The topic for #kingmaker is: "Use !roll and !try instead of /roll and /try" Elias Pauline and I used to use it all the time for chat You are now known as Taranis DM Excellent Obormot [Obormot@pool-98-116-27-206.nycmny.east.verizon.net] entered the room. Obormot is now known as Aleksei DM And that's three. No Ian, and ChrisR will be slightly late. DM Which means all we're missing is a Granger. Taranis and tha'ts annoying… it /nick'd me in all channels Taranis ah well Obormot\Gaia [Obormot@pool-98-116-27-206.nycmny.east.verizon.net] entered the room. Obormot\Gaia is now known as Aleksei\Gaia DM yeah, it's one nick for all connections. Aleksei\Gaia Yep irc is like that DM You can always use the web client if it bothers you. Taranis only way around really is to just use an entirely different client DM or the Hugin one. Taranis eh, not enough to worry yet at least DM in the meantime... for those who haven't loaded it already... DM http://hugin.xthemage.net/hugin/?instance=kingmaker Aleksei\Gaia Or? You made a Hugin thing that isn't the web thing? DM The hugin one is the web thing. DM It's just a window in hugin itself. Aleksei\Gaia k Aleksei\Gaia I should check it out DM hmm... actually... let me open up a new tab. Aleksei\Gaia ah ffs DM left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). DM [webchat@localhost] entered the room. DM There we go Aleksei\Gaia Oliver Aleksei\Gaia help Aleksei\Gaia I forgot my password DM oy. DM sign in as a guest. Aleksei\Gaia To my Hugin account that I made like two days ago. DM I'll reset it afterwards. Aleksei\Gaia k. Aleksei\Gaia Oh god your new line tool icon looks even less like a line DM err... Aleksei\Gaia See this would be ok as the pencil icon, ironically DM I haven't uploaded the fixed icon. DM I'll swap them around later. Aleksei\Gaia k DM hmm... DM left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). xthehome is now known as DM Taranis hmm DM There… that's better. DM OK Taranis looks like firefox still has issues in hugin Elias firefox dislikes your backgrounds apparently Taranis only part of backdrop that shows is blackness Bolgan [webchat@localhost] entered the room. DM Scroll down to row 13 or so. DM I blacked out most of the backdrop. Bolgan oh god wtf is an IRC Taranis oh yeah the minis show DM It's just there to Irc you. Elias I am at row 15 Elias I am seeing our icons Aleksei\Gaia Yep Taranis just there is black, and blank, and minis DM really? Elias I am not seeing the apparently cave bg you put in Aleksei\Gaia Icons, backdrop which is a premade map Taranis there is none of the cave pictures Aleksei\Gaia Black Aleksei\Gaia Oh well then Aleksei\Gaia Get a better browser imo Elias left the room (quit: Connection closed). Elias [Elias@cpe-24-90-157-30.nyc.res.rr.com] entered the room. DM Ok, well, if you can use Safari/Chrome, I'll look at it tomorrow and fix the issue. Taranis I'm in safari, it's fine there, we can just share screens as-needed for now Aleksei\Gaia Why not just launch Chrome for this one thing Elias because I have to install it DM ok Elias on a netbook Elias which has issues as is DM I'll see what's bugging out tomorrow. Aleksei\Gaia Hm DM Now that everyone who hasn't informed me that they were going to be late or not here is here... Aleksei\Gaia Oh who's running Ilya Aleksei\Gaia I wanna do it unless someone else has claimed him DM Ah, yes… can we get an Ilya and an Akiros. Aleksei\Gaia Um Aleksei\Gaia Actually yeah! Aleksei\Gaia is now known as Ilya Ilya bam DM Excellent. Ilya char sheet on dropbox? Taranis yep Ilya Wonderful DM So… your return to Oleg's was cut short after it turned out that his wife Svetlana had been captured. Ilya I should do the same with Aleksei's DM After discovering that she'd been captured by Kobolds and captured from them by a tribe of Mites, you ran off to hunt the mites down. DM You raided their lair, nestled within an old sycamore tree, and found Svetlana and the guard who was accompanying her, chained up to a wall next to an unconscious Kobold. DM The mites who were torturing her, the guard, and the kobold have just been chased off. DM http://hugin.xthemage.net/hugin/?instance=kingmaker Taranis So let's get them down, get out of here, and come back later DM Do you attempt pursuit? DM Alright. The remaining mites flee away from you. Aleksei It's not so much that we attempt pursuit, as traverse the lair and kill everything within Aleksei Starting, naturally, with the direction in which the mites escaped Bolgan should they still be around, it's coitains Taranis I see no reason to press our luck Taranis (remember, we're fatigued) Aleksei Well Aleksei That's bad but Aleksei I have heals Taranis (my offense is entirely down to ray of frost) Aleksei Oh well then Aleksei Silly mages Aleksei I mean what if they all escape Aleksei And disperse Aleksei Throughout the forest Taranis The most logical thing to do is get the captives out and return as soon as we're rested Aleksei Ok but Aleksei Let's rest here Aleksei So they can't escape through here Taranis Remember, any such thing requires us to protect Svetlana and the guard Taranis and deal with the kobold Aleksei Ok Aleksei The kobold is chained up Aleksei What's he gonna do Taranis and we are in a position where we can be attacked from two directions. Aleksei meh Svetlana [webchat@localhost] entered the room. Aleksei Let's set up like a watch order or whatever Svetlana looks uncomfortable Taranis Not to mention that our priority should be getting Svetlana back to Oleg. Taranis That is why we came here. Aleksei I guess that's true. Bolgan I suppose this was