Varvara Ulyanova Vladimirovna's page

I currently have too much of a writes block to contribute much, sorry!

Feel free to bot me along, I may come back in the future.

Running while blind requires some acrobatics checks, so I am assuming I am still within 60feetish range of it? I would use surprising charge if neccessary

Turn 6:

Vivi has no means of fixing being turned to gold, and instead tries to trip the creature by casting barbed chains.

barbed chain CMB vs blinded CMD: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 4 = 17

barbed chain CMB vs blinded CMD: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 4 = 27
knocking it prone!
That also inflicts shaken for duration: 1d4 ⇒ 1 rounds on it on a failed DC 15 willsave

Round 4

F!+@ F%$+ F&!@! Hej, if it cant see me it cant blind me?

Vivi starts blasting bursts of radiance, hopeing to mess with its gaze attacks by blining it!

damage if evil: 5d4 ⇒ (3, 1, 3, 2, 3) = 12
DC 16 reflex save or
blind or dazzle duration: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Round 5

Be f!#~ing blinded because we all get golded! She averts her eyes, burst of radiance is easy to aim after all!

damage if evil: 5d4 ⇒ (1, 2, 2, 1, 1) = 7
DC 16 reflex save or
blind or dazzle duration: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Hmmm, perhaps I can be a distraction or bait? Need to think on this!

Ouch, I didnt get any notification from this campaign again.

Show cunning? Hmm, I kind of went Gorrum rather then well, Shadow and Stealth recently but...

profession mercenary: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Seems it can teleport, and we dont got any dimensional anchoring ready? Meaning we need to stop it from using that. Somehow. Not much of a grapple specialist myself, but some cold iron or lead lined nets could perhaps be made.

Hi There Ram, why dont you... Approach?

DC 15 will save or the ram is forced to approach Vivi, triggering AoOs from Alexandra and others.

Move to get 20 feet closer, then cast command

Vivi is literally an oracle that went through different possessions, first a Succubus, later an Erinye and currently a Valkyrie. Her attachment to objective reality is... opportunistic.

She is not going to get close to the roper under any circumstances.

I mean, one thing all of my mental co hosts agreed on was death to tentacles, if rested, I can blast it at range too
She whispers to the group

Just to make a thing certain, you arent the artist known as "Ronda Rhopey", winner of ultimate tentaclebowl XXXIII and LIV in Alyushinyrra?

Alexandra looks at the roper from a distance

Dont think its her, she was missing some tentacles after the final match against the Gylou Devil.

She says.

Back from martial arts tournament, probably have concussion, front left leg that looks like Picasso painting and have acquired capabilitiy to sing one octave higher due to getting knee to family jewels.

Last part is a lie, I cannot sing at all.

A Hydra of some type and a sand alligator? I dont know if thats how they are actually called.

Vivi gives the blow by blow of the first fights.

Crud, I thought I posted but it seems it got eaten, or stuck in preview hell
Taken aback by the rapid developments in the swirling melee, Vivi divine favors herself in round 2
-----------Round 3

and then applies her greatsword to various target she sees and which are engaged with her allies

attack vs yellow: 1d20 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 3 + 1 + 3 - 1 = 17
damage: 2d6 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3) + 4 + 4 + 1 + 3 = 18
vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

-----------Round 4

attack vs yellow: 1d20 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 3 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 3 + 3 + 1 + 3 - 1 = 21
damage: 2d6 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (5, 4) + 4 + 4 + 1 + 3 = 21
vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Ugh, Crap-Crab combat, Behold by shining Abs!

Vivi 5 foot steps to the north, and seeks to blind the 3 crabs north east of davod (teal circle)

DC 16 reflex save or blinded for
duration: 1d4 ⇒ 2 turns and
damage only if evil: 5d4 ⇒ (2, 3, 1, 4, 3) = 13 if evil

Well, welcome! I am Varvara, Vivi being the shorter nickname. I heal, I blast enemies with my radiant abs and some morons think I can dance. I also have a big adamantine greatsword because reasons.

Oh, dont mind the Abyssal inscriptions on my armor and robe too much, I was young and needed the money She smiles

I hope its not the f#~#ing staggered for ever linnorm death curse... Please not that one I have seen that, yikes. Skalds with linnorm death curses are terrifying!

The Oracle mutters under his breath

Hello!

we go someone ranged now weeee!

