Test of Spite Exhibition : aethernox vs lvl 1 sharnian

[ex cathedra]

Map forthcoming. Either http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z123/TheChilliGod/Giantitp/Arena2i.gif
This is not my map. This is from the wonderful people over at the Arena, and in no way do I claim this as my own or mean offense by using this map.
or something Tide provides.

Buffs :
None
All-day
1d3 rounds of buffing
All-day + 1d3 round of buffing.
Which would you like?

[lvl 1 sharnian]

the third option for buff rounds [roll0]

Yep two rounds sounds good

[ex cathedra]

Do you mind if we stick with this map? The magma pillar is cool, but there's not enough space in that map for something this character would like to do.

Buffs:

No all-day buffs hurt. Grumble, Grumble, persist.
Round one : Move to draw Zoraster, free to place on the ground, standard to Giant Vermin. Activate Beads of Karma and Ankh of Ascension, saccing Death Ward. CL 13 + 4 + 4 = 21. Zoraster is now a Colossal Scorpion.
Round two: Persistent Divine Agility.

Initiative : [roll0]

[lvl 1 sharnian]

sure
Buffs:
All Day - potions of Magic Vestment+5, Magic Weapon +4
Round 1- Mirror Image [roll]1d4+5[roll]
Round 2- Displacement

Initiative [roll0]

Starting appearance if we can see each other:

A small crowd (7) of copper scaled kobolds wielding rapiers, each displacing in place can be seen across the water.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Kabol's Images [roll0]

And starting locations?

[ex cathedra]

You see a tall, thin man in fairly normal clothes. He has golden hair and eyes of the same color. He holds a shield in his left hand, and his right is now empty.

You likely don't pay him much attention, however, due to the colossal scorpion directly in front of him.

I'll start in A11. Zoraster takes up a 6x6 area in front of me. How do colossal creatures handle being partially in water?

[lvl 1 sharnian]

I'll be in Z10

"That's a scorpion!? NEUTRAL ****"

I would think it's too tall to care about the water. Although the water's 10ft deep. How tall of colossal creatures?

[ex cathedra]

Uh, very? It doesn't say in it's entry, and I don't recall where one finds the size rules.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Let's just rule it can step over the water by virtue of size

[Claudius Maximus]

lvl 1 sharnian: you chose the third option for buff rounds, which means that you can't have all day buffs active without spending your 2 buff rounds.

Sorry for butting in, but I think this would have been problematic, since aethernox has no all days up, but you do.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Actually he just might not have any alldays and if what you say is true, then the first option is redundant

[ex cathedra]

Sure. I could see it being difficult terrain if you'd like. Yeah, I don't know if you do or not, but there are no all day buffs, as per your choice.

I have several all-day buffs, and I spend one of my buff rounds on one of them.
The options were no buffs, 12-hour+ buffs, No all-days and 1d3 round, or all-days +1d3 rounds. Sorry for any confusion.


"Zoraster, attack."
Anyways, the aasimar begins casting a spell.
Spellcraft DC 11-or-so. You can see him well enough.

Swift Invisibility


You may not even need to make the check, because as soon as he finishes he becomes invisible.

The rest is invisible:

Standard : DC 14 spellcraft for Air Walk
Move to E14, 5 ft. above the ground.


I'll assume that the scorpion moves directly after me. Zoraster moves to G3-L8.

Your move.

[Claudius Maximus]

In retrospect, I shouldn't have mentioned that he had no all days up, and I probably should have pm'd you to remind you that you can't have all day buffs with your choice. Too late now, though. At any rate, the buff situation should be rectified one way or another.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

allright I'll remove my all days

I cast

Spellcraft DC 21
Prismatic Eye at T10

a Fine eye appears at T10

Kabol moves to Z13

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Eye makes Ranged Touch attack against scorpion

Attack [roll0]forgot add 6 to the roll = 14
Ray Type [roll1]

Fortitude Save DC 19 or be turned to stone

Your turn

[ex cathedra]

Save : [roll0]

Aerian
(Still invisible)

And outside of your line of sight

I cast Persistant True Seeing, and burn 7 more RUs. I'm now at 0.
I move to G13, 20ft. above the ground.



Zoraster
(significantly less invisible)
Double move to U18-P13.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Kabol casts

Wall of Dispel on row W-X
Eye makes ranged touch attack on scorpion

[roll0]
[roll1]
Poison; Fortitude save or scorpion dies. Success is 1d6 Con damage

If you walkthrough rows W and X. Targeted Dispel on you

End turn

[ex cathedra]

Aerian
(Invisible)

Out of LoS

Move to I13.
Cast Moonbolt at the Kobold.



You hear spellcasting from the other side of the area.
Spellcraft DC 14

Moonbolt


A shimmering bolt of light rapidly flies toward you, undeterred by your images.
[roll0] Strength damage, DC24 fortitude for half. Ignores displacement, images, and doesn't require an attack.

Zoraster
Fort save: [roll1]
(Assuming he doesn't roll a 1)
Move to V17-Q12.
The lumbering insect moves closer to the kobolds, and quickly snaps at them with his claw.
[roll2] 2-7 are images.
[roll3]
[roll4] 2 misses due to concealment.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Spellcraft [roll0]

Fort [roll1]
unless it can reduce strength below 1 im incapcitated

[ex cathedra]

It's damage, not a penalty. So, if you have less than 12 strength this might be problematic for you.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Now I'm helpless but hopefully I can still do something, mirror images are helpless also so pick carefully lol

Eye ranged touch attack on scorpion
[roll0]
Ray
[roll1]

EDIT:even the eye failed... on ray of insanity!

[ex cathedra]

Failed?
The scorpion has a touch AC of 1.
But it's immune to mind-affecting, which Ray of Insanity sounds like it might be.

Aerian

Move to O13.


Zoraster
The scorpion attacks the kobolds, striking twice with his claws and finally attempting to impale one of them on his stinger.
[roll0] 2-6 are images
[roll1]
[roll2] 2 misses due to concealment.
[roll3] 2-6 are images.
[roll4]
[roll5] 2 misses due to concealment.
[roll6] 2-6 are images
[roll7]
[roll8] 2 misses due to concealment.

[ex cathedra]

Stinger seems to have hit.
[roll0] + [roll1] Con poison.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

The eye rolled a natural 1 so auto miss and it is mindaffecting so he fails.

Doesn't Con damage cause 1 Hp of damage per hitdie / 2 points of Con damage?

If so, I'm dead

[ex cathedra]

Oh, that I did.

Confirmation [roll0]
Additional damage: [roll1]

Con damage causes you to lose HP equal to your level every time it lowers your modifier. 4 con damage, assuming you're level 13, is -26 hp.

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Now I'm dead

[ex cathedra]

Good game, then. :smallredface:

[Signmaker]

Now I'm dead

(Like a boss)

[lvl 1 sharnian]

Alright thanks
