8:34am  2015-5-02 Smon Has entered the room
chris107: Morning Simon
Smon: Hi C
Smon: My Internet is a bit grotty this morning.
chris107: Ready to carve up some Zombies!
Smon: Hopefully wil be ok.
chris107:
chris107: Noticed only 1,900 or so off 6th. Rage 4/day!
Smon: Supposed to be 30 MBPS and it takes ages to load a page... I don't think it has dropped totally though.
Smon: Yup, the Sarene fight got you close. She's a Big XP girl.
chris107: You want to log out and try again?
chris107: Looking back through the log it was too blinking close!
Smon: No, I think if I stay on is best.
chris107: If she hadn't pulled out?...
Smon: Playing Sarene I couldn't be sure if she'd back out or try to finish you, knowing that she didn't know your exact hp total, so Morale Check at ML 7 seemed right & I got an 8.
chris107: She only had to do 20HP and had the initiative.
chris107: It would have made for a tense fight
Smon: It was quite tense.
chris107: Still no PHB. Hoping it will arrive in the post today.
Smon: Going in I thought she'd beat you & then the others would be negotiating to stop her killing you.
chris107: Looking forward to seeing what other joys Hakeem has to look forward to.
chris107: That 1/2 damage on the Rage is amazing. And three big attacks/round.
Smon: You played it well though, recognising she was a fellow Altanian.
chris107: Just couldn't let her take Jana Vex. All our cred would have been lost.
Smon: Her axemen are pretty tough, if your group had attacked them I think it'd have been a pretty definite TPK.
chris107: Phew. Good job all round then
chris107: You just missed Graham last night.
chris107: He arrived a few minutes after you had gone.
Smon: Yeah, I saw when I checked the log before exiting.
chris107: Ah.
Smon: He has the opposite situation from me re Bank Holiday weekend.
chris107: A shame. Rey is such a useful chap to have around.
chris107: Massive damage + all the thiefy skills we otherwise lack.
Smon: Yes - it did let Bjornalf shine a bit more though, and more time for roleplay with Hakeem & B; as a Face guy Rey tends to quite dominate with his antics.
chris107: Hehe yes. But Kjato is a smart guy. He has plans
chris107: I liked plans with Caspian but it's nice not to have to think with Hakeem
Smon: (Yes, his plans are so subtle I often only notice them when I read over the log!) Did you see my post re group init system?
Smon: (I like playing the no-thinky-stuff warriors too)
chris107: I did yes. No problem. I've done something similar in my online game. As combats become more complex, something needs to be done to keep it slick.
Smon: GM: ok, roll your group init
chris107 rolls 1d20 and gets: 1616,
Smon: /roll d20-2
Smon rolls 1d20-2 and gets: 1313, (-2) = 11
chris107: Rage!
Smon: Even Jana Vex wins
chris107: Oh and also could you clarify something please?
Smon: The shufflers are about 30' away in a tight-packed mob, coming towards you.
chris107: I can't remember the name but 'rash attacks' is as close as I can manage. How does that work again?
8:49am  2015-5-02 atherton Has entered the room
atherton: Hi Chris, Simon
chris107: Athers!
Smon: You get advantage on your attacks but also grant advantage until next turn. Everyone rolls 2 d20.
chris107: Just in time
Smon: Hi ath!
Smon: You're 50 xp off levelling.
atherton: so whats happening?
chris107: Ah yes. Thanks so with initiative it's a good thing (providing you can finish your foe off)
Smon: The group have been with Jana Vex reconsecrating the crypts of Ulther 8 miles from Selatinr
chris107: We are just about to slay some Zombies and get you a level
chris107: Os' plate mail is been fixed up as we speak.
Smon: After several hours of this a bunch of zombies have appeared approaching down a tunnel towards the T junction where Hakeem and Malenn guard the priests' (Jana + Polyachus) rear
Smon: An armourer in Selatine is refitting a dead orc leader's plate armour for Os.
atherton: so we're still in the same cave system?
Smon: We can say Os arrives in the lower catacombs looking for his friends just as the zombies attack.
chris107: Been in and out a few times Dave.
atherton: ok, sounds fine to me
Smon: You're in level 3 of Ulther's Crypt.
atherton: I'll back Hakeem up
atherton: bow if the zombies are at range, falchion otherwise
Smon: Malenn and Hakeem ready themselves at the mouth of the tunnel as Os comes hurrying up with bow ready. He sees the mass of zombies 30' away, can shoot at them between his friends.
chris107: Hakeem begins his rage.
Smon: Bjornalf is here but looking a bit unsteady after taking a poison dart trap to the chest.
chris107: He will chop furiously when the shufflers arrive.
atherton: I'll push forward to avoid shooting any of my friends and release a shaft
atherton rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 1616, (+7) = 23
Smon: ok, you hit
chris107: Great start
atherton rolls 1d8+3 and gets: 55, (+3) = 8
atherton: I either cast aside my bow, or try for another arrow, depending on the speed of the "shufflers"
Smon: An arrow sticks out of a shuffling corpse.
Smon: You'll have time for another shot as they close to 10' this round.
Smon: Pollyachus hears the commotion and comes running back towards you.
Smon: r2
atherton Rolls 1d1+20x7 and gets:

atherton: or begin to
Smon: Still coming. I'll say you have torch in bracket nearby, you can see clearly now as the zombies shuffle in; Hakeem and Malenn block the tunnel and hack at the mass of corpses (4 in 10' tunnel, another 4 behind)
Smon: Is H hitting the wounded one or a fresh one?
chris107: Fresh one
Smon: ok, you take it from 22 to 0 hp, it has to make a dc 18 con save...

Smon: You win.
chris107: He shudders. His anger spent. For now.
chris107: "Sorry Pollyachus. You said something?"
Smon: You look down at the corpses. They seem quite fresh, not century old bones. Altanian by the look of them.
Smon: Polyachus puts his holy symbol away. "No worries." he grins.
atherton: I'll have a look at them
chris107: "Best bless this lot too."
Smon: They are all adult, mix of male and female tribesfolk by the look of them.
atherton: who were they?
Smon: Poly: "Better get back to Jana, don't want to interrupt the Ritual..."
Smon: 5 mins, tea break
chris107: Hak chat's easily with Os. Telling him of the adventures of the previous few days.
chris107: "Best keep an eye out down this passage too."

Smon: They return to you at the T-junction.
chris107: Fetch the casket too.
Smon: Jana: "We are nearly out of incense. I think we should return and continue tomorrow?"
Smon: It's mid-afternoon now.
chris107: Okay, if you think that best. Between us we can carry the stone chest?
Smon: Hakeem goes and picks up the casket Bjornalf dropped; its trap spent now it seems.
Smon: Hakeem w STR 17 can carry it under one arm.
atherton: I help Hakeem
chris107:
chris107: "Thanks Os."
Smon: It's only 2' long, but you can carry it between you if you like.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 33,
chris107: Makes sense to share the burden.
Smon: You head back upstairs, eventually exiting the catacombs by the south caves...
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 66,
atherton: well I can carry my sword drawn I guess
Smon: Unfortunately...
chris107:
atherton: ok guess not
Smon: There seem to be an awful lot of Orcs in the south cave...
atherton: anyway I help Hakeem carry it out
chris107: Maybe it's only another Honey Badger?
atherton: are they looking in our direction?
Smon: Map - https://rpgcharacters.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/level1.jpg?w=529
Smon: You have just come down the narrow twin tunnels from the north and turned right when you see ahead numerous orcs in the large cave scattered w bones.
chris107: So we are in the very narrow passagways?
Smon: Orc perception check:
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 33,
chris107: Do they look 'dead'
Smon: They've not seen you yet.
chris107: the ones we killed before in Zombie style or new ones to kill?
atherton: "hide?"
Smon: No, they are making a lot of noise as they massacre some giant rats.
Smon: They look fresh.
chris107: Maybe lay here in ambush?
Smon: Also one is holding a torch, Hakeem & Os on point can see a young mage in the centre of the squad - Joseph the apprentice.
chris107: If they don't come looking that's fine. If they do we get the jump and they can't bring their greater numbers to bear.
chris107: 2The wizardling could prove problematic."
Smon: He turns to a plate-armoured Orog. "She didn't kill them alone, Commander. Search the Caves, she and her allies could still be hiding here."
Smon: OOC with your torch they'll spot you any moment
chris107: "Jana, Polly. It's best you are not seen. They can't tie this back to Selatine."
atherton: can I hide the torch?
Smon: How?
chris107:
atherton: umm stand in front of it
Smon: LOL
atherton: does anyone have a cloak?
chris107: If Rey was here we could fit it in his mouth
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 1414,
atherton: step around a corner?
Smon: An orc looks in your direction, spots the light and yells a warning.
Smon: The orcs turn...
chris107: Looks like it's rage and berserk time again
atherton: "oh well"
atherton: "what do we do Hakeem?"
chris107: Kill the bugers
chris107: But lets get them to chase us to a choke point
chris107: "Quickly back to where the twin passages meet to the NE
Smon: On the map Os & H are at the Y-shaped junction. To the SE is a stairway you have never been down. To the NE the rest of your group are further up the narrow tunnels that lead to (a) the stairs up to the clifftop shrine and (b) the deep delves you just came out of.
Smon: You can fall back NE round the corner to where the twin passages meet, I'm giving you an action before init so that's ok
chris107: If need be Lady Vex, Polly and Malenn can flee up the staircase.
chris107: That's what my vote would be for.
atherton: I think so
Smon: OK you hurry back, pushing the others before you, and turn to face the oncoming orcs as they come round the corner...
Smon: group init, Chris roll

