Drufle (GM)	Does anyone remember what session we're on? I think it's 7.
Drumun	uhhh
Roy	lucky
Drufle (GM)	I should really keep better track of this.
Drumun	maybe?
Drufle (GM)	It's 7, yes. Because I called last one 6.5 So welcome to session 7 then. We start in a view over Caecras, the city still trying to pull itself back together.
Drumun	tha orcs hit it pretty hard
Drufle (GM)	People are running and selling and bustling around in relative normalcy.
Moppy	it's been hit so hard there's nothing left just the void
R�senfeld	(lol)
Drufle (GM)	In the sky, a vague red color can be seen, the moon showing its terror even in midday.
Roy	i just read the post on the threeums i had no idea lol so thats what happened
Drumun	fear the moon
Wari	should we buy moth repellant
Drufle (GM)	We zoom in past the Grand Cathedral, through the Merchant's Quarter, and near the wall of the city we find a large brick of a building, soaring 3 stories high with a large flag flapping on the front. A sign with a four-pointed star on the front door says "Caecras Heroes Guild- Apply Within." We enter the hall, and see a large group of people milling around inside.
Drumun	ye gods why am ah with Wari I dunno how that's gonna go
Drufle (GM)	An array of weapons, armor, notices, and banners hang haphazardly around the main hall.
Wari	get away from me
Drufle (GM)	Well, you know, Dwarf and Dwarf.
Roy	im in the corner, reading books
R�senfeld	dat stache
Wari	that green one must be Hora's Nymph, then?
Drumun	Dryad
Drufle (GM)	People of the strangest ilk walk in and out of the hall, entering libraries and training halls and other rooms of use.
R�senfeld	hey this guild has no altar
Drumun	its in the cathedral, Russ
Drufle (GM)	There's a chapel in the west wing.
R�senfeld	that's acceptable
Drufle (GM)	This is simply the entrance hall.
Drumun	I feel like this picture came from somewhere
Drufle (GM)	A large orange ape trails around with a number of machines on his back; a skittish halfling wanders around, toying with some gadget in his hands; an old clockwork humanoid clicks and clacks his way through the hall, looking for some oil.
R�senfeld	oh look it's the Librarian and he's learned to be a mechanic, good for him
Drumun	I recognize this lot
Wari	he'd have your head for that no relation to existing persons or likenesses thereof
Drumun	ye can't have someone's head fer everythin
Drufle (GM)	Full of all sorts, and despite being fairly forgotten by the populace at large, the CHG is still a popular location for up-and-coming heroes to visit.
Drumun	we exist, huzzah
Roy	Popularity....
Drufle (GM)	It's a quiet midday, about 3 months after the Orcish Insurrection. Drumun is sitting down with a glass of wine in his hand
Drufle (GM)	Few formal quests have come by in the past week; while the beastmen have been forming in larger and larger groups, the city itself has had little need of professional heroes. Wari checks the Quest Board for the sixteenth time this morning
Drufle (GM)	Ok, I'm glad you guys thought that was a quest board. Or at least one of you.
Drumun	russ is there, we can say he thought that too
R�senfeld	i'm sorry but what else would it be?
Roy	Demon Lords Mystery Dungeon Rose is sorting beastman hides on a side table
R�senfeld	this is a guild hall i'm imagining a sort of like Mystery Dungeon HQ
Drufle (GM)	Something along those lines, yes. Every now and then, the front doors creak open and a breeze from outside whips through the hall, causing the banners to flap in place.
Wari	"By Grimnir, I hate slow days..." Drumun gets up and shuts the door
Drumun	"We ought ta fix this door"
R�senfeld	"It doen't matter what you hate. The Shadow still shows his presence... It will not be quiet for long." R�senfeld has hunted countless small-time demons in the last months
Roy	"Are there any professional hammering heroes visiting?"
Wari	"Damn, I hope so. My Axe arm's fallin' asleep!" R�senfeld scoffs at Wari.
Drumun	"Ye should be grateful fer times of peace" "Ye won't know ya miss them till their gone" R�senfeld sighs Wari mutters something rude
R�senfeld	"The problem, Drumun, is that we are never really at peace while HIs influence is so widespread."
Drumun	"Aye, tis why we should make the most of quiet"
R�senfeld	"Granted, nothing of consequence has happened for a while.."
Drumun	"Think, plan, train"
R�senfeld	so, uh will someone actually read the board?
Drumun	"Ye won't have time fer that when a demon is in yer face"
R�senfeld	just in case
Roy	"Study!"
Drufle (GM)	Your initial roleplaying instincts were correct, there's basically nothing of credible value here right now.
Wari	"Bah! I'm hittin' the gym if there's NOTHING else to do."
Drufle (GM)	A request for some bear hides, someone asking for an escort across town, a request for launching a new boat. Mundane stuff.
Drumun	always bear hides what do people want with bear hides
R�senfeld	they are stylish
Roy	bearserkers love them
R�senfeld	would you prefer they want boar hides? Rose glances at the orangutan hungrily
R�senfeld	huehuehue
Drumun	... please don't eat the sentient ape
R�senfeld	we'll have no one to guide the wizards through L-Space if you do
Drufle (GM)	Outside the front door, you hear someone shouting, although the voice is muffled by wind and wood.
R�senfeld	"Hm?" R�senfeld moves to investigate the noise
Drumun	"An' the peace is over" Drumun follows Russ
Drufle (GM)	The front doors suddenly burst open, and a lady runs through.
Rose	"Whoever's out there, shut up! you're too loud"
R�senfeld	(does lady have pog?)
Yvonne Lariel	"Everyone! Everyone! I have an actual request!" Rose has sensitive ears
Roy	[to Wari] "Hey there! I'm Roy."
Drumun	"What is it, lass?"
R�senfeld	"Well, spit it out, then, woman!"
Wari	[To Roy] "Hey."
Roy	:}
Drufle (GM)	A short woman, the Imperial-assigned secretary for the guild, Yvonne is very tired from running back and forth across the town.
R�senfeld	unfortunately for her, I'm quarrelsome and unfriendly Yvonne Lariel huffs and puffs, trying to catch her breath while wildly flailing a piece of parchment.
R�senfeld	someone else will have to offer her water
Roy	"Looks like something's goin on." "Welcome! to the Chug."
Yvonne Lariel	"Beastmen! Plains! Farmers!"
Drumun	"Beastmen?"
Wari	"Beastmen?!"
R�senfeld	"Beastmen? I thought that was the military's job." Yvonne Lariel coughs a bit and hands the paper to Drumun, who I think is closer? Drumun takes the paper and reads is
R�senfeld	yeah i kind of rushed out of the way when she barged in
Wari	you'd know if she wasn't invisible :v
Drufle (GM)	I couldn't find a suitable picture! Anyway, the note. It's an official Caecran notice, the kind that the CHG gets whenever the city actually wants them involved.
R�senfeld	"...We'll read it, Yvonne, why don't you sit down before you collapse?"
Drumun	"hrmmmmm"
R�senfeld	paladin personality prevails
Drufle (GM)	It's titled "Fomor invasion of local farm; residents presumed dead, beastmen encroaching."
Drumun	"Its an official notice" "Looks like there's a lot more beastmen than usual" Yvonne Lariel coughs and nods, and goes to sit down at the front desk.
Roy	"Fomors" rolling 1d20 + 4 + 0d6k1 ( 14 )+4+() = 18
Wari	"Well that's one hell of a news bulletin."
Drufle (GM)	What's that a check for?
Roy	for fomors
Drumun	that +4 makes me think int
R�senfeld	yeah knowing what the word 'Fomor' means would be good
Drufle (GM)	The Fomor is the least of the beastmen; a cowardly, skittish sort; a man whose upper body has been made that of a goat.
R�senfeld	ugh
Wari	so a reverse satyr
R�senfeld	they always chew your clothes up when you fight them
Drufle (GM)	They're virtually harmless by themselves, but in numbers they can be dangerous. And yeah, basically a reverse satyr.
R�senfeld	really annoying
Roy	"Fomorians are goatmen! They might be encroaching for food?"
