Rothgarr "Red" Titan-Slayer's page

I hear ye, Perri, I am having same issues. :)

Red will bring his greatsword down on the cougar, landing a solid blow on the cat.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 = 27
Damage: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (2, 4) + 5 = 11
Confirm: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10
Damage: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3) + 5 = 9

Round 1: Red

Red sees the prone Ril and springs to her rescue. He takes a 5' step and brings his greatsword down on the cougar! He pounds his sword on his shield, giving the cougar a healthy target.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 6 + 1 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 3) + 5 = 14
AC: 23

Red whispers to the party, "As ugly as they are, I don't feel right about killing dogs who are not attacking me. We should move past them." Is it automatic or is there a Stealth check? Red will head north at the next intersection if he makes it past the dogs without alerting them.

"Or maybe here's where the goblins got rid of their garbage. Nobody's diving down so let's continue the trail east and north." Red leads the party back toward the dragged trail.

Red leads the party west to the hole, as he is curious about it.

East it is then. Wonder what the goblins could be dragging?

I only have Climb +8 and Swim +4, so the cliff climbing is not really an option and neither is swimming. We will have to take the awful squeezing penalties I guess.

Red checks the ground for tracks, per Ri's suggestion.
Survival: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Red can go first as well. He does not mind.

How about Ri, Red. Esmerelda, Perri, and Shalelu? Two archers at the back, healer in the middle.

Red pounds his fist, "Yeah, let's go kill Ripnugget, Brutus, the goblin dogs, and all the evil goblins!" He follows the elven ranger and tries to help with his Survival skills.

Red is always ready.

Red continues to smile at the elven ranger. "I'm ready to go now."
He looks at the two new ladies, "Will you be joining us?"

"I recently began to appreciate nature more, as you, Shalelu. I will bring you that bugbear's head as gift." Red is a little smitten over the elf and her beautiful eyes and as he is now a ranger too..

Red was a little sad when Shel left and hoped she would be back soon. Buying his new armor cheered up his mood a bit.

When he meets the ladies, "Well met, I am Rothgarr Titanslayer, but you can call me Red. I am the muscle of the group but not its brains." Red points to Perri and Rileth and looks at Esmerelda, "These are my friends. If you heal me, I will call you friend as well." You can all tell Red likes to keep it simple.

I am good to go as well! :)

Seriously, Perri, we're a team, so take the funds.:)

Bow is 630, leaving me 1142 (including the platinum) from my share, and 5 left over from starting for 1147.

Selling my bow and scalemail (+5 AC) should net me 62.5, for 1209.5

My target armor (MW Full Plate +9 AC) is 1650 . . ..

I could simply wait. Or I can spend 400 for MW Banded (+7 AC) and get halfway to the AC benefit of the Full Plate now, I'll just fall back 200 value as I continue upgrading. Or 250 for the non-MW version and only lose 125 value as I upgrade.

Opinions?

I think I've about talked myself into buying the Banded for now, but I still want to hear what you think.

And I expect you to spend your money getting the gear to get better at your stuff!

Perri, Red will lend you 200 gp and if Rileth lends you 250 gp, you can buy the MW Full Plate now. AC is important. Selling my hide armor gets me 9 gp and after the loan, I have 13 gp left, which is enough to survive for a few days until the next treasure find.

Red visits Savah's Armory looking for a +1 Agile Breastplate (valued at 1550 gp).

Thanks all for the ring and the cure potions!

I am happy with the greatsword +1. Someone should take the Ring of Protection +1, but if nobody wants it...:)

Welcome Esmerelda, your healing and aid another bonuses will be much appreciated! That's a sweet AC btw.

I'm sorry to see you go, Shel, as I would have liked the continue with you. But I am willing to continue and give Red another go-around to see where his story takes him.

I am still around as well and I'd be interested in continuing if everyone else agreed to do so. I liked Red and the group's dynamic.

Red will take 3rd level in Ranger.
HPs: +6+1 Con
+1 BAB
+1 intimidate, +1 perception, +1 survival, +1 climb, +2 ranks in swim
Favored enemy: Goblinoid +2
Feat: Improved shield bash

Red smiles when the goblin falls. He walks over to it and picks up its fine greatsword. He examines its weight and feel. "This will do quite nicely." When the party finds the zombies, "They're 20 feet down, I see no need for concern. Let's head south."

Round 2:

Red grimaces in pain as the goblin bites a chunk of his shoulder. He pushes him off with his shield and thrusts his greatsword into its abdomen.

Thrust: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 3) + 4 = 8
HP: 14/24
AC: 19

Sorry for delay all, work got busy before Easter weekend.

Reflex save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Red interposes his shield between himself and the acid to take 2 points of damage.

