Drufle (GM)
Well, once we get this going, this will be session 20.
The big 2-0.
Still not the longest campaign we've ever had, and I'm not entirely sure we'll even break that number.

Samantha Rose H.
ive had a look at the element script and it seems like a weird html code, but I cannot see the part where I can remove the extra + in the script

Moppy
and you still didn't finish it

Horanoven A.
we are cursed, it seems
its only a matter of time before the gods intervene to stop us

Drufle (GM)
Oh wait, I'm wrong, the last PF2 session was actually session 20.
I thought it was 22.
So we will outlive PF2 by a small amount.

Moppy
hooray

Samantha Rose H.
brilliant

Drufle (GM)
So last time we did a truly incessant amount of reading, and discovered the adventures of one Yew Fletcher.

Samantha Rose H.
and dragon fighting

Drufle (GM)
We also punched some dragonlets or something.

Horanoven A.
we wrestled with dragons
and a manticore

Drufle (GM)
Yvonne helped a bit.

Moppy
you divekicked it to death like a goddamn scrub

Horanoven A.
the repeated divekicks
a shame druf won't let me get away with that anymore

Moppy
I bet you pick Ken only

Drufle (GM)
Also we've decided since then that despite what the book may say, you do have to move when you drop kick.

Horanoven A.
you got me mopp
divekicks for days

Drufle (GM)
It's a bit ridiculous otherwise.

Samantha Rose H.
and rose got her sword out for the second time

Horanoven A.
its only 1d6 more so its fiiiine

Drufle (GM)
Man, I forgot that part.
She did actually use a melee weapon.

Moppy
new achievement idea: ranged fighter gets melee kill

Horanoven A.
don't tempt fate
or sam

Samantha Rose H.
lol

Drufle (GM)
One of these days I might go back through logs and give people achievements.

Moppy
like hell you'll load this up

Sol grooves

Drufle (GM)
Definitely going to give Noven one called Wrong Number.

Samantha Rose H.
I believe I single handedly shot down a few creatures

Drufle (GM)
I'm pretty sure she did, yeah.

Moppy
you mean Face Planter

Drufle (GM)
That too.

Moppy
and howdy sol

Horanoven A.
if you want to go ahead
hey sol

Drufle (GM)
So, uh, this is session 20, and we have at most two sessions after this.

Samantha Rose H.
HK defo needs a super tank, hes untouchable

Horanoven A.
we're approaching the end
HK is Armor Tank, Drumun is Dodge Tank

Moppy
SO CLOSE

Samantha Rose H.
what next?

Drufle (GM)
I find it highly unlikely that we'll end next time but if luck is highly unbalanced next session could conceivably be the last one.

Horanoven A.
we just need an HP Tank and we'll have the Holy Trinity of Tanks

Sol
rusenfeld is kind of a glass cannon isn't he

Drufle (GM)
Oh yeah.

Moppy
yah

Drufle (GM)
And up next in this slot is the BW game, I believe.

Horanoven A.
oh yeahhhh

Samantha Rose H.
BW?

Drufle (GM)
I'd love to put starfinder in this slot instead but they have all of one book out for that so far.

Moppy
Burning Wheel

Horanoven A.
Burning Wheel
the Wheel that Burns

Samantha Rose H.
any good?

Sol
it sounds extremely interesting

Horanoven A.
Druf likes it

Sol
i'm looking forward to tryign it

Horanoven A.
its very Player driven

Moppy
we really dont know, we've never played it before
I am not ready for it at all

Samantha Rose H.
oh lol

Sol
pshaw

Drufle (GM)
I've watched it played multiple times, so I'm pretty prepared.

Horanoven A.
Druf literally cannot write a story until we make our characters

Sol
you don't need to be ready for something like that
we just hop in
and play
so, guys, i'm a little limited on time today

Drufle (GM)
Also that game will 100% have to be voiced, not text-driven.

Moppy
ooof

Sol
hopefuly not enough to matter, but i should let you know regardless

Samantha Rose H.
what type of mad character should I do next?

Drufle (GM)
Well, let's figure out that game after we finish this one.

Horanoven A.
well the BW game will be taking place during a coup in a sand empire

Sol
yeah let's not put the horse before the cart
or however the saying goes

Moppy
....

Sol
jujmp the shark

Horanoven A.
the Horse goes BEHIND the cart
Jump the Shark is where things go insane

Drufle (GM)
Wow, no wonder our campaigns always break down.

Sol
'before' as in th cart pulling the horse

Horanoven A.
and keeps going insane

Moppy
let's get on with it

Drufle (GM)
Carts pulling horses...
Yeah.

Horanoven A.
right, game

Moppy
teleport us to bastion, mr GM

Horanoven A.
lets go

R�senfeld
"And these are the guys who are meant to lead us to victory, Drumun? For real?"

Rose is so ready

Drufle (GM)
So last time we did an awful lot of reading.

Sol facepalms

Drufle (GM)
And discovered one Yew Fletcher.

Sol
Ruse.. c'mon man :(
the 4th waall

Drufle (GM)
So we're gonna go find us his heart, which obviously will be very easy.

Drumun
"Eh, seems like a good idea to me, Russ"

R�senfeld
his heart.. is a woman
how romantic
Kappa
iirc it's that gem we forgot?

Rose can track him if hes moved

R�senfeld
or rather didn't really bother with?

Drufle (GM)
Kinda, yeah.

Drumun
now that would be a twist
the ancient relic is a person

Drufle (GM)
So we're going to just boat right to Bastion, right?

Rose
yes

R�senfeld
yeah sure

H. Knight
how long would that take?

Drufle (GM)
Hm...

Drumun
I cannot think of anything else to do in the interim
Oh wait I still need to get Thicket a new spell...
crap

Drufle (GM)
I'm going to say two days of sailing.

H. Knight
you really don't

Drufle (GM)
Although we do run into a slight problem.

Drumun
I mean
once she hits level 10 you'll get ammo with all her spells

Rose
whyat

Drumun
BONE MACHINES

Drufle (GM)
Which is that the blood tide has not yet reached the Northern Reaches, and the Sunset Song moves faster than the blood tide.

H. Knight
yeah
so we're gonna have to disembark and then hoof it
literally, in my case

R�senfeld
you hoof it
we leg it

Rose
so we have some hiking to do

Drumun
NO WORRIES! The Sunset Song is of dwarven construction
it has wheels

R�senfeld
lmao

H. Knight
..........

Rose
lol

R�senfeld
druf
please approve this

Drufle (GM)
I'd want to argue that, but it honestly makes sense.

R�senfeld
YES
horanoven
you fuckin' levend
legend*

Rose
yay

H. Knight
activate the amphibious mode

Drumun looks real smug as he drives the boat onto land

Drufle (GM)
Do I have a car song for the carboat...
I only had boat songs planned.

Drumun
"Dwarves prepare fer EVERYTHIN"

H. Knight
"I Cannot Believe You Prepared For This"

Rose
I can. how else woud they get the boat to the water

R�senfeld
"I can't say I've ever ridden a road-boat

H. Knight
true, Rose

Drumun
"It ain't often ah need ta use this feature"

R�senfeld
"Well I imagin they built them on a dry dock"
"Like most other boats"

Drumun
"But when ah do its the best thing ever"

R�senfeld
"12-wheel drive? you got hydraulics?"
where's the stereo

Drumun
"Only tha finest"

Rose
i want to know how much damage the boats cannon does

Drumun
this ain't a warboat unfortunately

H. Knight
this is a wrought-iron pleasure yacht
Drufle this is _horse_ music

Drumun
I already go away with one silly thing, I don't want to press my luck until later

Rose
lol

Drumun
*got

Drufle (GM)
Horses are like slower cars!

Rose
i was thinking highway to hell

Drufle (GM)
Oh hell yes one second.

R�senfeld
good choice

Rose curtsies

Drumun
that is perfect in many ways

Drumun turns on the stereo he totally has

Drumun
"Lets do this"

Rose is air guitaring with her bow

Drufle (GM)
So the Sunset Song plows down off the blood ocean, sliding onto the blasted lands of the Northern Reach, peeling out towards the city of Bastion.

R�senfeld
this is such a good choice

Drumun
we could literally be on a highway to hell with how things are going, honestly

R�senfeld
seriously
on so many levels

Drufle (GM)
It almost feels strange, seeing the world not covered in nasty red water, seeing the occasional person around.

Rose
i know

H. Knight
how do the people react to us

Rose
i wonder what they are thinking right now

R�senfeld
what do the people think about the carboat?

H. Knight salutes a passing farmer

Drufle (GM)
I mean realistically, they're absolutely terrified.

Rose
well it is covered in blood

Drufle (GM)
An elf, a dwarf, a massive robotaur, and a grizzled human are gliding around on a boat with wheels.

Drumun
we're blaring Highway to Hell while driving a giant metal dwarven boat

Drufle (GM)
Also it is covered in bloodish water, yeah.

R�senfeld
oh
heh
that would be a sight

Rose
i want one

H. Knight
drumun does this boat have tyres or treadds

R�senfeld
it has fucking SPIDER LEGS

Drumun
Tyres, the boat needs to be able to retract them

R�senfeld
ok tires then

H. Knight
you can retract treads too but w/e ' 3'

Drumun
Drumun couldn't afford the spider legs option

R�senfeld
treads are more of a bitch to clean

Rose
its all clockwork

Drufle (GM)
So eventually, the blood tide disappears from sight behind you, and a few hours later, you arrive at Bastion.

Drumun
"Here we are, folks"

Drumun turns off the stereo

R�senfeld
"Well, this was a surprisingly smooth ride. Gotta love Dwarven tech."

Drumun
"Mind yer step, we're a bit high off tha ground"

Rose vaults off

R�senfeld
"When I was little my dad had some Dwarven puzzle toys, I never solved any of them. Haven't heard from my dad since.. well, in a long time, either."

Drumun
uh oh we lost mopp
"Oh, those toys"
"Ah guess you'd like to know that those things are actually unsolvable"

R�senfeld
"Nope, that is news to me."

R�senfeld smiles wryly at Drumun

Rose
cant dwarven toys take a lifetime to solve

Drumun
"They're cleverly designed to get kids ta spend hours on them, but they ain't actually possible"

Drufle (GM)
(i have to find a new song because the old bastion one is soundcloud-only)

R�senfeld
:(

Rose
awe
wonder boy

Drumun
"Mah dad used them with mah younger brother"

R�senfeld
"My dad insisted he had solved them. Heh."
wb moppy

H. Knight
look at this tiny podunk town

Drumun
"This place looks a bit worse fer wear"

R�senfeld
I remember roy QQ

Rose
tenacious d wonder boy

Drumun
are there any people left?

Drufle (GM)
The town is entirely abandoned, as far as you can see.
Not a soul walking around.

Rose
can i see any tracks on the floor and how fresh are they?
rolling 1d20 ( 5 ) = 5
nope

Drumun
"Ah'm gettin kinda...nostalgic?"
"Issat tha word"

Drufle (GM)
The ground is too muddled for you to see anything of interest.

Drumun
I shall try to use my Boar Senses
Perception Challenge
Roll 6

Drufle (GM)
Nice.

Drumun
sniff sniff

Drumun sneezes

Drufle (GM)
Oh, I totally forgot, Paladins and Rangers got buffed in the newest book.
One sec while I go remember the changes.
H. Knight:
Perception Challenge
Roll 11

H. Knight raises his antenna

Drufle (GM)
You don't seem to hear anything close by.

H. Knight
"nothing on Sonar, team"

Rose
comeone buffs

Drufle (GM)
Alright, the Paladin changes are that your faith healing can heal 1d6 per rank of spell you expend, but it can only be used on people with 0 corruption now.

Drumun
shit

Drufle (GM)
Also you get a power called Divine Cause that lets you expend a spell when you make a save and get boons equal to its rank.

Rose
and me?

Drufle (GM)
I think both of you have 1 corruption.

H. Knight
I'm still fresh yo

R�senfeld
I don't have faith healing

Drumun
Drumun has been a good boy for so long

R�senfeld
right?

Drufle (GM)
So he can heal you normally, just not with his paladin powers.

R�senfeld
oh is it a talent?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

Drumun
still hasn't dealt with that corruption...

Rose
i have 2 corruption

R�senfeld
oh yu i got it listed here
meh w/e i can heal you pretty reliably
oh druf
did my spell counts change
since i'm power 5?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
The Ranger changes are that you now make all nature-related checks with 2 boons.

Rose
do i get any buffs looing for stuff with my ranger and tracker?
oh good

Drufle (GM)
That seems to be it.

R�senfeld
so do i riase all of them by 1?
raise*

Drufle (GM)
One sec, Ruse.

