Volsung Dreamborn's page

Also many thanks for running and I too have an interest in doing some more PF1 with Volsung. He's my main (only?) non-Seeker PF1 PC at the moment.

Volsung does a little "defeating evil" dance.

YAY! Though I think since I'm a psychic spell caster I wouldn't be affected by deafened

Volsung wishes the rune was a sentient being so he could use his evil eye on it.

DispelMagic: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

I've used my reroll too.

I'm assuming that Volsung knows a dispel magic will work on the rune at the bottom of this chamber because he was deafened after Ashwell learned about it, OK?

Since he can't hear his own voice, Volsung is very loud.

"I'LL TRY TO DISPEL THE RUNE."

DispelAttempt: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

I can do four 3rd level spells per day, so I've got two left after this dispel and the confusion at the start of this encounter.

"Oh my, I think Ashwell may require assistance if he does not want to spend the rest of his life whirling about in the winds of this place."

Bom is willing to chip in for any restorative/raise dead spells that need to be cast

Same.

Volsung will spend 1 PP to remove his deafness.

He composes some catchy tunes and goes out busking.

Perform(sing): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 15

Volsung adjusts the bubble level on his rapier as it had clearly been set too high.

Full round action attack on the boss

Attack1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22
PiercingDamage1: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
PrecisionDamage1: 3d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 4, 4) + 6 = 20

Attack2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
PiercingDamage2: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
PrecisionDamage2: 3d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 6, 1) + 6 = 17

Attack3: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
PiercingDamage3: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Attack2 is a potential critical
Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
PiercingDamage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

I’m currently at -34 HP after taking half damage from the lightning bolt that Circle fired at me. With a current speed of 90, I’m pretty sure Volsung can loop around to the south of the boss and get into flanking with Bom.

Like Mary Poppins, but with a bubbly rapier rather than an umbrella, Volsung zips around to get southwest of the boss and into flanking with Bom. Move action

If Volsung takes a AOO, he’ll use Mesmeric Mirror as a free action to get two mirror-image like duplicates.

Volsung gives the boss the evil eye. Swift action

And follows up with some rapier action. Standard action
ToHit: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (1) + 14 = 15
RapierDamage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
PrecisionDamage: 3d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1) + 6 = 13

Volsung flies down through the cloud and bubblestabs the druid still in control of its senses. Somewhere, Ollysta Zadrian makes a note in his personnel file.

I think Volsung is taller.

Volsung (-27 HP, fly, haste, deafened, Reflex save)

I made a reflex save in one of the posts above. Is this a second one?

Driven by a mix of courage and idiocy, Volsung rushes through the misty cloud toward the Circle creature. Move Action

Volsung will parry any AOOs he triggers

Parry: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

He stops slightly above his foe and focuses his stare on it. Swift Action

Then, bubbles streaming, he has at it. Standard Action

ToHit: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (15) + 15 = 30
RapierPiercingDamage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
PainfulStarePrecisionDamage: 3d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 3, 6) + 6 = 19

CrticalConfirmation: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29
CriticalRapierPiercingDamage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

ReflexSave: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21

Can I move towards and perhaps even get adjacent to Circle? I believe I have a movement of 90 with the potion of fly, my light armor, and the haste.

Peanut butter is an amazing tool for getting photos of dogs.

Pancake

I'm pretty sure I've shared this so anyone with the link can open it. Technically, she's not a greyhound greyhound. She's a Spanish greyhound, a galgo.

Thanks for the botting and very sorry for going missing,see my post in Discussion.

As Volsung moves invisibly toward the cloud concealing the enemy, he wonders if he is very brave or very stupid. Ah well, he will find out shortly.

I'm so very, very sorry. My wife and I got a greyhound this weekend, visited the shelter on Friday and picked her up yesterday, and I totally forgot about our game here until this morning.

The baddies are still totally concealed, correct?

Volsung comically tries to speak and can't hear himself, and then he casts Confusion centered on the spot where he had last seen the boss.

DC 21

Volsung will also be fatigued after using burst of adrenaline.

Can I target a confusion spell at the last known location of the boss where it will then affect everyone in a 15 ft radius?

Obviously speaking just for myself, I would not think so as deafened has neither an emotion or fear effect, nor does it appear to affect concentration.

However, there could be something else in those two blasts of winds which would affect concentration.

Yes, it was a potion of flying, sorry for not being clear.

Hearing a distinctly ugly and loud sound, Volsung casts burst of adrenalineas an immediate action.

FortSave: 1d20 + 8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 8 + 3 = 15

I’ve been waiting for us to get to this room.

Our well-prepared young aasimar pops a potion of flying out of one of his spring-loaded wrist sheaths, which he quickly gulps down. He then flits over to platform A where he hovers inches above it.

knowledge(arcana: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 To learn something about the wind here.

Fly: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

knowledge(arcana): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

knowledge(planes): 20 + 1 = 21

Volsung has the smarts! He is going on delay while trying to stay concealed.

