Last time, our Assholes decided to dive into a boiling ocean, and were immediately attacked by baby Cthulu. Let's watch them die!
The Evil Saga! ~ Chapter 13: The Lovely Hugging Monster!!
The Drufle: Oh, here.
The Drufle: Let me actually begin.
The Drufle: Seishi: make one more check.
Seishi Honekawa:
Knowledge Planes Check
At-Will • Int
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + KnowledgePlanes + IntBonus = 11 + 4 + 1 = 16 »
The Drufle: Wait, crap.
Seishi Honekawa: look at those jerks at the front of the 60 ft long cart
The Drufle: I can't access these guy's hp can I.
Seishi Honekawa: what
Veilwar: Lost 3 HP!
23 / 26 HP remaining...
The Drufle: Phew.
The Drufle: That still works.
Veilwar: Gained 3 HP!
26 / 26 HP remaining...
The Drufle: So, somehow.
The Drufle: I've actually gotten the macros to work.
Veilwar: Gained 4 HP!
30 / 30 HP remaining...
The Drufle: I'm just updating their hp at the moment.
Hina Takahashi: Gained 10 HP!
51 / 51 HP remaining...
The Drufle: So much hp.
The Drufle: Alright, I think we're all good.
The Drufle: So!
Seishi Honekawa: so much hp
Bernard Blackbrass: Hm.
The Drufle: Last time, the party decided to travel across the Boiling Sea.
Bernard Blackbrass: And i'm still level 3.
The Drufle: Then, a horrible Shoggti entered!
The Drufle: Speaking of which, Seishi.
The Drufle: What do you want to know?
Seishi Honekawa: man so many things
Seishi Honekawa: um
Ezra: what is love
Ezra: ask that
Seishi Honekawa: let's have a short description of qlippoths
The Drufle: Alright, some knowledge of qlippoths.
Seishi Honekawa: then let's go straight to its weaknesses
Seishi Honekawa: or lack thereof
The Drufle: Qlippoths are some of the few creatures that demons dare to face.
Bernard Blackbrass: -You know something? I was thinking of poisoning it.-
The Drufle: They are horrific beings of pure chaos, whose only desire is to destroy everything.
Seishi Honekawa: get in line, qlippoths
The Drufle: They arise from the bowels of the Abyss, somewhere far away.
The Drufle: Alright, weaknesses.
The Drufle: And resistances.
The Drufle: Note: I have reduced some of the resistances.
The Drufle: Mostly because otherwise this thing would never die.
Ezra: This one is the skinny one everyone picks last for Blitzball
Bernard Blackbrass: :/
The Drufle: Shoggti are immune to poison, cold, and any mind-affecting abilities.
Ezra: what else would they play down here
Seishi Honekawa: pretend i said all that
Ezra: little do they know that this guy is actually Tidus
The Drufle: They do not have any weaknesses.
Ezra: we're FUCKed
Seishi Honekawa: fuckin sableye
* You roll to yourself: d20+7 => 10 + 7 = 17
The Drufle: Alright, let's roll some initiative!
The Drufle: Unless anyone would care to talk to it.
Bernard Blackbrass: -Okay, no poison then.-
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+5 => 6 + 5 = 11
Ezra: i'm hidden so i aint speaking to it
Seishi Honekawa:
Initiative Check
Initiative Roll: « d20 + Initiative = 15 + 0 = 15 »
Ezra: can we establish that i am in fact completely hidden
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey! Get out of my boat and into my belly!"
Ezra: i rolled it last session
Ezra: it was like, 34
Seishi Honekawa: yes just delete your pog
The Drufle: Yes, you are absolutely hidden.
Bernard Blackbrass: Can we establish the fact that I hate this Abyss native?
The Drufle: Oh, of course.
Hina Takahashi has received initiative.
Ezra: can we establish the romantic storyline that is forming between Duck and Urtar?
The Drufle: Oh, right.
The Drufle: Need to roll Hina and Veilwar.
Veilwar:
Initiative Check
Initiative Roll: « d20 + Initiative = 17 + 3 = 20 »
Hina Takahashi:

Initiative Roll: « d20 + Initiative = 3 + 2 = 5 »
The Drufle: Aw.
The Drufle: Poor Hina.
Bernard Blackbrass:
Initiative Check
Initiative Roll: « d20 + Initiative = 10 + 0 = 10 »
Ezra: If this thing resists fire Veil won't be doing much damage will he
Seishi Honekawa: did you know everyone who hasnt attacked yet is flat footed on the firrst round
Seishi Honekawa: i did not know that
Hina Takahashi has received initiative.
Veilwar has received initiative.
The Drufle: It has no resistances.
Ezra: you did know that because you just said it!
The Drufle: Only immunities.
Bernard Blackbrass: Could I have started with chains first off?
Bernard Blackbrass: Not like I wasn't aware of it.
The Drufle: Alright, Veil is up first.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+7 => 8 + 7 = 15
The Drufle: He moves back a bit and throws a bomb.
The Drufle: He totally whiffs.
* The Drufle rolls: d8 => 1
The Drufle: Of course, it still gets hit with splash damage.
The Drufle: Which is uh
Seishi Honekawa: 1 damage
The Drufle: 7 damage.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Uh, little guy? Our stuff."
Seishi Honekawa: ;-;
* You roll to yourself: 7d10+42 => 34 + 42 = 76
Ezra: our stuff is canonically in the corner over there
Ezra: and nowhere else
Bernard Blackbrass: (no it isn't)
Veilwar: "Explosives always help! kekeke"
Ezra: if he attacks that corner, it moves to the other corner
Bernard Blackbrass: No, it isn't.
Ezra: You're WRONG
Ezra: !!
The Drufle: But yes, the shoggti is hurt for 7 damage.
The Drufle: It squirms a bit.
The Drufle: Speaking of which, it's the qlippoth's turn!
The Drufle: Ooh boy.
Seishi Honekawa: oh god im not ready
Seishi Honekawa: what do i do
Bernard Blackbrass: -Listen to me Seishi.0
Bernard Blackbrass: -What can you cast to shock it?-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Maybe knock it down.-
Seishi Honekawa: -Nothing!-
Seishi Honekawa: -It cannot feel fear-
The Drufle: It slithers towards Seishi.
Bernard Blackbrass: -No I mean zap it... look out!-
Seishi Honekawa: o-o
The Drufle: Do any of you know Abyssal?
The Drufle: I forget.
Bernard Blackbrass: I might.
Seishi Honekawa: (clerics dont get shit)
Ezra: I do.
The Drufle: I'm sure like 2 of you do.
Seishi Honekawa: come at me bro
The Drufle: It tries to grab Seishi with a tentacle.

Seishi Honekawa: oh
The Drufle: ?
Seishi Honekawa: i have a shield
The Drufle: Oh, is it wrong?
Ezra: well fix it!!
Seishi Honekawa: but yeah my touch ac is 10
The Drufle: You should change your sheet to inform me.
The Drufle: It isn't a touch ac if he's just grabbing you is it?
The Drufle: Oh wait, this is a bite attack.
The Drufle: I misread that.
The Drufle: Yeah, the shoggti is gonna try and bite Seishi.
The Drufle: So I guess that misses?
Bernard Blackbrass: That totally 'is' a touch attack, a grapple.
Ezra: A touch attack is something that needs only a single touch to do full damage
Ezra: Hence why it is much harder to dodge
The Drufle: Yeah, that's not really what this is.
Seishi Honekawa: well sneaky said
Seishi Honekawa: what defense *does* it use
Bernard Blackbrass: But, yeah
Bernard Blackbrass: some attacks grapple if they hit.
Bernard Blackbrass: That's not a touch attack, but they do damage and might grapple too.
The Drufle: Yeah.
Ezra: lets FUCKIN STAB it
The Drufle: So yeah, it misses.
Ezra: does this thing have an arse
Ezra: do your knowledge check seishi
The Drufle: It can't do anything else this turn.
Seishi Honekawa: that big hole there
Seishi Honekawa has received initiative.
Seishi Honekawa: drufle could you mark a tile where the 3rd level cleric scrolls are
The Drufle: Well
The Drufle: Alright.
Seishi Honekawa: man this internet is terrible i need to look up spells!
Seishi Honekawa: oh great
The Drufle: There, that's them.
The Drufle: All the scrolls are near the back!
Seishi Honekawa: wait how big is this thing's reach
The Drufle: 10 feet.
Seishi Honekawa: aah i cant move
The Drufle: For tentacles.
Bernard Blackbrass: Where are our rocks?
Seishi Honekawa: ok i

Golurk has connected.
Seishi Honekawa: fuckin crap internet
The Drufle: Yup.
Ezra: who cares about rocks!!
Seishi Honekawa: -what do you think i should do-
Ezra: anything that could boost a will save maybe
Seishi Honekawa: -i can obtain a magic circle against chaos in that pile of scrolls-
Ezra: to like, +11
Seishi Honekawa: -it can help us resist its mind-affecting powers-
Seishi Honekawa: -that it's not using for some reason wink wink-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Can you jump there right now? I was going to entangle and it's gonna get messy.-
Ezra: i can possibly assist you with this
The Drufle: The shoggti turns to Seishi and glares at her.
Bernard Blackbrass: (Use -these-)
Ezra: get as close as you can and i can throw it the rest of the way?
The Drufle: Ezra, are you actually thinking?
The Drufle: Or is this ooc stuff?

The Drufle: Yes.
Bernard Blackbrass: You could just withdraw.
Seishi Honekawa: but *before* i cast invisibility
The Drufle: Ah.
The Drufle: Well, alright.
The Drufle: Also, the shoggti turns towards the crates.
Ezra: there's no turning in this!
Seishi Honekawa: actually wait i should end up one tile to the left
Seishi Honekawa: fuck i cant move
Ezra: so what he just turned away from everyone
Ezra: how rude
The Drufle: Well, he's looking for something.
Golurk is disconnected.
Golurk has connected.
The Drufle: Man, golurk has a terrible internet.
Ezra: that's absurd, there's nothing over here
Ezra: Did he actually roll perception btw
Golurk: im disconnecting on purpose
Golurk: because i cant move this pog
Bernard Blackbrass: Why is this moving so slowly.
Seishi Honekawa: hey drufle
Seishi Honekawa: that aoo please
Seishi Honekawa: so i cant turn invisible

Bernard Blackbrass: okay.
Ezra: is it my turn yet
Ezra has received initiative.
The Drufle: Yes,
Ezra: How frightening!
Bernard Blackbrass: -Don't attack it. You don't have advantage.-
Ezra: -I know what I'm doing.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -I know gal.-
Seishi Honekawa: -get me that scroll-
Ezra: I'm going to pop out and do a full attack.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+9 => 19 + 9 = 28
Ezra: I'll assume that hits
Bernard Blackbrass: What's your weapon's crit rate?
Ezra: ooh, thank you for reminding me
Ezra: that is a crit
Ezra: its 18-20
Ezra: so confirm that then
The Drufle: Yes.
The Drufle: 28 does hit.
Bernard Blackbrass: Roll it again.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+10 => 9 + 10 = 19
The Drufle: That does not hit.
Bernard Blackbrass: +1 for Anatomist.
Ezra: man, what is it's AC
Ezra: yeah i added that
Seishi Honekawa: but it still hits
Bernard Blackbrass: What's its flat-footed AC?