R�senfeld
sorry

Rose
rolling 1d20+2d6k1( 16 )+( 4 + 6 ) = 22
now what do i see

Drufle (GM)
6 rank 0, 3 rank 1, 2 rank 2, 2 rank 3, 1 rank 4, 1 rank 5.
The town seems to have been emptied out at least a week ago, if not earlier; news of the flood traveled quickly, so the townsfolk must have left to go somewhere else.

R�senfeld
remind me how we have learned of where the heart is?

Rose
in a book

H. Knight
we deduced it

Drumun
the mage tower

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

Drumun
and deduction

H. Knight
from the books, and our own memories

R�senfeld
right

Rose
well not mine

R�senfeld
so we know it's in the crypt?

Drumun
yeah

Drufle (GM)
You saw a picture of the heart in a book, and then Drumun/HK remembered seeing it.

H. Knight
we assume it's still in the crypt

R�senfeld
aight

Rose
we think its still there

R�senfeld
let's go to the crypt then, this town is abandoned

Drumun
"Well, les get this over wit"

Rose
being dead and all

H. Knight flexes his hands

Rose flexes her bow

Drumun
"How much ye wanna bet there's somethin new in here?"

Rose
1 gp

H. Knight
"The Enemy Has Likely Fortified Their Defenses"

Drufle (GM)
The catacombs are just as you remember them, although even dustier.

R�senfeld
"I don't really want to bet on that."

Drumun
"Good man, Russ"

R�senfeld
"Because I -know- it's gonna be true. And it's not a fair bet."

Drumun casts Oak Hide on himself

Drufle (GM)
The four standing sarcophagi, the rickety old wooden door to the left...

H. Knight
right

R�senfeld
"So which one was it in again?
"\

Rose
rolling 1d20+2d6k1( 15 )+( 4 + 3 ) = 19
Drumun:

PERCEIVE!!!

Drufle (GM)
I mean, are you just looking around the room

Rose
man you got this

Drufle (GM)
?

Drumun
I'm listenning

R�senfeld
Drumun use Leer!

Drumun
I'm at the door

R�senfeld
It's super effective!

Rose
I'm ni the roo ooking for tracks
in and room

Drufle (GM)
The room through the door is silent, and you can actually see a bit as some of the wood has started to splinter a bit.
There don't appear to be any tracks whatsoever in this room.

Drumun
"How'd this place git worse since we were last here?"

Rose
oh good

Drumun tries the door

Rose
its been a while i guess

H. Knight
"How Is It Likely To Get Better?"

R�senfeld
"We'll find out, won't we?"

Drumun
"Ah'm surprised it could get worse from when we were last here"
"It was pretty bad last time"

Drufle (GM)
Here's the old room where you fought your first demon; the bone dust still lies in a small pile in the corner.
H. Knight:
Perception Challenge

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

Rose
rolling 1d20+2d6k1( 4 )+( 5 + 3 ) = 9

Drumun

Rose, you get bonuses on Per checks, remember?
R�senfeld:

wtf
i rolled a 3

Drumun
why are we forsaken so?

Rose
i did already, i rolled a 4

Drufle (GM)
Rose passes because she forgot her +2 to perception.

Rose
oh
thank god, or someone

Drumun
Thank the GM

Drufle (GM)
Although she doesn't really see anything weird because this is her first time here and thus can't tell if anything is different.

H. Knight
oh well

Drumun
so be it

Rose
better to look through fresh eyes

Drumun
so I have 2 Sanctuary scrolls
I can cast one to become invisible

Drumun pulls out a sanctuary scroll

Drumun
"Ye want me ta look ahead?"

H. Knight
"Hold On"

R�senfeld
"Might be prudent."
Rose:
Agility Challenge
Roll 0

Drumun casts the scroll on himself

Drufle (GM)
The hallway north is pallid and empty, the corpses in the wall still and quiet.

H. Knight picks up a rock and tosses it down the corridor

Rose
nope

Drumun
no checks because I have Power 2 now
Invisi-Drumun, AWAAAAAY
Perception Challenge
Roll 3
well, I see nothing, ONWARD

Rose
is the door at the other side of the room?

H. Knight
GM, id my rock do anything?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
Oh, the rock?
No.

Drumun
I am going to try to do this stealthily

H. Knight
ok!

R�senfeld
we already triggered that trap once

Drumun
Stealth is...AGI right?

R�senfeld
who'd bother to reset it?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.
AGI.
You have a boon from your boots.
Drumun:
Agility Challenge
Roll 10
thank the boots

R�senfeld
boonts
Drumun:
Perception Challenge
Roll 2

Drufle (GM)
You step carefully through the catacombs, trying not to wake any of the dead.

Drumun
Can you guys not follow the invisible dwarf so quickly?

Drufle (GM)
THESE ROOMS SURE ARE EMPTY HUH

R�senfeld
stop being such a blind dwarf

Drumun
I don't need to see when I can't be seen

Drufle (GM)
This room still has most of the spider webs that were here last time.

Drumun
oh right the spider might be in here

H. Knight
the thing is, the invisibility also makes him unable to see

Rose
rolling 1d20+2d6k1 +2( 6 )+( 6 + 4 )+2 = 14

H. Knight
alll the light passes through his eyes

R�senfeld
he becomes invisible by covering his eyes
secrets of the sanctuary scroll revealed

Drumun
its working so far

Drufle (GM)
Rose can tell that nothing living has been in this room for at least months.

Drumun
I only have two of these so I hope this one is worthwhile

H. Knight
what about... dead?

Rose
"all dead guys"

Drufle (GM)
Harder to tell with dead things.

Drumun moves onward

Drufle (GM)
The door at the end of the hallway hangs open.

H. Knight
oh the statue's still here
Drumun:
Perception Challenge
Roll 11
HMMM
What do my invisible eyes see?
ROSE
At least wait till we kknow what's up

Drufle (GM)
The construct that first filled you with fear so many years ago still stands against the wall.
Time has not done well for it.

Drumun
there's a reason I'm invisible for this

Rose
rolling 1d20+2d6k1+2( 15 )+( 2 + 1 )+2 = 19
there is a reason I'm the ranger lol

Drumun
I'm going to slip through this door and then close it behind me because give me a chance to warn you guys before you rush in!
I already succeeded the perception challenge and I've been here before

H. Knight
famous last words, buckaroo

Rose
what does my 19 see in this room?

Drufle (GM)
Rose, you get 2 boons on nature-related checks, not perception.
Just 1 boon for perception.

Rose
I'm doing nature

H. Knight
this is a crypt.

Drumun
there is zero nature down here

Drufle (GM)
There is nothing natural about what you see in here.

Drumun moves onward

H. Knight
still, 18

R�senfeld
uh oh
y ousee that
RIP
Drumun:

H. Knight
hi buddy!

Rose
catacooms are usualy built from natural formations, i should see from the dirt in the ground if something isn't right

Drumun
well I see nothing but the obvious

Drufle (GM)
The walls are carved stone.

Drumun
the floors are tiled stone

Drufle (GM)
The floors are also stone, yes.

Rose
damn

Drumun
well I'm pretty sure I at least see the ghoul

Drufle (GM)
You see the ghoul, flayed and dismembered, lying on the same pile of corpses that were there years ago.

H. Knight
aww
buddy....

Rose
bless

Drumun
wait the GHOUL was killed?
I must report this

Drumun walks back, invisibly, and reports the death of the ghoul, while invisible

R�senfeld
um
i'm not even gonna make a quip
i'm hapy it's dead
good riddance
:D

H. Knight
"I Had Not Thought It Would Have Remained Here."
"Could You Tell How Recently It Was Killed?"

Drumun
"I didn't think it'd be dead"

R�senfeld
"So what killed it?"

Drumun
can I investigate?
"It was torn into pieces"

R�senfeld
"I think that's probably the most pressing question
"What killed it, and is it still here"

Drumun
"This is why I made myself invisible"

H. Knight
well then

R�senfeld
GHOST?!

Drumun
excuse you?

Drufle (GM)
You take 18 damage as a specter suddenly materializes from behind you and touches your very soul.

R�senfeld
seems like something my haunting spirit would've spoken up about

Drumun
"GAH!"

H. Knight whips around at the noise

Drumun
"We got company!"

Rose
could i do a nature check. i should be able to perceive what is the exact opposite of nature

R�senfeld
it's too late now anyway

Drufle (GM)
It is exceedingly unnatural.

R�senfeld
we're in combat
H. Knight:

its a ghost so I don't think I can hit it

R�senfeld
that is, e already know it's there
we*

H. Knight
"I Can Barely See It!"

Drufle (GM)
You actually can, it just takes half damage from physical sources.

R�senfeld
do my silver bolts damage it?

Drufle (GM)
They do!

Drumun
also are you fucking serious what was the point of this Sanctuary scroll?

R�senfeld
finally something they come in useful for

H. Knight
didn't plan for ghosts did you

Drufle (GM)
I didn't know you guys were gonna invis through this place?

Drumun
I didn't plan for ghosts not giving a shit about invisibility

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, fast turns!

Drumun
I am trying to use these scrolls for something

H. Knight
anyway, FAST TURN

R�senfeld
i shall go fast

Drufle (GM)
And I appreciate that!

R�senfeld
people go ahead of me

Rose
slow for me

R�senfeld
so i can TA a prayer

Rose
i need to mark

Drufle (GM)
This specter is technically horrifying, but let's be honest.
You guys have seen everything.

H. Knight
that nightmare was worse

R�senfeld
yeah i mean Ruse will be like "oh, another one? goddamnit."

Drumun
I'll use my triggered action to focus Qi
is Qi physical or magical?

Rose
soo much worse

Drumun
I want to know if Qi Strike would be halved by this ghost?

Drufle (GM)
It's still a weapon strike, so I think it still counts as physical.

Drumun
okay
just making sure

Drufle (GM)
Ruse's bolts ignore that though, because they're silver.
And THIS is the kind of monster that is actually hurt by silver.

Drumun
I'll spend the rest of my turn going Boar I guess?

R�senfeld
nobody's attacking in the fast section?

Rose
what about a metior arrow?

H. Knight
I should have tipped my lance with silver
not so close to drumun. geez

Rose
or what ever the spellimg is

Drufle (GM)
Well, that's magic, so the meteor part would do full damage.
Not the arrow part.
Oh, uh, also he's immune to fire?
So don't do that.

Rose
damn

H. Knight
it's nice that you tell us here

Drufle (GM)
damage from cold, disease, fire, and poison;
gaining Insanity; asleep, blinded, deafened, diseased,
fatigued, immobilized, poisoned, slowed afflictions

H. Knight
and not in pathfinder

Drufle (GM)
There's the full list of immunities.

H. Knight
where it matters

R�senfeld
hm

Drufle (GM)
Well, there's no proper check for that kind of thing in this game.

H. Knight
right

R�senfeld
I could try out my Fire From Heavaen :P

H. Knight
anyway, I think it's in lance range

Drufle (GM)
It is!

H. Knight
so I'll stab the ghot

Drufle (GM)
Stab away.

R�senfeld
good! i'll pray for you
you get 1d6 extra damage as well as a boon
since its a weapon strike
from the prayer
just so you know

H. Knight
ok!
LANCE
Attack 13
Damage 15

Drufle (GM)
Oof.
Not even close, sorry.

H. Knight
aww

H. Knight 's lance passes right through the spectre

Drufle (GM)
Anyone else going fast?

R�senfeld
me
did we decide each tile is a yard?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

Rose
where is it?

Drumun
the phantom is right next to me

Rose
thanks

Drumun
being a pain in the ass

R�senfeld
ok, and how does radius work in this context?
5 yard radius

Drufle (GM)
Aim at a square and use the ruler to measure around it.

Drumun
5 tile radius I assum

Drufle (GM)
Uh, one sec.

R�senfeld
yeah it's measured in feet so

Drumun
...

R�senfeld
'un'?

Drumun
hmmm

Drufle (GM)
Er, one second.

Drumun
I don't think that worked

Drufle (GM)
Sigh, one more second.

Drumun
Roll20 was not prepared for this

Drufle (GM)
FINALLY
There.

Drumun
UNs are tiles it seems

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

H. Knight
units

Drufle (GM)
5 United Nations in radius.

Drumun
you don't have to specifically aim at a tile

R�senfeld
this doesn't seem right though

Drufle (GM)
What are you trying to do?

R�senfeld
there must be somewhere where I don't catch drumun

Drumun
if you want to avoid hitting me you can just push it a tiny amount

R�senfeld
with Fire From Heaven
I could incapacitate this ghost and delete it in one strike if I'm lucky

Drufle (GM)
Probably not, with the shape of this room.

H. Knight
I don't think there is

Drufle (GM)
You'd have to aim outside of the room.

H. Knight
has drufle moved?

Drufle (GM)
Which you aren't allowed to do.

H. Knight
he could hop back a bit

Drumun
what's down here?

Drufle (GM)
That's just a wall.

Drumun
it doesn't look like it

Drufle (GM)
This premade map had a staircase there to another level.