The "sound of stone scraping against stone" is enough for Volsung to move away from the portcullis and seek concealment in the clouds from which the critter emerged.

Can we see into C4 from where the critter emerged or is the entrance sill covered by clouds?

Volsung is much amused as he watches various bombs and magic missiles impact on the critter.

Waiting to see if it's still alive, which I very much doubt.

I don't believe I'm still invisible as I cast deja vu upon the thing.

Thanks, sticking with my deja vu then.

I agree. I don't think we would have taken the body if we knew we had no means to raise dead. At the start of the scenario, we met a Venture Captain and a guy from the Concordance of Elements. It sounds like there would be someone to take the body for safekeeping.

A little confused here, is the mist-form of the critter visible?

Volsung casts deja vu, becomes visible, and beats feet to the side of the hall.

Deja Vu is a very weird spell that has not saving throw, whatever actions the target uses on the next round, they have to use on the round after that.

Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

Assuming I'm able to do so.

Volsung shrieks and defensively casts vanish.

DefSpellCast: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33

Once he is invisible, Volsung scampers out of the way.

If this thing has see invisible, I'll try to parry if it makes an aoo against me.

Clearly having left his ADHD meds back on the material plane, the ever-curious Volsun will take a look at this strange cold wall

I have no idea why my nice aasimar has become so snarky. It's probably something to do with the Plane of Air. He's not usually this annoying.

Volsung, who has the technological skills of a rock, looks for anything resembling a control for this "elevator" thing.

He also notes to his colleagues, "There was someone going on about a 'test' in my head. Anybody see anything that looks like it could be a test? I assume it's more complicated than 'don't end up as a sacrifice to Pazuzu.'"

Ever curious, Volsung looks down the shaft to the degree permitted by the iron portcullis.

Have dark vision

Volsung was still staring at the corpse, but he nodded in agreement with Bom's proposal

Sorry about that whole captain-demon mixup. I'm sure the captain has a loving family too.

Volsung's eyes seem a bit out of focus as he looks at the corpse of the sylyph, and he speaks quietly, almost to himself.

"Frustration? Perhaps he was stopped before he reached an important goal?"

From the description, it looks like that's all you get until you inspect it with occult skills.

Yep, that is exactly the case

Volsung begins to search for psychic impressions in that area.

Psychometry(Appraise): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24

This takes a minute so it may very well be interrupted.

Volsung can think of absolutely no reason to delay the return of the demon to her home and, no doubt, loving family.

Curious as to the source of the voice, he casts detect psychic significance to see what might be around.

"Detect the presence of psychically significant items" in a 40-foot radius. It's totally the GM's choice what, if anything, Volsung detects. It's really more for fun than any real intelligence gathering. It is a 0-level spell after all.

Volsung is amazed and relieved at the creature's gullibility.

"No, no, your evilness. Just point us in the direction of our employer. We are greatly looking forward to beginning our time in his service."

Recognizing that he does not possess any aerial spells which might impress the demon, Volsung instead plays the role of ringmaster, emphasizing the amazing skills and abilities of his comrades.

Will be using burst of insight again.

Bluff: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 15 + 2 = 19

I'm going to take my reroll on this. I'm a three star GM so that will add another 3 to the total.

BluffReroll: 1d20 + 15 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 15 + 2 + 3 = 26

So, he's initially buying that we are the new recruits and wants to see how good we are?

Since orc and goblin body parts are scarce, Volsung takes an infusion that will make him look like an ordinary human.

I'm assuming this is alter shape which will give me a +10 on my Disguise check, and I'll also use burst of insight.

Disguise: 1d20 + 7 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 10 + 2 = 25

I'm guessing I'll be lead on the party Bluff check with my +15, but I'd like to confirm that with the rest of the party and find out what they might be doing in terms of casting spells, etc. to aid the Bluff check.

Hearing Ghukar, Volsung smiles, "Orc? Or even better Goblin?"

Recognizing the danger that a mind-controlled Bom would present to the party, Volsung implants gift of will in his mind.

Had my bloodrager character dominated once. It was not pretty.

I'm assuming I am with +18 diplomacy and +15 bluff plus burst of insight and honeyed tongue

While he waits to find out what his colleagues think of his "deceive the demon" plan, Volsung will cast heightened awareness on himself. He implants mesmeric mirror in himself.

I can implant one more in someone else. Your options are mesmeric mirror, false flanker, compel alacrity, gift of will, or astounding avoidance.

Vulsung is up for a game of "deceive the demon." He will tell him that Gathering Storm has decided to fight fire with fire, and has thus hired us, a group of mercenaries from the material plane in order to better combat the threat he faces from there.

EDIT

He does acknowledge that the fact he is an aasimar could be a problem.

I just realized that Honey Tongued last 10 minutes per round, so I get a second Diplomacy roll.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (12) + 18 = 30