Seishi Honekawa: *you
Ezra: he's alive, let's kill ourselves
Seishi Honekawa: time to die
The Drufle: His ac is 21.
The Drufle: But his flat-footed is 18.
The Drufle: So I suppose that does hit.
Ezra: okay, how does a confirmed crit work
Seishi Honekawa: it dies
Ezra: i don't think i've actually landed one before
Seishi Honekawa: yay we win
Bernard Blackbrass: Doubled damage.
Ezra: my max is 9
Bernard Blackbrass: Depends on your modifier.
Bernard Blackbrass: No not max.
Ezra: my modifier is +3
Ezra: 1d6+3
The Drufle: No, your crit multiplier.
Ezra: oh
Ezra: x2
The Drufle: Roll damage twice.
The Drufle: Add the damage.
Bernard Blackbrass: Some weapons have x3 and x4
* Ezra rolls: 1d6+3 => 3 + 3 = 6
* Ezra rolls: 1d6+3 => 6 + 3 = 9
Seishi Honekawa: like guns
Ezra: that's 15
Bernard Blackbrass: And scythes for some stupid ass reason.
Ezra: what am i adding that too
The Drufle: Nothing.
The Drufle: That is your damage.
* Ezra rolls: 2d6 => 8
Bernard Blackbrass: Weren't you full-attacking? You probably had a second weapon.
The Drufle: Yes, now do your second weapon.
The Drufle: At -2.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+8 => 17 + 8 = 25
The Drufle: Geez.
The Drufle: Alright, that hits.
* Ezra rolls: 1d6+2 => 1 + 2 = 3
Ezra: add 1 fire damage as well
Seishi Honekawa: what about the sneak attack
* Ezra rolls: 2d6 => 6
The Drufle: Only one sneak attack.
The Drufle: That is never multiplied.
Ezra: i get two attacks
The Drufle: Does the sneak attack count twice?
Ezra: thats two sneaks
The Drufle: Well, alright.
Ezra: "Sorry about this, but I'm actually pretty hungry."
Bernard Blackbrass: Only one?
Bernard Blackbrass: Not from both weapons?
The Drufle: Ezra leaps from the shadows and plunges her swords into the shoggti's back, gouging it's flesh.
Ezra: 15+8+3+1+6
The Drufle: That was an absurd amount of damage.
The Drufle: What was that, 33?
Bernard Blackbrass: Well love it while you've got it.
Ezra: "(I'm not that sorry)"
Ezra: yeah 33
Seishi Honekawa: amazong
Bernard Blackbrass: That was one of the fewer things she could do that to.
The Drufle: I'm almost tempted to reinstate resistances.
Bernard Blackbrass: Fucking sand world.
Ezra: now I'm going to use Vanishing Trick
The Drufle: But no, I'll be nice.
The Drufle: You can't.
Bernard Blackbrass: We could do resistances.
The Drufle: Full-round action, you said.
Seishi Honekawa: dr 10/law
Ezra: It's a swift action though
Seishi Honekawa: mmm
The Drufle: Full attacks use all of your actions.
Bernard Blackbrass: Yes we could do that.
Ezra: do i still get that in a full action?
Seishi Honekawa: or was it 20
Ezra: oh, okay then
Bernard Blackbrass: 20 we cannot.
Ezra: and i assume no 5ft?
Bernard Blackbrass: 10 we can.
The Drufle: Nope.
Bernard Blackbrass: You can 5ft.
Ezra: woo
The Drufle: Oh, right.
The Drufle: It's one of those.
Bernard Blackbrass has received initiative.
The Drufle: Move if you want.
The Drufle: Brass' turn now.
Bernard Blackbrass: Right.
Bernard Blackbrass: In Abyssal, "Hold still!"
The Drufle: It glares at you.
* Bernard Blackbrass glares back.
Ezra: 'fuck you' it says back
Bernard Blackbrass: "You know how many glares I get growing up?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Just getting to this place?"
Ezra: who wouldn't glare at ganondorf
Bernard Blackbrass: "I'm going to save your eyes for my dessert."
* Bernard Blackbrass chains it up!
Ezra: is
Ezra: is he intimdating it
Bernard Blackbrass: I might be.
Seishi Honekawa: hey that thing didnt even make a check to grapple
The Drufle: In your mind, you hear "Your kind does not deserve to exist."
Seishi Honekawa: which it should've!
Bernard Blackbrass: The circle for it will just miss Veilwar.
The Drufle: Seishi: it doesn't have to on initial attacks.
The Drufle: It has to do grapple checks on it's next turn.
Seishi Honekawa: huh what i just read grab
Bernard Blackbrass: Wait, is Seishi not grabbed?
The Drufle: Off the monster page, Golurk.
The Drufle: Seishi is currently grabbed.
The Drufle: Not Ezra though.
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh well.
Ezra: it better not grab me!
Seishi Honekawa: no im not reading its entry im in universal monster rules
Ezra: i know a hecklawyer
The Drufle: Alright, I can roll a grapple check.
Ezra: not quite as good as the helllawyer but still
The Drufle: No, no.
The Drufle: Why are we doing this again.
Ezra: what the heck
Bernard Blackbrass: Did those show up?
Bernard Blackbrass: I hope not.
Bernard Blackbrass: I was just trying to plot chains.
The Drufle: I am aware, yes.
The Drufle: Those are still really annoying.
Bernard Blackbrass: It has to miss Veilwar and Ezra. Don't care about the zhyens. Otherwise, close off all that free space.
Bernard Blackbrass: It's great that it's large.
Seishi Honekawa: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/rules-for-monsters/universal-monster-rules#TOC-Grab-Ex-
Ezra: shit you've broke the chest
Ezra: the DUCK IS LOOSE
The Drufle: Well, fine.

Seishi Honekawa: if it doesnt want to be grappled itself
Seishi Honekawa: but yes it still hit
Seishi Honekawa: s

The Drufle: As long as it keeps as many of you as still as possible.
Seishi Honekawa: wow this is a dumb squid it has like all the mind control powers
Hina Takahashi has received initiative.
The Drufle: Sword murder time!
Bernard Blackbrass: Hey wait
Ezra: you deleted the scrolls too
Bernard Blackbrass: I'm not done.
Ezra: they were 2 squares to my left
Ezra: yeah thats it
Bernard Blackbrass: Did it get entangled, and if so, I expend psionic focus to flip it.
The Drufle: Oh, you aren't?
The Drufle: It rolls a will save right?
Bernard Blackbrass: Reflex.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+5 => 12 + 5 = 17
The Drufle: Is that good?
Bernard Blackbrass: I think mine is 17.
Bernard Blackbrass: Man that just missed.
The Drufle: Alright then.
The Drufle: Hina's turn?
The Drufle: CHARGE
Bernard Blackbrass: -May as well attack.-
Bernard Blackbrass: I'll try again next turn though!
* The Drufle rolls: d20+10 => 4 + 10 = 14
Bernard Blackbrass: It's onging.
The Drufle: Well, crap.
The Drufle: So much for that idea.
Bernard Blackbrass: -...Crap no.-
Hina Takahashi: -Well, that didn't turn out well.-
Ezra: -Hey guys how are doing back there-
The Drufle: As Hina charges the shoggti, she loses her balance and misses the beast.
Veilwar has received initiative.
Ezra: -I can't actually see over this giant squid-
The Drufle: BOMBS
Bernard Blackbrass: -All that debris trips you! It was too early.-
The Drufle: Alright, actually.
The Drufle: Veilwar is going to brew up a little potion and drink it.
The Drufle: His hands begin glowing a bit.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Veilwar no!"
The Drufle: Shoggti's turn.
The Drufle: Its eyes begin glowing brightly, and colors fill the room.
Ezra: I bet he's mad at me.
Ezra: roll a will save i say in a mocking tone
The Drufle: Everyone, will save.
Ezra: neener neener
Ezra: roll THIS
Veilwar:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 20 + 3 = 23 »
* Ezra rolls: 1d20-1 => 7 - 1 = 6
Hina Takahashi:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 20 + 0 = 20 »
Bernard Blackbrass: I look away.

Ezra: I'm CRAAZY
The Drufle: Did I just roll two 20s?
Ezra: fuck you guys
Ezra: stealin my 20s
The Drufle: Brass: Alright.
Seishi Honekawa: amazong
Ezra: actually this is better than hina failing i guess
Bernard Blackbrass:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 9 + 5 = 14 »
Bernard Blackbrass: Just in case.
Seishi Honekawa:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 10 + 8 = 18 »
The Drufle: Ezra is the only one who fails.
Ezra: looking away was even an option huh
Ezra: too late now
The Drufle: She is now fascinated!
The Drufle: She cannot take any actions until something tries to attack her.
Seishi Honekawa: wow so shiny
Ezra: "Those tentacles, I never noticed how shiny they were!"
Ezra: "Man, those are...those are fantastic."
Ezra: "Do you use conditioner?"
* Bernard Blackbrass mutters "Damn owls."
The Drufle: Also, let's try to keep a grip on Seishi.
* The Drufle rolls: 2d0+18 => Invalid expression: 2d0+18.
Ezra: "Oh right, sorry, the language barrier."
* The Drufle rolls: d20+18 => 5 + 18 = 23
The Drufle: Right, that hits.
* Bernard Blackbrass mutters translations.
The Drufle: Now let's attack Hina.
Ezra: "(Infernal)Do you use conditioner?"
* The Drufle rolls: d20+8 => 14 + 8 = 22
Bernard Blackbrass: "(Abyssal)She says she'll gut you."
* The Drufle rolls: 1d4+3 => 2 + 3 = 5

Seishi Honekawa: can i even do anything
The Drufle: You can make an escape artist check.
Seishi Honekawa:
Combat Maneuver (CMB)
CMB Roll: « d20 + CMB = 4 + 4 = 8 »
The Drufle: Or CMB.
Seishi Honekawa: nop
The Drufle: Or strength.
The Drufle: Not that, though.
The Drufle: That fails.
Ezra: omg escape artist really
Seishi Honekawa: can i stoll do a move action
The Drufle: You can cast things without somatic components.
Ezra: is that why you didn't grab me
The Drufle: No move actions.
The Drufle: Ezra: a little bit, yes.
Ezra: damn crafty squids
The Drufle: Seishi: you can cast spells since they don't require hand motions.
Seishi Honekawa: no i wont move ill make an illusion
Seishi Honekawa: isnt that like the complete opposite of how spells are cast
The Drufle: No?
Bernard Blackbrass: It depends on the spell.
The Drufle: You can cast spells if they only have verbal components.
The Drufle: If you're being grappled.
Bernard Blackbrass: And the tentacle didn't find your beak.
Ezra: bayonetta music started playing and now ezra and her shadow clones are dancing
The Drufle:
Ezra: tekton is also there
Seishi Honekawa: i already used that standard action to try to break
The Drufle: Correct.
The Drufle: Just making sure.
Ezra has received initiative.
The Drufle: Well, uh.
Ezra: "haha yeeeeah"
Ezra: did the squid respond to my question
The Drufle: Make a perception check.
The Drufle: It didn't, no.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+4 => 2 + 4 = 6
The Drufle: Wow.
The Drufle: Those are some shiny tentacles.

