Tenibri's page

Tenibri points at Ejtehah. "That's the Mother's chosen," he adds.

Intimidate (aid another) DC 10: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13

I'm heading out today for a weekend trip; I likely won't post again until Monday. Feel free to bot me as you need!

Tenibri can't see anything from the hallway; he dashes into the room quickly, looking for a better vantage point from which to join the battle.

Double move: 40'
Movement assumes the double-doors behind Cat are open into the hallway beyond; if not, use the translucent token position instead.

Edit: I'm (newly) wearing a wrist brace for carpal tunnel, and mousing is awkward with it. I think I just accidentally deleted the map and closed the browser in a burst of errant clicks. Unfortunately, "Undo" isn't recovering it for me.... Sorry!

Edit 2: I see that Google keeps a "Version History" so was able to restore the map from earlier today. I think we're good, but people should check their token positions to make sure I didn't restore it to before they acted!

Tenibri positions himself near the door, internally running over his spell options so that he's ready to react to any eventuality.

Was going to position my token on the map near Ejtehah, but almost all of the tokens are gone! I'd add Tenibri back, but I'm not entirely sure which door we're talking about right now.

Tenibri can't pass up the opportunity presented with the hyenas clustered the way they are. He moves a little closer and drops another pit underneath the tightly-packed cluster. But he calls out a warning to his friends: "These pits don't last forever! Someone with the means should finish that guy in that one before it disappears!" He's clearly pointing to the first pit he conjured. 8 rounds duration each!

Awkin and Cat are on delay until there is something to pounce.

Awkin's on delay; they shouldn't be holding up initiative at this point.

What happened to the red one?

Tenibri bursts into action, conjuring an interdimensional pit beneath the schir standing alone.

He then moves off to the side, creating separation from his allies, just in case.

Tenibri looks at the others as he makes to follow the schirs. Just as he begins following, his eye lifts in question. His eyes seem to ask "now?"

Not pushing the ambush, just wondering how long we're planning to keep up the facade. Are we keeping it going until we have no other choice (i.e. we're discovered or about to be sacrificed), or are we going to try to spring something on these three right away?

Tenibri is edging low on resources. He has two spells left at every level, 1-3. He also has enough arcane reservoir for 5 levels of summon monster spells (up to III). He has a variety of wands to fall back on, but only one is offensive: two more castings of that burning hands from before.

Nothing to worry about, but since we are approaching the endgame here, I figure it would be good to point out.

If anyone has any particular requests (now or later, as things develop) with regards to those summons, please let me know!

(IIRC, the smite evil from the celestial template for summons does not push things through DR, correct?)

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 looks like we have defenses covered; can Tenibri please learn about special attacks and/or abilities?

Tenibri tries his best to look nervous, with dual senses of both worry and anticipation.

Bluff (aid another) DC 10: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

"I can see how it would still be useful. I myself am running down on spells, or I might join 'Gnarlpaw' that way. But do be careful, and don't be afraid to abandon the form if it becomes dangerous to wear it!"

"Calm down; calm down!" Tenibri puts his hands up in the universal symbol of meaning no harm, and hopes she at least understands the common tongue, as the language she speaks is beyond him.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25

"Othine, do you know where the temple is? If you want to lead the way, we can clean up on our way out, too."

"Well, I think there are a few places down here that we haven't yet explored. It seems like we've got control of the place now; shall we see what's behind some of these doors? And there's a lot of places we moved through quickly because we were fighting; let's see what we missed." Blue stars on the map by everything I'm talking about.

Tenibri moves forward--retrieving a wand as he goes--and stops just a few feet away from their foes. He unleashes a fan of flames from the wand, carefully planned to stop just before any fire hits Othine or Ejtehah.

Did I misread the scene? Blargh I'm too trusting, aren't I?

Tenibri bursts into the air, his shadowy form taking on an almost feathery fringe as he darts through the passage over everyone's head, coming to a landing on the other side to trap the three gnolls.

"That wasn't Gnarlpaw!" Tenibri shouts. "Gnarlpaw's dead; that's one of ours, leading the slaves to freedom!"

Tenibri remains out of sight, listening intently to the conversation to see if he needs to jump into action yet or not.

Knowledge (arcana) DC 20: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16 +4 if related to duergar (not likely, haha, but it is a bonus I have!)

Tenibri looks at the scene a little bit befuddled. He knew he was missing something, but that's the problem with the things you miss; you don't know what they are!

In preparation for moving deeper into the complex, Tenibri casts see invisibility on himself, then spends a minute (technically, a full round action) poring over his spellbook, swapping the spell for something else.

Spending one point from his Arcane Reservoir to swap see invisibility for glitterdust.

Do we want to kill or capture Gnarlpaw? I can finally drop a pit underneath him if we want to go the capture route, but he's such a zealot that it may not be worthwhile?

Tenibri grabs a flask of acid from his pouch, and fires off a simple cantrip, conjuring a small glob of acid that flies through the air, enhanced by the flask he grips tightly in his fist.

Simple solutions are best. Tenibri thinks, listening to the gnoll blabber. He whispers the words that call into being magic missiles, and flings his hand forward, sending four of them flying unerringly at the gnoll, slamming into its frame consecutively, each in perfect beats with the others.

Will, timelost chronicler: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 = 18

That's too close to call; I'll wait before posting. Note: if Tenibri fails, I have a solution in mind.

Timelost Chronicler: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.

Tenibri gets the ant's attention with tap on its carapace, and motions it to follow him out. He ventures around the corner, looking for more action.

Tenibri shakes his head a few times to clear the magical fog that was wrapped around his mind, and rushes to the door so that he can check on the ant's progress, and possibly redirect it if needed.