a rescue mission . . . we could maybe do some rescuing Svetlana I... would rather not stay here. Aleksei Let's take Svetlana and the guard dude down Taranis Nobody who isn't stupid is suggesting you do. Ilya We'll have you back home in no time, ma'am. Svetlana breathes a sigh of relief DM So, what's the plan? Taranis Unchain everyone Taranis make sure the kobold is unconscious first DM He's quite unconscious. Ilya Free them, then proceed back the way we came Taranis send one beefy person up the rope, bring the rest up with a beefy person at the end Taranis return to Oleg's DM Ok. DM The mites do not bother you on the way back up. Taranis mark this location carefully, and hoof it back DM Most direct route back, or already traveled route? Ilya Most direct DM Actually, no difference, either way. DM It'll take you about 15 hours to get back to Oleg's. It's already close to nightfall by the time you start to leave. Taranis 15 hours? Elias sounds like we're camping out DM You rode through most of the night and about half a day to get here. DM There's a reason you're fatigued. DM hmm Taranis I had thought we were just fatigued because we hadn't taken any pause after reaching Oleg's, but clearly I forgot DM You didn't sleep that night. You just rode all the way through. Taranis well it would be silly to press quite that hard to get back, I think DM ok DM You get back towards nightfall on your 3rd day out. Taranis let's get at least a couple of hours away before resting DM The trip is otherwise uneventful DM Oleg is overjoyed to see Svetlana returned. Oleg [webchat@localhost] entered the room. Oleg My sincerest thanks to you, friends. Oleg My home will always be open to you. Oleg And whatever I can do to repay you, I shall. Trip [webchat@localhost] entered the room. Ilya We're glad to help. Doing good is its own reward. Taranis If you could ask some questions of the hunters and trappers for us when they come by... Oleg Of course. What kind of questions? DM Aha, a Trip! Taranis and arrange for a merchant to convert those sleds of goods to some things we need in Restov... Oleg Already being done. I sent them along with a merchant convoy just this morning. Trip (Have I lost any XP or other changes to my character sheet?) DM (no changes) Aleksei (you now have negative 500 XP) Aleksei (and are dead.) Taranis Just information about the area, anything interesting; ruins, camps, anything like that Trip oh Oleg Of course. Aleksei (if this were my other cleric you would be raised as a zombie by now) Oleg I will gladly keep my ears open. Aleksei (alas, Desna frowns on necromancy) Trip XP-|----< DM So. Now what? Aleksei Now Aleksei We go clear out the mites Aleksei And then the kobolds Taranis Well Aleksei To make the forest safe for democracy Taranis First, we interrogate our kobold prisoner DM Mmm… indeed. What about the kobold you brought with you? Taranis then I think we should drop by that local druid / alchemist briefly, see if he can hook us up with some stuff Svetlana is now known as Kobold_Prisoner Oleg provides you with directions to the druid. Taranis especially if it's not a major detour DM It is about 5 hours out of your way. Taranis so… given a 15 hour journey already… not too bad Taranis let's meet this guy DM What about the Kobold? DM Dealing with him yourselves, taking him along, or leaving him to be interrogated? Taranis We interrogate him now Ilya We should deal with him ourselves DM ok Taranis and then… we'll see Kobold_Prisoner groggily wakes up. Ilya looms over the kobold menacingly Kobold_Prisoner yips DM Anyone speak draconic? Ilya (what do we want from him exactly?) Taranis I do Ilya speaks draconic probably? Taranis Location of kobold lair(s); numbers & capabilities, defenses, etc. Ilya (his sheet is silent on the matter) Kobold_Prisoner speaks in yipped draconic Kobold_Prisoner Aaaa...Wait... You're not mites! Kobold_Prisoner Who are you? Where am I? Ilya (Oliver, does Ilya speak draconic) DM (I suspect that he does) Taranis I presume it would be on his list given the dragon sorcerer bit he's going for… but I do not see it on the sheet anywhere Taranis or any languages, for that matter DM (Let's assume so, and if he doesn't, then Taranis translated) Taranis (also, pretty sure he was talking to the kobolds who pointed us to the mites) Ilya You're our prisoner! Ilya And that means you're going to answer our questions. Kobold_Prisoner looks dejected Kobold_Prisoner thinks a moment Kobold_Prisoner The mites... did you kill them? Ilya Not yet, but if you help us, we will. Kobold_Prisoner reacts eagerly Kobold_Prisoner ! What do you need? Ilya Tell us everything you know about them! Ilya Where are their lairs? Ilya How many are there? Kobold_Prisoner Just the old sycamore! But there are dozens of mites. Kobold_Prisoner And they captured old soot scale! Kobold_Prisoner s/sootscale/sharptooth/ Kobold_Prisoner Without old sharptooth, our tribe is doomed! Aleksei Hey Aleksei Do you guys think Aleksei We can like, make an alliance with the kobolds Aleksei Instead of killing them Kobold_Prisoner !try 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for Kobold_Prisoner DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > + 0 = 7 Aleksei is speaking Common, of course Taranis Theoretically… but will it hold? DM (yep, the kobold doesn't seem to understand) Aleksei I dunno Aleksei We could kill them if it doesn't, right? Elias does knowledge nature do anything for knowledge of kobolds? Aleksei But these dudes seem to hate the mites Aleksei And not so much humans Taranis Point is, what do we get out of