The Fist makes quite the showing as they march out of the village of Cheerful Stay. Once the procession has passed the last house, the villagers return to their homes without fanfare.
By mid-morning the sun has risen overhead and warmed the earth, sending visible trails of steam from the vegetation lining the road, well more of a trail really. A squall of clouds crosses the sky, the rain falling under the front is easily visible. As is the path of the rain.
It doesn't take much for the icy rain to turn the road to mud. And with the warmed vegetation, the ground is soon covered in a blanket of fog that swirls around. Carver's extra height keeps his head above the low lying fog. Here and there he can see the fog swirling with the passage of his teammates.
Overhead Bliss finds the downpour uncomfortable as Mookie fights to maintain their flight. Below he can just see dark shapes of his companions passing in the fog, only Carver's head plainly visible.
The trudging is wet, muddy, and quiet.
Perception and survival checks please.

The cleric takes his standard watch, whichever is given to him, then preps his spells. He eats and drinks, copious amounts knowing that the trip is going to be hard and that they wouldn't be stopping. Linden always hated training in the forced marches, but now he's glad they were frequent.
He takes up a position near the middle of the party (or whereever the sergents tell him to be), keeping pace and only going ahead of the party if ordered to. He is keenly aware that the terrain and inhabitants are unusual. (Perc 14, Surv 9) The centaur is wary of every small sound in the trees, but it mostly turns out to be the heavier drops building and falling onto a hollow stump or a wet raccoon shaking off the wet. The mud and rain makes it hard to spot anything of import.

Cameron briefly thinks about swapping to his weapon and shield due to the fog but stays with the bow. He was more effective with it. He keeps watch ahead and to the ground looking for signs of the horde that has been trampling about the area.

William trudges along with the rest through this strange fog... He watches the area around him closely, trying to see what lies to their flanks, front and behind them (Perc = 8, Surv = 7) and also tries to see if the fog is acting unnatural or in a way that might insinuate it was created by magic or dark forces... (Know Arcana? = 16 ). He keeps his fistmates close to him, knowing there is safety in numbers... He's not scared, but is merely cautious and concerned about how the environment is changing so drastically...

In this weather, there is no use trying to stay aloft, as Mookie informs Bliss.
"Look, Kid, this is too much! I'm retired! Cantcha just walk for a change? I'm drowning here."
"Okay Mookie," says Bliss, walking next to Prudence and William. He says to them, "Excuse me, but would one of you please read this scroll of Mage Armor for me now. I think it is a good time."
The tiny halfling struggles to keep up, and thinks about how Lord Gargul's blessing would let him move faster on the ground. And he keeps his eyes open as the group moves forward.
Decrepit Old Churches (DM Ezra) Thursday February 20th, 2014 4:03:27 PM My apologies, I didn't realize that Linden was also a centaur, and thus he would have also been able to see over the fog. Hmm, the survival DC to avoid getting lost is 15, without fog...
Everyone is at full health from Linden's channels the previous night.
Carver realizes that 5 or 6 feet, the usual height of a fog from temperature variences between wet rain and warm ground, the smaller members of the party (the two halflings and a dwarf) would be easily swallowed by the fog, while the humans would only just have their heads visible.
Between Prudence and Carver, the two of them are able to keep the others grouped, even as they frequently start to veer off. The only two to make the survival check
As Bliss came down, he saw the same sight as Carver and Linden, a canted steeple in the distance.
Those beating a perception check of 20, and able to see over the fog, note a figure standing on the roof, partially shrouded by the steeple.
The fog is burning off with the passing of the rain, and will soon dissipate. It is mid afternoon.

Thing is I can't tell you he isn't just some villager that got lost out here and climbed to the roof for a look around. We might be shooting someone unrelated to this problem." "What do you guys want to do?" Cameron, being pretty sneaky is willing to try and sneak in, but if the rest want to shoot the lookout down he is willing and able to do that too.

"Blizzard, take Mookie and scout the steeple. Make no hostile actions. If he shoots at Bliss, then we know. By then, we will have trained our bows on him and we can take him down." Suggests the centaur. "Otherwise, we risk hurting an innocent. Either way, we'll know. Anyone have a Detect Evil available to them?"
Linden will use a Sacrificial Bond ready for if Bliss or Mookie take damage. He preps his crossbow.

Now, if it's true they took the book, then we deal with them, at blade point or with a clenched mailed fist as needed. By the way, I can use that necklace, I get easier to target when I charge with my lance, because I'm focused on the tip of my lance and my targets easiest to hit spot."

Tinker, stuck in the fog and not able to see out, can only let the taller ones talk of what they see. "You want a check to see if the person in the steeple is hiding from undead or a lookout, there are always three of us who don't have to stoop and be in the fog. Can make a pretty good strike team, too."

IC: Nikolai whispers to Pru, "Good time to give me that magical armor would be about now."
He then, quiet as possible, tells the others he sees the person atop the church roof. "We do need to verify who that is and if indeed they have what we came for. The Mailed Fist may not have a good reputation in these parts, but we certainly don't need to make it worse."
He suggests to continue on their course, albeit as stealthy as possible. "This fog may be hindering us, but it hinders them also."

"Besides, the rain is ending at last, and we would love to get above this fog, right Mookie?"
"I'm dropping you if I get shot, Kid!" Mookie warns.
"Mookie! Seriously!" laughs Bliss.
The two fly up and toward the tower, keeping a look out and trying to tell if that fellow is undead or not.
Bliss casts his Deathwatch cantrip. That should clear up the issue too sweet.

She casts Mage Armor on Nikolai.

At this range, Carver does not get an indication that the being is evil. Getting closer may give better results.
The rest of the Fist prepares for a possible encounter.
The tiny halfling on the large raven must get within 30; for deathwatch to positively identify the individual as undead or mortal.
As Bliss and Mookie draw closer, they see and hear the now recognizable human thump his foot against the steeple thump.
He raises a crossbow and brings it up, Declare yourself!.
From around the back side of the church Bliss sees two disturbances and the fleeting signs of a pair of heads walking. At the shout from the man on the roof, they stop. One jumps up to get his head above the fog and looks up at the human. He doesn't see Bliss.
I should have a map ready for Monday.

Pru remembers how effective the Dancing Lights spell had been during the team's Stealth test, and decides to try something similar. She casts a Dancing Lights, using it to create a cluster of 4 glowing lights that look like will-o-wisps. She places the lights about 100 feet to the side of the party, near the top of the fog so that they can be seen from the church. She moves the lights parallel to the party as they approach.

Tinker agrees with Nickolai and hustles towards the church as stealthily as he may. With the fog and his natural ability to not attract attention, the dwarf feels he can get pretty close. And the others can always charge to the rescue if things go down the sewers!

Bliss laughs and calls out to the fellow, "Hello, Mister Crossbow Man! Please don't shoot! I am Bliss of the Fist! We're here to fight zombies and find a lost magic item. We're staying in that inn over that-a-ways!"
The tiny halfling points in the direction from which they came. "We saved a bunch of people, and we'll save you too, if you need saving! No problem! We're looking for the source of these undead things so we can put a stop to that. Lord Gargul don't much like undead, so neither do I!"

Linden counts to ten silently to himself, then follows the group, shield raised and morningstar at his side. Of course, it is virtually impossible to move with haste and silence, so he doesn't try. He moves at a stead pace. The fog is unsettling, knowing that another zombie or nasty could be lurking in it.

I have placed everyone in a starting location (scroll down). If you wish to be someplace else, speak now.
While the rest of the Fist sorts itself out, Bliss talks to the lookout, making an unfortunately poor presentation of the Fist. Robbers and cutthroats more like! Who else would be tramping about in this weather? How many are you?
He suddenly perks up, using the steeple to cover himself as he swings the crossbow up and points it towards Bliss. Who be with ye? Call them to come forth, their hands raised!He has seen the dancing lights.
Without taking his eyes from the circling Bliss and Mookie, he calls down, Four more, south and west!
Can Mookie hover? If not, what is his minimum movement?

OOC Those of us who snuck ahead didn't get any space between ourselves and the obvious group? IC Cameron curses Bliss under his breath.

