Shinkeer Aswander's page

A stoic man of mixed Tian and Kellid ancestry sits in quietly in the back of the Lodge, reading through a stack of Chronicles. Looking up at disturbance, his eyes widen and his face cracks into a wide smile.

Quickly rising, he strides across the room and embraces the newcomer. "Des! It is good to see again, my friend!"

Looking down, he pets the wolf's head and ruffles his ears. "And you too, Sahrek."

Good to see you, Des!

Now that we are of a higher level, I'm tempted to bring my alchemist. He went through EotT, and has some Wardens credits. I think he might be in the correct level range (perhaps higher than most), but he might be more in line with group as far as power.

Shin vows to be more prepared next time as he follows the party back to civilization.

Will be leveled up today. No Day Job

Shin drops the medusa's body one she goes slack. Searching through his gear, he shakes his head. "I carry nothing to aid of companion."

Somewhat mollified, Shin begins reciting a Iroran koan in his head to calm his emotions and maintain his grasp on the snake woman. "I'm good enough...I'm smart enough...and doggone it, people like me..."

Glaurung misses while Pad grapples and pins the medusa in the end.

Shin grunts to himself in indignation for being mistaken for a gnome.....

Shin's lets out a gasp of surprise as the medusa breaks free from his grip.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30

Frowning in determination, Shin steps forward and tries to grapple her again.

Grapple: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (14) + 24 = 38
Move Action Maintain (pin): 1d20 + 24 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 24 + 5 = 40

"Some put a bag over her head!" Shin yells out, then close his eyes, and holds on for all he is worth.

Half wishing he was still blind, darts into the room and tries to grapple the snake headed woman.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Reroll: 1d20 + 10 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 4 = 23 I don't think I've used my reroll

Grapple: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (17) + 24 = 41

Shin bows to Nalshene and Pad. Casting a look at Narshala, he says. "In repayment for your preparedness, please allow me to pay for the removal of your companion's blindness."

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Blinded, Shin sighs loudly and stumbles forward.

Shin nods in thanks to Amsheager.

As the force cage disappears or disintegrates, Shin jumps up from his seated position and nods. "I am ready when you are. Where to next?"

Shin sit in a lotus position within his cage, meditating. It take a few long moments before he responds to inquiries. "I am here, Master Pad. I have no way of escaping. Any help or advice would be most appreciated."

Shinkeer can't do anything from within the cage.

Ref (forcecage): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18
Ref (lightning): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Shin finds himself too slow to avoid the cage of force, but manages to partially dodge the lightning bolt.

Finding himself trapped, he conjures and hurls a snowball at the southern devil.

RTA: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20
Cold Damage: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 4, 2, 2) = 16 DC 19 Fort or staggered for a round.

Thanks. Took a little time to get back into the swing of thing. Here now.

Shin was staggered, so he'd just move up to the devil

Will: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

Shin gets out a similar wand and heals himself as well.

Infernal healing. 6 chrgs

I'm out until the 3rd of Sept.

Shin smiles as he old form returns, then steps over to punch the demon with his pummeling strikes.

Flurry: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (5) + 16 = 21
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (6, 7) + 6 = 19

Flurry: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 18
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1) + 6 = 10

Flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (6, 8) + 6 = 20

Flurry: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (7, 5) + 6 = 18

Flurry: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (1, 6) + 6 = 13

Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (12) + 16 = 28
Extra Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (4, 1) + 6 = 11

If that Crit confirms, all attacks hit per Pummeling Style and add all damage before deducting DR. Strikes count as cold iron, lawful, magic, silver.

Sorry, Glau is correct and I became busy with preparations and air travel, neglecting to alert you. Apologies again.

Sharkeer thrashes about the tank, trying to break free from the demon's grasp.

CMB: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (5) + 26 = 31

If he managed to break free, he will try to porpoise out of the exit

Can Sharkeer swing out of the tank opening? If so, where is it?

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Sharkeer ignores the stinking cloud, likely because he has no nostrils, then thrashes around to bite the demon.

Stunning Bite?: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30 Can you use the monk stunning fist with a natural bite? If so, DC 25
Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Bite: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Ac is currently 36

Sharkeer moves down and tries to grab the iron chest in his mouth and take it the opening for his companions to grab. Once that is done, he will swim back and try to grab the sword and remove it.

Shinkeer - now Sharkeer - .

Hilarious!

Sharkeer swims down toward the corpse and uses his shark senses to check for anything untoward.

Perception: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (7) + 27 = 34 +2 for traps.

Shin smiles and nods, allowing himself to be transformed.

Shin glances at his hesitating companions. "If any have a spell to transform me into something that swims, I will take a look."

Shin opens his mouth to say something, then closes it, waiting to see if anyone responds to Glau's question.

Attending GenCon. Will have little time to post.

Shin darts forward and tries to grapple the woman.

Grapple: 1d20 + 24 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 24 + 2 = 45

Shin follows Glau, hoping the gnome knows what she's doing.

Shin shrugs as his spell wears off. "Sure"

Ref: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 17 damage after cold resist/5

Shin moves up and tries to grapple the devil.

Grapple: 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (16) + 26 = 42

Do you need a Will Save?: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (9) + 19 = 28

Shin stares at the devil. "What is it?" He asks his more educated companions. He quickly casts a spell, causing his muscles to grow and ripple.

bull's strength

Shin follows along, feeling a little turned around.

Shin looks on in confusion. "What just happened?"

Sorry, was away this weekend for the holiday.

Shin uses his wand of armoring (can't remember if I did.) and readies for the coffins to be opened.

What's DNA?.......

Shin shakes his head. "I was never good at riddles...." He then moves to follow the party.

Shin nods in agreement and follows.

Shin joins in the search!

Perception: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (1) + 27 = 28 Not very well, apparently. +2 for traps, +3 if it's in stone.

Shin raises his eyebrows as the ghost appears and begins questioning them. Glancing at his more educated companions, he begins peering around the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (7) + 27 = 34

Shin sighs and follows, stepping onto the carving.

Shin hangs back with Glaurung, waiting to see what is discovered.

Fort: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Shin moves into the room, and begins to see his companions react to the air. "I do not have any restoring scrolls, but I could cast a spell granting you the strength of a bull."

Shin looks around as well.

Perception: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (11) + 27 = 38

Shin nods, holding the flashlight helping Pad by handing tools and pointing out tricky areas.

Shin stands back, letting the more deft handed gnome take care of thew locks and traps, as he watches with interest.

Shin moves up to the leader and throws a punch!

Stunning Fist!: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (13) + 15 = 28
Damage: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (3, 5) + 6 = 14 DC 25 Fort or stunned for a round.

Before moving on, Shin uses his infernal wand on himself. 5 chrgs.

Once confronted with the next foes, Shin takes a step northeast, conjures a snowball and hurls it at the midle elemental.

RTA: 1d20 + 13 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 13 - 4 = 18
Snowball: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 2, 2, 4) = 19 DC 19 Fort or staggered for a round.

Can't edit map, atm.

Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

Corrected: 46 damage taken
