R1T22: "Row faster!" shouts Lilim to The Scribe. Otherwise, she delays ...

Spoiler: Speech Color

Show

Lilim's speech is purple, Sinxia's is blue.

R1T17: Fallon strips naked in the water, shucking her faerie backpack and belt pouch

R1T16: Teofilo flies into the water, grabbing Fallon's things so they don't sink and they can be found later.

R1T15: The Scribe begins a full row. "Teofilo, stay with Fallon and that boat until they can get things righted. I'm moving the rest out of this area."

R1T14-4: Erima and Rezah are on round 2 of removing their armor.

End Round One, Begin Round 2 ...

R2T33: Sinxia stands and tries to get Rezah to move up in the boat, not wasting her time trying to stop him from removing the armor.

R2T25: "Oooh, a pretty snake!" calls Fallon rather vacuously as she treads water, looking at something below the surface. "Hey! Bad snake, bad snake!" she then shouts.

R2T22: Lilim, what do you do?

R2T22: Lilim uses the Shard of Greed to put haste on the party (including the compelled).

R2T17: Fallon, treading water, removes her clothes ... which includes loosening the baldric for her sword, thieves' tools, and healing wand.

R2T16: Teofilo doesn't even try. He just drops Fallon's things in the water. He casts shield of faith on himself, then goes into the water.

R2T15: The Scribe, "powered" by the haste, rows at incredible speed towards where the lake goes to the east and south again.

R2T14: Now hasted, Erima is twice as fast at the work of armor removal, as is Rezah (though with his armor he has much longer to go).

End Round 2, Begin Round 3 ...

R3T33: Sinxia, what do you do? Whatever is just under the water attacking Fallon is hard to see (dim light + cover). You are hasted. Do not add the bonuses in (leave that to me), but understand what that does for you.

R3T33: After some degree of thought, Sinxia finally takes action. Pulling out a small chant she holds her hand aloft, drawing upon her magic to improve her luck in combat. After the magic washes over her, she dives into the water after Fallon, choosing to work her way into hand to hand combat. Unfortunately, as calm as the lake is in general, Sinxia was never trained how to swim (Teofilo always making it look so easy, despite being an aquatic race) and she instantly begins to sink. That's when she notices that what is underwater is a sixteen-foot-long snake-like thing, a lot larger than she at first anticipated!

You are now taking up the 5-foot-cube just under the surface, and I am beginning to count down your breath. You have 20 rounds of air remaining, though each round you take an SA, FRA, or FAA, you spend an extra round's worth of breath.

Also, and this has been addressed in formal channels elsewhere concerning the gauntlet. "This metal glove lets you deal lethal damage rather than nonlethal damage with unarmed strikes. A strike with a gauntlet is otherwise considered an unarmed attack." It allows you to deal lethal, but is still treated as an unarmed attack. If you do not have Improved Unarmed Strike, you still provoke AOOs with a gauntlet, and you do not threaten. I recently had a player in a meatspace game point this out to me when I wanted my scale mail-clad samsaran (hey!) reincarnated oracle to pummel a goblin (yup, you guessed it, RotRL). I was shown the official "word from on high" and it does make sense, "cheapie nerf" though it might seem. The wording was specifically made that way for that reason.

R3T25-22: The monster attacks Fallon but she is too nimble, even in the water. Elsewhere, Lilim delays.

R3T17: Fallon continues to tread water, and this time takes off her cloak, dropping into the lake.

R3T16: Teofilo casts mirror image on himself, and effortlessly treads water.

R3T15: The Scribe continues rowing out of sight of the lag boat, he zooms right up to a beach. Large amounts of lichen on this cave's walls glow with intense vibrancy, providing brilliant illumination to the cave and making the sandy beach along the lakeshore glitter. Two rowboats are beached on this sandy shore. Two dry tunnels head off to the east, while to the west the waters of the lake widen into the much larger cavern from whence you came.

"Lilim, roll her out of the boat and get back in!" yells The Scribe to Lilim.

Lilim, you are delaying. Do you do that?

R3T15.5-14: Lilim gets out of the boat (starboard side), and she easily lifts Erima out onto the beach. Erima is too focused on taking off her armor to care, so she continues with that task.

R3T7: Sinxia quickly finds she is no longer alone, as another one of these massive, water-snake things charges in at her and bites her in the left knee for 15.

R3T4: Rezah continues trying to take off his armor.

End Round 3, Begin Round 4 ...

R4T33: Sinxia, you are at the surface, but you are holding your breath just under that surface. What does she do?

Spoiler: What She Sees

Show

This is a giant moray eel, a Large animal with the aquatic subtype. The moray eel is a ferocious predator, capable of holding prey in its primary jaws while a smaller set of jaws inside its throat chews away bite-sized portions. Luckily, it failed to grab Sinxia.

