(Inactive) Psion's Return to the Tomb of Horrors (IC)

[Fenris2]

You still need to roll a reflex save to get it off in time.

OOC: Though he had a standard action free, ah well, roll away then. McDuff.

With a reflex roll to pull it off before you get mashed. Sorry, should have been clearer.

Doorgath looks amazed then he grabs his friend. At the last moment, however, he understands that Reisha is in danger, too, but he can do nothing. His face shines with anger.

Counter-info: I won't be away, as I thought.
Reflex save for me: 30 (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=867705)

[SBLOCK]I'll send us back to the main chamber, next to the fountain with the dolphin statue and off to the side of the doors.

Here's my reflex save: Reflex Save. (1d20+10=16)

Erg. Not too great...[/SBLOCK]

Okay, let's finish this...

Garrel reflex save (1d20+15=29)

Davreya... you gain +2 for making the listen check and +1 for trap sense. You barely make it.
[/sblock]

Garrel sees the boulder rolling at him, and activates his cloak just in time for the boulder to roll over where he was.

Peja motions at the wall and creates a recess for the party to jump into... which most of them do.

Davreya tries to Dimension Door, but sees that he's not going to have time at the last moment, and leaps aside.

Ari leaps into the niche and looks back to see Peja just a moment too late... and then, with but a thought, fate is rewoven at Peja reacts just in time to leap in as the rock barrels by.

Doorgath and Reisha are last to leap in, with Doorgath's bear form still protruding a bit and Reisha is protruding a lot. Reisha lets out a snarl as the boulder strikes him.

[sblock=Doorgath]
Doorgath takes 67/2 = 33 points

Reisha takes 58 points. I am using the size based massive damage rules, so no problem there.

Kull is a little confused by all the action that has just happened.

[sblock=Psion]Psion, did I not have to make a Reflex save or did you just make one for me? I didn't post a roll (I haven't been online in the last 2 days) but you didn't give me any damage either.

Also what would be my chances of stopping the boulder instead so that Doorgath and Reisha don't cop a pounding? Small to nil?[/sblock]

 

[Psion]

[sblock=Kull]
Yeah, I rolled one for you; I guess I forgot to link the roll. You got a 22, counting trap sense.

Kull reflex save (1d20+14=22)

Since Reisha and Doorgath are large, there is no avoiding damage totally. You could give a Reisha a +2 by aiding him, but it wouldn't be enough.

With a smile of relief Garrel slips ethereal and moves up behind the giant, sizing him up he casts righteous might and then perpairs to drop back un-etheral to give that slave taking giant (Goliaths and giants don't get along very well ;-) a real beating - or so he hopes.

A map so you can consider your situation... the giant is not alone. Note that despite identical "counters", the giant at the head of the passage is female and the two to the south appear younger. The rest of the party is down the passage ATM... will place their "counters" on the map as soon as they move up.

The steeply ascending tunnel opens up ahead onto a ledge looking into the mountain valley. You see a young female giant where the boulder was; an older male and two juvenile looking males lie beyond the tunnel mouth. These giants look much larger than the hill giants you saw below.

Hearing Garrel's warning and quickly jumping into a newly formed alcove (thanks Ari!) gets the blood flowing through Kullrund's veins again. After the boulder passes he moves back into the passageway and charges up towards to see what exactly is waiting for him.

[sblock=Psion]Psion, I'm not sure if Kull can get out past the 2 Dire Bears. If he can then he will draw his falchion and start running up towards where the boulder came from. If I can't I will run along directly behind them.

How long will it take Kull to reach the top?[/sblock]
