Entire map is under water except 0 which is sea level beach and 1+ which are raised land. The +3 is a 15' tree which medium-sized and small creatures can climb and provides cover. The tree can only handle about 250 pounds of weight before it collapses. Climb DC15.

09:01, Today: Vry rolled 29 using 1d20+18 with rolls of 11.  Initiative, juggernaut.

I don’t get the tree-part with the map. Is there a tree? I see no 2!

Also, unless anyone rolls higher and objects, I'll take the bottom right corner.

In reply to Vry (msg # 3):

I was wondering about the tree to. Let's just roll with it. I'll take A1.

15:30, Today: Maelstrom rolled 16 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 11.  Mighty Maelstrom's Initiative roll.

Lyn will start in A20


16:47, Today: Lyn rolled 18 using 1d20+14 with rolls of 4.  Init jug 14.

I suppose I'll start in T1 then.

Initiative is 10

Sorry I don’t have my spell list at the ready, I will post it momentarily.

Vry enters the arena, stepping out behind her familiar - who this fight comes running onto the island in the shape of a reptile somewhat larger than it's master. Riddiz the goblin steps onto the little island in their corner, drawing his bow, snickering as he watches the enemies enter the arena. "Eh eh, them weaklings, we'll kill 'em!"
"Do not be so sure of yourself. They are much stronger than you are."
Riddiz clinches his teeth, letting an arrow rest on the string, steeling himself for battle.
"I will take them down... But I expect they will dismember you first."
"Rraah!" The goblin growls, as Vry begins casting her spells. As the first one makes her pet swell up at an uncontrollable rate, she casts another spell, strengthening her companions aswell as herself. Taff then begins floating out into the arena, moving up onto the middle island.

I rolled spellcraft checks to identify the spells cast, but with a -9 for distance, I don’t suppose I identify anything do I?

 Ankou rolled 26,25 using D20+16,d20+16 with rolls of 10,9.  Spellcraft: identify std spell & quick spell

Don't worry Ankou, I got your back :O

What a waste of 20s though :P

I already took the -9 due to distance, so assuming the spells are level 15 or lower, please let us know what the spells are?

16:06, Today: Lyn rolled 30,30 using 1d20+10,1d20+10 with rolls of 20,20.  Spellcraft checks std, quick.

Lyn stepped through the doors into the around, and growled when she saw the water filling up the space around her. She stepped back into the corner quickly, and turned her attention towards the Gnome standing on the other side of the arena.

She focused her attention first to her sword, causing a multitude of lights to dance along the blade, and then to herself, before taking a step forward and looking towards the animal in the middle of the Arena.

OOC: Question. According to Swim, you can use a check to move half your speed as a full round action.  I'm assuming that Taff has a natural swim speed since there was no check?  What type of animal is Taff, or what type of knowledge do I need to roll to id him?

Spells: Ooze Form III, quickened Haste! :) And the first spell should answer the swim question. I think knowledge nature is still what you need to know more about Taff, should there be anything more you want to know...

Dungeoneering would probably be required to identify the form Taff has been polymorphed into, I guess!

23 to identify!
09:46, Today: Vry rolled 23 using 1d20+10 with rolls of 13.  Spellcraft identify Lyn, -9 range .

Huge Ooze gets Swim speed 30, so that does answer that.

Spellcraft DC is 17, so.
Lyn cast Intensified Shocking Grasp onto her armor.

On the Ooze knowledge front... Familiar's don't have a CR, so the DC to knowledge would be 5+CR, total 5?  As DC is <10, I can make the check untrained.

20:44, Today: Lyn rolled 8 using 1d20+4 with rolls of 4.  Know(Dung) vs Taff to ID, DC5?

Result is 8, so please provide 1 piece of information regarding the type of ooze Taff is, in line with Monster Lore usage of Knowledge. Ideally, I'd like to know 1 type of immunity or weakness.