Drufle (GM)	The notice lists the location of the farm, and a reward of 50 crowns to whoever routs the beasts.
R�senfeld	50 gc!
Drumun	"Well, they're causin trouble, we ought ta stop em"
R�senfeld	my god "So, -where- are there more beastmen than usual, Drumun?"
Wari	"really not worth my time, but I am bored as hell. May as well get at it"
Drumun	"A farm"
Roy	"Now they're speaking my language."
Drumun	"where's the map" Rose gets up and stretches
Drufle (GM)	A map of Caecras and the surrounding lands lies on the east wall of the hall.
Rose	"augh, I am a little peckish. I'll come too."
R�senfeld	can you guys hear the extra music underneath this one
Drumun	here is map?
Russ	yes
Drufle (GM)	Approximately, yes. Drumun scours the map for our destination
R�senfeld	it's driving me nuts, lol, what is that?
Drufle (GM)	The farm looks to be about a 20 minute walk from the western edge of Caecras; about 30 minutes total from where you are.
R�senfeld	just ambience ? Drumun points to a spot on the map
Drufle (GM)	There's two tracks playing right now, the music and the ambience.
R�senfeld	ah
Drufle (GM)	The ambiance has some light lute music or whatever as well.
R�senfeld	right
Drumun	"Here, off to tha west"
Drufle (GM)	I tried to tone it down a bit so it wouldn't be as loud.
Roy	"A brisk walk."
R�senfeld	you can't really do anything for me drufle, I have absolute pitch it'll bug me unless I can't hear it at all
Roy	"Hello! Tall person! I'm Roy."
R�senfeld	because it's off-scale
Drumun	Roy, ever the charmer
Drufle (GM)	HELLO BIG LADY HOW DO YOU DO I AM SMALL LADY
Rose	"Why hello there, girl..."
R�senfeld	she does have a disarming quality though doesn't she? Roy I mean
Drufle (GM)	Well that's probably the corruption.
Rose	so does Rose
Drumun	Well, she is smol
Rose	doohohohohoho
Drumun	that helps
R�senfeld	here's this child who has cajones to spare
Drufle (GM)	Roy is perfectly capable of standing up for herself, she has the gut wound to show for it.
Roy	"I'm glad we're attracting more ladies here."
Drumun	fairy ladies, I noticed
R�senfeld	sigh.. really wish Russ wasn't so damn "stoical" so i could say hello to people too
Rose	"..."
Drumun	"Right, we ready?"
Roy	"Our old team was kind of.. how would you call it. A sausage fest??"
Drufle (GM)	I mean, the guild is 6 females and 8 males. R�senfeld raises his eyebrows to himself Rose 's shadow flips the bird at everyone
Drumun	3 of the girls I know are fae of some kind
Rose	anyone want to roll to notice that
R�senfeld	"You know, Roy, I don't think HK has one.'
Roy	"But to be fair, there was only four of us. And one was a machine."
Drufle (GM)	The odds were going to be against you regardless, I imagine.
R�senfeld	"I guess we'd better get going, then. Maybe one of the residents is still alive."
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 10 )+0+() = 10 I notice nothing
R�senfeld	it's not liek she was whispering that
Wari	"Well you got us now, Missy! That bucket of bolts is off gettin' his fender bended or whatever"
Roy	"Oh my..."
R�senfeld	"You will show the Holy Knight soem respect, young dwarf."
Drumun	"A shame, HK is quite the fighter"
Drufle (GM)	(To GM) rolling d20+4 ( 7 )+4 = 11
Drufle (GM)	(To GM) rolling d20+2 ( 11 )+2 = 13
Drumun	"Probably our best"
Drufle (GM)	(To GM) rolling d20+2 ( 4 )+2 = 6
Roy	"Yes, let us go rescue those agriculturists."
R�senfeld	"He basically saved our skins moer than once."
Wari	"Pft! friggin robots, stealin' our jobs..."
R�senfeld	wow my typing
Drufle (GM)	Off to the farm, then?
Drumun	"Wudn't his choice ta become one" R�senfeld shakes his head and heads out Wari sniffs
Drumun	aye, lets go off to the farm
R�senfeld	see what i did there?
Wari	yeah DAMN this is a map
Drumun	I c nothing so far
Roy	Bigge
R�senfeld	So Sam is rose, and who is Mopp? The.. green pog? Drumun breaths in and focuses
Drumun	I'm just gonna focus Qi before battle
Wari	I am Wari
Drufle (GM)	The fields outside of Caecras are swept with a brisk wind these days, and the long walk to the farm makes that all the more clear.
R�senfeld	Oh. doi right
Roy	"Ah, nature."
R�senfeld	struck by the urge to mine big rocks
Roy	"I hate nature."
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 10 )+0+() = 10
R�senfeld	damn all these openworld sandbox games
Drufle (GM)	A nice little farmhouse stands above the wide plains, but a number of boulders have jutted out of the earth by the front door.
Drumun	another 10, seriously?
Drufle (GM)	A 10 is a success, you know that right.
R�senfeld	10 is a pass
Drumun	barely though what do I hear?
R�senfeld	it doesn't matter in sotdl
Drufle (GM)	Well wind, mostly. Seriously, it's very windy. You hear mutterings and giggling from inside the house.
Drumun	"I kin hear something commin from the house"
Drufle (GM)	By the way, scroll up everyone.
Rose	Should I go ahead? you know, ranger stuff?
Drufle (GM)	Front door is marked there. Sure, you can do so.
R�senfeld	maybe you could sneak? elves are quite sneaky right?
Drumun	I am up for some sneaking
Drufle (GM)	It's an AGI check to try and sneak.
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 1d6k1( 4 )+1+( 2 ) = 7 bugger
Rose	okay Drumun trips on a rock and falls over
Rose	just checking boons
R�senfeld	"Drumun, you and the floor have more than a platonic relationship, don't you?"
Drufle (GM)	I don't believe you'll have any boons for this check.
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 20 )+2+() = 22
Drumun	"Ahm trying ta git out of it..."
Drufle (GM)	Oh.
R�senfeld	holy shmow
Drufle (GM)	Right then.
Drumun	she sneaking
Drufle (GM)	There goes that 20.
R�senfeld	does she like disappear for all of us
Drufle (GM)	Rose inexplicably turns nearly invisible, her armor blending in with the mud and stone. Drumun stands up and shakes his head
R�senfeld	just gone AHAHAHAH
Rose	"well boys, see you later!"
Drumun	"Where'd she..."
R�senfeld	"...Wow."
Drufle (GM)	You say boys, despite the party being 60% female.
Roy	"There she goes."
R�senfeld	well she'd have no reason to tease the little girl and that still only makes one female other than her right no wait
Drufle (GM)	You do make PER rolls with a boon though, if you wanted to listen or see things.
R�senfeld	it's 40% drufle
Rose	okay
Drumun	Wari is a lass
R�senfeld	but stache ok
Drumun	me and you are the only lads
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 1d6k1( 1 )+1+( 3 ) = 5
R�senfeld	will make adjustments
Drufle (GM)	All dwarves have beards. And oh dear.
Drumun	uh oh
Drufle (GM)	Was that a listen check? Or vision check?
Rose	perception yes oh hm listening, I think
R�senfeld	decide which one you want to burn
Drufle (GM)	Right.
R�senfeld	good choice
Drufle (GM)	Rose tiptoes up to the closest boulder and sticks her ear against the rock, hoping to hear things.
Drumun	how about I try smelling?
Drufle (GM)	The rock is very quiet.
Drumun	since hearing only gave me a little info
R�senfeld	lol
Rose	shall I just try looking?
R�senfeld	i love your failure text drufle
Drufle (GM)	You can roll vision as well, if you like. Try to do a little better, please.
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 1d6k1( 9 )+1+( 5 ) = 15
Drumun	I still get boons for sniffing, right?
Drufle (GM)	Drumun can roll nose too.
R�senfeld	'roll nose'
Drufle (GM)	Just the one, but yes.
