Des presses his advantage as most of the strikes from the Rakshsa are absorbed by the Stoneskin. Under a series of precision strikes, the Rakshasa falls dead. Ramirez fires off several shots at the large Rakshasa, but does not land a strike Aura of Justince does not affect AC. Where is the +6 AC coming from? As Ramirez fires, the large Rakshasa strikes given the Attack of Opportunity. Ramirez[/b] Hit AC 32 Dmg 45 dependant on AC explanantion. Gaffer begins summoning assistance. Nira backs up and casts a Powerful Spell. The Rakshasa pauses, but only for a moment. Danko begins casting and the Large Rakshsa strikes him, given the Attack of Opportunity.

The Large Rakshasa closes within range of Nira. "Your power is great, my master can fullfill your wishes and teach you all of the secrets the Lady of Sorrows would hold from you. Join us. There is no need for this to end in destruction." The Rakshsa strikes again, but this time the blow is to a nerve cluster at the hip. Nira] Hit AC 38 Non Lethal Dmg 50 Fort Save DC 23 or be stunned

(OOC: I think the Aura of Justice provides an AC bonus against the object of the smite only. From SRD:
In addition, while smite evil is in effect, the paladin gains a deflection bonus equal to her Charisma modifier (if any) to her AC against attacks made by the target of the smite. If the paladin targets a creature that is not evil, the smite is wasted with no effect.)
With rakshasa e6 down, Desdichado turns to face the other raskshasa near him. "You're next."

OOC- the aura functions as smite, which also gives AC bonus against the opponent. I did add it incorrectly, Ramirez is getting +4 out of it not +6, it overlaps his deflection
Ramirez continues firing, hopefully he can at least distract it from the casters. He continues inspiring the team, it looks like they will need all the help they can get to hit this rakshasa.

Hmerrin continues his attack, but is unable to land a Strike Des draws a thin line of blood from his Rakshasa opponent Ramirez lets loose with another volley and hits once Nira declines the offer to join the bad guys and puts a Resilient Sphere around herself Gaffer completes his spell, but nothing appears. He then defensively casts Greater Dispel Magic Danko backs up, but is still very much within the reach of the Large flying Rakshasa and tries to cast Haste on Ramirez, and the entire party.

Seeing his summon fail Gaffer suppresses the urge to hit his own head, cursing his poor memory [OOC: and Courtney his own].
Will Save: Natural 1 His movements slow as the spell takes hold of him. Only to be outdone by a second wave of magic from Ramirez.
With few options left to him that don't require the roof to vanish or involve setting his allies on fire, or squashing everyone into the walls. Gaffer steps into the open space beside the large rakshasa to provide a new target as a small jolt of lightning jumps from his raised finger, but once more the raksahsa's resistence prevents any effect.

Des cuts into the Rakshasa another three times. Blood flows everywhere and the thing still does not fall. Hmerrin keeps swinging Gaffer casts Wall of Stone, creating a 5' wide 20' high section to provide cover for Ramirez and Danko Ramirez thanks the druid and cast a healing spell upon himself Nira dismisses her resilient sphere Danko moves up behind Ramirez and casts Stoneskin upon him

Des catches Greenleaf with several massive blows, the power of Domi flowing through the holy warrior and sending the Rakshasa to the ground. Ramirez puts 3 shafts deep into his chest and this time Greenleaf does not strike out as he does so Danko sends a barrage of Magic Missiles through the failing Spell Resistance Nira heals Ramirez, just in case Hmerrin steps in and buries his axes with a fountain of blood as the result
The Rakshasa somehow still fights himself to a sitting position. Mortal wounds pouring out his lifeblood about him. "A temporary set back for me, but with this failure." He sways and lands hard against the wall. "He will not let Golden Eyes stand and your future is ash." He slumps from the wall and lies unmoving, quite dead

He uses some healing energy to help tend to any wounds. (Channel Energy: 27)

Nira has some Cure Moderate Wound spells handy. Not many, but they'll have to do. She doesn't want to be caught completely out of spells so has to be a little selective.
She wipes the sweat from her brow, and sees blood mixed in with it. She took a few good hits that time.

He feels better but no where near 100 percent.

He listens to the others, and answers through closed eyes.
"Pretty sure if Golden Eyes was around here, we'd be pureed by now. I'm for healing up and taking a look in the center room, and then calling it a day.
Do remember that stupid glyph or whatever on the door we just came in is probably gonna be just as mean when we leave, so need to be prepped for that. Good bet this next door is trapped too."