In response to the crossbowman's harsh words, a high-pitched female voice is heard: "So I must say, that some grouchy puss woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!"
"You said it, Mom!" declares Bliss, who has squeezed his Vauhwyt action figure. "Mister man, you're not my commanding officer! I don't have to take orders from you!"
Mookie can fly but only 40 (average). No hovering! He'll circle around the tower until it looks like a fight is going to start. Which looks like it is doing right now! He'll land and set Bliss down.
Mookie caws, "Kid, this is looking like a situation, and I'm putting you down! I'm retired!"
"Okay! Okay!" says Bliss. "All this circling is making me dizzy anyway! Mister, I'll do it your way! Let me just stop flying around and around and I'll tell you all about it."
Mookie perches on the windowsill and Bliss hops off.
Maybe that means the fellow will take a shot at Bliss if he had a readied attack! If so, his AC (with the mage armor, thank goodness) is 21.
Fortunately, the fellow does not have a melee weapon, so he cannot make attacks of opportunity (unless he has the Improved Unarmed Strike feat). So Bliss does not provoke an AoO, even as he enters the crossbowman's very same square (Bliss is tiny so he can do that.)
Not wanting to attack exactly, Bliss casts his witch cantrip, Lesser Confusion. Since he is not armed, the rude crossbowman cannot take an AoO to spoil his spell. Bliss's ley line check is a 22, so it works fine. The save DC is 12.

The spell description for Dancing Lights says they "move as you desire," but is mute on the subject of what kind of action it takes to move them.
If possible, Pru would like to double-move to Y-37, and move the Dancing Lights parallel, to D-37. If the DM rules that Pru needs a move action to move the Dancing Lights, then they'll each take a single move.
[The Dancing Lights can move up to 100 feet per round, but Pru is trying to make them look like people approaching, so she doesn't want to move them that fast.]

Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) Tuesday February 25th, 2014 4:21:16 PM
Those that are not flying or a centaur need to add a survival roll or be talking loud enough to each other to not get lost in the fog. Note that you do have issues with visibility. Unless you climb on a centaur...
Cameron sneaks off, not realizing the shout is hte dancing lights Prudence cast, which he can't see anyway. How is Cameron maintaining his sense of direction as he sneaks off? Without knowing how far ahead you wanted to get, I didn't make any guesses (Johny will sneak ahead 30') is much better for me to know what you are planing. Since stealthy movement is at 1/2 speed, you wouldn't have gotten far. Please note a location.
William easily crouches into the fog. He tries to move with the others, but can only see anyone within 5' of himself, and they are quickly dispersing.
Tinker quickly moves forward hoping his team can continue to see him, hear him, or more likely, as a dwarf, smell him. How are you maintaining direction?
Nikolai cautions against splitting up, as the Fist splits up. He manages to keep on the dwarf's heels, and doesn't lose sight of him.
Mookie and Bliss drop down and land. If Mookie is perching on a windowsill of the church, how would this be entering the square of the guy standing on the roof? I had not noted windowsills previously, but have now done so. There are several. To which are you headed? I don't see a note of special dispensation for Bliss I thought single level class dips were not allowed.
Carver suggests the others follow the road, such advice ignored, as he moves himself off to the side and forward. You are large, not huge? Should be just noting two cells.
Prudence runs forward, following the road and mentally keeping the dancing lights even with herself. Prudence, it's a free action (no concentration required).
And Linden remains frozen as the Fist spreads its fingers wide and continues ahead.
Fog provides concealment 20%, granted at more than 5'. Perception: Hear a conversation; DC 0, modified by +1 per 10', and fog provides a dampening effect to sound for an additional modifier of +2. This is a DC 15 from the human on the steeple to Tinker's current position.

OOC Um, we are 2nd level, I have 2 single level class dips right now. and will until I am 6th level where the rule says you can't go beyond with a single level (unless it is the 1st level of a new class). Knowing I needed a survival roll before moved would have prompted me to roll one when I moved. When I first moved there was no map and the non stealthy folks held back for a round, I was hoping for at least that 10' of separation. The second move I neglected to note a location, my bad.

Tinker is not a woodsdwarf, and so keeps moving forward as long as he can see the road only five feet away in the fog to his right. He thinks; "If I keep the road that was leading to the church in sight, we'll be able to get to the church without losing our way."
At least the others are giving plenty of distraction to the ones at the church, Tinker thinks with grim humor. Flitting through the fog like a shadow, the dwarf is thankful of his skills and his cleanliness to remain unseen, unheard, and unsmelled.

Carver trots ahead to p,q,37,38. HE doesn't try to be stealthy, but then again being large and standing haunches and torso above the fog sort of gives him away.
OOC: Large creatures, either long or tall, both are 10x10. Tall have 10' reach, long have 5' reach is the difference. Thats why I gave the 4 square location.

Bliss lands on the broken steeple. There might not be a place for a human to stand, but tiny Bliss thinks he sees a couple places that would let him stand safely. He lands on a windowsill, or doorway, or whatever that opening is, and is that a railing to grab onto? Right about here?
From this vantage point, Bliss calls out to the crossbowman, "Look, we just want to fight undead. That's why we came here. You're alive, right? We're on the same side."

Linden tries to remain vigilant in the fog as the other members of the Fist disappear before him. Fortunately he can see over most of the fog and can see the church and the lookout on top of it.
Cameron had been creeping forward, slowly, along the old path. He was hidden in the fog from his companions and those ahead.
Tinker and Nikolai continue to sneak slowly along the old road as well. Tinker realized that he lost sight of the road (having stepped 15' from it) but was able to reclaim sight of it.
As neither posted a position, but both indicated stealth movement, I have placed them 10' forward and slightly east, with Nikolai now within 5' of the road.
Carver manages to not walk over anyone as he trots forward, unconcerned about attempts to hide.
Prudence nearly got lost in a garderobe, fortunately she bumped into Nikolai and resumed her trek along the path. :)
Bliss, unaware of his threatening actions, lands nearly on top of the startled look out. His attempts at a diplomatic resolution swirling into the garderobe.
From below, one of the two that had come from the side of the church yells up What's the ruckus Rufford? Whoa! Look at the size of that bird! Catch it! I haven't had meat in days!
His companion nudges him Quiet, your stomach will get you killed. Rufford said there were more out in the fog. Placing a hand on his companion's shoulder, he steps up on somethign hidden in the fog. Frack! Two more, centaurs! Jumping down the unmistakable sound of drawn steel is heard as the two of them back towards the corner of the church.
Bliss hears several pairs of feet from inside the church.
Rufford takes a step back from Bliss and points the crossbow directly at him, enough of your games! Who are you?
As a tiny creature, Bliss is unable to threaten other squares without entering them.
The front door of the church slams open and another human, decked in full plate armor stands in the doorway, What in tarnation is going on out here?

Linden moves toward the sound of crashing doors and metal, undercover the the sound, he should remain realitively stealthy. (OOC: I realize he's been seen already, but Linden doesn't have a clue.) [Moves to roughly Z34]
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC21, HP16 of 16) Wednesday February 26th, 2014 6:03:15 PM
Bliss puffs out his chest.
"I'm Bliss of the Fist! I'm here to chew gum and kill zombies!"
The tiny fellow pats his pockets.
"Wowsy! Looks like I am out of gum!"
He looks at the guy.
"Got any gum?"

Tinker can't see a blessed thing other than the road and Nickolai, so he continues his stealthy advance, crossbow still in hand.

Carver once again trots forward to 31,32,o,p, then yells out,"You idiots, douse them lights, if I can see them so can they." Then muttering loud enough to be almost over heard, "Damn trainees not smart enough to come in out of the rain, unless you hold their hands and tell them when to blow their noses."
That should center attention on the lights and on him, giving the others some more cover.
Prudence Gundle (Kathy) Wednesday February 26th, 2014 10:59:46 PM
Unable to tell where the others are, Pru stops and stays where she is, uncertain what to do next.
Carver's shout gives her some ideas, so she makes the Dancing Lights pause, then move in frantic, scrambling circles. Then she pulls them down almost to ground level (in the square they're currently in), hoping that will conceal them and make it look as if the lights had been "doused."

