[Adventure]: The Missing Professor (DM: H.M.Gimlord, Looking for a Judge)

[Velmont]

"I started to be bored" tells Gloom as he activate his sword power and walk into the room "Who want to die?"

[SBLOCK=OOC]For the items, a Verve armor +2 is worth 4200, the Belt of Sonnlinor Righteousness is 1800. Total 6000. 20% of 6000 is 1200. I am not sure how you reach 12000... not that I don't wnat the money

Did we got an extended rest or a short rest since last encounter?

Initiative (1d20+5=18) In case of a tie, hero's first? I'll assume that.

GM: [MENTION=44459]Luinnar[/MENTION]: Sorry to be so dense, but how are you getting >+20 damage modifiers? I'm looking at your CS, and I'm not getting it.

 

[Luinnar]

GM: @Luinnar : Sorry to be so dense, but how are you getting >+20 damage modifiers? I'm looking at your CS, and I'm not getting it.

OOC: Sorry, should have been more clear +6 from STR, +2 power bonus from Virgil's aura, +2 item bonus from iron armbands, +3 feat bonus with a cold weapon from Silvery Glow feat, +2 with CA from Light Blade Expertise (enemies in Virgil's aura grant CA to Draglin), +3 from weapon enhancement, +2 from gloves of cold, +1 with Two Weapon Fighting, +2 from tempest technique=23 and +5 when they have vulnerability to cold because of lasting frost.

ooc: ...Holy Crap!... Don't mess with Draglin

 

[H.M.Gimlord]

The goons obviously did not count on armed resistance, "What the..." Draglin nearlly kills the Steel Dragon emmissary outright.

Before the dragonborn can finish the job, he pulles a smoke bomb out and lets it go just in time.

He takes a few blind swipes at the dragonborn, but to no avail as he slides further into the smoke.

In the confusion, Sworc ducks back into the back hall of the apothecary.

Meanwhile the remaining goons attempt to box Seraphine out as the fire spreads.

One of them gets in a lucky blow, but it barely makes a mark on the radiant rogue.

GM: Well, enjoy your free XP fellas. Boy, did I lowball this one .

I demand a reroll! Three Nat 1's in the same roll set (3rd being the CA damage). I think I'm going to need a Level 30 solo in here just to make this encounter challenging. @Iron Sky . I know. I am well aware that the record is >9 in a row. Just complaining after a 256HP NPC was reduced to 1HP in the first round.

ooc: ...Holy Crap!... Don't mess with Draglin

OOC: And Max makes him stronger...faster...better, or however the saying goes @H.M.Gimlord if it makes you feel any better my PC regularly trounce even the PL+4 encounters (with boosted enemies!) I throw at them. Oh and I have 9 fire resistance thanks to the new sword. Should of mentioned it, sorry. I don't think enemies having pocket summonable dragons statues are out of the question in paragon if you want to try that

Hey where did you go? Draglin shouts blinking. Get back here! He tries to swing his double blade and breath his icy breath at them, but the enemies easily leap aside.

GM: Oh don't worry. I've got better things than that in mind .

OOC: @Luinnar , did you count in the 5 extra damage from Seraph's ongoing due to Draglin's cold vulnerability?

OOC: Sorry I don't understand, did you mean H.M.Gimlord?

 

[H.M.Gimlord]

GM: @Iron Sky : I believe I did. The OG Cold was OG 5 Cold, So I just turned it into OG 10 Cold so I wouldn't forget. The dude's pretty much toast anyway .
