Re: Sphere's one shot
"Right", the heavily armored dwarf says. "The deal is done, the job is accepted and the terms are agreeable to all. Let's not waste any daylight, then".
That's rich coming from the guy who dragged the negotiations on and on and on....
"As you surmised, my name is Strosik Coinguard". Strosik puts on a pair of spectacles, and gives the party a once-over. "You lot look healthy enough. By the grace of Torag, I aim to keep it that way. Now let's go check out those ruins!".Semper ludens.

Re: Sphere's one shot
"The longer we wait, the worse for the prince and princess, so let us spent little time chatting now. Beorn Stahl. I know how to use this." The heavily armored human taps his bardiche on the ground. The raised faceplate on his helm shows a blond beard and blue eyes alongside a nose that has been broken more than once.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Darkan shift his focus from the scepter he is polishing to the dwarf.
"Torag? Isn't that the dwarven god of protection? Well, if he is offering one of his warriors as a bodyguard for free, I'll take it. As I am a fragile researcher, I'll be counting on you to protect me."
The robed man shrugs at the abrupt introduction of the armored human now known as Beorn Stahl and brushes his long teal hair that is obscuring his plain features. He then points at his club.
"Name's Darkan. I know how to use this as well but I rather not stray too far to the front. It is very bad for my health. I know some tricks to survive but I am not going to show them here. You will have to wait until we are fighting."Last edited by Yas392; 2018-05-18 at 06:53 AM.

Re: Sphere's one shot
"Free?". Strosik glares at Darkan, spits on the ground, and makes the Sign of the Hammer. "I know this is rough company, but still....no call to be using language like that".
Semper ludens.

Re: Sphere's one shot
From the three quivers of arrows she carries, it is not necessary to ask what this tall, pallid half-orc lady intends to use.
"I am Thirsha, and like our good dwarf, I intend to keep you alive past the plethora of traps and pits that some madman always manages to leave behind in those sorts of places."Last edited by Anachronity; 2018-05-17 at 08:30 AM.

Re: Sphere's one shot
"Pretty sure I can help you with that," says the elf, pulling some tools of his own from one of the many pouches strapped to his legs. "Not really my speciality, but there was that one time we wanted booze from the kitchens, and- Uh, anyway. Nah, I'm mostly here for this," he says, re-stowing the tools, and thumbing the mithral sigil woven into the overall threaded design on his left glove. A glowing gauntlet formed of pure light, an inch or so clear of the leather, and the mithral took on a definite glow. On the back of his arm, the light shaped itself into a crystalline prism, protruding just over the back of his hand.
He just about caught himself before he fired it. "Got a few other things here in my bag of tricks, but, well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it."

Re: Sphere's one shot
Darkan eyes gleam with amusement at Strosik's glare and unfazed by elf's light show as if he had seen it before.
"I don't see the need to be so uptight. I speak however I like. Aside from agreements and mutual interests, pretty much. We are heading the same way and each of us will eventually have do our share of work to ensure that we get to our payday. Now, don't we have something we need to do?"
The incanter closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, focusing inwards and swimming through his memory to recall any piece of information about the ruins.

"Ha! You've got some iron in you after all, scholar!" Strosik grins to Darkan.
With that, he sets off in the direction of the ruins.Semper ludens.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Beorn takes the lead on the march, resting his blade-ona-stick on his shoulder.SpoilerTimes I have ran games, I found it helpful to keep dice code for rolling common group checks, like perception. Saves time. I kept it in a spoiler in the OP and pasted it as needed. Editing in dice code to an existing post doesn't roll, so it works out.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Rex's has his visor active, the pane of light projected over his face covered with various glyphs which probably meant something to him at least.
He scanned the horizon, letting the visor pick out anything of interest.
Spoiler: ooc
Perception: (1d20+12)[20]
I have two perception spells up (they're measured in hours, so it's not much of an assumption). In short, I don't take any distance based penalties for perception until they're 150ft away (instead of 10ft like everyone else), and I only take a -1 for every 50ft beyond that. Use that information as you will.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Mai, who had kept quite so far, and simply planned to keep doing so, stroked Yuanjian's feathers as he rode on her shoulder. Once they got moving, she let him soar above her, his keen eyes far more likely to pick up enemies than her own.