Nikolai perceives Carver's attempt to throw their opponents off and grins, although it is too soon to know it they are an Enemy or merely Opponents. Keeping the road 5' to his right and Tinker 5' to his left, he continues to move towards the church, tugging on Tinker's sleve when the dwarf starts to veer away.
Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) Thursday February 27th, 2014 6:42:06 PM
Linden hurries forward towards the front of the church. He is tall enough to see over the fog.
William keeps pace with Linden, and with the larger creature next to him, easily navigates the fog.
With diplomacy failing, Bliss tries for humor. Rufford, takes another step back, an inquisitive look as he listens to the tiny halfling. Responding to the bellow from below, I don't know! It looks like a puppet, cocky bastard. He was riding a magicked raven. And he's got friends coming at us!
Tinker continues to push forward. The outlines of a large building are coming into view. The fog in front of him is clearing.
Cameron also pushes forward, switching from ranged to sword'n'board.
Carver shifts to the side and bellows instructions to Prudence, effectively centering attention on himself. Carver sees that the fog is clearing off in front of him. He can see the upper half of two individuals near the corner of the church. One wielding a stout quarterstaff, the other a rapier, there are several indistinct shapes in the fog before him, low to the ground, several dozen, lined up in rows between Carver and the church.
Prudence attempts some trickery with the dancing lights. Since she can't see them, she can only hope she was effective.
Nikolai heard Carver shouting, and keeps pace with Tinker. He also can see that the fog is burning off in front of him.
My sword! Reaching back into the church, the man at the door soon pulls forth a large greatsword and rests it on one shoulder. A fight be ye wanting? Well then, bring it on. We'll not start it, but by the gods, we'll finish it!
While Rufford on the roof is clearly suffering a serious case of trigger finger and waiting for any move from Bliss, it is obvious that the others are maintaining a defensive posture.
Are you in a common uniform? Visible insignia?

OOC Of course we are in uniform, we are members of the Mailed Fist's new elite unit after all. For confirmation see the post where we marched out of town, IC Hearing that they will not start the fight, Cameron switches gears into his face role with the double fist. He sheathes his longsword and keeps his shield handy ( It is Fist issue and as such has the 'Fist's symbol on it). Knowing he won't be able to beat the others to the church normally he gives a few orders, hoping his friends get his drift. " FIST, HOLD IN PLACE. EYES PEELED, REPORT HOSTILE ACTIONS." He then moves quickly (double move to X/26) and calls out to the church. " We heard that there might be more folks at the church and came out to see if there was anything we could do here. The zombies have been pretty thick in town. We would like to approach and talk. By your leave?" Diplomacy 25
OOC When he calls out FIST he intentionally only says 1 fist. If allowed in, he hopes at least 3 people stay behind hidden as a reserve. 4 could stay since Cameron is not wearing any rank and is just a mouthpiece, not a sergeant. We really need to establish a Fistcentric language similar to thieves cant or druidic to convey these messages.

Tinker has to have a short debate in his head on whether he will follow Cameron's commands or if he's going to continue sneaking. It is the thinning fog that does it, and the rogue crouches in place, one hand out to Nickolai's hand so the monk knows Tinker has stopped moving.
His eyes glitter waiting on .... OK, he isn't sure what, but patience is as good a weapon as anything else!

He rears up, slamming his hooves down, but also halts, but is sure to present his shield face, the one with the Mailed Fist's insignia on it. "You fire upon us, and I'll be sure to bury you face down when we're done." He exclaims.

Linden continues forward, eventually breaking the fog. "Hostile actions are uncivilized, especially when neither party wants to harm a soul. Flower would not like it if one of her clerics, namely myself, were part of such acts. How can I serve you gentleman? Need healing? Wounds tended? So, dudes, it would be real lame if we had to go and hurt each other for no reason and stuff." Says the centaur, with honest intent.

Hearing the challenge, Cameron calls out his peaceable intentions while rushing forward. His head just bursts from the fog at the end of his run. He can see that the fog is burning off and is nearly gone around the base of the church. To his left he can just glimpse the shadows of several objects in the fog arrayed in formation between the church and Carver. At the corner of the church furthest from him he can see the two men with drawn weapons, as well as the man in front of him sporting full plate and a greatsword. There is no reaction to his exclamation of "Fist." Cameron can tell that the men are seasoned, trained, and ready to engage in violence for their cause. As mentioned, they do not appear to be aggressive.
Whether his teammates can read his mind on his choice of vocabulary remains to be seen. Technically, this probably should have been a bluff check as you were less than fully honest in your intentions on coming here.
Carver manages to come across as a prancing pony with his threat of violence.
Linden and William continue forward, also breaking from the deeper fog. Linden's comments are received better than his companions. Flower? Prove yourself her servant! this shouted from one of the men standing at the corner of the church.
Meanwhile, Tinker and Nikolai crouch and attempt to hide in the remnants of the fog.
Bliss is only able to see the lookout in front of him, he can sense Rufford is rather uncomfortable with his close presence and is ready to fire at any wrong move by Bliss, fortunately, he does appear to be in a reactive state.
Prudence waits for further developments.
Hold your Fist? By a virgin's first kiss you better hold yer fist! Come in peace?! Bah! Who comes in silence hidden by fog to help? If you want to bring your fist to a sword fight then do so! Upon hearing of a reference to the god Flower. Serve Flower you claim? Then tell me, the twins born of Flower, were they proof that evil is born innate, or is evil learned?

Crouched in the fog, all Nikolai can do is listen to the interaction between his friends and the others.
Nikolai moves if Tinker moves. Otherwise he stays crouched and guiet, listening.

Kneeling down Tinker finds himself closer to the ground than usual. Reaching down he grasps a handful of dirt and starts sorting through it, hmm, ahh, now that's interesting...
Hearing the comments and questions flying about ahead of him he takes a moment to wiggle his pinky into an ear and dig around, clearing out a wad of wax. Laughing softly to Nikolai he comments sounds like a bunch of that 'ligious mumbo-jumbo. And a riddle at that. 'ope Linden didn't skip his classes at the rectory.
Tossing the dirt aside he grips his urgosh and waits.
Prudence Gundle (Kathy) d20+5=24 ; Tuesday March 4th, 2014 3:15:35 PM
"The fog is natural," Pru says. She pitches her voice to carry, but keeps her tone calm and reasonable. "It's not as though we created it on purpose. And we're not hiding. Here we are."
If possible, Pru would like to re-position her lanterns like this: one up next to Bliss on the roof, one over Carver's head, one over Linden and William, and one over her own position. She deliberately does not light up Tinker and Nikolai.
If that isn't possible, she brings all the lanterns to reveal her own position, since Bliss, Carver, Linden, and William have already revealed themselves.
[Diplomacy 24]
DM Ezra: Since Prudence can't see most of her companions, doesn't know where most of them are in relation to herself, and can't currently see her lanterns (but has a magical sense of direction and distance (yes, I'm giving you that)), she'd have a hard time doing much more than revealing them by moving them above the fog, or revealing herself or pointing out those she can see.

Cameron is at his wits end by this point. In a countryside overrun by the undead they are playing 20 questions with some puffed up man at arms. He knows that Linden knows his religion well but doesn't care for this line of questioning. He reaches into his pocket to keep his sword hand from drawing his weapon and feels the necklace of fireballs they found the first night in there. He again takes the negotiations back over. He steps forward another 20 feet to X22 while trying to reason with the armored person. " Look, yesterday we killed every undead in town and now we are looking for their source. The townsfolk will vouch for us because we saved their friends and family and are genuinely trying to help them. The undead seem to be coming from this way, they mentioned a church. Churches would have graveyards, supplying the raw material for undead like we fought and so we came out here. The church is abandoned according to those that live here so there shouldn't be any objection to us taking a look around.

While Linden ponders a response to the challenge presented, Cameron pushes forward with his own challenge.
Diplomacy of 15 misses by more than 5 on a base DC of 20+, dropping the attitude. intimidate was also a fail by 5 or more. Your lies are more believable.
A shadow of a figure darts across one of the windows, a voice hisses from inside the church Mailed Fist? They're mercenaries! Paid fighters!
A peaceful solution is becoming less likely. Though Prudence' revelation of herself does mitigate factors somewhat.
Mercenaries? These miscreants? Hoodlums in fancy potato sacks, more likely.
Enough fog has burned away to reveal there is indeed a cemetery between the Fist and the church. This would be difficult terrain for large creatures.

Giving Carver a good appreciation, well that one might be worthy. Oh hey, they all have the same styles! What did Samsilk call them? Mailed Fist? Is that some sort of delivery service?
No idea, though that one isn't male, I'll happily show her my fist.
The one at the front of the church, that's mighty optimistic for a bunch of younglings. Faith pretenders and charlatans is what you appear. A look of loathing crosses his face at Linden's response. Any true follower of Flower would have known that she bore only one child, to the dragon Flame. The second child was born to King Claudia, in Flower's body. It was from the evil innate to those children that Flower set foot on the road to love. Any true follower would know that.
On the roof, Rufford, who is still ready to knock Bliss off the roof with a bolt, comments Oh god, now you've done it. You've gone and gotten the Justice talking about religion! Better do something quick, I'd rather not have to take you in.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC21, HP16 of 16) d20+11=21 ; Wednesday March 5th, 2014 6:30:39 PM
Bliss leans over to talk to the fellow. "We're mercs, sure, that's what the Mailed Fist is. We're here looking for robbers we were hired to catch. But we're people too, and we're happy to try to stop this plague of undead. We don't want any trouble. We just want to do our jobs and kill some zombies."
From where he is, Bliss looks down into the gravveyard. Any sign of recently disturbed graves, bodies being unearthed, the living dead rising, anything like that?