Drumun
it looks like the map has something down there

H. Knight
the shadow jjust vanishes at that point

Drufle (GM)
I just painted over it.

Drumun
ah okay

H. Knight
Druf mentioned this in the very first sesh

R�senfeld
well shit
no fire from heaven unless you shift it drumun

H. Knight
shoot it with your silver arrows jeez

R�senfeld
aw

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, why not just divine smite it?

R�senfeld
i wanted to explode things ::(
you guys are no fun

Drufle (GM)
You get the doubled damage because it's a monster.

H. Knight
explode the actual boss

Drumun
hold Alt when using the ruler
it unsnaps from the grid
allowing for greater precision

R�senfeld
I should probably just avatar first then

Drufle (GM)
Yes, but you do still have to aim at a square.
If not from book rules, from Drufle rules.

Drumun
boo

R�senfeld
yeah, i'm gonna avatar first

Drufle (GM)
Rose, are you going fast too?
Uh, Rose?

H. Knight
keep forgetting to put my phone on
in case she drops dead

R�senfeld
well that's grim
dead people don't phone, anyway

H. Knight
you know what I mean

R�senfeld
but legit have we lost her? she's still connected

Drufle (GM)
She probably just went afk.

Drumun
would've been nice if she said so

R�senfeld
she said she was going slow, btw

Drufle (GM)
Oh, did she?
Well then.

Rose
I'm slow

R�senfeld
yes, she said she needed to mark

Rose
sorry
gran arrived

Drufle (GM)
Monster fast turns, then.
The specter reaches out to poke Drumun again.
rolling d20+6+2d6k1 ( 13 )+6+( 3 + 4 ) = 23

H. Knight
OW

R�senfeld
jeez

Drufle (GM)
rolling 5d6( 3 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 3 ) = 17

R�senfeld
no dodging that

Drufle (GM)
17 damage, and 1 insanity.

Drumun
I don't even get a saving roll?

Drufle (GM)
This isn't, like, a special attack.

R�senfeld
he rolled 23 against your agi

Drufle (GM)
This is just it's normal stabby stab.

R�senfeld
there's no save to be made

Drumun
35/60

H. Knight
ghosts are awful, man

Drufle (GM)
And you automatically take 1 insanity if he rolls over 20.

Drumun
I'm already below half

Drufle (GM)
Next!
You hear a loud growl, like a terrible hound.

Drumun
I'm going to die

H. Knight
oh boy

Drumun
this is literally the end

Drufle (GM)
The tiles to the lower left rupture in flame and black lightning, and a strange dog-like creature crawls out of the hole.

H. Knight
didn't know your ability was Defeatist

Drumun
I've take 35 damage

Drufle (GM)
Slow turns!

Drumun
I have 60 health

R�senfeld
he took half his HP in damage in the first sectio nof combat
don't worry tho I have total healing

Rose
hound or ghost

R�senfeld
and I'm gonna try to wipe the ghost out this turn

H. Knight
I'll take the dog

R�senfeld
i mena next round
yes please do take the dog
literally

Drufle (GM)
That's, uh, kind of a hard question to answer, Rose.

R�senfeld
lift it and put it to one side

Drufle (GM)
Rose is taking a shot at something, I imagine?

Rose
ill mark the.............

R�senfeld
mark the ghost, focus fire is alwayts the best solution
always*

Rose
ghost
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 11
Damage 28

R�senfeld
damn

Rose
damn

H. Knight
:(

Drufle (GM)
So much for luck being on our side in this fight.
Top of the round, who's going fast?

Rose
me

R�senfeld
can HK actually graple the dog?

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 6 ) = 6
I'm attacking, of course

Drufle (GM)
Oh, very nice.

H. Knight
I'm not doing that unless it gets in my face

Drufle (GM)
Drumun, strike away.

Drumun
I want this thing d- uh

R�senfeld
it's gonna get in MY face if we don't deal with it

Drumun
deader

R�senfeld
is he near enough ffor prayer?
prayer is short range
Drumun:
Qi Strike!
Attack 20
Damage 27

Drufle (GM)
Er, is he?

R�senfeld
or should I pray for rose

Drufle (GM)
He doesn't need it.

R�senfeld
mkay

Drufle (GM)
He is in range, though.

R�senfeld
i'll pray for rose then

Drumun pulls his hands back, building energy before striking with both palms

R�senfeld
is she going fast?

Rose
what is my total bonuses aswell

Drumun spends a triggered action to regain Focus

Rose
yes i am

Drufle (GM)
The specter shakes and shivers as your energetic strike splinters pieces of it.
Rose, you may fire away.

Drumun
"Material or spiritual, they're two sides of the same coin"

Drufle (GM)
You get one extra boon and another d6 of damage.

Rose
ho9w many boons

Drufle (GM)
I think 3 boons.

Rose
in total, ive lost track

R�senfeld
1 from prayer, 2 from mark an trickery?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 23
Damage 24

R�senfeld
is that with extra damage from prayer?

H. Knight
noice

Drufle (GM)
Another 12 damage to ghost boy.

Rose
oh no

R�senfeld
ad 16

Drumun
are ghosts immune to healing?

Rose
rolling 1d6( 6 ) = 6

R�senfeld
add 1d6*
15 damage ain't too bad

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, this isn't final fantasy.
Healing ghosts doesn't hurt them.

Drumun
but does it heal them?

H. Knight
also not D&D

Drufle (GM)
Uh, I guess not?

Drumun
because Rose has a healing arrow

Rose
did you add the extra damage?

Drufle (GM)
I did.

Rose
i rolled a 6

Drufle (GM)
Ruse, are you going fast?

Drumun
if the ghosts can't be healed, that'd be a way to deal damage yet also heal allies

Rose
o i do lol

R�senfeld
yeah

Rose
so i can shoot people to heal them?

R�senfeld
i'm gonna shoot the ghost, with divine smite, expending a cast of Wrath of God

Drufle (GM)
Righto.

H. Knight
please hit please hit please hit
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 19
WOOO

Drufle (GM)
That's a go.

R�senfeld
ok let's work out the damage

Drumun
ze missiles, zey are firein

Drufle (GM)
Barely.

R�senfeld
it's 2d6 for crossbow,

Drufle (GM)
Is Wrath of god rank 4?

R�senfeld
+2d6 from avatar, +... 3d6 from ther rank 3 spell?

Drufle (GM)
6d6, it's a monster.

R�senfeld
oh sweet

Drufle (GM)
So 10d6 total.

Drumun
big damage

R�senfeld
rolling 10d6( 5 + 2 + 6 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 5 ) = 39
BOOM!@%#$^

Drumun
real big damage

Rose
fuck

R�senfeld
holy crap that roll tho

Drumun
only a single 1

R�senfeld
and 3 4s

Drumun
yeah those are nice

R�senfeld
2 5s 26s
my god

Drumun
two 6s as well
no 26s though

Drufle (GM)
The specter wavers and crackles as it begins to fracture.

Drumun
its only a 6 sided die

R�senfeld
2 6s*

Drufle (GM)
Is HK going fast?

R�senfeld
:P

Drumun
"P
:P

H. Knight
how's the ghost looking healthwise

Drufle (GM)
Not great.

Rose
not good

Drufle (GM)
Approximately 1/3-1/2 health.

Drumun
I can probably take one more hit from that ghost

H. Knight
oh ok
so I won't kill it
if I hit it

Drufle (GM)
Unlikely.

Drumun
but I will be in serious trouble if that dog goes for me too

R�senfeld
I wonder why only I opted to buy silver weaponry?

H. Knight
alright I'll

R�senfeld
:3

Drumun
I can't carry silver

H. Knight
interpose myself here

R�senfeld
you can't?

H. Knight
and stabbity the woof

Drufle (GM)
Because silver weaponry is only useful against skinchangers and ghosts, and this is the first ghost this entire campaign.

Drumun
I am a skinchanger, silver is an issue for me

Drufle (GM)
Take a stab, HK.

Drumun
even just holding it

Drufle (GM)
Oh, wait.
I think you're too far away.

H. Knight
there

Drufle (GM)
Also, was that a 5-foot step?
This is still fast turns.

H. Knight
that was me re-doing my movement
it doesn't matter where I am
as long as I am
between the dog and drumun

R�senfeld
you need to go back to where you were then

Drufle (GM)
You can be there.

H. Knight
ok

R�senfeld
ah yeah

Drumun
lance away

Drufle (GM)
(also i just forgot that yvonne is technically here)

Drumun
yeah she would be nice right now

H. Knight
she stayed at the entrance lol

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
did she bring the thermos?

H. Knight
"have fun guys!"

R�senfeld
it'd be nice to have a cuppa after the fight for once

Drufle (GM)
She'll be the guard.
Roll away, HK.

Rose
just incase we start to die
H. Knight:
LANCE
Attack 16
Damage 23
god dammit

Drumun
how in the world are ghosts so much more powerful than the creatures they came form?

Drufle (GM)
Barely a miss.
damage from cold or fire; gaining Insanity;
charmed, compelled, frightened
There's its immunities, by the way.

R�senfeld
you lose the burden of having to support a corporeal form

Drufle (GM)
So, monster fast turns.

R�senfeld
less anchoring, ore power
more*

Drumun
wow
time for MORE DAMAGE YAY
afdlaksdg

Drufle (GM)
Specter is going to just go smack Ruse and take no Aoos because it is a ghost.

R�senfeld
ok ouch

Drumun
okay wut

H. Knight
"What The-?"

R�senfeld
my agi will not save me here

Drumun
But drufle

R�senfeld
like there's no way

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+6+2d6k1( 10 )+6+( 6 + 1 ) = 22

Drumun
little did you realize

Rose
ok i can move half now right?

Drumun
you just opened up Flying Kick opportunities

Drufle (GM)
:P
Not yet, Rose.

R�senfeld
maybe he id that on purpose

Drufle (GM)
rolling 5d6( 6 + 1 + 4 + 5 + 3 ) = 19

Drumun
shit this is going to hurt

Drufle (GM)
19 damage and 1 insanity, Ruse.

Rose
but you moved, its my triggered action

Drufle (GM)
Oh, shit.
Yeah, she's right.

Drumun
mobile rose

Rose
do i shoot aswell?

Drufle (GM)
No.

Rose
damn

Drufle (GM)
Just the movement.

R�senfeld shakes, his knees buckling slightly at having his soul clawed at

Drufle (GM)
The doggy is taking a slow turn which, since none of you went slow, is now!

Rose
oh half my movement is 6

H. Knight stares down the hound

R�senfeld
ok now it's in your face HK

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 9 )+5+( 4 + 1 + 5 ) = 19

R�senfeld
hug it?
next round?
:3

Rose
kiss it

Drumun
something tells me it doesn't care about armor

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6+2-4d6+2d6( 6 + 1 + 4 + 3 )+2-( 1 + 6 + 4 + 3 )+( 5 + 3 ) = 10
10 total damage.

Drumun
or it does?
hello?

Drufle (GM)
The last 2d6 is fire damage and thus ignores armor.

Rose
Liverpool style

Drumun
is this not a soul touch?

H. Knight
oof
this is a physical mutt ya mutt

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, top of the round!

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 4 ) = 4

Drufle (GM)
Oh, crap.
I just forgot a thing.

Drumun
stoooooop
this fight is enough of an issue

Drufle (GM)
Ruse and HK, both make a STR check.

R�senfeld
wut

Drufle (GM)
I'll ignore Drumun's since I forgot those.
H. Knight:
Strength Challenge
Roll 18
R�senfeld:
Strength Challenge
Roll 3
:(

Drufle (GM)
rolling d6( 6 ) = 6
Ruse takes another 6 damage.

Drumun
holy fuck
that was not needed

R�senfeld
why?

Drufle (GM)
As the specter's presence sucks life energy away.

R�senfeld
oh ok

H. Knight
ok that's prio
dfinitely prio

Drufle (GM)
Right, so, fast turns.

R�senfeld
motherfucker is gonna go down

Drumun
I'll attack again

R�senfeld
i need to reload tho

Drumun
unless Rose wants to take a shot first

Rose
FAST

R�senfeld
actually

H. Knight
I'll attack both when the time comes

Drumun
I'll by flying kicking of course

R�senfeld
drufle can I switch weapons as a ta or something

Drufle (GM)
Minor activity, actually.
That other action nobody remembers.

R�senfeld
how does that economise?
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 17
Damage 16

Drumun
its super cheap

Drufle (GM)
You get 1 in a fast turn and 2 in a slow.
Miss on the ghost.

R�senfeld
cool, i'm going fast
switching to staff

Rose
damn

R�senfeld
and... divine smite! again!
expending another wrath of god
this is 1d6 less than beffore
if i hit
btw can i retro-pray for rose? :P
so we can both have boos

Drumun
finesse to victory

R�senfeld
boons

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

R�senfeld
damnit
next time lemme know rose! :P

Rose
save it for HK

Drufle (GM)
You can pray for yourself, if you want.

