT he gets it at 8th level Ninja and he has a level of bard. So he is one level away from that ability because he mult-classed.

If someone can move to the south side of the creature I can do more damage Radiant notes after his damage is not significant.

Grumble, grumble. At least the first d6 was a 6. So that tis still a total of 15 points. I am betting 5 get though dr. No argument, but I am unaware of a way to avoid sneak attack short of concealment or being a high level rogue. Can Radiant think of an way?

Enjoying the range the Haste gives him Radiant moves up and attacks, the safely moves back to his starting position, all the while wondering about the sphere.

Dancing Spring Attack, Hasted and Banner but no flank: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 14 + 1 + 1 = 245d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 2, 6) + 9 = 30

Not a big deal. The hasted Radiant can spring attack 70 feat now and sneak attacks after moving 10'. So he would have attacked the remaining enemy. But I believe a 22 likely missed so it matters little.

OK. Understand the sphere thing now. And now that he is spring attacking he does not need to go invisible any more. If diplomacy is a standard action then just consider it free talking as he attacks. Even though it looks like he missed, he would attack if they are attacking. If for some reason they are reasonable and stop attacking he would too. :)

The Sphere - I am trying to figure this thing out but you are not giving me much help. I have tried to ask two times if you can see through the thing and do not have an answer from you yet on that. If its a force effect it is "normally" clear per the spell, so we should be able to see inside it. At least that is my take on it.

Everyone please remember Radiant's Banner - It adds +1 to hit and damage. We might need the bonus if a 26 just barely hits. And I think you know this GM Sior - constructs are fully sneak attackable. Do you agree? If they are not Radiant is wasting his time attacking since he has no way to bypass their DR. and I think he could tell as his attack did 15 without sneak and more than double with it.

Ready to fight to the end but confused why the creatures attacked, Radiant appeals to their sense of fairness. Wait! This is not a sage gem. It is from the Sphynx and only appears to be of the jeweled sages. We are not your enemies. It is not too late to work together.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

If his attempt at diplomacy fails to bring about any change in the attitudes of the constructs he spring attacks again, gaining flank and sneak attack. After his attack he moves back into the room.

Dancing Spring Attack, Hasted and Banner with flank: 1d20 + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 14 + 1 + 1 + 2 = 225d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 1, 1) + 9 = 23

So the sphere is not transparent or translucent? And it is not a spell effect?

Holding is flag in his off hand, Radiant uses his swift action to Vanish (if he is not still invisible. I think he should be). He then Spring attacks into a flanking position with Grimnir and attacks using his sneak attack ability. After the attack he springs back 15'

+1 Scimitar: 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 14 + 1 = 265d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 3, 6) + 9 = 31

Did my stellar arcana roll (nat 20) tell me anything about the nature of the sphere? Is it opaque?

What does the orb appear to be made of? Perhaps we have to use that Stone we charged up? Perhaps someone better at knowledge Arcana can check too?

Knowledge Arcana to know about the sphere and the stone: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

What about Radiant's attack and bull rush attempt? I am pretty confused on where everything is too. It this thing level with us? How big is it? Can we get a better description?

Were it mechanical in nature, or even a magical trap I believe i could have disabled it. If it is falling can it be pushed off course? Unsure of what it will do to him if it contacts his bodyRadiant will firs try to strike it with a weapon, and if that had not effect and does not harm him he will try to bull rush it.

Attack: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (5) + 18 = 231d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Bull Rush: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