Ezra: lets be friends
The Drufle: Alright, BRass.
The Drufle: Brass.
Bernard Blackbrass: Right, I try and entangle it again since i've still got time left.
Bernard Blackbrass: Just it. I think I can do that.
Ezra: can someone throw a rock at me
Ezra: i think that could break the spell maybe
The Drufle: You can actually use a standard action to wake up Ezra.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Ezra! Snap out of it!"
Bernard Blackbrass: It's concentration.
Ezra: can one hte genies throw a rock at me
Bernard Blackbrass: However...
The Drufle: The zhyens are not doing anything.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Oret! Urtar! Snap Ezra out of it!"
The Drufle: They are much too frightened.
Ezra: they're only little
Ezra: thats okay
Bernard Blackbrass: Yeah. Concentrating too much.
Bernard Blackbrass: Entangle this bastard.
Ezra: perhaps DUCK is much more brave
Seishi Honekawa: duck is a duck archon a bringer of justice
The Drufle: So, reflex.

The Drufle: Hina suddenly falls limp, apparently.
Veilwar has received initiative.
Bernard Blackbrass: Hot.
Ezra: man technically she's not even that inaccurate
Ezra: she's just terrible at rolling
The Drufle: Yup.
The Drufle: Let's see what Veilwar does.
Seishi Honekawa: tasukete onegai
The Drufle: He runs up to the shoggti and taps it with his hands.

The Drufle: Whoo!
* The Drufle rolls: 4d6+5 => 16 + 5 = 21
The Drufle: Burn, burn!
Ezra: woah dude
Seishi Honekawa: does it died
The Drufle: Touch-based fire breath is pretty great.
The Drufle: No, but it is seriously hurting.
Bernard Blackbrass: We could have used that 10/Law
Bernard Blackbrass: not like it affects resistance.
Ezra: He's got the toooouch
Bernard Blackbrass: (Okay he could have.)
The Drufle: True.
The Drufle: But now it's the shoggti's turn.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+18 => 19 + 18 = 37

* The Drufle rolls: d20+18 => 11 + 18 = 29
Seishi Honekawa: stop the smacking it's inhumane
The Drufle: And Veilwar is grappled.
Bernard Blackbrass: He's the first guy to take damage right? Wrong?
* The Drufle rolls: 1d4+6 => 3 + 6 = 9
* The Drufle rolls: 1d4+6 => 4 + 6 = 10
Ezra: hey seishi see if you can spit on me
Seishi Honekawa: does it have constrict
Ezra: thats a kind of attack
Seishi Honekawa: Lost 9 HP!
29 / 42 HP remaining...
Seishi Honekawa: because constrict is auto damage per grappled turn
Seishi Honekawa: :}
Hina Takahashi: Lost 10 HP!
36 / 51 HP remaining...
The Drufle: It does have constrict!
Ezra: oh shit (tm)
The Drufle: That's the damage I just rolled.
Seishi Honekawa: amazong
Ezra: can't i get snapped out of it by nearby combat?
Seishi Honekawa: these grappling rules are the most confusing shit ever by the way
Seishi Honekawa: i have 3 pages open just to understand it
Seishi Honekawa has received initiative.
The Drufle: Ezra: no.
Ezra: veil's fire show just now is what i'd call nearby combat
The Drufle: Well.
The Drufle: Sure.
Brass is disconnected.
The Drufle: Oh, right.
The Drufle: Internet.
Ezra is disconnected.
Golurk is disconnected.
Ezra has connected.
The Drufle: Alright, one back.
Brass has connected.
The Drufle: Let's see if the others return.
Golurk has connected.
Ezra: reimpersionate your characters
The Drufle: Alright, that's 3.
The Drufle: Sorry about that, internet hiccup.
The Drufle: Seishi: it is your turn.
Ezra: sesh!! use plan bee
The Drufle: Also Ezra: give me a second about the fascinated thing.
The Drufle: Ok, yes.
The Drufle: You are actually free.
Seishi Honekawa: huh?
Ezra: fire is the cleanser
Seishi Honekawa: oh you mean her
The Drufle: Ezra, yes.
Seishi Honekawa: im not leaving this grapple any time soon
Seishi Honekawa: channel energy
The Drufle: Alright.
Seishi Honekawa: no aoo's
Ezra: is there anything we can do to free a person, btw
The Drufle: You could uh
The Drufle: Try and rend a tentacle?
The Drufle: I don't know if that works.
Ezra: sounds exciting
Bernard Blackbrass: -Ezra! Can you still cast? Grab a fire or electrical scroll!0
Bernard Blackbrass: It doesn't get sneak attack.
* Golurk rolls: 2d6 => 5
The Drufle: 5 damage?
Seishi Honekawa: oh wait i need to pick people to exclude
Seishi Honekawa: oh i can exclude everyone
Seishi Honekawa: even duck
Bernard Blackbrass: Remember! Striking limbs doesn't count for sneak attacks. Gotta be the body.
Ezra: So should I go for it?
Ezra: or go for the scrolls
Seishi Honekawa: -get communal protection from chaos-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Do we have that?-
Seishi Honekawa: yes
Seishi Honekawa: will save drufle
Ezra: Do I even have the DC to cast that
Bernard Blackbrass: -Oh. Uh, sweet.-
Ezra: I get +8 on my UMD
Bernard Blackbrass: -You can do it.-
* The Drufle rolls: d20+9 => 10 + 9 = 19
The Drufle: Does that save?
Seishi Honekawa: ...hyes
Seishi Honekawa: half again
The Drufle: Alright then.
The Drufle: So, 2?
Seishi Honekawa: this is terrible
Ezra: do i need to put myself somewhere special when i use this scroll
Seishi Honekawa: you have to not get reached
Seishi Honekawa: because it will take two actions that provoke aoos
Ezra: Drufle: do i need to be next to the tile or on it
The Drufle: For the scroll?
The Drufle: Just next to it.
Ezra: to get it yes
The Drufle: I would recommend being on it though.
Ezra: hmm
The Drufle: Because you're within reach if you're just next to it.
Seishi Honekawa:
Knowledge Arcana Check
At-Will • Int
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + KnowledgeArcana + IntBonus = 8 + 4 + 1 = 13 »

Ezra: e
Bernard Blackbrass: Telepathy is great.
Bernard Blackbrass: You don't have to worry about being choked.
Ezra: Okay I get magic circle
Ezra: could i possibly get more
Ezra: that'll probably take too long
Ezra: how long is this going to even take
Seishi Honekawa: forever
Ezra: so many inqueries
Seishi Honekawa: we'll be bloodstains
The Drufle: Move action to grab one.
Ezra: well, that's two actions
The Drufle: Yep.
* Bernard Blackbrass shouts "Cast it already!"
Seishi Honekawa: hide
The Drufle: Next turn, you can cast it.
Bernard Blackbrass: "...crap."
Ezra: I use vanish
The Drufle: Alright!
Ezra has received initiative.
Bernard Blackbrass has received initiative.
The Drufle: Brass, your turn.
Bernard Blackbrass: Ensnare!
Bernard Blackbrass: I'm not getting in there.
Bernard Blackbrass: I have too much INT for that.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+5 => 12 + 5 = 17
The Drufle: Still saves.
Bernard Blackbrass: What can I do with my move actions.
The Drufle: This shoggti is just too wiggly to get held by the chains.
Bernard Blackbrass: There is debris everywhere...
Bernard Blackbrass: All these scrolls and crap that's not where Ezra is, nothing gets him.
Bernard Blackbrass: Guy is fierce.
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh well, let's get the electric hammer out.
The Drufle: Alright, go ahead and attack.
Bernard Blackbrass: What, no.
Bernard Blackbrass: I'm just presenting the hammer for later. I still had to concentrate.
The Drufle: You're just pulling it out?
The Drufle: Alright.
Bernard Blackbrass: I just had a move action.
Hina Takahashi has received initiative.
Bernard Blackbrass: And the +6 goes to... hm, who can attack.
Bernard Blackbrass: Veilwar, with his little hands.
The Drufle: Alright, maybe she'll have a bit more strength.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+4 => 13 + 4 = 17
The Drufle: Nope.
The Drufle: This is against CMD, right?
The Drufle: Or is it something else.
Bernard Blackbrass: "See, a zombie would have been great now."
The Drufle: Well, whatever.
The Drufle: She isn't going anywhere.
Seishi Honekawa: -you'll get a zombie if we win-
* Bernard Blackbrass is speaking.
Bernard Blackbrass: "No no, this is lunch."
Veilwar has received initiative.
Seishi Honekawa: -you cant eat an outsider you idiot-
Bernard Blackbrass: "Burn it Veilwar!"
The Drufle: He's kinda grappled.
Seishi Honekawa: -they're not made of meat they're made of whatever they're from-
Seishi Honekawa: -this one is made of chaos-
Bernard Blackbrass: -What of the stories of my kind consuming the angels?-
* The Drufle rolls: d20+3 => 2 + 3 = 5
Seishi Honekawa: -you cannot and will not eat chaos-
The Drufle: Aw.
Ezra: Brass can eat chaos, he's totally metal.
The Drufle: Poor little guy is all stuck.
Bernard Blackbrass: Brass can eat rocks and lava and sand and ash and burned logs and diamond dust and ice and cinders.
The Drufle: Shoggti's turn!
Bernard Blackbrass: UM OM NOM NOM
Ezra: I'm in this scroll box
Ezra: just a pile of scrolls all around me
Bernard Blackbrass: Shit you better cast quick.
Ezra: havin a ball
Bernard Blackbrass: Those three non-tieflings are gonna die.
Ezra: we should be fantasy racists and not care
Seishi Honekawa: charm monster
Bernard Blackbrass: We already are.
Bernard Blackbrass: As players we care!
Bernard Blackbrass: As characters we are like Oreads.
The Drufle: Alright, here we go.
Bernard Blackbrass: (okay Brass probably needs chess opponents.)
Ezra: Man I want to just stab it's last HPs off
The Drufle: The shoggti looks into Brass' eyes and tells him to drop his hammer.
Ezra: I think it's pretty low
Seishi Honekawa: luckily, duck is a grand master
Bernard Blackbrass: I avert my eyes!
The Drufle: Yeah, no.
The Drufle: This is telepathic.
Seishi Honekawa: scrub move
Ezra: Hey can Deathwatch tell me if this thing is near death
Bernard Blackbrass:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 4 + 5 = 9 »
The Drufle: You drop your hammer to the ground.
Seishi Honekawa: that's like telling pikachu to dodge!
The Drufle: Ezra: no.
The Drufle: It tells you states of life.
The Drufle: Not relative conditions.
Ezra: "is dead, fragile (alive and wounded, with 3 or fewer hit points left), fighting off death (alive with 4 or more hit points), healthy, undead, or neither alive nor dead (such as a construct). "
The Drufle: Oh.
Seishi Honekawa: the horses have probably suffocated by now

