(PF 2E) Crypt of Everflame IC

[zylodrizzt]

let's get going all ready. My legs ain't as long as some

[Dallion80]

Garnarf nods his agreement

[Starbuck_II]

How are you traveling? Full speed, 1/2 speed with weapons ready, scouting so not to be ambushed??

[Dallion80]

Garnarf moves slowly being alert for ambushes

[Starbuck_II]

After two hours traveling:
The narrow path winds through the raking claws of the trees, now bere! of their leaves, which crunch loudly underfoot. Up
ahead, a fallen tree trunk blocks the path. Suddenly a trio of snarling humanoids leaps up from behind the log, all greenish skin and fearsome tusks, bellowing vulgar challenges and waving their weapons. One points to coin pouch and imitates handing it over.


Garnarf and Greigh can act in surprise round same as orcs (I'll let you two act before orcs), but everyone else is flatfooted. Everyone roll Init (Perception) for next round.

"Yeah I don't think so. Greigh says nonchalantly as he draws and takes aim with his crossbow. He sizes up the orc on the left as he takes aim. Amateurs he thought to himself as let the bolt fly. without waiting to see if his bolt flies true, he moves behind his com panions to begin reloading.

Thomas

[Starbuck_II]

Greigh 's bolt flies true, for a split second it looks like the orc shrinks to halfing size but you are probably just tired, Garnarf's blade misses as the orc raises its greatclub blocking the blow laughing out a low growl.

The orcs start the counterattack, Orc 2 throws javelins at Goren, Orc 3/4 throws javelins at Jovar, Orc 5 moves at Thomas and swings his greatclub, while Orc 1 counterattacks Garnalf with his greatclub
Soon multiple javelins fly toward your team like a tiny volley. One comes charging at Thomas and swings like a he means business twice. Another returns the attack at Garnalf.

Everyone roll vs a will save DC 13
Everyone who didn't take a turn had Flatfooted Condition (-2 AC), Ganarlf missed by 2 (the orcs only had 14 AC so AC 12 while flatfoot)

And don't worry about dying, the creatures have an illusion that buffs them but can't kill you while up (you go down to 1 hp at lowest).
Was waiting till you all succeeded to let you know, but then I started rolling like fire. Don't want to get you to get a fear of TPK at 1st battle.

[Dallion80]

Garnarf gets hit by the club and mutters a prayer to Irori

Will save [roll]1d20+1[/roll]

Greigh frowns, he wasn't sure but he felt as if his shot had been a killing shot, upset with himself for not taking one out already, he reloaded and fired again.

Goren charges the orc in retaliation as he does spikes burst from his body and some blood seeps out. He rams the horns on his head straight into the gut of the offending orc

By the way just found a problem with those natural attacks. They dont scale up in damage like magic weapons do.

[Starbuck_II]

Goren viciously gores the orc, tearing him almost right in half. He flops dead

Jorvar immediately gets impaled by four javelins. Blood pours out and pools on the ground disturbingly quickly. ”Youch! That stings a lot!” Jorvar will rush off the road and hide.

Move left and up to protect himself from ranged attacks. Does everyone heal half the damage?

[Starbuck_II]

The last orc sees his fallen breathen and starts running like pants on fire yelling, "Ahhhh". Slowly all the bodies start reverting to goblins, you all feel like something messed with your minds. DC 12 Know Arcana

Battle over. So even those that didn't pass Will save and treated as passed.
So everyone wounded is moved to at last half life.

XP 20 XP for each, so 100XP. Not sure (can't find page that discusses that) if divided up so for now everyone gets 100.

Do you search the bodies?

Assuming you do each has: leather, greataxe, , 3 javelins, Pouch of 1d3 copper pieces, Pickle Jar with 1d3 pickles left

[thegoldenfedora]

Calmy, Greigh watches the retreating orc disguised goblin retreat as he reloads his crossbow.

"Yeah," He says before he spots on the ground, "I still don't think so." Calmly he takes up aim and squeezes the trigger watching the bolt fly away.

"Hell" he says as he sees the bolt fly past harmlessly.


"You can come out now Jorvar!" He says as he begins to methodically perise the corpses.

[zylodrizzt]

Goren roars as his spikes recede back into his body
Might bit oh pain for just a wee bit of fun. Goblins huh. Why though?

[warper]

Jorvar walks back out, poking the hole in his arm. "Well that was interesting. I wonder how many friends they have? After we deliver this lantern maybe we could go find them."

Jorvar continues inspecting and poking at his wounds as they mystically heal.

[Dallion80]

looks at the goblins and shakes his head
"Why must you all always resort to this life? We should be moving before others show up."

[Starbuck_II]

The party travels on. Following the road in the map makes for a peaceful jaunt. After a long while (hours) the sunlight begins to fade and a cold wind begins to rattle through the leafless forest. There is now no sign of civilization in sight.

While it is possible to travel in the dark, some of you are wounded and tired.
Do you rest?

[zylodrizzt]

Don't know what you roll do in your town but in any proper dwarf hold we always have a watch at night. I'll take one but only when it gets truly dark. You all can decide the order I don't mind much. Just wake me for my turn.

With that he begins setting up for bed and a meal

[Dallion80]

I will take the first watch.Garnarf sits a slight distant from the others felling as that they didn't trust him