R�senfeld
i can?
oh i can

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
yeah that's what I am going to do, sorry HK

Drumun
have you not realized this?
all this time?

R�senfeld

H. Knight
I'm Fine
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 12

H. Knight
Inquisition, Heal Thyself

Drufle (GM)
Oof.

R�senfeld
nevermind, it's not a hit

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

Drumun
okay

Drufle (GM)
Drumun's turn.

Drumun slams his foot into the ground and points at the ghost dramatically

Drumun
LEAP!!

R�senfeld
you might want to wait with the flying kick, i forgot to total heal you

H. Knight

*it askes
Drumun:
Flying Qi Kick!
Attack 9
Damage 27

R�senfeld
jeez

Drumun

Rose

H. Knight

Drumun
I use my triggered action to refocus

Rose
through the ghost

Drufle (GM)
This is going to be a very interesting session for the roll chart.

Drumun
If we live

Drufle (GM)
HK, your turn.
Swing away.

R�senfeld
we'll live

H. Knight
jeez man
did rose hit the ghost?

R�senfeld
i have all sorts of prezzies that I should start using

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

Drumun
no one hit the ghost

Drufle (GM)
All of you missed.

R�senfeld
stupid ghost..

H. Knight
Damn I'll just attack it then
fuck this doh
g

Drufle (GM)
DOH

R�senfeld

Drumun
Doh I missed

R�senfeld

H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 11
Damage 27
AAAGH

R�senfeld
my god

Drumun
we are incapable of hitting it

Drufle (GM)
I'm suspicious now.
Where did all your good dice go.

H. Knight
you STOLE THEM

Drumun
the ghost took it

Rose
friday

Drumun
the fucker

R�senfeld
random is random

Drufle (GM)
I think Rose is right, yeah.

R�senfeld
we can get 20 heads
we can get 20 1 rolls
in a row

Drumun
the issue is when luck fucks us up right when we least need it

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, time for the Specter to poke Ruse again.

H. Knight
this will kill him

R�senfeld
can it not
it hasn't even bought me dinner yet

Drumun
does his ghost friend not help him?

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+6+2d6k1( 8 )+6+( 4 + 6 ) = 20

R�senfeld
nah i'm good HK, plenty of health

Drufle (GM)
rolling 5d6( 1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 4 ) = 16
16 damage and 1 insanity.

R�senfeld
ouchie

H. Knight
you're the squish wizard though!

Drufle (GM)
He has paladin levels, though.
Gives him a fair bit more health than a normal healer.
And time for the doggy to swing at HK.

R�senfeld
i'm actually fairly close to death tho
now that I look at it
we gotta kill that ghost

Drufle (GM)
Actually, I'll try something different.

H. Knight
don;t you dare

Drumun
stop, bad dog

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5( 8 )+5 = 13

R�senfeld
oh
drufle

Drufle (GM)
What's your Will, HK?

R�senfeld
i forgot to half all my damage
from avatar

H. Knight
10...

Drufle (GM)
Oh, do that then.

R�senfeld
and also to add a boon ffrom avatar
to that attack roll
woops!

Drufle (GM)
Alright, the dog's eyes glow a vehemently bright red, and you feel yourself strained as black flames coat your body.

H. Knight
aaagh

Drumun
you designed this fight specifically to ruin us

Drufle (GM)
You take 1 insanity, and for the next hour you make all rolls with 1 bane and cannot be healed.

R�senfeld
drumun do I try again to kill the ghost next turn or totla heal you?

H. Knight
hour?!

Rose
i knew i should have had dog meat

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, it says 1 hour.

Drumun
Kill EVERY enemy
I'm fine

Drufle (GM)
Oh, and that was its t-action.
So here's the bite.

R�senfeld
hahaha

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+2d6k1( 10 )+5+( 5 + 3 ) = 20

Drumun
its over

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6-4d6+2+2d6( 6 + 1 + 2 + 4 )-( 5 + 1 + 2 + 6 )+2+( 4 + 5 ) = 10

Drumun
this is literally the end

H. Knight
will you JUST SHUT UP

R�senfeld
drumun what are you the doomsayer from DD?

Drufle (GM)
10 more damage, except I think that's actually less?

H. Knight
5

Drufle (GM)
We're forgetting your ablative carapace.
Or at least I am.

H. Knight
I reduced it don worry

Drufle (GM)
Good.
Glad someone is keeping track.

Drumun
I am at a loss as to what to do

Drufle (GM)
Top of the round again!

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 4 ) = 4

Rose
FAST

R�senfeld
fast

Drumun
Hey Rose fire a Springs Grace this time

Drufle (GM)
Let Ruse go first to see if he can deal with this specter.

Drumun
Ghosts aren't healed I think

R�senfeld
so same as before - i pray for myself, and use divine smite to whack this spectre with a stick

Drumun
at least, I think these guys don't get healed

Drufle (GM)
(the dog hasn't been hurt yet but warning that it will be healed if in range)

R�senfeld
i believe staff is 1d6+2?
the base damage

Drumun
oh for fucks sake

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, Ruse.

Drumun
nvm then
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 7
wow...

Drufle (GM)
I'm actually kinda speechless here.

Rose
my arrow only gives a 1 yatd radious healing

Drumun
that is true

R�senfeld
this is with 2 boons

Drufle (GM)
Well, uh, Rose, go ahead.

R�senfeld
yes please murder this ghost

Drumun
any amount of healing to keep us going would be nice

R�senfeld
i asked you if I should total heal, man :P

Drumun
also we really need to help HK, he can't be healed at all
save the total heal for when someone is closer to death

Rose
am i blessed?

R�senfeld
you're the closest to death of all of us

Drufle (GM)
No, Rose.

R�senfeld
I can't bless you from here
plus haven't had the time

Drufle (GM)
He never cast Bless today.

R�senfeld
it's a spell

Drumun
I am not at half anymore

Rose
ok

Drumun
I regened a lot back
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 15
Damage 23

Drufle (GM)
Good lord almighty.
I don't think any of you have rolled above a 10 to hit.

Drumun
the arrows still lands right?

Rose
but he gets healing rate health

Drufle (GM)
It does, yeah.
Ruse and Drumun heal their rate.

H. Knight
drumun did it once

Drufle (GM)
Oh, right.

Rose
i hi8t once

Drufle (GM)
Speaking of Drumun, he hasn't gone yet, right?

Drumun
I have not yet

Rose
or yvone

H. Knight
yvonne is not here

R�senfeld
we forgot that i have innate sense enemies now

Drufle (GM)
Oh, we did.
Whoops.
Drumun:
Qi Strike!
Attack 20
Damage 25

Rose
we may need some devine intervention

H. Knight
yeah!!

Drufle (GM)
Hit!
For... 12 damage.

R�senfeld
YES!
..... STILL GOOD!
better than nothing

Drumun fires a pulse of qi energy at the ghost

Drufle (GM)
Still not re-dead, but getting there.

Drumun
Triggered action to refocus

Drufle (GM)
HK, your turn.

H. Knight
hmm

Drufle (GM)
The specter is now at a point where you could feasibly kill it if you attacked.

H. Knight
yeah

Drumun
the dog is an issue, but it doesn't seem to have soul poking

Drufle (GM)
Remember you have 1 bane on all rolls from the dogfire.

Drumun
so its a lower priority

Drufle (GM)
Oh, wait.
Ruse/Drumun/HK, roll STR.
Drumun:
Strength Challenge
Roll 12
GOD DAMN THESE DICE
H. Knight:
Strength Challenge
Roll 15

Drumun
holy shit its so good that I was boar form

R�senfeld
one mo
does prayer work on this kind of roll?

Drufle (GM)
No, but Divine Cause does.
You can expend a spell to gain boons equal to its rank.

R�senfeld
oh
nope
not doing that
Strength Challenge
Roll 9

Drufle (GM)
rolling d6( 4 ) = 4
4 damage to you, pal.

R�senfeld
not worth it for 2 damage:)

Drufle (GM)
Oh, right.

H. Knight
can you total heal yourself

R�senfeld
AVATAR!

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, HK's turn.

R�senfeld
I have a whopping 10 damage HK

H. Knight
ok then
ok it's drumun who's hurting
slightly

R�senfeld
although I think net round is my last round of avatar

Drumun
not anymore

Rose
and i have more arrows

Drumun
healing rate is literally 15 health

H. Knight
ok then

Drumun
for drumun
I'm at 6 total damage now
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 27
Damage 26

Drumun
feeling slightly better, though I'm probably not going to remain is such good shape

H. Knight
on the ghost

Drumun
also nice

R�senfeld
wooo

Rose
yes

R�senfeld
is it dead yet?

Drufle (GM)
So very barely not dead.

H. Knight finally finds purchase with his claws

R�senfeld
GODDAMNIT

H. Knight
aww

R�senfeld
please just make a piece of the ceiling fall on it or something

Drumun
can I sneeze on the ghost?
finish it off?

Drufle (GM)
I mean, it isn't 1 hp close.

H. Knight
dwarven diseases

R�senfeld
a big piece of the ceiling
:P

Drufle (GM)
Ghost turn!

Drumun
do not underestimate the power of a dwarven sneeze

H. Knight
it uses selfdestruct

Drumun
please attack me with the ghost

H. Knight
don't ASK the GM you fool

Drumun
I can take more punishment now

Drufle (GM)
Let's try a poke at Drumun, sure.

H. Knight
eh w/e

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+6+2d6k1( 13 )+6+( 3 + 5 ) = 24
rolling 5d6 ( 5 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 3 ) = 17

Drumun
I'd rather it hit ME than HK and Russ

R�senfeld
more insanity!

Drufle (GM)
And 1 insanity.

H. Knight
you gone mad yet

Drumun
not even close

H. Knight
good

Drufle (GM)
It occurs to me that you guys should've been frightened and stuff.
But oh well.

H. Knight
you said earlier!

Drumun
I have a class skill that literally removes all insanity if I send a few hours meditating

H. Knight
no fuggin point

Rose
weve seen worse

Drumun
*spend

Drufle (GM)
Well no, that was from the horrifying bit.
You still become frightened whenever you take insanity.
Regardless of where it comes from.

H. Knight
oh
that's

Drumun
yeah no

H. Knight
not fun

R�senfeld
am I not immune to being frighened by some paladin bits?

Drumun
you've seen our luck

Drufle (GM)
Ruse is, I think.

Drumun
we do not need this to be worse

R�senfeld
yeah my avatar prevents it

Drufle (GM)
I think he's totally immune to frightened.

Rose
FAST

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, dog turn.

H. Knight
here comes the part where it's TA stacks

Drufle (GM)
I wish I could use that power more often but it's pretty limited because it is very strong.

Drumun
why is the dog going slow?

H. Knight
thank devil for that

Drufle (GM)
He's not, he's going fast.

Drumun
or is it going fast and I'm not paying attention
okay it was the latter

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 20 )+5+( 1 + 4 + 1 ) = 29

Rose
we all went fast lol

Drufle (GM)
If only 20's meant anything.

Rose
fuck

R�senfeld
gotta go fast, boii!

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6-4d6+2+2d6( 4 + 6 + 6 + 3 )-( 2 + 1 + 4 + 1 )+2+( 5 + 5 ) = 23
11 more damage.

H. Knight
ooffff

R�senfeld
oooh but that damage tho
that's not insignificant even for HK

Drumun
hold on

Drufle (GM)
Now it's top of the round.

Drumun
yeah HK rolled well over 20

Rose
FAST

Drumun
doesn't he get 1d6 extra damage?
rolling 1d6 ( 1 ) = 1
fuck you dice

Drufle (GM)
Uh, yes.

R�senfeld
is that your regen? lol

Drumun
yeah its regen

H. Knight
rolling 1d6( 2 ) = 2

Drufle (GM)
He gets one more d6 against the ghost.
So 1 more damage.

H. Knight
poip

Drumun
I'm punching this ghost
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 10
Damage 22

R�senfeld
ok, well, last bit of avatar, i'm gonna have ot try to whack it again

Drufle (GM)
Rose misses anyway, so go ahead.

R�senfeld

Rose

Drumun

R�senfeld
because I want that extra damage

Rose
BUT THEY CAN HEAL
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge

H. Knight

R�senfeld

Rose

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
That's a miss buddy.

Rose

Drumun

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
Ah, so another rate to the two of you.
Yeah, his DEF is 18.

Drumun

H. Knight

R�senfeld

Drumun:

Attack 21

R�senfeld

H. Knight

Rose

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
The three of you need to make another STR check.

Drumun

H. Knight

R�senfeld

Drumun

H. Knight:
Strength Challenge

R�senfeld:
Strength Challenge

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Oh, it is, don't worry.