Oops, my bad. Common monsters is 5+, I misread the skill.  As such, I failed the check and know nothing.

In reply to Grunyar Fangblood (msg # 22):

I'll have my post up soon. Just a quick question for Grunyar:

In reply to Maelstrom (msg # 23):

Maelstrom tumbled into the arena and sprang to his feet. Immediately after entering he gave each Ankou and Lyn a thumbs up but they didn’t notice. They were both studying Vry and whatever she was doing. He briefly looked at his opponent, but he couldn't read magic like the others.

He did not know Vry. Passed her in the hallway once or twice. She seemed like a good character though she did join the guild of scum and villainy. I suppose you shouldn’t judge someone for their friends.

Maelstrom began his stretches but froze. Pure terror entered his eyes as he saw something move across the arena. It looked like a floating fortress but it had eyes. Maelstrom silently mouthed “We are going to need a bigger gun…” He quickly pulled something out of his pouch, dowsed himself with it and winked out of existence.

   GEAR:   Stone, dust, potion, headband, necklace, cloak, shirt, belt, ring, potion, potion, backpack, belt pouch, dagger

   USES: 2/? Ki points, 0/? Class ability, 1/? item


DICE ROLLS: 17:01, Today: Maelstrom rolled 44 using 1d20+40 with rolls of 4.  Stealth, juggernaut. Not sure if I get +20 for invisibility. If not, my stealth is 20 lower.


   SUMMARY: Maelstrom pulls out an item! He uses the item! He disappears! Also, is Taff a valid target for Ooze form? The spell says the target has to be you. Not sure if Taff being your animal companion changes that or not.

Taff is no longer a reptile, but a horribly alien, formless being. About the size of half a house, the black mass that was once Taff floats - or perhaps slithers - towards the central island. Making it's way forward, it almost melds into the water, the black surface curving into a huge wave - if one did not know that the shadowy wave was in fact the monster, the thought of what horrors moved underneath that surface to cause such a wave would be sufficient to drive any man or woman insane. As it ascends on the island, it again forms into that large mass, the ever-changing shape of which is too weird to comprehend. For a moment, a belt can be seen inside the being, floating within what appears to be a bubble made out of something yellow. Then the string to something that could be an amulet floats to the surface within the being, only to quickly be swallowed back within the mass. The enemies of the monster spring to action, preparing for the fight that is ahead of them. One casts her spells, another throws dust in the air and vanishes. The monster, ever moving, does not seem to react to the preparations. Then, leathery skin grows into field large as a warrior's shield on the side of that monstrosity. The skin moves, pulled upward, revealing under it a huge yellow eye - the pupil not round but in a vertical line like that of a reptil's eye. As the eyelid melds back into the body, disappearing in that black mass, the eye stares straight at the monk who just a second ago thought he had vanished.

Yes, Taff is a valid target even though range is Personal :)
Also, he has blindsight 60ft - which by my calculations extend all the way up to A2/B1! So if you left A1, I'll want to know what happened, and if you didn't, I'll want to know that Taff can't see you :P

Question for ref:

In reply to Vry (msg # 27):

Grunyar can correct me on this, but I do not think Taff can see me (I am in range). I suppose the cat's out of the bag for what I'm using. I'll just post it. I bolded the relevant parts. Dust of disappearance is different from standard invisibility. It does not allow detection by magical means. Taff gained blindsight 60ft from the Ooze Form III spell, ergo a magical means.

Dust of Disappearance:

This dust looks like dust of appearance and is typically stored in the same manner. a creature or object touched by it becomes invisible (as greater invisibility). Normal vision can’t see dusted creatures or objects, nor can they be detected by magical means, including see invisibility or invisibility purge. Dust of appearance, however, does reveal people and objects made invisible by dust of disappearance. Other factors, such as sound and smell, also allow possible detection. The greater invisibility bestowed by the dust lasts for 2d6 rounds. The invisible creature doesn’t know when the duration will end.