it? Kobold_Prisoner The mites captured him! There were too many! I'll do anything if you help us get him back! DM Kobolds are covered under... Aleksei Well think about it Aleksei We rescue their leader, kill their enemies Aleksei THen Aleksei 1. We don't have to kill them, less work for us Aleksei 2. We can use them to kill other evil things Aleksei They get: their enemies dead and their numbers/territory expanded Aleksei I dunno this sounds like a good plan to me DM Kobolds are technically covered under local, but I'll let nature cover them as well. Ilya (are kobolds evil, do we know) DM Anyone who has either, roll up the better of nature or local. Taranis !try 11;nature DiceBot rolls attempts for Taranis DiceBot (nature) 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 11 = 24 Elias !try 3 DiceBot rolls attempts for Elias DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > + 3 = 10 DM Well, they're evil, but they're lawful evil. Taranis So it's reasonable to suppose that they will hold to an alliance DM On average, anyway. DM Other things you know: Taranis Assuming, of course, we negotiate with a kobold empowered to do so Taranis (and remember, they had captured Svetlana and the guard; the mites captured them *from* the kobolds) DM From your background knowledge on the area: DM There also are frequent claims of Kobolds and various fey creatures (particularly Mites) in the area. It seems that something has been riling up the Kobolds, who have been attacking hunters and trade caravans much more aggressively of late. The Swordlords of Restov have issued an 800 gp bounty to anyone who brings the situation under control. Trip slaps DM around a bit with a large fishbot Aleksei Aha Aleksei See Aleksei We don't have to kill them even Aleksei Just control things Aleksei I bet Aleksei It's the same thing that was like, controlling the Stag Lord Aleksei AND Aleksei If that's the case Aleksei Or even if not Taranis If you want to make a deal with them, go ahead Taranis vile little creatures Aleksei Allying with the kobolds I bet will help us find out what's behind this! Ilya does not like this idea very much but is forced to admit its obvious sensibleness Aleksei . Ilya ( :x ) Ilya in Draconic Ilya to the kobold Ilya We're going to kill the mites and return your leader to you. Ilya But! Ilya You'll owe us for this. Bolgan knowledge is fundamental - it's important to know the source of problems Kobold_Prisoner looks confused Kobold_Prisoner Our... leader? Kobold_Prisoner thinks Ilya Or whoever. Sharptooth. Ilya (that was his name, right) Kobold_Prisoner Old sharptooth isn't our leader. He's our god! Kobold_Prisoner beams Ilya Ok. Even better. Taranis (well I was going to say muscle… but ok, god) Ilya There's a condition! Ilya No more attacking or kidnapping humans. Kobold_Prisoner Ever since Tartuk revealed him to us, our tribe has been unstoppable! Ilya (getting a bad feeling about this plan now) Ilya IC, that is Aleksei isn't Kobold_Prisoner looks worried Taranis Tartuk? Ilya Who's Tartuk? Kobold_Prisoner Tartuk? He is old sharptooth's prophet! He came to us and showed us his power! Bolgan oh really . . . Ilya Is he a kobold? Kobold_Prisoner nods. Kobold_Prisoner nods Ilya in Common Ilya Well this is making me think we definitely need to rescue this Sharptooth character. Kobold_Prisoner !try 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for Kobold_Prisoner DiceBot 1d20 < 16 = 16 > + 0 = 16 Kobold_Prisoner grins Kobold_Prisoner You won't regret it! Taranis Definitely provides the most leverage… and if we can't deal, then we have the chance to remove him Aleksei Yeah no way are we going to get to the bottom of this otherwise Aleksei Exactly Kobold_Prisoner seems more confident. Aleksei And if my alliance plan still looks reasonable Kobold_Prisoner By the way, I'm Mikmek! Aleksei Then we can negotiate with him directly Kobold_Prisoner is now known as Mikmek Ilya turns to the kobold Ilya Alright, Mikmek. We're going to bring you with us to attack the mites. Ilya But no funny business. Ilya I'll be watching you. Mikmek nods vigorously Oleg left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). DM Ok. DM So, the plan is to go to the druid first and then back to the mite lair? Taranis I would like to head over there; see what we can pick up DM And a slight correction, 13 hours to get to/from the lair, and the druid adds only another 3 hours to the trip. Taranis (some alchemical magic components are handy; might be good for arrows and such too) Ilya Yeah Ilya Alchemical stuff is useful Ilya (I don't know what, if any, of such items Ian wanted to get) Ilya (so Taranis (how much cash cash could Oleg convert for us?) Ilya (can we say that Ilya acquires whatever is available and that he wanted) Taranis (eh, nm; we had what I presume is plenty of liquid wealth already) DM ok. DM So… you prepare to depart. Bolgan we had said magical shit was not available yet, yes? DM Akiros informs you that now that the relevant individuals have been rescued, he will be staying behind… If nothing else, someone has to keep an eye on Auchs. Aleksei placed an order for full plate with Oleg Taranis Good idea DM No magical shit is immediately available, no. Elias I place an order for a haversack DM Although potions/alchemical items might be available from this druid that you're heading to visit now. Taranis oh btw Bolgan "immediately"? so we can say I placed an order for some magical shit? Taranis Everyone tell me how many trail rations you have on your sheet; and erase them Elias 7 on Elias' sheet DM Yep, all relevant orders