Rose

Drumun
I refocuse my qi as a triggered action

Drufle (GM)
Drumun, STR check.
rolling d6 ( 3 ) = 3
1 damage to HK.
Drumun:
Strength Challenge
Roll 21
fuck you ghost

Drufle (GM)
So that was everyone but HK gone.

Rose
i hate these new nails. they are too og to9 type

Drumun
holy shit I expected this to go much worse

Drufle (GM)
(also i was playing kung fu fighting in case it wasn't obvious)

Rose
long to

Drumun
I forgot we had so much healing

H. Knight
oh right

Drumun
I noticed but didn't now why, drufle

R�senfeld
it wasn't obvious because you were mixing two tracks really badly :P
sorry

Rose
my arrows are fairly new

H. Knight
so the ghost's dissipated?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
OR IS IT
No, it's actually gone.

R�senfeld
dude

H. Knight
ok take 5 to celebrate everybody

R�senfeld
i'd have rage quit
legit

Drumun
"I am certain that getting my soul torn apart is not something I want to happen ever again"

H. Knight
oh quick question

Drumun
kill dog, get heart, then celebrate

R�senfeld
"what about your facE? gotta dael with mr pickles o'er there"

Drumun
it isn't over until its over

Drufle (GM)
You say celebrate despite the fact that literally nobody has touched this dog yet.

Drumun
no one has even attacked the dog yet

H. Knight
do ghosts act like in pathfinder where they can't legit be destroyed until the thing binding them to the plane is solved?

R�senfeld
i also have a question when you're done with HK's

Drufle (GM)
They do not.

Rose
I'm going slow to deal with that next

H. Knight
ok good we can leave

R�senfeld
is it possible for me to run, compplete a rest, and come back to the fight?

Drufle (GM)
Er, no?

Drumun
I think that'd take to long

Drufle (GM)
Rests require hours.

H. Knight
when does my prayer run out?

R�senfeld
it's a ta on a single attack/challenge roll

Drufle (GM)
Prayers are a 1-turn thing.

Rose
what about our other party member

H. Knight
ok

R�senfeld
so no way for me to get avatar back?

Drufle (GM)
Yvonne is only coming to help if you guys actually need it.

Drumun
Yvonne is outside

Drufle (GM)
Which you very much don't.
Nope, Ruse.

Drumun
that ghost hit hard

Rose
really?
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 24
Damage 23

R�senfeld
avatar sucks
i hate it

H. Knight
yeahh

R�senfeld
needs a buff

Rose
ouch

H. Knight socks the dog

Drufle (GM)
rolling 2d6( 2 + 1 ) = 3

Drumun
is that full damage?
uhhh

Drufle (GM)
1 damage to HK.

H. Knight
and 1d6 more to the dog
right?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, he does take half damage though.

Drumun
god damn it

H. Knight
rolling 1d6( 4 ) = 4

Drufle (GM)
Also, anyone that strikes him in melee range takes 2d6 damage from the fire spurting out of him.

H. Knight
so why is it hurting me now?
ah
laval woofer

Drumun
hell hound?

Drufle (GM)
Kinda, yeah,

Drumun
what even IS this?

Drufle (GM)
It's actually called a Barghest.

H. Knight
is that his melee range or mine?

R�senfeld
ffiredog
all we need to know

H. Knight
ohh those things

Drufle (GM)
If you are touching him, you take damage.

H. Knight
I thought it was that

Drufle (GM)
Doesn't really matter whose range it is.

H. Knight
lances are not touching him

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, true.

H. Knight
right!

Drufle (GM)
You're still close enough though, so I think you still take the damage.

R�senfeld
you're standin right there tho

H. Knight
balls

Drufle (GM)
You'd have to step back a ways and then poke.

Drumun
well, feet/hooves are so I need to deal with that regardless

H. Knight
I meant for next time
this one I punched him so fair do's

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, top of the round, I think?

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 2 ) = 2
my regen was doing so well before what happened?

R�senfeld
I'm going to fast to use a minor action to switch to crossbow and an action ro reload it

Drumun
FLYING KICK

Drufle (GM)
Gotcha.

H. Knight
equivalent exchange Drumun
bad regen, good to hit
vice versa

R�senfeld
shhh
don't jinx it

Drumun leaps over HK and dropkicks the dog

R�senfeld
you guts and your melee
Drumun:
Flying Qi Kick!
Attack 23
Damage 32

R�senfeld
guys*
HOLY COW

H. Knight
oooof

Drumun
"HYAAAAAAA"
oh sorry

Drufle (GM)
:P
rolling 2d6 ( 5 + 4 ) = 9

Drumun
I thought that spot was open

Drufle (GM)
9 damage for you.
Oh, uh, roll your extra d6.
For crit.

Drumun
I refocus my Qi
rolling 1d6 ( 5 ) = 5
okay

R�senfeld
dog dies? :D

Drufle (GM)
Not even close.

H. Knight
nah this has
more helf than the ghost

R�senfeld
oh hey
wait

Drumun
its only taking half damage from physical attacks

H. Knight
it's got _bones_

R�senfeld
can I TA the prayer
so he can have another 1d6 damage

Drufle (GM)
No.

R�senfeld
damnit

Drufle (GM)
You should remember before they roll, my dude.

R�senfeld
but it is a ta
:(

Rose
how is the dog taking half damage

H. Knight
devil

Drumun
I have no idea
I don't think devils take half damage
we've fought one before

Drufle (GM)
He actually has resilience and spell defense.

R�senfeld
I shouldn't remember jack shit, they should just fucking take it

Drufle (GM)
Very tough buddy.

H. Knight
oof

R�senfeld
relying on me to traack things.. give me a rea
break

H. Knight
so magic won't do well either

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

H. Knight
ok just gotta slog through it

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, Rose hasn't gone yet, has she?

Drumun
why did they do this? just double its health

Rose
I'm slow

Drumun
same thing

Drufle (GM)
Ah, HK?

Rose
i have to mark

Drufle (GM)
Fast?

H. Knight
this is a large enmy

R�senfeld
ok now I can TA my prayer right?

Drufle (GM)
He is large indeed.
Size 2.

R�senfeld
for HK?

Drufle (GM)
Yes, Ruse.

R�senfeld
good

Drufle (GM)
I'd love to use a Roc in this campaign just to see how the hell you're meant to fight it but I could never find an appropriate spot for it.

Drumun
it would not fit anywhere

Rose
could i bring ghesh?

H. Knight
you should have had it ship a bunch of land enemies to us on the tower
and we fight on top of it
random number of rounds before it flips over and dumps us all in the sea

Drumun
its 12 yards in diameter, right?

Drufle (GM)
That'd be pretty hilarious.
Yeah, size 12.

Rose
what is that racket

R�senfeld
that's very dissonnt
dissonant*

H. Knight
ok so grappling wouldn't really help

Drumun
stop trying to layer music on top of each other its not working

H. Knight
I'd likely take continual damage from the fire

Drufle (GM)
I'm not layering music, didn't the last one die out?

Drumun
its still going on my end

R�senfeld
same

Drufle (GM)
Oh, quick refresh then.

H. Knight
can't heal for the rest of the sesh...

R�senfeld
us refresh?

Drumun
you can just wait an hour HK
once this is dead we have time

H. Knight
how do TA work again? can I just do it whenever?

Drufle (GM)
Once per turn.

R�senfeld
yuo have one, and you use it anytime during oyu turn
your*

H. Knight
ok so I'll use that to defend Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Defender!

H. Knight
aye

Drufle (GM)
Lovely.

Rose
we will get yvone and thicket to fix you u and repolish

H. Knight
and then smack the bitch

Drumun
we still dog punching?

Drufle (GM)
Punch away, HK.

H. Knight
we don't know what gender it is it might be a true statement

R�senfeld
it's still a bitch

Drufle (GM)
I don't think Barghests have any concept of gender.

R�senfeld
regardless
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 12
Damage 23

Drumun
what a name

H. Knight
nah

Drufle (GM)
Rats.
Barghest fast turn, then.

R�senfeld
see? such a fucking bitch, my god

Drufle (GM)
Munch a lunch on HK.

R�senfeld
i hate these enemies druf, you picked well

H. Knight
it's a good encounter

Drufle (GM)
It's hilarious, this is barely harder than the last one.

Drumun
It goes against my Dodge Tanking

H. Knight
just
luck

Drufle (GM)
The manticores/drakes were diff 450, this is diff 500.

Drumun
also our luck was utter crap this fight

R�senfeld
it's mechanically well equipped to deal with us
which is why I'm so angry :P

Rose
but i could fire damage the last lot

Drumun
what russ said as well

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 14 )+5+( 6 + 6 + 5 ) = 25
rolling 4d6-4d6+2+2d6 ( 2 + 2 + 1 + 5 )-( 3 + 4 + 6 + 4 )+2+( 5 + 5 ) = 5
2 damage.

H. Knight
why do you even bother rolling that

Drufle (GM)
Exciting.

H. Knight
just hit me

Drufle (GM)
I mean, theoretically I could miss.

H. Knight
pfft

Drumun
how?

Drufle (GM)
What's your DEF again?

H. Knight
ten

Drumun
hmm
okay I see now

R�senfeld
he could totally miss

Rose
all 1ns

Drumun
it'd be very very hard

R�senfeld
there's a good chunk of numbers he could miss with

Drufle (GM)
Then yeah, I only have a 99.17% chance of hitting you.

R�senfeld
it's only +5 mod

H. Knight
well with those odds, what have I got to lose?!

Drumun
a +5 mod with 3 boons

R�senfeld
of which you keep one

Drufle (GM)
Did you take your 2 damage?

Drumun
you are losing a bit of health

H. Knight
yah

Drufle (GM)
Gotcha.
Rose goes.

H. Knight
27/62

Rose
marking

R�senfeld
just tell me when you guys need a t-hea
heal
i have one, tho
so pick carefuly

Drufle (GM)
Thea is a good game.
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 11
Damage 19

Drufle (GM)
Miss.

H. Knight
moderate heal me befoe I get to 31 damage

Rose
nope

Drufle (GM)
I think all of Sam's luck has been siphoned into wotf.

Drumun
HK can't be healed

R�senfeld
I can vit burst and heal all three of us for our rates
right?

Rose
yep

H. Knight
true

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, top of the round.

H. Knight
oh well goodbye ablative coating

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 4 ) = 4

Rose
I'm crit out this game i think

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, but you still take half damage, HK!

R�senfeld
it's up to 3 creatures

Drufle (GM)
From Pain Don't Hurt!

H. Knight
but I like my ablative coat...

R�senfeld
you guys need heals?

H. Knight
I look good as a cataphract

Drumun
I'm fine so far, and HK cannot heal due to hellfire

R�senfeld
becaus it's either that or I pray for myself and try to divine smite again
oh fuck that's right

Drumun
I'll try to murder this dog

Drufle (GM)
It's still a monster, so you still get the double divine smite damage.
Drumun:
Qi Strike!
Attack 14
Damage 18

Drufle (GM)
Miss.

Drumun
sigh* nvm

H. Knight
whats its defense?

Drumun
I'll refocus

Drufle (GM)
17.

H. Knight
aha

Drufle (GM)
Ruse, you can fire away.
Drumun is fine on health and HK cannot be healed.

Drumun
shoot it Russ
how often can the dog use hellfire?
you said it was limited?

Drufle (GM)
Once per minute, so it can use it again in 2 rounds.

R�senfeld
ok well i'm gonna try to expend Wrath

H. Knight
oh noooo

Drumun
I see

R�senfeld
lemme pray adn rll tho
roll*
pray and spray

Drufle (GM)
Also try not to die while under the hellfire's curse.

Drumun
Don't worry it literally cannot hit me with hellfire

Drufle (GM)
Things will go very bad.
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 11
:/

Drufle (GM)
Uh huh.

Drumun
oh noooo

R�senfeld
i want real dice.

Drufle (GM)
Literally can't hit with a 9, so.
Rose, you gonna shoot?
I would 5-foot step down a space.

Rose
is it top of the round again?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
Fast turns.

R�senfeld
oh hey
guys
can drumun and HK move away from the dog
towrads the back where rose is
without taking too much damage?
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 11
Damage 20

Drumun
I'll need time to do so

Drufle (GM)
Miss, HK's turn.

R�senfeld
because I can guarantee a hit with Fire From Heaven

Drufle (GM)
(it's immune to fire damage by the way)

R�senfeld
is it fire damage?1
i thought it was just symbolic

Drumun
I don't know if Fire from Heaven is actually fire

R�senfeld
it doens't sayi t's fire damage

H. Knight
ma holy damage won't work either. it's all a sham

Drufle (GM)
You know, that's a fair point.

Drumun
its probably Holy damage if anything

Rose
i could draw the dog to me, which my triggered movement i would be clear

Drufle (GM)
It doesn't actually specify the damage type.

Drumun
or Faith Damage or whatever Russ deals out now

R�senfeld
oh it says flames
fuck
FUCK
i hate this game
:P
can't wait to be done with it

Drufle (GM)
It's called Fire from Heaven!