R�senfeld	i'm dying here
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 11 )+0+( 6 ) = 17 sniff sniff snort
Drufle (GM)	Rose peers through the open door, looking for trouble. Drumun raises his nose to the air and smells
Drumun	snort
R�senfeld	I heft my crossbow and load it i know, you assume we do that at the start of battle, i just want it.. neater Rose nocks an arrow
Drufle (GM)	Drumun smells blood and gore, and fur.
Drumun	"Blood...lotsa blood" "an fur"
R�senfeld	"Damn..."
Rose	I'll go closer
R�senfeld	"Perhaps I should ask the Lord to bless us before we go in.."
Drufle (GM)	Drumun, I'd like to remind you that you are very much not sneaky, so watch where you step. Rose steps beside the door
Drumun	I dare not get closer, since I'm not sneaking
Drufle (GM)	Good.
R�senfeld	how long is that again, a minute?
Drumun	this is as close as I'll go
Drufle (GM)	6 rounds, Ruse.
Rose	"you can leave your lord out of this, thanks."
R�senfeld	so.. a minute?
Roy	ye
Drumun	yeah pretty much
R�senfeld	good maybe i shouldn't do it BEFORE combat then
Drumun	ohhhh that's a lot of goatmen
R�senfeld	well shit
Rose	can I shoot one now?
Drufle (GM)	Rose peers inside and sees a congregation of fomors, laughing and hawing and gnawing on some bones.
R�senfeld	drufle are you trying the polar opposite of two big guys?
Drumun	I would target the one that looks like a leader
Drufle (GM)	Yes. I am.
R�senfeld	good luck us
Drumun	I am going to have to punch a lot of things
R�senfeld	that's that many more chances for an enemy to roll somethin nasty
Drufle (GM)	This is a test, really. This is 33% easier than the High Inquisitor fight, in terms of difficulty.
Rose	can I mark the one that looks like the leader?
Drufle (GM)	That guy? You can click and hold to make a ping.
Roy	"I wonder how many of them are in there."
Drufle (GM)	Sure, go ahead. Marking doesn't really alert them to your presence. Roy has no idea about the Fear and Terror of what's to come.
Rose	"Alright, there's the boss. I've got you in my sights..."
Drufle (GM)	Ryuu waga teki...
R�senfeld	wa-huh?
Drufle (GM)	Wait I missed a word, rats.
Rose	shooting the goat
R�senfeld	oh boy you might want to wait
Drumun	we arn't sneaky
Rose	hm?
R�senfeld	until we are closer to you?
Drufle (GM)	Rose can't hear you!
Rose	nope
Drufle (GM)	Fire away!
Drumun	getting closer might alert them
R�senfeld	damnit
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 20 )+2+( 6 ) = 28
Drumun	welp
R�senfeld	what
Drufle (GM)	Oh FUCK
Roy	beautiful
R�senfeld	how do you nat20 twice
Drumun	sniped
Rose	using trickery?
Drufle (GM)	It's a good thing you aren't a warrior.
Rose	for that +1 die? and also exploit opportunity?
R�senfeld	yeah but you nat20'd
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, but that doesn't make you better at rolling 20s.
R�senfeld	twice
Drufle (GM)	Anyway, roll damage.
Rose	what I mean is I rolled a 20 so that's a crit does that stack with Trickery?
Drufle (GM)	There aren't crits in this game, unfortunately. Not in the traditional nat20 sense.
Drumun	some things have bonuses for rolling about a 20 *above
Drufle (GM)	You only get the 1d6 extra damage from Trickery.
Rose	yes but "Once per round, when the total of your attack roll is 20 or higher and exceeds the target number by at least 5, you can take another turn at any point before the
Rose	end of the round."
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, that does activate.
Rose	ok yes extra turn?
Drufle (GM)	You can take another shot.
Rose	right
Drufle (GM)	Since this is the surprise round.
Rose	ok rolling damage rolling 2d6 + 1 ( 3 + 6 )+1 = 10
R�senfeld	nice
Drumun	good damage
Drufle (GM)	And he takes two off that for his light armor.
Rose	and another shot
R�senfeld	roll another nat20 please those are good :P
Drumun	before he can even react he's gonna have another arrow in him what if she rolls another 20?
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 15 )+2+( 4 ) = 21
R�senfeld	nothin technically
Drumun	does that trigger again
Drufle (GM)	Whelp.
Drumun	also she just got it again
Rose	rolling 1d6 + 1( 5 )+1 = 6
R�senfeld	it's not a nat 20 tho another nat20 in a row and GM might've handed us a miracle becuase nat20
Drufle (GM)	The warrior roars! Two arrows pierce his hide, and he whips around, enraged.
R�senfeld	"Here we g." "Here we go*."
Drumun	"Sounds like we're fighting"
Roy	"What just happened?" Drumun draws his sword
Rose	"ok, that's enough teasing for now"
Drufle (GM)	He shouts something in a babbling, shrieking language, and a number of fomors turn around and start yelling.
Rose	can I move back now?
Drumun	one moment
Drufle (GM)	Not quite yet.
R�senfeld	i think not..
Drumun	I think battle just started
Drufle (GM)	And stop moving around, people!
R�senfeld	we're in combat
Drufle (GM)	Alright, fast turns first. Who of you is taking a fast or slow turn?
Rose	defiinitely me
Drumun	I will take a slow turn
Rose	fast
Roy	ill take a slow
R�senfeld	hm i want to trigger an action when all of the party is in range, bless? or will that be wasted
Drufle (GM)	Hm, that might not happen this turn. Unless Wari goes fast as well. Rose moves back
Drumun	"So how'd it go?"
Wari	and me as well to move up
R�senfeld	eh i'll trigger the thing later taking a slow
Drufle (GM)	Actually yeah, there's no chance. Prayer is touch-range.
Rose	"Oh it went swimmingly~"
R�senfeld	blessing but yeah it's touch
Drufle (GM)	Blessing, yeah.
Roy	"How many of them were in there?"
R�senfeld	anyone wnat revelations?
Drumun	I'm going to be doing a lot of double-attacks
Rose	"oh, a baker's dozen or so"
R�senfeld	oh that's touch too wow I can't really do much
Drumun	oh that was not quite a leader
R�senfeld	where do you lot want to group up?
Drumun	behind the rock for cover
Drufle (GM)	Wari and Rose have moved, anyone else going fast?
Wari	behind a rock
Drumun	if they have any range I don't want them to shoot us
R�senfeld	i'm using a different ta drufle
Wari	"Damn you elf! I've only got little legs!"
R�senfeld	if an enemy comes within my field of vision and isn't sneaking, I shoot at the enemy
Drumun	"That isn't much of an excuse, Wari"
Drufle (GM)	(To GM) rolling d3 ( 1 ) = 1
R�senfeld	and still slow so i can move to teh edge of the rrock is that ok?
Drufle (GM)	Sure.
R�senfeld	woops should probaly wait
Wari	"oh shut it, ya lump!"
R�senfeld	for the ast turns to happen
Drufle (GM)	Drumun, are you going fast?
Drumun	no, slow
Drufle (GM)	Right. Monster time!
Drumun	here they come
Roy	yike
R�senfeld	fucking herd of them
Drumun	that's not even all of it
Drufle (GM)	Alright, all the fasts are done. Slow turns!
Drumun	alright Drumun breaths in, deeply focusing
Drumun	Qi focus time lets go
R�senfeld	make it over 9000
Drufle (GM)	Can you even reach any of them?
Drumun	me?
Drufle (GM)	Yeah.
Drumun	Qi doesn't wear off until I actually expend it also I can almost reach one
Drufle (GM)	Oh, you get a speed bonus don't you.
Drumun	not sure with this rock
Drufle (GM)	I forgot about that.
Drumun	+4 speed
Drufle (GM)	Well, wherever you want to go.
Drumun	hmmm
Drufle (GM)	I'm going to quickly go refill my water. While you guys are thinking.
Drumun	how many can fit on the north side of that rock?
R�senfeld	since i haven't taken my turn yet an everybody's scattering maybe i'll just attack instead, what do you think?
Drumun	its an option with so many of these guys I think we'll want to save blessing because its not lasting through all of them
R�senfeld	yeah that's the idea we can always tactically retreat somewhre together oh that's a good point i guess
Drumun	I was think the point above the rock but I don't know how thin that is
R�senfeld	i['m used to things immediately needing bonuses to resist
Drufle (GM)	If you're asking about the giant pile of fomors, they can squeeze.