are assumed to have been placed before you left. DM Taranis, you were keeping track of how much everyone had to spend? Taranis 2,000 a person Bolgan so let's say I placed an order for bracers of armor +1 and some other thing that was 1000 that I am not remembering right now Aleksei had 3 weeks of trail rations Taranis (including whatever we're doing on alchemical here, and also a wagon) Taranis 3 weeks = 21? Bolgan 29 on mine Aleksei dunno? Taranis I presume so Taranis damn you two got lots of food Ilya had 9 trail rations Taranis Trip? Bolgan it's not like I buy equipment Trip 4 days worth Trip So wiping it out DM Ok. Bolgan cloak of resistance +1 one is the other thing I have ordered, apparently Bolgan for an expenditure of 2000 total Taranis ok, done Taranis yes, adds up perfectly Taranis (my requests are largely spells) Bolgan so I should erase my trail rations Taranis Yes Taranis I will just track them in party loot from now on DM Following Oleg's directions, after about 2 hours of travel, you find yourselves near an isolated grove of trees with a small hut next to it. Presumably this is the home of Bokken the druid. Bolgan very well Taranis raps on the door with his staff Bokken [webchat@localhost] entered the room. Bokken What! Taranis Bokken, is it? Aleksei Hi! We heard you sell things Taranis We hear you are an alchemist Bokken Yeah! What's it to you! Aleksei We want to buy some stuff. Trip (Watch out, he's a training sword!) Aleksei With our money that we have. Trip (It's probably already come up, but healing potions might be a sound investment.) Bokken Money eh. Fine fine fine. Hurry it up. DM The door is still closed, by the way. Taranis (yeah, healing potions are among what I want to buy myself) Aleksei So like are you going to open the door or how do we do this Bokken mutters Bokken Have to do everything myself. Taranis tries to push the door open with his frail old man arms DM you hear the door unlocking. Bokken What do you want! DM the door opens to reveal an aged man. Aleksei I want Aleksei 5 alchemist's fire and 5 acid Aleksei kthx Ilya also presumably says what he wants, if anything DM He looks like he's seen better days. He looks wrinkled, and extremely jittery. His eyes flitter between all of you, and his eye twitches every few moments. Bokken Fire, eh? The man wants fire. And acid too. Bokken Fine fine fine. I'll see what I have. Bokken walks in. Bokken walks inside. Taranis Liquid Frost as well if you have it DM You hear assorted rustling, and a loud crash or two. Several piles of papers. DM several piles of papers tumble over to the doorway. Bokken mutters Bokken I suppose you'll be wanting some eye of newt too. DM So, just to be clear, the list right now is alchemist's fire, acid, liquid frost and… what else? Taranis Not as useful as they say it is, eye of newt Bokken mutters. Taranis healing potions? Bokken My brother used to say that. Yep yep yep. Said it all the time. Bokken 's face pops into the door frame suddenly. Bokken glares at Taranis. Bokken eyes Taranis suspiciously. Bokken Right up until he cut off my finger he did. Yep. Suspicious. Very suspicious. Bolgan ruh roh Bokken holds up his hand Bokken vanishes back into his hut. Bokken Healing potions, and some fire. Yep yep yep. Have a little of each. Bokken pops back into the door frame and starts handing Taranis bottles almost faster than he can grab them. Bokken This one's for the light stuff... Bokken This one's for setting things on fire... Bokken (don't mix those up) Taranis (light stuff means CLW?) Bokken This one heals more... Bokken And this one goes down nice... Bokken And... that's all I have. Now, are you going to pay or what? Trip heehee. He's funny. Aleksei pays Taranis mages hands them into neat piles Aleksei bag of coins Taranis (So what does this amount to, total?) Aleksei I spent 150g Bokken Math. Now they want me to do math. Aleksei of my share DM Well, if you had to guess, he's just given you 2 CLWs, 1 CMW, 1 alchemist's fire. Aleksei Wait what DM and… one oddly smelling bottle. Aleksei Of the 5 and 5 I wanted Aleksei He gave me 1 fire? Aleksei And that's it? Bokken You want more... I need materials. Taranis He doesn't keep a large stock on hand for obvious reasons Aleksei Worthless! Aleksei Forget it man! Taranis What's this last one? Aleksei walks away Taranis sniffs it Bokken Like I said.... that one goes down nice. Taranis Does it smell like alcohol? DM Yes… yes it does. Bokken And if you want more, get me some fang berries. Bokken Thicket southwest of here. Just past rickety bridge over river. Damn kobolds and bandits won't let me get there. Taranis Fang berries, got it Bokken eyes Mikmek suspiciously. You have disconnected You have connected The topic for #kingmaker is: "Use !roll and !try instead of /roll and /try" Taranis left the room (quit: Connection closed). phelanarcetus (bad wireless!) Bolgan no biscuit? Aleksei Bah Aleksei Let's get out of here Aleksei Waste of a trip imo phelanarcetus So that actually amounts to… 50x2 + 300 + 20 so 420 plus whatever this booze costs, I guess? phelanarcetus We'll be back with those berries Trip What do we need the booze for? Aleksei Booze is for drinking phelanarcetus It's just coming out of whatever we individually wanted Bokken You want more fire and ice, come back in 1 week Bokken I'll have some for you. Bokken And get me those berries! Bokken slams the door. DM Ok. Bokken left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). phelanarcetus (did anyone want to buy CLW potions specifically?) Bolgan well then phelanarcetus (otherwise I will put