Drumun
is it actual flames though?

Drufle (GM)
Of course it's fire!

H. Knight
you might wondwer why I'm not moving away

Drumun
we can't prove that druf

H. Knight
this is because I have a boon from punching

Rose
but if the dog is hellfire, wouldn't the heven fire hurt it

Drumun
its a conspiracy!

H. Knight
and it cancels out the bane

R�senfeld
it's flames
it can't hurt it
sorry guys
it specifies flames

Drumun
its okay

Drufle (GM)
I would argue that previously, it wouldn't work, because his fire damage was from the New God, AKA hell lord man.

Rose
holy fire should

Drumun
we'll keep punching it
his damage isn't from the New God anymore though
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 16
Damage 18

Drufle (GM)
With Ruse's newfound self-faith, it should work.

H. Knight
sigh

Drufle (GM)
Also, miss.
very resilient dog.
Dog turn!

Drumun
self-faith nuclear power would be nice

Drufle (GM)
Gonna munch up Drumun for a bit.

R�senfeld
is it dog turn

Rose flashes at the dog

Drufle (GM)
All 4 of you went, right?

Drumun
I missed, but yes

R�senfeld
ok

H. Knight
we all missed

R�senfeld
i just wasn't sure where the turn changed

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 16 )+5+( 1 + 5 + 3 ) = 26

R�senfeld
since when is abig fire dog such a dodgy bastard

Drumun
damnit

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6+2+2d6( 3 + 1 + 6 + 4 )+2+( 2 + 5 ) = 23
23 damage to Drumun.

H. Knight
oof

Drumun stands defiant, though bleeding

Drufle (GM)
Top of the round then!

Rose
Fast

H. Knight
I wish combat expertise let me atack the same guy twice

Drumun
I'm actually going to heal myself

R�senfeld
hmmmmmmm

Drufle (GM)
Also I should note the 2d6 only happens if you do damage, not just when you swing at it.

R�senfeld
so i don't have a bolt loaded anymore right

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

R�senfeld
fuck
i'm gonna go slow
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 14
Damage 19

R�senfeld
no wait
fast
i have an idea

Rose
argh

H. Knight
can rose reroll these
she has hit all of once
this entire fight

Drumun
I'll keep my Qi for now and use Catch Your Breath

Drufle (GM)
This is kind of ridiculous, but no, I'm calling this payback for the seventy million crits she's gotten in the past.

Drumun
he's something I haven't used since forever

H. Knight
...understandable

Rose
4th wall

Drufle (GM)
Wow, Catch your Breath!

Rose
Ghesh is the broken one

Drufle (GM)
There's something I haven't seen in, like, ever.

H. Knight
ok I have nothing to gain from going slow

Drumun
its been a while

R�senfeld
mhm

Drumun
so I got 15 health back

R�senfeld
so i'll pray for you HK

H. Knight
are there any special grappling maneuvers I can do?
thanks

Drufle (GM)
Uhhh.

H. Knight
like, hold its jaws shut

Drufle (GM)
There's just the Juggernaut thing, but that only works on creatures smaller than you.
Oh, no.

Drumun
there is the fabled "punch dog in face" technique

Drufle (GM)
That'd be a bit OP.

R�senfeld
ho wait
oh*

Rose
hoof kick the dog

R�senfeld
is reloading a full action?

Drumun
break its snout

R�senfeld
it is isn't it

Drufle (GM)
Just an action, I think.
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 27
Damage 24

R�senfeld
mkay, yeah still going fast then
after HK

H. Knight kicks the mutt in the jaw

Rose
crunch

Drufle (GM)
Roll another d6.

H. Knight
rolling 1d6( 6 ) = 6

Drufle (GM)
rolling 2d6( 6 + 3 ) = 9

R�senfeld
unfortunately you don't get a 1d6 from prayer if you don't use a weapon

Drufle (GM)
And there's your 4 damage.

H. Knight
ok

Drumun
hooves are weapons

H. Knight
right!

Drufle (GM)
Right, it's finally down to half health.

H. Knight
question

Drumun
unarmed strikes are always considered weapons

R�senfeld
they are? then what's the point of that distinction

H. Knight
I'm at half health
does my carapace break now or after I go over 31?

Drufle (GM)
The term "weapon" generally just signifies physical attacks.

Drumun
for the sake of our classes

R�senfeld
ok

Drumun
Me and HK would be SUBSTANTIALLY worse if Unarmed Strikes were not weapons as well

Drufle (GM)
Your carapace breaks once you drop below half health.

H. Knight
okay

Drufle (GM)
So that's everyone gone, right?

R�senfeld
not me

Drumun
I think so?
oh wait
rolling 1d6 ( 3 ) = 3

H. Knight 's armor is hanging on by threads

Drumun
I forgot this

Drufle (GM)
I thought you were reloading?

R�senfeld
no
i'm gonna use a ma to switch to staff and cast revelations on myself

Rose
FAST

Drufle (GM)
Gotcha.

R�senfeld
and that'll be my fast turn

Drufle (GM)
Let the dog go!

Drumun
the dog does not deserve it!

Drufle (GM)
Gonna munch HK again.

Drumun
it is a very bad dog

Drufle (GM)
Not even bothering with the to-hit roll.

Drumun
hey now
that's rude

Drufle (GM)
Alright, alright.

Drumun
you have to roll

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 1 )+5+( 4 + 4 + 6 ) = 12
Oh wow.

Drumun
this is why
not quite but still

Drufle (GM)
1's aren't automatic misses, luckily.

H. Knight
still a hit, sadly

Drumun
unfortunately

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, just barely, wow.

R�senfeld
see if he had gotten a 4 highest boon there

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6-4d6+2+2d6( 4 + 5 + 4 + 4 )-( 4 + 3 + 1 + 5 )+2+( 4 + 4 ) = 14

R�senfeld
that would've been a miss

Drufle (GM)
7 damage.

Drumun
The dog is off his game

R�senfeld
that's why you have to roll if it's not above 100%

H. Knight 's ablative carapace ablates its last

H. Knight
:(

Drufle (GM)
Alright, now it's fast turns for the folks.

Drumun
we back to top?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 22
Damage 29

Drumun
rolling 1d6( 4 ) = 4

H. Knight
FINALLY

Drufle (GM)
Holy shit she hit!

Rose
at fucking last

Drumun
she did it

Drufle (GM)
And an EO!
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery)
Attack 29
Damage 15

R�senfeld
can i do the thing where I ta to move a tile?
ah wait that won't help

Drumun
someone tally how much damage was thrown around that entire fight

Drufle (GM)
Yes, Ruse.

R�senfeld
i got slow
go*

Rose
another?

Drufle (GM)
No.

Drumun
cause holy shit there were a lot of numbers

Drufle (GM)
You can only EO once in a round, that'd be ridiculous.

H. Knight
aww I'd like if she got the old Continuous Action

Drufle (GM)
:P
Drumun, take a swing?

Rose
that's what i was praying for

Drumun clenches his fist and performs a rising uppercut!

R�senfeld
i'll pray for HK he does more damage generally
Drumun:
Qi Strike!
Attack 11
Damage 24
the dog dodges though

Drufle (GM)
Yikes.

Drumun
of fucking course
I refocus qi

Drufle (GM)
Nimbly moves out of the way of that sweet uppercut.
HK?

H. Knight
reddy

R�senfeld
have a prayer
:)

Drumun slams back onto the ground, dissapointed with is failure

H. Knight
can I 5-foot back after or is that a slow action?

Drufle (GM)
It's a t-action.

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
You can do that whenever you want, once a turn.

H. Knight
ok
oh hang on
iirc these barghests have an ability like roses?
they can pursue you whenever?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
right so I'm fucked anyway

Drumun
huh

H. Knight
I'll stay here and die like a man

Drufle (GM)
You literally cannot run away.

Drumun
how much health do you have left, HK?

Drufle (GM)
It has 14 speed and can sense you up to a mile away.

Drumun
Drumun is the only one here that can run faster than it

H. Knight
I mean like, move away so it aggros on someone else
callous I know but I don't wanna go to hell

Drumun
it'll probably be after Drumun with more hellfire
I think it can use it again

Drufle (GM)
Next round.

H. Knight
I'm on 38/62

Drumun
okay

Drufle (GM)
Do whatever you like, HK.
H. Knight:
THROW/PUNCH/KICK
Attack 9
Damage 22
nop

Drufle (GM)
Wow.

R�senfeld
jeeez....

Drufle (GM)
This is a truly unprecedented number of 1's.

Drumun
how badly does the dog look?

Drufle (GM)
Also technically you aren't out of his reach because he's size 2, but he's gonna munch Drumun anyway.

Drumun
how many more punches are we going to have to land?

Drufle (GM)
Uh, he is at exactly 1/3 health.

Drumun
okay

H. Knight
nice

R�senfeld
oh then I can kill him in one hit
if you don't

Drufle (GM)
So, Drumun munch time.

Rose
my arrows helped

H. Knight
they so very did

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+5+3d6k1( 4 )+5+( 1 + 6 + 3 ) = 15
Wow, a miss!

R�senfeld
rip

H. Knight
yay!!!

R�senfeld
dodge tank

Drumun palms the dog in the nose

Drumun
"No! Bad Dog"

Drufle (GM)
I think that's the first time either of the monsters have missed this entire fight.

H. Knight
yah

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, Ruse!

R�senfeld
i move here

Drumun
uhhh

R�senfeld
trust me
gonna try to divinte smite the dog
suing FIre From Heaven

Drufle (GM)
Oh dear.

R�senfeld
don't take ffire damage? how about 10d6?!
AHAHAHAHAHA

Drumun
should I...step back or?

Drufle (GM)
Nah.
He can't hit you with this.

R�senfeld
4 revelations so I et.. 8 boons? plus 1 from prayer?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
I saw that shuffle, Rose

Drumun
all in
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 19
FUCKING DIE

Drumun
its good

R�senfeld
MWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAA

H. Knight
YAHH

Drufle (GM)
That would be a hit yeah.

R�senfeld
"Sit!

Drufle (GM)
So, uh, 12d6+1?

R�senfeld
I thin so

Drumun
I am in utter shock

R�senfeld
it's the staff

Drufle (GM)
Oh, +2.

R�senfeld
maybe 1d6 less?

Drufle (GM)
Sorry.

R�senfeld
+2 yeah

Drufle (GM)
No, 10d6 from smite, 1d6 from prayer?
1d6 from staff.

R�senfeld
i prayed for HK

Drufle (GM)
Ah.

R�senfeld
i don't get the 1d6

Drufle (GM)
So 11d6+2.

Drumun
I mean

R�senfeld
rolling 11d6+2( 5 + 4 + 5 + 4 + 4 + 6 + 6 + 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 )+2 = 45

Drumun
its 11 dice

R�senfeld
BOOOOOOOMO

H. Knight
AHHHH

Rose
wow

Drumun
I think we're at the point where 1 die doesn't matter anymore

Drufle (GM)
Still halved, but man.
That was a hell of a hit.

Drumun
that is an Explosive hit

R�senfeld
is that enough?

H. Knight
nah

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

R�senfeld
shit

Drumun
its fine

R�senfeld
oh well, it was #Worth

Drufle (GM)
He's got a bit more juice in him.

H. Knight
can I go next

Drufle (GM)
Good above average damage, though.

Drumun
hey HK

Rose
ive got more arrows

H. Knight
yeah?

R�senfeld
I take fire damage from that right?

Drufle (GM)
And sure, it's top of the round.

Drumun
try a shoving attack

Drufle (GM)
rolling 2d6( 3 + 4 ) = 7

Drumun
knock it down

Drufle (GM)
There's your 7 damage.
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery, dirty tricks)
Attack 25
Damage 22

H. Knight
it's got four legs man

R�senfeld
aaand we're done

H. Knight
EO that shit Rose
Rose:
Enchanted Longbow (marked, trickery)
Attack 25
Damage 24

H. Knight
OOF

Drufle (GM)
Good grief.

Rose
there we go

H. Knight
theres the luck

Drumun
nice

R�senfeld
"Stay!"

Drufle (GM)
Cool, so, uh.

Rose
"SIT"

H. Knight
whoever slayed it dies

Drufle (GM)
I need all of you to make an AGI save with 2 banes.

R�senfeld
i already told it to sit :P
oh god
it explods?!
c'mon :/
Drumun:
Agility Challenge
Roll -1

Rose

Drumun
hmmm
QI EVASION
R�senfeld:
Agility Challenge
Roll 12
H. Knight:
Agility Challenge
Roll 1
hahahahahahahaahahahahah

Drumun
I expend my Qi to dodge the whatever

R�senfeld
it explodes, clearly
Rose:
Agility Challenge
Roll 0

R�senfeld
goddamn fire dog

Drumun
basically I automatically succeed the save

H. Knight
flash step outta there

Drufle (GM)
So just HK fails.