Round 1:
Red strides up 10' with greatsword and shield and strikes at the mutated goblin but misses poorly.
Strike: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
AC: 19
HP: 20/24

So, I guess that puts Red at 22 of 24? Since he posted 12 of 24 yesterday?

Yep and nonlethal damage healed also. The barbarian gives Perri a big bear hug in gratitude.

Red pats Rileth on the back, "Good to see you're still with us, lady. Hope there are no more of those spawn. Arm's a little sore from killing them." Red laughs boisterously, despite his body being beaten and cut all over. With a heal, ready to finish this place too.

May I get those 10hp, Perri? Posted at same time.

Round 1:
Red grimaces as the creature's claw draws blood and slashes the spawn.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 3) + 4 = 8
AC: 19
HP: 12/24 + 2 nonlethal

Red will wait for Perri to take a shot with his arrow so as not to to provide the creature cover.

Surprise Round:

"We have found the enemy!" Red grips his greatsword and jumps down on the creature, using momentum to slash it with his greatsword!

Nonlethal damage from fall: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Attack+ higher ground: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 4 + 1 = 16
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 6) + 4 = 12
HP: 16/24 +2 nonlethal damage

"No objections - I will go first." Red bangs his greatsword against his shield.

That works for me too.

Let's move on, then.

Actually, I wrote a post directed at you, Ri, and was waiting on an answer. Guess you did not see it. Never mind then.

Red ponders, "Rileth, I am not all that familiar with magic. In fact, all magic, except magic granted by the gods, tends to creep me out. But did anyone else notice that when the quasit cut her wrist and summoned that beast, the glow of the smaller triangular pool diminished noticeably. The Thassil...yeah that pool. Is that important?" Italicized language was conveyed by GM.

Not to be the materialistic one, but did the devil have treasure? Maybe some detect magic? Even potions would be helpful.

Red ends rage and falls to one knee fatigued. "That little devil..tough as nails." He then picks up his shield. He looks back at Erylium's corpse. "She have any treasure on her?"
Hit Points: 16/24 + 1 nonlethal

Perri, given that great damage roll and that you missed by 1, why not use the Hero Point to add +4 after the fact to make that strike a hit? You rolled almost max damage. I don't see the logic of using the HP to take another attack. I am not criticizing, just making sure you were aware of the +8/+4 use.

Well, Fort saves are my best save.
Fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Round 5:
Red moves 5' back from the devil and tries to bring his sword down on Erylium.
Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (3, 2) + 9 = 14
Rage rounds used: 5/7
AC: 14
HPs: 20/28 -1 nonlethal

Round 4:
As his full-round action, Red will continue to resist the spell, aware that the devil could try and slash his throat with her dagger, when suddenly he starts to feel his arms and limbs move.
Will save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Rage rounds used: 4/7
AC: 14
HPs: 23/28

Damn Will saves...my weakness. :)
Will save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Red tries in vain to resist the devil's magic, but he feels his muscles stiffen until he cannot move. Rileth and Shel, make it pay for moving!

Round 3:

Realizing that his inaccuracy with the greatsword in one hand could cost the team, the raging Red decided to go all out and to the heck with defense! He dropped his shield as a free action, gripped his greatsword with 2-hands, and tried to flank the tiny devil.

If the sinspawn was standing in the pool, it can't be that deep, correct? It doesn't look acidic, right? :) Even if it's difficult terrain, Red can reach the flanking square with Rileth. Let me know if this is ok.

Red wades through the pool and moves to flank with Rileth, bringing the sword down on the outsider.
Attack+rage+flank: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 20
Damage: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 4) + 9 = 19
Rage rounds used: 3/7
AC: 14
HPs: 23/28

Round 2:

Red moves around the pool and attacks the devil.
Raging attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12
If Perri missed, that's a miss!
Rage rounds used: 2/7
AC: 17
HPs: 23/28

"Huh...what? Oh, hey Rileth. That's right - we're in danger."

Realizing that Shel may be in danger, Red takes a 5' step toward the ugly creature and rages! He tries to plunge his greatsword into the creature's gut.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 2 = 14
Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 3) + 6 = 11
Rage rounds used: 1/7
AC: 17
HPs: 23/28

Will save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Red eager to try out his new combat style steps into the room. "Let's check it out, Shel, and any nasties come out, we'll take care of them!" He bangs his greatsword against his steel shield and steps inside, making his way to the other end where the pool is bubbling.

Red leans down and pats Shel on the back with a smile on his face. "Great form and skill with your daggers. Impressive!" 2 confirmed critical strikes with sneak attack - that was nice!

The game hit the slow down button - guess that happens after leveling. Hoping we can continue exploring.

Rage rounds restored - great. Just missing some hps - I say let's go forward. Eager to try out this greatsword/shield combo.
