"So, lets head off to White Estrid, shall we? Now would be good"
"That was it for here. But I think we now have to go on to the other houses and do the same thing. Again and again"
Haldern would detect evil on the brains and, assuming that they ARE evil: "Unless somebody strongly objects I suggest that we kill those brains"
When in doubt, smite and charge. When not in doubt, smite and charge. Haldern and Jensal charge in for for So, 144 or 288 damage depending on crit for
Jensal manages to dodge nimbly out of the way but Haldern takes some damage As a swift action Jensal and Halden declares smite on the woman and charges
So, 132 or 264 damage depending on crit .
Haldern will be outside in the air (say, 30 feet up)
Sorry, I'm also confused as to what direction the bad guys are coming from. Haldern will, if possible, be mounted and outside in a position where he can charge
"Greetings your highness. Yes, I was, and am, a close ally and I'd like to think friend of Queen Senna. I admit that I rarely carouse. No doubt a character flaw of mine but I find it very hard to ever relax to that extent."
Pretty much staying in my corner, observing.
Halden isn't much of one for buffs but he WILL throw Honeyed Tongue up. He and Jensal have both cleaned their armour and both are attending. He'll basically be grimly standing in a corner, awaiting trouble, politely rebuffing any attempts to involve him in conversation. It would be a VERY low DC sense motive to realize that he is NOT happy and is expecting some kind of trouble. He will be constantly scanning the crowd with detect evil. Yes, I know that is fairly obvious. He doesn't care
I'm off at a con so will be unavailable until at least Sunday. Also fighting a cold so, combined with con crud, don't be too surprised if that is delayed :-(
Sir Haldern will go to Sennas area in case things happen during the night. He'll spend long hours praying to Iomedae but will make sure that he gets enough sleep to not be impaired in the coming fight.
Dalaston is probably best for the family. They have contacts and allies there and so should be as safe there as anywhere
"There is a very, very foul plot afoot. Its necessary that you take my wife and children and leave this city at once. I'm not at all sure that I believe it, but apparently a foul evil monster has set up the entire city to teleport. That teleport will fail but, in so doing, will kill thousands. We're going to try to stop it, of course. But our success is by no means certain. We are allowed to warn you and my family, but no more."
I guess you're right. I'm still very unhappy that we're essentially just taking this monster at its word. But definitely need to see Senna and get her input on this. And I do need to safeguard my family.
In a move that I'm SURE will surprise you Haldern calls dibs on the Holy Book penned by a saint :-) :-)
A mere two rounds later, Haldern returns.
To NotBartholm, assuming that he is still here
"Telling the truth and speaking something that is factually accurate isn't the same thing. Kenjakana, does what he is saying even seem possible to you?"
Speaking quite openly "So, do we believe that this thing can do what it claims and play its foul game? Or do we just kill it here and now and hope that it is bluffing. Unfortunately, its not as if it is in any way "safe" to believe it and act accordingly. If it is just bluffing the safe act is to kill it now"
"1st, I guarantee not to utter your name if you tell me it. I like to know who I'm dealing with. 2nd, I'm having a lot of trouble believing that this threat is anything other than a bluff. It is much easier to claim that you have such powers than it is to acquire such powers. WITHOUT in any way activating this RuneWall, is there any way to convince me of what you are saying? Perhaps if Kenjanka was permitted to examine the wall she could corroborate what you say. 3rd, I'm unclear of the terms of your deal. Are we allowed to just kill you when you try and attack the first Linnorn King?"
"First, tell us who we are dealing with. What is the nature of this contest?"
"I do not intend to go on a fishing expedition with magical detection of lies. You have been accused by another member of the Royal Household and denied specific allegations. We will ask you only about those specific allegations. Now, do you agree to this or not? If you don't, you leave us little choice but to conclude that you are lying to us"
"And you would, of course, be willing to verify what you are saying under magic?"
Haldern ... knows he is not the most perceptive of people.
Nobody else is talking so I will. If they wanted subtlety somebody else would have spoken up before this "We have been talking to Thorbjorn about the death of his father, and he has an interesting tale to tell. He admits to killing his father, but he claims that he did it because you convinced him to do so. That you talked to him of his fathers lack of honour, that you drugged his father to make the murder easier. What do you say to these accusations? Accusations made by a man with no reason to lie." On his answer. Not that I really expect to catch him in a lie :-(
Sorry. Would cast Honeyed Tongue on myself but that is it.
