Cyntheria nodded at Razvan, "Up!"

Mud, intending to bring up the rear, tottered over to the paperwork to look for anything critically alarming - or left in a rush.

Chapter 1:01. The Dawning	Ardis, Ardeal, Ustalev

---

You clamber up, as stealthily as you can. The most obvious feature of the rooftop that you emerge on to is a huge statue of some sort of winged demon. A young boy, pale and wide eyed with fear lies bound at its feet. His neck and the front of his shirt are caked in blood, both fresh and dried. rain drips down from the cloudy darkness above but fails to wash him clean.

Demitrius joins you, looking around for signs of his master. He isn't disappointed. A creature stands against the edge of the statue, obviously exhausted and weakened. Days of magical excursions seems to have taken its toll on the vampire.

It looks up, "You may have dulled our connection, boy, but I can still sense you. I ordered you to stay away from here. Why have you disturbed me?"

Demitrius draws his rapier, "I've come to kill you and free myself. Prepare to die!"

Krott sees an opportunity to let Demetrius demonstrate what state his master is in, and whether a direct fight is worthwhile. For now, he focuses on the group's objective: the boy.

He sees the caked blood and grimaces; if the rain isn't washing it away, it must run rather deep. The alchemist attempts to ascertain the condition of the boy, beyond 'traumatized.'

OOC & Actions

As mentioned in OOC discussion, I don't know if we've entered combat yet or not, as we haven't been called to roll initiative. As such, I'm hoping to get in at least a quick Medicine check to see if I can determine the boy's condition, even if it's a long-shot.

Maybe some sense of guilt triggered in Razvan -- it seemed clear that his momentary doubts regarding Demetrius had been misplaced. Or maybe a sudden hatred flared for this thing whose nature he himself now shared. Or, simply the long building tension snapped. Regardless, Razvan suddenly acted.

He darted to the NW, across the corner of the large statue and made an effort at an attack to draw the Master's attention away from threatening Danior.

 

OOC

As Demetrius was able to draw his rapier, I assume Razvan can grab a dagger (along with his short sword already in-hand) before Initiative.

His target square is D5 - assuming the Master hasn't moved.

His goal: circle behind The Master to set up a flanking attack by his allies who might have weapons capable of harming the Vampire (are Cyntheria's unarmed attacks 'magical' and/or is Demetrius' rapier magical)? So D7 for whomever can best strike the Master.

This also would provide Razvan with an AoO against the Master if he then moves or takes a move action (unless he Steps).

AAR:

Not sure about that first attack tbh, but since neither is likely a critical, I didn't bother to roll any doubling (or second roll) damage. So it would look like either 12 or 4 damage before any resistances are applied.

Oh, if it matters, both the short sword and the dagger are S/P versatile: I think I'd go with P (piercing) based on a vague sense that "going for the heart or the jugular" might be more effective here compared to slashing.

 

ACTIONS

1. Stride => F7 (5) => E6 (15 or 20) => D5 (20 or 25). If E6 is normal terrain, it would cost 10 as a second diagonal; if difficult terrain, it would cost 10+5 = 15). In either case, I think Razvan can make it to D5. Whether moving out of E6 triggers an AoO ... ??

2 & 3. Double Slice (dagger is agile: no penalty so both attacks at full Attack Bonus (no MAP); damage, if both hit, combine before any resistance applies. Maybe wishful thinking.

Fetchling (Liminal) Features: Fetchling

• Shadowtongue Link
• Darkvision Link
• Liminal Heritage Link You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to locate undetected creatures within 60 feet when using the Seek action. Your flat check to target concealed creatures is DC 3 instead of DC 5, and your flat check to target undetected creatures is DC 9 instead of DC 11.

Vampire Features: Vampire Dedication

• Fangs Unarmed Attack
• Revulsion to garlic or holy symbol of a Good Deity
• Weakness to Sunlight slowed 1 =>
• Drink Blood Action 
• Basic Undead Benefits (below)

Basic Undead Benefits : Link

• Necril: You know the Necril language.
• Undead Vision: You gain low-light vision, or you gain darkvision if your ancestry already has low-light vision.
• Negative Healing: You are damaged by positive damage and aren't healed by positive healing effects. You don't take negative damage and are healed by negative effects that heal undead.
• Negative Survival: Unlike normal undead, you aren't destroyed when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Instead, powerful negative energy attempts to keep you from being destroyed even in dire straits. You are knocked out and begin dying when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Because you're undead, many methods of bringing someone back from dying, such as stabilize, don't benefit you. When you would die, you're destroyed rather than dead, just like other undead.
• Immunity to Death Effects: You're immune to death effects. This keeps you from being automatically killed or from having your dying value automatically increase, but it doesn't make you immune to other parts of the spell or effect. For example, you can still take mental damage and become frightened by a phantasmal killer, you just don't instantly die from it.
• Disease and Poison Protection: You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to saving throws (or any other defense) against disease and poison.