Ooze Form III spell

This spell functions as ooze form II except you can also assume the form of a Huge ooze. You gain blindsight 60 feet

Because Taff's blindsight came from a spell and dust of disappearance prevents me from being detected by magical means, I should be undetectable.

In reply to Maelstrom (msg # 29):

I like the logic however it is flawed, the magic is not being used to find you it is scent/vibration/noise to find you magic just gave it better ears/touch/nose

In reply to Grunyar Fangblood (msg # 28):

I suppose the ref has spoken :P

Maelstrom is in S20

Purely a question - That said, couldn't the same argument be use for See Invisibility? It just makes your eyes better?
This message was last edited by the player at 13:04, Sat 30 Dec 2017.

Well, see invisibility is specifically mentioned in the item, and that spell does not give any senses - which ooze form does.
I suppose Taff would also know whether Maelstrom ran, flew, swam or teleported there!

In reply to Vry (msg # 33):

As Taff does not have the intelligence to know such a thing no he does not.

Really wondering how Maelstrom gets over the whole map though! Without using a hero point, only with a swift action, spending two ki points and moving over the whole map. And a quick runner's shirt can't be used to activate supernatural abilities, can it?

In reply to Vry (msg # 35):

His actions are legal

The Ankou was quite different from last time he had entered the arena. Still cloaked in large black shrouds, but this time he was carrying a pole arm and wearing wooden armour. For buoyancy, one could guess.

He quickly doubled in size, along with his gear, and his skin takes a metallic hue.
His arms are now longer and reach the ground almost, but more noticeable is the fact he has two heads !

In reply to Grunyar Fangblood (msg # 36):

I'll have to dispute that though, as I cannot believe that one can move over the whole map and use 2 ki points in one swift action. 'Uses' do not list any hero points but do say "1/? item" which also must have happened in that same swift action, since dust of disappearance does not have several uses. I'm thinking that means a quick runner's shirt has been activated (swift action), giving another move action that has to be used to move, and that that action was used to activate a supernatural ability which was used to move on the map.

And, I mean, if when Flying is not allowed that means that fly speeds and fly spells are not allowed but levitate is allowed - then flying refers to those speeds and spells (which is flying, literally) and not to the general act of moving through the air without touching the ground or jumping (which is flying, but loosely); and that in turn should mean that using a move action to move refers to actually moving by using a move speed (which is moving, literally - also see the move action description which has a subheading called 'Move') and not to doing anything that will also change one's position on the map (which is moving, but loosely).

Either things happened in a completely different way, or I'll want Arkrim's confirmation that the shirt actually works this way.

A supernatural ability, such as Abundant Step, or something else.

In reply to Vry (msg # 39):

He used his action to move the movement may not be a conventional type of movement but is still a movement from point "A" to point "B"

In reply to Grunyar Fangblood (msg # 40):

Right, I see! There are many conditions that impede moving in different ways though, that would interact strangely with such an effect: unable to move, move at half speed, etc. Teleporting while blind would come with a risk of falling only if teleporting certain distances. Sinking ships could not be teleported to different locations even by level 20 wizards, etc. What I mean is, I think the wording for the shirt specifies using a move action to move up to one's move speed, swimming or climbing, as per the action description:
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/combat/#TOC-Move

In reply to Vry (msg # 41):



If the RAI was to restrict the type of movement it would be written as such (as the current wording was errata'd a while back) RAW just says to move and what he did was such a move from one location to another.  He asked me before doing it I give him my ruling and I stand behind it. As it as written you are even unable to draw a weapon during the movement and if the form of movement he used was worded any differently I would agree but it makes no mention of casting or activating just states the restrictions using a spell as reference.