R�senfeld	there is like one tile of space there
Drumun	how many could actually attack me if I were up there?
Drufle (GM)	They are perfectly capable of moving through that stretch. Oh, you know, all of them.
R�senfeld	haha
Drumun	every single one could reach me at the same time? I find that hard to believe
Drufle (GM)	They're a mob, they aren't just 9 separate fomors. They act as one creature.
Drumun	oh bugger
R�senfeld	there's mechanics for that? cool
Drufle (GM)	So realistically, not really? But mechanically, absolutely.
Drumun	right not going up there then
Drufle (GM)	What are you doing, Roy?
Roy	I ready my crossbow how do i get line of sight on that leader one
Drufle (GM)	Move right a bit.
Roy	here?
R�senfeld	question: if i do the TA after all, and take a slow turn after, will the trigger remain until it is actually my turn again?
Drufle (GM)	That should be fine.
Ruse	No.
Roy	ok i will
Drufle (GM)	Triggers only last during the round they're used.
R�senfeld	gr.
Drumun	they all went fast anyways
Drufle (GM)	Did they?
Drumun	well
Drufle (GM)	All the ones you can see went fast.
R�senfeld	i'm asking about NEXT round
Drumun	except that sneaky one you accidently revealed
Roy	expend a casting of conjure weapon to cast mighty attack
Drufle (GM)	Next round, you should be able to, yes.
R�senfeld	no, i mean nevermin d
Roy	and expend a casting of sense magic to cast epiphany
Drufle (GM)	Geez.
Drumun	going all in
Drufle (GM)	Super Wizard.
Drumun	don't miss
Roy	so thats one boon i reroll and take the higher roll
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead, fire away. Roy: Attack Roll Attack Roll 16 Boon/Bane Roll VS Defense Damage Roll
Drufle (GM)	That's a hit. Roy: Attack Roll Attack Roll 9 Boon/Bane Roll VS Defense Damage Roll Boon/Bane Add or Subtract 4
Drufle (GM)	The epiphany wasn't necessary, but still useful!
Roy	i roll 20 :D
R�senfeld	what is all of this
Roy	damage is 4d6
Drufle (GM)	Is a crossbow 2d6?
R�senfeld	2d6 y
Roy	yes
Drumun	Roy, you know that the character sheets have macros built into them, right?
Drufle (GM)	Dang. Roy: Damage Roll Damage 14
Drufle (GM)	Wow, ok. So 10 damage total. The crossbow bolt pierces the warrior's throat, and he slumps against the boulder, gurgling.
Roy	"Get sniped!"
Drumun	is he dead?
Drufle (GM)	Yes.
Drumun	well alright
Drufle (GM)	Although I won't be removing enemies from the field this time around. They're difficult terrain!
Drumun	HA doesn't stop me Rose glares at Roy for kill-stealing
Drufle (GM)	They will be marked with that little skull and crossbones. That I hope you can see.
Roy	its fine
Drumun	I am 90% certain you are hiding a necromancer somewhere
Drufle (GM)	Anyway, anyone else going slow?
Drumun	I was but I haven't moved yet
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead, then.
Drumun	okay what do you guys want me to do?
Roy	idk move to the right? below the boulder
R�senfeld	if you could somehow rid us of all of them at once i'd be quite grateful failing that, i dunno yeah do what roy said
Drumun	:P here?
Roy	yeah be a frontliner
Drumun	I can move just a little bit further
Rose	do a spirit bomb
Drufle (GM)	I mean, you are probably the tankiest one of the party now.
Drumun	oh dear well I Qi focused and moved
R�senfeld	no HK for them to run into the lifeless corpse of this time
Drumun	or did I qi focus last roung? round
Wari	yes this is Hard Mode
Drufle (GM)	You said you had qi focused before battle.
Drumun	oh right I prepare an action if a Fomor enters my range, I'll hit them with a defensive strike
R�senfeld	ooh now i have an idea for slow turn, good, thanks drumun
Drufle (GM)	Alright, what are you doing Ruse?
R�senfeld	first i move here: the i prepare an action when a creature comes in range of drumun's attack, I shoot them over his head
Drufle (GM)	Ok then. That's all the players done, so monster slow turn!
Drumun	here he comes
R�senfeld	the necrodancer?
Roy	i hoped theyll surrender when the leader died but i guess not
Drumun	that wasn't the leader, I don't think
Drufle (GM)	It sure wasn't! I mean, he was second in command.
Drumun	there he is
Drufle (GM)	Alright, so billy bob jim steps out here.
R�senfeld	hullo nice pic
Drumun	he's got range, great
Drufle (GM)	He points towards the group with a skull-capped staff, and shouts something piercing and vile. A fireball launches from the tip of his staff!
Drumun	welp
Wari	time 2 die
Roy	tpk! tpk!
Drufle (GM)	This one fomor gets hit too, though.
Drumun	um...how big is this fireball?
Drufle (GM)	I'd like all 4 of you to make an AGI check
R�senfeld	spirit bomb*
Wari	any AGI saves?
Drumun	Rose we need you to get rid of this guy
Roy	Large
Wari	ok there
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+1( 19 )+1 = 20
R�senfeld	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 0d6k1( 3 )+1+() = 4
Drufle (GM)	The fomor saves.
R�senfeld	ouch
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 0d6k1( 9 )+1+() = 10
Drufle (GM)	Roy saves.
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 0d6k1( 19 )+1+() = 20
Roy	thank goodness
Drufle (GM)	Wari?
Wari	rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 2 )+0+() = 2 Drumun jumps up, using the boulder to help avoid the fire
Drufle (GM)	Ah. rolling 5d6 ( 6 + 6 + 4 + 3 + 4 ) = 23 Those of you that saved only take 11 damage!
Drumun	ow
Drufle (GM)	Wari and Ruse get hit with 23.
Drumun	holy shit Roy covers herself with her cloak. Wari burns alive
Drufle (GM)	A massive blaze leaps across the field, scorching a section of the battlefield.
Drumun	I hope it only had one casting of that
Drufle (GM)	The fomor is immediately immolated.
R�senfeld	how much does soft leather armor reduce?
Drufle (GM)	Oh, right.
Drumun	armor doesn't do shit against magic
R�senfeld	i am dead.
Drufle (GM)	Not quite!
Drumun	thanks drufle you killed us
R�senfeld	21 health, mate.
Wari	so is it reduced by 5?
Drufle (GM)	We have the new rules, however. And no, it isn't.
Wari	if leather?
Drumun	again, armor doesn't stop magic
Drufle (GM)	Magic goes right through armor DR.
R�senfeld	right so what happens now?
Wari	oh ok ruse is dead
Drufle (GM)	Ruse, roll 1d3.
R�senfeld	some roll right? rolling 1d3 ( 3 ) = 3
Drufle (GM)	If someone can use an action to stabilize you in the next 3 rounds, you'll heal back up to your rate.
Drumun	so this fight is a loss we literally just started R�senfeld screams and falls to the ground, a crispy, writhing pile of charred meat
Drufle (GM)	This is part of the simplified/nicer death rules we have decided to use.
Roy	"AAA"
Drumun	"Russ!"
Drufle (GM)	So, top of the round!
Drumun	"This is bad"
Wari	"SHIT"
Drufle (GM)	And for those wondering, yes that was absolutely his worst spell, and he has only one of it.
Drumun	"Ah dunno if we can handle another shot like that" Drumun does not know how magic works he's only got Qi
Drufle (GM)	Also he just rolled obscenely well on damage. So, who's going fast? Rose watches the fireball explosion impassively
Roy	"Fires from hell! I should have invested in some protective magic."
Drumun	how's that experiment going for ya, Drufle?
Rose	I'm going slow
Drufle (GM)	Well to be fair, he's the only one who has done anything.
Drumun	I need to defend
Roy	im going slow
Drufle (GM)	Clearly all I needed was a single caster.