William shakes his head, convinced this will probably turn into a fight. He doesn't know much about religion at this point so cant add much to the discussion. However, he's not happy with them insulting his fist mates and is on the verge of starting the fight himself. He does stay concealed and quiet for now.

Pru continues to advance, moving to a position just behind Cameron [X-23]. The Dancing Lights continue to follow her.

OOC: does Tinker and Nikolai notice the fog thining? Do they now glimps the headstones of the graveyard?
IC: (See above questions) Nikolai senses that things aren't going too well. For whatever reason, the leader of this group is being dodgy. They've mentioned fighting zombies several times and the leader has not even acknowledged that or commented on their own encounters with any undead, or lack thereof.
To Tinker he whispers, "They are being too dodgy about all this. They've not made any comment about seeing or fighting undead also. They are hidding something for sure."
He looks around, wondering how long the fog will last. "Tinker, this fog won't last forever. We need to find a better hidding place."

"You are passionate about religion, are you? That's fantastic."

Tinker listens to Nikolai, this situation is degrading seriously. Our mission was to retrieve the book, not debate, nor rush into every encounter with weapons drawn.
Standing, Tinker walks forward as he clears the fog and sheathes his weapon. Grabbing his young beard he starts wringing the moisture from it. All this talk about religion, jabbering, and jawing. It leads me to think we are not at cross purposes. We haven't run you through, you haven't run us through. Let's just take a moment to consider where we are.

Bliss does not see any indication that the graves have been disturbed. As old as this church is, and assuming the interred are as old, this is not the source of the undead they fought in the village.
Cameron recalls that a title 'Justice' has something to do with the church of Pantheon.
Carver re-positions himself, and gets off someones grave.
William manages to maintain self control while itching to swing at something.
Prudence brings her lights to herself and approaches.
Nikolai talkes with Tinker about the situation and moves into the headstones for cover. Followed by William.
Linden doesn't realize he missed his opportunity to defend his statement as a follower of Flower and asks a rebuttal. History is so often written by the victors. I try to not consider why dragons do anything. Why was Claudia titled a king instead of a queen?

Linden quirks an eyebrow, still smiling. "Kings usually have final say. Queens are often viewed as a secondary figure in a kingdom. That's why it's a KINGdom and not a QUEENdom."

Nikolai is also beginning to loose patience with beating around the bush. However, theses guys may slip up and give something away given enough tme. It still bothers him that these guys gave no reaction to the statement that there were undead about.
"No denial, no confirmation of them even having seen any undead. Not even a recognition of our statements. It is as if they knew about it and simply ignored it. Hmmfff."
Nikolai remains hidden as Tinker goes forward. He thinks he remembers hearing voices over near the back corner of the old church and decides to remain put in case they come at Tinker.

Cameron tires of this endless fencing and walks forward to enter the church, following the path.(move forward to X/18). His gait is unhurried and he makes no threatening actions, but he most certainly intends to enter the church and have a look around.

Pru frowns and looks around her. These men, whoever they are, are not behaving normally. They don't respond when spoken to, except for the strange voice inside the church, who seems to want to quiz them.
"You know," she says, still pitching her voice to carry, "my companions and I already passed our final exams. And, unless the shade of King Claudia is going to show up and explain what you are doing here, she really has no bearing on the conversation."

To recap, the fist was spotted on approach to the church. BLiss, flying ahead as scout, did poorly in his attempts at a diplomatic resolution when he landed right next to a lookout with an itchy trigger finger. Two additional men were patrolling around the church and observed some of the Fist approaching through the fog. Another individual emerged from the fog and requested intentions and identifications.
The Fist's additional attempts at diplomacy continued to fair poorly, as did their attempts to intimidate the guards about the church. One member of the Fist declared their peaceful intentions as a follower of the god Flower, but then failed to respond to a direct inquiry to prove knowledge of Flower's ascension.
One of the individuals was referred to with the title "justice" which a member of the fist recalled is used in reference to some members of the church of Pantheon.
Several comments have been made and ignored about killing undead, though there is no sign that the graves near the church have been disturbed. At least one person in the group has heard of the Fist, but their information is more urban legend than fact.
The Fist finds itself in something of a standoff with an unknown number of individuals, though at least four are visible, and at least one more heard. The group they are addressing has shown discipline, training, and seems unconcerned at the apparent imbalance in bodies on each side of the conversation.
Several members of the Fist are growing impatient and ready to engage in a more direct diplomatic approach.
With several members of the Fist talking, the one individual talking directly to the Fist is hard pressed to hear and respond to all. It is apparent that the others are deferring to him for guidance.
On both sides weapons are held ready, a physical confrontation seems inevitable.

"My friend, I am a cleric of Flower before being a Fist. I really don't like confrontation with intelligent creatures if I can help it. I'm not what you call smart, but my herd prides itself on peaceful solutions to confrontation. We are simply looking for a source to an undead infestation in the area and happened to track it here. It might have come from here or beyond the church even. We thought here would be a good start looking for clues, then our scout saw your lookout and here we are."
"Names... No one seems to have started formal pleasantries, if I'm not mistaken. I'm Linden."
"Have you seen any undead in this area, my friend? We have inquired a couple times and have been ignored. I understand why. You have no reason to trust of believe us."
Linden puts away his morningstar and lowers his shield, however, the shield is still tight in hand.

[So, my 24 Diplomacy check was a failure? And Cameron's 18 Diplomacy check, boosted to a 20 by my Aid Another action, was also a failure? Or is it that they're just not listening to me and Cameron, and Linden has to roll all the Diplomacy checks? Can we Aid Another? Or is Linden on his own?]
Moving slowly, Pru sets her longspear on the ground. It is, she tells herself, to de-escalate the situation and calm down the men in the church, and not at all because the spear is heavy and she's tired of carrying it. For good measure, she sets her crossbow down as well.
"And I'm Prudence," she says, building on Linden's introductions. "And the impetuous young man up on the roof is Bliss. We have a specific mission, and that mission doesn't include attacking you." Well, not specifically. "I think we can work this out. I think we should work this out, because there are much more dangerous things running around out here."
[That is a Diplomacy check of 18. I would prefer to use it to Aid Another to whomever these guys are actually listening to.]
DM Ezra Base DC for a diplomacy check is 25 +cha modifier of a hostile target (20 for unfriendly). I show your roll as an 18, which would boost Cameron's 18 to 20. Not likely to succeed.

Previously Cameron tires of this endless fencing and walks forward to enter the church, following the path.(move forward to X/18). His gait is unhurried and he makes no threatening actions, but he most certainly intends to enter the church and have a look around. Now Cameron hears his friends giving this one last go at a peaceful ending. He is pretty sure any of the things he has said to these folks has just pissed them off more than they were when they started talking to the Fist, so he holds in place and waits to see what the outcome of this latest round of talks yields. If hostilities erupt he will dash to T/15 this might give him cover from archers he doesn't see yet and should keep the big guy in the plate armor from being able to charge him.

Carver had continued to advance, stamping his hooves, on the two guards at the back corner of the church, both of whom shift slightly and raise their weapons in readiness.
Linden attempts to recover his position and lays down his weapon.
Bliss fumbles and casts a spell on himself, unfortunately his fumble was enough to unsettle the guard on the roof. That would be the guard with the readied weapon and an itchy trigger finger. The crossbow bolt flies across the short distance and thunks into Bliss' thigh 9 points.
Prudence also works to salvage the deteriorating situation by asking to talk, and laying down her weapon.
Cameron continues to advance forward, ready to react to hostilities.
William can only watch as the situation collapses.
With the audible and recognizable twang of the crossbow firing, the situation quickly changes.
The man at the door casts a spell, disappearing from view. Rufford drops his crossbow and draws two hand axes. A voice squeeks from inside the church, and a flare of energy is visible from one of the windows and a ball of energy flies from a window blasting into Carver 4 points. Cameron hears a voice of sweet reason taunting him, will save vs DC 13. A pair of voices is heard arguing inside the church. One of the two at the corner casts a spell H3.

