Wizards In Winter - Low-Level Thread (DM: Son of Meepo, Judge: TwoHeadsBarking)

[Medina]

Marrgash looks up at his companions scaling the wall and sighs. Somewhat disheartened at his lack of progress he steels his resolve and tries to climb once more. He starts the climb again, before losing his footing and slipping back to where he started.

[sblock=Actions]
Move: Move to L26: Success (forgot to write a description on the roll, but I guess it's obvious what it is...)
Standard: Convert to move. Try to move to L24. Fail by more than 5, and slide back to L28
[/sblock]

 

[Someone]

With some difficulty, el chupacabra flies to the nearest ledge

OOC: double move to current position

 

[Wife Of Meepo]

Noctua watches as Ilex attempts to climb to the next ledge and seems to find all the loose rocks. However once they are all cleared, Ilex manages to climb to just below the ledge Noctua is on. Noctua eyes the cave warily watching for anything moving that is not Ilex's friends.

[sblock=actions]
Ilex - Move
Ilex attempts to climb from L22 to L19 and fails (1d20=9)
Ilex - Standard converted to second move
Ilex climbs from L22 to L19 (1d20=19)
Noctua - Readies a claw attack if anything exits the cave. [/sblock]

Lenyara continued to struggle up the cliff. She had a bit of trouble moving around the ledge by one of the caves. She paused for a moment, then scrambled up to the side of one of the caves.


[sblock= OOC]
>Move: Athletics check, DC 13; 1d20+7= 11 (fail, but not enough to fall); roll Roll Lookup

>Standard>Move: Athletics check, DC 13; 1d20+7= 27 (Success); roll Roll Lookup

Moved to spot on map

Luck is with Merri, she finds several hand grips in easy reach for the next part of her climb. As she scrambles up, she is reminded how much the terrain reminds her of the scree hills she climbed over last year. She scrambles the last little bit to the next cliff.

[sblock=actions]
Movement: Climb to N-21: 1d20 → [20] = (20) roll
Minor: Nature check to assist next climg: 1d20+7 → [3,7] = (10) roll
(Standard convert to) Movement: Climb to N-18: 1d20 → [19] = (19) roll
[/sblock]

 

[FourMonos]

OOC: Anyone still left to go?

 

[Son of Meepo]

As the group ascends the Cragwall, from the highest caves, horrific creatures emerge. They combine the body of a hawk with the head of a stag. Their roar comes out a shrill screech as they spread their wings, ready to take flight.

[sblock=initiative]Monsters: 16
Initiative (Lenyara, Chupacabra, Merri, Marrgash, Ilex) (1d20+5=19, 1d20+6=16, 1d20+4=8, 1d20+0=8, 1d20+1=8)

Lenyara and El Chupacabra go before the peryton. Merri, Marrgash, and Ilex go after them.[/sblock]

 

[Someone]

Startled by the horrid creatures, El Chupacabra descends to one of the lower ledges.

OOC: Double move to current position, no other actions. Next round I can use Pixie dust on whoever needs it more, possibly Marrgash so he at least has range to use his healing power.

 

[pathfinderq1]

Lenyara looked up, already growling in reflexive challenge. She knew, however, that the terrain favored the strange beasts a great deal. Trying to even things up, she moved into the cave and drew her weapons, hoping the narrow opening would hamper the creatures with their broad wings.

[sblock= OOC]
>Move: into cave on current ledge; 10 feet back from opening if possible
>Minor: (x2 if needed)- draw and ready weapons
[/sblock]

 

[Son of Meepo]

Two of the Peryton descend from their perches and snatch Noctua and Merri, pulling them off the ledges and tossing them from the wall. Merri tries to catch herself on the ledge, but isn't fast enough to grab it.

Another of the Peryton appears to chase after Noctua, but then pauses, landing after Noctua's body disappears to the Feywild. The last pertyon flies down trying to catch up to a broken Merri.
