Rogar Hammertale's page

"now miss... as the ancestors cried at the orc horde.... 'don't judge a dwarf by his tale.'"

Any "sub-optimal" class can still be just as effective as the more popular, advanced classes.

That is some sexy spellbooks

Mmmm GenCon. Never enough time but i am looking forward to it once again

Amazingjob gm. Thank you for a great game!

earlier
Rogar bows graciously as he tucks the onyx jewel safely away.

later..
Rogar attends the paladin's funeral, and writes the brave soul into his tale.

Rogar's tale abruptly stops as he watches the incredible display of Ahriman. "this will truly make a great tale."

He puts away his bow and walks over to the onyx sage jewel as Amenopheus is collecting it. "even as spirits, they fought with their very soul to aid us. Would you allow me the honor of carrying Padrym's Onyx jewel?"

As team prepares to evacuate, Rogar begins a pair of performances - the beginnings of the liberation of the Sages. two triple time performances for the group.

Rogar continues his tale of a Giant king leading his horde of Orcs against a small band of dwarves... how they gave their lives to take out the giant and break up the orcs and save countless lives.

continue inspire courage +2

reflex save, heroism, nL, Dwarf, pfe: 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 1 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 2 - 1 + 3 + 1 = 16 i'll take it - ow

Rogar ducks back away from the ghost, drawing his bow as he goes... before beginning an inspiring tale of good versus evil.

inspire courage +2

she also has a different set of four pc's to target

Rogar steps into the final mindscape...

He watches the stoic dwarf go about his duties.
"Padrym - i see your decisions before us. How does it benefit to brood on past choices? Learn from experience, heed the wisdom of the past... but move forward armed with that knowledge."
diplomacy: 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 28

"What troubles you so much now? The Lich made her own choices. You did not encourage her. You may not have been able to stop her if you tried. It is not your fault another chose that path."

perform(oratory): 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 30

"I see you as one whom i would consult happily in my persuit of the wisdom of the ancestors. I would be honored to spend more time with you. But not now. Now we return together... to end this Lich's goals and correct that which you seem to regret."
diplomacy: 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 25

"no! The knowledge lost woulda be devastating! We must finish freeing the sages!"

kn:religion: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 = 15
kn:arcana: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 = 25

we are not hasted yet.

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 1 + 2 = 24
Rogar shivers at the Howling Agony barely avoided thanks to the Lich.

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 - 1 + 2 = 13

on Rogar's turn..
Rogar briefly pauses his verbal encouragements and will turn to the dragon and step into the mindscape....

Seeing the carnage within, Rogar will attempt to talk it down...

"It is the wisdom of the Ancestors that guide me. You who have flown the skies in their time, and acquired knowledge i could barely conceive of. Surely those learnings have taught you something of learning to stop a moment and look around."
diplomacy: 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 22

"We mortals are but a short lived group and you who carries knowledge must hold fast to you duties. you have an extraordinary opportunity to continue teaching these children the wisdom of the ancestors."

perform (oratory): 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 36

"Enough of this. Find yourself within and escape this trap Tahari has set for you. Release yoruself and bring about your own freedom from her once and for all!"
perform (oratory): 1d20 + 18 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 18 - 1 + 2 = 28

as Rogar shakes his head in the real world... he continues where he left off in his story. free action maintain inspire if the GM allows

One is morale one is circumstance.
I think you get +2 for a stunned target :)

did you use inspire and good hope?

Im not looking to retcon my action. But i stayed a 5foot step away if i needed to hop in.

My turn was based on vordrek staying in... otherwise i would have gone in.

Oh well.

You've been running them perfectly imo.

Moving away is fine. If that is the action i would not reroll distraction as it only gives a little extra movement

Rogar Sees the time dragon remain stationary and looks very concerned... He decides to trust Vordrek to complete his task... He flicks his wrist to produce the scroll of good hope and casts it 7 targets within 30 feet of each other... i either get Karos and Nith or enora... sorry enora. Targeting Karos Kramac Jino Rogar Vordrek Nithrandyl and Tahonikepsu

"As my dwarven ancestors did battle an endless horde of ogre mages, so must we unite to end this foe once and for all!" Inspire Courage for the good guys!

