Welcome Rain's page

Because some times the VC being happy is not our chief priority :p

"Thank you all, good adventuring" Rain says her goodbyes.

"I shall catalogue what I can, and perhaps the Society can send wiser heads - Druids perhaps, to come and understand this further. This life creates a shield for the village, and the villagers seem happy and peaceful, who am I to take that from them?"

Rain - takes notes, not flowers.

Day job 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

"What happened to our friend Amenira? How long have you been here? What is happening to the town?"

Rain steps up "I will try the scroll"

Rain gives the scroll a read through, "Hello?" she addresses the plants.

Heal 1d20 ⇒ 14

Rain is out of answers, but gets that the body is enough information to tell her the worst.

Valenor eyes the doll suspiciously. "Nira...short for 'Amenira'?"

"Say it isn't so...!"

Rain casts at the creature...

Confusion
DC15 Will save.

Rain begins a pleasant chant to distract her allies...

Perform 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Countersong (Su): Counters magical effects that depend on sound within 30 ft.
Creatures use the bard's Perform check result in place of its saving throw each round
countersong is active. (PFCR 36).

Know: Dung 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Sounds like a good tale"

"Well this changes things..." I also agree, we will set out and help your town"[/b]

LOL I'll go after the bats, must have forgotten to add my details when I arrived late :p

"Well after hearing all that, I won't be playing their games any longer - time to go see what is going on here!"

Rain is set to leave... curfews be damned.

Yeah I thought that would happen, just waiting for the guys to get back so we can get all Scooby Doo

Rain was hanging at home in case the Sheriff came calling

"I can try mislead the Sheriff if he comes calling" Rain ventures, "We may need some fast talking"

Know (Eng) 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Perc 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

"An interesting spellbook, all early level magics"

"Twigs?"

Rain won't try any shady actions... she does go looking for a replacement weapon though (Sling and a shortsword?)

Rain tries to recall anything pertinent...

Know (Nat) 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
Know (Nat) 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
Know (His) 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17

"The roots of the ancient tree are afflicted by some kind of blight, though the branches and trunk are not. The tree will not survive another decade at this rate. Also, there is something very odd about the plants in town, not just here. Despite the harsh climate, they are exceptionally healthy. The townsfolk are growing garden crops that typically grow poorly together, as well as crops that are not in season. Crops that require enormous amounts of pollination flourish despite a marked lack of bees in the area."

Rain thinks there's more to it, but will play along for now...

He allows you to keep light weapons and quarterstaffs. You may attempt a sleight of hand if you wand to conceal a weapon.

Second scenario in a row? Getting old :p The writers are all on to a new 'challenge'

"What? Are you mad? You would leave me walking vulnerable and unprotected without my bow or rapier? Why these are dangerous times and this is a dangerous place! Just on the journey here we were viciously attacked by a gnoll and his war beast! An outrage that you would expect guests to wander in here completely without defences in such a time and place. My bow, certainly, I would be more than happy to see it securely kept in custody at the Inn or the like where I can readily retrieve it when leaving town, but you ask too much. I wish an audience with your mayor or headman."

Rain takes aim with her bow!

Attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

The Gnoll will leave to see another day...

Rain races behind the party, keen to catch up.

Too many performances to Desna over the recent holidays completely dominated her timetable and she missed the start...!

Rain makes sure she takes the potentially compromising note - the Sovereign Court may be interested in what could be 'questionable'.
Alternately, is Delroya an 'Artistocrat, noble, ambassador or similar figure'?

Rain maintains her song and takes aim at the Agent on the roof!
She releases an arrow, hoping it till find its mark...

IC
Attack 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 1 = 15
Damage 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Rain keeps inspiring her fellows, and takes aim with her bow again...

(vs Red)

Attack 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 = 25
Damage 1d6 ⇒ 4

Rain maintains her song!

She flicks off an arroe!
Attack the caster
Attack 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 9

The arrow goes nowhere useful.