Seishi Honekawa: probably not

Bernard Blackbrass: Only one of them would miss me.
Seishi Honekawa: amazing
Bernard Blackbrass: That one probably isn't too bright.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+9 => 7 + 9 = 16
The Drufle: That saves?
Seishi Honekawa: what is even the dc
Seishi Honekawa: its 16
Seishi Honekawa: ;[
The Drufle: Ah, it saves.
The Drufle: The shoggti isn't looking too great, but it's keeping a firm grasp on the three party members.
Ezra has received initiative.
Ezra: Ah geez what can I do here...
Ezra: Tell me guys should I just attack it
The Drufle: Well.
Seishi Honekawa: -you're our only hope at the moment it seems-
The Drufle: The last time you attacked, you did almost half its health.
Ezra: I can't do a full attack right now
Seishi Honekawa: yep
Ezra: But I could throw a shuriken
Bernard Blackbrass: And it's not like you'd sneak attack.
Ezra: that gets me a sneak attack
Bernard Blackbrass: If the chains ever took, sure.
Bernard Blackbrass: maybe
Seishi Honekawa: use a hero point
Ezra: I'm currently invisible
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh.
Ezra: so I would get the sneak attack
Seishi Honekawa: to get a shuriken to cut a tentacle
Bernard Blackbrass: Then yes, you would get a sneak attack.
Seishi Honekawa: somehow
Bernard Blackbrass: Yeah just full attack it.
The Drufle: Sure, go ahead.
Ezra: Full attack?
Bernard Blackbrass: Can you do that? You've got TWF.
Seishi Honekawa: -didnt it look like it was looking for something earlier?-
Bernard Blackbrass: You're using thrown weapons.
Ezra: Oh, yeah, could I do that?
Bernard Blackbrass: -You think we're gonna let it have it?-
Ezra: I think it was looking for ninjas
Bernard Blackbrass: -It was probably Ezra.-
Seishi Honekawa: -0h-
The Drufle: So, attack?
The Drufle: You should roll if you're going to attack.
Ezra: Hey, maybe I could throw two tranqs?
Ezra: .:}
Seishi Honekawa: immune to poison
Ezra: boo!
Ezra: drufle knew what to pick apparently
Ezra: Okay, double stars
The Drufle: Also, he has an immense fort save.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+8 => 10 + 8 = 18
Ezra: miss right
The Drufle: Is that flat-footed or touch or anything?
Ezra: well he can't see me
Ezra: so is that flat footed?

* Ezra rolls: 1d2+2 => 1 + 2 = 3
* Ezra rolls: 2d6 => 5
Ezra: 8 for the first
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+8 => 1 + 8 = 9

The Drufle: Well, alright.
Ezra: I'm going to duck back into this cart
Ezra: (and not look at it)
Ezra: this crate*
The Drufle: The shoggti is looking really bad right now.
Bernard Blackbrass has received initiative.
Ezra: (yes i actually jumped right into the crate)
Ezra: (i am a child)
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh right. I have Thought Shield.
Ezra: Kill it! Gank it!
Seishi Honekawa: solid owl
Ezra: Go for its eyes!
Ezra: is it below 3 hp then
Bernard Blackbrass: Pick up hammer.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yeah! You hate this huh?"
The Drufle: Ezra: no.
Bernard Blackbrass: Entangle.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+5 => 4 + 5 = 9
The Drufle: Whelp.
Bernard Blackbrass: Expend focus, trip it.
Bernard Blackbrass: Roll save against that.
Bernard Blackbrass: Same DC.
The Drufle: Does it get a cmd save?
Bernard Blackbrass: Look up Toppling Power.
The Drufle: Or just reflex?
Seishi Honekawa: link it
Bernard Blackbrass: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/psionics-unleashed/feats/toppling-power-metapsionic
The Drufle: Oh.
The Drufle: Huh
The Drufle: Wait no, you have to make a trip check against it.
Bernard Blackbrass: What's the nearest metal weapon...
Bernard Blackbrass: Is it a shuriken?
Seishi Honekawa: yours
Ezra: Lodged into it i'd imagine
The Drufle: It would be one of Hina's weapons, I believe.
Bernard Blackbrass: Damn.
Bernard Blackbrass: She's not gonna like that.
Bernard Blackbrass: OH WELL!
Ezra: nooo
Ezra: don't mister
Ezra: she has no other weapon does she
Bernard Blackbrass: Ezra is telling me not to.
Ezra: wait no she does i think
The Drufle: She has two longswords and a lance.
Ezra: christ um
The Drufle: One longsword is pretty powerful.
Bernard Blackbrass: Finally
Ezra: what does this do anyway
Bernard Blackbrass: make sure this creature doesn't have 'can't be tripped'.
The Drufle: +10 to CMB or CMD.
The Drufle: It can be tripped, it just has a higher CMD against trip checks.
Bernard Blackbrass: I'll risk it.
Ezra: if you make it explode won't it just hit hina
Bernard Blackbrass: And not use the card.
The Drufle: Alright.
* Brass rolls: 1d20+8 => 3 + 8 = 11
The Drufle: Not even close.
Bernard Blackbrass: Just as well.
Hina Takahashi has received initiative.
The Drufle: Let's see here...
Bernard Blackbrass: Ezra will get the +6.
Seishi Honekawa: squirm
Ezra: Bite it hina!
Bernard Blackbrass: I notice Veilwar hasn't tried to attack.
Bernard Blackbrass: Did he run out of fire?
The Drufle: No, he's been trying to escape.
Bernard Blackbrass: (it's still entangled though!)
Ezra: He can't do that while caught i think
The Drufle: He's grappled at the moment.
The Drufle: You know, screw this.
The Drufle: Let's just use a one-handed sword.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+9 => 5 + 9 = 14
The Drufle: Oh.

* The Drufle rolls: d20+9 => 2 + 9 = 11
The Drufle: Geez guys.

The Drufle: Never leaving the qlippoth's hands.
Seishi Honekawa: are they tryng to break free
Bernard Blackbrass: who is a Cambridge scientist
The Drufle: Veilwar was, yeah.
The Drufle: He can't do anything while grappled.
The Drufle: Alright, the shoggti is gonna try and hit Seishi with one of its pincers.
* The Drufle rolls: d20+8 => 8 + 8 = 16
Seishi Honekawa: that thing is just asking for a zombie-ing
The Drufle: Good, that hits.
* The Drufle rolls: d4 => 1
Ezra: his ac is 17?
The Drufle: This is a touch attack.

Bernard Blackbrass: You had to have them all run into melee.
* Golurk rolls: 2d6 => 5
The Drufle: Hina can't do anything at ranged, and Veilwar's most powerful abilities are touch attacks.
Seishi Honekawa: heal
Seishi Honekawa: Gained 5 HP!
17 / 42 HP remaining...
You are bloodied!
Ezra: Well, they don't have players so we can't fault Drufle for how they might act :B
Bernard Blackbrass: I know I said "may as well" but that was kind of a 'you were going to anyway' thing.
The Drufle: Yeah, pretty much.
Bernard Blackbrass: I wanted her to wait until the entanglement.
Ezra: maybe we should be controlling them or something
Ezra: but anyway
The Drufle: Is that all Seishi?
Ezra: whats happening
Seishi Honekawa: it's an aoe
Seishi Honekawa: cmon
The Drufle: Oh, who else gets it then?

The Drufle: I did the damage to you.
The Drufle: I did not, in fact, forget.
Seishi Honekawa: oh
Ezra: hmm
Seishi Honekawa: this chat moves so fast
The Drufle: Ezra: see if you can kill this thing before it throttles your friends.
Seishi Honekawa: golurk has taken 50 wisdom damage
Ezra: does brass's +5 apply to both attacks
Ezra: or just the one
Bernard Blackbrass: One.
Bernard Blackbrass: And it's +6

Ezra: It's all thanks, to +6
The Drufle: You just sank a shuriken into the qlippoth's eye, and straight out the back.
Seishi Honekawa: ew
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh come on!!!
Bernard Blackbrass: I was gonna save those!
The Drufle: Its grip on the three party members loosens, and it falls to the ground dead.
Bernard Blackbrass: For spell components.
Ezra: it's got like, 15
Ezra: probably
Bernard Blackbrass: "No... what have you done!?"
Seishi Honekawa: ACK
Bernard Blackbrass: "Aaaugh!"
Seishi Honekawa: oh wait i cant move again
Ezra: All thanks to you, Brass
Golurk is disconnected.
Bernard Blackbrass: "This is my fault!"
Ezra: "Is it actually dead?"
Golurk has connected.
Hina Takahashi: "Well, that was awful."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I needed those eyes!"
* Bernard Blackbrass scoops up whatever eyes he can find, cutting them out with a thoqqua money knife.
* Bernard Blackbrass is always crafting weapons.
Ezra: "We should get the horses moving again."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yeah whatever."
Golurk: "..."
The Drufle: You only manage to remove a few eyes before a rift appears in the cart and the shoggti vanishes.
Golurk: nooo
* Bernard Blackbrass is trying to cut the creature apart.
Ezra: it suddenly vanishes
Ezra: o no
Bernard Blackbrass: "..."
Hina Takahashi: "Should we be worried about that?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yes."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yes we should."
Bernard Blackbrass: "It means I don't get to eat it. Plus it might not be dead."
Bernard Blackbrass: "But I got the bastard's eyes."
Ezra: "Let's go, we're still actually under the water."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yeah that."
Ezra: "Drink up some potions and let's go."
The Drufle: The gemsteeds, while spooked from the attack, seem otherwise fine.
The Drufle: The wagon begins moving once more.
* Bernard Blackbrass regains psionic focus!
Bernard Blackbrass: "It's gone, you three."
Golurk: potion potion potion potion
The Drufle: Yes, the trip seems to have dulled down a bit.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Everyone, remain on watch. That thing might come back."
The Drufle: Various other sea beasts swim around the cart, but are deliberately avoiding the wagon.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Then we break it into chunks and eat it!"
Seishi Honekawa: heal me up
* Bernard Blackbrass grits his teeth.
Seishi Honekawa: scotty
Ezra: "Do you think Majri is in control of everything in this sea?"
Bernard Blackbrass: You are a cleric.
Ezra: "What kind of wizard is he?"
Seishi Honekawa: no i mean my hp
Seishi Honekawa: i drank potion
Bernard Blackbrass: I roll a Craft (Weapons) check to jury-rig the stolen gun to a lance.
The Drufle: Roll the die, Seishi.
Bernard Blackbrass: remember? The lance from the temple?
Bernard Blackbrass: I wanna spear something.
Seishi Honekawa: what was it again
The Drufle: They weren't lances so much as thin javelins.
Bernard Blackbrass: Even better.
The Drufle: Seishi: which potion did you drink?
The Drufle: Minor, normal, or serious?
The Drufle: Orrrrrrr
Seishi Honekawa: the normal one
The Drufle: 2d6+5
The Drufle: 2d8 worry
The Drufle: sorry
Seishi Honekawa: « 2d8+5 = 13 + 5 = 18 »
The Drufle: Nice.

Seishi Honekawa: fuck this was embarrassing im getting more scrolls
The Drufle: Good idea.
Ezra: i put magic circle back btw
The Drufle: Alright.