Everyone don't forget to heal 27 from Channel Energy.
Warehouse Karri Combat Over - DM Dan K Monday August 8th, 2022 5:57:40 PM
several bouts of healing are sent forth into various members of The Tide. Many more wounded than they can recall and at least one, only inches from death himself. The Rakshsa's last words trouble some and confuse others. Golden Eyes, the bane of the CMTC and up to now, the head of the Rakshasa threat, may actually not be the leader. But one thing is clear, The Rakshsa portraying himself as Greenleaf, who held his own against the entire group, is almost certainly not as powerful as Golden Eyes. The Rakshasa operate through the concept of Power is position. Danko takes a few moments and liberates the valuables: Gaffer checks the door again, but still hears no commotion
Jewelry: 4 Gemstone rings (500 each), 4 bejeweled broaches (2,500 each), 4 Choker collars (1,500 each) 4 Kukri knives +3 4 Headbands of Alluring Charisma +2 Diamond rind 5,000 Emerald and sapphire pendant (8,000) ruby and gold bracelet (2,500) Belt of Giant Str +6 Cloak of Minor Displacement Bracers Armor +4 Headbands of Alluring Charisma +4
The inner door is examined and found not to be trapped but it is very much locked. The door itself appears to be made of bone, or rather a multitude of bone that has been masterfully fused together to seem as if it were a single piece. Lines of silver, lead and mithril can be seen not only traced through the door, but also through the surrounding wood and stone. To Nira, the entire place crawls with very potent abjurational magic. It will require some sort of command word, or possibly a Knock, but she is quite confident physical force nor dimensional magic will get inside.

She turns her attention to the door and matter at hand.
"If we leave now we give the raks a chance to bring in more reinforcements. The room looks fairly small. If someone wants to pop the door open I can stand back with a Wall of Stone spell ready. Anything in there we don't like the look of, I'll block the doorway and we can leave"

Ramirez nods in agreement. His cloak shifts color, turning bright red in anticipation.

The group braces themselves with a plan and moves forward. Danko has the Knock and Nira has a Wall of Stone at the ready. "One...Two...Three"
The Knock spell is cast and all the Shadow realm does not break loose or pour forth
What does greet you is a room that redefines lavish. Silk curtains and wall hangings, burning incense, gilded furnishings and elegant marble and crystal mosaics. Behind one set of curtains is a Crystal Ball. An exquisitely crafted bookshelf holds works on toruture and other horrible dark and perverse material. A mural of bones and preserved body parts adorns a wall. One of the tables is decorated in loose sapphires and rubies, too numerous to count. A silver bucket is full of diamond dust to allow cigars to be extinguished. A small fire steams water and upon a rack above sits a set of black opals. A large amoire of cherry holds a magnificent set of dinnerware for up to 50 people and the lower shelves hold ledgers and logs
The small room, now clearly larger inside than it was on the outside is a massive treasure trove of information and actual treasure. The center of all within the entire Emerald Kingdom
Also level up PC's congratulations

That sure is a bunch of shiny stuff. She plans on burning that mural to ashes before the group leaves though.
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 127/144 AC: 34(T:16/FF:) CMD:29) Wednesday August 10th, 2022 12:58:19 PM
Gaffer scans the room, not exactly sure what he expected but knowing it wasn't a bucket of diamond dust.

"I know what I'm about to say won't be popular - but I say we don't touch any of that rakshasa-cursed treasure. Unless it's to bury it in the ground or throw it into the sea."
Desidchado recoils at the gruesome mural and foul books. He looks through the documents to see if there's any intelligence about the rakshasa's plans, movements, or organization that might be gained. (Perception: 33)
"Nira, maybe we could say a blessing to the gods over these remains before we cremate them."
Hmerrin (MikeK)(HP 152/178 AC:32 T:18 FF:27 CMD:35) Wednesday August 10th, 2022 3:45:50 PM
"Maybe in a bit, Nira," Hmerrin replies, gazing open mouthed at all the stuff. "Let's do prop that door and cover that crystal ball like Gaffer said."
The fighter does just that with the door, wedging a crowbar in place to keep it open.
"I think we just checked off another rakshasa cell. Let's cash in with the gems and all, and see if there's any leads on more cells. As for the rest," the man gives the bone mural a troubled look, "fire seems like a really good idea to me."
Hmerrin does wait for some magical all clear before scooping up loot or opening doors.

Keeping in mind that Danko is also a gentelman thief, he rubs his hands together thinking about the loot in the room.
Hearing Des' suggestion he places both hands on his hip...
" Hummmm, no.... Leave your share if we wish but I'm taking mine, "
Danko checks the room for traps before taking mental inventory of what's in the room.
------------ Perception for traps 23 and 20 ( if a second check is needed)
Ramirez (BrianZ) AC30/19/23 HP78/122 CMD32 Wednesday August 10th, 2022 8:30:52 PM
Ramirez nods in agreement as the crystal ball is covered. I'm sure they already know who was here, but no need to give them any extra info.
Also, I think we should hold off on destroying the evidence until we report this rakshasa cell to the authorities? As for the loot, better we take and use it to finish them off than allow them to get it back and use it to hurt more people. I know how you feel Des, but we won't be keeping anything evil, and the rest will be put to good use