R4T33: Sinxia struggles to regain her control over her aquatic movement and attempts to focus enough to get a good attack in on the monster, hoping to disable it quickly. She manages to breach the surface and is now treading. She has a look of the briefest focus on her as her gauntlet gives a silvery radiance, putting her fist underwater, and then thrusting forth with that. Despite all of the watery resistance, she still strikes the eel for 15 and Sinxia herself is healed of 9.

Spoiler

Yes, if the damage you do is halved, the healing you get is halved.

R4T25: GM1 attacks the glowing target, but that glow is actually what repels its bite.

R4T17: Fallon easily treads water while taking off her bracers and lets them drop into the lake.

R4T16: Teofilo (a native swimmer) slips just underneath the water and back a few feet. A jolt of electricity - enough to arc to the eel, but not enough to shock an area of the water or hurt Fallon - hits the eel for 10 electricity.

R4T15: The Scribe, while waiting for Lilim, takes out a wand and fails to use it on himself properly. It seems his bad luck with wands continues.

R4T14.5: Lilim, you are standing on the beach next to the boat while Erima furiously acts to take off her armor and you hear the sounds of battle echoing off the former stillness of the lake behind you. What do you do?

R5T33: Sinxia focuses on her foe, looking for weaknesses in order to slay it faster, and then proceeds to attempt to dismember it with her fist. Before she does so, she is an easy mark for the eel without her armor (which has been on loan to Erima), and it bites her left elbow from underwater for 17. Its jaws catch her fast, and with it underwater (cover) and she is now grappled, her fist bounces off of its slick hide.

Spoiler: Swim Checks

Yes, a Swim check is definitely required since you have no skill at Swimming. It's one of those odd skills where you can attempt it untrained, but life is harder when you don't have at least 1 rank in it (trained).

R5T25: GME1 attacks Fallon, who is thrashing about to get stuff down with little mind for herself. Amazingly, the eel wildly attacks and misses.

R5T17: Fallon treads water, takes off her ring, and lets it sink into the deep. She is now completely naked.

R5T16: Teofilo casts a spell underwater, and turns Fallon invisible. While it's true that there is a Fallon-sized hole in the water, she still might be difficult to hit.

R5T15: The Scribe forces off the beach and makes an impressive move to the north and skulling around (with Lilim in the boat).

R6T33: Sinxia struggles to escape the creature's grip and pull away from it with all of her strength. It is so easy to overlook the samsaran's terrifically gaunt frame, and forget that her nearly seven-foot-frame comes with an incredible muscle-to-weight ratio, and she easily kicks out of its grasp. Still on the surface, she tries to swim away from it, but with lightning speed it whips forward and bites her before she can get away for 17 ... right on the top of her head, and locks her fast again! Sinxia is now in the red.

R6T25-17: GME1 snaps at Fallon but she manages to dodge away. Fallon withdraws, trying to swim away as best she can, doing an accelerated swim.

R6T16: Even though he is underwater, the undine priest Teofilo's lyre was made to be mindful of wherever Ylimancha might take him, and seeing Sinxia in such dire peril he swims right up to the head-held Sinxia and plays his lyre, giving Sinxia 12. With a clarity an air-breather like Sinxia could never master, Teofilo's reedy voice in the water says, "C'mon, Sinxia, you've got to hold on the best you can!"

R6T14.5-14: The Scribe moves the boat around the spur so that the battle is now in sight. Erima continues to attempt to remove her armor, and is almost done.

R6T7-4: The giant moray eel grappling Sinxia begins to chew on her for 18, with throat action doing 5. Sinxia is now disabled. Rezah continues to labor with his armor.

R9T16: Teofilo casts CMW on Sinxia for 12. He pops his head above water to shout. "I've barely kept Sinxia alive the past thirty seconds. I need help over here!"

R9T15: The Scribe passes right by Fallon in oaring the boat, wheels south, and splits the area between Fallon and the eel.

R9T14: Erima, you start sratching at the stone wall of the grotto.

R9T7: The eel chomps on Sinxia for 15, causing her to go limp in its jaws, and the back throat starts to mash down on her limp body to try and eat her, doing 4. With her limp, the eel is now seen on the surface ... using her limp form and buoyancy to better leverage for eating its meal.

R9T4: Rezah and his armor ...

R9T3: Lilim, what do you do?

Sinxia on deck (dying), GME1 in the hole (grappling Fallon) ...

R9T3: Lilim casts magic missile defensively at GME2, hitting it for 19 force. Meanwhile, the acid arrow hurts GME1 for 8 acid.

End Round 9, Begin Round 10 ...

R10T25: GME1 goes under the boat and bites at Fallon, but has trouble getting her due to the invisibility.

R10T17: Fallon withdraws from the reach of the eel.

