CLOSED Pathfinder: Rise of the Runelords, Burnt Offerings

[frostrune]

Jovik rolls backwards from the bars into an upright position.
'You could have told me the plan" he says half joking, half annoyed at Jokad as he draws his bow and fires at Nualia.

"What plan?" Jokad deadpans as he calmly draws another arrow to fire at the half-demon.

OOC: Not as a complaint, but a gentle reminder to Hewligan ...

Damn you and your pesky rogue abilities! The truth is, I am incompetent, but I put a jolly good show on to make it look like I half know what I am doing

Nualia

OOC: Init order: Jokad, Danth, Jovik, Nualia (14), Kael (9).

Jokad sends an arrow curving through the air. it slams into the shoulder of Nualia, causing the woman to unleash a scream of pain. Danth moves quickly, sheathing his sword and drawing his crossbow. Jovik follows up with another arrow that lances into the side of the demonic woman. Her fury is unmistakable.

She turns to the north and flees into the room (single 5' step to move into the room).

"Who's god is weak?" calls Danth after the fleeing woman. "I give you this last chance to surrender yourself; if you instead choose to continue on this self-destructive path, your life will come to an end this very day."

With a shrug, the young cleric glances at Jokad. "Now how do we get her out of there?" he asks, his voice low so as not to be overheard if Nualia is still listening.

"What?" asks an incredulous Jovik "Stand for Sarenae Danth. Jokad let's get this gate up and get after her! Let us finish this now, we cannot afford for her to escape, she is hurt and her guard dog os dead, quickly now before she summons more demonic help!" urges Jovik

 

[frostrune]

"HA!" Jokad howls after the retreating woman.

He quickly slings his bow and retrieves his sword and shield.

"Now how do we get here out of there?"

Jokad calmly waits for the trap cycle to run its course then attmpts to kick the chunk of statue free when the floor tilts open again.

"She's probably got one more surprise for us so be wary."

 

[Rhun]

Danth looks at his crossbow and frowns that he didn't get his own shot off. With a shrug, the priest shoulders the weapon and moves to retrieve his shield before turning his attention back to helping the others get the bars out of the way.

Rhun - if you think Danth (due to initiative order in the round that the yeth died) could have got his crossbow ready then and would have time for a shot, then please make the roll and post it here. I didn't walk through the order to see, but when I saw that you hadn't made an attack roll I assumed it was because you didn't have sufficient actions left. We can always update the previous post. Trust me, your crossbow shot is not going to kill her

 

[Rhun]

OOC: It is fine Hewligan...between putting down his shield, sheathing his sword, and then drawing and loading the crossbow, there is no way he would have got his shot off.

Jokad watches the floor. Danth moves beside him. When it clicks the two men instinctively hunch and prepare. The floor slides open and together then push with their right feet, dislodging the large stone torso into the open space that has been revealed.

Within seconds the trap has cleared. Far below the echo of stone hitting water filters up. The trap is deep, that much is clear.

OOC: Nualia has moved into the northern room. You can take 20 to stick the trap open, but that leaves the glaives moving. Or you can take 20 to cleave the glaives, or Jovik can take 25 to disarm (and taking 20 is fine on this if his bonus is sufficient - I haven't checked).

Sorry for the short post - I was out tonight on business until 10pm, and the same again tomorrow.