The group is a bit uncomfortable in the extra dimensional space that is obviously the main living quarters of the Rakshasa formerly known as Greenleaf.
Hmerrin is able to wedge the door open and Danko sweeps the room, finding no traps
As Gaffer moves to cover the Crystal Ball an exchange takes place. Within its surface, Gaffer spies A sun lit room on early morning rays, ornately furnished and to his shock, the scent of rose and lavender can be detected through the devise. A great window can be seen, the sun Felt through which Gaffer spies a beautiful river and just beyond an island with a magnificent cathedral. Local Knowledge DC 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {It can only be the Cathedral of Light in Plateau City!} Gaffer describes what he sees out loud and then the ball goes black, a large hand, sapphire in color, sweeps across and the druid is staggered by a magical blast which even from across the room, the rest of the Tide feel like a thunderclap.
The all clear on the treasure is given.
Hmerrin (MikeK)(HP 152/178 AC:32 T:18 FF:27 CMD:35) d20+8=20 ; d20+14=18 ; Thursday August 11th, 2022 3:59:12 PM
[Know Local 20] "Plateau City," Hmerrin responds to Gaffer's description. "Terrific. Another city to .. oof!" The young man cuts off as the force blast hits him.
He takes a couple beats to see if anyone is hurt, or anything is jumping out at them, and then relaxes a bit.
"Dez, I hear you about this stuff. Definitely agree on torching, burying, or otherwise destroying the, uh, art. But, we've further ticked off Golden Eyes, and are gonna fight her sooner or later. And, it took all the magic we had for me to even touch Greenleaf. We're gonna need to upgrade. Which means cash. Which means these gems, diamonds, and gold need to see the Catacombs."
Hmerrin joins in on the general inventory, while also trying to eyeball any intel on the rakshasa. [Perception 18]
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP:122/161; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 32] Thursday August 11th, 2022 5:03:34 PM
"Ouch," Desdichado cries out from the blast.
"They're in Plateau City? I guess that's not a surprise, but it's been too long since I had a check-in with the priests who sent me and Sarge to Dirt City."
"I say we make our way there - I can let stop by and let them know just how bad things are."
Danko Pureheart (Yves) -- AC 26 ( mage armor 30, 31 haste, 35 with Shield ) -- CMD 36 -- HP 64./110 Thursday August 11th, 2022 5:52:37 PM
" Let's get to it ... "
And Danko starts gathering the loot.
Ramirez (BrianZ) AC30/19/23 HP78/122 CMD32 Thursday August 11th, 2022 7:40:13 PM Well that was unexpected. I guess they didn't like the two way connection. I wonder if this crystal ball is attuned to that location?

Nira offers the use of her haversack to help carry the loot. She tucks the shrunken stuffed unicorn aside to make some room.
She's still not entirely sure what she's going to do with it.
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 127/144 AC: 34(T:16/FF:) CMD:29) Friday August 12th, 2022 5:34:14 AM
Gaffer does his best to memorise exactly what he saw, particularly the position of the sun and path of the river, to help find the location again later.
"A blue hand..." Gaffer ponders for a moment before shrugging his shoulders. "Doesn't mean much to me but might be worth bearing in mind."
With the others gathering the loot, Gaffer takes out his map and starts judging the distance and paths between their location and Plateau City.
Closing Shop Friday August 12th, 2022 1:56:19 PM
Desdichado and Danko look to start off immediately to Plateau City, but Hmerrin calls for caution: it took all the magic they had to even touch Greenleaf and they're gonna need an upgrade.
Nira and Desdichado want to destroy the foul 'art' and accoutrement, and the paladin isn't even comfortable with the regular treasure. Ramierez wants to keep it to show the local authorities, but gets out-voted: it is destruction, and the sooner the better. Desdichado is also out-voted on sealing up everything: first, magic detection determines most of it is not cursed or evil, and second is Hmerrin's point.
It takes the rest of the day to sort the good treasure and cleanse the inter-planar space from the foulness of Greenleaf and his ilk. Yet finally, finally, the heroes are able to emerge and once again breath the relatively fresh air of the Wold! With them is enough money to prepare for the fight to come, the one where they hope at last to trap Golden Eyes (and Blue Hand?) and end it plans once and for all!
But our heroes have been away from Dirt City for quite some time…
....................
Desdichado, Danko, Gaffer, Hmerrin, Nira, and Ramierez are now 16th level. Please update PC Sheets for DM review NLT 19 Aug 22
The treasure trove is enough for The Tide to have a total wealth of 315,000gp each. Please update PC Sheets to reflect a WBL of 315,000gp
Hmerrin (MikeK)(HP 152/178 AC:32 T:18 FF:27 CMD:35) Friday August 12th, 2022 2:54:40 PM

Hmerrin breathes in the outside air. "Much better," he remarks, as he strides out of the warehouse.
"I'm feeling like we might wanna check in on the hq. It's been what, two years Wold time since we've been there? Be nice if it was still standing."
