Sarosha's page

Got my Chronicle. Looks great, thanks!

Well done, Pathfinders!

And well done GM! Thanks for running!

Wehndy Will DC14: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (7) + 0 = 7

This time Wehndy succumbs to the fear, running heedless down the stairs to the lower portion of the warehouse and hiding amid the crates.

Sarosha cries out in anger and turns her attention to the sorceress.

Mwk Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Wehndy Will DC14: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (18) + 0 = 18 Shaken 1 round.

Sarosha turns her attention to the spellcasting woman.

Mwk Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Wehndy moves closer 5 ft and strikes at the warrior next to her.

Bite, Shaken: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 4 - 2 = 5 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Sarosha fires at the nearest Aspis Blue.

Mwk Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Wehndy rushes over to the guard office. Double move @40ft

We have no quarrel with the Kortos Consortium. If we work together we may both benefit.

Diplomacy Aid Another: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 Good enough for Aid Another. :-)

@Avendar sure. I have a good shot at that door if any Aspis come that way. Removing one of the barricades.

On the map, the red circle-slashes indicate where we barricaded a door. The red angled lines at the Northern secret door indicate crates moved to take away hiding places. Sarosha is on a stack of crates, hopefully hard to reach, and Wehndy is being lookout at the Western double doors. The ladder leading to the South office door has been removed into the warehouse. Faeran is hiding.

Nobody made friends with the dog, or was able to use the trap.

AFAIC we're as ready as we're gonna be.

@GM Actually, "b" is listed as a possible entrance. Do we see how?

I have Extended Reduce Person thanks to a trait, so if Wehndy (or someone else) can keep watch for anyone with snake emblems I should have plenty of time to cast it and plenty of time to use it when the Aspis arrive.

Does someone want to wait in the office and listen for doorknobs being jiggled? Same for doors "e" and "f" -- it would be nice to know when somebody outside tries them.

Sarosha suggests a series of simple hand signals to notify of noises, intruders, or "all safe", so our communication doesn't give us away.
If we have enough time and Aid Anothers, can we get the DC's up to 20?[/ooc]

[dice=Aid Another, "d"]d20+0[/dice]
[dice=Aid Another, "e"]d20+0[/dice]
[dice=Aid Another, "f"]d20+0[/dice]

Given enough time, Sarosha and Wehndy will try to move crates near secret door "c" in order to prevent intruders from hiding behind them. The goal being to create a funnel of Difficult Terrain that can't be jumped on or over easily.

I can supply a Grease spell to the trap effort, but it won't last long.

Sarosha looks for stacked crates (or crates that can be stacked) for her to take a sniper position with a good view of the doors. Preferably in the stacks between "b" and "5".

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

She also takes the ladder from room "d" to remove that as a point of ingress.

No relevant Craft skills. :-( Her plan is to use Reduce Person on herself and be a sniper from atop a (difficult terrain) stack of crates.

Wehdny will position herself within striking range of the Northern secret door and the big double "a" doors.

Stealth: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Edit: Good idea, Avendar. If the party agrees, Sarosha adds her meager skills to the bracing/blocking effort.

Suggest we leave doors "a" and secret door "c" open. "a" because it's the natural entry point and won't cause suspicion, and "c" to give them a false sense of sneaking up on us. If we can, we should use the trap kit on door "c".

Will we be able to know the Kortos and Aspis members by their clothing or some other feature?

Let us make haste to the warehouse then.

Sarosha uses her own wand to heal herself.

AoO Wehndy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Can't imagine Laszo is still standing after that onslaught.

Sarosha moves Move action down to get a better shot at the beetle.

Mwk Crossbow, into melee: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 5 - 4 = 13 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

If Laszo is still up, resolve that at him instead.

Does Wehndy get an AoO for that thrown bomb?

Reflex DC14: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Sarosha evades most of the explosion, moves closer Move action, and fires her crossbow again.

Mwk Crossbow, into melee: 1d20 + 5 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 5 - 4 = 10 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Wehndy moves behind 5 ft step South and tries to bite the ratman alchemist.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Sarosha puts 10gp toward the barkeep's silence.

***

Sarosha pulls out her crossbow at shoots at Laszo.

Mwk Crossbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Wehndy moves up to engage the rat-man as well.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8

If the pearl divers knew you were undercutting them with fake pearls, I bet they'd be pretty angry.

Sarosha looks around the tavern.

I've known places that went up in flames for less.

Intimidate: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

Why don't tavern owners ever get a night off? You've earned one.

Diplomacy, Aid Another: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15

It may help to know that the owner of the Overflwing Oyster is involved in creating fake pearls and selling them on the black market.

I think it's time for a little intimidation. Can we catch the owner by himself somehow? Perhaps a distraction in a back room to get him there, where we can confront him with our knowledge?

Or simply pose as a potential buyer and do it all quietly in plain sight.

First and Third are my thoughts. I wonder if we can convince the tavern owner to close down for "repairs" for the day. And the alchemist sounds like someone who should be stopped, permanently.

Votes:
First: Faeran, Cezawynna, Mierin, Sarosha
Second: Avendar, (Mierin)
Third: Faeran, Cezawynna, Avendar, (Mierin), Sarosha

Regardless of Ezren's votes, it looks like First and Third are our winners. First first?

You can still watch out for me, Ako. :-)

Yay! Thanks for GM'ing, Amazing Red.

Well, at least they're as incompetent as we are sometimes.

Sarosha tries her crossbow at Halli.

Crossbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Viper slithers closer and strikes out at Halli.