Bliss says, "OW! You jerk! I told you I was just casting on myself!" He ducks down to get some cover (fall prone as free action).
He pauses to evaluate whether he got his spell off or not.
If he did not, then his next step is to cast his Reduce Person (ley check from last turn = OK)
If he did, then his next step is to take out his scroll of Cat's Grace and read it.

Thanks for the clarification, Ezra!
Concentration check to cast a spell as taking 9 damage: 1d20+3 = 19! Made it! Woot!
Untrained Acrobatics check vs DC7 to stay on the roof after falling prone: 1d20+5 = 8 made it! Woot!
That was the round that triggered the readied attack, right? So NOW Bliss gets out his scroll of Cat's Grace and Reads it.
Does Bliss have cover up there, anyway?
If he wanted to climb down the INSIDE of the tower (into the building), what would the DC be?

DM Ezra: Bliss has cover from those inside the church, and depending on which side of the peak of the roof he dropped prone on, he probably has cover from the two at the corner of the church, he would also have some cover from where the guy at the front of the church was. Climbing through the wrecked steeple, climb DC of 10. That gets you through the steeple, you will then be 20' from the ground. The underside of the roof is large beams. Jumping to the ground would be an acrobatics DC 15 to only take 1d6 damage instead of 2d6 for failing the check. Any damage sustained results in landing prone. Please note that when you change to tiny size you may use dex instead of str for your climb checks.

Ooc _ I thought that it appears at the end of this round and acts accordingly? that's how we've done it with other games? path finder is a bit different on this one issue vs dnd as I know its come up before. if you look at this games archives you will see how is different.
DM Ezra: I'm sorry about that confusion, I do follow the spell description that lists it as a full round cast.
So my post for this round is done, summoning a creature and staying in cover behind the headstone...

Cameron spins around to his friends in the Fist and says" NO, guys my friend is in there, stop fighting them! This is all a mistake!" He waves his arms and tries to make his fistmates understand what a mistake this is.

OOC: fog or no fog, a 2 fails anyway. I just needed to know if the fog was still there or not, as if it was still there, Nikolai would not be able to see the two at the back and I didn't want to assume the PC knew their location just because I see them on the map.

Bliss (Cayzle) (AC23 +cover? +prone, HP7 of 16) Thursday March 13th, 2014 2:12:49 PM
Recap: So far (in the ?surprise? round) Bliss cast his spell, and then the enemy attacked. Then the first full round, in which he dropped prone, pulled out a scroll, and read it. That gives him his AC23+cover noted above.
In the round after that, he plans to drink his potion of special curing, for 1d8+5. But I do not think we are there yet.
In the round after THAT, he intends to pull out his elixer of hiding and drink it.
And in the round after THAT, he intends to climb down sneaky like inside the steeple tower and see what's the what.
Just sayin'!

ooc: Ezra, thanks for covering for me! ..............
Tinker rolls his eyes as things go to Chaos in a Handbasket. His ears are so finely attuned, the dwarf can hear a whisper 100 feet away. With Cameron only 35 feet away, Tinker easily hears some squeaky fellow tell Cameron that the people attacking the Fist are friends... and Cameron is believing them!
"A spell is on him, just another attack!", declares Tinker to the others. Still, what Cameron says makes sense, and Tinker is willing to try to give the church people one more chance to be reasonable. He moves up to give some cover to Prudence, and raises his crossbow to put H4 in his sights. If that guy tries another spell or advances on the Fist, Tinker is going to distract him with 12 inches of wood in a (hopefully) soft place!

Carver's charge strikes true. The tip of the lance easily punches through the man's armor, into his chest, and ticks out several inches behind him. His weapon falls from his hand as he grabs onto the lance. His wordless cries are unheard from the massive internal damage. He looks at Carver with an expression why? as his knees buckle and he soundlessly drops to the ground and falls onto his back, his motionless eyes staring into the sky.
Bliss, prone on the roof of the church, casts a second spell on himself. He also considers his future actions.
William's eagle appears half way between William and Rufford on the roof (Short range spell, you are 80' from target, spell range is 30'. Eagle can fly 80' and can thus move and attack). Rufford sees the eagle and swings with a hand axe, neatly slicing the eagle in half (attack of opportunity hit AC 15 for 9).
Cameron tries to talk explain to the Fist that it is all a terrible mistake, the voice from inside urges him to do what he can to stop the fighting.
Linden pauses to ask Cameron about his friends in the church.
Tinker does indeed hear the talking between someone in the church and Cameron I think it would have required a spellcraft when the spell was cast to know this is magic. Tinker moves forward and finds a clear line of sight to the man at the corner of the church. H4 is invisible, that was his last known location.
There was no "surprise" round. Bliss casting a spell was enough to set off the itchy trigger finger. The weapon had been described as ready and pointed at Bliss. At the same time, Cameron crossed "the line in the sand." This is the recap for round 2, starting #3.
You kilt Grewb! Pantheon will have yer soul! screams H2 as he steps forward and attacks Carver. His rapier easily pierces through a chink in Carver's mail (6 piercing). While his other hand sweeps low at Carver's leg with a dagger, just missing Carver's hamstrings.
Rufford advances on Bliss, a pair of hand axes held out in his hands, best to keep yer hands still and mouth closed. You don't need another hole in yer hide.
Prudence feels something cold and sharp pressing against her neck, a voice whispers in her ear. Leave the lance on the ground, best place for it. I told you folk we'd end any trouble you started. From the corner of her eye, she sees nothing to either side of her.

Pru remains where she is, her hand poised above the longspear. [For clarification, did she get off the Mage Armor spell?]
"But if I leave the spear," she says in her girliest voice, "Sergeant Helmbane will yell at me. You don't know what he's like."

He takes out his healing potion.
OOC: To clarify, is Bliss perched on top of the steeple, above H1, or on the same level as him? If he steps forward, will Bliss be in his reach? Is H1 the same as "Rufford"? Can Bliss roll off the steeple and fall down into the church?

OOC Map is in the header, where it has been for the whole encounter.
I need a clarification. The person that I don't know (yet because he is invisible) is holding a dagger to Pru's throat is not the one that charmed me, correct? This matters because I like the person that charmed me ONLY and will try to carry out their will so long as they or their allies don't threaten me. I might end up expanding that to not really liking folks that threaten my actual friends. It isn't a huge leap. In fact it is what the whisperer is almost asking me to do, stop the fighting. If the charmer isn't the person with the knife, I might be able to do something about it when they appear, without violating the spell. I might even get a new save, maybe with a bonus. IC " See guys, Pru gets it, we can all get along. Now if we stop attacking the people in the church, I wish I could remember my friend's name, they will stop attacking us and we can all talk this out. And don't worry about the Sergeant Pru. We can get the spear later. And who are you talking to?" Perception 9 (face palm, I doubt that hears the whisper to Pru, even this close) Cameron walks back to Prudence (x/22) encouraged by her compliance with the no fighting request.
Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) d4+1=3 ; d20+5=14 ; d6+2=8 ; Friday March 14th, 2014 6:47:53 PM
Linden suggests defensive actions. (There is only one map, linked in my title, I update as I go, if I miss a move, let me know and I will fix it.)
And Nikolai charges into the fray, unfortunately his tackle falls short.
Prudence responds to the request for her to remain unarmed. (Yes, you managed to cast the mage armor spell, I had you as having picked up the spear.)
Bliss tries to reason with Rufford (H1). The steeple was originally a spire that extended 15' above the top of the church. About four feet above the peak of the roof, the steeple has partially collapsed and is leaning to one side (north). Bliss had landed on the exposed edge (south). When he "fell prone" he landed on the roof next to the steeple. Bliss will need to stand, climb up onto the steeple, then he can drop/climb down into the steeple. The interior of the steeple used to hold a bell, now missing, and is otherwise an empty shaft into the church. There are some jagged pieces of wood sticking into the shaft from the collapsing steeple.
Cameron continues to cajole the Fist about his long lost friends (the spell lasts for hours). The spellcaster was inside the church. The DC to hear a whisper is 15, with a +2 modifier for distance. By what justification would Cameron have for walking back to Prudence if he didn't hear the whisper?
Another ball of energy flies from within the church to slam into Carver's chest (3 pts).
Rufford's eyes flick between Bliss and his companions below, trying to see how they fare. Best you just lay there. Tell your friends to surrender, we don't want to hurt you, but we can't let you interfere with our mission. He continues to stand ready over Bliss.
As Cameron approaches Prudence, the voice whispers in her ear, Best be telling yer friend to back off. I really don't wish to shed blood all over such a fetching outfit. Prudence feels a hand circle her left wrist from behind her, the hold is loose, she could break free easily, though she still feels the kiss of cold steel on her throat.
With someone new coming at him, H2 shifts and tries to hit Nikolai, stabbing at him with his rapier (8 pts).
And Tinker isn't sure where to aim.

