The cut slice in his abdomen still stinging Radriel takes a split second raising his arms to the sky where Holy Silver sparks quickly fill his body.
Uses a previously prepared
Luck Blessing, Lucky Presence (minor):: to roll twice on this attack.
At 1st level, you can touch an ally and grant it a lucky presence.

The initiator makes an attack against a target creature, inflicting damage as normal, and the strike restores 1d6 hit points plus his initiation modifier to the initiator or to an ally within 30-ft. ----------------------------- 1 attack roll twice take best result from Lucky Presence
Radriels fist crashes right through the assailants broken jaw. As it connects a mixture of Golden and Silver energy crackles through his foul body. At the same time a Silver cloud of healing energy briefly crackles around Radriel healing most of his wounds.
Have a great time in Paris. . Selfishly my vote will be for continuing this game no matter what. . I really liked how well we started. . There is no blame to lay at your doorstep Boneman. . You've been running a great game with great pacing. We just got unlucky with some of the players dropping. . I can think of one player that I can recommend from another game I'm in. . Maybe the others can do the same. . Maybe if we invite players who've proven reliable in other games we might have better luck than just opening up Recruitment and hoping for a better result than last time.
Radriel feeling the satisfaction of the hooded man's jaw breaking continues the attack hoping to finish him off
Roaring in pain and anger, mostly anger Radriel attacks the one who stabbed him in the shoulder with a Monk's Flurry
It may just be my mind playing tricks on me. But I hear footsteps within the house. I'll feel better and be able to concentrate more on the journal if I just take a couple of minutes to walk around and make sure it's just the wind. with that Radriel exits the room closing the door behind him
Kendra it goes without saying that we would like to do anything we can to help you. Will you follow your father's wishes and allow us to do that? After listening to her response I think our best bet would to start with a thorough reading of the Professor's journal.
As the spectral face suddenly appears in the window Radriel takes an involuntary jump backwards. Used to seeing such things occassionally in his nightmares, but not while awake. Radriel is a confused mix of shock, anger, and (difficult for him to admit) a little fear. With Father Harking and the spectral face gone from the room his respective sources of frustration and hatred gone, Radriel slowly masters himself. When Hector speaks of being willing to share his knowledge Radriel responds "Thanks Hector, anything you can tell me of Harrowstone will be appreciated. Obviously we will not recieve any help from Harking in that regard, but he is hiding something" Complying with Kendras request, Radriel follows the group into the Study.
His patience wearing thin, not that he has ever possessed that in great amounts anyways Radriel tries once more to get Father Harking to reveal what he is hiding about Harrowstone. Radriel moves up to the window so he can see Harrowstone. When a flash of lighting illuminates it he makes eye contact with Father Harking.
Do you know what may have caused him to be afraid? Does it have any connection with Harrowstone?
If this doesn't work he will sit impatiently waiting for the Father to grow a sack or wait for someone else to persuade the Father.
Ok. . Have to admit disappointment in his disappearance. Hopefully we can regain some momentum with just the 4 of us. I think we still have all our bases covered Divine Melee arcane and trap finding. . Can someone with an actual diplomacy score try to pump father Harking and see what he's hiding regarding Harrowstone?
As Father Harking walks in front of us into the house Radriel whispers to whoever is near him "the Father is clearly hiding something regarding Harrowstone. . Maybe one of you will have better luck getting him to reveal what he's hiding " -Posted with Wayfinder
It is OBVIOUS that Father Harking is holding something back Father, what was that place? Harrowstone you called it? I wish the Professor was still here. I'm sure he would be able to tell us all its hidden history. Can you just tell us a little?
Still active and alive. . I've not been eaten or captured by any foul undead. . But I am sleeping with a flashlight. Radriel aka WabbitHuntr
"Well met Sheriff. I am Radriel Shadowsbane from Lastwall. " -Posted with Wayfinder
I honestly don't have a problem with being refocused when you feel it's necessary to avoid falling off the rails. If you need to prompt me to change my actions don't hesitate. . I'm good with it. Just wanted to explain my rapid change of actions to everyone.
Despite his better judgment Radriel allows himself to be convinced by Father Harking to leave Kendra unattended at the cemetery and follow him to the Professors house.
I agree an undead early warning system would be an awesome thing to have -Posted with Wayfinder
---------------------------------------------------------------- Kendra please allow us to wait for you outside the cemetery. We had some odd encounters on our way here and fear leaving anyone alone in the Usatalavian night. We promise to give you your space. Take as much time as you need. We are in no hurry. IF Kendra agrees to this I propose the following to my companions once we are outside the cemetery:
Radriel kneels down next to the sobbing halfling. "Remember this feeling Hector. And when the time comes channel it, focus it upon those who had a hand in the Professor's untimely demise. Only then can we as his friends rest knowing that he is truly at peace with his death avenged " -Posted with Wayfinder
With a voice still harsh and sore from the SCREAM and a glint of tears in his eyes Radriel recounts how his life crossed paths with the Professor and their relationship over the years "... most of all, thank you for taking the time to help a young lost boy find his way."
whispered to the Professor or those with keen ears:
Convinced that this was no natural death. That the Professor had stumbled upon something dangerous as evidenced by his letter" By Ragathiels Sword and my Fists, you will be avenged" Radriel stands and steps away from the casket. Eyes now devoid of tears, left in their place anger and a desire for vengeance.
