_Snowball_'s page

Sigh, forgot all this while that Snowball has greater magic fang. Also miss out attack bonus, damage, and that he bypasses DR/magic, if any.

How long does the sickened last for seeing the creature?
fort, water: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 never mind...

Assured now that his master is back, Snowball leaps after the retreating the creature, and rips into it with his maw and claws.

bite, GMF, sickened: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 8 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 - 2 = 6 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 16
claw 1, GMF, sickened: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 14 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 - 2 = 4
claw 2, GMF, sickened: 1d20 + 8 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 1 - 2 = 15 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 - 2 = 5

Snowball continues to retch at the sight of the horrendous-looking creature. [ooc](Curious, what does it look like?)[/dice]

Snowball steps to stand over his master, shielding him with his body. He continues tearing into the man standing beside his master, defending him with his life.

bite, sickened: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 2 = 21 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 - 2 = 3 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 - 2 = 10

Snowball is overwhelmed by the sight of the horrendous creature, and starts retching. He manages, however, to resist the effects of the water, and repel whatever toxins it injected into him.

Furious at the human for taking down his master, and afraid that he would harm his master further, Snowball moves further onto the rock to get a better purchase, turns his back on the monstrosity and continues tearing into the priest.
bite, sickened: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 8 - 2 = 20 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 3 - 2 = 7 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 - 2 = 8
claw, sickened: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 - 2 = 10 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 - 2 = 2
claw, sickened: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 8 - 2 = 24 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 - 2 = 3

fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Snowball is not affected by the poison from the waters even though they make his sneeze. He hops after his master, easily finding purchase on the rocks with sharp claws. As soon as he lands, he bites down on the axe-wielding priest.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Snowball's got acrobatics (jump) +18 so can't fail that jump across. From the path marked, he should be able to avoid the web. Not sure if there's enough rock on that square for him to stand on. If not, please move him one more square north but he'll might get AoO from the two enemies then, so acrobatics tumbling checks below.

Snowball hesitates briefly but quickly heeds his master snarling call and races after him, not quite fast enough but closing rapidly. Like his master, the terrain presents no problem for the cat.

fort: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
climb: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

will: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 Gah!

Snowball, however, stands entralled, ignoring the commands his master gave to follow.

If Meran's countersong works, I'll then post Snowball's actions.

GM, I'm assuming that Garn (and Snowball) can take their turns.

After taking down one, Snowball swiftly leaps around and savages the knight in blue.

Attacking blue. If he goes down, then step forward and transfer to red.
bite, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 8 + 1 = 12 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 1 = 27
claw, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 8 + 1 = 25 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6
claw, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 1 = 17 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6

Obviously not understand Deluge, Snowball hops forward glaring at the man that attacked his master, and attacks with maw and claws.

Attacking green. If he goes down, then transfer to pink.
bite, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 1 = 19 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 = 8 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 1 = 14
claw, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 + 1 = 23 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7
claw, inspire: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 1 = 19 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 1 = 5

Didn't realise I got ninja'd by DM! But first, let me settle Snowball...

Snowball wakes just in time to see his master and the rest of his friends clambering up the spire. Curious to see what interesting sights there, he joins along, hauling himself up the sides of the spire with his sharp claws.

Snowball has climb of +7, so can similarly take 10 to get to the top.

Snowball pads from room to room, following along. He stares, bemused as his master goes through various strange antics and motions, finally staying up on a pole for an hour. Long before that, Snowball has gotten bored (again). Purring contently to himself, he soon dozes off.

Snowball shifts his target to the other bird, much tempted he is to just drag of the carcass of the felled creature for a nice meal.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Snowball rushes in, directed by his master to attack the nearest big bird. Somehow, his master seems both irritated and concerned about the soft-looking man, but a command is a command. He grabs at the leg of the bird, hoping to pull it off balance.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Despite the terrible wounds Snowball has sustained, he continues to press on his attack. He steps up to follow along with the werewolf, then tears into her with his teeth and claws.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Sorry for the late post. Been having a cold over the last few days. Getting better though.