posting from my phome will get a post in later tonight, but how could he cut my eagle in half. he doesn't have a long reach weapon so could you explain how he could hit him. He did not leave a threatened area either.

ooc: Tinker doesn't know there is a spell cast, but anything that makes Cameron talk completely opposite of what he was saying just a moment ago makes Tinker believe that Cameron has been taken by a spell. ..................
Tinker shakes his head and looks again, the man he thought was at the church door is not there, and the dwarf can't hear any sounds nearby to give him a clue over the shouting happening on the other end of the cemetery. As long as Tinker is holding his ground, no one can come at Prudence or Cameron (or so he thinks), and that leaves him free to cover either the guy on the roof somewhere near Bliss or the guy inside the church lobbing spells at Carver.
A quick assessment tells Tinker that it is highly unlikely that he'll be able to pin down the magician from where the rogue is at, but if he moves, he'll expose the light-headed Cameron and Prudence. "No good choices, and standing here picking my nose has never been an option for me, neither", he mumbles to himself as he takes aim at the guy on the roof.
"Back off from the Halfling, High Pockets!", he shouts while aiming his crossbow at H1. "You let him get down and I don't puncture your lung. Deal?"
Tinker again targets a foe but doesn't shoot, waiting on an aggressive move from the opponent before letting fly.
....................
Perception : 9 Move Action: none Standard Action: READY vs H1 if he tries to attack Bliss. AC 7
Unhappy about the mysterious disappearance of his eagle, William curses and looks around the battlefield... He sees Prudence act oddly (perc 23) and wonders if there could be something more amiss here... "Why isn't she fighting?" he wonders... He stays crouched under cover and decides to let loose with an acid arrow... However, he decides something tricky and aims behind Prudence, trying to hit something that might be behind her...
Acid Dart (not sure mod if its truly invisible, but I had a perc 23 vs. whatever he has...) Hits RANGED TOUCH AC 23 for 2 pts... ______________ THIS ROUND 1. If he sees his acid dart hits, he yells out to everyone that someone or something is hiding behind Pru, and he'll fire off another at it... Hits TOUCH AC 11 for 7 acid 2. If he doesn't see it hit, he'll shift targets and aim at H2 with his XBow - Hit AC 21 for 5
(Just wanted to note that this may change if Eddie is actually alive... Waiting on DM's response)
DM Ezra: What was odd? Just as Linden is not attacking and also dropped his weapon, nor is Cameron attacking, Bliss isn't attacking either and also dropped his weapon, what was 'odd' about Prudence dropping her weapon? You successfully targeted the square with Prudence's four globes of light in it. Roll miss chance 50%, and did you subtract 4 from your roll for firing into melee?

OOC: I did mention that Linden retreated to cover a post or two back. He still looks in the open. Additionally, /please indicate attacks more clearly, in bold would be nice. Defense and damage syphoning is kind of Linden's thing. I also forgot the map was posted in the header. Apologies.
IC: From his cover, he disregards casting Bless because he hadn't realized, probably due to fog, that his party had split. Fist's shouldn't do that, why did we? He keeps Bliss in view because he seems to be under assault. (He'll use a Sacrificial Bond if Bliss is hit.) He remains silent and unmoving. He retrieves the party scroll of detect evil and casts it (created at min CL). His first view is at the church then at the steeple.
It helps if you give me a distance moved. I don't like guessing intentions. How far is Linden backing up? Detect evil is a 60' range, from where Linden is currently, it is 75' to H1 and 70' to Bliss. Which also presents an issue for the 30' range of sacrificial bond.

OOC Cameron's justification for returning to Prudence was she was the only one of his team mates that seemed to be complying with the stand down plan. If the two of them stood together, nonthreatening, and started to try and get the rest of the Fist to stop fighting they might have a chance to do so. He asks Prudence who she is talking to because she doesn't normally go all girly girl with the Fist. Aside from her being female she is "one of the guys". She eats, sleeps, fights and when needed, bleeds, right alongside the rest of the Fist, never asking to be acknowledged as anything other than a member of the team. Her sudden shift in demeanor is as telling that something is up as Cameron's about face on shoot first and ask questions later was to Tinker. Is that a good enough set of reasons to move toward her? I think so. If your decision is that it isn't he can just as easily walk 20' toward the church to get reacquainted with his old friend. Let me know which you feel is better and I'll post from there.
DM Ezra: Didn't say you couldn't just asked to verify it was in character and not meta. Thogh Pru isn't the only Fist member to lay down arms.

Dm Ezra - anything yet on my question re the eagle?
DM Ezra: Interesting, that post is missing. I originally had the eagle as tiny, which would require entering the same square to engage, and thus proc'ing an AoO. This morning (3/17) I went back and realized the eagle is small, not tiny. Therefore, going back and reviewing the incident, the eagle would have struck once (having moved it could not preform a full attack action) for 4 points of damage. The eagle would have then been hit as an attack by Rufford as his normal attack, instead of just threatening Bliss. The eagle is still dead. Please note that Rufford's generally passive actions regarding the Fist would be different, having taken damage.

OOC Um Bliss was quite publicly damaged several days ago in the DM post. Its in his header and was taken as soon as it was dealt. Bliss shouted about it when it happened. Short of mailing you a candygram it couldn't have been more public. Sorry to put it this way Jay, but read the board man. IC Cameron stops in his tracks and looks closer at Pru. Perception 11 (ye gads I hate this roller ) She is in an awkward position, more so that she normally was with her gear in the field. Cameron didn't normally pay too much attention to Pru because, well, she was pretty and scary at the same time. She always acted as if she just wanted the rest of the Fist to accept her as one of them rather than being different because she was pretty or a girl. Cameron could understand that having grown up amongst dwarves his whole life. Shaking his head to try and clear the confusion he turns toward the church and starts shouting. " Is iy one of your friends holding a knife to my friend Pru's throat? I thought you wanted us to stop fighting and talk about this. Instead you send invisible people out to capture us? You are seriously straining our friendship. I am starting to think you are using our friendship to take advantage of my friends and hurt them. Just like I don't want my friends to hurt you, I don't want your friends to hurt mine. Make that person back down right now and let Prudence go or so help me I will put a shaft through his invisible eye. If he doesn't back away from her we can't keep being friends and I can't do as you ask and help this end peacefully. " Cameron prays he is staring at where the invisible attacker really is as he puts away his shield and draws his bow. Prudence's life may depend on it. Bluff 16
DM Ezra: Charm Person only allows a save if Cameron is threatened or attacked by the caster or the caster's allies. Since it is Pru that is threatened, this would not be a cause for a new save throw. While the caster inside the church has convinced Cameron that they are long time friends, this does not necessarily carry to the caster's allies.

OOC: Frankly David, I'm referring to this combat and future combats. If Bliss was damaged DAYS ago, he should be at full health due to the healing done by Linden to everyone before sleep the previous night. Then again, you are likely referring to real time. In which case, I'm human and miss things reading sometimes. Several of us are frustrated, tension is a little high, so please, let's not make things worse. I was requesting that we make things easier for the cleric. :) That's all.
May I point out, also, if Mr Invis is high enough level to kill her in a single stroke without Pru being prone (a coup de grace) then we're hosed, cus he is wearing a PrC that we shouldn't be tangling with. In game mechanics terms, it is unlikely she will die, especially now that Linden knows there is someone on her.

Carver uses a swift action to lay on hands on himself for 6 hit points. "Nik, that caster inside has gotta be stopped, can you handle this guy after this attack?" Carver being already 5' range from the guy with the rapier, moves west 15 feet, turns around and charges him. (centaur charge feat) Carver ends up in exactly the same location he started from, it's good to be a Centaur sometimes.

OOC: Just rereading posts and several posts have said Linden dropped his weapon. On March 11th, I posted he put it away. That before the Fist was asked to put down arms. Being a pacifist, Linden is still a Fist, and wouldn't go unarmed unless ordered by superiors.

