Sheridan, is the Spider Climb still active, and how much longer?

Infernal:
It'll last a little over an hour from when I cast it.

Sheridan's eyes glow softly for a moment as he joins his senses with Gannertung's.
I'm assuming that picture was meant to be the room we're in, and not what I see on the other side, but if I'm wrong about that then Sheridan's report is:
Spoiler:
"The river goes about 10 feet before making another sharp turn and going through another wall, and there are some guys standing there with flippers and polearms"

Unless there is cause for alarm, as mentioned, Kurgand will volunteer to take point in the first raft/boat (they look like kayaks in the pic to me). Since he's the smallest person (I assume), he'll volunteer to take Ghost along so it doesn't have to "dog-paddle" down the channel.


I'll need to know exactly who is entering first, how they're entering, raft, spider climb, etc,

I believe Sheridan is going to go first, the water is flowing rapidly enough you don't think you'll be able to paddle back through.

How long do you observe the water before you proceed?

Valanos will Spider Climb above the boat, so if it's dispelled he has a place to land and not be in the water.

Jequine very gingerly follows the others, hoping to take the 3rd or 4th raft. Before she gets in, as thoroughly as possible she inspects the raft, she has no love of water, other than to wash in, the last thing she needs is to get in a raft destined to sink.

She watches Valanos settle in his raft and the others before her, until its her turn, when she too settles quietly in the centre of the raft, her short bow to hand. She will lie down on her front in the raft, her head slightly raised to watch ahead, hoping to escape attention and blend into the shadows. Xaldinaar, please roll stealth for me, if there are shadows on the raft she can use.

She follows the others into the darkness....

Perception 1d20+11 +2 if its a trapped raft.

In original post dice rolled 22 for perception, 24 vs traps. on the boat. I will do as in the original post.

Before anybody enters anything, can we find out what I see when Gannertung sticks his head down the tunnel?

So you're going to attempt to spider climb, while the boat travels under you in the water, someone would have to release it for you, the water is traveling fairly swift.

Valanos mounts the raft with a little assistance, climbing into a boat in full plate on a raised river isn't exactly the easiest thing in the dungeon to do, luckily you figured out that by climbing the wall, you could step onto the raft easier. The raft glides down the river, you crouch as it passes through the opening

and...:
The stream emerges into a brightly lit room that shows signs of occupation. Scattered about the floor are five bedrolls, plus packs, clothing, bits of
food on tin plates, and various other items indicating very recent habitation. A pair of rafts leans against one wall. As the raft exits you have two nets thrown over you, however you're able to roll off the raft, and onto the floor of the room as the nets encompass the raft

1d20 - 4 ⇒ (2) - 4 = -2
1d20 - 4 ⇒ (13) - 4 = 9

Roll for Initiative.

You are currently the only one in the room, you were able to avoid the nets with your dex and dropped to the ground flail in hand ready for combat.

The raft for the second person through floats through the opening you see:

Valanos crouched on the ground, ready to attack.

Everyone left in the first room:

You see the second raft disappear into the hole.

I guess Sheridan would go 2nd, being of the chelxian faction as well, then probably Kurgand as he had no objection to going first (with Ghost). Then Geraint to follow Ghost and finally Jequine. So is Sheridan, Kurgand, Geraint and Jequine the order we can all agree on?

Sound alright by me.

Valanos & Sheridan:

it was in the spoiler that got screwed up, thought you had seen it since you knew there were nets. As you survey the room, you notice there are 4 humans in studded leather, two with spears, and two (net throwers) unarmed currently, though all 4 have rapiers on their hips. A Fifth figure stands back, in full plate, with long sword in hand and a shield on his arm. The room is 50'x70' one net thrower and another are on each side of the floating river. The figure in Full plate stands back from the others, watching the scene unfold.

Valanos Map rd1

Valanos:
I was looking at your character sheet again, your flail, it's not a +1? If magic weapons or armor are to have +1 enhancement bonus before they can have special qualities, a +1 vicious flail is equivalent to a +2 weapon thus 8300ish gp. I missed it during character creation, I think because I was focused on your armor, now I have the conundrum of what to do about my error...

Just drop the viciuos quality, give it the +1. It will drop my damage output, and thus my effectiveness, but it will be within the rules and fair.

Valanos will charge the enemy he is facing, per the map provided. It seems he will be flanked regardless of actions, as he is presently under the river, meaning the other enemy can flank him, but not much else to do; he stands there he's surrounded and he doesn't wish to show the Spider Climb yet, saving that for an escape or intercept of enemies.

