[MENTION=24380]Neurotic[/MENTION], I believe you counted -10hp from spawn 1 when instead it was spawn 3 that was attacked and that CaBaNa hit. (23 looks like 28 on the map) so the beast still has 10 hp. Sorry.


Cyr moves away from the great worm moving a bit aside to put some distance between himself and the melee. The then turns, raises his hands and invokes the powers of Astral Sea.

"From the sands of time, I call mighty oaks from their slumber."
At his words, the sand trembles for a moment and the great tree made of light comes out between two burrower spawn spreading it's branches over them and over his allies. The leaves fall, covering them all, burning the enemies and remaining stuck to his allies threatening more harm should they remain close.

[sblock=Actions]
Interrupt: Cyr uses Miraculous Fortune to reduce crit damage by 5, Joy gets +1 power bonus to her attack. I can slide one ally. Call it if you need it - not sure where everyone is right now.

Healed: 27 hp (wow)
Take 5 from being adjacent, take 5 from ongoing

Move: H28 (via L24 to avoid OA)
Standard: Falling Leaves vs Ref (Spawn 1; Spawn 2); radiant damage (1d20+12+1=29, 1d20+12+1=30, 2d8+7=23) - heh! :) - center in M27; if the target ends it's next turn adjacent to an ally it takes 5 radiant damage

Save vs Fire (1d20=13)

*As chaos erupts into the battlefield from the sands beneath there feet. Dust and dirt flying every which way possible. Kauldron raises his shield to attempt to defend but it is too late as searing hot flames tear into his flesh from super heating his own armor. He grunts his pain and spits out his now charred cigar onto the arena's floor.*

I wasn't done smoking that, yee bloody worm.

*He quickly maneuvers around the one burrower into a better position for himself. With a quick flash of his blade, he attacks both nearby worms. Mistiming the first he misses. Though the second gets slashed across it's mid-section. The close proximity to the two worms still has kauldron's armor super heated, as it goes with heat.*

OOC: Still no answer on movement question- I'll guess for now to avoid further delay ; also if someone bloodied or dropped a critter, take 3 temp HP- first come, first served)


When the intail chaos of fiery explosions and responding magics sorted itself out, Joy had to shake her head to clear it- even for her, this was a dizzying rush. With the worm distracted, she made a rush she wouldn't have tried otherwise, squeezing past Martelai and the worm's hot shell to a bit of clear space. She gave Lerrick a cheerful wave, and called "Good job there, you likely saved us all"- the cheerful compliment was backed with emotional energy, enough to give Lerrick a massive boost of confidence.
Then Joy turned back to work...

She raised her blade overhead and swirled it through the air- and there was a crackling boom of thunder, audible and palpable even to those in the stands. The burrower's massive bulk absorbed th blast, but one of the smaller worms was not so lucky, and it was hurled backwards. Then Joy began to sing, an eerie wordless keening that was the distilled essence of a thousand years of battlefield screams- whatever these worms might be, they still had some semblance of minds, and they could not help but respond; they threw themselves forward, even as the uncanny magic of the battlesong stole their strength and energy...

>Take 5 fire at start of turn= 28 HP

>Minor: Majestic Word for Lerrick, spend a surge for surge +6 HP and slide 1 (your choice of where)
>Standard: Shout of triumph (N/O/P, 23/24/25), vs. FORT, 1d20+10 vs. Burrower= 18 (miss); 1d20+9 vs. Spawn 4 (P25)= 23 (hit for 7 thunder and pushed 2, to N27) ; rolls Roll Lookup
>AP: Standard: Invitation to defeat, close burst 5, targets burrower and all 4 spawn (I think all are in range, but I might have missed a move- I'll roll for all, and if one of them isn't in range just don't use the roll); !d20+12 vs. Will=25, 31, 14, 26, 18 (hits all but spawn 2- those effected are pulled 5- no change for burrower, Spawn 1 to Q25, Spawn 3 to P24, Spawn 4 to P25; all enemies that are pulled adjacent are weakened- save ends; that part just effects the spawn, but see below); all enemies which are adjacent to Joy are weakened (that does include the burrower), and the first time each turn that each adjacent enemy takes damage, it takes an extra 5 psychic damage) this effect lasts until end of Joy's next turn, but has Sustain Minor) ; rolls Roll Lookup

Procedurally Generated
Match One: The Sandy Arena, Round 2

As the group scrambles to get away from the burrowers they respond chaotically... instinctively. One, heavily injured, burrows into the ground and doesn't immediately return. Another grabs Ootah with its hooked limbs, then bites him with a maw full of toxic heat, dropping the ranger again.