Fangs of Mayhem! Or at least being late for dinner: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9 Damage = 1 NL + poison DC9

Viper HP 2/3

Viper Reflex DC12: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Summoned Viper avoids most of the flame, then 5 ft slithers over to bite the warm thing that keeps hurting it.

Fangs of Death! Or at least mild unpleasantness: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13 Damage = 1 NL + poison DC9

Viper HP 2/3

Sarosha takes the opportunity of Halli stepping out of melee range to throw another acid blob at her.

Acid Splash, vs. touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Viper Will: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Viper's secondary eyelids save it from the color spray. It turns on the new threat.

Thanks for the heads-up. Viper attacks Halli instead.

Viper strikes at Deandre.

Bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17 Damage = 1 nonlethal + poison DC9

Sarosha readies a spell for when Hallie casts.

Acid Splash, vs touch, into melee: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 - 4 = 1 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

A viper appears behind Deandre at strikes!

Bite: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Damage: 1d2 - 2 ⇒ (2) - 2 = 0 + poison minimum 1 nonlethal damage

Poison (Ex) Bite—injury; save Fort DC 9; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d2 Con damage; cure 1 save.

Sarosha pulls out her crossbow and waits for Hallie to start casting.

Wehndy takes her shot as Deandre stands up.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6

With Halli's force missile, Wehndy blinks out of existence back to her home plane.

Sarosha begins summoning a creature into the spot recently vacated.

Wehndy AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23 Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 8

Sarosha tries to pick out which Deandre is the correct one.

Acid Splash, vs touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Wehndy also tries to bite Weaver.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13 Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Sarosha casts a spell, and a gooey, slippery puddle oozes out of the flagstones under the muggers' feet.

Front three opponents need Reflex DC14 to not fall prone.

Wehndy, with preternatural 40 ft speed, moves through the party to attack Deandre. Assuming she's the one in front.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Guess it doesn't matter whether she falls prone or not for that abysmal roll to be resolved into a miss.

Ah, missed that part, Faeran. By all means, loot the place. :-)

I think we need to return the requested items to their owner, then report our findings to the Society.

No. The contents of this box were promised to us by its owner, with th exception of certain items to be returned to him. The rest of the warehouse is not his to give, nor ours to take.

However, I can always use an alchemist's fire.

She moves to take the mahogany box and one alchemist's fire from the crate, and exit the warehouse.

Help me brace the crate before it falls through.

Sarosha moves as many long pieces of wood as she can find underneath the crate, so that it's supported by the floor on both sides.

Skill check needed?
Intelligence: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (9) + 0 = 9 Yeah, could really use some help here.

Sarosha looks around for lumber that can be used to brace the gap under the crate.

I lived in Silver Spring (the tippy top of the Washington DC diamond) for a few years, about mumblecough years ago.

Wonderful town. I still miss the Ethiopian food in Adams Morgan.

Sarosha examines the crate.

Intelligence: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (13) + 0 = 13

Wehndy strikes at the rat near her.

Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Sarosha backs away 5 ft step, not comfortable with being so close to the action, and fires off a spell at the farthest rat next to Avendar.

Acid Splash, vs touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Sarosha and Wehndy move into the warehouse. Sarosha casts Light in the middle of the warehouse right where it says "1C", circle added and watch for any movement.

Perception Sarosha: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Perception Wehndy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Map?

Ooh, we may be in luck.

Glancing around her to make sure no passersby take notice, Sarosha moves out to retrieve the key, glancing into the boat as she goes.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

If she retrieves it,

Well, who wants to go first?

Great. Just what I need is to be arrested for burglary on my second mission. Guess we'll just have to quick and careful.

Ready to move when everyone else is.

Does your friend have anyone who may have a spare key to the warehouse? We are mostly kinda sorta a little bit law-abiding Pathfinders, and it would not reflect well on the Society for us to be caught in the act of burglary.

Sarosha's tone lightens.

You're being dishonest with your donors, who think they're giving life-saving medicines to your orphans. By cheating them, you risk all of them refusing to donate. What will you do then?

We will report this, but it appears you're doing good work here. I, for one, will recommend you stay, perhaps with a little more supervision.

And when you're "spicing" up your tea, remember that you are responsible for the safety of many children.

If we're trying to bluff her into telling the truth, everyone can try to Aid Another -- my attempt gets +2 for each one that beats DC10. No penalty for failure.

Sarosha breaks her silence, unsatisfied that her question is not asked.

I've been through this recently, so I was taking a back seat.

Auntie, let's cut to the chase. We know you've been double-dealing. If you come clean now you may be able to keep your job. What are you doing with the extra supplies you're getting?

Bluff: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17

Wehndy pulls an official looking scroll out of Sarosha's backpack and waits for Sarosha to request it.

Bluff, Aid Another: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (3) + 0 = 3

Wehndy's lack of human emotion hampers her efforts to help, however.

Sarosha tries to make friends with the children playing outside.

Oh, marbles! I used to have quite the collection when I was younger. Are you going to try for that big blue one? Are you boys living in Auntie Baldwin's home? It's nice that you have time to play, I think that's important. But chores are important too -- what chores do you do?

Diplomacy, Gather Information: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Yeah, whatever, creepy stalker lady. Can we go back to playing marbles now?

Very well, then. I guess we're off.

Excuse me, ma'am, but do you have any knowledge of Auntie Baldwin's abuse of your generosity, or are you asking us to evaluate the rumors? Can you tell us what rumors there are?

Well done, Pathfinders!, Sarosha chirps.

I believe next we planned to visit Ollysta Zadrian at the Temple of the Shining Star.

To try the gold key in the steel box lock.

Can Mierin use Mage Hand to try the key?