Drumun	I'll go fast and prepare an action
Drufle (GM)	Wari, fast or slow?
R�senfeld	druf we forgot to enter vitality burst into my spells
Drufle (GM)	Oh, whoops. Let me add that quick.
Drumun	if any hostile enemy gets close I'll defensive strike
Drufle (GM)	There, I added the description.
R�senfeld	thanks
Drufle (GM)	Wari?
R�senfeld	so if you guys stabilize me i can heal my heal rate at least
Drufle (GM)	Rose and Roy are going slow, and Drumun is preparing.
R�senfeld	and the rest of you well 2 more of you
Drumun	we need someone to save fuss
Wari	I need to stabilize ruse but also heal myself
R�senfeld	i can heal you justn eed to be able to act
Drumun	Russ I don't think you get back up you just don't die
R�senfeld	do i not? oh well poo
Drufle (GM)	I mean, he's still on the ground.
Wari	ok I need to move next to ruse I guess
Drufle (GM)	You can cast just fine from the ground.
R�senfeld	i can?
Drumun	but he's unconcious?
R�senfeld	if i'm getting actions does that not make me still in combat?
Drufle (GM)	Not if someone stabilizes him, he heals his rate automatically.
Drumun	and gets up concious again?
Drufle (GM)	Well he doesn't stand up but he is conscious.
Drumun	that seems...way too nice
Wari	can I ask questions now?
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead.
Wari	okay
Roy	yes please
Wari	can I heal myself with catch your breath, move next to ruse, and try and stabilize him? if not, how many of those things can/should I do
Drumun	you need a move and an action to save russ
Drufle (GM)	Yes, but only on a slow turn.
Wari	all of them on slow? okay
R�senfeld	i have 3 turns, take your time to think the situation through if you need to
Drumun	is Catch Breath a triggered action?
Drufle (GM)	Yeah.
Wari	it can be
Drumun	oh good to know
Drufle (GM)	So that's all for the player fast turns! Monster fast turns.
Drumun	look out Rose HELLO FOMOR
Drufle (GM)	GRAR
Drumun	I stab first sorry defensive strike is 1 bane?
Drufle (GM)	And by the way, it's an actual rule that I'm not allowed to attack incapacitated players.
Drumun	or two?
Drufle (GM)	1 bane, but you get the boon for the prepared strike.
R�senfeld	oh is that what i turn into
Drufle (GM)	So they cancel out.
Drumun	okay so 1 boon total
R�senfeld	i should probably not be able to cast
Drumun	because warrior rolling 1d20 + 3 + 1d6k1 ( 10 )+3+( 2 ) = 15
Drufle (GM)	You can't cast now, but you can if someone wakes you up! That's a hit.
Drumun	defensive strike boys rolling 2d6 + 2 ( 6 + 4 )+2 = 12
R�senfeld	if i wake up i'm not still incapacitated?
Drufle (GM)	And he is dead.
R�senfeld	i'm sorry but this is confusing
Drumun	"Back down, goat"
Drufle (GM)	Alright, here. Incapacitated means you are unconscious and unable to act.
Drumun	oh good, I'm going to have a wall of corpeses in front of me
Drufle (GM)	You are at 0 hp, and will begin dying in 2 turns. If someone stabilizes you with an action, you heal your rate from 0 and become conscious, not incapacitated. You will still be on the ground, however, and will have to use a move action to stand up if you want to.
R�senfeld	ahhh so i turn into a prone, hurt normal player?
Drufle (GM)	Yes.
R�senfeld	right y'all stabilise me when i have the time for a slow turn if you can then, pleaase
Drufle (GM)	This fomor tries to climb on his friend to hit you.
Drumun	come into my parlor, said the dwarf to the goat
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+2( 7 )+2 = 9 SWING
Drumun	hell no he just fumbles
Drufle (GM)	Hey to be fair, with the new defense rules 9 isn't that bad! I mean, it is against you. But in general it's a more viable roll.
Drumun	I am so evasive "Another one, eh?"
Drufle (GM)	Wait, he can't get there. Also, this is a fast turn.
Drumun	yep
Drufle (GM)	He wouldn't have been able to hit anyway without a charge. Fast turns over!
Drumun	I need to vanish for a bit brb
Drufle (GM)	Slow player turns!
Roy	me
Rose	or me?
R�senfeld	i use my turn to writhe in vivid agony
Drufle (GM)	Whoever wants to go first, go ahead.
R�senfeld	because right nwo that's all i can do :P
Roy	you first
Rose	me first! I want to take out my wand
Drufle (GM)	By the way, I feel the need to mention this. Mobs take half damage from individual-target attacks, but double from aoe attacks.
R�senfeld	hint hint Roy?
Drufle (GM)	Although... If you can actually charm them, it will charm the entire mob.
Roy	nope! nada
Drufle (GM)	If that's what you were going for.
Rose	right okay yes
R�senfeld	damn wait what CHARM 'EM
Drufle (GM)	Charming doesn't mean you control them though. I want everyone to remember that.
R�senfeld	we'll deal with them later charm them
Rose	whip out wand and charm them then
R�senfeld	:P
Drufle (GM)	Make a will roll!
Rose	and then run no boons
Drufle (GM)	Nope.
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 1 + 0d6k1( 4 )+1+() = 5
Drumun	back
Drufle (GM)	Well then. That's unfortunate.
Rose	oh well
R�senfeld	if only i had blessed us before we went into the fight
Drumun	I see Rose's womanly wiles do not effect the goatmen
Rose	run away?
Drufle (GM)	Run! Roy, you go ahead.
R�senfeld	umm
Drufle (GM)	Wow, 12 tiles is fast.
Rose	"well, I'm out of here"
R�senfeld	your.. comrades?
Rose	"have fun folks!"
R�senfeld	mean nothing to you? lmao hahahahaha
Roy	how long is medium range
Drufle (GM)	20 tiles. Everything is in medium range.
Roy	oh ok
Drumun	umm where are you aiming?
Drufle (GM)	Yep, everything is still in medium range.
Roy	i expend conjure medium monster to summon two small monsters Roy pulls out some things from her cloak.
Drufle (GM)	Where do they go?
Drumun	suddenly mimikyus
Roy	"Go forth! Shards of Carcosa!" "I'm gonna go far away from here."
Drumun	"Eh? The little guys again?"
R�senfeld	i am having the time of my life imagining roy shouting that
Drufle (GM)	Wari, you're up.
R�senfeld	this little girl
Drumun	"Roy please blow up the hoard"
Drufle (GM)	Heal, move, stabilize?
Wari	yes
R�senfeld	Go forth! pff Wari battles through the pain
Drufle (GM)	Alright, heal your rate, and Ruse, you too.
Roy	when do the shards attack
Wari	"I FUCKING hate fire."
Drufle (GM)	Oh, shards can go right now. One action or move.
Roy	i make them both do frenzied attacks R�senfeld breathes a little easier and opens his eyes, which have been clamped shut
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead.
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 8 )+2+() = 10
Drufle (GM)	A hit.
R�senfeld	"nngh! huh. ah!.. Damn. What the blazes just happened?"
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 7 )+2+() = 9
Wari	oh don't I have to roll? to stabilize?
Drufle (GM)	A miss.
Drumun	"Fire happened, Russ, They have a mage"
Drufle (GM)	No, not while he's in his 3 rounds.
Roy	this one is the first one
Drufle (GM)	After those 3 rounds it's an INT check. Roll damage!
Roy	do i roll 2 1d6? or just one
Wari	"we got fucking bombed, man"
R�senfeld	"That mage.. is mine."
Drufle (GM)	Did you use both of your attacks against the same guy?
Roy	different ones
Drufle (GM)	Then it's two separate 1d6+2
Drumun	"Ah think he's around the rock"
Roy	these are small ones so just 1d6
Drufle (GM)	Oh, right.
Roy	rolling 1d6 + 0( 1 )+0 = 1
Drufle (GM)	Roll away then.
Roy	rolling 1d6 + 0( 6 )+0 = 6
Drufle (GM)	Well then.
Drumun	bop
Drufle (GM)	Those are against which guys?
Roy	top, then right
Drufle (GM)	Right then. Roll your other monster's attacks.
