Yao Tsun-On's page

Yao charges forward, his Nodachi at the ready. He unleashes a powerful attack from the sword, hoping to end the vile cultist in a single shot.

"The only one meeting death for your heathen god today is you, cultist."

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 5 + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 = 18

I will be at -2 to my AC for the next round because of the charge.

"Should be proceed up? That is where the dwarf said we could find the heart of this problem."

[b]"It sounds to me like it is time to head to the next floor. Will you come with us Master Dwarf?"[b]

Yao pushes open the door, hoping to surprise whatever lays beyond.

With the demon destroyed, Yao moves on to the next set of doors, attempting to listen for anything inside.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Whose turn is it? I am guessing with the failed will save that the demon is dazed.

Yao again smashes into the demon with his nodachi.

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

If Dulomak moves up and has a reach weapon, he should be able to reach the demon. The only thing he would have to deal with is the demon having cover. I will 5 foot step next turn, but being where I am wouldn't allow him to attack, as it is too close to use a ranged weapon.

Yao strikes at the devil, using his fury to power the attack.

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12

Acrobatics: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (15) - 2 = 13

Yao moves past the devil, using his acrobatic skills to avoid any attack of opportunity. His positioning brings him into flanking with the beast.

Yao sweeps at the devil's legs, attempting to trip it.

Trip: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 = 14

Yao pulls the door open, peering down the hallway for any signs of cultists or other enemies.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

"Time to move on. Ehm, can we take care of the lock on this door?"

Yao moves towards the secret door at the east of the room, preparing to lay waste to any enemy that he finds beyond.

"There appears to be items of use here. Can anyone determine the nature of their magic?"

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Yao looks around the room, trying to discern if there is anything of use to the party.

Time to open this thing up...

Yao moves to the newly revealed door, testing for whether it is locked.

If it is unlocked, I will open. If it is locked, I'll give way for Ehm to disable the lock.

"We still need to find a way into the hidden chamber. Anyone have any ideas? If not, we should probably proceed through the door that this fool came in through."

I am a one hit wonder!

Yao searches the man to see if he can learn anything about his origins and purpose here, or find any equipment that might aid his fellow Pathfinders.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

A Crit!

Yao's strike hits home with great effect!

Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Crit Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12

Yao strides toward the new adversary, drawing his Nodachi as he goes. He strikes out at the man with a powerful attack, hoping to end his life quickly...

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 2 = 17

Power attack, ignoring penalty on first attack because of Furious Focus

"I know nothing of religious iconography, unfortunately. I would assume from our briefing though that is the symbol of Moloch, the foul archdevil to which this temple is dedicated."

Yao searches the room, looking for a way into the hidden room.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

"Perhaps there is an easier way into this hidden room for the south. Shall we investigate the noise?"

Yao moves to the entrance to the southern room.

"What better way to find out what is here than to draw it out of its hiding place? We were charged with exploring and clearing this temple, and there is clearly a room here. We must find a way in."

Yao swings again, delivering another mighty blow.

The attack automatically hits
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 2 = 15

Let me know if I'm not going to be able to bust it down with any efficiency, and we can look for another way in.

"Ehm, I am guessing you could blow this thing down? Let me have a swing at it first though to see if I can save your ammo."

Yao pulls out his sansetsukon, and attempts to smash the wall with a powerful attack, taking his time to line up the shot.

The attack automatically hits
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 2 = 14

"Might as well try and open it up. We need to ensure that cultists aren't left with anywhere to hide."

"I think this may require your expertise Ehm"

Yao stands off to the side so that the Gnome can reach the door.

Yao eases into the room, cautious of possible enemies.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Yao prepares to open the next door...

He pauses, waiting for the group to come forward.

"Zalanda, would you mind terribly to check these weapons to see if any are magical?"

As Zalanda checks, Yao advances upon the next door, trying to determine if the source of the spell is on the other side.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

With allies now at his side, Yao throws open the door, hoping to surprise anyone inside.

"Let's keep moving. No need to stay in this gods forsaken place any longer than needed."

Yao moves forward to the left set of doors, keeping his senses alerts.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Yao steps into the room, looking for anything out of the ordinary.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

What a waste of a nat 20

As long as your back, its all good with me.

I would suggest that the GM bot Ehm for a couple of days to see if he shows back up. Once it hits a week with no posting, I would drop him. It might make the scenario a bit more difficult for the rest of us, but it isn't fair to the GM to have to bot someone through the whole scenario.

Just my opinion.

"Time to open it up! The Society won't wait forever for us to finish this mission."

Yao forces the door open.

Disable is a class skill for Alchemists, and it looks like he is at a +6 from his character sheet. Doesn't look like he has posted in a couple of days though.

Yao nudges Ehm, encouraging him to look for any traps on the doors before going in.

"Can anyone here determine whether this door might be trapped? I would like to know what we are walking into."

Yao leans up to the door, listening inside, but does not yet open it.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Do we have anyone with the ability to disable even if it is trapped?

"Fine work Suki. This oil will come in handy if we encounter any true evil in this place. I suggest that we move up and inspect the entrance to the citadel."

With that, Yao moves forward, keeping a watchful eye as he approaches the archway.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Yao advances on the remaining fire creature, striking it with his nodachi.

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

I believe the only enemies are the elementals at each end of the area. The other marks on the map are just rocks. You should be able to go after either enemies without provoking an AoO.

Yao swings at his target using his Nodachi.

To Hit: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

I am headed to Chicago tomorrow and will return on Thursday. I should still have access, so I will try to post daily. If you need to bot me to move the action along, feel free.

Fine by me

I am fine with you rolling init for everyone. It does speed things up considerably.

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Surprise round I am guessing. I will use my action to move up to one of the creatures.

Yao stalks forward towards the nearest fire-robed figure. His nodachi at the ready. It is always a pleasure having the element of surprise in a battle.

"Prepare to meet steel!"

I also took care of moving Ruki, although she may need to be adjusted. Added a link to the map into my header as well.

What is the initiative order for combat, or are we trying to get by without fighting?

The fighter takes his spot at the point of the party. Best to be aware of the surroundings to ensure none of the crazed cultists get the jump on them.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

I don't have a lot of cash, but I can pick up 2 flasks of Acid and a Holy Water. I'll also pick up a couple of extra waterskins. I think that comes out to 47 gold.

"Does the society to expect cultists to come back to the area?
What is the plan for removing the idol once we have recovered it?"

"I also need to make a short stop for supplies"

Occult classes should be fine... would be nice to have a little healing too if you can work that in. :)