With one enemy taken down, Garn-dinosaur signals for Snowball to go for the last enemy. He charges straight at the woman who smells like a wolf, hoping to bowl her over with his terrible bite.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

Oh yes, I think Snowball took some damage at this post?

With one enemy taken down, from his master's cue, Snowball steps forward and rips into the large wolf.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

At the signal of Garn, Snowball charges out of the bushes straight for the man beside the wolf, aiming to bowl him over as he rips into him with his sharp teeth.

bite vs blue man, charge: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 2 = 20 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 2 = 20

Snowball snarls at the (green) man who attacked his master. He steps forward and leaps forward, fighting with tooth and nail to tear into him.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

On receiving the snarling command of his master, Snowball charges straight towards the nearest (green) bandit.

bite, charge: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 2 = 30 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
crit?: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 2 = 17 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Snowball dutifully follows along, padding silently as he goes along, wincing at times as his master steps of twigs and dried leaves along the way.

stealth: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 +4 if undergrowth

Snowball senses his master's discomfort and mirroring his feelings, starts pacing around, sniffing at miscellaneous objects and snarling randomly.

Snowball paces over to the dinosaur, and sniffs at it curiously. He has seen his master take a similar form, but otherwise, has yet to meet another creature of the form.

His curiosity satisfied, he wanders over near the open door to the forge, settles down near the warmth of the fire and starts to nap.

Since I'm going to bed soon, am going to post my actions for round 2.

Now that Snowball can see his quarry, he takes a step forward and continues tearing into Dalsine.

bite, greater magic fang: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 1 = 27 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 1 = 9 and if it hits trip, greater magic fang: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15
claw, greater magic fang: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 8 + 1 = 20 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 1 = 5
claw, greater magic fang: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 1 = 11 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7

All the above attacks would be against Dalsine's flat footed AC and CMD, with -2 penalty to AC, if he misses his saving throw and is blinded.

The obedient creature that he is, Snowball races towards the location that his master had indicated. Although he similarly is unable to see the hidden target, he can smell it as well. As he reaches, he bites down, hoping to still connect.

bite, greater magic fang: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 1 = 17 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 = 10 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 8 + 1 = 18
miss chance: 1d100 ⇒ 29 --> missed

I similarly did not move Snowball's token, not knowing where the hidden creature is. Again, trouble the GM to move him. Thanks.

With the creature on the ground, it makes an easy target for Snowball who bites and claw into in fury.

bite, prone: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 4 = 22 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
claw, prone: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 8 + 4 = 26 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
claw, prone: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 4 = 22 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Getting the command, Snowball moves straight at the creature snarling with his open maw, biting at its torso.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

If the stalker falls prone due to the grease, Snowball gets +4 to attack. If he doesn't, then trip attempt against the creature's CMD if he hits.

I think the stalker would get an AoO against Snowball.

With the spider slaughtered, Snowball crouches down next to his master, snarling in pain from time to time as he tries to overcome the effects of the poison. He is vaguely aware of his master chanting as he lays his hand on him but otherwise pays it little heed, focused in the pain.

fort, guidance: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 1 = 9 con dmg: 1d3 ⇒ 3
fort, guidance: 1d20 + 7 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 - 2 + 1 = 25
fort, guidance: 1d20 + 7 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 7 - 2 + 1 = 21

Feeling somewhat drained, Snowball drops on the floor locking his paws. Just then, he feels another hand, this one much softer, on his head and a wave of curative magic Piura into him, restoring his constitution. He looks up at the beautiful elven lady and gives her hand a quick lick before settling back down on the floor, quite contented this time.

Thanks for the suggestion of using guidance. Forgot about that actually. And thanks for the restoration. In case anyone else needs it later, Garn has a scroll for that. Beat 2pp purchase.

Snowball howls in pain as he feels bte poison coursing into his body. Slows down by the poison, he nonetheless bites down on the spider with his mighty jaws.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

GM, I think you missed the damage roll for Snowball. Also how long does the staggered effect last?

