Carmen & Maddox fight their way through the city on LOFAS

<ProcyonA> Ok so lets just scrollfade to you guys entering the city now
<Maddox> cool
* Maddox walks through the 20' wide, open gate, and looks at the city looming ahead and above, watching for any sign of the monsters he saw previously
<ProcyonA> Maddox you said that you went into a cave, to an elevator, and through a gate
<Maddox> a literal gate, not a portal
<Maddox> yes.
<ProcyonA> yeah yeah literal gate
<Maddox> we're three minute's elevator descent underground.
<ProcyonA> You havent seen any monsters yet
<ProcyonA> Are the bears just in the buildings looking really sketch
<ProcyonA> i dont know what that was supposed to say
<Carmen_Chapman> Haha I was just going to ask
<ProcyonA> are the bears that were looking at you all mad in buildings or on the street?
<Maddox> In buildings.
<Maddox> They were all scared or mad, because I wasn't doing anything.
<Maddox> just trying my best to fight, then flee
<Maddox> all the ones outside were probably killed, idk
<ProcyonA> So boarded up inside?
<Maddox> there were >12 monsters in the vicininty
<Maddox> some boarded, some not
<Maddox> it wasn't specified.
<ProcyonA> You dont see any bears on the street, though there are a few imps rummaging through some trash
<Maddox> "That... doesn't look very good."
* Carmen_Chapman frowns
* Maddox nervously walks forward down the street into the city.
* Carmen_Chapman follows
<ProcyonA> The imps see you and bail, hissing and snarling as they dash down an alley
* Carmen_Chapman glares at them as they leave
<ProcyonA> The ruckus makes some shutters open
<ProcyonA> Bears look out of them, looking gaunt and angry.
* Maddox avoids making eye contact, continuing down the street.
<ProcyonA> roll a quick perception for me
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+5
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=1 ] | {6}
<Maddox> lol

<Maddox> Good. didn't want to see him anyway.
<ProcyonA> but youre not the one with the perception out the ass
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+3 perception w/ advantage
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+3 -->  | [ 1d20=17 ]{20}, [ 1d20=1 ]{4}

<ProcyonA> hot damn you guys roll like shit
<ProcyonA> at least you had advantage
<Maddox> just getting the critfails out of the way :P
<ProcyonA> Ok carmen you notice some scorch marks on the ground and walls starting at the next intersection
* Carmen_Chapman points at the interseXon up ahead
<Carmen_Chapman> "LooX like some shit went down up there"
<Carmen_Chapman> "See all the burnt shit everywhere?"
<Maddox> "I squint, but see it."
<Maddox> oh.
<Maddox> uh, that was supposed to not have quotes
<Maddox> "This could be bad."
<ProcyonA> relatable
* Maddox , taking any excuse to move on from the glaring bears, hurries up to the intersection.
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out her chainsaw, just in case
<ProcyonA> The next block with all the scorch marks has some really high buildings on eitehr side and is completely empty, imps and all
<ProcyonA> on the other side there are a few stores that appear to actually be in use
* Maddox reads the sign, if any
<ProcyonA> If there was a sign here, its gone.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whats the deal with those shops?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Kinda funny place to sell stuff"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I like it though!"
<ProcyonA> One of the bears calls from behind you from a window, "Looks like its D-Day!"
<Maddox> I turn around and look up at the bear
<ProcyonA> Hes popped back into the window
<ProcyonA> You cant make him out
<Maddox> "Why do I feel so uneasy about this whole thing?"
* Maddox looks back at the shops
<Maddox> "and these shops feel like those ones in stories that sell you cursed stuff and then are gone the next day."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Theyre still p cool shops!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Like"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Settin up in a burned building??? Its so hardcore!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Not all boring n mainstream like normal shops"
* Maddox laughs
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wanna go see what theyre sellin?"
<Maddox> "Sounds good."
<Carmen_Chapman> "U dont gotta buy anythin just lookin"
<Carmen_Chapman> "They might know whats up round here"
* Carmen_Chapman heads up to one of the nearby stores
<ProcyonA> You guys start walking down the street.
<ProcyonA> roll perception again
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+3 perception advantage
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+3 -->  | [ 1d20=3 ]{6}, [ 1d20=2 ]{5}

<Carmen_Chapman> ((wow))
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=14 ] | {19}
<ProcyonA> Carmen doesnt see shit.
<ProcyonA> Maddox youre checking out these weird ass shops and you swear you see them... shimmer a bit.
<ProcyonA> That is all.
<Maddox> I squint, and approach the shop's door, wondering what's going on.
<Maddox> "Did the shop just... shimmer?"
* Carmen_Chapman turns to Maddox as she nears the door
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whatchu talkin bout?"
<ProcyonA> Before you get there, you hear a yell.
<ProcyonA> From the windows, instead of bears, there are liches, 8 of them in 4 different buildings.
<ProcyonA> They all throw bolts of energy down at you, like prey in their web
<Maddox> "HOLY- ACRGH"
* Carmen_Chapman yells in surprise
<ProcyonA> To confirm, fireballs are vs AC right?
<Maddox> auto-hit
<ProcyonA> yikes
<Maddox> ((Fire N Fireballs, each dealing 1d4+1 damage. Fireballs ALWAYS break psionic resistance. ))

