[LPF] Faith and Good Works

[Maidhc O Casain]

Bren sees Fury's sprint to the next crystal and tries to figure the best way to support his friends, to keep them in the fight. He, too, takes off across the room. He stops his run where he can reach both Fury and Cytheria fairly easily and calls on the Gods of Irthos to heal his companions.

[sblock=Actions]

• Move: to I12 (30' from each ally, and can reach it w/out provoking)
• Standard: Channel (3d6=16) Healing for Bren, Fury and Cytheria (Exclude all Wrathspawn & the Mad Scientist)

[Systole]

"You want to play the hard game? My brain is stronger than your finger! My magic hat still has many rabbits!" the doctor shouts, and disappears into the machinery. Frenzied hammering rings out from the above.

The wrathspawn next to Fury follows the rogue, but breaks off as Bren steps into its intended path. It bites at the priest, but misses. Another wrathspawn steps up and slashes at the battle dancer, inflicting a minor wound. The wrathspawn that Fury passes attempts to strike at him but misses. Enraged, it follows him and shrieks in his ear as he attempts to disable the next device.

... Doktor Rattegift ...


[sblock=GM]Only one wrathspawn spawns this round.

Cythera hit for 8 points of damage.

Rattegift disappears again.

Fury has a -2 circumstance penalty due to the wrathspawn messing with him.

Disabling the crystal mechanism is a DC 24 Disable Device check which can be made untrained and with weapons in hand. MWK lockpick bonuses do not count here, but Trapfinding does. This is a full round action which provokes AoOs. Alternatively, the crystals are HP 30 with DR 10/bludgeoning. If you attack the crystals, don't bother rolling to hit. They're AC4 and you're level 9. Let's just take it as a given that you can won't miss something the size of a small garage.

[Maidhc O Casain]

"Looks like some of them have noticed you, Fury! The spell's still active, so it might keep others off your back. Just try to stay focused . . . remember what you did to the last one!

"Both of you, try not to separate any farther than you are; you're at the limit of my healing range."

[sblock=Actions]

• Move: None
• Swift: Activate Ki AC Bonus (AC: 26)
• Standard: Inspire Competence (Fury): +2 Disable Device

Orlando Furioso, Venzan bravo

The din of the wrathspawn shrieking in his ears as he works is almost enough to throw the rogue off his game. Fury frowns in dismay as he wrenches a few pieces out of alignment but to no effect. A bit more work and the advice from Bren and the mechanism begins to show signs that it will soon break down like the previous.

"Gods curse it," he mutters as he slips and bangs knuckles on the mechanism. He briefly wonders what the not-so-good Doctor Rattegift has in store for them but the wrathspawn threatening his back, however, quickly distracts him from that line of thought. "I'll put you down, you vat-grown lump of useless lard!" It isn't certain if Fury is talking to the mechanism, the wrathspawn, or Doctor Rattegift.

[sblock=OOC/Actions]Full Round: disable crystal device: 1d20+20=25
Forgot to apply the -2 circumstance penalty to the roll which makes his attempt a 23 and a failure. Edit: And, apparently, also neglected to add Bren's +2 putting it back at 25 and a success. (Thanks, PM).[/sblock]

Cythera e'Kiernan, Bronze Dragon Disciple

Cythera cries out as she gets injured by an aberration again. The cuts are starting to add up, yet she keeps dancing and putting arcane energy into her glaive.

"I shall dance that way then, Bren." She tumbles past the current foe and get clear to slash across powerfully and try to eliminate the wrathspawn accosting the priest.

She whirls the polearm around once more and is ready to strike out at any of the foes that comes near.

Fury rips a handful of pipes from the crystal assembly, and then another ... and a third and the crystal finally flickers, goes dark, and cracks. From above, the hammering continues, and there's a grind of metal on metal. "Yes! There it is! More upgrades! Well, and some unfortunate rapid obsolenscence, but the important thing is ... upgrades! A-HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

The remaining two crystals pulse, and the remaining wrathspawn roar with pain as their bodies rework and re-knit themselves a second time, leaving them as almost skinless monstrosities. The strain is too much for the one that Cythera had already damaged, and it explodes in a shower of black gore. The others advance on Cythera, snapping and slashing. She strikes with her glaive, and the weapon skids off the creature's bloody and exposed musculature, before finding a weak spot and driving into the creature's heart. It drops to it's knees and falls.

... Doktor Rattegift ...


[sblock=GM]Wrathspawn at H11 hits Bren for 11. Wrathspawn at H14 hits Cythera for 12. EDIT: Wrathspawn at H14 is dead due to use of spell.

Wrathspawn are now AC 22/18 FF, so Cythera's AoO is a now a miss. Feint DC is still a 15. They have 29 hp apiece, but are now taking a rather lot of bleed damage each round but are even more dangerous. No new wrathspawn decanted this round.

Disabling the crystal mechanism is a DC 24 Disable Device check which can be made untrained and with weapons in hand. MWK lockpick bonuses do not count here, but Trapfinding does. This is a full round action which provokes AoOs. Alternatively, the crystals are HP 30 with DR 10/bludgeoning. If you attack the crystals, don't bother rolling to hit. They're AC4 and you're level 9. Let's just take it as a given that you can won't miss something the size of a small garage.[/sblock][sblock=Tomb Map]

[perrinmiller]

OOC: I want to use Gallant Inspiration to turn that AoO miss in to a hit if I can. Please roll for me if so.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Bren shifts his position slightly, hoping to draw one of the creatures attention to give the battle-maiden a better chance at its flank. "Yes! Keep it up, Fury . . . only a couple more to go!" With this encouragement to his friend, he once more calls on the energies of his gods to grant healing for his allies and himself.

[sblock=Actions]

• Move: 5' Step to J13
• Swift: Activate Ki AC Bonus (AC: 26)
• Free: Maintain Advice to grant Fury a +2 Bonus on his next Disable Check
• Standard: Channel Energy (3d6=5) - Excluding Wrathspawn, of course.