H. Knight
oh!
guess I'm dead
' 3'

Drumun
the one person who really could not afford to fail

Drufle (GM)
rolling 5d6+10( 1 + 1 + 6 + 3 + 5 )+10 = 26

R�senfeld
you're not dead

Drumun
goooood damn

Drufle (GM)
He takes 26 damage, and the rest of you take 13.

R�senfeld
you just go int othat dying state
and then I total heal you

H. Knight
ooh

R�senfeld
when we leave the fight

H. Knight
no I do not

R�senfeld
how damaged are you?

H. Knight
Druf said I cannot afford to die while cursed

Drumun
1) cannot be healed
2) yeah cursed

Drufle (GM)
Luckily for you, the curse ends when the barghest dies.

Drumun
okay!

R�senfeld
wait so I can heal?!

Drufle (GM)
The blast is really just to spite you.

Rose
phew

H. Knight
is that blast halved?

Drumun
"That is one angry dog"

Rose
what because i got my dice back

H. Knight
for me

Drufle (GM)
It's not weapon damage, so I don't think so.

Drumun
"That felt like the longest fight we've ever had"

H. Knight
alright I'm dying

Drufle (GM)
Juggernaut only halves weapon damage.

H. Knight
64/62

R�senfeld
the heal thing is also cut when the dog dies?

Drumun
OH SHIT

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
ok
take a total heal
bim bam boo
your'e all fine

H. Knight begins to fall apart

Drumun
do we have to wind the key again?

Drufle (GM)
So one sec while I try and remember how dying even works.
It
It's been so long.

H. Knight
"I'm. SOrrY..."

Drufle (GM)
HK, roll a d20+4.

Drumun
also does it matter when we have a total heal?
oh shit
not a d20

H. Knight
rolling 1d20+4( 11 )+4 = 15

Drufle (GM)
Now a d6.

H. Knight
rolling 1d6( 6 ) = 6

Drumun
don't you dare die

R�senfeld
he's fine

Drufle (GM)
Alright nevermind you just heal your rate.

H. Knight
DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM ONLINE

Drufle (GM)
If you had rolled below a 10, or anything but a 6, you would've had some nasty scars and injuries.
But turns out that fire missed most of your important parts.

Drumun
I assume he's just...unconscious now?

Rose
we can polish metal though

R�senfeld
well, some of us can

Drufle (GM)
Well he would be, but then Ruse just total-heals him.

H. Knight shudders as he boots back up

Drufle (GM)
So he's fine.

Drumun
no key winding?

Drufle (GM)
I mean yes.

R�senfeld
i can also wind him up while i'm at it :P

Drufle (GM)
But that's just an atction.

H. Knight
"That Was Close..."

R�senfeld
we're out of combat, I can do what I want

Rose
is he wearing any armour?

Drufle (GM)
Not particularly difficult.

H. Knight
"Thank You, Russ"

Drumun climbs up onto HK to rewind his key

Drufle (GM)
He literally is armor.

Rose
that isn't metal

H. Knight
o
no

Drufle (GM)
No I think he's entirely metal.

R�senfeld
lemme vit burst us too

H. Knight
48/62

Drufle (GM)
Right, so, that was a proper diff 500 battle there.

H. Knight
oh wait
total heal

Drumun
total heal

H. Knight
russ used full restore

R�senfeld
hahaha

Drumun
so THIS is what SotDL is supposed to feel like

Rose takes her top off and uses it to protect her arms as she hugs HK

R�senfeld
it wasn't that hard, we were just really unlucky

H. Knight appreciates the hug

Drufle (GM)
Clearly I just need more attacks that target AGI and not DEF.

Drumun
I don't think I've felt this way since fighting the possessed inquisitor

R�senfeld
you know how much damage I would've done befor with my avatar?

Rose puts her top back on

R�senfeld
probably twice what I ujst did with my suicide hit

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, that hole in the floor fades away once the barghest dies.

H. Knight
"I Think We Need To Regroup."

R�senfeld
"Drumun, come over here"

H. Knight gets on the wireless to Yvonne

Drumun
"Ah think we could use a rest"

R�senfeld
i'll expend both casts of my vit burst
heal twice your rate

Drufle (GM)
Well, with Ruse's sense enemies power that we conveniently forgot, he can tell that there's nothing else dangerous in the building.

H. Knight
oh!

Rose
healed

H. Knight
so we can proceed?

R�senfeld
just a note

Drumun
I'm still boar so
rolling 1d6 ( 2 ) = 2

R�senfeld
that ability is a TA

Drufle (GM)
The heart is literally in the next room, so yes.

R�senfeld
iirc

H. Knight
ok

R�senfeld
so i do have to actually use it

Rose
ill go ahead this time

R�senfeld
but assume I did :P

Drumun
I'm going to be doing that every 6 seconds

R�senfeld
well also heal twice your rate
Rose:
Agility Challenge
Roll 0

R�senfeld
that's like 30 hp

Drumun
oh I'm fully healed

Rose
invisible

H. Knight
super stealth go

Drumun
its fine then
I'm staying in boar form though

Drufle (GM)
And for those wondering, if you go below 0 hp while under the hellfire curse, you immediately die and your soul goes to Hell, regardless of corruption level.

Drumun
and I'm focusing my qi

H. Knight
yah that's what I thought

R�senfeld
"Let's go get the heart and then get a proper rest. I'm fairly spent."
oh jeez that sounds awful
what do you do in hell?

Drumun
the dog dying prevented that though right?

R�senfeld
spoilers?

H. Knight
get tortured

Rose
rolling 1d20( 2 ) = 2

R�senfeld
no, i mean like

Drufle (GM)
You probably don't stay there very long, considering you have no corruption to flense.

R�senfeld
why is that significant

H. Knight
yeah it was nice of the GM to rule that the curse ended

R�senfeld
this gam have reincarnation?
I forget
Drumun:
Perception Challenge
Roll 13

Drufle (GM)
So the three of you that aren't Rose remember where the heart is; it's on that wall to the east there.
It does, yes, Ruse.
That's a pretty major point of the soul cycle actually.

H. Knight grabs the gem

Drumun
"Ah'm glad this is over with"

Drufle (GM)
It still sits on a small necklace on the corpse's chest.

R�senfeld
"how do we put them together?"

Drufle (GM)
It rings with a pleasant energy, and you can somewhat feel it resonating with your belt.

Drumun watches the corpse intently

Drufle (GM)
Well, I believe either Yvonne or Thicket has the orb, I forget.

Drumun
Thicket

R�senfeld
"That thing isn't getting up anytime soon, Drumun."

Drumun
unless Yvonne took it
"We jus fought a ghost"

R�senfeld
"Trust me."

Drumun
"That ain't supposed ta get up either"

Drufle (GM)
I think it would've made slightly more sense for Yvonne to bring it with her.
For a number of reasons.

H. Knight
"I Am Concerned"

Drumun
alright, she can have it
if she asked nicely

H. Knight
"There Was A Hellhound Placed Here To Thwart People Taking The Heart."

Drufle (GM)
Yvonne always asks nicely.

Drumun
then she has the moonpearl

R�senfeld
"The hellhound wasn't here before."

H. Knight
"Why Did Its Master Not Simply Take The Gem Themselves?"

R�senfeld
"This is a new development."

Drufle (GM)
You guys can make an INT check with 2 banes if you'd like.

H. Knight
ok
Drumun:
Intellect Challenge
Roll 4
H. Knight:
Intellect Challenge
Roll 2
R�senfeld:
Intellect Challenge
Roll 2

Drumun
thinking is hard

Drufle (GM)
Amazing.

H. Knight
oh well
R�senfeld:
Intellect Challenge
Roll 19
fuck that shit

Drumun
Rose?

R�senfeld
i try again

Drumun
uhhh?

Drufle (GM)
Let's see if Rose can figure it out.

Drumun
what?
I don't think you can do that russ

Rose
yes

R�senfeld
but the dice suck so much

Drufle (GM)
They are doing something awful aren't they.

Drumun
we don't really have a choice

Drufle (GM)
I can't wait to put this session in the tracker and just see the line drop like a rock.

Drumun
its going to go dooooown
Rose:
Intellect Challenge
Roll 0

Drumun
hmmm

Drufle (GM)
Whelp.

H. Knight
nope

Rose
nope

H. Knight
oh well

Drufle (GM)
The mystery evades you.......

Drumun shrugs and begins leaving

R�senfeld
my second roll with 2 banes was a 19
just to spite me

Drufle (GM)
Although Ruse apparently figures it out later.

H. Knight
I'm sure it'll smack us in the face next sesh

Drumun
"We should git out of here"
how much later?

H. Knight
"Absolutely"

Drufle (GM)
Probably on the boat back.

H. Knight
Too Later later
*Late

Drufle (GM)
You hear Yvonne yelling something from the entrance.

H. Knight picks up the remains of his armor

H. Knight
oh?
she dying

Drumun rushes over

Drumun
16 speed boooy

Yvonne Lariel
"Guys, the flood's getting pretty close! I can see it on the horizon now!"

Rose
whats that

H. Knight
wow

Drumun
"No rest for us then, it seems"
"That was rather quick though"

R�senfeld
"We're done here, anyway."

H. Knight
oh that's a construct we had to fight on our first time down here, rose
don't worry about it

Yvonne Lariel
"It's the strangest thing, I think it knows where we are..."

R�senfeld
"Oh it does. There waas a guard here that wasn't here before."

Drumun
"Well we jus fought a hellhound and a ghost"

R�senfeld
"whatever agency this is, the New God or whatever, it's reacting to us

Drumun
"We need ta move"

Drufle (GM)
And when HK comes within close range of Yvonne, a bright glow suddenly envelops you.

R�senfeld
"so yeah, time to go"

H. Knight
hm?

Drumun
uh oh

R�senfeld
uh
crap?

Drumun
TRANSFORMERS!!?

Rose
fuck

Drumun
did we end up in an anime?
Magical girl HK?

H. Knight
is this the sunchips place

Drufle (GM)
The Maiden's Tear suddenly rips itself out of her bag, and the King's Band and Yew's Heart tear themselves from HK.

H. Knight
hey that's my belt

Rose
ouch

Drumun
welp

R�senfeld
do HK's horse trousers fall off?

Rose
lmao

H. Knight
_I never even used the King's Slam_

Drufle (GM)
They whirl around each other, glowing brighter and brighter with a warm green light, until a bright flash causes them you all to look away.

H. Knight shields people

Drumun
Yer not in the position to really do that

R�senfeld looks awaay

Drufle (GM)
And when you look back, a small green orb is floating in mid-air, pulsing with an immaculate energy.

Drumun covers his boar eyes

Rose gets excited

H. Knight 's optics reflect the shiny orb

R�senfeld
what was the guy's name again

H. Knight
it's a Sphere

Drumun
"Mister Yew himself, kinda"

R�senfeld
Yew something

Yvonne Lariel is staring at the orb with wide eyes, reaching out for the magic object.

Rose wants it to

H. Knight
and the GM PC becomes the main character

Drumun
"Ah really hope its as great as tha book says"

H. Knight
we all saw it coming
and we did nothing to stop it

Yvonne Lariel grabs it from the air and holds it, the energy pulsing through her and around the area surrounding you.

Drumun walks up

Drumun
"How ye feel?"

Yvonne Lariel
"This is beautiful... I feel amazing!"
"Here, try it out!"

Yvonne Lariel holds it out for Drumun.

Drumun
"Eh?"

Drumun picks up up

Drumun
*it up

Drufle (GM)
You feel a comfortable surge of power rush through you, the green glow surging through the air around you.

Rose wants it

Drumun
"Well how about that..."

Drumun passes it over to Russ

H. Knight
yeah I wannna see what it fdoes to rose

R�senfeld instinctively backs away a bit

Drumun
"It ain't demonic, ya goof"

Drufle (GM)
It actually doesn't seem to act different at all, regardless of which one of you touches it.

H. Knight
oh ok

R�senfeld
"Yeah.."

R�senfeld tentatively picks it up

Drumun
tfw the phantom haunting Russ was Yew all along

Drufle (GM)
You do feel your restless spirit calm down, seemingly at ease with the power.

R�senfeld
oh my god

Drufle (GM)
Oh, no.

R�senfeld
that would've been insane

Drufle (GM)
That'd be a hilarious twist but that is unfortunately not the case.

Drumun
dang
worth a shot
I mean there's still time

H. Knight
you'd have to plan that from the beginnin

R�senfeld
nah you can't just on a whim do that

Drufle (GM)
I have a slightly better twist for him.

R�senfeld
it's gotta be planned

Rose reaches out for it

H. Knight
ok!

Drumun
oh noooo

R�senfeld hands it over

Drumun
pass it to HK
aw

H. Knight
don't be mean!

Drumun
:P

H. Knight
I'm fine

Yvonne Lariel is still so completely transfixed by the absurdly powerful magical relic.