Roy	whu
R�senfeld	so do i a get a turn at the top o next round?
Drumun	probably?
Drufle (GM)	That roll was just for one monster, right? You were making a frenzied attack. And yes, Ruse.
Roy	oh separate ok
Drufle (GM)	I mean if you're making two separate frenzied attacks, that's 4 rolls total.
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 17 )+2+() = 19
Drufle (GM)	Wow, a hit.
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 8 )+2+() = 10
Drufle (GM)	And a hit.
Roy	rolling 1d6 + 0( 5 )+0 = 5 rolling 1d6 + 0 ( 1 )+0 = 1
Drumun	where is that goat going?
Drufle (GM)	As the monster swings into the second fomor, the beastman dissipates into black smoke!
Drumun	uh oh
R�senfeld	huh
Drumun	fakes!
R�senfeld	mirags?
Wari	ok that's different
Drufle (GM)	The other beastman is dead, impaled by... something.
Drumun	cloth
R�senfeld	oh god
Drumun	impaled by cloth
R�senfeld	i knew there was a demon here somewhere
Drufle (GM)	Anyway, that's everything; all the monsters went fast turns. Top of the round! Who's going fast/slow?
R�senfeld	slow
Drumun	right so this Fomor is in the way
Rose	slow
Drumun	If it wasn't I could reach the mage and hit it
R�senfeld	i'm using vitality burst - so stick around if you want heals
Wari	please
Drumun	I'll just Defensive Strike again
Roy	im taking a fast turn
R�senfeld	it heals your rate and i can only heal 3 creatures, inc. me
Drumun	fast turn for me
Drufle (GM)	Alright, Roy first.
Roy	i expend a casting of conjure small monster
Drufle (GM)	If Roy can kill the fomors, Drumun can get around at hit the voidcaller, yes?
Drumun	yes this one needs to die this one too because it'll probably get in my way again unless I charge
Drufle (GM)	Roy, what are you doing with your magic? Are you summoning another guy?
Roy	yes
Drumun	:D
Drufle (GM)	To what point? Right. Attack away.
R�senfeld	man remember when we just started sotdl and hashed out that we should probably run away from fights we.. never ran
Roy	can the other monsters take slow turns
R�senfeld	from a single one
Drumun	we did not fight the Ghoul
Wari	we're not in a positio to do so, really fights progress the story they shouldn't but that's what it is
Drumun	Roy I need this fomor and the one north of you dead
R�senfeld	i know, it's still funny
Drumun	or I'm forced to use a charge
Drufle (GM)	The other monsters can be slow, yes.
Drumun	which is bad
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 9 )+2+( 2 ) = 13
Drufle (GM)	A hit.
Roy	rolling 1d6 + 0( 4 )+0 = 4
Drufle (GM)	Good. Anyone else going fast?
Drumun	I mean
Wari	is there even anything I can do?
R�senfeld	sonic
Roy	"Eat them all up! Offerings to the Yellow King!"
Drumun	if roy's other shards want to help
Wari	because that mob is gunnning for us and we are all going to die
Drumun	otherwise I'll defensive strike instead of moving
Roy	what if the mob is an illusion too
Drufle (GM)	Ruse, you should probably vitality burst.
R�senfeld	we should be so lucky
Drumun	best way to find out is to bomb them
Wari	...
R�senfeld	i highly doubt that
Drufle (GM)	Hit Drumun/you/Wari.
R�senfeld	i will vit. burst but i'm taking a slow turn so i can stand up!
Drufle (GM)	Oh. Alright then.
R�senfeld	so waiting for other people to take theirs
Drufle (GM)	Is anybody else going fast? Or was it just Roy?
Drumun	Roy pls get this fomor out of the way
Wari	I can get heals while moving around to hit that one goat?
Roy	btw i forgot to count down the rounds of my summons are you keeping count druf
Drufle (GM)	I am.
Wari	do I need to be adjacent to russ, is what I mean
R�senfeld	if you're referring to my spell, it's short range
Roy	ok thank u
R�senfeld	how far is short range?
Wari	ok that's fine
Drufle (GM)	Vitality burst is within 5 tiles.
Wari	smack this dude
Drufle (GM)	Are you charging?
Wari	oh wait yeah fast turn oh well back I go
Drumun	I mean its that or I don't move
Drufle (GM)	Is Rose going slow?
Wari	yes
Drufle (GM)	Alright then. Monster fast turn!
Drumun	hold it I didn't use my fast turn
R�senfeld	Objection!
Drufle (GM)	Oh, I thought you were going to go slow. Alright, hit the goatman.
Drumun	I was waiting to see if this goat was going to die or not its alive so I defensive Strike
Drufle (GM)	Alright, roll away.
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 3 )+3+() = 6
Drufle (GM)	Nope.
Drumun	fine by me, I'm still giving them banes
Drufle (GM)	A valiant effort. So now it's monster fast turn. Fomor man... needs to hit somebody
Drumun	remember the bane
Drufle (GM)	Ah, butts. Music stopped.
Drumun	D:
Drufle (GM)	Screw it, new song.
Drumun	fanburst is actual garbage
Drufle (GM)	Back to the classic. The fomor will stab the small shard! Actually, the other one.
Roy	"My babies!"
Drufle (GM)	The one that did more damage. rolling d20+2-1d6 ( 7 )+2-( 2 ) = 7 Whelp.
Drumun	isn't he frightened?
Roy	nope!
R�senfeld	he suredoesn't
Drumun	he's surrounded by hostiles
Drufle (GM)	He is, hence the bane.
Drumun	alright then
Drufle (GM)	Other fomor! rolling d20+2 ( 16 )+2 = 18 rolling d6 ( 3 ) = 3 3 damage to little shard.
R�senfeld	shank
Drumun	here comes the hoard
Wari	well it was nice knowing ya
Drumun	now we really need roy to explode them
Drufle (GM)	They come 'round the boulder, and suddenly see the giant pile of people to the side.
Roy	oh shit
R�senfeld	c'mon really
Drufle (GM)	Can't really do much this turn, though. Because fast.
Drumun	they move way too fast Wari glares daggers at the gibbering horde
Drufle (GM)	That was only like 7 tiles!
Drumun	still too fast
Drufle (GM)	:P Rose waves at the gibbering horde as it stampedes past
Drufle (GM)	One more. Drumun remains focused on the Fomor in front of him
Drufle (GM)	This guy doesn't see the other PCs because the crowd is blocking his view. So he just runs after Rose. Voidcaller is taking a slow turn. Player slow turns!
Rose	am I still stealthed??
R�senfeld	i stand up, and cast vitality burst
Drufle (GM)	No, not since you shot a guy with arrows.
R�senfeld	me, wari and drumun
Drumun	alright
Rose	fair point
Drufle (GM)	Alright, all three of you heal your rate.
Drumun	nice
Drufle (GM)	Vitality Burst was definitely the right choice over Mod Healing.
Drumun	I have so much health its rediculous
Drufle (GM)	Who else is going slow?
R�senfeld	good, use it to protect me so i can bless y'all :P
Roy	the monsters
Wari	"That's better. Thanks, preacher man."
Drufle (GM)	Oh, the monsters. Yeah, let Roy's two shards go first.
R�senfeld	"Thank me when we are not dead and these creatures are."
Rose	me and Wari are slow
Drufle (GM)	Roy, go ahead with your dudes.
Drumun	"Ah still can't see their mage"
R�senfeld	i love how we say all these things in the spaces of 10 seconds if we played this lie a movie it would completely work it's awesome
Drufle (GM)	Oh, wait. Well bugger me. I forgot a thing but I'll just start implementing it from here on.
Roy	ok the two shards attack this one in front
Drufle (GM)	Alright, roll away.
R�senfeld	what thing is this and do we want to kill it with fire
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 2 )+2+( 2 ) = 6
Drufle (GM)	A secret thing, and not really. A miss.
Roy	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 8 )+2+( 3 ) = 13
Drufle (GM)	A hit!
Roy	rolling 1d6 + 0( 2 )+0 = 2
Drufle (GM)	This fomor is very close to dead. But he's still barely standing. Rose? You're up.
