Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
THe rest of the party can carefully sneak up to the back of the manor house entering the crammed and stuff pantry, enjoying the faint tang of apples and warm smell of baking. Kona still sneaking ahead ghosts quietly up the stairs to what is the main hallway above, the main entrance way from the front raised slightly. Kona reaches the top of the stairs and can peer into the main hallway. Its impressive, a vaulted arched ceiling some 30ft above you, the vaulted arch decorated with paintings of all manner of strange jungle beasts that Kona would assume must be local. Large tapestries or screens of stretched fabric with more depictions of jungle and volcanic terrain suggest that the Governer is a fan of the local area.
Spoiler: Perception DC22
In about a third of the pictures there are whispers of more strange creatures, a hidden tentacle caressing a bird, an eye peering from the bushes with a vertical pupil, a comet in the skyline with tiny figures visible atop its surface adding a slightly alien feel to the images.
From the hallway large double doors head to the left and right into the east and west wings and a pair of curved stairways head up into the next level with heavy banisters and carpeted stairs.Thanks to Emperor Ing for the nice Avatar

Felix, with Isaac perked on his shoulder, keeping moving at the very last part of the party. He isnt sure about the whole situation but thinks Kon might be on the right track about the owner΄s room being upstairs.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Heading upstairs though the hallway Tygar and Felix can feel the magical sense of wrongness diminishing slightly as they ascend the stairs. The top of marble stairs an impressive corridor of whitewashed brickwork decorated with large portraits of the Governer in various heroic (and extremely unlikely) situations with a rather generous interpretation of his physique. The corridors branch out to the left and right. Double doors dominating the end of the rigght hand corridor (and two side doors) whilst to the left there are 6 doors leading off the corridor.
You'd guess that the master suite is to the right and the guest rooms are likely to the left (with presumably some of the rooms leading to others parts of manses' upstairs rooms).Thanks to Emperor Ing for the nice Avatar

Grimgor nodded at Lara's comments, whispering, Aye, Cap'n 'as the right o' it. If'n it be a party, ballroom's best bet. If'n it be a sacrifice, basement seems more'n likely ... He stood with his weapon at the ready, eyes darting back and forth as he tried to listen for sounds of revelry ... or debauchery.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Tygar nods.
"Rituals are commonplace underground. Rituals on the surface are rare without the setting being sequestered, altar-like or doomed."
The cleric will read the scroll of Magic Circle Against Evil the moment Kona or Grimgor detects the mastermind as in their descent to the basement/underground.Last edited by Yas392; 2022-11-15 at 04:05 AM.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Following the little fast steps of the kenku downstairs Kona can find a set of stairs down from the kitchen quarters. The stairs plunge down into the basement ending a short corridor where a trio of stout "normal looking" wooden doors are marked with mundane titles like "stores" and "wine cellar" but at the far end of the corridor a heavy thick red velvet curtain blocks the view of the end of the corridor. A quick peek around the edge of it reveals a heavy iron bound door with reinforced iron vambraces and a stout lock.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
To the magical senses of the priest and the arcanist both can detect a heady mixture of abjurant magics and conjurative magics. For both of the it reminiscent of the tang that summoning rituals would deliver with protective circles to bind the beasts and powerful conjuration effects As Lara looks at the door it appears to be locked with a stout lock... For the other two they cannot detect any magical auras coming off the door.

Kona the Illuminator
Kona looks around the circle of shaking heads. "Well. It seems that this door gets to fulfill its purpose, then. But I am not sure that leaving to deal with the priest first and then returning will actually yield better results. I suggest we embrace misfortune and start breaking down this door. That, or we hide and wait".Spoiler: STATS

Grimgor Ghoulsbane, Dwarven Warder
Listening to the discussion it was quickly apparent there were no sneak thiefs in the group, even if the bird man moved like one. With a grunt, he hefted his hammer and moved towards the door. Keep it quiet ifn ye can
Settling into a hunching stance, Grimgor slowly raised his hammer then brought it down upon the lock, hoping there wasnt a magical ward on it

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Grimgor advances towards the door hefting the heavy double handed hammer. With a single deliberate strike the hammer strikes the junction between the two doors and with a massive splintering sound the crossbar shatters and the twin doors swing open. The room beyond is a scene of chaos. A low ceilinged room with a barrel like ceiling stretsch some 40ft long and some 30ft wide. In two loose rows a half dozen people are bowed low on their knee's in faded yellow robes chanting in a strange tongue (Aklo) and ahead of them a strange series of symbols is makred on the floor in what looks like powdered silver. Also at the far end of the room is a blood stained lump of dark rock shackled to which is the noble you have all come to hate! Although currently the young man is semiconcious, eyes rolles back in his head and a drug addled expression on his face as he has clearly been dosed with something. Beside him, stripped to the waist revealing his corpulent rolls of fat and strange shifting tatoos that seem to writhe and wriggle on his obese stomach and chest is the governer clutching a stone knife above the noble's neck.
In the circle though is a strange "thing", a mass of flesh and faces and claws, writhing as its seems to be crawling through a rift in reality. A strange humming gibbering sound breaking through as you crash through the door.
OOC
Heroes have the suprise round. Know (Dungeoneering) can help ID the thing in the circle that is 30ft from the door. The governer is 40ft from the door. The six cultists are 10ft and 20ft for the first and second row of 3
All players may have a suprise action and then take their round 1 actions

Kona the Illuminator
Kona takes a gliding step in besides Grimgor, his swords already singing through the specific kata that unleashes--- a blast of lightning and a deafening crack of thunder. He peers at the bound nobleman. "I see. A fool as well as a pompous ****. But... if being a pompous fool was a capital crime, the world would be a barren wasteland. I hardly think I could claim to never have been one. We should save his unworthy life".

