I poked him

[PlatGreenThunda]

Let us all take a moment, as Is has passed away.

[PlatGreenThunda]

So you guys can plan ahead.

After this encounter everyone gets 32500 to spend, this puts everyone back on the correct WBL. Everyone advances to level 13 as well.

As a Divine Is Bonus, granted by Is via his death. The party gets a bonus 2k each.Bonus was selected by Shao

Robe must pay 1k to regain Qarr.

[PlatGreenThunda]

Also can we get a Eulogy for Is Kyle?

[nightwolf145]

I am curious about something...

nightwolf145 carried out 100 launched of one D20 :

18 , 16 , 10 , 5 , 15 , 8 , 11 , 16 , 14 , 15 , 14 , 4 , 12 , 8 , 11 , 14 , 14 , 13 , 6 , 13 , 6 , 5 , 19 , 3 , 14 , 6 , 10 , 1 , 8 , 20 , 19 , 8 , 11 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 12 , 2 , 12 , 15 , 20 , 3 , 6 , 5 , 7 , 1 , 1 , 5 , 1 , 8 , 12 , 2 , 20 , 5 , 19 , 6 , 16 , 12 , 5 , 17 , 2 , 13 , 4 , 12 , 17 , 17 , 10 , 19 , 13 , 16 , 10 , 14 , 12 , 20 , 14 , 6 , 12 , 19 , 5 , 18 , 16 , 4 , 12 , 12 , 12 , 15 , 6 , 11 , 7 , 4 , 12 , 4 , 7 , 3 , 9 , 14 , 4 , 20 , 4 , 7

I'll do a bit of stats analysis on these, give me a bit.

[nightwolf145]

Okay, so with that sample of a hundred rolls,

Mean is 10.51
Median is 11.5
Was too lazy to count every number to find mode
Sample Standard Deviation is 5.4337

In other words, the dice roller is pretty fair, with a huge deviation. So bad rolls are simply bad luck.

[Caligstro Smith]

Yeah... I don't remember what Is has done... I can't keep straight what he did vs what Van Kelsh did, vs what that warblade guy did...

Kyle, you missed my post where Hiro said not to attack anymore. It should appear soon after the post where I told Spunky to attack Hiro.

[PlatGreenThunda]

Okay, so with that sample of a hundred rolls,

Mean is 10.51
Median is 11.5
Was too lazy to count every number to find mode
Sample Standard Deviation is 5.4337

In other words, the dice roller is pretty fair, with a huge deviation. So bad rolls are simply bad luck.

The Deviation actually makes sense because Die Rolls are supposed to be the same for every number (rather than normal). If you we're to take 10 of each number 1-20 )10 1's, 10 2's, etc. So what a dice SHOULD roll), the standard deviation is 5.780751286...

So this die roller is actually matching up pretty well, a probably larger sample should match even better.

WHERE IS IS' (wtf, is Is'?!?!) EULOGY

[PlatGreenThunda]

Yeah... I don't remember what Is has done... I can't keep straight what he did vs what Van Kelsh did, vs what that warblade guy did...

List of acheivements of Is. (In chronological order since we started AU)

1) Beat up a commoner
2) Got arrested
3) Escaped Prison to get arrested with the group
4) Relaxed while the group fought a vampire
5) Joined the group outside the city walls to defend Gurrah
6) Fought the Crystal Gryphons in the pillars above acid fight, Umklet climbed on the walls so he stayed safe.
7) Was untrusting of Y'nul
Fought and navigated the lava maze successfully
9) This

TBH, you have more to work with than what we had with Qarr.

[Philliam]

So did Mirror Image not have any effect on the attack redirection, or did he just successfully roll to him the actual me. Just trying to get a handle on how exactly these rules are working.

[Caligstro Smith]

HAHAHA I LOVE IT. Mr. Scruffy, the giant brain tentacle monster!

[PlatGreenThunda]

So did Mirror Image not have any effect on the attack redirection, or did he just successfully roll to him the actual me. Just trying to get a handle on how exactly these rules are working.

The whiteness disappeared when he swung at the demon.

And both times it reappeared to hit you.

Whether that was random coincidence or because of the rules of the encounter is up to you to decide.

If you guys want, after the encounter, I will post how this dreamscape works.

[Grape]

Can we get an updated map?

[PlatGreenThunda]

I would... but I'm on the busy side.

[Caligstro Smith]

Mostly it's just there's stuff that's dead that wasn't before right? And spunky moved to the square on the left of hiro.

[PlatGreenThunda]

And a Tiefling moved.

KYLE EULOGY NOW OR I KILL SPUNKY ON DEMONS NEXT TURN.

[Caligstro Smith]

CURSES UMKELT, YOU MADE ME HAVE TO LOOK UP THE RULES FOR ATTACKING INTO A GRAPPLE, AND THE RULES FOR MULTIPLE GRAPPLES ON ONE TARGET!

:p

[PlatGreenThunda]

Importantish Questions

1) AU has always been basically "lets do interesting boss fights/encounters", however it obviously now has a plot going on. After the bird room fight would you guys like me to rapid summarize plot as we have done before? Otherwise it may take a while to get much done.

2) I wanted the final AU boss fight to end at lvl 15. But we're only lvl 12 and will be 13 after this fight. Would you guys rather me instabump everyone to lvl 15 after one more encounter, or play 2 more encounters after this one. (basically after this fight, not counting the BBEG, do you want to fight 1, 2, or 0 encounters?)

3) Is this current fight too hard?

[Caligstro Smith]

I think this current fight is just right. It's dangerous w/o being too awful. The sorrowsorn is a perfect challenge for this group.

I'm good with whatever with the leveling/how many encounters follow. Remember though we still have the stuff in the desert temple with Prince Altero of Kheld and Gherrick (assuming Tim's still up for doing that -- he's been pretty silent so far, but I recognize that he's not in the current encounter so maybe that's why).

IIRC I already rolled initiative for the Kobold Room fight, though I'm not sure if Tim did?

I'm good for a bit of plot recap to keep things focused and fresh. Although I'm not in any rush for us to wrap things up (not looking to drag it out either, but I think you get my meaning).

[PlatGreenThunda]

Hey guys. If you want to know previous encounter details (or this ones after we're finished with it) you can check them out here.

I don't like the idea of the " Devil Army of One."

[PlatGreenThunda]

It's ok, I got the next encounter planned and it's none of those currently.

Its far worse MWAHAHAHAHA!
