[LPF] Tower of Power

[omnitricks]

The tengu waited. Thinking of what to do as the tiefling cried out in pain. He could help Aeron but if he failed, he would only be wasting time. Thinking the best way would be to kill the crocodile before freeing his compatriot, Paskell waited for Samad to move into position and get the crocodile's attention so that he might throw in a few effective stabs into the beast.

[sblock=OOC]Well Fallout said he was moving in to flank but did not tell the new position so I'm just going to assume that he moved in a way to make the most out of the flanks. If we are already flanking now, I don't have to move or if he moved to H7, Paskell will take a 5ft step to the right side and flank.
Attack sword: 1d20+2=20
Attack beak: 1d20-3=9
damage & Sneak Attack: 1d8=2, 1d6=5

Also did Samad crit? I think the confirmation was wayyyyy higher than the croc's AC.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC]Oh right, whoops. He moved to H7 before attacking. [/sblock]

Samad slashes down on the crocodiles throat, opening a huge gash. As it turns to bite the desert warrior, Paskell takes advantage of the brief opening to stab the beast through its eye and into its brain, killing it instantly. The creature twitches once ... twice ... and then lies still. The massive jaws grow slack and it releases the tiefling magus, who immediately clamps his hands around his leg and hisses in pain. He looks up at you and shakes his head.

"I'll take a tap from the wand, but the muscle's torn and will need time to heal naturally. I'm afriad I'm not going to be any good in a fight for weeks, probably." He looks up the stairs. "If you want to finish it, you'll have to do it without me. Sorry"

The troglodyte in the corner is bleeding badly and has fallen unconscious. It is no threat at all.

Behind the dead crocodile, you can see daylight. The roof of the tower, and whatever is up there, is all that lies before you and the completion of your contract.


[sblock=GM]Crocodile dies. Even minimum damage off the crit would have killed it. Upstairs is the roof of the tower.

I'm taking Aeron out of the adventure. You two are on your own for the boss fight. Oops, did I say boss fight? Haha, I was just kidding! What boss fight? There's no boss fight![/sblock][sblock=Map]

"That wasn't too hard..." Paskell said before putting away his weapons. Looking up the stairs along with Aeron he asked "of course you wouldn't mind but what about us? Whatever is in charge of this thing is definitely going to be a handful for just two of us" because its a freaking giant crocodile! Of course the tengu might just be exaggerating a little bit.

Thinking a little bit Paskell took out his rope and started tying up the unconscious troglodyte. "You can take can take care of this I guess. We'll get you on our way down" if they survived that is. If they survive... "Hmmm..." Considering they are going to need all the help they can get "do you think you can lend me that chainshirt we found earlier?"
[sblock=OOC]The masterwork chainshirt that we gave Aeron that is The less ACP I have the better unless Samad wants to borrow it?[/sblock]

"Of course, if that is what you wish." Samad withdrew the wand from his belt and knelt over Aeron's huddled form. The wand bathed his leg in light, and soon only a darker red hue betrayed the former presence of its wound. He glanced at both reptiles, then gestured towards the unconscious one, "Should I heal that one too? It could be that they were only following the orders of another when they attacked us, and may be deserving of mercy."
[sblock=OOC]Nah, you go ahead and take it. Also, can I get that dagger back?[/sblock][sblock=Samad's Mini Stats]

GM: So .... here's the thing. You guys had enough experience for level 2 a while ago, but my feeling was that it was awkward for characters level up in the middle of a single-day adventure. However, Satin Knights pointed out that this is actually kind of a jerk move on my part since that would essentially gyp you guys of ever being level 2 -- you'd shoot straight from 1st to 3rd after the adventure concluded. And he's right. That would kind of suck. Therefore, I'm officially changing my mind. Go ahead and level up to 2. Your current xp totals as of today are 2786. If you are taking levels in a spontaneous caster class like bard, you have immediate access to your new spells. If you're going to level up as a wizard, there will be a convenient spellbook in the dwarven tomb next door. Any questions, let me know, and sorry for not leveling you up sooner.

Paskell looked at the unconscious thing that would be trying its best to kill him under different circumstances and said "no. We'll need to keep the healing for ourselves if we need it." If it lives, it lives. If it dies, it dies. Looking around he thought "maybe we should clear this floor. We haven't looked through the other door yet. Wouldn't be good if something else caught Aeron here" and then the tengu took out his whistle and handed it over to the tiefling. "Blow this if you need help."

Taking out his weapons again he headed towards the stairs. "So do we want to check out the other room or go up? Either way whatever it is up there is going to realize that there is something up" especially when its pet doesn't return. "Better if we fight it on our terms."
[sblock=OOC]Cool, finally I'll be able to be competent at combat! Sooooo, can we borrow the chainshirt? [/sblock]

GM: Yeah, you can grab the masterwork chain shirt. The other door on this level leads to the same room you were in before. This level is cleared.

 

[omnitricks]

[sblock=OOC]Well we haven't looted it yet sooooo...I'll let Fallout decide on this one.[/sblock]

 

[Commander_Fallout]

[sblock=OOC]Well, it's a tower, so unless we take the express elevator down, we should be able to come back and look for any loot. Really, I just want to finish this adventure already. [/sblock]