As soon as he detects something from the door that has circle reminisce of ritual circles, he reads the scroll of Magic Circle against Evil. The moment Grimgor opens the door, Tygar casts Shield on himself (surprise round) before casting Spiritual Weapon, targeting the Governor, moving away to behind a cover.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Grimgor Ghoulsbane, Dwarven Warder
Bursting open the door, the scene was straight out of a horror story. Fortunately, Grimgor rarely feared such tales, and they had come expecting trouble. "Les go, boys 'n gurls! Bring th'pain t'these fools!"
Swinging his hammer around his head, he released it with a mighty roar of effort as it flew towards the governor. Even as the hammer flew, he started rushing towards the monster, pulling free his pike as he shouted, "Watch tha' beatie's reach! An' ware those lads in the pews!"
Surprise - Swift action to use encouraging roar (+2 att / dam for all allies, 3 rounds); standard - Throwing Thunder, to launch his hammer as a ranged weapon at the governor. Range increment is 20', adds 2d6 dam, if it successfully hits, target makes a DC16 Ref save or is knocked prone. Attack - (1d20+7)[10], Damage - (1d12+4)[16]+Thunder - (2d6)[3]. If governor is considered 'in melee' (i.e., -4 to attack), then attack will go against the monster, I suppose.
Round 1 - Swift action - Defending the Pride (+4 AC AC for all allies, 3 rounds), charge the monster while drawing the pike (magic weapon), with power attack while in Primal Warrior Stance. Charge attack - (1d20+10)[20], Damage - (4d6+11)[19]

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
As the doors swing open to reveal poor Avner about to be sacrificed and the amorphouse horrific thing slowly forming in the heart of the temple the cultists whirl around, hands reaching for weapons at the their belts and the Governer snarling a angry look of bitter hatred at you all as what appears to be a small tentacle appears to unwrap from around his neck and slither back into his open shirt.
Kona clashes his swords together and with a crackle of lightning a sheet of electricity strikes 2 cultsists and the monster, a sizzle of ozone and the smell of burning flesh starting in the room. Behind him Tygar and Felix release a great cloud of arcane and divine protective spells as glowing shimmering shields of magic wards spring up around half the party before a glowing mace of strange spirtual force appears beside the governer smashing into him.
Even as the mage and priest do that Lara, Grimgor and Kona rush into the attack. A spinning massive hammer flies across the room hurled by the dwarf but clanging off a pew before the dwarf charges forward down the middle of the cultists with a great pair of war cries and impales the gibbering monster. Kona steps up behind him reaching the line of the cultists and in a pair flashing blades cuts down one of them. Lara, leaps over the cultists, vaulting over them all and then stabs at the governer leaving him with a deep gash in his left thigh.
The cultists scatter, 2 converging on Grimgor, and 3 spinning and attacking Kona (as the kenku blocks their path out and access to the mage and priest). The governer steps back away from Lara intoning strange alien words that ring in her ears, her blood pressure rising as she can feel her body freezing in place. The massive monster oozes towards grimgor, amorphously sliding along and around the war pike, little mouths reaching out to latch onto his hands and arms as it fills the room with strange alien burbling sounds that slowly fill and interfere with everyone's minds!

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
Grimgor Ghoulsbane, Dwarven Warder
Grimgor ignores the two cultists rushing him, brushing them aside easily as he waited for the creature to attack. When it did surge forward, several mouths appeared and began to shriek as they reached towards the dwarf hungrily while the beast bore down up on him. But even as the mouths attempt to find purchase on the savvy dwarf, he avoided all the bites. However, the shrill screaming was overwhelming, and Grimgor found himself shouting back, anything to drown out the sound. "Ah'll be eatin' pies t'night, huzzah! Huzzah! Oi, Ah'll be eatin' pies t'night, huzzah, huzzah! Ah'll be eatin' pies t'night, and drinkin' ale til' mornin' light, oi Ah'll be eatin pies t'night, huzzah, huzzah!"
Round 2 - Failed vs scream, so confused (babble) for one round. As I see it, all the attacks missed Grimgor, so no grapples, right?

Tygar attempts to resist the effect. His spiritual weapon continues to attack the Governor.

Lara freezes in place, her will dominated by the governor's spell.

Re: Savage Tide Reboot IC
In response to Lara's stillness, Tygar takes out his scroll of remove paralysis, 5 ft stepping forward if needed to read it to undo Lara's paralysis.
