The Unseen Servant forums

Practice makes perfect.

Everyone,
My last DM post was almost 4 days ago. I still need IC replies from Hoom, Mouser, Pelias and Urdur in order to move it along.

Thanks!

Thanks, Dads and Socratic.
I'll give Ale and Ron until the morning, then I have to move it along.

Socratic: I'll say you can spill oil and throw 2 daggers this time, but you can't also move after that in the same round. Next round.

Dads:

Lead by Mouser, they leave the cave of cages; the place they never thought they would leave again... alive.

...Hoom was buckling straps while he walked, and while waiting for his turn on the ladder. At the end of this round, he'll be done.

Thanks.

I assume that the goblins pushed over the edge by Borhino were replaced by new goblins? Or are those legacy goblins?

They're all there so Grothnak and Pelias can be awesomely heroic, cutting through them four at a time.

Goblins G2 and G3 were killed by Bo the Rhino, here: viewtopic.php?p=290692#p290692
They're still dead in my latest post. You can see them at the bottom of the shaft, the two red smudges in the SW quadrant of the floor:



While the heroes fought the fiery skeletons, the remaining 6 goblins (G1, G4, G5, G6, G7 and G8) spread out.

"What is it, boy? Is Timmy stuck down a well again?"

Whew... I thought they were multiplying... forgot there were 8 to begin with.

Moving it along.

ToniXX, please post two actions for Avril this round, so she can catch up.

Thanks!

OOC goes in spoilers please, or in this thread.

Rolls don't have to. Player's choice.

Zhym wrote:Grothnak
If necessary, he helps dispatch the remaining goblin on the stairs. When that goblin is dead, he waits for Pelias and Bo so they can proceed against the goblin zombies together.

Vadok (Halberd +1) (THAC0 18): [1d20+2] = 12+2 = 14, Dmg [1d10+4] = 8+4 = 12 (S/M) [2d6+4] = 7+4 = 11 (L)

Hi. Grothnak is too far from G1 to attack with his halberd. He charged last round, so he can't charge again for some time.
He can 'close to striking range,' attack with his bow, or do something else. Thanks.

Zhym wrote: Do raised dead count as summoned or conjured for purposes of a paladin's Protection from Evil aura?

I'll have to rule 'no.' Here's why:

• -The spell description carefully lists all the creatures it affects, and zombies aren't included even though they are always animated by magic.
  -These goblin zombies aren't 'summoned' from a 'Monster Summoning I' or 'Summon Insects' sort of conjuration/summoning spell. They are animated by a necromantic spell.
  -There's nothing in the Monster Manual mentioning it either, like there is for ghouls.

Sorry.
You still have a cleric within earshot, though.

Thanks. I've edited my post.

Thanks, Zhym.

Also, I've already cast my spell for the day? (Hopefully I haven't asked that yet )

Yes, Mouser cast Feather Fall earlier in a daring escape.

At least I was daring!

So why when firing missile weapons upwards their range is doubled, and downwards the range is halved? Seems like that should be reversed?

Hi,
Sorry that I was unclear. I think we're saying the same thing.

When firing up, instead of firing at a range of 3", you are effectively firing at a range of 6" for purposes of calculating the negative modifiers to hit, based on the medium and long ranges for your weapon.

Ha, no worries. I'm not even shooting, but was curious about that detail.
Thanks!

Urdur retrieves as many of his thrown daggers as possible...

Hi Socratic,
Two daggers are still in A1, who fell to the bottom of the stairwell shaft.
The third dagger is nearby, on the steps by A4.

Which daggers is Urdur collecting? Thanks.

He'll leave the two at the bottom, hoping to return for them later. He'll pick up the one by the stairs.

Thanks.

20 pages. Time to go.
