Tavarius Desimire's page

With my cousin getting the fate he deserved it should be clear to all that nobody escapes Asmodeous's eye for Justice.

Let it be known that my loyalty and faith for Dispater shall not be questioned.

Looking forward to playing this with my Dark Archives Cleric of Dispater. Hopefully it doesn't cause too many problems.

Woot, a winner is me. PMed.

Tired of calling on Disapter's might Tavarius gives instructions of his own to his companions

"Finish it, Now."

Inspiring Command on Alistina, Fatima and Ruprecht

+2 Atk, AC, CMD and skill checks for 1 round.

Tavarius keeps his staff planted and continues to shout.

"Dispater commands you to accecpt your punishment!"

Channel Negative, always halved: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 3) = 10 =5
Will DC 25 or be dazed for 1 round. Excluding up to 8 allies.

Will: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

Tavarius shrugs off most of the spell but retaliates against the chaotic orcs and their horrific creature.

Tavarius will whip his cloak around himself and call upon the Mantle of the Black Rider.

+3 charisma for 1 minute.

Tavarius pounds his staff into the ground and states "Dispater is displeased." as he becomes visible.

Channel Negative, always halved: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 4, 4) = 14 =7
Will DC 25 or be dazed for 1 round. Excluding up to 8 allies.

No worries, my guess was something like that but I figured it was better to ask than just sit around wondering.

I am totally unclear on who's turn it is based on that last post.

Tavarius immediately cast liberating command on Fenrik.

Can make an escape artist as an immediate action with an extra +18

Still invisible Tavarius will then move up behind Fenrik and cast cure serious wounds on him.

CSW: 3d8 + 9 ⇒ (1, 1, 4) + 9 = 15

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15

Don't forget Tavarius is invisible and has FoM up.

Assuming Tavarius isn't paralyzed or otherwise disabled from some horrible poison or some such...

Tavarius swiftly casts grace, moving quickly out of range before shouting out an invisible blessing to his companions.

"May Dispater guide your blows!"

Cast Bless!

Moved Ruprecht.

Tavarius announces "Deal with the shamen first.

Tavarius then casts invisibility on himself, and moves up using the extra speed from blessing of fervor.

stealth+invisibility-full speed: 1d20 + 5 + 20 - 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 20 - 5 = 35

initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

Tavarius moves up and casts confusion on the chieftain and his mystics.

Will DC 17 or be confused.

Tavarius will take the orcs a as his wards for now.

As they approach Tavarious will cast Freedom of Movement on himself as well as communal resist fire on the group once they approach the canyon.

Resist 20 fire for all PCs

Tavarious will also take his familiar out of his satchel and lets the invisible imp fly around.

Tavarius nods at her order and prepares to move out.

Orders are order, lets go stop the ritual. Tavarius feels strongly that the orders should be followed. OOC I'm interested in either way the story might end and will gladly acquiesce to the party if they prefer the other way.

Once away from the Hellknights a few steps "I see no reason to doubt the Hellknight's drive and ability to accomplish their tasks. I think we should cover the other location."

Tavarius will prod the orcs "Answer his question."
Tavarius will then glare at them until they do.

Tavarious clears his throat "Perhaps you did not hear me the first time orcs, speak! We know there are forces of chaos at work in these mountains. Tell us all you know."

After their response...

"Good, now tell us about the Temple of the Sky. In case that is not the name you know it by, it has many inscribed pillars and is within marching distance of the gap."

Tavarius takes charge.

"Dispater will hear your pleas, speak clearly and present your information."

diplomacy take 10: 10 + 15 = 25
If any of them are secretly devils I get an extra +2

Tavarius, looks over his shoulder and sees little threat from the orc attacking his party instead focuses on aiding the Hellknights.

"You there hold the right flank, Manius and Budra push left, Stranglus is in trouble!"

Tavarius will use Inspiring Command on 3 of the Hellknights.

+2 insight bonus on attack rolls, AC, combat maneuver defense, and skill checks for 1 round.

Tavarius "May Dispater grant us all the strength and efficiency to put this battle to rest."

Tavarius casts Prayer, should get the hellknights and Alistina/Fatima, possibly some of the hellknight foes as well.

You bring special favor upon yourself and your allies while bringing disfavor to your enemies. You and each of your allies gain a +1 luck bonus on attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saves, and skill checks, while each of your foes takes a -1 penalty on such rolls.

Poke...

Tavarius shoots Fatima a quick disapproving glance regarding her footing and technique.

I'll be in Canada the 4th-9th. I should have internet and manage at least a post a day but will likely be a bit slower than normal.

Taking movement speed from BoF

Tavarius pounds his staff into the ground, channeling the might of Dispater.

channel negative: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 4, 3) = 10 always halved: 5 damage
Will DC 23 or be dazed for 1 round. Should be all remaining orcs in range, Will exclude Alistina and up to 6 total allies should Fatima move up before my turn.

Then Tavarius calls upon Dispater's grace, will then turn his backs on the orcs, trusting the PCs to mop up while he moves to help the hellknights.

If either of the orcs in melee with Tavarius make their save Tavarius will cast grace (swift) to prevent his movement from provoking, otherwise he will just walk away.

Tavarius will cast blessing of fervor on the party.

and then move up with great fervor "Enjoy the blessings of Dispater. Let our fight be speedy and efficient."

At the beginning if your turn, choose a benefit.

• Increase its speed by 30 feet.
  
• Stand up as a swift action without provoking an attack of opportunity.
  
• Make one extra attack as part of a full attack action, using its highest base attack bonus.
  
• Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves.
  
• Cast a single spell of 2nd level or lower as if it were an enlarged, extended, silent, or still spell.

init: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Tavarius already has a head slot item.