AC 19 w/shield, TAC 11, FFAC 15, (CMD 13,CMB 2), HPS 24/24 Linden (Jay B) Monday March 17th, 2014 4:09:04 PM
OOC: Linden would know what way Pru is facing. He is close enough to see the three Fist standing there. IF Mr Invis is behind her, it is obvious, unless you don't know yourself. Perhaps you don't want to say, which is fine too. Additionally, Linden's morningstar would be tethered, harnessed or frogged to a belt or saddlebag... didn't it give too much thought initially. I'll post in the evening after these have been settled. I already know what my post will consist of.
Prudence Gundle [AC 18; HP 21/21] [Mage Armor](Kathy) Monday March 17th, 2014 6:53:34 PM
"He's got one hand on my left wrist," Pru remarks conversationally. "And he's holding a knife to my throat. That accounts for his hands, assuming he only has two of them. He's somewhere behind me; I'm not sure where."
If possible, Pru would like to ready an action to Withdraw (using the Withdraw action) if Invisible Guy attacks anybody, including her.
Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) d20=8 ; d20=4 ; d20=9 ; d20=19 ; d20=14 ; d20=9 ; d6+2=5 ; d6+2=5 ; d20=11 ; d20=13 ; d20=4 ; d6+3=9 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 7:13:44 PM Fix to previous action: William's summoned eagle inflicted 4 points of damage from clawing Rufford once before the eagle was split in two.
William the Courageous sees Linden, Prudence and Cameron not fighting. He determines that Prudence must have an invisible attacker behind her and lobs an acid arrow in her direction.
Fortunately he misses Prudence, but successfully splatters acid across the cobblestones behind her. miss chance for concealment not rolled, last round.
He shifts and aims his crossbow at H2 (I'm assuming you are firing, as you didn't state you were readying an action, but did roll a to-hit). Firing into the tussle between Carver, Nikolai and H2, his shot goes wide (firing into melee is a -4 to hit penalty). Fortunately he also missed his companions.
Linden casts detect evil from a scroll and scans the battlefield. He is unable to detect any evil within his limited range, which unfortunately, does not include any of the group the Fist has attacked.
Nikolai tries once more to grapple the duel-wielding individual in front of him. Shifting between H2 and William, Nikolai puts his back to a crossbow aimed in his direction. It was likely the passing of the bolt between his head and H2's that slowed him just enough to loose his grip. (grapple just missed)
Prudence alerts the Fist that she is not just standing there hoping to avoid a fight as Linden and Cameron, but that she is under duress.
Cameron doesn't see anythign odd about Prudence, but he asks his long lost friend about the situation.
Carver suggests that Nikoai take care of the caster and spins to charge H2. Carver doesn't realize that it was Nikolai that he was aiming at, but since Nikolai moved aside, he is able to complete his charge at H2. His charge is just successful, causing grievous harm to the man.
Bliss reminds his companions that he is wounded and pulls a potion.
A crossbow bolt ricochets off a headstone next to William, it looks to have come from inside the church.
A dart flies out the window towards Nikolai, and misses.
Prudence hears the invisible man chanting the unmistakable words of a spell. Tinker hears a voice whispering in his head. They've turned on you! Kill them! Quickly! NOW!Will save DC 15, fail and you have an uncontrollable urge to kill your nearest ally, moving/charging to attack in necessary. She can hear the voice coming from her left.
You bastard's won't get the book! H2 yells as he strikes at Carver, driving his rapier deep into Carver's chest. His dagger swipe at Nikolai fails to connect. Hit and confirmed critical against Carver for 10 piercing. He then shifts a few feet into the graveyard.
Rufford has had enough and knocks the potion from Bliss' hand before he can drink the potion, followed up with two additional swings with his handaxes. Hit CMD of 12 for disarm. Bliss has no weapons, and may attempt an unarmed AoO, which would proc another AoO from Rufford. The two swings with the handaxes result in one hit against Bliss (you have a -4 for prone), resulting in another 9 damage.
The voice from inside suggests to Cameron that he should surrender before more blood is shed on this holy ground.

Monday post, headed to work. I'll put in something meaningful later tomorrow.
Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) d100=10 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 7:27:52 PM
The potion Bliss was about to drink rolls off the roof and plops into a soft spot of earth, cradling the vial. Bliss himself was already prone so he doesn't 'fall' unconscious, nor does he roll off the roof.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC23, HP-2 of 16) d20-1=9 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 7:43:43 PM
Bliss shouts as the potion is knocked from his hand. "You jerk! That's my potion! I need that!"
He shouts again as he gets axed. "YOU JERK! That's my liver! I need that too ..." His voice trails off as he loses consciouness.
Bliss is at -2, and unconscious. His DC 10 check to stabilize is at +1 for his con 12 and -2 because that's his current hp total. He rolls a 9 and stabilizes at -2.
Carver AC 17, AC 19/ shield, CMB 6, CMD 16, HP 18/25 (10) (John C) Monday March 17th, 2014 7:45:22 PM "They've got the Book, Bliss is down, Just KILL THEM ALL, you know the motto, Do unto them before they do unto US!" Carver yells out to the rest of the team.
(Rest of post coming later)
Prudence Gundle [AC 18; HP 21/21] [Mage Armor](Kathy) d20+6=26 ; d20+5=23 ; d6+2=6 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 7:59:28 PM
Pru knows what spell is being cast [Spellcraft 26], but by the time she realizes it, the spell has been cast and she cannot stop it.
She steps away from her invisible opponent [5-foot step to Y-22] and picks up her longspear. She readies an action to shoot an Elemental Bolt at any opponent that becomes visible within her range (30 feet).
If the readied action goes off, she hits Touch AC 23 for 6 damage.
Nikolai (JonathanT) AC 20 Tch 20 Ffted 17 HP 15/23 CMD 18/20(Grapple) d20+2=13 ; d20+2=20 ; d6+2=5 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 10:18:58 PM
Nikolai can't miss noticing the near miss of the bolt and tries to keep H2 between himself and the bolt shooter. Move to H21.
The monk, who was trying to put the guy down without injury, now is really peeved. The avoidance of a bolt, a dart, and a dagger is just one too many indications they never meant to be friendly.
Carver's successful attack leads Nikolai to hope that the man is near his end and attempts to give the guy two swift punches where it hurts. That would be just about anywhere.
Flurry of Blows: Att 1 d20+2 = 13 Att 2 d20+2 = 20, dmg 5
His first punch misses but his second connects hard doing 5pts damage.

Tinker hears a voice whisper nonsense in his head and ignores it. He also sees Rufford move to attack Bliss and sends a bolt at the man on the roof, missing as usual and only staring in horror as Bliss is cut down. That tears it.
The dwarf goes into motion, hustling towards the church door and dropping his crossbow. At the same time, he pulls his Urgosh, ready to close with and cleave the spell caster hiding inside the church. .......

AC 19 w/shield, TAC 11, FFAC 15, (CMD 13,CMB 2), HPS 24/24 Linden (Jay B) d20+2=19 ; Monday March 17th, 2014 11:59:56 PM OOC: Considering that the DC 15 Will save was so vaguely stated, not listing clearly who has to save, I'll assume Linden is in the clear. And as questions aren't being answered that players have asked, I'll move on.
IC Not noticing Bliss is in trouble due to range (at this distance he couldn't help anyway), Linden will maintain the detect evil. However, he takes a 5ft step away from the group of three Fist, which opens up just enough room to charge his friends. His shield ready to slam Pru, on the 'Y' column side. (Hitting AC 19, which means my AID ANOTHER domain power succeeds, GIVING PRU +4 TO HER AC THIS ROUND... this doesn't do damage to Pru but he might hit what or who is in Y)
"Go, NOW. Run." He looks right at Pru with concerned eyes.
DM Ezra: What questions? And the spell was for Tinker, who saved.

OOC Since nothing I have posted since the charm person went off has made it past my post I give up. Play Cameron for the rest of the encounter Ezra. Nothing I have him do has happened yet so posting is a waste of my time. IC Cameron surrenders to the caster inside the church.
William d20+4=20 ; d6+1=7 ; Tuesday March 18th, 2014 8:51:22 AM
WIlliam ducks as the bolt nearly takes his head off.... Staying low, he moves through the graveyard to M22, crouching behind yet another headstone... He aims at either H2 (if alive) or H6, and fires another acid dart...
Hit Touch AC 20 for 7 acid
Carver AC 17, AC 19/ shield, CMB 6, CMD 16, HP 14/25 (10) (John C) d6=1 ; d6=6 ; d20+7=22 ; 2d8+6=21 ; Tuesday March 18th, 2014 10:51:12 AM
Carver again lays hands on himself as a swift action. (healed 6 points after reroll of a 1)
"Someone slap Cameron up side the head and get him back on track, we need him doing what he does. Cameron, if you ain't gonna help us by fighting, go heal Bliss, I expect the kid is dieing again!" Carver yells out to the group as a whole.
(the following is either or, depending on actions already taken)
He also moves to E,F/16,17, and if H2 does not drop from Nik's attack, he will once again charge H2.
Attack 22, Damage 21
If H2 has dropped from Nik's attack on him, he'll continue on with his movement towards the rear door ending at E,F/13,14.
Prudence Gundle [AC 18; HP 21/21] [Mage Armor](Kathy) Tuesday March 18th, 2014 10:14:22 PM
Well, since I have to make a post anyway, I guess I'll bring this up.
DM Ezra: The first bolt came from your side.
No. No, it did not. The first shots were fired in the DM post of March 11, and they came from our opponents. I have read the archives, and we didn't shoot anybody. Trash-talk, yes; threaten, yes; shoot, no.
do ezra: sorry, was talking about the first bolt of the round, not the encounter

Tinker puffs as he hustles to the church doors, wondering if he will be able to do more than die with his team, but unwilling to perish and become undead without a fight!