This is early notice that I will be on vacation from Wed 22 Jun through Mon 27 Jun. I will be camping at a music festival, and internet has historically been inaccessible via phones most of the time during the festival due to the amount of traffic. I don't expect that I will be able to post at all.

I will try to get a reminder post in right before I leave, but I might miss that in the rush to get going. Please feel free to bot Tenibri as needed starting Tuesday PM.

The insect is probably immune to the sleep spell, as it has no brain.

Indeed, ants are immune to mind-affecting effects, which includes both sleep and deep slumber (which is my guess as to what was cast, since it's affecting Tenibri).

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26 let's go ahead and confirm that guess, shall we?
Will: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Note: if it is deep slumber, it affects the lowest HD creatures within the 10' burst first. I'm not sure where Tinderwick placed the burst, but is there a chance any gnolls have to make the same save?

Tenibri recognizes the spell as it's being cast, and marvels to himself Good idea! That was smart! as he drifts off to a peaceful sleep.

Tenibri wheels when he gets just inside the gate and past the gnoll forces. His hands begin motions that Yaqib certainly never knew, and a shimmering portal opens up right between him and the real gnolls near the gate.

Tenibri rushes into the compound, past the willing guards, grateful that his disguise was working so well.

Am I understanding the map correctly; the token to the south of Tenibri is Lotus? Standard action will follow....

Hi! I had a long weekend vacation, and just started a new job today--all while recovering froma broken leg--so still figuring out my posting rhythm. I forgot to post an announcement, sorry! I think it's likely I don't get a meaningful post in until tomorrow--Wed--so please bot anything you need from me in the meantime.

Thanks!

"Yeah," Tenibri adds. "That was crazy! Let us in!"

Disguise, disguise self: 1d20 + 2 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 10 = 22
Bluff, aid another DC 10: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

"Very well; good points all." Tenibri motions his hand with a soft, arcane word, and his visible form begins taking on the appearance of one of their new friends. (70 min duration)

I'm going with disguise self as gnolls don't have any special abilities that Tenibri doesn't already have (darkvision), and the +2 bonus to Str doesn't really do much for him. No arcane reservoir needs to be spent either.

"Just so we have all of our options on the table, if we decide to go a stealthy route, I can become like a shadow. It's super-brief, like not even a minute, but it might as well be an invisibility spell." He pauses, and shrugs his shoulders. "The disguise spells--and this shadow effect--they only work on me, so it's one or the other, unfortunately."

Tenibri grins at Lotus' suggestion, then he leans in towards the gnolls for a closer look. He begins studying the gnoll in detail, walking around 360 degrees to get a complete look.

He's got disguise self memorized, and alter self a Quick Study away.

Follow up question: would the water fill up a create pit if the pit crossed over that water, or would the multi-dimensional nature of the pit prevent that? (I'll go ahead and take a different action this round; no need to delay while I piggy-back questions, haha)

Tenibri continues flying until he can see their foe deep at the end of another tunnel. He sends forth a burst of arcane energy with the intent to cancel out whatever magic protects or enhances her in this combat.

Is there water in the channel beside Zahrah?

So sorry everyone! I missed that I was up; feel free to nudge me if I ever take this long again....

Looking down the long tunnel--into reaches that even his own darkvision can't see to--Tenibri decides that he needs to abandon his short little legs if he's going to participate in the action. He activates the magic of flight with a few simple motions and arcane syllables. His feet lift off the ground, and he darts forward and up.

Because it might become relevant, how high are the tunnel ceilings in here?

Tenibri quietly slips out his own wand, activating mage armor on himself as Betty does the same.

He also had a 70 minute see invisibility up; has that expired? I'm not sure how much time has passed since I last drove Tenibri. I wasn't monitoring the action while I was away, so a brief summary of what happened since Tenibri charmed the 2nd guard would also be helpful. Thanks!

Okay, I'm in a position where I can probably start driving my PC again. It was nice of you all to wait for me to get healed up properly. Are we ready to bring this one to a finish?

The Brennevin told me to.

This is my early warning that I'll be leaving on Wed 16 March for a long, international vacation that will have me completely disconnected until 28 March. Most likely, I won't be able to post at all. If I do find myself in a position to post, it will be without a keyboard; the best I'd be able to offer is to guide the botting of Tenibri from the discussion thread; I don't do well with the forum formatting tags from my phone.

I'll post another reminder on 16 March when I leave.

Hi all; I suffered a sever broken leg while on vacation. I'm not going to be able to sit at a computer for any extended period of time for the foreseeable future, and I'm just not good at posting from mobile devices. I'm afraid that as of now I'm going to have to take an indefinite hiatus. Please feel free to bot my PC as needed to complete the current game, and issue me the appropriate credit on my chronicle.

"I think you lost yours...."

Once the group is out of sight--and before anybody starts to converse with the slaves--Tenibri casts charm person on their new escort. Expending one Arcane Reservoir point to increase the Will save to DC 18

Tenibri looks at Tinderwick with a disapproving glare--hoping the slaver will assume the glare is about the secrecy, not the slavery--and prepares to follow Lotus with their liberated slaves.

How are we doing here, everyone? The last time anybody other than Lotus has posted in Gameplay was 2 March--over a week ago.

Tenibri steps forward and casts detect magic; he starts inspecting both slaves they're currently working on liberating.

Knowledge (arcana): 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (9) + 16 = 25

Sense Motive DC 15: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (15) + 0 = 15

Tenibri allows disappointment to cross his face, but remains silent as he has up until now, still deferring to Lotus to take the lead.
