IC Game Thread - The Hunt Starts

[VennDygrem]

"Tsk..." Rezzik shakes his head. "So ready to believe I was questioning your reputation rather than complimenting it. Also so ready to believe that we needed to ask the dwarf what we're up against. I believe we were looking for different answers. Certainly, that is the case for my associate and myself."

"Please, do remember what I said earlier about us all underestimating each other. Assuming you were reading my mind, as it seems you must have done, you completely misunderstood my meaning. I would warn you against jumping to conclusion, but it seems too many of us are already doing that for a warning to be of any use."

[Mixster]

Melkior doesn't take much heed the the offensive comment about his species, he knows their defects.

There is also the option that the corpse does not want to speak with you because Roryn Stoneshield probably was good, and/or probably was lawful, and thus simply resisted your spell with the former will of it's possessing soul. Or whatever item you used was considered contaminated enough by demonic influence. Melkior continues.

Also, I'm curious as to what you want to divine from this dwarf, if not ressurecting him, but perhaps we should start ressurecting him, so you can get on with your questioning? Summoning a Solar perhaps wouldn't be the best cause of action right now though, since it would probably slay the lot of you, so instead we should find another way of ressurecting him?

[Stormcrow]

Raynor walks forward says “fine I will summon An Astral Deva if there is no objections I recommend the demons stand back and don’t attack it as soon as it appears I will have full control of it so before I begin any objections ?”

Disinterested in the living quarters, the figure gives each room a passing glance before moving on.

Take 10 on the searchs for the three rooms (19).

I will go ahead and take 10 on spot/listen/search checks for the rest of the house, save the shrine and laboratory which still seem intereting to me. Feel free to type some generic walking interlude, snagging all the magic of course.

Disinterested in the living quarters, the figure gives each room a passing glance before moving on.

You find a cloak of comfort +3, two fortifying rolls, regular blankets, sheets, and pillows.

The next two doors take you outside (Area 7), and the other door (Room 11) leads to what looks like a ballroom, and in the corner sits a beautifully crafted masterwork harp made of an exotic wood and various gems.

[Stormcrow]

as Raynor walks up to the corpse he casts Detect Magic looking over the room for anything that could create problems casting spells.

 

Cast detect magic

spot to see if there is anything that can interfer with my spells and see and get an idea of what the deamons are equiped with ((IE see what general type of magic item properties ))

"Tsk..." Rezzik shakes his head. "So ready to believe I was questioning your reputation rather than complimenting it. Also so ready to believe that we needed to ask the dwarf what we're up against. I believe we were looking for different answers. Certainly, that is the case for my associate and myself."

"Please, do remember what I said earlier about us all underestimating each other. Assuming you were reading my mind, as it seems you must have done, you completely misunderstood my meaning. I would warn you against jumping to conclusion, but it seems too many of us are already doing that for a warning to be of any use."

Unimpressed with the lot, the death knight merely shakes his head.

"This is why I hate humans. I read nothing of your mind. I merely stated that someone of your caliber, ie you were called upon by the Hunter's Wealth as well, that you would know what spell I cast. Unless I am mistaken, you are a mage of some kind. Therefore, you'd know what I cast, regardless of whether it was me doing it, or my using a vessel to do it through. I remember well what you said about underestimating each other. Hence you're where you are."

Letting go of the dwarf's hands, he turns slightly to stare at Melkior.

"There is that option, yes. However, not all of us detect as evil. There's a spell for that too. Besides, Roryn wouldn't stay dead for an old friend. Not unless he wanted to come out and play because he didn't want to say hi to the man he killed. But, that would be impossible since it'll be a week before I can do that. And again, I reiterate. You missed what I said before."

With a smile, he glances up at Melkior.

"I said, Guess that means you don't get to learn what you're facing off against.'"

Everyone roll initiative. Raynor, as your spell goes off, everyone looks in your direction.

The bar-lgura, who was readied, casts Cloudkill. Karr, who was also readied, teleports himself and Van out of the Cloudkill radius, but you don't see them reappear.

The Cloudkill will get Raynor, Melkior, and Dez. Make Fort saves.

Melkior, you were also readied, so you can take a swing at Van, who have a +2 cover from Karr, who had purposely put arms and hands in a position to do that.

((My Initiative))

These will be in the order that they are on my sheet. Since they all have their own modifiers, I'll be adding them in after.
1d20 -> [3] + 14 = (17)
1d20 -> [18] + 6 = (24)
1d20 -> [11] + 2 = (13)
1d20 -> [20] + 2 = (22)
1d20 -> [1] + 4 = (5)
1d20 -> [5] + 7 = (12)
1d20 -> [6] + 4+4 = (14) used Sign

[VennDygrem]

Rezzik casts Nerveskitter as soon as combat starts:

Dez's initiative: 1d20(15)+15=30
Rezzik's Initiative: 1d20(7)+23=30
So, Rezzik acts before Dez.