The Drufle: Does anyone want to use perception or something else, or are we just going to lay back until arrival?
Seishi Honekawa:

Seishi Honekawa: Gained 18 HP!
35 / 42 HP remaining...
The Drufle: None of you seem to see much outside of the windows.
The Drufle: Not because of the bubbles, though.
The Drufle: At this point, there are hardly any bubbles at all.
Bernard Blackbrass: For some reason, Brass looks below and above him, at the floor and ceiling.
The Drufle: No fish, no creatures, no movement.
Seishi Honekawa: I'm casting read magic as i take them
The Drufle: Alright
Bernard Blackbrass: "Okay, team."
Ezra: Im just sharpening weapons and stuff
Bernard Blackbrass: "I know it took a while, but you guys need to not run into melee until we restrain them."
* Bernard Blackbrass turns to Hina.
Hina Takahashi: "In my defense, I usually don't trip that much."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I know. We can blame the debris."
Seishi Honekawa: "For the record I didn't run into it, it appeared right next to me."
Ezra: "This cart is quite a mess."
Bernard Blackbrass: "And Seishi, it chased you."
Ezra: "I blame Veilwar."
Ezra: "He's so messy."
Bernard Blackbrass: "No, don't blame little guy either. He hurt the damn thing."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Just... all of you hang back. We can afford that. Sometimes."
The Drufle: Veilwar isn't talking at the moment.
The Drufle: He's just walking in circles, staring at the floor.
* Bernard Blackbrass turns behind him, eyes sweeping across the Deepboat.
Ezra: "Is he alright?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "No one dead right?"
Ezra: "Veil."
Ezra: well i'm gonna make him drink a normal potion anyway
The Drufle: Alright.
The Drufle: He yanks the potion out of Ezra's hand, chugs it, and throws it to the floor.
The Drufle: He continues pacing.
* The Drufle rolls: 2d8+5 => 11 + 5 = 16
Ezra: "See? So messy!"
Veilwar: Gained 16 HP!
29 / 30 HP remaining...
Ezra: "Someone craft a broom would they?"
The Drufle: You could, sure.
The Drufle: The zhyens are rushing around, trying to clean up the huge mess.
Bernard Blackbrass: "All right everyone!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We took down a horrific foe, and we'll have many more!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "I don't know about you but this is a pretty damn weird place to die in, and I won't have it."
* Bernard Blackbrass stands up.
Hina Takahashi: "I agree. Let's try and finish this before anyone gets seriously hurt."
The Drufle: Suddenly, you feel a shift in gravity as the cart begins tilting backwards.
Bernard Blackbrass: ...
Ezra: "We're going up."
The Drufle: The gemsteeds plow their way through the thickening dirt, working up the bank.
The Drufle: They breach the water's surface, once again in the air.
The Drufle: Eventually, you are back on dry land.
The Drufle: The trip across the Boiling Sea has ended.
Ezra: "That sure was an experience."
Hina Takahashi: "Let's hope we only have to do that one more time, tops."
Ezra: "Oh right, we have to go back."
The Drufle: The gemsteeds halt, and the wagon grinds to a stop.
The Drufle: They seem to have reached their commanded destination.
* Bernard Blackbrass tries to climb out of the cart.
Seishi Honekawa: this looks exactly like the other side
Seishi Honekawa: uncanny
Bernard Blackbrass: "Lemme collect some of that mud."
The Drufle: This isn't mud.
The Drufle: At all.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+4 => 5 + 4 = 9
The Drufle: It is cracked, rock-hard dirt.
Ezra: whats around
Bernard Blackbrass: Whatever the dirt under that water was.
Bernard Blackbrass: I'm going to scoop it out.
The Drufle: From the Boiling Sea?
Bernard Blackbrass: Yes.
The Drufle: uh
Ezra: But it's BOILING~~
The Drufle: So you're going to walk right back into the boiling water to grab some mud?
Bernard Blackbrass: Hell no. I psion it out.
Bernard Blackbrass: I use Entangling Debris to scoop it out.
Bernard Blackbrass: With something to wheelbarrow it back.
The Drufle: Ah.
The Drufle: Well, alright.
The Drufle: Suit yourself.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Aw right!"
The Drufle: Ezra: well, as for your perception.
The Drufle: There is a big-ass ruby temple in front of you.
The Drufle: There we go.
Seishi Honekawa: it's so red
The Drufle: No, it is not horribly hot out here.
Seishi Honekawa: and yellow
The Drufle: Odd, isn't it.
The Drufle: Shut up, I can't find my tiles.
The Drufle: Also none of them were appropriate anyway.
Ezra: "There it is..."
Ezra: "Should we wait for a welcome?"
Ezra: have doorbells been invented yet
The Drufle: No.
The Drufle: However, fire elementals have.
Ezra: I'm going to ring the doorbell
The Drufle: Two large fire elementals rise up from the vents in the ground.
Ezra: "Hello there!"
The Drufle: They glare at the party.
Seishi Honekawa: who can speak fire
Ezra: "We mean you no harm!"
Ezra: can i speak fire
The Drufle: Brass can.
The Drufle: I think only he can, actually.
Seishi Honekawa:

The Drufle: Look! Fire elementals!
Ezra: -Ask them for Majri.-
Seishi Honekawa: i rolled a 1 didnt i
The Drufle: They hover over the solid ruby stairs, seeming to wait for a response.
The Drufle: No, but it was close enough.
Seishi Honekawa: "Show them the mask?"
Ezra: "They'll probably just take it off us."
Ezra: "I'd like to show Majri it myself."
Bernard Blackbrass: (Ignan) "Hello!"
The Drufle: They suddenly turn to Brass.
Seishi Honekawa: Hell-o
The Drufle: The one on the right grumbles out some sort of welcome.
The Drufle: It asks what you want.
Seishi Honekawa: are they wearing flaming maid outfits
Bernard Blackbrass: "Before we state our business, might I share with you a few choice excerpts? We have time."
The Drufle: No, they look like large pillars of fire.
* Bernard Blackbrass flips out his Stolen Book.
Seishi Honekawa: damnit
Bernard Blackbrass: (that's probably a +2 on the check or something)
Ezra: Stolen book??
Bernard Blackbrass: I took the Ignan book from Arali's library.
Bernard Blackbrass: And now I read a random interesting page.
FireButler 1: "What excerpts do you offer, hellish one?"
Bernard Blackbrass: (What /is/ in this book. I read what interests... me I guess.)
The Drufle: Very well.
Seishi Honekawa: the one on the right should be Hellizabeth
Ezra: (brb)
The Drufle: What you read is a page covered in various research on ignan runes, and interactions between fire and planar artifacts.
Bernard Blackbrass:
Perform Check
At-Will • Cha
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + Perform + ChaBonus = 9 + 4 + 2 = 15 »
The Drufle: The fire butlers seem very intrigued.
The Drufle: They come closer, and stare at the book.
Seishi Honekawa: ah fuck brb
FireButler 1: "Interesting information."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Caution. Fire."
FireButler 1: "Where have you gained such?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "But yes isn't it?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We bring this from far off. It was procured after great cost from a Suli wizard."
The Drufle: At the mention of a suli wizard, the fire butlers pull back.
FireButler 1: "Come."
FireButler 1: "You are to meet master immediately."
Ezra: "Oh good, are we getting in?"
* Bernard Blackbrass sticks a bookmark and them flips the book shut.
* Bernard Blackbrass tucks it under his arm and stately leads the other four in.
The Drufle: They phase through the giant ruby doors, and shortly after they swing open with a loud creak.
The Drufle: Inside is a grand hallway with many rooms to the sides.
The Drufle: Everything is made of various gems.
The Drufle: Topaz, tourmaline, citrine.
The Drufle: But especially ruby.
The Drufle: Whoever made this place was either exceptionally rich, or kinda crazy.
The Drufle: The fire butlers continue through the hallway, leading you towards a massive double door.
* Bernard Blackbrass seems oddly disinterested in all of the gems.
The Drufle: It reaches almost 100 feet tall, covered with ornate markings.
The Drufle: The fire butlers fly up and over some of the markings, and the door opens.
The Drufle: Inside is a beautiful throne room, with lavish tapestries and chandeliers coating the room.
Ezra: "That's like, the third fanciest door I've seen."
Ezra: "Is that him?"
Bernard Blackbrass: Look it's a face.
The Drufle: On the far end is a massive throne, almost as tall as the doors you walked through.
Bernard Blackbrass: Brass is the nose.
The Drufle: It is gold, citrine, zircon.
The Drufle: It has trophies strewn across it, like a hunter's lounge.
Seishi Honekawa: back
The Drufle: Dragon skulls, giant beards, phylacteries.
Ezra: Wait beards??
The Drufle: On the throne itself sits a fairly tall man.
The Drufle: He is wearing a long, red and gold-encrusted robe.
Seishi Honekawa: giant bears
The Drufle: He is sitting, bored, on the throne while playing with some fireballs.
The Drufle: As you walk closer, he doesn't seem to even notice you.
Ezra: "Hey, fire dude."
The Drufle: Brass, being close enough now.
The Drufle: Notices that this dude has a crapton of jewelry.
Seishi Honekawa: fire dude
The Drufle: He is wearing tons of rings made of various metals and jewels.
The Drufle: A few necklaces as well.
Seishi Honekawa: who has knowledge nobility
Ezra: that's crazy, everyone knows you can only wear 2 rings
The Drufle: On his chest is an ornate brooch with a ruby the size of an egg.
Ezra: actually I do
Seishi Honekawa:

The Drufle: For?
Ezra: the first and only

The Drufle: Brass actually feels a bit hot this close to him.
Bernard Blackbrass:

The Drufle: As if he simply exudes heat.
The Drufle: He has no psionic powers that you are aware of.
Bernard Blackbrass: are you saying he's gay
Ezra: Has he noticed us yet?
* Bernard Blackbrass says nothing.
The Drufle: He glances at you for a moment, then returns to ignoring you.
Ezra: Okay so
The Drufle: Ezra feels really hot.
* Bernard Blackbrass takes one more step forward (not even five feet) and opens the book once more.
The Drufle: You should step back.
Seishi Honekawa: -Why did we come here again-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Who are you.0
The Drufle: Telepathically?
Bernard Blackbrass: To Seishi.
The Drufle: Uh.
Ezra: Are those fire guys talking to him or something
The Drufle: Ok.
The Drufle: The fire butlers are whispering to him, yes.
Ezra: maybe i should just show him the mask already
The Drufle: As the butlers finish their conversation, his eyes light up.
The Drufle: He swings his legs off the throne and stands up.
The Drufle: You notice now that he is actually pretty tall.
* Bernard Blackbrass looks dignified like a composer waiting on his musicians, a Fuhrer before a crowd.
Seishi Honekawa: literally hitler
Fireman: "Well, well."
Fireman: "Some company, after all these lonely centuries."
Fireman: "I trust your journey was comfortable?"
Ezra: "Wet."
Bernard Blackbrass: "..."
Seishi Honekawa: "Wild."
Fireman: "Of course, yes."
Fireman: "Rather silly of you to go through the Boiling Seas."
Ezra: "Was there an easier way?"
Seishi Honekawa: inb4 there was like a bridge right there
Bernard Blackbrass: "We are not slowed down by the fears of mortals."
Fireman: "Oh yes, yes, many ways."
Fireman: "None of which were available to you, however."
Fireman: "Very unfortunate indeed."
Seishi Honekawa: caw
Bernard Blackbrass: (Belay that.)
Ezra: "You are Majri, then."
Seishi Honekawa: i should've brought duck
Fireman: "My, you know my name?"
Majri: "Impressive."
Ezra: "A few times, actually."
Majri: "I've been told by my servants that you have spoken to one of my kind, yes?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "..."
Majri: "Quiet one, that tiefling boy."
Ezra: "From the Sand King, and « what was her name = Invalid expression: what was her name. »"
Ezra: arali
Ezra: that was it
* Majri frowns at the mention of Arali.
Majri: "Is that so? I have not spoken to her in quite some time."
Majri: "I was expecting correspondence from her any decade now, in fact."
Seishi Honekawa: must be one hell of a breakup
Majri: "May I ask what you have come to me for, before I decide you aren't worth my time?"
* Bernard Blackbrass wears a rather stern, grave expression at perhaps the only one to not glare at him in so long.
Ezra: I'll take out the mask now.
Ezra: "This."
The Drufle: Majri's eyes open wide and glow bright red.
The Drufle: He turns away and mumbles something to himself.
* You roll to yourself: d20+7 => 7 + 7 = 14
The Drufle: After what seems like a few minutes, he turns back, his eyes normal.
Bernard Blackbrass: "...?"
Ezra: "Oh good, you do know about it."
Majri: "That is indeed quite an interesting piece you have there."
Majri: "I must say, I have heard quite a lot about it."
* Seishi Honekawa still doesn't understand what's going on.
Majri: "Quite a lot indeed."
Majri: "Was Arali the one who gave it to you?"
Ezra: "We found it in her temple, yes."
Majri: "Yes, yes, right."
The Drufle: As he speaks, his eyes never seem to leave the mask, almost entranced by it.
Ezra: I move it up and down
Ezra: hehehehe
The Drufle: His eyes follow it.
Ezra: he's like a cat
Ezra: okay i stop
Bernard Blackbrass: -Ezra... caution.-
Majri: "I'm sure you have many questions about that mask."
Majri: "Many indeed."
Ezra: "We need to complete it."
Majri: "Oh, I am well aware of that, young girl."
Seishi Honekawa: to rescue the princess
Majri: "Trust me, you do not have the power to complete the mask."
Majri: "It is something of power far beyond your mortal ways."
Majri: "Give it to me, I know how to use it properly."
Ezra: Sure let the level 20 wizard complete the quest
Bernard Blackbrass: -Is that our mission?-
Ezra: I'll give him it
Bernard Blackbrass: -Wait.-
Bernard Blackbrass: "Excuse me."
Ezra: "Malor may be destroyed if this isn't put back where it belongs."
The Drufle: Majri stretches out his hand, his eyes still on the mask.
Majri: "Destroyed, yes, of course."
Seishi Honekawa: "Excuse me too!"
Majri: "Give me the mask, girl."
Bernard Blackbrass: "What do you need with an unfinished mask?"
Ezra: "I'm sorry, you seem a little distracted."
Bernard Blackbrass: -Don't give it to him.-
Seishi Honekawa: "How did you manage to bind a qlippoth to your service?"
Majri: "I have no use for it now, but I assure you that you could never complete it."
Ezra: -Keeping the mask here will keep it very safe.-
Majri: "Just give me the mask, I assure you."
* Majri takes a step forward.
Seishi Honekawa: -He might, you know, get rid of us afterwards-
Ezra: -If we do manage to find the missing parts, he can't deny us the oppotunity to complete it.-
Seishi Honekawa:
Sense Motive Check

The Drufle: As he approaches you, you suddenly feel intensely hot.
Bernard Blackbrass: -I really don't trust this fellow.-
Ezra: -I doubt he wants Malor to be destroyed.-
The Drufle: You two are lucky you have fire resistance.
Ezra: "Wow, you are really hot."
Seishi Honekawa: totes hots
Bernard Blackbrass: -I think someone who binds, what did Seishi call it, a Qlippoth? is probably aligned with it.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Please Ezra, reconsider, keep him talking!-
Majri: "Hot, yes."
Majri: "I am a fire suli in the hottest place on the planet."
Majri: "Now, the mask."
Ezra: "You seem remarkably calm for someone whose home could be destroyed."
Majri: "Oh, this temple could never be destroyed."
Majri: "Now, give me the mask."
Bernard Blackbrass: "...!"
Seishi Honekawa: try sense motive
Bernard Blackbrass: "What does it take to repair the mask?"
* You roll to yourself: d20+7 => 11 + 7 = 18
Ezra: its +2 drufle, roll it in secret?
The Drufle: Sure.
* Bernard Blackbrass blocks the two from contact bodily.
* You roll to yourself: d20+2 => 10 + 2 = 12
The Drufle: Neither Brass nor Ezra seem to know precisely what Majri is thinking.
* Bernard Blackbrass looks the flaming man in the eyes.
Majri: "Surely you know."
Majri: "If Arali did not inform you, I have no reason to do so myself."
Majri: "Now, one more time."
Ezra: So is he going to destory it or
The Drufle: His outstretched arm lays open in front of Ezra, kind of catching on fire as he speaks.
Ezra: he probably can't anyway
The Drufle: He is exceedingly intent on getting the mask.
Majri: "Ezra, the mask."
Majri: "Now."
Ezra: he knows my name
Bernard Blackbrass: -Did you even tell him your name?-
Majri: "I did not need you to tell me your name."
Majri: "Or anything about you, for that matter."
Bernard Blackbrass: "..."
Ezra: i am your father
Ezra: !!
Majri: "I will ask you one more time."
Ezra: "Okay."
* Seishi Honekawa brings out a scroll
The Drufle: A scroll?
Seishi Honekawa: detect evil bruh
The Drufle: Majri's eyes move to the sudden movement.
Bernard Blackbrass: Okay.
Brass: Evil
Ezra: I've just given him the mask.
Seishi Honekawa: "I apologize."
Majri: "I do not appreciate divination, feathered one."
The Drufle: So you're actually going to give him the mask?
Bernard Blackbrass: -No!-
Seishi Honekawa: how many evil auras are in front of me
Ezra: I don't see another option.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Wait."
Ezra: We're not dying while we escape this place.
The Drufle: Seishi: about as many as you'd see in the Abyss.
Ezra: I'd rather keep him friendly.
* Majri turns to Brass.
Majri: "Do not interrupt me."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I don't need to."
Bernard Blackbrass: "You seem powerful enough to just take the mask."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Not even with force."
Seishi Honekawa: Seishi: about as many as you'd see in the Abyss.
Seishi Honekawa: wait what
Bernard Blackbrass: "Maybe this is beyond us. We did pretty much just deliver this to you anyway. Fine."
The Drufle: Majri smiles a bit.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Answer me this, Majri."
Bernard Blackbrass: "What did you mean this temple would not be destroyed?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Is this a safe spot? Is Arali safe?'
Majri: "It is an ancient relic of a building, older than even I."
Seishi Honekawa: -Are *we* safe-
Majri: "It has been here since the birth of the planet."
Bernard Blackbrass: -We are never completely safe.-
Majri: "And no, Arali is not safe."
Ezra: "Is...is Sand King safe?"
Seishi Honekawa: but no seriously
Majri: "Now that I know she's been purposely hiding the mask from me, I'll have to go talk to her."
* Bernard Blackbrass shuts his eyes and furrows his brow, identical to meditation.
Seishi Honekawa: 'about as many as you'd see in the Abyss.'
Seishi Honekawa:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 5 + 8 = 13 »
The Drufle: It is really, really, really evil.
Seishi Honekawa: oh damnit
Ezra: "I wouldn't worry too much, she was trying to destroy it."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I don't think we were meant to hand you this mask."
Majri: "Oh? What else would you do with it?"
Majri: "Use it yourself?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Maybe you would take it. Peacefully. Out of her hands."
Bernard Blackbrass: "But it doesn't seem to belong to you yet."
Majri: "If she's been hiding it, I doubt she would give it to me."
Ezra: "I don't want to see Malor destroyed. That is all."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I don't care either way about Malor."
Majri: "Oh, Malor is already destroyed."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Few in here do."
Seishi Honekawa: "Malor is terrible!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "I care about information and I care about the deal."
Majri: "Deal?"
Majri: "What deal are we making?"
Majri: "You give me the mask, you leave."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yes, then you blast this land, and we die outside your temple."
Majri: "Oh, I would never do that."
Ezra: "What do you mean, Malor is dead?"
Ezra: "What is happening to this place?"
* Majri draws back his arm for a moment.
Ezra: "All these rifts in space, why are they happening?"
* Bernard Blackbrass steels his eyes. "...!"
Majri: "I believe that was my fault, but honestly, who cares at this point."
Majri: "Now, give me the mask before I have to take it."
Ezra: Didn't I give him it already
Bernard Blackbrass: I hope not.
Seishi Honekawa: -There's a really, really evil aura in front of me. And I don't think it's you two.-
The Drufle: Did you?
The Drufle: He got distracted before he took it.
Ezra: Do you actually think we can escape here?
Seishi Honekawa: i dont know anymore
Bernard Blackbrass: What do we have to escape?
Ezra: we'd have to load up the cart, and get back that way, and this guy is 10000 years old or something
Seishi Honekawa: am i golurk who am i
Ezra: he's probably level 20 by now at least
Ezra: and he's got minions
Majri: "Alright, I've had enough of this stalling."
Ezra: We have a 30 ft move speed and we're directly next to him
Ezra: what no time froze
Ezra: and i already gave him it
Bernard Blackbrass: No we kept him engaged a while.
Bernard Blackbrass: -Present it to him.-
The Drufle: No, you did not give it to him.
Ezra: "Okay, fine."
Bernard Blackbrass: -Let him take it from your hands, but do not offeri t.-
Seishi Honekawa: you're *engaged* now?? wow so quick ezra
Seishi Honekawa: whens your battle marriage
The Drufle: He tries to force-pull the mask from Ezra's hands, but it doesn't move.
Bernard Blackbrass: -See?-
The Drufle: He seems incredibly agitated by this fact.
* Bernard Blackbrass grins mockingly.
Bernard Blackbrass: "I knew it."
Seishi Honekawa: -Try concentrating!-
Majri: "Did he put a lock on it? No, no, that's impossible."
Seishi Honekawa: -There might be an illusion effect or something-
Seishi Honekawa: (will save)
The Drufle: Majri leaps towards Ezra to try and steal the mask from her, but bounces harmlessly away when his hands touch the mask.
Bernard Blackbrass: -He. Good to know.-
Ezra: "!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We will take the painstaking task of finishing this mask."
* Majri stands up and straightens his robe.
Bernard Blackbrass: "That's not a problem right?"
Majri: "No, I think I'll have the mask anyway."
* Bernard Blackbrass gets between them again, some hint of street fierceness.
Majri: "If you can't give it to me, I'm sure I can take it from your corpse."
Ezra: should i just disappear
Seishi Honekawa: time to DIE
Majri: "At least that way you'll never have the pleasure of wearing it."
Ezra: vanish!
* Bernard Blackbrass tries to take the mask and put it on himself.
Ezra: what?!
The Drufle: Good, I was wondering when that would happen.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Please."
Ezra: "Hey!"
Ezra: you of course get it
Seishi Honekawa: put it on the bird head
* Bernard Blackbrass smiles disarmingly, trying to take the mask.
Seishi Honekawa: it might work
Seishi Honekawa: caw caw
Bernard Blackbrass: "You could learn manners, Majri" is the last thing he says before it's donned.
Ezra: ah shit
Bernard Blackbrass: "Bitches love manners."
Ezra: game over
The Drufle: Majri frowns and disappears in a puff of smoke.
The Drufle: From afar, you hear his voice.
Majri: "I will not deal with this anymore."
Majri: "My elementals will take care of you."
Ezra: Vanishing Trick!
Seishi Honekawa: translation: "ugh check your pppodspfdpcppp
Seishi Honekawa: what the hell
Bernard Blackbrass: "Whoa. Nice."
Seishi Honekawa: i cast invisbility!
The Drufle: Plumes of fire flow in from the walls, and form into six more elementals.
Ezra: So is Brass the final boss yet or what
Bernard Blackbrass: "Tactical nightmare. Surrounded, outnumbered, outgunned..."
Ezra: big monster brass
Bernard Blackbrass: "Fire."
Bernard Blackbrass: Gojira Brass
The Drufle: The elementals seem a bit reluctant to go near Brass, but approach anyway.
* Bernard Blackbrass mutters something in Ignan under his breath. It sounds vaguely dictated.
Seishi Honekawa: initiative?
The Drufle: If you wish to attack them, yes.
The Drufle: At the moment they seem a bit confused.
Seishi Honekawa: oh so can we try tunning away
Seishi Honekawa: running
Ezra: Is anything happeneing to Brass
* Bernard Blackbrass proclaims "Everyone back away" in a resounding voice.
The Drufle: In common?
* Bernard Blackbrass might have been a bit late though.
Bernard Blackbrass: Yeah, for the party.
Seishi Honekawa: what's happening
Ezra: "What is he doing..."
Seishi Honekawa: is brass the new queen
The Drufle: The fire elementals surround Brass, glaring at him.
Seishi Honekawa: all hail fire princess
Seishi Honekawa: quen fire princess
The Drufle: They seem incredibly angry, but unwilling to attack.
Bernard Blackbrass: ((Little terrified.))
Ezra: "Argh, what is he doing!?"
Bernard Blackbrass: (Ignan) "Well? Do I die here?"
Ezra: "We should...we should attack...!"
FireButler 1: "Regardless of your new power, you are not the Lord of Flames."
FireButler 1: "Nor are you his avatar."
Seishi Honekawa: my avatar is a golurk in a maid outfit
FireButler 1: "Leave now, or we will be forced to kill you."
Seishi Honekawa: oh we can totes leave
Seishi Honekawa: mmkay
The Drufle: This is in Ignan.
The Drufle: Only Brass understands what they say.
Seishi Honekawa: well yeah im not talking yet
* Bernard Blackbrass throws his hand aside. The southermost two are blocking him.
The Drufle: They move aside, still watching Brass closely.
Bernard Blackbrass: (Ignan) "You will have nothing to fear."
FireButler 1: "We do not fear you, creature."
FireButler 1: "We fear only the true Lord."
Ezra: "...Brass?"
Seishi Honekawa: the final boss is jesus
Seishi Honekawa: calling it now
Bernard Blackbrass: "I'm not sure that was your lord."
FireButler 1: "No, he is not."
FireButler 1: "He is the Lord's avatar."
FireButler 1: "You are not."
Bernard Blackbrass: "And yet, he was denied. Rethink this."
Seishi Honekawa: my other avatar is a gols star with "i tried" on it
Seishi Honekawa: gold
FireButler 1: "Leave."
Bernard Blackbrass: -Let's leave.-
Seishi Honekawa: "Don't do qlippoth they're bad for everyone's health!"
FireButler 1: "Should we meet again, you will not leave alive."
Ezra: we could've taken them!
Bernard Blackbrass: to a lovely sushi restaurant.
Bernard Blackbrass: How big were they?
Seishi Honekawa: caught them in pokeballs
The Drufle: The fire butlers were Large elementals, and the other six were Medium.
Bernard Blackbrass: oh damn
Seishi Honekawa: your moms!
Bernard Blackbrass: If you said that earlier then
Bernard Blackbrass: screw it we leave
The Drufle: As you pass through the entryway, FireButler 1 appears once more.
Seishi Honekawa: "What nooooow"
FireButler 1: "Do not disappoint us."
Seishi Honekawa: caw caw
* Bernard Blackbrass has a softer expression. "I won't."
The Drufle: The doors close.
Seishi Honekawa: "penis"
The Drufle: Well, now the party is in a bit of a predicament.
Ezra: "So...what just happened?"
Bernard Blackbrass: ((more than a little terrified))
Bernard Blackbrass: "They claimed that I have a newfound power from this mask."
Hina Takahashi: "I... what exactly was that?"
Ezra: "Should we be running like hell right now?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "However, I was not the true Lord of Flames. That Majri was the Lord's Avatar."
Bernard Blackbrass: "We're safe until we return."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I retorted that he was not allowed to wear the mask, and clearly was not in favor."
Seishi Honekawa:

The Drufle: That is an accurate conclusion.
The Drufle: From inside the temple you hear loud shouting.
The Drufle: Someone is not too happy.
Hina Takahashi: "We should leave, like now."
Ezra: I thought he would be nice too.
* Bernard Blackbrass gives a forlorn shrug to nothing in particular.
Seishi Honekawa: now how do we kill jesus
Bernard Blackbrass: Now what does this mask do?
Bernard Blackbrass: "We'll fix up this mask."
The Drufle: Right, the mask.
The Drufle: Since it's all passive abilities I can just tell you I suppose.
The Drufle: First off, you don't hear that voice in your head anymore.
Ezra: Voice???
Seishi Honekawa: "Hold me, duck."
The Drufle: So right now, you have 3 resistance to all energy types (does not stack with preexisting resistances).
Jikai: quack quack
The Drufle: DR 5/epic, and all elementals have -2 to saves against your abilities.
Jikai: can we apply that to the party
Bernard Blackbrass: lol
Jikai: instead of you know
Jikai: one person
The Drufle: Only the person who is wearing the mask gets the powers, and only if they are wearing it.
Jikai: again
Jikai: quack
Bernard Blackbrass: lolololololol
The Drufle: So, he could give it to someone else.
The Drufle: Since he doesn't get a lot of resistance from it.
The Drufle: Or he could just keep it.
The Drufle: It looks pretty damn terrifying.
Bernard Blackbrass: This is not a mask.
Bernard Blackbrass: This is not a costume.
Bernard Blackbrass: This is who I am.
Bernard Blackbrass: I am a Fox.
Ezra: you are shadow the hedgehog
Bernard Blackbrass: This is WHO I AM.
Jikai: what does a fox say
The Drufle: So, the question right now is
The Drufle: Where to?
Ezra: Fucking Away
Bernard Blackbrass: To the Tekton corpse!
Seishi Honekawa: mgronalds
Bernard Blackbrass: I place the mask on the Tekton corpse.
Bernard Blackbrass: Mmmhmm.
Bernard Blackbrass: Then I take it right off.
Bernard Blackbrass: And put it back on.
Bernard Blackbrass: That was fun!
The Drufle: Well, alright.
The Drufle: Sure.
The Drufle: The zhyens are like.
Ezra: "Hina, we should start leaving."
The Drufle: Staring at you, utterly confused.
Bernard Blackbrass: I place the mask over this guy. Then on me again.
Hina Takahashi: "Yeah, let me get the gemsteeds going."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Urtar, right?"
Seishi Honekawa: "wait, this cart can go underwater"
Ezra: "Thanks."
Seishi Honekawa: "can we not leave the continent with just this?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Ahaha no."
Urtar: "I... yes, sir."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I need my food."
Ezra: "Stop playing with the Fire God's mask"
Ezra: "Or what ever that is"
Bernard Blackbrass: (Well, again I put the mask over his face, or body or whatever, then put it back on me)
Bernard Blackbrass: "Lord of Flames."
The Drufle: It doesn't seem to do much.
The Drufle: He is a bit freaked out.
Ezra: "Close enough."
* Bernard Blackbrass hands it to Ezra.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hand it right back, try it on first though."
Ezra: I look down at it with mild concern.
Ezra: I put it on.
* Bernard Blackbrass looks at Ezra with mild concern, but that's kind of par.
Ezra: "Do I at least look scary?"
The Drufle: Alright, Ezra feels a surge of power.
* Bernard Blackbrass smiles. "Very."
The Drufle: You feel that the mask makes you quite resistant to a lot of things.
Ezra: Does it make me resist insults
The Drufle: No.
Seishi Honekawa: resist the urge to dance
Ezra: "Feels cool I guess."
Ezra: I take it off and give it back.
Ezra: "I was expecting it to turn us into a monster or something."
Bernard Blackbrass: And I put it back on. "Did you hear anything?"
Ezra: "Isn't that silly?"
Ezra: "Um, not really."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Actually no, given what we've experienced."
Seishi Honekawa: "Ninja"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Now we can go under the water and await the death cloud."
Seishi Honekawa: "Didnt you have that book?"
Ezra: "Arali's book?"
Seishi Honekawa: "Yes."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Tell her we fucked up. No. tell her Jenna fucked up."
Seishi Honekawa: "You mentioned Arali earlier."
Ezra: "Oh, right."
Ezra: "Majri said he was going to find her."
Ezra: "We should tell her."
* Bernard Blackbrass stops teasing.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Right now you better."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Now. NOW."
Ezra: Okay!
Bernard Blackbrass: "Open that book!"
Ezra: I open the book!!
* Bernard Blackbrass scribbles as fast as he can.
* Bernard Blackbrass has a history in dictating letters rather fast.
Bernard Blackbrass: it's canon
Bernard Blackbrass: backstory
Ezra: okay then
The Drufle: What do you write?
Seishi Honekawa: penispenispenis
Bernard Blackbrass: "Arali, the mask rejected Majri. He couldn't just take it. I wore it instead."
Seishi Honekawa: aw dang we didnt even mention freudicon
The Drufle: There is no response.
Seishi Honekawa: such a wasted opportunity
Seishi Honekawa: we should go back
Ezra: lets
Ezra: lets write it
* Bernard Blackbrass says "Awww fuck."
Ezra: in the sand
Ezra: doitdoit
Ezra: "Oh, we need to take it outside."
Bernard Blackbrass: "...Oh. Doi."
Ezra: "Stop the cart, Hina."
The Drufle: The gemsteeds halt short of the water.
Seishi Honekawa: oh have we crossed the lake already
The Drufle: No.
Bernard Blackbrass: And I write it again just to make sure.
The Drufle: They were just about to enter.
Seishi Honekawa: oh ok
Ezra: I write 'Freudicon' in the sand.
Ezra: Big letters
The Drufle: After your message a large ink blot appears.
Seishi Honekawa: nooo
Seishi Honekawa: aaaaaaa
Bernard Blackbrass: Brass's eyes widen under that mask. "Oh no. Oh no."
Seishi Honekawa: noooooooo
Bernard Blackbrass: "She's angry or doomed."
Ezra: whats that white hting
Seishi Honekawa: penis
Ezra: oh
The Drufle:
The Drufle: So, once more.
Ezra: sure ok
The Drufle: A party without a clue.
The Drufle: Do you head back across the lake?
The Drufle: To the sand and spires?
Bernard Blackbrass: Anything else on that rock?
Bernard Blackbrass: Surely we can ride around here.
Seishi Honekawa: must be a clue
Bernard Blackbrass: I guess mask portions wouldn't be here but
Bernard Blackbrass: it's nice to perceive things.
Seishi Honekawa:

Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + Perception + WisBonus = 7 + 2 + 3 = 12 »
Bernard Blackbrass: That rock being this island.
The Drufle: You perception the island?
Bernard Blackbrass: If we have time i'd suggest we "circle the island".
Seishi Honekawa: "Where do we go now?"
Bernard Blackbrass: Might be something in the distances.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Not back to the temple."
Seishi Honekawa: "We could find treasure"
Hina Takahashi: "That much is obvious."
Bernard Blackbrass: "We very well might."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Then again, it doesn't really belong to us."
Bernard Blackbrass: "But the monsters, Majri set out just for us."
Bernard Blackbrass: "They might have treasure."
Seishi Honekawa has received initiative.
The Drufle: Uh.
The Drufle: I should turn off initiative.
Seishi Honekawa: "I was suggesting looking in the ground, not going back there"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We're gonna find monsters no matter what we do."
The Drufle: Probably true.
The Drufle: So at the moment you have two real choices.
The Drufle: Across the water, or around the island.
Ezra: We'll have to cross eventually
Bernard Blackbrass: And when we cross, we are at the mercy of the Shoggti school.
Bernard Blackbrass: We can take them probably.
Bernard Blackbrass: It's just kind of a process.
Seishi Honekawa: i think there was just that one
The Drufle: Did anyone close the talking book or are you still holding it?
Bernard Blackbrass: It's still open.
The Drufle: Alright.
Seishi Honekawa: hot springs episode
Seishi Honekawa: y/y
The Drufle: As the large inkblot dries, some of the ink seems unusually raised.
Ezra: raised?
Seishi Honekawa: embossed
The Drufle: Yes.
Bernard Blackbrass: http://www.hellocosplay.com/images/mask/bleach-kurosaki-ichigo-hollow-mask-2.jpg
The Drufle: As in, it's a bit higher.
Bernard Blackbrass: I think this is a nice update to the pog.
The Drufle: That is not the mask at all.
Seishi Honekawa: maybe it's braille
The Drufle: Like, not even close.
Bernard Blackbrass: No it's not.
Seishi Honekawa:

Ezra: "That wizard he hates?"
Seishi Honekawa: squid squid squid
Bernard Blackbrass: "Who?"
Ezra: "Could that be our next lead?"
Ezra: "Remember what the Sand King said?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Forgive me, I was distracted at the time. Explain."
Ezra: "Don't mention Oedipius, basically."
The Drufle: Nope.
The Drufle: Try again.
Ezra: "He hates that guy, and would've gotten very angry if we mentioned him."
Hina Takahashi: "Because he was so pleasant otherwise."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Well I don't care much for him either. Terrible manners."
Ezra: i forgot the exact name, was it oedipia
The Drufle: Freudicon is the wizard.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Really, it's his own damn fault for not following procedure."
The Drufle: Oedipia is the island.
The Drufle: You don't know that.
Ezra: oh right, this is very confusing
The Drufle: You only know the wizard's name.
Ezra: pretend i said his name then
The Drufle: Right.
Ezra: thats what i meant to say anyway
Ezra: Also I'm going to erase this freudicon
Ezra: since its now relevent
Seishi Honekawa: if you zoom out it gets bigger
The Drufle: Yup.
Seishi Honekawa: um
Ezra: i broke space time
The Drufle: Anyway, are you crossing the lake?
Seishi Honekawa: let's goooo
Ezra: If we have to cross at some point, it may as well be now
Ezra: but are we safe he?
Ezra: re*
Bernard Blackbrass: We'll circle the island I say.
Ezra: we could actually do with a rest
The Drufle: For the moment, yes.
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh. Yes.
Bernard Blackbrass: Yes we could rest.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Okay how do we find this Oedipia?"
The Drufle: Do you mean end session rest, or skip to next morning rest?
Seishi Honekawa: we find treasure
Seishi Honekawa: this is now canon
Bernard Blackbrass: Next morning rest.
Seishi Honekawa: let's roll up some treasure

The Drufle: Brass: You know precisely where Oedipia is.
The Drufle: The party has a map, right?

Hina Takahashi: "Are you kidding?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Put this on."
Seishi Honekawa: let's use japanese
Seishi Honekawa: and use apostrophe
Seishi Honekawa: F'mbo
* Hina Takahashi takes the mask and puts it on her face reluctantly.
Seishi Honekawa: F'nbo
* Bernard Blackbrass smiles. "You look scary."
Hina Takahashi: "Ok, yes, I see that's where he is."
Hina Takahashi: "That doesn't change the fact that it's really far away, and also has an ocean between us."
Seishi Honekawa: oh is it morning again
The Drufle: Yes.
The Drufle: Spells and such are refreshed.
* Bernard Blackbrass holds his hands out for the mask. "Feel anything?" Not quite taking it.
The Drufle: Also, you're on the other side of the island now.
Hina Takahashi: "It has a bit of a tug, yeah."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Perhaps it likes Humans."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Anyway let's have that back."
The Drufle: Hina hands the mask back to Brass.
Ezra: "Brass, did you hear something when you wore it, then?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Sounded like an angry man shouting. Like he was angry because someone lit him on fire."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Ignan."
Ezra: "Maybe the mask just likes you now."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yeah Ignan's like that."
* Bernard Blackbrass looks at Veilwar, who is probably very curious for that mask.
Bernard Blackbrass: (ahaha no)
* Bernard Blackbrass positions it just so over Baby Tekton's bud.
The Drufle: Veilwar has been staring at the mask for a while, but doesn't seem to really care.
Ezra: "no."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Wha...?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Why not?"
Ezra: "We can't disturb it's growth."
Bernard Blackbrass: "..."
* Bernard Blackbrass looks over at Seishi. One more test subject.
Seishi Honekawa: 0-0
Ezra: How close is Tekton's revival anyway
* Bernard Blackbrass holds out the mask, most reluctant of all.
Ezra: Did you try Duck
Seishi Honekawa: two, three mode days?
The Drufle: One more.
The Drufle: The magical earth is accelerating the growth of the plant.
The Drufle: You can already see a humanoid shape forming.
Seishi Honekawa: ~magic~
Bernard Blackbrass: Did the magical water do anything?
Seishi Honekawa: it's a gloom now
The Drufle: A bit, but not much.
* Bernard Blackbrass retracts the mask.
* Bernard Blackbrass just puts it on and that would be that.
Seishi Honekawa: i really need to find some fucking zombies
Bernard Blackbrass: No, Seishi. You need to find corpses.
Seishi Honekawa: yes
Bernard Blackbrass: hmm where do we get a corpse.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey Seishi. You told me if we won that fight you'd get me a zombie."
* Bernard Blackbrass points at the old Tekton body.
Seishi Honekawa: "I was expecting that tentacled horror would stay put!"
Seishi Honekawa: "-sigh-"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yes, so was I. I was gonna eat its flesh."
Seishi Honekawa: "Your friend I not like what I will do"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Huh?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "...look i'm sorry. If you don't want to I understand."
Bernard Blackbrass: "But you said."
Bernard Blackbrass: "So come on already sis."
Seishi Honekawa: "I need to make a circle."
Ezra: "That withered thing is going to make a terrible zombie."
Seishi Honekawa: oops
Bernard Blackbrass: "Zombies are pretty terrible to begin with."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Maybe this one will be slightly less terrible."
Seishi Honekawa: oh cool it looks like a moon
Seishi Honekawa: let's go with that
Bernard Blackbrass: "It is our Tekton."
Seishi Honekawa: first.
Seishi Honekawa: desecrate
The Drufle: It looks like the nayru symbol.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Maybe we should have done this outside the wagon. Eh."
The Drufle: I think.
Bernard Blackbrass: The zelda references pile up.

The Drufle: Can you make him less rotted?
Bernard Blackbrass: I think that's the Greenblood Oil.
Seishi Honekawa: i assume the animation will fix that
Seishi Honekawa: no the poison isnt canon
The Drufle: Nah, that's the decaying plant matter.
The Drufle: Because plants do that when they die.
Seishi Honekawa: it wears off
Bernard Blackbrass: I think there's some spells.
Bernard Blackbrass: Some that reverse corpse decay.
Bernard Blackbrass: I don't know what they are.
Seishi Honekawa: once i revive him i can just cahnnel negative e-

Seishi Honekawa: ok lets pretend i did this already i just have to figure out the stats
Seishi Honekawa: there's no save anyway
The Drufle: Alright.
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh yeah, it loses its DR.
* Golurk rolls: 1d20 + 4 => 10 + 4 = 14
The Drufle: Do you want to end on that?
Bernard Blackbrass: I guess that DR could be more useful.

Bernard Blackbrass: I could keep going.
Seishi Honekawa: same

Bernard Blackbrass: Say Brass and Ezra stole it while marching out.
Bernard Blackbrass: (Brass would!)
Seishi Honekawa: or better
The Drufle: Well, alright, I suppose.
Bernard Blackbrass: Stealing is cool for Lawful people so long as you pay taxes on it.
Ezra: I -was- invisible at the time.
Bernard Blackbrass: Or the guy was Chaotic.
Bernard Blackbrass: Chaotic people steal all their things.
Bernard Blackbrass: this is restealing.
Seishi Honekawa: i think everyone missed my detect evil

The Drufle: Probably something about skill checks?
Bernard Blackbrass: "I think i'm too old."
Ezra: Drufle, I put on that ring from last time

Ezra: see how it got better each time
Bernard Blackbrass: All in neat /4 jumps.
The Drufle: Mhm.
Bernard Blackbrass: All very close to the height ratio of Mario's Triple Jump.
Bernard Blackbrass: Ezra now wears a cap with an E on it.
Bernard Blackbrass: Her rival wears a backwards E.
The Drufle: Alright, I think that's good unless you know where exactly you're headed.
Bernard Blackbrass: It is either Wezra or Slim Shady.
Ezra: no its an upside down E
Ezra: which is just E
The Drufle: Are you just going to pilot the deepboat across the ocean?
Bernard Blackbrass: We circle the island and then do that.
Bernard Blackbrass: "We can't risk riding this off Malor everyone."
Seishi Honekawa: deepboat = deepthroat + motorboat
Bernard Blackbrass: "The ocean is a whole different beast, abyssal creatures or not."
Bernard Blackbrass: "The sheer size and depth of it might crush our stone cart."
Hina Takahashi: "Well, we don't have a boat, do we?"
Seishi Honekawa: freudicon will have a field day with that term
Ezra: lets go tell him all about our deepboating