Rain begins her tales of bluff and bravado to inspire her fellows!

- Inspire Courage (Su): +1 morale bonus on saves vs. charm and fear and +1
morale bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls to allies who can hear.

She then draws her bow and steps beside the crates

5' step

Can any enemies be seen yet?

"Hey don't listen to him, he's just in pain from an injury...I think he's really sick, he knocked over a pile of alchemicals in here and they mixed...I'm not sure if it is something contagious, it looks pretty..." she trails off "OH GODS! THAT LOOKS TERRIBLE! QUICK! QUICK! CUT IT OFF! CUT IT OFF!"

She calls back to the door "Come back tomorrow!"

Bluff 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Rain simply climbs carefully up on the crates to a good position... bow in hand.

"Charming"

Rain does what she can to stem the bleeding.

"He needs to be handed over to someone in authority"

Rain also casts her spell to Daze the chap.

DC15 Will save.

Fits steps in with his hand axe!

Attack 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Crit? 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Add Damage 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 2) + 4 = 7

In fainess we were hoping to daze and stun, but so far he has resisted our non-lethal overtures - so fauchard away! :)

If Shisen moved 10' the Colour Spray could be employed. I tke it that is what she does :P

"I'm afraid so"

Rain then casts a spell on the man.

Daze
DC15 Will or don't do a lot.

"Ruining your day"

"You'll have to come with us I'm afraid"

Rain points her sword in his direction to reinforce her point.

Lets get in the sewer, back to the area the addicts were in, and then nail him when he comes in

"We will head out around nightfall for the final rounding up of spectators and guests, we will see to out own dinner"

Rain sets to preparing the space for the nights performance, seeking to ensure the fellow is given a fair opportunity to make his profit.

Scarlet would have fleeced him and stolen the pearls on the way out - shes nowhere near as nice!

"This place is PERFECT!" Rain exclaims to Pal as she sweeps her arms around the room. "Pal, it seems Desna smiles today. I am Rain, also known as 'welcome' Rain because I can break the drought of your boredom with dashing tales of derring-do. I have a proposition for you, I travel with a troupe of performers and artists, and tonight I want to take your tavern on a journey to the far and exotic Tian nation... imagine your guests being treated to tales of the deadly Oni, the mysterious Tengu Ninja's, or even the tale of the tricky Monkey king? What about having your drinks shelf turned into amazing concoctions expertly mixed by our artisan of alcohol?" she points to Cyjke [/b]"Or even being able to pay a visit with the mystical and mysterious fortune teller to have their future divined? It is said she can predict your future, and bring luck by writing ones future on a pearl - the sacred symbol of the dragons of Tian Xia, and as long as you show no one else the pearl your actions will draw their blessing"[/b]

Rain looks about

"Of course we would be looking at a small profit share on the sale of any pearls, and we'd need to close the bar today whilst we set up and our criers went to the streets to drum up business, but looks quiet in here - you stand to make a good profit"

Three checks, not in order, but seem to be the most relevant
Bluff 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Diplomacy 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14+2 from the assist?
Perform 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Sense Motive 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

Is it one leads and the rest have to assist the main 'story', or we can each run our own attempt individually? I was thinking Rain would probably try a bit of a good guy path towards it, rather than mean an nasty :)

"No point waiting here all day, and it stinks. We can come back at sunset..."

"Maybe we should go down to the Oyster and disrupt a meeting?"

"So he comes here after dark, do we wait then?"

Rain starts searching the area too

Perception 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
+Detect Magic

Rain draws an arrow and casts Light on it...

She checks the nearest body.

Rain looks at Shisen knowingly.

Rain listens in...

The dark haired woman listens in, she is both elegant and stylish, wearing a nice mail and a rather fine looking bow and her fine and graceful features hint at some Tian ancestry

Know:Loc 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Rain tells the party what she knows...
Under spoilers above

"Why was she so upset about Diobel? Why was that town the straw that broke the camels back?"

Stats and profile updated, good to roll!
