Madison Malum: Binder 6 | Rogue 1/Warlock 5. AC15, hp 65/65, Init +4 (+2 Dex, +2 Pact Augmentation)

"Is that everyone?" Madison asks. If any of the undead are still fighting she throws an eldritch bolt at it and then moves to attack.

Show Buer

BUER, GRANDMOTHER HUNTRESS

Vestige Level: 4th

Binding DC: 20

Special Requirement: Yes

Buer grants binders superior healing as well as powers against poisons and diseases.

Legend: Buer tells many different stories about how she came to be a vestige, so her true origins remain obscure. In various popular versions of the tales, she is a beautiful elf maiden who fell to evil satyrs, a virtuous human ranger killed by a chimera, or a green hag slain by a lammasu. It's likely that Buer herself cannot remember who she was in life or what brought her to her current state, and the stories she tells are cobbled together from the shreds of her memory that remain. Regardless of what her true form once was, most binders believe that she possessed great skill as a hunter and healer in life.

Special Requirement: Buer requires that her seal be drawn outdoors.

Manifestation: Buer's form is that of a five-branched star, or wheel, composed of satyr legs. She has two faces, one positioned on each side of her wheel-shaped body at the center point where the five legs meet. One face is that of a green hag, and the other is a raging, leonine visage with an unruly mane and beard. Buer constantly moves within her seal, rolling from foot to foot as she traverses its circumference. She always keeps her raging face outward, but she speaks from her green hag face in a friendly manner with a gentle voice. When her body rolls in such a way that her hag face cannot see her summoner, Buer grows frustrated and begins yelling curses at her body.

Sign: Your feet turn into satyr's hooves, giving you a curious tip-toeing gait. These hooves prevent you from wearing normal boots or shoes, but magic footwear reshapes to fit you.

Influence: Under Buer's influence, you are plagued by momentary memory lapses. For an instant, you might forget even a piece of information as familiar as the name of a friend or family member. Furthermore, since Buer abhors the needless death of living creatures other than animals and vermin, the first melee attack you make against such a foe must be for nonlethal damage. In addition, Buer requires that you not make any coup de grace attacks.

Granted Abilities: Buer grants you healing powers, the ability to ignore toxins and ailments, and skills that help you navigate the natural world.

Buer's Knowledge: You gain a +4 bonus on Heal, Knowledge (nature), and Survival checks, and you can make Knowledge (nature) checks as if you were trained, even if you have no ranks in that skill.

Buer's Purity: You have immunity to disease and poison, and making a pact with Buer removes any existing disease and neutralizes any poison that afflicts you.

Delay Diseases and Poisons: Each ally within 30 feet of you gains temporary immunity to poison and disease. Allies within the area make saving throws against disease and poison effects normally, but they do not incur the effects of failure as long as they stay within 30 feet of you. An ally that leaves the area immediately suffers all the effects for any missed saves.

Fast Healing: You gain the fast healing 1, and the rate of healing increases with your effective binder level. You gain fast healing 2 at 10th level, fast healing 3 at 13th level, fast healing 4 at 16th level, and fast healing 5 at 19th level.

Healing Gift: As a standard action, you can cure 1 point of damage to yourself or another creature. As a full round action, you can cure 1d8 points of damage +1 point per effective binder level (maximum 1d8+10 points). Either version requires that you touch the creature to be cured. If you use the full round cure ability, you cannot use your healing gift again for 5 rounds. The other version is usable at will. Both uses of the ability channel positive energy and deal a corresponding amount of damage to undead.

Track: You can track foes as though you possessed the Track feat.

+5 hit points
+2 insight bonus on initiative checks

paladinred · May 4

Ithrinnwen - 16 - Hits the ogre once as does her companion

Ogre 1 - 12 - Beats on Felicity

Ogre 2 - 12 - Beats on Ithrinnwen

Ogre 3 - 12 - Beats on James

Felicity - 10 - Uses Pelors gift and by his good grace the 2 ogres before her turn to ash

James - 2 - Commands the last ogre, then Madison blasts it.

I think that is combat over, if the attack on the last ogre invokes a response then we can deal with it.

Ogre hp 48/55

Trex 188/255

I cannot believe how tough big animals can be as zombies.

((So, what all does James now command for undead? Is it 1 Megaraptor and 1 Ogre, just the Megaraptor, or is the T-rex also included? I just want to know so I know what all I need to track. If you have stats for them as well, that would be amazing!))

paladinred · Sunday at 09:21 AM

You have both, the ogre is out the MM and I had to build the trex from the MM using the template.

James

"Well now! We don't have to worry about a watch any more! We have our own personal guards that don't even require sleep. We even have a mount for those that are not bothered by it's current state of being. As for the rest, I'll leave it you folks. If it is alright with everyone else, I'm going back inside and resting after taking care of these two."

James goes up to his newly acquired subordinates and heals them up with the same fell energy he uses. He briefly gives them the command to guard them before heading inside to go back to sleep.

Cast: Charnel Touch on the zombies until fully healed.

Ogre: 55/55

T-rex: 255/255

Ithrinnwen

Ithrinnwen shivers in revulsion as James uses magic to control the undead. Sure, better on their side than not, but neither she nor Tha'ali are particularly pleased at having them around. They are a crime against nature, after all, and while the dark-haired elf may not be particularly dedicated to hunting them down, that doesn't mean she approves. Not that she suspects the troll-kin cares about her opinion on the matter.

Switching to Elven, she instructs her hound to keep an eye out for them. Just in case the magical control slips or the necromancer that made these undead abominations manages to find them and/or wrest control of them again. The Cooshee dutifully takes up a sentry position once more; near the doorway.

Current Condition

Ithrinnwen: 59/75 HP; Tha'ali: 66/66 HP

Elf Favored Enemy (Ex): An elf ranger’s favored enemy ability grants him a +2 bonus on Hide, Listen, Move Silently, Spot, and Survival checks used against creatures of the chosen type, and a +2 bonus on weapon damage rolls against such creatures. If the elf ranger chooses humanoid (orc), undead, or “servants of Lolth” as her favored enemy, these bonuses rise to +3. “Servants of Lolth” includes drow, monstrous spiders of all sizes, and driders; this is an addition to the normal list of options for a ranger’s favored enemy.

Elven Hound Companion (Ex): A 4th-level elf ranger can select an Elven HoundPage 189 of Races of the Wild. as her animal companion, even though the creature is a magical beast. For the purpose of any of the ranger’s spells that affect animals, as well as his use of Handle Animal or wild empathy on the companion, the elven hound is treated as an animal.

Hatred: Ithrinnwen suffers a -4 penalty to AC and on attack rolls/skill checks whenever she is not engaged in melee combat with a favored enemy and is close enough that she could engage it.

Foe Specialist: Ithrinnwen suffers a -1 penalty on attack rolls, Bluff, Sense Motive, Spot and Survival checks made against creatures of any kind that isn’t one of her favored enemies.

The night now passes uneventful and after resting and preying/reading for spells the party are ready once more to continue their journey.

"What do you think we'll face today?" Madison asks, considering binding Buer again or switching to a different vestige. Kas might be useful right now.