R10T16: Teofilo burns another CMW on Sinxia for 15, bringing her to consciousness.

R1015: The Scribe shrugs off the continued whispers that he's been hearing. He simply drops the oars (which are held now in oar-locks, not dropped into the water), stands, takes a breath of air, and jumps into the water to get between the eel and Fallon.

R10T14: Erima now, and for some time ... will continue to scratch at the wall where she is ...

R10T7: GME2 chomps on Sinxia for 15, having her go back unconscious again. Its throat does 6, and the entire stress of the situation causes Sinxia's heart to rupture, finally killing her. GME1 then submerges out of sight of anyone on the surface.

R10T3: Lilim, what do you do? You only have one enemy, and because of the cavern reflection on the water, you'd have to jump into the water yourself to target the closest enemy (GME1) because it went deeper. Also, remember to roll your final round of acid arrow damage.

End Round 10, Begin Round 11 ...

R11T25: GME1 bites at The Scribe, but is batted away.

R11T17: Now that she has some distance from immediate danger, Fallon does an accelerated swim.

R11T16: Teofilo also is now entirely gone from view as he gives chase to the other eel. He ends movement w/in 10' of GME2 and shoots an icicle at it for 5 cold.

R11T15: The Scribe acrobatically swims in five feet to grab the eel and gets ahold if it, squeezing for 5.

R11T7: Faced with an enemy that can swim as fast as it, GME2 lets go of Sinxia's body and closes on Teofilo, but his armor protects him.

R11T4: Rezah ...

R11T3: Lilim, you are holding your breath. The eel is being grabbed by The Scribe. Even with your darkvision, you no longer see Teofilo, the other eel, or Sinxia's body. You are 10' from the eel The Scribe is holding. What do you do?

R15T15: The Scribe takes out a substance from a small container - faintly amber, but otherwise clearish. He speaks up, loud enough for Teofilo to here, "Lilim, Teofilo ...the whispers will probably still affect us if we're not careful. Put some of this beeswax in your ear to muffle the effect. That might help." And with that, he plugs his ears with this substance.

"Imposter!" the Gray Maiden (G6) shrieks at the top of her lungs.

R1T30: With blinding reflexes The Scribe bolts to the middle of the room while taking something out and tosses it as G6. A set of bolas pound into her for 10 NL and knock her down.

R1T22: Taking advantage of his advantage, Teofilo flies past the fallen G6, past G1 (who is at the door) and into the next room and 5' above the table (10' altitude).

R1T21: Erima, though G6 called out you being an imposter, that didn't help her from being suprised by The Scribe. And, in a rare show of agility on your part, you have the jump on all of the opposition. What do you do?

R1T21: Grabbing her axe, Erima moves sides to side with the scribe, quickly showing her cold anger. "You'll pay for this!"

R1T20: G5 comes into the room, but she has to move around her fallen sister and that opens her up, so she tries to get into a protected position while fending off blows from The Scribe and Erima. The Scribe's ranseur picks the longsword out of her hands as she sidesteps her fallen friend, and Erima hits her in the helm for 22, causing her to stumble into the wall, severely wounded.

R1T19: Fallon quickly moves in behind The Scribe, and casts a spell at the doorway. A large area now seems to shimmer in some kind of slickness. G1 keeps her footing, but G5 and G2 both sllip and fall.

R1T17-8: G1 gets on her feet and moves into the room, just past the area of Fallon's grease spell, and now threatens The Scribe and Erima. G2 gets on her feet, then slips and falls again. G4 drops her longsword and takes out her crossbow to point it at Teofilo.

R2T30: The Scribe smiles. "Interesting, their combat style - despite falling about - is such that I am having trouble reading their movements." He steps to flank G2 with Erima, then kicks the mailed lady ... in her groin ... proving that women have sensitivity down there as well as he does 15 and sickens her! He then follows up with a fist to the same spot of her groin for 20, which is enough to cause her to go unconscious.

R2T22: Teofilo flies over to the NW corner of the room and then lets loose with a tremendous breath of air at G4 and G5, but nothing happens other than some chairs getting knocked around.

R2T21: Finally letting out her anger, Erima roars at the nearby guard, striking in the opening created. She strikes the fallen Gray Maiden in the chest for 31, which doesn't quite drop her, but she seems very unsteady.

R2T20: GM5 tries to withdraw into the Gray Maiden quarters (room with the table), but falls again, and is now prone.

R2T19: Fallon concentrates, not actually casting a spell, and G1, G5, and G6 all become limned in some sight of faint, ghostly light.

R2T18: Lilim, who was curiously inactive last round (whoops!) moves forward to stand astride GM2's fallen form. She concentrates defensively with a spell, and licks of flame engulf G1 (7)/ G5 (13)/ G6 (15). GM6 goes limp.