Numbers are good yes

Vivi, being absolutely no stranger to innuendo smiles, looks and Davod and says

Oh my, with you this was perhaps bound to happen. Should have never let slip that I am on first name basis with a Succubus, such a blind fool I was but I am very much in the fold. And clearly nobody here would see matters of sensuality as a mere gag right?

With an oddly strong pronounciation on several words.

Not stopping a beat eh? Hope you dont get burned Vivi offers a smile.

Guarding Nima in case of magical items suddenly summoning things.

Vivi stands at attention guarding over Nima, greatsword drawn.

Once we are done with identifying, we may as well explore the interior, there may be edible things there. Or clues as to what is going on. It is good that we have flyers, but I dont think we can all fly yes? Hmmm, perhaps the items could give us clues on how to proceed?

we should, on any account, move. Lets see what that strange boat thing has on offer.

Tiesa was with us and then disappeared, in the same moment you reappeared. The rest, to my knowledge at least, have never been here.

The oracle answers.

Yes we are here, carefull, monsters. Also, does this plane operate on some kind of conversion of heroic characters rule? Vivi, who had a long day at this point, answers.

As long as the boat ride people arent thanaedaemons we are not in the midnight isles. Yay, knowledge planes and you! The Oracle says with a smile

Rest is a great idea, I just hope the bedrolls arent bed mimics! That was not an encounter I wish to repeat.

Not been to the Abyss or Elysium yet, certainly not to Dis either. Would be a bad idea, the average denizen of A-town can kill me or enslave me, and its not good to be in a place where your strength is below average. Gorrums halls are funnier for sure, I dont plan on ever visiting hell.
She chuckles

Hmm, A-town, City of Brass, Dis, Axis. Funny how none of the 4 big trade metropoli of the multiverse are run by do-gooders

wisdom roll to understand that trying to scam her former Succubus copilot with it is a bad idea: 1d20 ⇒ 8

Well, no way to contact her for now so the party is save for a bit :).

Sure will

Can I have a tally of who is missing how much hp?

Right lets move She says as uses her wand of cure lights

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

And then on herself

Clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Empty night is something wrong with my healing?

She repeats the process

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Healing Davud for 6, Vivi for 7, -4 charges

Welcome back! Ok, a bunch of us are hurt, lets review our options.

We are up in some weird ass plane, get attacked by monsters, have a conch as one possible hook and a weird talking dagger as another one?

First thing is proper shelter, second thing is figuring out what is going on, third thing is loot.

The Oracle offers.

Attempt 1
CMB: 1d20 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 = 12

Attempt 2
CMB: 1d20 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 = 22

By Gorrums massive brass balls, I still got it! Vivi exclaims as she seeks to get Davod out of croc.

Turn 6

F%## Vivi snarls as she sees Davods problem, and starts smacking, because that how she solves most of her problems.

divine favor fates favored enlarged person: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
damage: 3d6 + 3 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (5, 3, 4) + 3 + 6 + 1 = 22

She likely misses

Round 7

Need to go all out, GORRUMM GUIDE MY BLADE! She shouts as she has visions of the croc disappearing with her new found party member.

divine favor fates favored enlarged person: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
crit confirm: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 11 - 1 = 30
damage: 3d6 + 3 + 6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (5, 4, 1) + 3 + 6 + 3 + 1 = 23
damage: 3d6 + 3 + 6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2, 2, 1) + 3 + 6 + 3 + 1 = 18
vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Vivi unleashes a massive blow on the creature, and a surprisingly precise on as well, as Davoud likely appreciates.

Drunk bear with me

Vivi is hit by the second blow, (first misses) but narrowly not grabbed on account of her increased size, by the narrowest of margins.

AoO round 3 hydra: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 5) + 8 = 16
vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 3) = 8
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Likely 6 self damage

normal attack round 3 hydra: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (3, 2) + 8 = 13
vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 6) = 10
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Seeing that Grimoin eviscerated the Hydra, Vivi changes tack, enlarging herself and getting ready to lay down a smackdown on the croc.

Turn 4: Cast enlarge person on herself.

Turn 5: Move 20 feet towards croc, cast devine favor on self.

11 self damage total, no damage from hostiles yet

Didnt get zapped so dont bother smiting!
Vivi shouts as she charges in, probably provoking an attack of opportunity

power attack charge: 1d20 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 3 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 - 1 = 24
damage: 2d6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2, 5) + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 15
damage vicious: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 4) = 9
self damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Should have made myself big instead

35/40 hp if she hit, inflcing 24 damage on the hydra

Enjoy the beach!