Re: Sphere's one shot
You know that this is part of the Amlodd valley. This has been part of the of the kingdom for about 300 years. About 100 years ago there was a orc horde lead by the traitor king Zariasha. After a fierce battle for 3 years the horde was broken and Zariasha was slain. He was inured in a unmarked cairn. The orcs have been in the valley on an off .

Re: Sphere's one shot
You all see a immense bovine has horns reminiscent of a stag, with daggerlike points spreading more than fifteen feet across.
Mai Zhang and Thirsha Dehsson you have a standard action and everyone roll for inits.Last edited by catman04221985; 2018-05-18 at 09:37 PM.

Darkan is startled from his sightseeing when the Mai shot a green eagle shaped projectile forward. His eyes lands on a massive bull creature as he points a finger at it.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Thirsha releases a pair of arrows at the beast
Spoiler: ActionsStandard action fire 2 arrows at it with barrage sphere.
attack: (1d20+8)[9] ((1d6+1)[6] damage, and 2 ongoing bleed damage on each of its turns)
If hits, make a dc 14 fortitude save or be fatigued for 1 minute
attack: (1d20+8)[23] ((1d6+1)[7] damage, and 2 ongoing bleed damage; doesn't stack)
If hits, make a dc 14 fortitude save or be fatigued for 1 minute
If it's within 30' then I get a bunch of bonuses not included above that I'll roll OOC. If it's farther than 60' then I start taking range increment penalties of -1 per additional 60'.
Then 5' step back, preferably to somewhere it can't charge me since that's what I assume a hostile bison-thing will be going for.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Darkan takes out a grass from his pouch. Twirling his body and staff around, he taps it. The natural green strip glows and disappear. The scholar points his scepter at the area where the huge bull is standing and sheets of ice materialize beneath its hooves and in front of it. He then steps back.
Spoiler: OOC
Full-round action to reduce spell cost to 0 to create huge size ice terrain under bull's hoof and on four 5 ft squares in the direction it will move towards us. Darkan then 5 ft step back.
Bull must make Reflex DC 17 or take (3d6)[9] damage and fall prone. Success means the bull do not need to save on the squares that its hooves are in but can only move at half-speed on other squares with no penalty. If it moves greater than half-speed, it will to succeed acrobatic DC 15 check or fall prone. Success more than 5 means it is flat-footed but can move an additional 10 ft.

Re: Sphere's one shot
"Moooh! MOOOH!". Strosik swaggers towards the bull while drawing his axe. The axe seems to hum with echoes of his taunt.
Spoiler: ActionsMove action to Challenge the bull: +2 to hit Strosik, -2 to hit anyone else. That's an Opener, so my Sequence is at 1. Free action Imbue Sequence to cause my axe to do additional sonic damage. Move action to move 20' forwards and draw a weapon.

Same deal, Fort vs DC 18, however, the Fatigue doesnt stack
For the curious, i have Killing curse, so i need it to fail 2 more saves and than it makes a Fort save vs Death.

Re: Sphere's one shot
Thirsha continues to loose arrows against the dread beast...
Well, come to think of it, she's not so sure about the 'dread'. Or whether it was going to attack at all in the first place.
Spoiler: Attacks
Deadly Aim
(1d20+8)[14] ((1d6+5)[7] damage)
(1d20+8)[13] ((1d6+5)[6] damage)
It's already bleeding and fatigued, so no need to worry about those.
EDIT: oops, forgot to apply the -2 from deadly aim to attack. So those are 12 and 11; probably not hits.Last edited by Anachronity; 2018-05-20 at 09:44 PM.
