[Adventure] The Second Day of Mourning (Judge: renau1g)

[Kalidrev]

[sblock=Dimsdale] Thanks for taking over Gurdan while I was insanely busy. I've been working on finals (it'll be over with after thursday) and didn't have time for anything other than work or study. [/sblock]
[sblock=Skill Challenges]
Round 1:

Skill Challenge 1: Engine Fire (1/6 successes 0/3 failures)

Masumi (20/39 HP) used Arcana and with the Conductors help gets a success.

Skill Challenge 2: Fire in the wealthy cabin (2/6 successes 0/3 failures)

Garrick (19/40 HP) and Alexia (29/43) use Arcana in concert and gain a success.

Grryth (28/40 HP; regen halted [not bloodied]) used Athletics to gain a success.

Skill Challenge 3: Fire in the middle class cabin (1/6 successes 0/3 failures).

Lo-Kag (19/45 HP) used Intimidate on the group of passengers, and with their help, manages to gain a success.

Gurdan (9/57 HP) used Perception to spot a way for Lo-Kag and some of the passengers to put out some of the fire in the middle-class cabin. This gives LO-KAG a +2 bonus on his next skill check if it's used on Skill Challenge 3.

NOTE: No further uses of intimidate can be used to gain a success on Skill Challenge 3. An attempt to further intimidate the passengers will result in an automatic failure.

[sblock=Round 2] Go ahead and start round 2 all, I'll check this again when I can (probably tomorrow morning and then again on Friday).[/sblock]

ooc: Alexia is super-good at Aiding Another, so I'm just going to wait for some other people to roll and I'll help out where needed.

 

[Kalidrev]

ooc: Sounds good THB. LOL, btw, I find it funny that you area ALWAYS the first to post after an extended break of at least 1 day. I appreciate the attentiveness to the game and I hope you are enjoying it as much as I am!

 

[hornedturtle]

Occ:Is this reasonable?

Masumi taking a clue from Alexia and her recent success Masumi uses Residuum mixed with her own blood in attempt to make a summoning circle to allow her bring forth a stronger and more stable creature of the cold.

Arcana 1d20+11=13
Using 10Gp of Residuum?

Occ:A spectacular failure!

[sblock=ooc]
I'm reaching here...any ideas would be helpful
[/sblock]


Lo-Kag notices the smoke filling the cabin. To vent the smoke, he leaps into the air with sword in hand and attempts to cut a whole in the ceiling of the cabin.

[sblock=skill check]
athletics check: 1d20+10+2=32

[Kalidrev]

[sblock=Masumi & Alexia] Unless Masumi uses the conductor for this round AND Alexia uses Aid Other to give Masumi a total of a +4 bonus to her skill check, you guys will rack up a failure. I'll give you guys until tomorrow to make this decision and then will count it as a failure if these don't happen (or if Alexia manages somehow to fail her aid other...not likely, lol) [/sblock]

Alexia sees what Masumi is attempting and rushes to to the deva's side. "You've almost got it, kiddo. Not bad for a first attempt," she says with a smile that borders on a grimace.

Well, aren't you a wonderful influence. You've got half the group dabbling in this. Hopefully she'll forget all about it the next time she changes faces. The Karrn shakes her head, and notices the conductor standing nearby.

[sblock=If the conductor has any open wounds]"Excuse me sir, but I need to borrow this," Alexia says calmly as she wipes up some of his blood with her fingers. She looks down at her bloody hand and murmurs, "It really is necessary."[/sblock]

[sblock=If the conductor does not have any open wounds]She grabs his hand and forces his palm upward while looking into his eyes, "I'm very sorry, sir, but I need to borrow some of this. Our lives depend on it." Alexia trembles, takes a deep breath, and gives the conductor a shallow cut across his palm. She dabs her fingers in his blood before releasing his palm. "Again, I am so sorry," she repeats miserably.[/sblock]

Alexia shakes her head again and focuses her attention on the task at hand. With a mixture of the deva's, the conductor's, and her own blood she finishes the circle. "There, that should do it..." she says shakily.

[sblock=Mechanics]Arcana to Aid Masumi. Hey look, I didn't roll a 1. The conductor bonus is going to Masumi, not my Aid Another attempt, despite what the above may imply.[/sblock]

 

[Kalidrev]

[sblock=Masumi/Alexia] Were you guys going up against skill challenge 1 or skill challenge 2? It wasn't clear from your description and you did not specify which it was. [/sblock]

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

ooc: 1, I assume.

 

[Kalidrev]

ooc I thought so too, but I'd just like to make sure from Horned Turtle before I continue.
