"What would you have us do? We're talking peacefully, we're not a dancing troupe." Orsik felt he needs to open new way to negotiate, but his ham-handed way with words didn't really help. "Elder was much better at words then me, maybe I should've listened while he spoke instead of questioned him?!" thinks young disbeliever. (Failure – secondary)
"Oye! We're not alone. The spirits stand with us." Braddock holds the craghammer in both hands, concentrating hard. His body shakes with the effort he puts forth. His craghammer glows in a myriad of lights in quick succession. Each of his companions feel a force change in the energy around them, lights flash into a brief image before the lights focus around his allies forms. A golden outline of a king before forming around Muzdum. A dark green image of an elemental around Rikka. A light green quick goblin warrior around Quan. A purple cackling and screaming image around Orsik. (Success - +2 to next primary skill check)
Rikka continued to make her way around the clearing, still keeping alert for any new threats (or new openings). (Success - +2 to next primary skill check)
| GM: | @pathfinderq1 : Rikka notices that around the edges of the mushroom forest is becoming denser if possible. She can glimpse movement out the corner of her eye, but can’t get a good look at what is causing the movement. |

Quan finally feels confident, perhaps overconfident. Look, all powerful being. Just allow us to go on our way, okay? (Failure)
"Ye ain't the kind o' folk that thinks right? It ain't hard big fella; listen: ye analize the facts, and then search for an answer to the problem. In this example, historical fact prove that when a giant monster faces a group o' seasoned adventurers, it might kill one or two, for melodrama, but in the end, its toasted." the dwarf says, "Now class, what's the answer for this problem here?" (Success - +2 to next primary skill check)
Verhig does not look amused.
”How droll.”, the something-more-than-a-behir says, laden with sarcasm. His back curls slowly around his massive torso. He suddenly leans forward, upper arms slamming the ground with enough force that all the heroes are knocked prone, even the hardy dwarves.
”Your words are hollow and empty! You have yet to convince me to spare your worthless souls. Time grows short!”, Verhig says menacingly, a golden-blue nimbus of lightning shrouds the giant reptile causing all the prone heroes’ to become charged with electricity.
[sblock=Skill Challenge] *GOAL: You are trying to convince Verhig as to why he shouldn’t eat you.
*Complexity: 3 (8 successes before 3 failures)
Status: Successes: 4

*DC: All DCs are listed below. All DCs for skills not listed are considered hard (DC 25).
*Skills: You can use a skill not listed below, only if you can explain it reasonably. Any explanation I feel doesn’t correspond with the given skill, I will impose a -2 penalty to it.
* Rules: The same rules apply for skill challenges as apply for encounters (48-hour rule, etc).
*Repeating the Same Skills: Any character repeating the same skill check in two successive rounds will impose a -2 cumulative penalty to the triggering roll (i.e. -2 for second check, -4 for third check, etc.)
*Critical Success: A natural 20 counts as 2 successes OR 1 success and remove 1 failure.
*Critical Failure: A Natural 1 automatically counts as 1 Failure, regardless of any modifiers.

Using the compendium rules, a roll of 10+1/2 the rolling PC’s level or higher grants a +2 to that player’s skill check, while a failure grants a -1 penalty to that player’s skill check. A successful aid another roll does not count towards the total number of successes.