If you don't mind, I've move Snowball to be beside Garn, where he would naturally be.

perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Snowball, bored with the whole proceedings, similarly fail to notice anything unusual.

Snowball is clearly bored with the briefing, yawning from time to time, and swishing his tail around. He looks at at his master when his head is rubbed, but seeing his attention on the other people in the room, lays his head back onto the floor, falling asleep.

Snowball yelps in pain as the fiend's tendrils slaps hard against his side, cracking some bones. He calms down somewhat though as a refreshing energy sweeps through him, knitting close some of his wounds. Ever focused on his task though, he continues tearing into the beast.

Snowball, oblivious to the conversations about the sun, moon and stars, continue tearing into the monster. However, none of its attacks seem to be getting through. He snarls in frustration.

Looks like Snowball's attacks aren't going to be effective against the beast. Even with max rolls for the claws, no dmg is getting through. So guess he'll just be playing the role of the meat shield. :)

Snowball, not quite understanding why its attacks are not getting, resolves to try harder and continues tearing into the monster.

Despite the imposing monstrosity facing him, Snowball obediently steps up to the monster and tears into it with fang and nail!

Snowball snarls in pain as the poison attacks his system, but calms down somewhat from the brief respite that Leena granted. Completely focused on his foe, however, Snowball continues to rip into the two-headed snake.

Snowball snarls in pain as the snake bites into him, and the poison starts coursing into his body. Obedient to his master's command nonetheless, he fights tooth and nail and rips into the monstrous beast.

Although he looks askance at the huge unnatural creature in front, as the obedient pet that he is, Snowball charge straight towards the hydra as commanded.

Sorry if it isn't clear but Snowball's total AC is 24 right now (18 base, +4 mage armor, +2 barkskin). So all the attacks on him missed. I keep the temp AC adjustments separate, so that I can easily remove them when they're over. If it's confusing, I'll change them.

Following his master's last command, Snowball rips into the nearest enemy, the strange ape-looking humanoid in front of him.

Snowball, getting the command from his master to attack, dashes forward to the invaders.

Snowball purrs in pleasure, looking rather contented with the attention he is getting.

Despite the web entangling him all over, Snowball continues to rip into the woman.

Grappled, Flanking

Some retcon due to the web. Assuming that the web goes off before Snowball and Garn attacks, and added the penalty accordingly. Please remove if the web comes on after.

Snowball, with the signal of Garn in his dinosaur form, rushes forward through the web, and bites down on the woman.

Snowball growls when the wolf, its traditional enemy appears opposite the red crew member, but on command from his master, ignores the canine and tears into the enemy.

bite, flank: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 2 = 12 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 and if it hits trip, flank: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 2 = 25

With the command from his master, Snowball steps up and full out attacks the orange leader, tearing into him with his vicious maw and claws.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23 for dmg: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Snowball, bruised from all the attacks, withdraws from the thick of combat, jumping out of the way of elemental.

Withdraw action. Think might still provoke because it has reach, so acrobatics to avoid.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18

Snowball follows his master's command, dashing up to the air elemental and takes bite out of its mass.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Snowball snarls in pain as the glass creature cuts into him. In return, Snowball continues to bite and rake the creature.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 and if it hits trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26

Whirlwinding? GM, I think you've created a new word! :)

Snowball is slammed a few times by debris tossed about by the whirlwind which he does not dodge in time. However, he manages to dig his claws into the ground just before it arrives to not get picked up.

Once the whirlwind is past, Snowball doggedly (get it?!?) bites and claws into the glass creature.

bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 and if hit trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 for dmg: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Looks like the dice roller doesn't like my pun...

Despite the roar of the whirlwind, Snowball is ever sensitive to the calls of his master. He dashes back up the stairs and bites at the glass creature.

Not sure if he has enough move to attack, or if need double move. Rolling the attack just in case.
bite: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25 for dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 and trip: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 if hits