Also, if it took damage or not from the burst is of some importance for Grimoins actions.

Did it save vs the burst of radiance?

I dont think I can trip that, but maybe I can blind it!

BEHOLD BY RADIANT ABS! CONVENIENT FOR ME THAT YOU HAVE THAT MANY EYES!

Vivi casts burst of radiance, seeking to blind and perhaps damage the hydra, and only the hydra.

damage only applies if evil: 5d4 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 4, 4) = 17
reflex save dc 16 or blinded for: 1d4 ⇒ 4 rounds

Information is ammunition, I am no longer as stealthy as I once was, but I doubt I give you away if I move 30 feet behind you.

I can create an obscuring mist, but it does not move with me, and a sudden mist cloud in a desert is likely the opposite of being inconspicious

The oracle offers.

I hope so too, we are far to green for even the nicest parts of it.

Desna has an interest in you? Cool, you are maybe worth flirting with.
The oracle smiles.

I would otherwise keep the connection a bit under wraps, you see, only idiots oppose Desna, but the Abyss in particular is full of them, and a sizeable subset of these idiots would see it as a proof of whatever they regard as courage to mess with Desnans.

She chuckles a bit as she says this.

Vivi hears Davud loudly proclaim his Desnan faith.

Desna is serious business, there are rumors that, when she doublekilled the demon lord Aolar for f+$&ing around, Lady Nocticula nearly became collateral damage because the Lady in Shadows was trying to kill Aolar at the same time as Desna was, and thus also got partly hit by whatever the star eyed Slayer unleashed on Aolar.
She pauses

I dont take contracts against Desnan interests, and anyone who does is dumber then me. She announces.

diplomacy assist: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

I am not sure if you want to encounter my leauge of evil unpleseant exes. I mean, Ragnar is dedded now, so there is an Erinye, a Succubus, although both of these were in my brain not in my bed, currently I have a Valkyrie riding around, I dont actually know what she thinks of

The oracle stops as her eyes suddenly glow with a golden light

PROVE YOUR METTLE IF YOU WISH TO DATE MY CHARGE! ALTHOUGH I APPROVE OF YOUR QUITE NON NOODLY ARMS FOR A ROUGE! WHAT IS YOUR MOST IMPRESSIVE KILL OR BATTLE VICTORY?

She says, almost shouts with a quite different voice.

Vivis eyes stop glowing.

Ok, could have been worse. Seriously, the Succubus was trying to get me laid with literally everything and the Erinye was the total opposite. There is a creepy f#%% who was turned on by the Erinye detailing what she would do to him if he didnt bugger off, an elfen "totally not red mantis assassin" and the obligatory Paladin who tried to redeem me. He is from one of the virginity orders, so I dont actually know if he technically counts as an Ex.

She continues in her normal voice as if nothing happened.

I spy with my little eye
a shot black sword quite spry
in this place rather dry
it will hopefully make the bad guys cry

In this very strange wild land
it is in our pallys hand
hopefully there wont bee needs
for some party splitting deeds

She chuckles

And now I shall stop my poetry before you all get feebleminded from how bad it is. It is best if I save my poetic energy to crush the will to live of some enemy bard or something.

I have heard of things called black blades, mysterious stuff for Magus like spell swords. Could it be one of those? She pauses

Thing is, the one Black Blade magus I know, definitly Pharasmin influenced. Doubt his blade would have pinged as evil.

I am personally using a 2 handed weapons, but it could be good on our sneaky types?

Vivi escorts Tiesa being within 5 feet of her as she goes around investigating.

Vivi brought nothing but her complete gear, as well as the tome she was studying.

Plane shift? probably? Maybe? I have actually been off plane yet.

Also, our big boys and girls are gone she says as she notices Aukans and Alexandrias

She draws her blade. And casts an incantantation.

Thanks Tiesa
Casting detect magic

I am picking up 4 magic auras, be on your guard, where there is loot there are threats!

Vivi does not know about any cunning shenanigians, but can be seen doing handstand pushups with one of Aukans spare armors as extra weight.

CUKA BLYAD, whats next on this regimen, piledriver a Vavakia into an active volcano? Yikes. She swears as she takes a break.

Oi, Grimoin, you feel like sparring a bit?

Vivi is engaging in a massive workout regimen, as spoken to in the manual of strength.