The lumbering monstrosity turns right where it stands, chasing after the threat to it's master that just now appeared right next to her. It does not even make it half way through the water before, from that dark shadow on the water, a thick strand extends all the way over the the island where the monster once came from. What is supposedly some sort of arm to that alien being slams into something not visible to the eyes of most other creatures, and there is a fizzling sound as part of the semi-liquid being sticks to the invisible monk, burning him. The gnome takes care, as she begins weaving a spell - a sparkle in her eye hinting about some twisted plan beginning to take shape. As she finishes, she twists and turns towards the Ankou, quickly casting another spell at the druid, a spell which is followed by a barrage of arrows launched from the goblin's bow.

Question

In reply to Lyn (msg # 44):

Lyn laughed as the creature turned it's attention towards the monk.  He wasn't the only one who could move across the arena at the bink of an eye.  Pausing for a moment to gather herself, Lyn started moving faster and faster.  Her rapier tip reached forward, and opened a door in the arena.  She stepped through and without missing a beat caught Vry 3 times, her rapier glowing brightly with each hit, and the dancing colours moving to dance across Vry instead.

OOC: Sorry, forgot to include the +9 to damage from my weapon mod in dice roller.  Also forgot to include the -2 Spellcombat mod, so rerolled all 3 attack rolls.

Before we get onto the another argument about movement.  I have the Dimensional Agility feat, so I can Door and then continue my full attack afterwards.

Can we please get ref to validate that Taff has 30' reach as well?

If it helps with me saying it, Taff gets the reach from the being he is polymorphed into.
Also, Lyn make a Will save DC26. There will likely be no observable effect at once.

09:54, Today: Lyn rolled 21 using 1d20+9 ((12))

No observable effect.

After Maelstrom zipped from his island to Vry’s, he slowly turned to look at Taff. When Taff slowly turned to look at Maelstrom, Maelstrom eyes went wide with terror “NOOOO! How do you see me!?” The shopkeeper said the dust would turn him invisible. In the midst of his rant, something lashed out and smacked him for a good bit of damage.

While still trying to figure out how the gelatinous blob was able to see him, Lyn appeared next to him. Maelstrom rolled his eyes at Lyn’s appearance. Apparently his super cool technique, stepping through the fabric of reality – anybody could do. Shaking his head he focused on Vry.

He was going to punch the sorcerer, but he didn’t quite trust that smile. Riddiz wasn’t smiling. And he looked very punchable. Maelstrom stepped left and laid into the goblin with a flurry of blows. He tried to trip the goblin, but eh, no one’s perfect.

Awww man! I missed that.

What should I do? I still make the save without the +8. Should I reroll anyways?

Gonna have to reroll that ;) Although, isn’t +8 what they mean by “Bonus”? In that case it would be legal?

my bad ankou you are good on phone and did not see the comma read it as bonus extra action, the text saying that you receive the +8 and +4 was replaced with that it confused me

Well spotted Vry, thanks!
Will post shortly.

The Ankou first extends a hand to point at the oozing monster, imposing his will and freezing him in place.

He then flexes his muscles, both heads roar as the gladiator enters a battle frenzy of a magnitude rarely seen in the arena.

Polearm in his massive hands, the troll casually strides across the water, to the second island, and hits Vry’s companion with all the strength he can summon.

DICE ROLLS:
22:48, Today: Ankou rolled 38 using 2d8+25 with rolls of 7,6.  Damage (if 21 does hit).
22:36, Today: Ankou rolled 21 using 1d20+19 with rolls of 2.  Attack Taff Fauchard (power attack, rage).

  SUMMARY: Ankou tries to paralyse Taff (will DC15) , then walks across the waters, and hits the Ooze.
38 damage if the attack somehow hits. 

Forgot to update hit points: 209/247
Also Ankou used a hero point.

