Thallin Quin's page

..

Chronicle looks good for me also, and I would like to add my voice the the round of thanks for stepping in and finishing this for us.

Having moved to a more adequate distance, Thallin knocks another arrow and fires repeatedly at the remaining Ghoul.

Unable to see the map, I am assuming I was moved to a location where Thallin has a line of fire. Please add modifiers as needed for cover, if any.

(Full round action) Full attack with multi shot. (Attack includes +1 PBS, PS, +1 Arcane pool,+1 Study target, -2 sickened, -2 rapid-shot.

(Attack) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 25
(Attack) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 11

(Attack) Critical conformation: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 12

(Damage) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 14
(Damage) Critical: 2d8 + 6 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8, 1) + 6 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 19

Fort Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Fort Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Sickened by the stench of the creature, Thallin withdraws to a more desirable distance.

(Full move action) Withdraw. Note: I am unable to access the map until a little later tonight. If someone could move Thallin in a way not to provoke, I would appreciate it.

Thallin observes the movement of the black ghoul. After timing his shot, he fires at the abomination.

(Move action) Study target on the black ghoul, (Standard action) Attack the black ghoul.

(Attack) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 12 (Attack includes PBS, PS, Study target, Arcane pool enchantment, and a -2 for sickened)
(Damage) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 11

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Continuing to fire upon his original target, Thallin studies the movements of the red ghoul, knocks arrow, and then fires.

(Move action) Study target on red, (Standard action) Attack Red.

(Attack) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 15
(Damage) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 14

Additional Damage
(Damage) Sneak attack: 1d6 ⇒ 1 (If red is still flat footed.)

Realizing what the group is conversing with, Thallin decides to move off into the distance and invokes a protective spell on himself. Once the spell is complete, he makes his way back to the group.

As the discussion continues, the rogue infuses his bow with additional arcane energy and then fires a shot at the red ghoul.

Out of range of the ghouls to hear, Thallin casts shield spell on himself and then moves back to the encounter. Assuming the doorway is still clear, he steps into the door, enchants his bow as a swift action, and fires a shot at the red ghoul. Hopefully the ghoul is flatfooted.

(Attack) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 23
(Damage) +1 Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 9
(Damage) Sneak: 1d6 ⇒ 1 (If the ghoul is flatfooted.)

It looks like Bluedove's last post was around November 8th. I believe she is a good GM and I'm hoping she can return, safely. Normally, I would say to give her more time, but with the Game Day V time limit, it makes sense to keep things moving. If she returns, I am assuming it is ok for her to take the GM seat again. Right?

I'm ok with it as well. I know Bluedove has a character in one of my other games and is currently being botted, so I am assuming something came up.

My name is Tarondor. The character's name is Ezren.

I am aware that the pregen’s name is Ezen. I assumed that you wanted to be addressed by Tarondor seeing you inserted that name into the heading.

"This is a fool's errand," says Ezren. "We should just go through the door."

Maybe I misunderstood this. I thought you impatiently wanted to open the mundane door.

“Understandable Ezren. Herr Magt Jaeger, we have already inspected the mundane door for traps. From what I can see, it appears clean. I would recommend trying to open the door before kicking it in. If it opens easily, it might give us an element of surprise. If you would do use the honors, I will try and provide some ranged support, if there is anything aggressive behind the door. ” Thallin knocks an arrow and lines up with the door, in order to provide cover fire.

"You could, but it sounds like Tarondor has it covered."

Thallin moves back out of the passage and heads over to the mundane door. After arriving at the door, Thallin stands fare enough back to allow Tarondor access to the door.

While looking over at the wizard, Thallin nods in agreement. "Absolutely."

Thallin begins moving down the steps while searching for traps.

Perception (Taking 10): 10 + 7 = 17

Once safely down the steps, he begins searching the stone door with the face.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

If it looks like there will be enough ventilation to accomodate the fire, Thallin will move into the previous room and begin collecting burnable wood from the three that is growing in the entrance.

After collecting enough wood, he begins pilling the wood and the undead on (or next to) the pile of flesh. Once the pile is ready, he will light it on fire.

"If this works, it should destroy it."