Appearance

As a Vampiric (undead) Fetchling:

Height: 6'1" (186 cm)

Weight: 151# (68.5 kg)

Eyes: pupilless, a blue grey color that is brightest in the center and darkens gradually towards the edges, but now have a sort of seething incandescent quality as lighter, brighter spots continually rise to the surface and dim.

Fangs (brawling, grapple). Nails hard and sharp, but with no game mechanical feature.

Hair: color unchanged, but now has a sense of weak luminescence about it.

Complexion: pale marble-like white. Lips have a shade similar to eyes except after blood feeding, when a more purple luster is observed.

Shadow: as a vampire, none; nor does Razvan cast a reflection in a mirror.

Eye Slash Tattoo: You can see four times farther than normal. If you have darkvision, you can see blood in color. 

 

Sal, terrified of the vampire, throws a spell.. disrupt undead at it. She stays on the stairs hoping that since only her upper half is visible she'll be deemed less of a target.

OOC: So that's either 0 damage, 5 damage, 10 damage or 10 damage and enfeebled for 1 rnd.

The vampire stumbles just as Sal's cantrip strikes him. He looks up angrily, easily shrugging off the magic, "You dare!"

The boy is alive but weakened and unable to help himself. Demetrius darts forward, ignoring the child and stabbing with his rapier. His first blow stabs the vampire through the heart but even so grievous a wound barely slows him.

Vial in hand thanks to the group's forward planning, he swigs the tonic from it and finds his hide toughened against attacks.

He shuffles his way through the gathered party and toward the weakened child.

"Your father's worried about you, child. We're here to get you home. Let's get you out of harm's way first... please, this way." He gestures to the boy to move behind the group, near the exit. He towers over the boy, looking down with his sullen gaze.

OOC & Actions

I assume the child, despite being weakened and presumably mistreated by the master vampire, may not trust us. Krott is also very big. As such, I'm thinking that I'll need to try a Diplomacy check to convince the boy to come with us willingly; Krott, however, is terrible at Diplomacy. 😅

Action 1: Drink Numbing Tonic (minor)
Action 2: Stride to G6.
Action 3: Diplomacy to make a request? **edit** I guess not! D:

The boy seems too weak and stunned to respond to Krot who, despite his kindly intent, is more intimidating than comforting. He has clearly been treated badly and is unable to move of his own volition. If you want to you could simple pick him up and carry him away.

The vampire, you haven't yet learned a name to put to him, hisses in rage both at the wounds he has received and at Krot's proximity to the child, "No, he is mine. He will be the next generation of vampire without our weaknesses. I must complete my experiment."

He swipes first at Demetrius, his claws cutting a gash across his chest, before stepping back and seemingly standing stick still for a moment, a look on concentration on his face. As he does so his injuries begin to sew themselves closed.

Drawback: You take a –1 penalty to AC and a –2 penalty to Reflex saves.

Krott sees that there is no time to play games or beat around the bush. He focuses on his metabolism, recalling the earlier mutagen into his system.

'The boy's already scared of me, it isn't going to get better or worse,' he thinks to himself.

He then grabs the boy, likely earning the vampire's enmity, and moves to carry him to relative safety.

OOC & Actions

Round 2

Free Action: Mutagenic Flashback - You experience a brief resurgence of a mutagen. Choose one mutagen you’ve consumed since your last daily preparations (Bestial Mutagen - Lesser). You gain the effects of that mutagen for 1 minute.
Action 1: Grapple to grab the boy. [edit] Of course it's a critical failure, and of course I used my hero point up... I'm guessing due to the boy's weakness he isn't going to grab me or make me fall prone, but he could.
Action 2: Stand up if needed, or Grapple attempt #2.
Action 3: Either Grapple attempt #2 if I needed to stand in Action 2, or Move with boy if grapple was successful, to the stairwell if possible. If grapple was unsuccessful, I'll instead try an Alchemy knowledge check to see if the boy's weakness is alchemical in nature.

ROUND #1:

Maybe some sense of guilt triggered in Razvan -- it seemed clear that his momentary doubts regarding Demetrius had been misplaced. Or maybe a sudden hatred flared for this thing whose nature he himself now shared. Or, simply the long building tension snapped. Regardless, Razvan suddenly acted.