<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 3d4+3 --> [ 3d4=8 ] | {11}
<ProcyonA> Maddox you take 11
<ProcyonA> What do you do>
<Maddox> I would ask for a map, but that's a bit much.
<Carmen_Chapman> So the liches are in windows up above of nearby buildings?
<Maddox> So where are these Lihes, roughly?
<ProcyonA> I was going to make one but i cant do 3d stuff
<ProcyonA> You guys are roughly in the middle of the block, in the middle of the street
<ProcyonA> tehre are 4 apartment buildings around, each with 1-3 liches in them
<Maddox> "Run!"
* Carmen_Chapman runs into the closest apartment building for cover
* Maddox does the same
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d3
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d3 --> [ 1d3=2 ] | {2}
<ProcyonA> The door is barred
<ProcyonA> not barred
<ProcyonA> boarded up
* Carmen_Chapman chainsaws the door
<ProcyonA> the wood is old and brittle, though
<ProcyonA> You get through with ease, but in that time, you each take another bolt.
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4+1
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d4+1 --> [ 1d4=2 ] | {3}
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4+1
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d4+1 --> [ 1d4=3 ] | {4}
<ProcyonA> Carmen 3 more, maddox 4 more
* Carmen_Chapman pushes through the smoking remnants of the burnt and sawed door to get inside
<ProcyonA> You finally make it inside of the apartment.
<ProcyonA> outside scorch marks are accumulating as liches attempt to get you
* Maddox follows carmen in, taking note of room they're in.
* Carmen_Chapman sighs with relief for being inside
<Carmen_Chapman> "Up?"
<ProcyonA> Its a lobby, very unfurnished.
* Maddox flanks the door, pulling out both axes.
<Maddox> They glow more than usual, as Carmen is near
<ProcyonA> Theres nothing but a receptionist desk (old and crappy), an elevator, and two doors, one labeled office and the other labeled stairs.
<Maddox> The building is steel on the exterior?
<Maddox> or anything not wood? :P
<ProcyonA> Brick
* Carmen_Chapman puts on her Pearl tinted VR to look for where and how many liches are upstairs
<Maddox> cool
<ProcyonA> Its not gonna burn down
<ProcyonA> Liches, being undead, dont show up.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Fuck"
<Maddox> "What?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Can't see anything upstairs"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wanna take the stairs?"
<ProcyonA> There are sevearl other masses of warmth in the building, but through the brick you cant make out what they are... except for the giclops sleeping in the elevator shaft.
<Maddox> "Let's go for it."
<ProcyonA> One mass is on the second floor, the second is on the fifth
<Carmen_Chapman> "Elevators got some big creature or somethin in it"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno what they are but somethins a floor up n another a bunch higher up"
* Maddox nods, heading for the stairs.
* Carmen_Chapman follows
<Maddox> "To the Top! We need to be able to see just how bad the situation is."
<ProcyonA> You open the door to the stairs and dash inside.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wanna see whats on the second floor?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Dont wanna get trapped at the top n ambushed from behind"
<Maddox> "Good point."
<Maddox> "Clearing the building is probably a good idea."
* Carmen_Chapman grins
<Carmen_Chapman> "Guess my dads tests werent useless afterall"
* Maddox laughs
<Carmen_Chapman> "Lets go"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Gotta move quickly so theyve got less time to plan"
* Maddox gets to the second floor door
<Maddox> "I open, you look?"
* Carmen_Chapman tries to identify the heat blob
<ProcyonA> roll...
<ProcyonA> anyting you can justify to identify it
<Maddox> inb4 occult
<Carmen_Chapman> Perception would be to see what it is at least
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+3 perception
<NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+3 -->  | [ 1d20=6 ]{9}, [ 1d20=9 ]{12}
<ProcyonA> I'll allow it
<ProcyonA> You see a trio of ogres and a trio of basilisks in a different stairwell
<Carmen_Chapman> "3 ogres and 3 basilisks"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Basilisks look like theyre on different stairs or somethin"
<Maddox> "How are there so many now?!"
<Maddox> "We can take the ogres I'm pretty sure."
<ProcyonA> they're together btw
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ogresll be easy"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno bout those snake shits"
<Maddox> "Yeah."
<Maddox> "Do we have a choice though?"
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> "Got a point"
<Maddox> "Our other option is to go back to ground floor, run out of the city, and use the return portal."
<Carmen_Chapman> "U bust in then I'll flank them with ya?"
<Maddox> "Sounds like a plan."
* Maddox runs though the door, assessing the location of all six monsters.
<ProcyonA> They were all sitting on the stairs chilling
<ProcyonA> They now see you and run down the stairs at you.
<Maddox> Straight line?
<ProcyonA> No, the ogres are but the basilisks are on the walls, on the light fixtures, on the ogres, etc
<Maddox> on the ogres?
<ProcyonA> yep
<ProcyonA> standin on their little shoulders
<Maddox> That's a really funny image
<Maddox> So I run at the first ogre, and when I'm within 10 feet of the back one, I cast Pierce one, running through all 3 ogres and one basilisk, hitting each once.