"We could pile up the undead, close to the mound of flesh, and burn the entire lot. That would probably stop the mound of flesh from regenerating and eliminate the chance that the undead would be tampered with later."

Thallin glances around the room to confirm that there is enough ventilation for such a fire.

After making note of the room's ventilation the rogue begins searching the secret door for traps.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Once he finished with the secret door, be begins searching the regular door for traps.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Thallin begins aiding Dreggar with the search of the room.

Perception (AID): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Thallin knocks and fires a single arrow at the remaining undead.

(Move action) Study target on red, (Standard action) Attack red.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 10
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 9

Turning his attention towards the red ghoul, Thallin quickly knocks and fires two arrows at the abomination.

(Full round attack) Fire two shots at the red ghoul. If red drops before Thallin's attack, move the attack to purple.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 1 = 20
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 8

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 11

Everything is OK with me, just waiting for an update.

Why do my posts keep disappearing? I posted yesterday.

(Leave it to a wizard to ask why something is disappearing. Spell craft check.)

Curious, did someone move me into the room?

That was me! Your intended studied target was already down by your turn, and no other enemies were visible to you from the hall, so I exchange your move to study for a regular move. Tried to indicate that in the narration here:

Thallin finds his intended target is now gone and he can not see any others through the narrow vantage point of the doorway. He moves into the room to gain a wider perspective and notes the target Dreggar is focusing on. He fires an arrow to soften the creature up before it can act. Dreggar moves in and studies his opponent, readying to receive it's advance.

OH-OK, I see. It is not a problem, I couldn't remember if I moved into the room or not.

Curious, did someone move me into the room?

After moving slightly off to one side, Thallin quickly draws back his bow and unleashes a series of shots.

(Free action) 5' adjustment, (Full attack action) Attack red with first shot, if the first shot kills red move second shot to black.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 8
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 11

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 8
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 8

For some reason, I visualized the ink being smeared because they got eaten before they could finish...LoL.

I didn't roll the healing because it was a wand of infernal healing, which would have healed 10 HP. Let me know if there hasn't been enough time for the wand to have fully taken effect and I will apply the remaining damage.

Surprise Round

Thallin fires a shot through the door and then shifts back 5'.

(Standard action) Fire a shot at the closest target, (Free action) move back 5'.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

(Damage) Precision: 1d6 ⇒ 3 (If flat footed.)

Round 1

After finding his footing, the magus infuses his bow with magical energy and then observes the approaching undead for a more precise shot.

Assuming Thallin can see the undead, he will perform the following. (Free action) Use 1 point from his arcane pool to make his bow magical, (Move action) Study target on the undead that he shot previously, (Standard action) Ready to fire at the undead if it comes within 30' and can be targeted.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 24 (Attack includes study target, PBS, and PS)
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 14

Thallin continues to whisper. "Anyone have a strong area damage spell, or something that will hinder their movement? If not, we could use this entrance as a funnel and hack them down from the other side as they make their way mindlessly through it. We would want to hold them at the entrance so only one can exit at a time. Then there is the possibility that they may be distracted enough by the feeding frenzy to ignore ranged attacks."

One would wonder if they didn't have enough time to finish the scroll, who put the scroll back into the water tight tube. As fare as the amulet goes, any front-line strength based character should take it. Thallin will use a charge from his wand to heal the few damage he sustained from the splash damage.

Thallin leans forward to get a look into the room, and then whispers to the group. "That's a lot of undead! From here, I don't see any reason to take over this room. We could attack, but what in here are we after? Maybe we should back out and look for another rout. That being said, I hate the idea of leaving undead behind."

"AAAAGGGGAD, LEACHES! Blast them all to hell!" Thallin yells as he quickly moves to the other side of the room.

(Full round action) Move, Move. Thats assuming the water room isn't difficult terrain.

Seeing the corridor open up, Thallin moves into the room and draws his bow taunt. Once inside, the magus fires at the remaining leach.

(Move action) Move into the room, (Standard action) Fire at the remaining leach.

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 1 = 21
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 1 = 5

Unable to safely navigate into the room, Thallin keeps an arrow knocked and ready for any threat that should approach the back of the group.

(Standard action) Ready action: Fire at any threat that presents itself.

(If ready action is triggered.)