Valanos actions:
charge, 19 to hit (2 points for power attack, +2 charge), 8 damage (adding +1, removing Vicious), DC 20 will save or demoralized

Since Kurgand's third down the rapids, just advise what I see and when I can act please. Been keeping quiet for now.


in the interest of speeding up game play, Kurgand, let's make you second one down, you enter as Valanos is attacking the rogue; the other one closest to Valanos draws his rapier and advances on him, attacking the heavily armored Chelaxian, while the one he faces draws his blade and attacks after the heavy blow, he looks a bit weary. this first attack is effective, skittering off of the the thick black plates. The second barely manages to find an opening drawing causing a trickle of blood to spill through the armor.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

Valanos will continue to injure the one previously damaged. Does he look demoralized?

2nd-1d10 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

If the enemy I'm facing falls after the first attack, I will use my second attack on the one behind me, and use Cleave (it still works that way?)for the immediate attack (2 attacks total, should be within the rules).

This is an occasion when power attack didn't help me

Valanos brings his flail across in a powerful arc, impacting the rogue in front of him, and slamming heavily into the second rogue moving to attack Valanos. Both of the rogues crumple to the ground, felled by the vicious attack.

Cleave is a standard action, thus it can't be used as part of a full-round action, but it uses the same bonuses (not iterative attack bonuses. So your Cleave also hits.) Again, let me know if I'm interpreting something incorrectly

Cleave:

Benefit: As a standard action, you can make a single attack at your full base attack bonus against a foe within reach. If you hit, you deal damage normally and can make an additional attack (using your full base attack bonus) against a foe that is adjacent to the first and also within reach. You can only make one additional attack per round with this feat. When you use this feat, you take a –2 penalty to your Armor Class until your next turn.

power attack:

Benefit: You can choose to take a –1 penalty on all melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +2 bonus on all melee damage rolls. This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a two-handed weapon, a one handed weapon using two hands, or a primary natural weapon that adds 1-1/2 times your Strength modifier on damage rolls. This bonus to damage is halved (–50%) if you are making an attack with an off-hand weapon or secondary natural weapon. When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every 4 points thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to damage increases by +2. You must choose to use this feat before making an attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage.

You don't select how much you want to adjust Power Attack any more It's a static modifier based upon your BAB. NOT on your STR. Your penalty is -2 your damage bonus is +4 Two handed weapon damage becomes +6. Therefore you should be at +11 for your MAB, which hits due to their being poorly armored. (studded leather)

Waraxe:1d20+13
Damage:1d10+7

Kurgand sees the rogues drop from Valanos' and quickly turns his attention to the rapscallions closing in on him, the heavy axe blow opening a gaping wound in his chest.

Suddenly the armored one is in the fray, and back out, a spectacular leap landing him just hear the water, he strides forward then back again, out of harms way. It looks as though he's going to strike high, but then he drops the blade low versus Kurgand. However, the blow is not accurate enough, nor powerful enough to pierce Kurgand's thick armor either.

"Fools! You'll never Take Bluto sans Pite ALIVE! I'll not go back to Taldor!" He shouts as he lauches his attacl

Kurgand has a flash of anger at Sir Bluto's attack, and prepares to do so in turn.

"Don't know who ye are or care, Bluto. If you want to go back to Taldor in a pine box, then I'll be glad to oblige you."

The Cleave and Power Attack feats are different in Pathfinder. My first attack would be 16, with 4 additional damage; second attack unaffected.
Cleave being a standard action is different than 3.5, I will note that.


Round 3,

Valanos checks to see if the two at his feet are done, while Kurgand drops the final rogue in studded with a mighty pair of swings, cleaving his skull in twain on the second strike, Sheridan comes in on his Eidolon.

"You took out the rabble, but you'll not take me so easy." He cries as he leaps forward, piercing the heavily armored Kurgand with his powerful strike before he retreats once more. (12 dmg to Kurgand)

Round 4: Sheridan and Gannertug come blasting out of the tunnel and straight into the fray, Gannertug bites at Bluto's arm, as he withdraws from the strike on Kurgand, and draws blood. Bluto ignores the injury and springs back at Gannertug (Sorry no AoO with him using Spring attack - you do get your readied action). His sword strikes the Eidolon but is unable to penetrate the thick hide. Sheridan swings at Bluto before he can withdraw, his weapon being deflected off Blutos Full Plate.