them on party inventory) DM You continue South DM You find the mite's lair more/less as you left it. DM Descend back in? phelanarcetus Yep DM Ok. Trip I'm just recalling some past encounters. Aleksei Yep Aleksei Into the hole DM Recall that a short distance down into the lair, the path splits. DM You previously went West. Go the same way this time? phelanarcetus Yeah DM Ok. Well, as before, you pass through a cavern that seems to be a crude workshop. Only a single mite is present therein this time, and is easily dispatched. DM The "prison" where Svetlana was being kept is empty. DM Beyond the prison cavern, your lights reveal a crude rope bridge spanning a 20-30 ft wide chasm. DM Continue? Aleksei Yep Ilya leads the way Ilya Actually Ilya Might be best to have a scout-type character lead the way Ilya Someone who can trapfind Ilya Do we have such a person DM 3 stealthers, 1 of whom who can trapfind. Ilya Is that Trip Trip That's me. DM correct. Ilya gogo Mikmek can not DM ok. In that case, roll up some perception Bolgan wtf are traps Bolgan also have we rested yet? Aleksei We totally have Bolgan good news DM yeppers. several nights worth, in fact. Bolgan fuckin smart DM Perception from Trip please. Trip with or w/o trap sense? DM with Trip Crap. How do I roll? DM Use !roll DM or !try Trip !try 5 DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 3 = 3 > + 5 = 8 Trip (thanks) DM Mmm, indeed DM !try 1d100 DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot 1d20 < 10 = 10 > + 1d100 < 37 = 37 > = 47 Ilya Perhaps you meant !roll there DiceBot rolls dice for Ilya : = 0 Ilya lol DM !roll 1d100 DiceBot rolls dice for DM : 1d100 < 1 = 1 > = 1 DM >.> Bolgan amazeballs DM well, doesn't change much. DM As you're climbing across the rope bridge, one of the knots turns out to be much looser than you'd originally thought. DM Roll a reflex save (with any bonuses vs traps) Ilya Everyone or just Trip? DM Just trip Aleksei LET US HOPE SHE DOES NOT TRIP Trip well gosh darn Bolgan Trip !roll 6 DiceBot rolls dice for Trip : 6 = 6 Aleksei See this time you meant !try Bolgan lol Aleksei !try is for when you want a d20 with the stated bonus; !roll is for when you want to roll the stated dice DiceBot rolls dice for Aleksei : = 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for Aleksei DiceBot 1d20 < 1 = 1 > = 1 DiceBot 1d20 < 19 = 19 > = 19 DiceBot 1d20 < 12 = 12 > = 12 DiceBot 1d20 < 1 = 1 > = 1 DiceBot 1d20 < 18 = 18 > = 18 DiceBot 1d20 < 13 = 13 > = 13 DiceBot 1d20 < 10 = 10 >20 = 30 DiceBot 1d20 < 10 = 10 > = 10 DiceBot 1d20 < 2 = 2 > = 2 DiceBot 1d20 < 2 = 2 > = 2 Aleksei oh god DiceBot 1d20 < 6 = 6 > = 6 DiceBot 1d20 < 18 = 18 > = 18 DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > = 7 DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > = 7 DiceBot 1d20 < 5 = 5 > = 5 DiceBot 1d20 < 17 = 17 > = 17 phelanarcetus what did you do?

Elias dicebot was possessed You are now known as Taranis Taranis I… did not notice my name was wrong Bolgan what the fuck was that shit DiceBot [cinch@23.21.201.137] entered the room. DM ok. Aleksei Bug report lol DM Let's try that again DM You might want to limit the number of tries it can create. DM So... DM Lets' have that save. DM and in the meantime… from below, you hear skittering. DM Hungry skittering. Elias Skitters! Elias I wish to tame this animal Elias he shall be my squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my squishy Trip !try 6 DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 12 = 12 > + 6 = 18 DM Excellent. Trip manages to catch herself on some of the remaining ropes spanning the chasm as parts of the bridge fall apart. Aleksei Is she on the part of the bridge that's attached to this side Aleksei or the other side DM http://hugin.xthemage.net/hugin/?instance=kingmaker Aleksei mmk Aleksei ooh Aleksei cute critter DM Enough ropes remain of the bridge for it to be crossable with a simple climb check. Aleksei walks up to the edge of the chasm and looks Aleksei You ok there Trip? DM Just to be clear, the main support lines of the bridge are still there. Aleksei I see 'em DM Trip is hanging off of those. DM Below, you see an unpleasantly large centipede with a nasty looking tail. Aleksei Oh hey Aleksei Guys! Check this thing out DM It skitters about hungrilly. Aleksei Hm DM Meanwhile, from the other side of the chasm, you hear voices. Aleksei helps Trip climb back up to over here? Elias I go look at it! DM Someone talking loudly. Someone who makes a whistling sound every other syllable, as if they were missing a tooth or something. DM It looks at you hungrilly. Bolgan your face is hungry DM It hisses loudly. Elias part of me reaaaaally wants to throw the kobold to it Ilya What does Ilya The centipede? DM Yes. Trip Guys! Guess what? It's a trap! Ilya Good work. Aleksei Are we going to have to kill this bug Aleksei Or can we ignore it Aleksei I guess if we ignore it and then fall down there Aleksei That might be bad DM As long as no one falls into the pit, it's out of reach. DM err, you're out of its reach. Elias You all notice that elias looks like he's staring at a lost puppy dog he's plannign on taking home with him Bolgan Ilya Thinking of getting a new animal companion, Elias? Taranis new? Elias He's so cute Aleksei If you tame this thing can I ride it? Elias he just needs some love.....and some food DM (Well, it does have a leg up on other possibilities) Bolgan DM (About a hundred legs to be precise.) Aleksei (Bolgan will now continue making the face forever) Aleksei Ok well Bolgan if appropriate, yes Aleksei Can we see anything on the other