Good Hope: This spell instills powerful hope in the subjects. Each affected creature gains a +2 morale bonus on saving throws, attack rolls, ability checks, skill checks, and weapon damage rolls.
Inspire Courage +2: An affected ally receives a +2 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +2 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls

As for botting - the heal scroll thought makes sense

This enora save is going to be complicated with dhiara's reroll and gallant inspiring

Might i suggest he use the heal scroll he was considering before the div appeared? Get Karos back to full

woot! 3 sages left to free!

"The wisdom of the ancestors... You have seen them for yourself. Our actions are our own.
Nothing can change what has come before....
Accept yourself.
Accept the consequences of your actions.
Acceptance... means you can change the present.
You can move on.
Make the world a better place.
You still have free will. Use it!"
Sense Motive take 10: 10 + 18 - 1 + 2 = 29
Perform(Oratory) take 10: 10 + 18 - 1 + 2 = 29
Diplomacy take 10: 10 + 18 - 1 + 2 = 29

After escaping the mindscape, Rogar will step away from Sinuhotep.

just realized i might not be able to take 10 here as there is a combat going on elsewhere...

Oh me the player agrees with the idea of knock um out.

Rogar is a scarab sage faction, bard of history. He will do everything to save the sages and their jewels

"Free them - their jewels are the source not their bodies.... Knocking them out won't help us!."

Rogar enters into Sinuhotep's Mindscape.

kn:planes: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 33

"deadly creatures... immune to fire, poison and disease, and resistant to electricity, acid and magic. Disease riddled...."

please 5 foot step into the jewel's square.

The Dwarf bard saddens at the sight of such pain...

"Mnesoset. You must stand up. See through the deception of this nightmare. This tragedy was not your fault. See the truth!"

kn:planes: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 25

"Open your eyes. See past your grief. The Div Kabede is tricking you. He is there - the servant of our enemy!"

perception: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 = 18

"Please hear me Scarab Sage! Rise up and fight! It is not your fault! Resist Tahari and this nightmare! Wake up!!!"

kn:planes: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 24

in order of request...

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 8 - 1 + 2 = 19

Rogar looks around at the chaos... and steps into the nearest mindscape orange... was gonna buff but cant target....

Undermine her power and save the sages

i am seeing 4 checks total...

kn:planes: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 15
kn:religion: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 = 13

kn:arcana: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 = 13

i.... can't..... wow.

Rogar stands dumbfounded. completely and utterly shell-shocked

good point - i will use one and save the other.

Heroism and Heightened awareness at start of preparation... 2 scrolls, antiplague,and tripletime 5 minutes before Ritual begins

Rogar will look to be heavily involved in the technical components "May the Ancestors smile upon us..."

Kn:Planes, NL, hero, HA, Scarab boon: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 24

During the Ritual, Rogar will assist with the the execution with all the wisdom of the ancestors..

Kn:Planes, bardic take 20, NL, hero, HA, Scarab boon: 20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 34

Rogar continues to study in the library... no rolls for us in there? Im assuming noone got us for the doorway since it wasn't stated

Rogar will begin researching in the library. because bard...

"You would leave him to rot in this evil place? ok..."

"we should use this for 3 more cures and bring the paladin with us for proper burial."

Rogar offers to keep warch as the others cross. He strings an arrow in his bow and cautiously waits at start of the bridge
perc: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 = 32

"We should make more, but perhaps later..."

Rogar casts detect magic and begins to carefully look around the library..
perception: 1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 1 + 2 + 2 = 25

"these are truly fascinating. The society will be very interested in these notes. This memory extractor is truly a unique and powerful device."

i dont think anyone said who has the cures... so Rogar will hold onto fading light, and Enora should hold onto blood of nethys.

Rogar will take a cursory glance around after successful retrieval of thecontinual flame bauble
perc: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 = 24
"lets move on."

Rogar follows kramac to the next door

kn:arcana: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 9 + 2 + 2 = 29
"a continual flame spell... interesting.

Rogar will recast his spell and perform once more. tripletime again

Rogar will cast detect magic and look around the room before focusing on the pool.

perception: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 2 + 2 - 1 = 14

Rogar looks around, carefully observing various objects of unknown purpose. He pulls out some paper and jots down some notes.
perception: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 9 + 2 + 2 = 30
He stops at a particularily interesting bone. "hmmm... refining process..."

"on to the archives"

sense motive: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37 oh comon!

Rogar shrugs at the obvious lies

Rogar enters each memory... tired from his energy loss, but invigorated by the amazing stories.

Uppn deep reflection... he looks at the Div. "kabede. The necromancer defeated ypu. Trapped you. How did she drain your energy by your use of magic?"
