Variel Arivae's page

Heccan I will say you have time to do 2 spells before they will hear you.

Can I do the same? In case yes:

Variel casts heroism in Aramil followed by a fortune hex than he blesses Rayne with a fortine hex also and cackles.

Hehehehehe...

K. Planes: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 19

I am unable to move myself on the map. Could someone move Variel to be beside Heccan and Aramil please.

Variel hides and gets ready for the ambush.
Stealth: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Variel searches for a good spot to rest until then while paying attention to the answer to Aramil's question.

Ignoring the mud Variel uses his arcane knowledge to check the new cradle.

Can we take 20 or 10 on this check? If not:

Spellcradt: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 = 17

Clealy dissappointed, Variel helps searching around.

Perc: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

If its knowledge arcane or the planes Variel can try.

K. Arcana: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
K. Planes: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25

Variel tries to help with the scroll as they move on.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Variel casts light on one of his rings. He searches for anything out of the ordinary as they advance into the crypt.

Perc: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13
Familiar's Perc: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

Sorry for the long absence guys. I injured my back a little while ago and have not been able to stop working to heal. By the end of the day I am getting home in too much pain to do anything but go to bed. I am trying to get back on the pbp horse but please don't let me stop the game, npc my character as needed.

And he will be dearly missed. The elf adds with a sad smile.
A.Another Diplom: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25

Variel performs an impecable formal bow as a show of respect.

A.A. Diplom: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21

What is our plan of action here? Any suggestions?

Variel tries to be as friendly as possible with the locals as he starts conversation.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 14 + 1 = 28

Relics?! Interesting... Help, yea, sure, sure... The elf mumbles eager to study the artifacts and not really paying much attention in the rest of the exchange while trying to remember a book he once read about easter magic rituals.

Variel dismiss his swarm and taps himself with one of his wands.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

The swarm can double move for 20ft, I think. And controlling it takes a standart action so Variel only have a move action, no?

Focusing his mind Variel moves the swarm to attack the ninja.

Dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 2
Fort save vs poison DC11 from last round's venon and again a new one. Distraction DC11.

Spider's swarm poison:
Poison (Ex)
Swarm—injury; save Fort DC 11; frequency 1/round for 2 rounds; effect 1d2 Str; cure 1 save. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Str dmg: 1d2 ⇒ 1

Variel moves the swarm again over the ninja (black)

Dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Fort save vs poison DC11 and distraction DC11.

Yea, that was what I was trying to do in my last post. Variel soend his standart action to command the swarm to follow the ninja.

Dmg+poison+distraction: 1d6 ⇒ 6

GM V I believe the black ninja takes damage from the swarm before he moves last round. Vomit swarm is just standart action to cast, I moved close to him when casted the spell and the spider swarm also moves 40ft. It does not have to roll attack, just end its movement by the enemy's square to do dmg, poison and distraction ability..

Variel concentrates to direct the swarm after the escaping ninja.

Variel commands the swarm to attack the ninja (black) and retreats.

Variel advances toward the northern attackers, his body convulsing violently until he finally starts to vomit live insects. The spiders pile into a black mass that quickly moves to the nearest enemy, eating everything in its path.

Casts vomit swarm. Swarm attacks red ninja.

Stepping forward Variel tries his hex again.

Target light green, will save DC18

Variel's eyes turn black as the elf focus his dark powers cursing one of the ninjas withthe slumber hex. Target Pink, will save DC18

A young and skinny elf wearing a green jacket listens to the rabbit's worlds with curiosity. The black bird perched at his shoulder looks inquisitively from one group member to the next bending its neck in a twisted and very bird-like way. He follows the others inside.
This should be interesting.

Blue dot

I vote the level 6 witch go with us.

Ok

Np, I will wait to see which one fits the party better.

Dotting. DM Kludde, currently all my +7lvl characters are locked in games. I have Variel here available but he is lvl 6. Or I could play a pregen.