TAKE THE BOY AND FLEE! he shouted. Razvan darted to the NW (see below), to make an effort at an attack to draw the Master's attention away from threatening Danior. He'd seen Demetrius' prowess with the blade: Razvan's best hope was to help him put that rapier to good use. They had no 'sovereign specific' against a full-fledged vampire - not even holy water.

He might yet find his redemption this very night.

 

OOC

This is Razvan's "actual" set of Actions based on the 4JAN post; initiative; and GM feedback on difficult terrain. We agreed to retain the ATK/DMG rolls as follows:

• short sword ATK = 21 DMG = 8 (guess I need to hope The Master is fatigued or something).
• dagger ATK = 27 DMG = 4

If both hit, Double Slice combines damage before resistance applies.

AAR:

Oh, if it matters, both the short sword and the dagger are S/P versatile: I think I'd go with P (piercing) based on a vague sense that "going for the heart or the jugular" might be more effective here compared to slashing.

 

ACTIONS

1. Stride => F7 (5) => E7 (10) => D6 (15) => C5 (25).

2 & 3. Double Slice (dagger is agile: no penalty so both attacks at full Attack Bonus (no MAP); damage, if both hit, combine before any resistance applies.

Basic Undead Benefits : Link

• Necril: You know the Necril language.
• Undead Vision: You gain low-light vision, or you gain darkvision if your ancestry already has low-light vision.
• Negative Healing: You are damaged by positive damage and aren't healed by positive healing effects. You don't take negative damage and are healed by negative effects that heal undead.
• Negative Survival: Unlike normal undead, you aren't destroyed when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Instead, powerful negative energy attempts to keep you from being destroyed even in dire straits. You are knocked out and begin dying when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Because you're undead, many methods of bringing someone back from dying, such as stabilize, don't benefit you. When you would die, you're destroyed rather than dead, just like other undead.
• Immunity to Death Effects: You're immune to death effects. This keeps you from being automatically killed or from having your dying value automatically increase, but it doesn't make you immune to other parts of the spell or effect. For example, you can still take mental damage and become frightened by a phantasmal killer, you just don't instantly die from it.
• Disease and Poison Protection: You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to saving throws (or any other defense) against disease and poison.

Appearance

As a Vampiric (undead) Fetchling:

Height: 6'1" (186 cm)

Weight: 151# (68.5 kg)

Eyes: pupilless, a blue grey color that is brightest in the center and darkens gradually towards the edges, but now have a sort of seething incandescent quality as lighter, brighter spots continually rise to the surface and dim.

Fangs (brawling, grapple). Nails hard and sharp, but with no game mechanical feature.

Hair: color unchanged, but now has a sense of weak luminescence about it.

Complexion: pale marble-like white. Lips have a shade similar to eyes except after blood feeding, when a more purple luster is observed.

Shadow: as a vampire, none; nor does Razvan cast a reflection in a mirror.

Either way, it gains the amphibious trait. .; Your eidolon gains a +20-foot status bonus to its Speed. .; Heightened (3rd) Add the following options to the list of effects you can choose:Your eidolon becomes Large, instead of its previous size. This increases your eidolon's reach to 10 feet but doesn't change any other statistics for your eidolon. Because of the special link you share, you can ride your eidolon without getting in each other's way. If another creature tries to ride your eidolon, both you and the riding creature each regain only 2 actions at the start of your turns each round, as normal. .; Your eidolon gains a climb Speed equal to its land Speed. .; Heightened (5th) Add the options from the 3rd-level version and the following options to the list of effects you can choose:Your eidolon becomes Huge, instead of its previous size. This has the same effects as the 3rd-level option to become Large, except your eidolon's reach increases to 15 feet. ; Your eidolon gains a fly Speed equal to its Speed.
Reinforce Eidolon Range 100 feet; Targets your eidolon Duration 1 round You focus deeply on the link between you and your eidolon and reinforce your eidolon's defenses. Your eidolon gains a +1 status bonus to AC and saving throws, plus resistance to all damage equal to half the spell's level. Your eidolon can benefit from either boost eidolon or reinforce eidolon, but not both; if you cast one of these spells during the other's duration, the newer spell replaces the older one.

Mud reached out with the strength of his mind and hurled a piece of debris at the vampire.

Cyntheria followed her doll's lead and screeched with rage as she flew herself forward to confront the vampire. She lashed out with her claws as she screamed into the vampire's face.

Chapter 1:01. The Dawning	Ardis, Ardeal, Ustalev

---

Krott scoops up the child who slips from his grasp. He is small and light and the mummy fails to appreciate how small he is and drops him only to scoop him up again and flee.