(Attack) MW Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
(Damage) MW Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

I am assuming the sleep effect eventually faded?

Now conscious and on his feet, Thallin knocks an arrow and prepares to react if anything sets upon Jaeger.

KOed by a magically propelled wizard's cane. That's epic.

Thallin lays motionless, dreaming of days long past, as a small amount of drool seeps from the corner of his mouth.

Thallin stirs slightly, mumbling something in his sleep.

Are the rest of us aware of the glare now coming from the statue?

Thallin moves up and attempts to assist Dreggar with the inspection of the door.

Perception (Aid): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

I don't think this was asked, so i'm going to ask it. How deep is the ravine. I apologize in advance if this has already been disclosed.

Thallin accepts Dregar's rope and begins placing knots into it, to provide an easier climb.

"This will help anyone who might find the climb challenging."

From what I can gather, that is the case. Once the rest have made the climb, Thallin will follow in suit.

(Did anyone claim the ring of protection +1? if no one is interested in it, Thallin will slide it on his finger.)

"I am concerned about these statues. I have heard of guardian statues being used to protect places and items. These could be something in line with that. Either a gargoyle type of creature or an animation. Either way, it would be hectic to have an encounter with something like that while climbing. If someone wants to attempt the climb, I can try and provide some cover fire with my bow." Thallin pulls out a blunt arrow and prepares to provided cover fire if one of those statues begins to move.

Do the idols have wings?

"You could be right Restful Spirit. It could be a sign indicating a safer path to travel. From what I have seen so fare, I venture to guess these guys aren't the sharpest weapons on the rack. That being said, i'm guessing the sign means the most simple translation possible. (Sign point that way, so you should go that way.)" Thallin shrugs after giving his best effort to translate what he believes the sign means.

"I vote we follow the direction the scarecrow is pointing."

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Thallin carefully observes the scarecrow. "It looks like we have a crossroad. Although I am curious about the scarecrow omen, I have to admit that I am a little concerned about moving the direction that the thing is indicating. Does anyone have any idea what this thing represents?"

As fare as Thallin is concerned, he would have left the survivor be unless it posed some sort of threat. As fare as the magical +1 ring and amulet goes, I am OK with that going to someone on the front line like Restful Spirit. Thallin will collect up the rest of the monetary items and place them into his pack, so the group can split it later.

As the beast is considering eating Ezren for lunch, Thallin draws his bow and fires.

(Move action) Move forward, (Standard action) Attack the remaining target.

(Attack) MW Composite longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 19 (Includes PBS and PS)
(Damage) MW Composite longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 12

Still unable to discern a suitable target, Thallin decides to move up to get a better view of the combat. After relocating to s spot where he can get a glimpse of the enemy, the Magus draws back his mighty bow while infusing its shaft with an arcane enchantment and then fires it into the fray.

(Move action) Move 20’ closer, (Swift action) Use arcane pool (1 point) to Infuse the bow with a +1 enchantment, (Standard action) Attack the black bordered target.

(Attack) +1 Mighty Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 + 1 = 11 (Attack includes precise shot, pointblank shot, Bless.)
(Damage) +1 Mighty Composite Longbow: 1d8 + 3 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 + 1 = 13

I'm not sure why, but for some reason Thallin's allocated 0 level spells have been omitted. I will refrain from using them this encounter but going forward he generally has Detect magic, Light, and Mage hand selected as his 0 level spells.

Thallin responds to the scream by knocking an arrow and preparing to fire at any viable threat that presents itself.

(Standard action) Ready to fire upon a viable threat.

"I am OK wherever the group feels is best. I am most proficient with the bow, if that helps any."

Thallin looks over to The Restful Spirit and nods. "Can anyone tell if that skull is it human?"

"Looks like there are tracks heading north."

After the seemingly never ending voyage, Thallin finds the extensive hike up the steps more than acceptable. While keeping to himself most the trip, Thallin keeps a sharp eye on the overgrowth and foliage of the surrounding area.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

About the time the captain mentions how the columns stop moving, Thallin excuses himself and heads topside. Shortly after his departure, the sounds of last night’s meal can be heard being quickly evacuated over the side of the ship. In the distance you hear Thallin mumble "I hate the sea" as he makes his way down the left side of the ship.