:O If it had eaten a second cultist, this would have been a TPK

Very true. Bastard resisted all my better hexes, healing was the only thing left for me to do, spent everything but the 1st lvl spells. Very challenging, I had a lot of fun.

I am fine with calling it. But can go on if you guys wish it. Only have first lvl spells now but hexes are a self renewing resourse lol.

After the creature demise Variel quickly casts a cure at Elliot and helps the dwarf to move away from the goo. Taking a deep breath he finally stops laughting, his throat raw from the effort.

Spontaneus casts CMW in place of web.

CMW: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (1, 8) + 5 = 14

That was... close. Good job folks. He whispers with what is left of his voice.

Variel steps back and curses the abomination again.
He he he...
Step back 5ft, evil eye -2 on attack rolls, Will DC 16 to reduce duration and cackle.

#%$@&!!!!
Variel casts a cure spell at Ramsis and laughs histerically.
CMW: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 7) + 5 = 17

Hi hi hi hi hi hi...

Spontaneus casts CMW in place of detect thoughts and cackle

Elliot I think you also missed my enlarge person, at least you never answered my offering about it and now its too late to change it.

GM Tyranius you attacked Ramsis on the dice and your post description but put the damage on Variel on the sumary below. Which one of us got it in the end?

GM Tyranius I backtracked on the thread to check which spells Variel had cast and realised something. Ramsis casted protection from evil on Elliot in the prep time before this fight. Assuming the creature is evil, and since Elliot do not have other source of deflection bonus, his current AC against it is actually 24. Which would avoid tentacle 3's attack last round. I may change my action if that is the case. Hope this thing is evil.
/crossing fingers

Ive only got three bombs left. If we can't put him down quick, I smell a TPK coming! This thing is bad news...

Indeed. Cant help much with dmg, Variel is a support focused character :(

Watching Ramsis in action Variel also casts a cure at Elliot, and then laughs.
CMW: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (8, 4) + 5 = 17
Come on master dwarf! Keep fighting!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha...

Spontaneus casts CMW in place of invisibility , cackle and steps back 5ft.

Posting out of order to avoid delaying the game again.

Changing tatics Variel steps forward and casts cure serious wounds on Ramsis.
Spontaneus casts CSW in place of stinking cloud: 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (2, 7, 4) + 5 = 18

I hope this works...
Waiting to act after his companions, Variel cackles madly and tries the slumber hex at the creature.
He he he he
Slumber Hex, Will DC 17 negates.

I am sorry for my long absence guys. Had a death in the family this week, my grandmother passed away.

If he doesn't post in a day or so, maybe we could have him try to Misfortune hex critter. By my count, it'd be a DC 16 Will save.

+1

Variel cackles to prolongue his evil eye and curses the creature with a misfortune hex.

Misfortune hex. Will DC 16 negates.

Elliot, do you want an enlarge person?

Focusing the dark powers of old Variel curses the creature with the evil eye hex.
Evil eye -2 on saves, Will DC 16 to reduc duration.

Variel withdraws to the back of the room.
Withdraw action 20ft back.

Elliot, did you accepted the enlarge person I offered to cast during prep time?

Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Variel casts enlarge person if required.

Variel fires his crossbow at point blank range at the keeper's head and coup the grace him. Better safe than sorry.

I suppose Ramsis is right. We should at least try.The elf says with a sigh. Who knows maybe its very suscetible to charm effects.... Yea, riiiiight....

Does anybody wants an enlarge person spell?

It will be nice to have Variel available for gameday. Fingers crossed.

I will try but there are a couple of big fights still to go so it will probably be close to ended on Saturday but unlikely to be ready by Saturday unless everyone does multiple posts a day to push through the combats quickly.

Np, it was just wishful thinking on my part. I am having a lot of fun with this module anyway.

GM Tyranius the will save in the evil eye hex does not negate the hex's effect, it just reduces the duration. Normally it lasts for 3 + the witch’s intelligence modifier in rounds, a will save reduces this to just 1 round. But the cackle hex allows Variel to extend that one round as long as he spent his move action cackling.

Variel casts slumber hex at the man while cackling.