Rose	alright mark the lone goat looking at me
Drufle (GM)	Righto.
Rose	and trickery and then shoot
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead!
R�senfeld	wow a boon you can repeat getting?
Drufle (GM)	2 boons, by the way.
Drumun	to be fair Warriors get boons just for using weapons
R�senfeld	is it a spell?
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, she can do Trickery every round. No, it's a Rogue thing.
R�senfeld	that's awesome
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 2d6k1( 11 )+2+( 6 + 4 ) = 19
Drufle (GM)	Hit. Just barely EO. But not quite.
Rose	2d6 right
Drufle (GM)	Yep.
Rose	rolling 2d6 + 1( 4 + 2 )+1 = 7
Drufle (GM)	Arrow right in the torso, he is bleeding profusely. He bleats angrily. BAAAAAA
Roy	thats cute
Drufle (GM)	Wari? I think you're all that's left now. Rose swears in elvish
Roy	blow them up
R�senfeld	our only hope
Wari	if i blow them up I blow you up!
R�senfeld	blow everything up!
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, you guys are too close.
Wari	ok!
Drumun	that would be bad for you Russ
R�senfeld	lol yeh i am kidding
Drumun	I'd survive it just fine
Drufle (GM)	KAMIKAZE
R�senfeld	don't actually kill us all
Wari	6 tile spread isn't it?
Drufle (GM)	It's a spread equal to your strain. You have no strain.
Wari	ah right that's fine
Drumun	it'd just give you a migrain at this point
Drufle (GM)	You can still use your spell to smack the mob.
Wari	over here
Drufle (GM)	There you go.
Wari	then spell
Drufle (GM)	So you do 1d6 extra damage, and +1 boon. On top of your warrior stuff. So go ahead and roll to hit.
Wari	okay
Drufle (GM)	Oh, and another boon. For sorcery.
Roy	so many
Wari	"Okay you farm-stinking assholes, come and get me!!"
Drufle (GM)	So I think you have 3 total boons.
Wari	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 3d6k1( 10 )+2+( 4 + 4 + 4 ) = 16
Drufle (GM)	A hit.
Drumun	excellent
Drufle (GM)	So now...
Wari	and damage is?
Drufle (GM)	What weapon do you have?
Wari	battleaxe 2d6+2 not sure if that's incporporating warrior stuff
Drufle (GM)	Well 3d6+2 then, for the batlte magic damage.
Wari	ok
Drufle (GM)	Yeah that is incorporating your warrior die.
Wari	rolling 3d6 + 2( 3 + 5 + 3 )+2 = 13
Roy	nice
Drumun	good damage
Wari	halved due to mob
Drufle (GM)	Right then.
Drumun	now explode? Wari lays into the crowd with her axe
Drufle (GM)	No, explosions happen at the end of the round.
Drumun	ah
Drufle (GM)	Caster man has to go first! Wari 's temples begin to throb
Drumun	after the voidcaller then
Drufle (GM)	The void caller is confused and trying to figure out what to do.
Roy	relatable
Drumun	he got himself into this mess
R�senfeld	he better come here so i can run a bolt through his fucking eyeball
Drufle (GM)	Oh, even better.
Drumun	if these fomors go down he'll have to deal with me
Drufle (GM)	Caster fight!
Roy	pls no
Drufle (GM)	He points his skull staff at Roy, and shouts a blistering word!
Drumun	he already used his strongest spell
Wari	he probably has 10 slightly less bad spells
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+1( 20 )+1 = 21
Wari	AUGH
Drufle (GM)	HOLY SHIT
Drumun	of course
R�senfeld	strongest =/= the only damage-dealing one
Drufle (GM)	I mean, that isn't actually a big deal.
Drumun	yes but this one probably won't kill roy
Roy	i hope it doesnt do extra damage or something
Wari	words will never hurt us
Drufle (GM)	Roy, you take a -5 penalty to health and you make str/agi rolls with 2 banes.
Roy	that incapacitates me
Drumun	ooof
Wari	I don't think she has that much health to spare...
Drufle (GM)	It does actually have a 20+ thing, but it's just that the curse lasts until he dies instead of for 1 minute.
Drumun	yeah thats...that's not good
Drufle (GM)	Alright, roll a 1d3!
R�senfeld	ffs
Drumun	Rose please save Roy
Roy	rolling 1d3( 1 ) = 1
R�senfeld	stupid fucking voidcaller
Drumun	okay REALLY save roy
Drufle (GM)	She won't start dying for 1 round! And that's the end of the round, so Wari explodes!
Wari	HNNNGHH ok
R�senfeld	if rose wants to have a bit of compassion for the little girl now's the time
Drumun	"Roy is down!"
Drufle (GM)	Roll 2d6 for me, pal.
Wari	why? I only have 1 strain
Roy	"Lost Carcosa..."
Drufle (GM)	Oh, right. Sorry. I don't know what I was thinking there.
Wari	sam is scolding me for following the rules oh well
Drumun	pffft
Drufle (GM)	Oh, because you do double damage since it's an aoe strike.
Wari	oh right
Drumun	roll 1d6, then double that
Wari	let's go
Drufle (GM)	But you can just double that yeah.
Wari	rolling 1d6( 5 ) = 5
Drumun	good damage
R�senfeld	they dead yet? Wari 's psycho-magic blast crashes into the mob
Drufle (GM)	Not quite, no.
Roy	do the shards do anything if im incapacitated
Drufle (GM)	No, actually. Not until you die.
Drumun	fuck I need this fomor out of my face right now
Drufle (GM)	I mean, I get to control them now. But they're still allied to you. Now, I was going to get to do this really sweet thing with the mob. But Wari did too much damage and now I can't.
Wari	ahahahahah
Drumun	excellent
Drufle (GM)	If they're above 50% health, everyone that ends the round next to them takes 2d6 damage on a failed agi save.
Drumun	are we top of the round again?
Drufle (GM)	And yep! Top of the round.
Wari	well that's a mercy
Drumun	right shards pls help get rid of this fomor
Drufle (GM)	Shards will go fast, at least some of them. This guy frenzies.
Wari	can I go fast and save roy?
Drufle (GM)	No, you need to move and action.
Drumun	still need an action
Drufle (GM)	So slow.
Wari	ok then
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+2( 3 )+2 = 5
Wari	Rose is fasting
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+2( 18 )+2 = 20 rolling 1d6 ( 1 ) = 1 This fomor dissipates into smoke!
R�senfeld	it's not like she gets much of a chance to eat during the fight anyway, Mopp
Drumun	hmmm

Drumun	Rose can't help going fast! oh god
Drufle (GM)	While they discuss.
Drumun	Roy is dead
R�senfeld	yeah i mean really she's just gonna leave the little kid to die
Drumun	She is out of the guild if that happens
Drufle (GM)	If that's her character, that's what she'll do!
Drumun	Drumun will not forgive that Drumun will never forgive her
R�senfeld	hey i'm not sayin "you can't"
Rose	so no marking needed trickery active
R�senfeld	i'm just curious
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, he's still marked.
Rose	1 boon then>
Drumun	Wari is the only one that can save her then
Drufle (GM)	2 boons!
R�senfeld	i can dash actually
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 2d6k1( 12 )+2+( 4 + 3 ) = 18
Drumun	which puts Russ in range of the hoard
R�senfeld	on a slow turn
Drufle (GM)	A hit!
R�senfeld	it does mean i can't cast anything at drumun so.. it depends on you a fair bit, wri
Rose	rolling 2d6 + 1( 6 + 5 )+1 = 12
R�senfeld	wari
Drufle (GM)	And wow that fomor is all kinds of dead. Arrow right through the eyes. Rose knocks its block off
Drumun	"I'll handle that mage"
Drufle (GM)	Anyone else going fast?
Rose	"another pelt for me..."
R�senfeld	um it depends i guess actually it doesn't since wari needs to go slow to save roy right?
Wari	Im going to go heal up roy
Drufle (GM)	Alright!
R�senfeld	so you need slow
Drumun	Russ you need to get away from the hoard
Drufle (GM)	Fast turns for monsters, then?