H. Knight
I've seen its effect so I am content

Rose cradles it like a baby

H. Knight
"Are You Alright, Miss Lariel?"

R�senfeld
"I have never sense this much quiet from within me, in oh... over two decades.

Drumun
"Well lets not let it git to our heads"

Yvonne Lariel
"Yeah, I just don't think I've ever seen something so powerful, and yet... comfortable."

Yvonne Lariel shakes her head and her eyes go wide.

Yvonne Lariel
"Oh right, the flood!"

Drumun
"Aye, lets git goin"

Yvonne Lariel
"Quickly, back to the boat!"

H. Knight
"I Do Not Deserve Comfort Until This Is Over. Now Move!"

Drumun
"To the Sunset Song!"

R�senfeld
"Ah. I thought I was fforgetting something. To the boat-mobile!"

Drumun rushes out

Drumun
BOAR SPEED, ACTIVATE

R�senfeld
eh?

Rose goes to the boat with her baby globe

R�senfeld
boatmobile?

H. Knight noclips through to the fight room

R�senfeld
it's a great pun

Drumun returns to normal while on the boat, grabbing a new shirt

Yvonne Lariel
And you all go out to the Sunset Song, and how do you prepare for the approaching flood?

Drufle (GM)
Er, as me.

Drumun
ONWARD

Drufle (GM)
Do you drive directly into it?

H. Knight
retract the wheels
and yes ride the lightning

Drumun
We must return to the main fleet

R�senfeld
"That was some very odd speech coming from you, Yvonne :|" "

Drumun
also we definitely do not want this hitting us on the side

Yvonne Lariel
"I know, but it's so pretty! Didn't you feel it yourself!"

Drumun
or while we're still

Rose
use the boat to surf the tide before turning around

R�senfeld
"I felt something. Anyway we should probably brace and cross the event horizon."

H. Knight
yeah you gotta face the waves

Drumun
"Hold on everyone, we're about ta git hit"

R�senfeld
"If we run we're gonna get overswept."

H. Knight braces for impact

Rose cradles orb and braces

Drufle (GM)
Well, strangely enough, when the ocean tide comes close to you, it simply goes through the boat.

Drumun
wut?

H. Knight
eh?

Drumun
goes through?

H. Knight
ghost tide?

Drumun
"What in the world?"

H. Knight
"Is This The Work Of The Stone?"

Drufle (GM)
The green orb is glowing furiously, and despite the water covering your entire body, you feel fine, as if the water was naught but air.

R�senfeld looks at Yew's orb

Drumun
"Uhhh"

R�senfeld
"This is some seriously strong magic."

Drumun
"Well"

Rose protects it

R�senfeld
"And it feels like nothing.'

H. Knight
"It's As If The Ocean Were Naught But A Figment"

Yvonne Lariel
"We're safe from the tides..."

R�senfeld
"What the hell did Yew discover that can resist the power of the ancients like this?"

Drumun
"Ah can't say ah ever sailed under the sea before"

Rose
so should we drive to the portals opening?

H. Knight
"We Must At Once Head For The Breach!"

Yvonne Lariel
"We can do it now! We can go to the Salt Sea and fight!"

H. Knight
yeah

R�senfeld
we still need to find the opener

Drumun
"Aye, full speed ahead"
"Next stop, savin tha world"

H. Knight
oh they'll be there

R�senfeld
which means we're gonna go into the other side

Drumun points forward dramatically

R�senfeld
you guys ready to go into an alien dimension?

H. Knight
no, but whoever is?

Drumun
Drumun was born ready

Rose now wants to give the orb to someone bigger

Drumun
or at least he'll try to be

H. Knight furiously pulls scrap together to build a new carapace

Drumun
hrmmm
without access to Thicket we can't get the stronger arrows

Drufle (GM)
Yvonne will gladly hold onto Yew's Force if you want her to.

Drumun
once we hit level 10

Rose
ok

Drufle (GM)
If you guys just want to not worry about who's carrying it.

H. Knight
yeah

Rose
and i have 10 of each but only 8 healing ones

Drufle (GM)
Also, if the music wasn't a hint, you are in fact level 10 now.

Drumun
wait wut

Rose
YAY

R�senfeld
Woooooooo
LEVEL 10 MUTHAFUCKAAAAS

H. Knight
when did we go to 9?!

R�senfeld
last time

Drufle (GM)
Uh, last session?

H. Knight
i don't rememebr

Drufle (GM)
You got your juggernaut power, remember?

H. Knight
right yes

R�senfeld
that was at the magic tower

Drufle (GM)
Most of the level 10 adventure will take place in the Dreamlands.

H. Knight
ohhh

Drumun
well then

H. Knight
not helll then

Drumun
I did not expect this

R�senfeld
dude
you do NOT want to go to hell ll
ll*

Drumun
I once again forgot to update my level counter

R�senfeld
lol

Drumun
again

Drufle (GM)
Right, so, what are we getting at level 10...

Rose
well that was a hard battle

Drufle (GM)
I'll go and check everyone's stuff.

R�senfeld
it's just paladin levelling now right?

H. Knight
Hell II: Roytronic boogaloo

Drufle (GM)
No, your master path.
HK gets the level 10 defender powers...
+6 health.

H. Knight
oh joy like they've helped

Drufle (GM)
And Containing/Retributive Strike.

R�senfeld
oh right
healer

Rose
more sharp shooter stuff

Drufle (GM)
Containing strike lets you, once per round when you hit someone with a melee attack, stop them from moving for the round.

H. Knight
finally

Drufle (GM)
And Retributive attack lets you use a t-action to attack anyone within range of you that attacks someone other than you.

H. Knight
YES

Drufle (GM)
Healer is +4 health.
You get a free spell, which turns out that it actually doesn't have to be from the Life tradition.
Only the level 7 spell had to be.
And you get Empowered Healing/Unassailable Vitality.

R�senfeld
Empowered Healing is nice

Drumun
brb for a second

R�senfeld
unassailable vitality is good but we decided to heal on rests anyway

Drufle (GM)
Oh good, youre reading it yourself.
Sharpshooter, let's see...
+4 health, and the most absurd power in all of SotDL.

H. Knight
wha

Drufle (GM)
Perfect Shot.

Rose
yes, cannot miss

Drufle (GM)
Whenever she makes a ranged attack and misses, she can just spend her t-action to just hit anyway.

H. Knight
that's amazing

Drufle (GM)
It's absolutely fuckin' ridiculous.

Rose
at last

Drufle (GM)
So unless she wants to leave her t-actions for rogue stuff, she can literally never miss with her bow now.
Death is an inevitability.

R�senfeld
celestial is so underwhelming

Drufle (GM)
It's so bad, isn't it.

R�senfeld
its awful

Rose
i needed that this game

H. Knight
consider this the game making up for what it has to cope with now

Drufle (GM)
You could just take resurrection for Life 5, but I'm not entirely convinced you'll get much of a chance to use it.

Rose
lol

H. Knight
Druf, I nearly died for real

Drumun
okay I'm back

H. Knight
ME

Drufle (GM)
True.

R�senfeld
oh i can learn divine aid

Drufle (GM)
Clearly I just need more Barghests.

H. Knight
just the one

Drufle (GM)
Drumun you just get +5 health and two more martial talents.

R�senfeld
or...

Drufle (GM)
Go check those out.

R�senfeld
yeah resurrection

Drumun
a hard choice

R�senfeld
i mean

Drumun
well obviously Killing Palm is one of them

R�senfeld
do we assume that I'm gonna have to res someone eventually

Drufle (GM)
It wouldn't hurt, honestly.

Drumun
actually wait, living creatures

R�senfeld
or do I go with something that can give ALL of us +15HP for the fight?

Drumun
what counts as a living creature?

Rose
maybe you could resurrect an army of undead
not HK

R�senfeld
i dont thin Resurrect wokrs like that
my death priest could i think

Drufle (GM)
I need to look up what counts as a living creature.

R�senfeld
cuz he can use Death spells

Rose
rolling 50/450/4 = 12.5

Drufle (GM)
Well butts, it's never specified.

R�senfeld
does Death have ombies?

Drumun
god damn it

Drufle (GM)
I'm going to say living creatures are just non-undead.

R�senfeld
zombies*

Drufle (GM)
Necromancy is zombies, Ruse.
Not Death.
So things like devils count as living.

Drumun
so I'm probably not going to get to use Killing Palm much
other than Devils

R�senfeld
nope.. no zombies

Drumun
Roy is undead though
so I can't use it in her

Drufle (GM)
She sure is.

R�senfeld
we can burn roy with divine fire

Drumun
I'll grab Killing Palm at least

Drufle (GM)
So yeah, if your luck continues like this to next session, we'll definitely have two more.

R�senfeld
i'm gonna take res

Rose
we may be facing a few soon though

Drufle (GM)
Oh right, that thing Ruse was going to figure out.

R�senfeld
oh yes
i nearly forgot lol thanks

Drufle (GM)
Barghests are basically the bounty hunters of hell, they go out to retrieve escaped souls.

Rose
our luck cannot be as bad now. i cannot miss

R�senfeld
wait

Drufle (GM)
The specter was hiding in the catacombs and only revealed itself to attack you guys.

R�senfeld
ohh
ok

Drufle (GM)
Once it did the Barghest was able to find it, so it appeared, and due to being a devil and thus a complete jackass, had no problem with taking you guys as well.

H. Knight
oh so it was just
a complete coincidence

Drufle (GM)
Sure was!

R�senfeld
that's a cool encounter

Rose
opportune attack

H. Knight
bloody hell

R�senfeld
^ is right
bloody HELL is exactly right

Drufle (GM)
Oh and, I suppose I should mention this at some point, because I imagine it came up at some point in your research.
Roy is a revenant, and revenants can only be killed by killing and beheading them before they regenerate.

H. Knight
can you kill and behead them at the same time?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

Drumun
good to know

H. Knight
good

Drumun
punch her head off
its for her own good

Rose
oh good. my arrows and HKs arms should do that then

Drufle (GM)
I just wanted to make sure you guys knew that.

H. Knight
how specific does it have to be

Drufle (GM)
I mean, you can do aimed attacks for 1 bane.
If you want to make sure the head comes off as you kill her.

H. Knight
okay

Drufle (GM)
And besides it takes like an hour for them to regenerate anyways.

H. Knight
so we don't have to do it with a sword

Drumun
hey, if we're down underwater

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, that's the end of this session, so next time will be the beginning of the end.

Rose
what about my shots going for the throat. wouldn't that behead?

Drumun
I don't need to hide behind this dwarven form

H. Knight
how wide are your arrowheads

Drumun
I can just Be a boar the entire time

Rose
meteor

R�senfeld
they might with divine smite

Drufle (GM)
Oh damn, it occurs to me, there's one other thing I can probably mention.
Now that you guys can just safely cruise around under the red sea.
You see an awful lot of people unconscious down here, but strangely enough they aren't actually dead.

R�senfeld
oh what

H. Knight gazes at the serried ranks of sleeping bodies

Drumun
is it wise to step off the boat to check on them?

Rose
cool. should we rescue a few?

Drufle (GM)
They're all in an incredibly deep sleep.
There's nothing you can do to wake them at this point.

Rose
sail next to them and lasso them

Drumun
would the power of Yew awaken them?

H. Knight
"Now This is Unusual"

Drufle (GM)
Not enough, no.

H. Knight
oof

Drumun
hmmm

Drufle (GM)
It will keep you safe if you want to go check on them.

Drumun
very well then

Drufle (GM)
This is also why I was very adamant about Rose not going for a swim.

Rose
onwards then

Drumun
we should at least investigate

Rose
lol

Drumun
roll up the boat and check

H. Knight
sandman water

Rose
i nearly did anyway lol

Drufle (GM)
If she got any of the "water" in her lungs she would immediately be knocked out and fall to the ocean floor.

H. Knight
Drumun be careful
vehicle check

Drumun
I am Boar Form

H. Knight
don't run over anybody

Drumun
oh right
yeah I'll try to avoid people

Rose
ill go up front and call the steering

Drumun
or boar hybrid form technically

Drufle (GM)
This isn't actually something I'm going to try and RP, this is just an off-side mention.

H. Knight
yeah we figure

Drumun
too late

H. Knight
it's nice tho

Drumun
you brought it up

Drufle (GM)
This session is now done so I can go eat lunch.

Drumun
okay...
see ya'll later

H. Knight
also I guess this is why you let the boat have wheels

Drufle (GM)
Yep.

Drumun
thanks

H. Knight
so we wouldn't have to walk

Drumun
for the wheels

Rose
lol

Drufle (GM)
Alright, I'm heading out.

H. Knight
byeee

Drumun
we're Mad Max, but underblood now
see yaaaa