side of the chasm DM So… as you're looking down… you see on the other side of the chasm… a Mite looking around. Aleksei Ah Aleksei SHOOT IT DM Roll up some init. DM Just for people with ranged weapons. Ilya !try 1;init DiceBot rolls attempts for Ilya DiceBot (init) 1d20 < 12 = 12 > + 1 = 13 Elias !try 4;init DiceBot rolls attempts for Elias DiceBot (init) 1d20 < 16 = 16 > + 4 = 20 Aleksei !try 0;init DiceBot rolls attempts for Aleksei DiceBot (init) 1d20 < 15 = 15 > + 0 = 15 DM !try 1;mite DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot (mite) 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 1 = 14 Taranis !try 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for Taranis DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > + 0 = 7 DM Ok… Elias and Aleksei, you have a surprise round to try to stop the mite from doing anything. Elias bowplomacy! DM roll it Elias !try 6 DiceBot rolls attempts for Elias DiceBot 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 6 = 11 Trip I assume I am not in a position to throw anything? Aleksei A surprise round? DM let's say… yes, but at a -2 penalty to hit Aleksei As in, a standard action? DM 1 standard action, yes. Aleksei fuck Aleksei can't actually do anything meaningful Aleksei draws his crossbow DM The mite is slow to react to Elias bow, and doesn't manage to dodge. DM roll damage. Elias !roll 1d8 DiceBot rolls dice for Elias : 1d8 < 5 = 5 > = 5 DM Well, it doesn't do *quite* as much damage as you'd hope, but the mite falls. DM Hmm… that was init for everyone except Trip and Mikmek Trip !try 4 DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 2 = 2 > + 4 = 6 DM So, as the arrow strikes home, the whistling voice changes to a shout, and lots of mite-sounding voices start shouting from the cavern on the other side of the Chasm. Mikmek !try 1 DiceBot rolls attempts for Mikmek DiceBot 1d20 < 15 = 15 > + 1 = 16 DM Everyone else can take a standard action to prepare. DM And then back up to the top of the round. DM with Elias. Taranis Mage Armor Bolgan !try 1 DiceBot rolls attempts for Bolgan DiceBot 1d20 < 19 = 19 > + 1 = 20 DM Err, whoops, missed Bolgan. Elias is still up first Elias Well do I see anything there to shoot? Bolgan I didn't have a ranged weapon Bolgan so I didn't roll earlier DM Yep, my mistake. DM Nothing within the range of your light sources except the centipede. Elias Then I hold until I see things DM ok DM Bolgan? Bolgan delay DM F'ref, it's now a Climb DC 5 to get across the remains of the rope bridge. DM k Bolgan climb? booo Bolgan I wanna apply kung fu to all my problems Mikmek runs up and shakes his fist angrily at the mites. Elias It's climb fu DM And Aleksei is up DM Aleksei? Ilya Hm Ilya No mites within the light? DM Not yet, but the voices are getting louder. The one with the missing tooth sounds angry. Ilya Ok well Ilya Aleksei will cast Shield of Faith. Taranis They did have ranged attacks, so I suggest not standing back on this side entirely DM ok DM the mites are up. DM Just to be clear, those who already went this round were delaying or readying? Taranis I had mage armor in that surprise round, now I delay Bolgan yeah - I want targets before I throw up heckapunches Elias same here DM Taranis goes after the mites. DM Ok DM well, some eyes peek cautiously out from the far wall... DM And shortly thereafter several more come running out from the darkness. DM two of them grab daggers, turn to move towards the bridge, and start cutting at it. Elias I shoot at them DM The remaining three pull out darts and throw them at the most obvious target, Trip. Elias the ones cutting the bridge to be specific DM !try 0 0 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot 1d20 < 8 = 8 > + 0 = 8 DiceBot 1d20 < 4 = 4 > + 0 = 4 DiceBot 1d20 < 18 = 18 > + 0 = 18 Trip try to get out of my predicament, clearly. DM Assuming that 18 hits... DM !roll 1d3-1;damage DiceBot rolls dice for DM : (damage) 1d3 < 2 = 2 > - 1 = 1 DM A dart barely grazes Trip. DM Ok, Elias and Bolgan now undelay? Elias yus Elias I'm aiming for one of the ones cutting the bridge DM k Bolgan I suppose I should try getting over DM Rolll it Elias !try 6 DiceBot rolls attempts for Elias DiceBot 1d20 < 17 = 17 > + 6 = 23 DM A hti DM *hit Elias !roll 1d8 DiceBot rolls dice for Elias : 1d8 < 2 = 2 > = 2 Elias damn DM The wound from the arrow scabs and heals over almost immediately. Bolgan Trip Bummer. DM Bolgan! Taranis Definitely time for me to undelay as well Ilya So hang on Bolgan how many rounds does it take to cross the bridge Ilya You skipped Ilya Ilya He had an init of 13 DM Ilya had a standard action to prepare. Ilya Ok Ilya And now DM He has not had an action since then. Ilya We're in the init cycle, right? Ilya Hm Ilya Well ok Ilya drew his longbow I guess DM Taranis cast Mage Armor, and has also not acted since then. Bolgan I don't think I can meaningfully act yet, so I continue delaying I guess DM Bolgan : standard movement across the bridge with a climb check. DM And there is enough room to get around Trip if that's in question. Bolgan I mean the mites in the way on the other side Bolgan if trip can stand on the bridge I suppose I can too Bolgan fine Bolgan climb check: Bolgan !try 2 DiceBot rolls attempts for Bolgan DiceBot 1d20 < 17 = 17 > + 2 = 19 DM success! Trip Yeah, am I stable in this spot or do I need to move? Bolgan and I suppose if that's a standard action my turn is done Trip I'll go to the mite-y side if there is flanking company. DM That was a full round. Trip Thank you Bolgan DM Ok, next up is Ilya Ilya shoots at one of the mites cutting the