Razvan moves in and slices the vampire across the face. Even as the cuts are made they begin to close up again. Whether this distracts him or not is hard to tell as another bolt of disruptive energy strikes him.

The debris thrown by Mr Mud and Cyntheria's fist glance off him. Demetrius stabs him repeatedly, "I'll kill you!"

In response the vampire seems to do nothing for a moment and then retaliates by clawing the spawn and then retreating out of arm's reach.

From below the trap door, where Krott seeks to escape with the child, a scrabbling and a squeaking can be heard. Rats come at their master's mental urgings. That's not the only sound that can be heard above the sounds of battle. Bats are winging their way to the rooftop too. The vampire cackles, "My pets will chew on your flesh. You will not escape me."

"My pets will chew on your flesh. You will not escape me."

Razvan continues to press, though clearly their weaponry is only marginally effective against the true vampire master. Had they missed some clue to a means to attack effectively? But, surely, this crazed undead would not have yielded his captive victim through negotiation -- so what choice had they?

As the Master bolted away from him; Demetrius; and Cyntheria; his fighter's reflexes lashed out with a rapid stabbing motion (Reactive Strike or AoO) hoping to pierce the creature's neck. He felt and saw the tip score the undead flesh, but he feared it would be to little true effect. Yet, perhaps, the Master might realize that he could be hurt.

OOC: Move within block initiative (per Discord inquiry)

Demetrius! I'll try to go around him to set up your attack!

Razvan dashes off in pursuit. He knew that his own weaponry could, at most, be a distraction. He had to hope that Demetrius' and the Eidolon's weaponry could strike true -- and that their magicians might prove effective too.

Realizing that to do so, he had to make a choice -- he couldn't reach an opportune location without foregoing a second strike, he readily acted. Skirting ahead of the Master - and hopefully drawing his attention - he still had an instant to strike -- again aiming at the Master's throat (just for narrative drama).

OOC

Reactive Strike taken as the Master leaves square D5.

Not sure about that second attack at 21, but I rolled the damage in case that might hit an exhausted foe.

ACTIONS

Reaction: Reactive Strike/Attack of Opportunity +10 with short sword

1. Stride => D4(5') => E3(15') => F2(20') => G2(25')

2. Step => H3(5')

3. Strike (short sword) at +10

Fetchling (Liminal) Features: Fetchling

• Shadowtongue Link
• Darkvision Link
• Liminal Heritage Link You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to locate undetected creatures within 60 feet when using the Seek action. Your flat check to target concealed creatures is DC 3 instead of DC 5, and your flat check to target undetected creatures is DC 9 instead of DC 11.

Vampire Features: Vampire Dedication

• Fangs Unarmed Attack
• Revulsion to garlic or holy symbol of a Good Deity
• Weakness to Sunlight slowed 1 =>
• Drink Blood Action 
• Basic Undead Benefits (below)

Basic Undead Benefits : Link

• Necril: You know the Necril language.
• Undead Vision: You gain low-light vision, or you gain darkvision if your ancestry already has low-light vision.
• Negative Healing: You are damaged by positive damage and aren't healed by positive healing effects. You don't take negative damage and are healed by negative effects that heal undead.
• Negative Survival: Unlike normal undead, you aren't destroyed when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Instead, powerful negative energy attempts to keep you from being destroyed even in dire straits. You are knocked out and begin dying when reduced to 0 Hit Points. Because you're undead, many methods of bringing someone back from dying, such as stabilize, don't benefit you. When you would die, you're destroyed rather than dead, just like other undead.
• Immunity to Death Effects: You're immune to death effects. This keeps you from being automatically killed or from having your dying value automatically increase, but it doesn't make you immune to other parts of the spell or effect. For example, you can still take mental damage and become frightened by a phantasmal killer, you just don't instantly die from it.
• Disease and Poison Protection: You gain a +1 circumstance bonus to saving throws (or any other defense) against disease and poison.

Appearance

As a Vampiric (undead) Fetchling:

Height: 6'1" (186 cm)

Weight: 151# (68.5 kg)

Eyes: pupilless, a blue grey color that is brightest in the center and darkens gradually towards the edges, but now have a sort of seething incandescent quality as lighter, brighter spots continually rise to the surface and dim.

Fangs (brawling, grapple). Nails hard and sharp, but with no game mechanical feature.

Hair: color unchanged, but now has a sense of weak luminescence about it.

Complexion: pale marble-like white. Lips have a shade similar to eyes except after blood feeding, when a more purple luster is observed.

Shadow: as a vampire, none; nor does Razvan cast a reflection in a mirror.