Ankou makes magical contact with Taff, and sees the strange body before him swell. A large bubble of black mass pops, and where it was, a semi-spherical hollow contains three fist-sized yellow eyes - each of them staring at the druid. As the spell pierces into the mind of Taff, all Ankou can see is a darkness, a looming shadow from aeons past. Then the being stretches out toward his isle, and slams through the air - but the troll easily guards against the attack. Vry freezes in place, not moving an inch - doubtlessly as some sort of defensive spell takes effect. There is a faint humming in the air, then that horrible being on the water attacks again, stretching out towards each of the enemies within only a few seconds. The elf is, however, the only one taking a hit.
"BLAST AND DAMN YOU ALL! YOU WILL NOT GET ME!"
The goblin's scream, gibberish to most as the words he use are those of his native tongue, is a sharp contrast to the focus of the combatants; as the goblin jumps into the water in an attempt to escape the monk.

OOC: Did not expect 4/5 attacks to miss, but oh well! Also, I had forgotten to apply the AC reduction from charging to Taff, so that's

PM

As Taff's ooze connects with the Elf, her armor lit up with a bright shock, shocking the creature even as the acid burned into her skin.

16:20, Today: Lyn rolled 36 using 10d6 with rolls of 3,4,5,1,3,1,6,6,6,1.  Stored Intensified Shocking Grasp.

OOC: I'll have a post up as soon as I'm done with my championship post for Brakt

Lyn growled as the acid bit through her skin, and glared at the Ooze.  She didn't want to take another hit from him, so taking a breath, she looked at the ground below her, and started to sink into the ground.  Once safe from the Ooze's gaze, she murmered a few words, and her rapier pierced forth from the earth into the Gnome's body 4 times, a rainbow of colours following the initial shock.

OOC: I noticed that you took no damage from my last attack, is that as a result of the spell you cast last turn?

Yes, it is. Need another DC26 Will save from Lyn.

PM

Grumble Grumble Jackpot!

20:04, Today: Lyn rolled 29 using 1d20+9 with rolls of 20.  Will DC26.

Awaiting ref's response for if I really should have asked for that save, not certain if the spell works like that!

Did you cast a freakishly heightened sanctuary?? Bold move if that’s the case. So simple yet so effective.
However if that’s the case I think you should let Lyn know that she was unable to attack, not just that you evaded damage.
Also her shocking grasp would not have discharged in that case.
And the spell affords only one save, not one every time one attacks (if that’s your question).

In reply to Maelstrom (msg # 62):



In reply to Lyn (msg # 67):
As Lyn strikes the Illusion it does not react to her strike as one should and disappears.

In this setting asking for the save when interacting is about the best way asking for much else would give it away.  As no stealth roll was rolled the DC to find Vry is - so as long as a perception roll is made you get her location.

So, let me get this straight

After I attacked last turn, I realised it was an illusion and as such Vry wasn't there for me to attack this turn?

Or was it only after 4+ attacks/passed will save that the illusion was dispelled?

In reply to Lyn (msg # 71):

after first attack this turn we will say for uses/charges used, last turn you still believed the Illusion (will save).

To ref

Vry, Ankou only hit AC21 against Taff, did that actually hit?
Otherwise the Oozing T-Rex should take no damage.

In reply to Vry (msg # 73):


Ankou; forgot to write that out. He had charged but I had failed to apply a negative modifier to his ac!

In reply to Ankou (msg # 74):

yes ankou your attack would hit.

Okay, in that case, I'll roll perception vs Vry and let everyone else know where the gnome is hiding, and assuming he's still in range, use my other 3 attacks?

14:07, Today: Lyn rolled 13 using 1d20+2 with rolls of 11.  Perception vs Vry

In reply to Lyn (msg # 77):

You used spell combat which is a full round action and perception check is a move action

quote:

Perception Checks and Stealth: You get a free Perception check every round at the start of your turn. Additional checks require move actions. If ANY succeed, you pinpoint the hidden creature until they hide again.

Only at the start, well. I guess I'm done then, nothing I can do but wait.

Mael is up

In reply to Lyn (msg # 79):

To start my turn:

Actions: Perception

23:12, Today: Maelstrom rolled 28 using 1d20+22 with rolls of 6.  Perception v. Vry .

I'll take the rest of my actions once I know where Vry is or not.