R2T17: G1 tries to step off the slick area, but falls. She crawls off of the slick, but not before The Scribe stabs her with Xin-Rithux in the buttocks for 14. GM1 clears the slick, but is prone (crawling).

R2T8: GM4 looses her shield (on her back, not drops it), then shoots at Teofilo, but it just clicks off of his armor.

R3T30: The Scribe readies his ranseur, tracing a circle to feint, but in the end simply stabs at GM5, but the latter expertly blocks the attack with her shield.

R3T22: Teofilo tries to float straight up some, fails, so ends up spending his energy position-keeping at his current altitude. He shoots an arc of electricity at the crawling GM1, hiting her for 11 electricity.

R3T21: Disdaining the disarmed guard with contempt, Erima moves toward the next standing guard. She is able to circumnavigate the slick areas in the room with the heroes, but she slips and falls once she gets into the next room. GM1 starts to laugh, and in anger Erima shouts, "You shouldn't defy me!"

Well, despite being on the floor, the gray maiden is still taken aback ... enough for Erima to swing up and over and hit GM1 deep in the belly .. dropping her. Unlike with GM6 in the other room, the strange, soft-colored flames on GM1 gutter out.

Spoiler: Erima

Show

Erima recognizes that the faerie fire effect that Fallon had cast only works on creatures, not objects. Once a creature dies, any creature-affecting magic on it fails (normally), and for most spells the corpse is just an object. This is an interesting tell-tale way (when other flames from the same casting of the spell are still going), that the target is dead, not just dying.

R3T20: GM5, still working a strong defense with her shield, attempts to pick up her longsword. The Scribe attacks with his ranseur but is blocked. Lilim meets with much more success, however, biting the gray maiden in the hip for 15, who slumps against the wall, motionless.

R3T19: Fallon looks into the other room, and casts a spell, focusing on GM4. She calls out, "Lay down your arms and step back until battle has quit, and your life need not be forfeit!"

Looking to her allies in the room, and pointing to GM4, "Don't attack that one until we know if my spell worked."

R3T18: Lilim casts a spell, and lets out a terrific, piercing shriek (shatter) towards GM3, but nothing happens.

R3T8: GM4 sets her crossbow on the chair by her, then backs up 20'.

R3T5: The last hostile Gray Maiden shrieks "Traitor!" at her sister. She shoots at Teofilo, the bolt smashing against a joint and barely protecting the undine priest-bard, and she drops the crossbow and picks up her longsword. She sidesteps out of view of most of the PCs in the other room.

End Round 3, Begin Round 4 ...

R4T30: The Scribe masterfully skates over the slick area and into the other room, faces down GM3, and drops his ranseur as he goes to grap her .... sloppily.

R4T22: Teofilo flies across the room to get a bead on GM3. He fires a horribly aime lightning arc at the metal-clad woman, somehow still hitting her for 6 electricity.

R4T21: Given her current positionning, Erima tries to stand back on her feet and get closer with one of the remaining guards.

R4T19: Its job finished, Fallon concentrates and the slick area disappears. She then flies into the other room and stands in the middle of the table to get a sense of the battle.

R4T18: Lilim moves into the room and along the north, taking a pot shot at GM3 with an acid splatter that hits her target for 11 acid.

R4T8: GM4 withdraws away from Erima, loops around to the SE, then jumps up on the table to stand by Fallon. "I yield myself to you, but beg your protection."

Fallon looks at Erima and says, "You heard me, Erima, go around the table and get to the other one. This one is my responsibility."

R4T5: GM3 readies her shield, does a salute to The Scribe to show her intent, and swings her sword (that The Scribe easily sidesteps).

End Round 4, Begin Round 5 ...

R5T30: As he spins to avoid the attack, the Scribe's left leg goes high and once he returns to facing his opponent - who extended just past him - he brings his leg down to wrench her at the elbow at just the right angle to make her drop her sword. He then goes to do a kick with the same leg that is up, but fumbles badly and ends up nauseating himself!

R5T22: Teofilo hits GM3 with another lightning arc for 7 electricity.

R5T19: Fallon says, "Stay here" to her pet, then flies down to the other guard to engage her. Normally, the Gray Maiden's protections would hold, but so focused is she on The Scribe that Fallon is able to successfully stab her with Silverfang for 6 in the left calf.

R5T18: Lilim casts a spell (that Erima doesn't recognize) and spits acid at the face of the last fighting Gray Maiden, doing 27 acid damage, instantly melting her face and killing her outright!

R1T21: "Make them come to us!" shouts Teofilo, and he throws up a wind wall right at the opening.

R1T18: Erima, for them to come into this room to the party, you will have to back up some (it is assumed you were providing door-opener cover to The Scribe). What do you do?