And I suppose I may as well roll some spellcraft checks so they know what spells were just cast and to figure out if the reason the demons didn't reappear is because of someone's Anticipate Teleportation or not (I'll guess that's about 3 checks each; cloudkill, teleport, possible spells delaying teleport):
Dez's checks: 40, 44, 46
Rezzik's checks: 54, 42, 49
Whatever order of the spells you want to compare against is fine. Let me know if you need more rolls.

[kevin_video]

Anticipate Teleportation was not cast. If they've reappeared, it's not here.

[archangel.arcanis]

init. (1d20+10=13)

[Mixster]

Note that I have Anticipate Teleportation up, if they attempt to teleport to any location within 100ft of Melkior (which is pretty much anywhere in the mansion), they will be delayed for one full round.

Melkior Immediately Swings at the Death Knight, yelling loudly: You have just made the last mistake of your miserable demonic life.
Attack (power attacks for 8): AC: 1d20+25=30, Damage: 2d6+14+16=36 Ignoring any form of alignment based damage reduction.

Initiative:

Alkazar uses Nerveskitter:
Melkior: 1d20+2=3
Alkazar: 1d20+17=21 (forgot to add his eager warning shuriken)

Fortitude Save: 1d20+17=23 (somehow he forgot to eat a heroes feast this morning, stupid me)

Raynor Smiles at the general and says in Abyssal "Well general it is to bad that we are not doing this out side I could have used some more entertaining pets o well" as he summons Bone Devels in to the room looking at half feind in the room Raynor says in Infernal  send him back to the abyss in Peaces as they swarm it.

[VennDygrem]

Guys, guys, please. We're not waiting for everyone to post their initiative before taking actions? Each of our turns could affect further ones, especially with casters a-plenty. I'm planning on having Rezzik cast Haste, by the way, so any melee combatants in the party in our room will get that cast on them.

By the way, I don't remember seeing any references to any of them being a balor.

On his turn, Rezzik casts Haste, affecting all of his allies in range. He then moves to just north of where Melkior stands.

(If the Bar-lgura acts hostile, ie: performs any attack or anything but move, Rezzik will cast Hesitate on the Bar-lgura. Will DC 25 negates; Caster level check to overcome SR: 1d20(7)+22=29  )

"Cloudkill? I thought we were at an understanding about underestimating each other. Tsk."

Lasts 20 rounds, grants: extra weapon attack, +1 untyped bonus to attack, +1 dodge to AC/Reflex, +30 ft enhancement to all speeds.
will update with Dez's actions

Dez remains collected and silent up to this point, only piping up to call her weapon into existence. Those who can not see invisible creatures suddenly see her appear, jabbing a glowing green lance of energy several times into a space near the wall.
"I hoped things wouldn't devolve to this point. I harbor no ill will toward you, but I must assure you do not disrupt the balance as your allies have."

Dez uses eldritch glaive to attack 'S' on the map. All attacks are touch attacks using Vitriolic Blast (deal acid damage but bypass SR):
Knowledge: The Planes for KD damage: 1d20(5)+23=28 (3 bonus untyped attack/damage)

1d20(18)+31+3=4952
1d20(6)+26+3=3235
1d20(2)+21+3=2326
1d20(8)+16+3=2427
1d20(6)+31+3=3740


Damage (8d6 acid + 3 untyped):
roll 1) 31
roll 2) 32
roll 3) 34
roll 4) 32
roll 5) 39
before taking acid resist into account
Normally target would take acid damage next round, but assuming at least 10 acid resist, none of it will matter.

[archangel.arcanis]

once it gets to my turn I'll unleash hell on an whatever enemy I think is the bigger threat based on what has happened that round.
Hell:

Attack Rolls for full attack. (1d20+39=56, 1d20+39=47, 1d20+34=44, 1d20+29=30, 1d20+24=34) (using improved rapid shot)
Damage for each attack: (1d8+19=22, 1d8+19=23, 1d8+19=25, 1d8+19=22, 1d8+19=23) (all is force damage)
There is also 1 point of Con Damage on each from wounding if applicable to that enemy.

I'll be hovering in order to use my foot bow to full effect as well.

@ Stormcrow and anyone who summons

You have to make a DC 30 caster check. If you fail, you do not get your summons to work. This must be done each time you try to use Summon Monster, Summon Nature's Ally, or Gate over the course of the entire game.

[Stormcrow]

((that info would have been useful before the campain started o well

caster check uses what agen ?  ))

((You didn't know anything about this island. You just found out the hard way like everyone else will.
Caster check is 1d20+ caster level.))