A third burrows into the ground then rises up again, burning Artemis but fortunately doing little to Ootah's body, still clutched in its fellow's hooks.

The last burrows after Brenwar, slamming into the paladin's redoubtable defenses.

The big burrower arches itself and dives into the ground, an unstable tide of earth knocking Brenwar about. Massive pincers blast up out of the earth again a short distance away, the burning hot shifting sands slamming Brenwar, Artemis, and Martelai around. So long is its body that its midsection still arches out of the sand nearby, radiating heat. To be caught between both exposed parts is like being trapped in an oven...

GM: @FourMonos , Artemis still took 5 fire damage for starting next to the Burrower as its Aura isn't an OA.

@dimsdale , I shifted Lerrick to O26 since O25 would have required a shift 2.

@Rapida , Brenwar is up 2 more hp than you had (you applied 3 damage per start-of-turn fire effect instead of 2).

@pathfinderq1 , if you want to be sure I see what you have to say, @ mention me - if everyone hasn't gone yet, I usually just skim the rounds to see if anyone did mention me. Spawn 3 was 6 away from Joy, so Inevitable Defeat didn't target it. Spawn 1 couldn't be pulled to Q25 since that would violate the rules of pulling. Pulled it to P25 instead... which meant Spawn 4 couldn't be pulled adjacent to Joy (again, because every square of pull must move the monster closer and that's not possible as they were positioned).

I applied Joy's 3 THP on bloodied/killed to Artemis since he bloodied worm 3.

I slid Lerrick to P26 so Joy could push worm 4 where she wanted.

Note that the Burrower is considered to occupy all the squares of its body for all purposes with the following exceptions: its midsection does NOT provoke OAs. Anywhere its auras overlap, the difficult terrain does NOT stack, but the fire damage DOES.


[sblock=Enemy Actions]Burrower Spawn 1: Stand up. Burrow into ground. Stealth 32, Lerrick's OA: 1d20+5=12 vs Spawn's 21 AC, miss.

Burrower Spawn 2: Claw Hooks(-2 marked, +2 CA): 29 vs Ootah's AC 23(+2 SW), hit, 14 damage and is grabbed. Burning Bite(vs grabbed target, -2 marked, +2 CA): 25 vs Ootah's 23 AC(+2 SW), hit, 14 fire and poison damage.

Burrower Spawn 3: Burrow to K24, Stealth 31. Burning Core(close burst 1): 27 vs Artemis Ref 17, hit, Nat1 vs Ootah. Artemis takes 9 fire damage and 5 ongoing fire(save ends).

Burrower Spawn 4: Shift to O25. Charge to N23 via Burrow, Stealth 18, Lerrick's OA: 1d20+5=23 vs Spawn's 21 AC, hit, 1d10=5/2=2 damage, 5 fire damage from Burrower's Aura reduced to 0 damage by fire resist. Claw Hooks(+2 CA, +1 charge)=18 vs Brenwar's 26 AC, miss. Saves: 11 vs weakened, saved.

Burrower: Burrow Up: Burrow Down(Close Burst 1 Attack): 23 vs Brenwar's 19 Fort, hit, 12 vs Joy's 16 Fort, miss. Brenwar takes 8/2=4 reduced to 1 damage and is slid 2. Burrower midsection replaces head. Burrow to K20-M22, Stealth 34, Burrow Up(Close Burst 1 Attack, +2 CA): 24 vs Martelai's 17 Fort, hit, 20 vs Brenwar's 19 Fort, hit, 15 vs Artemis' 15 Fort, hit, all take 13 damage (Brenwar's reduced to 10 damage) and slid 2. Bite(+2 CA): 24 vs Brenwar's 26 AC, miss, 21/2=10 fire and poison damage. AP(-2 mark): Take 9 radiant damage from Brenwar's Divine Sanction, 15 vs Artemis AC 21, miss, 12/2=6 fire and poison damage.[/sblock]

[sblock=Appease the Crowd]*As a minor action, a PC may make a skill check to wow the crowd. If they succeed at the check, they gain +2 to their next d20 roll if they beat the DC, plus +2 per 5 by which they beat the DC. If the check is failed, the PC takes a -2 penalty to their next d20 roll, -2 more per 5 by which they miss the DC.