bridge DM k Ilya !try 3 DiceBot rolls attempts for Ilya DiceBot 1d20 < 9 = 9 > + 3 = 12 DM A hit Ilya !roll 1d8+2 DiceBot rolls dice for Ilya : 1d8 < 4 = 4 > + 2 = 6 Ilya Arrow'd DM Quite arrow'd DM Was that #1 or #2? DM And in the meantime, next up is Taranis! Taranis steps up and begins casting Sleep DM k Ilya THat was the same one that Elias shot DM Still waiting on Ilya's answer, and Trip is up. DM Elias did no damage to either. Ilya Oh DM or rather, did no damage period Ilya #2, then DM k Elias bowplomacy failed us DM 2 is splatted DM Trip is up Aleksei (I have to afk for 5min, Aleksei will shoot crossbow @ +1 for 1d8 and reload, Ilya will also shoot) DM Oh, was aleksei delaying? DM no, Aleksei cast SoF Aleksei Yep Aleksei He drew his crossbow and then cast SoF DM k. Trip! Aleksei afk Trip I would like to get past Bolgan, acrobat past the mites to be on the off side of #4 Trip So that there is some room for Bolgan DM sneak around the mites, eh? Trip or someone else DM Well, let's start with a DC 5 climb check to get over the bridge. Trip er, I mean opposite side of #3 DM Let's see. Trip So rolling through 1 and 3 DM That's… a climb check to get over the bridge, and 3 acrobatics checks to not provoke. Trip This will be fun. Trip !try -5 DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 17 = 17 > - 5 = 12 Trip Is that right for the climb check? DM err, +str… but that's a success. Taranis seems too low a modifier… but DC 5 means you pass fine DM DC 5 is the target value. Trip I have 0 strength anyways. DM Ok, so that'd be a +0, either way a pass DM and 3 acrobatics checks. Trip !try 8 8 8;wheeeeeee DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 8 = 21 DiceBot 1d20 < 2 = 2 > + 8 = 10 DiceBot (wheeeeeee) 1d20 < 11 = 11 > + 8 = 19 DM You trivially sumersault past mite #1, but as you're moving around #3 he gets a jab in at you. DM You manage to get up to there. DM Oh… wait, those were the ones that threw darts... DM and are now unarmed Trip That works. DM nm DM You're there. DM You see…. Taranis also no reason why failing the move without provoking stops you (short of, say, a trip attempt succeeding) DM "If you attempt to move through an enemy’s space and fail the check, you lose the move action and provoke an attack of opportunity." Trip Well, I might be better off in that top spot anyway DM Within the room, one of the mites is riding a tick about the size of a dog. Trip If that's okay. Taranis Well, I didn't realize it was an attempt to go through as opposed to around DM f'ref http://www.d20pfsrd.com/_/rsrc/1266040163392/config/app/images/PZO9031- MountedMite.jpg?height=400&width=344 DM err, right, that's only through. DM nm Trip Can I draw a weapon at least? Trip Or do I still get to make an attack? DM Let's see… 30 ft move, halved for acrobatics. Taranis draw a weapon definitely DM Looks like north of #3 is within a 30 ft move… so both. DM Roll the attack. Trip !try 7 DiceBot rolls attempts for Trip DiceBot 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 7 = 12 DM In addition to the mounted tick, you see four additional ticks scattered throughout the cavern, scrambling for weapons. Trip at one DM A hit Trip #1 DM No sneak though. Trip Sigh. I was not invisibly flipping. Trip !roll 1d6 DiceBot rolls dice for Trip : 1d6 < 5 = 5 > = 5 Trip but I'll take it DM Enough damage to drop it. Trip Whew. One less to gang up on us. DM And back up to the top.

Bolgan !try 4 DiceBot rolls attempts for Bolgan DiceBot 1d20 < 14 = 14 > + 4 = 18 DM The sack comes apart as it strikes Bolgan, covering him in a sticky and extremely smelly substance. Aleksei ew DM The noxious mixture quickly hardens, and although he manages to avoid getting stuck to the ropes, it makes it harder for him to move, imposing a -2 penalty to hit and -4 penalty to dex. DM As for damage to trip... DM !roll 3d3-2 DiceBot rolls dice for DM : 3d3 < 2 3 1 = 6 > - 2 = 4 DM That much. Trip Good.

Aleksei Or is that a hit somehow DM In fact, you might say that that roll wouldn't hit anything smaller than the broad side of a barn. DM Fortunately, what you're trying to touch is in fact, at least as large as the broad side of a barn. Taranis Fortunately for Aleksei, this is in fast bigger than that Aleksei Wonderful Aleksei Skitters is afflicted with chaos DM Noted DM Tick tock DM !try 7;tickAtTrip DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot (tickAtTrip) 1d20 < 4 = 4 > + 7 = 11 DM !try 2;dartAtTaranis DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot (dartAtTaranis) 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 2 = 15 DM let me know if that's a hit, and either way, Elias is up! Elias sigh....poor skitters DM Skitters seems a little too riled up at this point. Elias yeah I figured Taranis that does hit me, yes Bolgan hemadbro DM He's getting sliced at, and the bad man is touching him in places. Elias reluctantly, elias shoots an arrow at the poor thing Aleksei is, after all, a bad touch cleric Elias because somehow I doubt anything else will work Elias !try 7 DiceBot rolls attempts for Elias DiceBot 1d20 < 19 = 19 > + 7 = 26 Elias right Elias of course.

DM Aleksei! Mikmek does a little dance DM And on the assumption that Aleksei won't do anything to stop the tick from taking another attack... Aleksei channels energy Aleksei Everyone gets this much heals: Aleksei !roll 1d6 DiceBot rolls dice for Aleksei : 1d6 < 3 = 3 > = 3 DM !try 7;tick@Trip DiceBot rolls attempts for DM DiceBot (tick@Trip) 1d20 < 15 = 15 > + 7 = 22 DM !roll 1d6+6 DiceBot rolls dice for DM : 1d6 < 3 = 3 > + 6 = 9 DM And an attempted grapple.