Tavarius nods "A Qlippoth's very presence is an affront to good order and a danger to all."

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Tavarius, having paid attention to his allies interests and expertise on their long journey quickly assigns people to the tasks he feels are best for them.

Tavarius is very bossy, and being a devout follower of Asmodeous's Scheneschal tends to be good at it. OOC: I'd much rather not tell your character what to do.

Tavarius will then flick his wrists and change his priestly robes into black rubber coveralls, an outfit much more suited to delving into the muck. activate sleeves of many garments.

He will then investigate the circle of runes to see what planar energies might be left behind or if something was summoned or called here.

know planes: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Because of keen 15+ is a crit, I imagine the crit confirm 1 is just a copy paste error for the 3 crit threats.

With things seemingly under control Tavarius continues to take a supervisory position as he steps away from the remaining beast.

"Lets clear this up!"

Fatima, Fenrick & Ruprecht +2 insight bonus on attack rolls, AC, combat maneuver defense, and skill checks for 1 round.

Tavarius has the leadership subdomain. Round 1 was channel, round 2 Inspiring Command, it sounds like neither of those were blocked by the mud.

My round 1 action was channeling negative to daze, which it looks like got resolved.

Being stuck in the Mud Tavarius will shout orders to his allies.

" Fatima! Take that one out quick, Fenrick hold the line and Ruprecht bombs away!"

Fatima, Fenrick & Ruprecht +2 insight bonus on attack rolls, AC, combat maneuver defense, and skill checks for 1 round.

Init 23 with a +7 bonus, not on your list.

initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

reflex vs Mud: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

breath weapon reflex: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Tavarius quickly finds himself stuck in the mud but dodges the brunt of the breath weapon.

Not wishing to be stuck Tavarius quickly casts freedom of movement on himseelf and slams his staff into the ground yelling "Dispater is displeased."

Tavarius will use quick channel, spending 2 channels to channel as a move action. 40ft from me, using selective channel to exclude my 5 PC allies, and the 1 hellknight in range.

negative energy: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 1) = 14 Always halved, so 7
Will DC 23 or be dazed for 1 round.

By the way...

Thanks for being a good sport about me throwing you under the bus RainyDayNinja <3

rat and. spaces are overated or something.

Tavarius will speak respectfully.
"While your knights can all handle the wind and rocks and climb at once. I have less assurance that the softer ones..."

Tavarius lowers his voice "and half breeds..." glancing at Fatima before continuing.

"can handle such an arduous journey. Please let the Pathfinders find a better way. If you had a catapult to destroy a fort you would no doubt launch it. You have Pathfinders to find a path. Let them do it."

diplomacy: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30

Tavarius has an imp companion that has thus far remained invisible. With the wind picking up it will transform into a ratand crawl into Tavarius's bag. My apologies for not getting more HellKnigh conversation, I'll be back up to full speed after the convention.

survival: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Tavarius seems comfortable with the strict timetable and general sense of order. He will make a mental note of which Hellknights are pious enough to read the Asmodean pamphlet during their break.

As they travel Tavarius gives brisk, yet helpful commands to any who struggle with small climbs or other terrain difficulties.

At-will I can give 3 allies +2 to skill checks (and ac/atk) for 1 round by spending my standard action.

Alfred has the Hellknight Prestige Class. My understanding of Hellknight hierarchy is that Hellknights and Signifiers are the same rank (Hellknights being martial and Signifiers being magical.) There could potentially be an issue of rank between between them, but I suspect the Signifier has been placed in charge here by somebody higher ranking. I suspect Alfred's player is quite surprised by her derision rather than respect. Alfred may also have access to boons or other material increasing his rank that I'm not familiar with.

Tavarius stands proudly, his holy symbol of Dispater proudly showing, waiting for a more through briefing.

Tavarius listens to the arguments aloofly for now.

Tavarius nods at the explination.

untrained local, max 10: 1d20 ⇒ 13

"Ahhh, it will be nice to return to Cheliax, perhaps this represents a thawing in relations between the Society and Cheliax."

Tavarious is a tall, gaunt, pale skinned Chelixian dressed in iron gray and red robes, with the latest and most fashionable trim. He enunciates exceptionally clearly although has upperclass snobbery in his voice.

"Yes Tancred Desimire is my cousin, but the things he has done to our house... The corruption of the great might of Cheliax and the betrayal of our house's glorious history in the Service of Dispater. His behavior disgusted me, and I ended his life. Let us speak no more of the traitor."

He carries a large and obvious holy symbol of Dispater, an iron spike driven into a goldn ring with a red and purple crown.

"There were always these nasty rumors about uncle Takarian being a vampire. I assure you they were just another attempt by a lesser house to insult ours."

Looking to play high-tier with Tavarius Desimire.

"Yes Tancred Desimire is my cousin, but the things he has done to our house... The corruption of the great might of Cheliax and the betrayal of our house's glorious history in the Service of Dispater. He has been dealt with and we will speak of him no more."

Tavarius is a dhampir cleric of Dispater.

As always, the Desimire family welcomes the assistance of others who strive to bring order to the inner sea. Dispater be praised.

(We could also still use some help hunting down that misbehaving cousin of ours)

Perhaps it is time to come into the light dear cousin. Meet me at Fangwood keep by the next full moon.

Our house has no room for tainted devil-dribble such as yourself. Gain what rest and solace you can at the Ruby Prince's teat, for we shall need all the strength we can muster to fight off the fiends of the worldwound, know that Dispater's will still runs strong in our family, and attempts to sulk your way back into Cheliax would be painful and short.

I love finding connections to other people and characters in PFS land. Just know that as a player I'm ecstatic, even if Tavarius feels otherwise.