Drumun	no
R�senfeld	i mean i need to stay to cast i can't do fast AND run away
Drumun	you could very well die again or be knocked down again
R�senfeld	then we coudl retreat and you can attack after if we survive
Drumun	that mage outranges us
R�senfeld	what's your speed?
Drumun	12
R�senfeld	mine is 10 well fuck what o
Drumun	the mage can fire 20 tiles
R�senfeld	do*
Wari	can't we double up?
Drumun	right Wari stay in one place
Wari	just gallop on out of here
Drumun	keep the hoard at bay Russ go save Roy
Wari	ok
Drumun	I'll fight the Voidwalker
R�senfeld	aye, that will require a slow turn so that's what i'm doing
Drumun	he's alone now and I have a ton of health I charge the voidcaller 2 banes for charging right?
R�senfeld	ever hear a dwarf roar?
Wari	yes
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, 2 banes.
R�senfeld	it's a lovely sound go kill it!
Drumun	right, 1 boon for warrior
Drufle (GM)	Prayer?
R�senfeld	absolutely since its a ta just assume if i can, i am
Drumun	oh you prayering me?
Drufle (GM)	I mean, he might as well.
Wari	I should mention that Sam's deadline is 6pm GMT
R�senfeld	well yes, i thought we cleared that up before
Wari	so. half an hour
Drufle (GM)	Oh, ok.
Drumun	rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 12 )+3+() = 15
Drufle (GM)	A hit!
Drumun	rolling 2d6 + 2( 2 + 1 )+2 = 5 uhg bad damage
R�senfeld	damn that could've been a bit better huh
Drufle (GM)	Hit to the face. Wari, are you going fast?
Drumun	I can actually take a hit from this thing though
Wari	if russ is being roy-saver then yes
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead.
Wari	okay
Drufle (GM)	You can do one more magic punch.
Wari	if strain is at the end of the round
Drufle (GM)	If you'd like.
Wari	then russ will be out of the way when I go off hopefully
Drumun	probably
Drufle (GM)	Well he's out of the way now anyways.
R�senfeld	yeah i will be
Drumun	I mean he's already out of range
Wari	range increases with more strain but ok "GRAAAAAAAH"
Drufle (GM)	You lost your strain.
R�senfeld	i'm going to be more than 6 tiles out at the end o the turn
Wari	did I?
Drufle (GM)	That's what the explosion is for.
Drumun	exploding reduces it back to 0
Wari	so I do't HAVE to use it?
Drumun	no of course not
Wari	oh well you should have said!
Drumun	but you make Will checks to hold onto it
Wari	ok
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, and strain doesn't increase damage anyway.
Drumun	its also your best weapon against a hoard
Drufle (GM)	Just distance.
Wari	right
Drufle (GM)	The explosion's damage is only affected by your power.
Drumun	so there isn't a reason to hold onto it unless you're trying not to hurt an ally
Drufle (GM)	So go ahead and roll with 3 boons.
R�senfeld	prayer included right?
Wari	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 3d6k1( 12 )+2+( 5 + 3 + 3 ) = 19
Drufle (GM)	No, you only get one prayer per round. A hit!
R�senfeld	it doesn't say it's once per round
Drufle (GM)	Well you only have one t-action.
Drumun	it uses a triggered action
Drufle (GM)	So it may as well be once per round.
Wari	rolling 3d6 + 2( 4 + 2 + 6 )+2 = 14
R�senfeld	ah
Drufle (GM)	Oh lord.
Drumun	nice damage
R�senfeld	good stuff
Drufle (GM)	They are sputtering and gagging and generally doing quite poorly. Finally, monster fast turn!
Drumun	I hope they like Explosions
Wari	bits of goatman fly about the field
R�senfeld	pls dun kill me
Drufle (GM)	The mob attacks Wari!
R�senfeld	pls dun kill wari
Drufle (GM)	rolling d20+2+4d6k1( 20 )+2+( 4 + 3 + 5 + 5 ) = 27 RARGLEBLARGLE
R�senfeld	holy hell
Drumun	they do very well at attacking wari
Drufle (GM)	rolling d6( 4 ) = 4 thwack
Drumun	okay nvm
Wari	"GET SOME YOUBLARGBLE"
Drufle (GM)	They do 3d6 damage when they arent injured! Wari is muffled by the press of bodies
Drufle (GM)	You guys knocked their health down before they could do any real damage.
R�senfeld	bloody well that we did, too
Drufle (GM)	Anyway, one step please.
R�senfeld	?
Drumun	no AoO?
Drufle (GM)	Mr. Voidcaller is gonna take a step back. Nope!
Drumun	because?
Drufle (GM)	If you use a t-action to move one tile, it doesn't provoke AOOs.
Drumun	huh
Drufle (GM)	It's just like the 5-foot step from pathfinder.
Drumun	alright then
Wari	jump to the left, step to the right
R�senfeld	sigh let's go back to 1-2 BIG guys after this
Drumun	what nonsense is he going to throw at me now
Drufle (GM)	FIRE PEW
Wari	no it's fine! just
R�senfeld	i liked it better when it was easy :P
Drumun	oh good just fire
Drufle (GM)	rolling 1d20+3( 6 )+3 = 9 Whelp.
Wari	don't have a bloody magician there to spoil the mook funtimes
Drumun	lolnope Drumun kinda just bats the fireball away
Drufle (GM)	Just barely misses.
R�senfeld	23 damage was kind of insane
Drumun	barely?
Drufle (GM)	Your AGI is 11.
Drumun	is this vrs agi? oh okay
Drufle (GM)	Yeah, magic usually goes against AGI, not DEF. Anyway! Player slow turns!
R�senfeld	woosh! stabilsie roy
Drumun	go russ heal the roy
R�senfeld	wait
Drufle (GM)	Roy wakes up, sputtering a bit.
R�senfeld	if i cast a heal does that work betteR?
Drufle (GM)	I mean, yeah. Maybe?
R�senfeld	oh ok derp
Drufle (GM)	Can you heal more than her rate?
Drumun	does healing stabilize?
Drufle (GM)	It would, yeah.
R�senfeld	no fuck it
Drumun	also yeah that's a good question
R�senfeld	stabiliise
Drufle (GM)	But if you can't heal more than her rate just stabilize her.
R�senfeld	i only have half-rate spells
Drufle (GM)	Roy lives! Was Ruse the only one going slow? I think he was.
Rose	"joy to the world, the lord hath come... eugh."
Drumun	looks like it
Drufle (GM)	Well then, end of the round!
R�senfeld	"Easy, child, we will get out of this yet."
Drufle (GM)	Go ahead and explode, Wari.

Drumun	he's all alone now
Drufle (GM)	Just into a couple of single ones. It's d6 fomors, and I rolled a 1! So your explosion killed everyone but thsi guy.
Drumun	I feel like he's not sticking around
Drufle (GM)	Top of the round! Who's going fast?
Drumun	fast turn! Wari 's invisible shockwave of rage leaves but one ragged survivor
Rose	rose is fast!
R�senfeld	i'm fast too go ahead
Drumun	did the music stop again? right so
R�senfeld	not for me
Drumun	get your prayer ready
R�senfeld	i'm waaay too ffar
Drumun	oh right

Rose	ok can I arc my shot over the rock?
Drumun	I use a T-action to take a step forward
Drufle (GM)	To hit who? That fomor?

Rose	the one next to wari
Drufle (GM)	Sure, take 1 bane for that.
R�senfeld	i'm praying for you irl maybe that'll help
Rose	rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 10 )+2+() = 12

Drumun	double strike! 2 banes right?
Drufle (GM)	Yes. Roll with just your primary weapon.

Drumun	since this is successful I'll also expend my Qi to do a Qi strike rolling 2d6 + 2 ( 5 + 1 )+2 = 8 rolling 3d6 ( 3 + 6 + 5 ) = 14 first is sword, second is qi punch
Drufle (GM)	Boy, he is all kinds of dead.
R�senfeld	damn i wanted to fire at him with a divine smite that expends reelation Drumun delivers a powerful strike and punches the voidwalker's head off