DM and the remaining 2 mites pose practically no threat. DM So. Bolgan did you try to confirm a crit without a d20 just now Bolgan oh there it is Trip huzzah. No longer grappled. DM So... DM All threats neutralized. Taranis so call them dead in another round of punching/axing DM Now that you're no longer in danger of being smitted, you're able to get Aleksei out of the pit. DM And everyone else has no trouble climbing up/out DM and/or across the chasm. Ilya Wonderful Aleksei Have some more heals guys: Aleksei !roll 2d6 DiceBot rolls dice for Aleksei : 2d6 < 4 2 = 6 > = 6 Aleksei I am now out of channels Aleksei So DM The centerpiece of this room is a rickety table held together with twine, and covered with some filty tablecloth. DM Mounds of dirt and twigs and gravel are heaped onto the tablecloth. DM (Anyone who cares to can roll an int check) Taranis !try 5 DiceBot rolls attempts for Taranis DiceBot 1d20 < 7 = 7 > + 5 = 12 Trip Yay. Less dying. DM Ok, and follow that up with a Knowledge[Geography] check if you would. Bolgan !try 0 DiceBot rolls attempts for Bolgan DiceBot 1d20 < 20 = 20 > + 0 = 20 Bolgan <- fuckin smart DM The mounds of dirt and twigs are arranged into a precise pattern that Bolgan has clearly seen before. DM It appears to be a crude map of the immediate area. Taranis !try 11;geography DiceBot rolls attempts for Taranis DiceBot (geography) 1d20 < 16 = 16 > + 11 = 27 Bolgan boomshakalaka DM Two prominant features are clearly marked out on the "map", one of which you believe to be the sycamore tree that you're currently under. Taranis and the other is? DM Next to the map, weighed down by a small bloodstained ivory statuette of a crouching reptilian devil is a piece of paper. DM the other is… you don't know… but it's to the Southeast, not too far from the river. DM Under the table is a large sack. DM What languages do people speak? Bolgan common and dwarven, son DM And while people are answering... Ilya Common, Draconic (we suppose) Aleksei Common, Varisian Taranis Celestial, Common, Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Giant, Gnome, Goblin, Sylvan Aleksei You're a regular Daniel Jackson Mikmek Wanders into the room, immediately sees the statue and falls before it bowing. Ilya Oho. Ilya What's this now? DM The writing on the paper is in an elven script, but not in a language you recognize. Taranis Well then Taranis waves his staff and casts Comprehend Languages DM Indeed. DM The words resolve themselves before your eyes. DM There are two columns. DM One labeled "Us" DM the other labeled "Them" DM The "Them" column lists several items: "Magic Dust", "Lots of Coins", and "Shiny Human Ring" DM The "Us" column lists "Kobold Statue", "Lots of spears and coins" DM Meanwhile... Taranis Well, I guess we can pick up some cash and… I guess this statue is sharptooth Taranis or a representation thereof Mikmek Slowly stands up and very reverently begins to approach it. Ilya Let's ask Mikmek Old sharptooth! Our tribe is safe Taranis Detect Magic Trip We win. Trip At least at recovering kobold dieties. Mikmek We must get this back to Tartuk! Without Old Sharptooth to guide us, we would have been lost! DM Detecting reveals… DM nothing DM Absolutely nothing DM The statue is as mundane an item as they come. Taranis Well, maybe it's just a symbol Taranis shrugs Bolgan sometimes a cigar is just a smoke Bolgan or something Taranis And in the case of the <<rocket launcher>> you've got one majorly explosive cigar Mikmek Yes, a symbol. Tartuk speaks to old sharptooth through this! Mikmek Without the statue, he can not hear the god's demands! Mikmek He can not hear what it will take for us to win! Taranis Well then, let's make sure we've got rid of all these mites and gotten anything worth having from here. DM Ok, well, the only thing of relevance in the room is the sack. DM This contains 12 small spears, 193 cp, 120 sp, and 32 gp. Bolgan dolla dolla bills, y'all DM Hmm Ilya Well Ilya We should see if there are any more mites in here. Ilya Also check out what's at the other spot on this map. Taranis yep, the other branch DM Continued exploration past the room you're in right now begins to send you back upwards. DM Immediately past this room is what appears to be a living area, where several mites try to oppose you but are quickly brought down. DM There's not much of note here, except a handful of books written in the same elven script. DM Going further up, a noxious odor begins to permeate your nostrils… Taranis comprehend should still be up I think DM The wet looking floor of the cavern you enter into is crisscrossed by several shallow trenches, each containing trickles of putrid-looking fluid. DM Six foul mounds of compost and dung lie heaped about the room, each studded with a large number of spherical eggs. Ilya Um Ilya Are they breeding ticks Ilya Should we burn all of this Ilya I think we should DM K[nature] DM Whatever script the books are written in, they cover a variety of subjects. Most are on simple subjects that Taranis has a relatively solid understanding of. DM One or two though cover various aspects of breeding vermin. DM From ideal temperatures for growth, to feed mixes and whatnot. DM And with that, we will break for tonight. Taranis Well Taranis Those will go to Elias Bolgan fire is a pretty generally applicable solution to things DM As for the eggs, roll up a quick K[Nature] if you would. Mikmek left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). Trip Burn it. Burn it all. DM Also, progressing even further up takes you to the junction, and eventually out of the sycamore. DM The tree is, you believe, clear of Mites. DM Mikmek dances in response to this. Ilya Wonderful DM We'll deal with the eggs next week. Ilya Ok Ilya left the room. DM Any questions/etc? DM If not, then g'night all DM is now known as xthehome Trip xthehome? xthehome Can't use the same nick across several machines. Bolgan pacem Bolgan left the room (quit: Quit: Page closed). Trip left the room (quit: Ping timeout: 121 seconds). You are now known as PhelanArcetus Aleksei left the room. Elias left the room (quit: Quit: ).