I.E, if the DC is 15, 1-5 would be -6, 6-10 would be -4, 11-14 would be -2, 15-19 would be +2, etc.

*All skill DCs will start at 15 and each individual skill's DC goes up by 2 per time the skill is used as the crowd gets more jaded. The DCs go up at the end of the round in which they are used. The DCs do not drop between arena rounds.

*Any skill can be used, as long as the player can provide relevant character action to back up the roll.

Current Skill DCs:
All: 17[/sblock]

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
[sblock="Joy actions?"][MENTION=60965]Iron Sky[/MENTION], [MENTION=48394]pathfinderq1[/MENTION], Joy could've moved to P24 and do all she did before, couldn't she? Even if not by her own move, MetaVoid provided shift 1 to adjust her position. It would be nice to let her revoke the action as it is mostly canceled by your adjustments...but of course it requires some retconing.[/sblock]

Martelai quickly moves out of the fiery aura and blasts the wounded spawn. As it falls, it glows for merest of moments before small shards of ice fly toward all enemies.


"Haddar, come and sate your hunger, here are souls for you. Take your pick!"
The warlock concentrates and great maw made of darkness comes from above covering the arena, the stands everything.


For a moment, everything is dark and then it clears out with audible sigh of relief from the stands. Only worms are affected, some of the existing wounds pucker, but the great worm is covered in shadows that writhe over it for a few moments.

He then moves quickly away toward the second column. Except he's still in place. It looks like he split in two, both halves semi-transparent and wreathed in cold flames which quickly extinguish burrower's fires!

OOC: Can I slide them? Not sure about the order in which things happen: I get my pact boon, rod of corruption triggers and spreads the curse and then rod of avernus triggers and slides cursed enemies. If this is the case, I would slide them toward the big worm for area attack setup.

[sblock=Actions]

Standard: Eldritch blast vs Spawn 3 Ref 19 = 19 HIT; damage 15 KILL - all enemies are within 5, all are cursed via rod of corruption

Over the din of battle Brenwar yells to his allies, "Get a bit nearer and I shall request the protection of Palladys for the group."
OOC:
If everyone can get within 5 squares of Brenwar this turn I'll try to give some temporary hitpoints. Also, I can heal Artemis ([MENTION=88601]FourMonos[/MENTION]) with a Lay on Hands so don't start your turn and go unconscious on me.
People who would need to be closer: [MENTION=87106]MetaVoid[/MENTION] @Somebody (You just need to wake up, not move :p) [MENTION=82643]CaBaNa[/MENTION]
It is only 8 temporary hit points pending me connecting with my attack so prioritize it as you will.

[MENTION=53947]Iron[/MENTION]Sky is the fire damage aura 2 auras that do 5 each or 1 super aura that does 10? My DR would love to know.
EDIT: I screwed up a couple of notifications and can't fix them. oh, well.

[MENTION=60965]Iron Sky[/MENTION], what is the meaning of little numbers on the tokens? Numbers on burrowers don't match their locations so I'm confused. Also, make +13 attack if the burrower that dissapeared is within the area as it makes no difference if I can see it or not (like if I'm blinded, right?)

Cyr moves just a step closer, his hands still in the air from invoking the leaves.
"Guardian Angels, watchers over mortals, defenders of souls, come to our aid! Protect the champion of faith!"

Bright angel appears over burrower spawn and cuts into it with it's blade. It swoops down toward the great burrower and on hit explodes into hundreds of little blades that continue to whirl around Brenwar and Artemis, parrying physical attacks as they come.


[sblock=Actions]
Minor: Religion (1d20+14=23) appease the crowd, choosing symbology heavy with meaning for Daunton (I personally don't know what would fit best so I choose the oak :) ) - gain +4 to my next d20, why did IC collapse after 1 roll?!

Standard: Blades of Astral Fire vs Burrower (twice?) and Spawn in N23, burst 1 centered in N23, Slide Artemis to L24. Artemis and Brenwar gain +5 power bonus to AC TENT

HIT: Burrower and Spawn, miss the body (if it can be targeted)
DAMAGE: radiant 9
Move: I27

OOC: [MENTION=60965]Iron Sky[/MENTION] Do the spawns also cause 5 damage starting next to them? If yes, then no worries. If no, then Artemis wouldn't have taken the five damage as he only started next to a burrower spawn on his turn. It's only 5 HP, but that is 13.5% of my life :).