Putting his arm around the lads shoulders "I'm sorry for your loss son. Sometimes this world doesn't make any sense..All of us are still coming to grips with the loss of our friend the professor. So we kind of understand how you feel.... We'd like to leave as soon as possible so we can get to Ravengro in time for the funeral. " -Posted with Wayfinder
"Also, I'm not sure if you were friendly with the lady Inn keeper, but we were the ones who slew the foul necromancer who killed her. . If we hadn't maybe the whole town would be overrun with skeletons right now. . That has to be worth something. " -Posted with Wayfinder
"Well... we all managed to get here on foot. We can continue that way if need be. -Posted with Wayfinder
Radriel stands by impatiently not understanding why anyone would be so set on buying this old war horse. . -Posted with Wayfinder
I can post weekend weekday. . Doesn't matter. . . I check the thread multiple times a day. . Really wish we could sign up for email notifications for threads we are participating in. . I'm sure that would help with post rates. . -Posted with Wayfinder
Radriel waits patiently as Daniel talks to the boy about SKULLCRUSHER. "Come on Daniel, it's just an old war horse. . I'm sure you can buy another when we get to the next town " -Posted with Wayfinder
----------------------------------------------------------------- Wonderful breakfast Hector! I needed that after last night. Looking at everyone gathered around the table. Shall we get started on the road. I would enjoy your company on the road. As we can see from last night there are strange powers about and I feel traveling together would be wise. Radriel makes his way to the door waiting for the others to join him.
Have a good weekend everyone -Posted with Wayfinder
"Hector, I am truly exhausted by tonight's events. . I am in need of sleep now rather than food, but if you are still offering in the morning, breakfast would be great before we get on our way " -Posted with Wayfinder
My vote is against. I think we have all our bases covered (melee. Arcane. Divine. Trap/skills) assuming that everyone keeps advancing in their current roles. I will not be upset if we add another. I just don't think we need to.
-Posted with Wayfinder
Hey everyone... I'm really sorry but I've got some RL stuff going on and I'm going to have to step away from the boards indefinitely... I'm sorry to disappear right as we're getting started but I wish you all well (and you could still replace me in Ravengro before things really get going). -------------------------------------------------------------------- @Zaga Sorry to hear that. Hope things work out.
Radriel rises from the floor and gets closer to everyone so he doesn't have to strain his raw voice so much. My vote is to spend the rest of the night at the Inn. As crazy as that may sound I like the idea of spending the night in the woods less at this point. Besides I agree with the Deputy that this has to be reported to the Locals and the Deputy is the best one to do that. After he has made his report in the morning we all can set out on the road together. It has been a taxing night and I wouldn't mind a couple of hours sleep in a decent bed before starting off. That said I'll abide by what the majority decides. his voice cracking with strain at the end
In a rough and barely audible voice ""I agree. . It's looks like we all have some connection with the Professor, I trust his judgment with whom he chose to call friend. . " Why after all this time did skulls choose to reappear now? In my nightmares the skulls never spoke. Who or what was that voice from the skeletons and what is its connection to the Professor? Thoughts swirl round and round through Radriels head. . Too much to absorb at the moment, he takes a seat on the floor of the barn and stares at the gruesome scene lost in thought. -Posted with Wayfinder
Radriel peers intently over the Deputys shoulder as the Deputy searches the body. "any idea who this is? Or why he attacked us " His voice comes out rough and barely audible damaged from the earlier scream. . -Posted with Wayfinder
with no skeletons remaining in the inn "let's go help out Deputy and Hector " once exiting the Inn and noticing the strange lights coming from the barn, Radriel heads directly to the barn. On his way to the barn he casts http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/divine-favor -Posted with Wayfinder
Understood. Thanks for the heads up . Enjoy the trip. happy wife happy life as the saying goes. . -Posted with Wayfinder
Round 7?? Radriel will continue attacking the same skeleton with his Monks flurry using the Guidance bonus on his first attack (thanks)
[i]Radriel lands a direct strike to the Skeletons chest. . His fist continues through the monster pulverizing it's spine. . The skeleton explodes into dust. . The dust cloud flashes gold at first and then crackles with what looks like golden static electricity before settling to the floor.[i] -Posted with Wayfinder
@Zaga [/url] As to the crit range, I read it differently than you do. . But I admit it is not clear. . I also don't think it is clear by RAW as you stated. It's because I found there to be gray area there that I asked Bone Man the question. . Whichever way he rules it, I am fine with. -Posted with [url=http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arcanosoft.wayfinder]Wayfinder
Vishnya is less flashy. Even his smite evil shall be understated. Thats how I pictured Vishnya. As an Oracle he might be more serene looking into otherworldly domains. Contrast that with Radriel: as a Warpriest, one of the gods he worships is Ragathiel (god of righteous vengeance). So while he Radriel is preternaturally Wise for his age and has an Iron Will he also has a chip on his shoulder (probably as a reaction to those horrid nightmares he sometimes has)
Yes my hands or whatever part of my body glow a golden color when being used in an attack. The glow originates in my torso and flows to the attacking limb. The displays will definitely intensify when I confirm a crit. Think of it as my Ki originating from my core or the center of my being rather than obvious Strength and Muscle. But as Radriel is often alone in precarious positions as a scout, he can as a free action suppress the displays of his Empowered Strikes. It would be pretty damn inconvenient to go through all the trouble of sneaking up on someone to take them out quietly, only to have my Empowered Strikes give away my position like a torch in the darkness.