We DO loot the Dragon Treasure first, of course :-)
"Certainly I will help to put your fathers soul at rest and to stop the evil it is currently doing. You have my word on it"
"I'm sorry, but we can't let you just decide your own punishment. You must face justice. If the court feels the way you do then perhaps they will allow you to seek redemption. But it is not YOUR decision to make. Please, come with us peacefully. I'd really prefer not having to hurt you" On the off chance
"it seems possible that he was using more than honeyed words to convince you. Perhaps you were magically compelled in some way? Is there any way to determine this now? Perhaps by communing with the Gods? At any rate, I think we should at least talk to this Bartholm. We probably should take this cache of loot, also. It can be put to better use than lying in a Dragons Horde"
"Yes, please tell us exactly what happened. Possibly it can help either you or to put your father to rest"
"You admit to having slain your father? Is there any reason we should not arrest you and return you to face justice for that act?"
Haldern walks over to the Mouse, carefully places its limbs together as if he is sleeping, and covers it with a cloak. He whispers to it
He turns towards Thorbjorn and, quite openly, detects evil on the man. "I agree with Kenjanka. You need to tell us what is going on. NOW!"
Not being able to charge it from where he is, Haldern will just cast Holy Sword on his lance and move a little. [ooc]I've lost track of what the blue box thingy is on the map. Does it block charge lanes[/ooc[
If that doesn't work (wrong golem or it doesn't go down) he'd whale on whichever golem Daniel was on. Would smite the dragon regardless. So, if I'm fighting the golem the new totals (same rolls) would be :
lance: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33 for damage: 1d8 + 28 ⇒ (7) + 28 = 35
lance: 1d20 + 21 - 10 ⇒ (13) + 21 - 10 = 24 for damage: 1d8 + 28 ⇒ (6) + 28 = 34
lance possible crit: 1d20 + 21 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 21 - 5 = 29 for damage: 2d8 + 56 ⇒ (3, 2) + 56 = 61 All attacks do NOT ignore Admantine DR :-( Jensal WILL power attack but DOES smite. Magic, good aligned bite: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17 for damage: 1d8 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21
Ah. Ok. The lance is +3 magical (and so also counts as both cold iron and silver). Not adamantine :-). And, of course, against evil targets that I"m sniping no DR applies (although hardness still does). Against non aligned things with hardness I tend to charge a lot :-) :-). The longsword is just magic. Nothing special
for Haldern and Jensal then both declare smite against the dragon, 5 ft step and attack it. (smite, power attack)
for
for All attacks ignore DR Jensal will NOT power attack but DOES smite. Magic, good aligned for
I think its up to date but my sheet may have transcription errors (I cut and paste from Hero Lab). At any rate, my lance is a War lance and is the weapon that I almost always use. The Inheritors Light is very much a backup weapon and is NOT currently being wielded. Did that answer your question? If not, I'll need more detail :-)
If Halden ended up injured he'd lay on hands as a swift. In any event, he'd step up and full attack. Note = Blades above and below applies together with outflank.
for
Haldern charges the golem (charge, power attack, higher ground)
102 points of damage assuming it hits. Jensal does (charge, power attack, higher ground
I charge with lances. I spit on DR :-). You never answered my earlier question wrt how far back I could move so I'm unsure where I am both in location and initiative when the wall goes down
Still battering on the force field one way or the other. Done
Haldern calls out to his alllies
If nobody can bring him in then he is likely functionally out of this fight, taking at least about a minute to get in Long and boring math: If nobody replies, he'll do one of the following depending on the geography off the map. If space allows, he'll back off and charge the barrier. Repeating that every 2 rounds until the barrier goes down If there isn't he'll just attack the barrier. EVENTUALLY it will go down but it will be awhile. If he can charge, then every 2 rounds he does charge damage of d8+28 x 3 - 30
So, its going to take well over a minute to get in even if he can charge
"That certainly looked strange. He seemed to almost be enchanted or something, Yes, I think that we should check it out"