AC 19 w/shield, TAC 11, FFAC 15, (CMD 13,CMB 2), HPS 24/24 Linden (Jay B) Wednesday March 19th, 2014 1:54:05 AM
OOC: Sigh, checking in.
Decrepit Old Church (DM Ezra) d20=20 ; d20=20 ; d20=16 ; d4=1 ; d4=2 ; d4=4 ; d6=4 ; d20=1 ; d20=20 ; d20=19 ; d4=1 ; d4=1 ; d4=1 ; d20=16 ; d8=6 ; Wednesday March 19th, 2014 3:08:44 AM I do apologize, there seems to be some confusion. Last round William fired a crossbow bolt at H2, and missed. Standing next to H2 are Carver and Nikolai. From the church a dart and another bolt were fired, one bolt at William, one dart at Nikolai, both missing. H2 also missed a dagger swing on Nikolai. Nikolai comments about the avoidance of a bolt, dart, and dagger. That bolt came from William.
I hope that clears up where the bolt fired first in the round, at Nikolai, came from.
Next, we have the determination of who initiated hostilities. In a tense situation, casting a spell would be deemed much as drawing a sword, raising a mace over ones head, firing a shot off the bows, or a preemptive strike. Rufford responded to what he perceived as a preemptive attack by spell (he doesn't have spellcraft and wasn't interested in waiting to find out what kind of spell was being cast).
Cameron is under the effects of a mind altering enchantment, Charm Person. This spell provides some specific guidelines for the conduct and actions while under the spell. The first round Cameron asks his companions to stop fighting, some ignore him and attack anyway, killing one of the opponents. His next two rounds he continues to ask the Fist to stand down. He is ignored for the most part. Cameron fails a perception check but for some reason decides that Pru, behind him, must be under duress and walks back to her. Now that he is standing before her, he again fails a perception check to notice anything unusual (an 11) He yells out to the unknown caster in the church about the caster's associates. The response is that he should surrender before more blood is shed. Cameron draws his bow, while standing in front of Prudence, who has stated a knife is held to her throat. Cameron decides that the gods are at fault that his companions are not listening to him.
I can understand that being under a compulsion can be a challenge. I try to operate on a "reasonable person" basis. Would a reasonable person expect such action or inaction? Quite frankly, if the terrorist is holding a gun to someone's head, you don't walk up to them and pull your own gun, unless you want a dead hostage.
On to the recap and next round...
Bliss is bleeding out on the roof. Seeing that Bliss is no longer moving, Rufford drops his axes, picks up his own crossbow, and starts reloading. Yer friends shouldn't attacked us.
Carver suggests killing them all.
Prudence takes the opportunity to slip from the blade held to her throat and quickly arms herself.
Nikolai attacks H2, no longer interested in nonlethal means, and strikes H2, who crumbles over a headstone, his blood trickling down the stone, tracing some of the letters carved into the stone.
Tinker is able to disregard the spell cast at him, and moves towards the church. Standing in the door of the church, he discovers not one person, but three.
Lindentakes a step away, then charges which he can't do without the feat. He hopes to shield Pru and suggests that Pru run.
Cameron agonizes over his companions continued aggression's and surrenders.
William moves from S28 to M22, a distance of 45'. I don't see a means for William to double move and cast a spell.
Carver heals himself and moves behind the church. I don't recall stating there was a back door, (there isn't) and this is the first anyone has been there to see the back side. How are you rerolling the lay on hands? I don't see a house rule on rerolling a cure effect.
Linden feels a sharp pain in his hind quarters as a blade neatly slices into the tendons of his leg. critical hit and confirmed for 3 damage. Standing behind Linden is the man that had challenged the Fist previously, his body appearing as he swings and strikes at Linden. His image is some what blurred, with several images of him shifting around.
Prudence whirls and lets loose with an elemental bolt. The bolt flies under Linden and neatly strikes, an illusion. Surrender! Ye seem to be a smart lass, prove it!
Inside the church, a young man shrieks, much like a girl, and lets loose with a bolt of arcane energy, striking Tinker in the chest and singing his beard for 2 damage.
The only female calmly turns and points her crossbow at Tinker, you should have talked with your tongue rather than your blade. She smiles as she pulls the trigger sending a bolt deep into Tinker's leg for 6 damage.
The nearest man steps forward and attacks Tinker. Fortunately for Tinker, the rapier slashes into the door post. Unfortunately, the dagger sinks deep into his shoulder for 4 damage.
Tinker has sustained 12 damage. Carver has sustained a total of 6+3+10=19-6-6=7 damage, using 2 of his 3 lay on hands. Bliss is at -3 and not stable.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC23, HP-3 of 16) d20-2=17 ; Wednesday March 19th, 2014 6:00:00 AM
Bliss stirs in his unconsciousness and tries to rally ... Con check is d20+1-3 to hit DC10 or higher ... a 17! Bliss is stable at -3, woot!
OOC: Thanks for the clarifications, Ezra! Also, Wold House Rules say "Any ones rolled during any type of positive energy healing are re-rolled until something other than a one is obtained."
DM Ezra: Thanks, I went looking for it last night.

OOC From the Woldopedia, House Rules SPELLS AND MAGIC ITEMS
Only spells that are listed in the Pathfinder Core Rulebook or on the website as Original Woldian Spells are available for use in Woldian games. Some spells in the Advanced Players Guide may be used if the PTB permit individual characters to do so.
Any ones rolled during any type of positive energy healing are re-rolled until something other than a one is obtained.
In general, any item that may be created using the Pathfinder rules is available for purchase or creation on the Catacombs Board.
Magic Items may be renamed, but the original name must appear in parenthesis on the character sheet. (Example: Fez of Charisma (Headband of Charisma) )
I promised the group I wouldn't argue.

AC 19 w/shield, TAC 11, FFAC 15, (CMD 13,CMB 2), HPS 21/24 Linden (Jay B) d20-5=2 ; d20-5=0 ; Wednesday March 19th, 2014 7:12:34 AM
OOC: You can perform a shield attack, without the feat, but as a result you lose your shield bonus to AC. As for the charge and 5ft step, I believe you are right. However, if I had thought about it, Linden is fast and could have made the attack in his normal movement. As a result of this, did Linden get his Aid Another effect to work, because truthfully, it could have gone off without the charge. The charge was mainly used for dramatics and flavor.
IC: Taking a dagger to the rump isn't a great thing, especially for the moron attacking a horse. In reaction to the knifing to the butt, Linden mule kicks at the man. (Hooves attack, miss both) "Back off Sparky!"
DM Ezra: I must be blind, I can't find where you have spells memorized noted on your character sheet. I assumed that you were doing something fluffy, and took it that way, though if you really want to attack Pru with a shield bash, roll damage. I'm not sure what you were trying to aid Pru with. She withdrew and then readied an attack.
William Wednesday March 19th, 2014 9:26:20 AM
Ooc - Ezra , sorry about being of on the map movement. Not easy to read a map on my phone. Turn coming later
DM Ezra: No worries. If you really want to get off an action, add that you will stop at the limit of your move for the action, I'll then post where you got to along the way.

The effect on the caster, with multiple decoys, looks tantalizingly familiar to Pru, but she can't quite remember what it does. [Knowledge Arcana 21, which is 1 short of identifying a Mirror Image! Darn it!]
Pru moves cautiously around Linden [to AA-24] and fires another Elemental Ray, hoping that eventually she can hit her target. [Hit Touch AC 10 for 3 damage. Note that if the spell is Mirror Image, a "near miss" (within 5) can destroy one of the images.]

Carver lays on hands again, this time for 4 hit points. (1 use lay on hands remaining.
