[Active Thread] The Hall of Harsh Reflections

[ElectroZman]

Tex steps to 1223. If he doesn't notice anything, he moves to 1323 behind Worrel.

[Silverstone]

Lola follows Tex, while actively trying to notice anything of interest.

Waiting on Ardrea

 

[Jinxs-3d]

2nd Verse, same as the first.

Ardrea will follow behind the fighters as they advance. She will cackle to keep up the protective hex. While relaying any info from Ahm Shere.

[patransom]

OUT OF CHARACTER

I'll be out of town next week. Expect the next validation the week of March 24

 

Round 11 Begins

Recharging his mind blade with psychic energy, Cyrius thrusts in an attempt to again hit the doppelganger, but whiffs the attack.

Tex waits to follow Worrel...

Worrel moves around the corner, pausing when he reaches the passage to look for an opponent. He sees no enemies.

OUT OF CHARACTER

Worrel can use his additional movement next turn, as can the folks following behind him...

 

Tex checks the corridor to the north and sees no threats, so continues to move up behind Worrel.

Lola follows Tex, while actively trying to notice anything of interest. She also spots no danger.

Ardrea continues to communicate with Ahm Shere and relay any invisible opponents. She cackles to keep up the protection on Cyrius.

Upon hearing the satisfying clink of the +1 bullet hit, Prost loads another and lets it fly at the reported location of the enemy. His next bullet stops dead in midair as it connects with the unseen enemy [6 hp damage]

No one sees any doppelgangers. Ahm Shere's 2nd verse is the same as the first: the creature in 1225 remains there.

OUT OF CHARACTER

As I count it, Worrel has 25 ft remaining from last round. So, he has 65 ft of movement for this round. He's going to move 30 ft out, following the maze and then return to his current location. Unless he encounters a doppelganger, know that all of his companions are behind him.

 

Knowing that his companions are all behind him, Worrel quickly reconnoiters the area to the east.

[Silverstone]

Lola says “Worrel if you pass back your wand of cure light, i can heal you” then proceeds to follow Tex while actively checking the area area around her as she progresses.

[ElectroZman]

Tex keeps following Worrel.

[CGM3]

Cyrius again thrusts twice into 1225, seeking the doppelganger...

and probably misses the first time, but just in case...


and definitely misses the second time.

OUT OF CHARACTER

I need a new twenty-sider, this one's been bitten by the bear.

 

[smeltdm]

Fluffy is growling, and snapping at the blood-soaked air, as the doppelgangers keeps taking hits. Prost confidently, loads another bullet, letting it fly at D3. Prost however, is a bit too confident as his shot goes wide, under the influence of his bucking and snarling mount.

OUT OF CHARACTER

NAT 1!

 

OUT OF CHARACTER

Maybe D3 is intimidated by Fluffy...?

 

[smeltdm]

OUT OF CHARACTER

CGM3 maybe that shook out the bad rolls for a bit

 

[Jinxs-3d]

Ardrea will command the whip at attack D3, location 1225. She will use a move action to 'cackle' and keep up the protection.

[smeltdm]

OUT OF CHARACTER

Anybody know what's going on with ROLZ?...I notice now some of the rolls are not showing Now. CGM3 and my rolls are not visible...I would gladly reroll my nat one , and CGM3 would like a reroll too

 

[CGM3]

OUT OF CHARACTER

Mine showed at first, but now they're "Error: invalid roll ID"; seems like a problem at Rolz

Round 12 Begins

Cyrius again thrusts twice, seeking the doppelganger, but misses.

Knowing that his companions are all behind him, Worrel quickly reconnoiters the area to the east. When he reaches 1425, a wall slams shut between him and Tex (between 1424 and 1425).


However, there's an obvious route around this barrier (1324-1325-1326-1426), so the party continues exploring. At Worrel's farthest exploration (1726), he spots a door to the north (at 1724).


Because he found no enemies, Worrel returns to his starting location, using the alternate route.

OUT OF CHARACTER

Map at bottom shows final positioning. If you'd prefer to go investigate the door instead of returning, that's fine. Just let me know and I'll retcon.

 

Tex follows Worrel during his exploration.

Lola says “Worrel if you pass back your wand of cure light, i can heal you” then proceeds to follow Tex while actively checking the area area around her as she progresses.

Ardrea commands the whip to attack the invisible doppelganger. She then 'cackles' to keep up the protection. Improbably, the whip finds something to wrap around [2 hp nonlethal damage and the invisible doppelganger is briefly grappled]

Fluffy is growling, and snapping at the blood-soaked air, as the doppelgangers keeps taking hits. Prost confidently, loads another bullet, letting it fly at D3. Prost however, is a bit too confident as his shot goes wide, under the influence of his bucking and snarling mount.

Everyone watches as the whip shakes and then goes slack, Ahm Shere reports that the creature has escaped the whip and begun trying to slip past the group. Cyrius and Prost are unable to react to this news in time, but Fluffy bites at the air in front of him. Although Fluffy does not connect, Ahm Shere reports that the dog has forced the invisible foe to retreat back to 1225.

OUT OF CHARACTER

The doppelganger escaped the whip, then tried to sneak past all of you. However, because of Fluffy's scent ability, he discovered he can't pass through the dog's square without an acrobatics check. He wasn't willing to try the check, so he turned around and went back. Good dog, Fluffy!

[smeltdm]

“Good boy Fluffy” Prost lets another bullet (normal bullet) fly at D3

[CGM3]

“Well done, Fluffy,” Cyrius praises the dog. “If Athena wills, we can end this now,” he adds as he once more thrusts into 1225, seeking to stab doppelganger D3.

OUT OF CHARACTER

alas, critical not confirmed

 

If the first attack missed owing to invisibility and the second hits, add the 4 damage from psychic energy.

[JPetherick]

Worrel looks back at this companions, shaking his head. “"We probably should not have separated. Do you hear fighting behind us?”

Despite what he says, Worrel continues forward in search of a way back.

As Worrel moves north, followed by Tex and Lola, another wall slides up to separate the group.

OUT OF CHARACTER

Map below shows the likely result, although Worrel and/or Tex could try DC25 Reflex saves to be on the other side of the wall, if they want...

 

[ElectroZman]

Tex will head back to 1324.

[Silverstone]

Lola moves to 1323, staying alert.

[JPetherick]

Worrel attempts to jump back before the new wall closes. To his relief, he manages to scramble back beside Tex. “"That was close!"”



The paladin then stomps back to the west, trying to find a way either to their remaining companions or to an exit from this maze.

My bad. I was only scrolling back to the last map I posted, which wasn't an actual validation. I'll get it sorted tomorrow.