Smon: Os has no one behind him in the east narrow tunnel (they are VERY narrow, you'd be Squeezing in them - disad in combat)

chris107: Fall back to the tunnel entrance.
Smon: You fall back north up the twin passages?
chris107: Where we can hold them in the 10' entry

Smon: You get +3 Prof, still fail looks like.
chris107: Gloom
chris107: But Hakeem does not want his life spareing
Smon: I'm checking - the spell seems fully effective in combat if reasonable suggestion.
chris107: But to him it's not a reasonable suggestion
chris107: he's berserk
chris107: To Hakeem it's the most unreasonable of suggestions

chris107: "I surrender then."
Smon: Tragically, Hakeem allows himself to be captured alive while his friends flee.
chris107: "But lay not a hand on me or you will suffer."
Smon: The orc chief grins and takes the greatsword.
chris107: (He has stopped fighting as requested by the word of the suggestion.)
chris107: Hakeem doesn't let the sword go.
chris107: The suggestion said nothing about giving up his weapon.
Smon: So you're 'surrendered' but refusing to let them take your sword or bind you?
chris107: Yes. He's stopped fighting and will kill no more of them.
Smon: The orcs surround you at a stand-off while Joseph contemplates this conundrum.
chris107: "Now move aside and I will leave you in peace."
Smon: After a couple minutes an orc returns from the east narrow tunnel and speaks to Joseph. "They have fled north into the hills. The others are pursuing." Joseph nods.
Smon: Joseph looks at Hakeem. "Unfortunately I can only maintain one Suggestion at a time..."
chris107: "Then you get to live and so do I."
Smon: Joseph: "Orcs, move away from the prisoner..." he grins evilly.
Smon: "Chtili fgtag Abadar thyaungh!"
chris107: (This is going to hurt isn't it?  )

Smon: I can check the log.
chris107: Okay
atherton: so operation, rescue Hakeem
Smon: I'll post log. Rem, Conan got captured all the time, it's not over yet.
chris107: I assumed with a new day (an overnight rest) that they came back.
Smon: (although you may well die horribly, too)
Smon: No, only half of them, per RAW
chris107: Thanks for the game Simon, fun a salways
Smon: LOL
atherton: a noble gesture by Hakeem Chris!
Smon: I think we should maybe wait until Kjato (& Graham?) are available.
chris107: He couldn't see his friends die.
chris107: That's just the way he was
Smon: You can make a back-up 3rd level PC in the meantime.
chris107: I thought it was 5th now?
Smon: ath, Os gets to 4th level. You get 2 points to raise stats.
Smon: (no)
atherton: yay!
Smon: Do you just want to raise STR? Or I said I'd allow the Heavy Armour Master feat, -3 to wpn dmg & +1 STR
chris107: Oh when I was reading the blog I though it said start at the lowest of the current level ie: 5-10th level starts at 5th again?
atherton: what shall I rise Chris?
Smon: Start level is listed at the top of the campaign page, it's 3rd.
atherton: I think strength Simon
Smon: If some PCs get to 7 I'll raise it to 5.
Smon: ok, STR 18 then, +1 att & dmg