Go to Youtube Bruce Leeroy. As soon as I saw your question I immediately thought of Bruce Leeroy. lol That's pretty much how I think Radriel looks when fighting. Just try to update it in your mind from 80's special effects to present day.
@Bone Man: I have a question on what my crit range is for my unarmed attacks. It has not come up yet because my rolls have been crappy. Standard unarmed attacks have crit of 20/x2/B. All mindblades have a crit range of 19-20/x2/P,B,S. However it was not mentioned specifically within the Soulknife Deadly Fist archetype. Empowered Strikes from Deadly Fist: :
Empowered Strikes (Su)
-------------------------------------------------------------------- Form Mind Blade from standard Soulknife: :
Form Mind Blade (Su) As a move action, a soulknife can form a semi-solid weapon composed of psychic energy distilled from her own mind. A soulknife must choose the form of her mind blade at 1st level. She can either form it into a light weapon, a one-handed weapon, or a two-handed weapon. Once chosen, her mind blade stays in this form every time the soulknife forms her mind blade. The light weapon deals 1d6 points of damage, the one-handed weapon deals 1d8 points of damage, and the two-handed weapon deals 2d6 points of damage. All damages are based on a Medium-sized creature wielding Medium-sized weapons; adjust the weapon damage as appropriate for different sized weapons. In all forms, the mind blade has a critical range of 19-20/x2. A soulknife with powerful build or any similar ability forms an appropriately-sized mind blade dealing the size-appropriate amount of damage. If the soulknife's chosen form is a light weapon, she may choose to form two light weapons when forming her mind blade if she so chooses, but she suffers the standard penalties for two-weapon fighting. Regardless of the weapon form a soulknife has chosen, her mind blade does not have a set damage type. When shaping her weapon and assigning abilities to it, the soulknife chooses whether it will deal bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage. The soulknife may change the damage type of an existing mind blade, or may summon a new mind blade with a different damage type, as a full-round action; otherwise, the mind blade retains the last damage type chosen every time it is summoned. The blade can be broken (it has hardness 10 and 10 hit points); however, a soulknife can simply create another on her next move action. The moment she relinquishes her grip on her blade, it dissipates (unless she intends to throw it; see below). A mind blade is considered a magic weapon for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction and is considered a masterwork weapon. A soulknife can use feats such as Power Attack or Combat Expertise in conjunction with the mind blade just as if it were a normal weapon. She can also choose her mind blade for feats requiring a specific weapon choice, such as Weapon Focus and Improved Critical. Powers or spells that upgrade weapons can be used on a mind blade. The soulknife can use feats such as Weapon Finesse that work on light weapons with her mind blade, but such feats only work on mind blades in a light weapon form. Even in places where psionic effects do not normally function (such as within a null psionics field), a soulknife can attempt to sustain her mind blade by making a DC 20 Will save. On a successful save, the soulknife maintains her mind blade for a number of rounds equal to her class level before she needs to check again, although the mind blade is treated for all purposes as a non-magical, masterwork weapon while in a place where psionic effects do not normally function. On an unsuccessful attempt, the mind blade vanishes. As a move action on her turn, the soulknife can attempt a new Will save to rematerialize her mind blade while she remains within the psionics-negating effect. She gains a bonus on Will saves made to maintain or form her mind blade equal to the total enhancement bonus of her mind blade (see below). The soulknife chooses the appearance of her mind blade, although its shape must reflect the selections the soulknife has chosen: a bludgeoning mind blade would be blunt, slashing would have an edge, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Nowhere in Deadly Fist was a crit range mentioned. So I defaulted back to the standard Soulknife which says In all forms, the mind blade has a critical range of 19-20/x2.