<Maddox> "Maybe we can jump to the next building over?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Yeah those fuckin liches arent gonna show up on these things so think theyre all thats up from here"

<Carmen_Chapman> Where did Carmen see the liches at?
<ProcyonA> In other buildings
<ProcyonA> a few behind, a few ahead
<Carmen_Chapman> But not the building they hopped onto?
* Maddox looks out at the roof, looking how far out of the city they could make via rooftop
<ProcyonA> Not far, this apartment block is fairly self contained
<Maddox> "Back down this building?"
<Maddox> "I think it's our best chance of escape."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Hold up"
* Maddox stops moving
<Carmen_Chapman> "Got a look around the street from over there n saw where the liches are at"
* Carmen_Chapman tells MaddoX which buildings there are liches in
<Maddox> "Hm, we might try to escape by fire escape then."

<Carmen_Chapman> "We could hop over to the first lich building n try n take em out"
<Maddox> "Take them out one by one? That seems best."
<Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta get rid of em else the streets gonna keep being a shitshow"
<Maddox> "You're right."
<Carmen_Chapman> "N were not gonna have cover in buildings forever"
* Maddox looks back at the swaying building
<Maddox> "Yeah."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Hoppin on roofs safer than goin outside on the ground floor n we could maybe get the drop on em if theyre not Xpectin it from above"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Most of em were using good sniping spots from up high anyways"
<Maddox> "Yeah, hopefully all the brutes are down below then."
* Carmen_Chapman heads over to hop to the neXt building if the current one didn't have any liches in it
* Maddox moves that way as well, hopping onto the roof of the next building with liches inside
<ProcyonA> Ok thats about 2 over
* Carmen_Chapman pauses once there and looX down with her Pearl Tinted VR to scope out the situation inside the building
* Maddox looks for the roof entrance
<ProcyonA> This one is more empty. THere are a few signatures in the lobby but from so far down you cant see exacly what it is
<Carmen_Chapman> "LooX like some shit at the bottom but nothin much up higher"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Lets take these liches out!"
<Maddox> "Sounds good!"
* Maddox attempts to open the roof exit door
<ProcyonA> Its unlocked

<Maddox> "Yeah, seriously."
<Maddox> "Undead not having heat signatures"

<ProcyonA> As maddox approaches, the two bears cower more, and shrink into the corner of the bath as far back as they can
<TornSkippito> "Hey."
<ProcyonA> They dont respond
<TornSkippito> "...are you real bears?"
<ProcyonA> ((have there been not real bears?
<TornSkippito> ((You had several bears that were Liches in disguise.)
<TornSkippito> ((at the start of this combat, right?))
<ProcyonA> ((shit if i did i completely forgot about that))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((I don't think it was ever explicitly said they were bears in disguise))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((There were just a bunch of liches that came from nowhere when we thought there would be bears there))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((but given all the lich illusion stuff, asking if they're real isn't unreasonable))
<ProcyonA> ((fair))
<ProcyonA> They seem to be real as far as you can tell.
<TornSkippito> "...no, you're just being quiet and scared. How long has it been?"
<ProcyonA> after a pause, one says "A few days"
<TornSkippito> I nod sadly.
<TornSkippito> (( Carmen_Chapman , you got notes on whether we cleared this building already?))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((We're in the process of clearing this building))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((Based on what she scoped out from the roof, this building has liches in it somewhere, but we haven't found and killed them yet and they dont show up on her glasses because undead))
<TornSkippito> ((got it.))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((just kidding))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((we killed liches here))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((But we don't know if there are more))
* TornSkippito turns to Carmen
<TornSkippito> "I think we need to move to the next building."
<TornSkippito> "Keep moving."
<Carmen_Chapman> "We got all the fuckin liches I saw here from the roof"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Everythin I can see on these goggle things s dead Xept some shit in the lobby
<TornSkippito> "Yeah, let's not go that far down."
* TornSkippito tries to remember how close the next roof was
<ProcyonA> Close, enough to jump to
<ProcyonA> however if you goof it i will drop you off a building
<TornSkippito> is taking 10(+Mod) a thing?
<ProcyonA> yep
<ProcyonA> unless youre running from something
<ProcyonA> wait right? dont you have to take some time to take a 10?
<Carmen_Chapman> Correct.
<Carmen_Chapman> Taking 10 is something you can do for a rather menial thing, even if it has a penalty for failure, because if 10+your mod is enough to succeed, then you can just take some deep breaths and be fine
<Carmen_Chapman> If there's no penalty for failure for something and you can keep trying over and over again, then taking 20 is a thing because you can just assume you try over and over enough until you roll a 20
<TornSkippito> "To the roof then!"
<ProcyonA> "wait!"
<ProcyonA> One of the bears looks up
<ProcyonA> "is it safe to leave?"
<TornSkippito> "...no."
<TornSkippito> "I don't understand how there are so many monsters everywhere."
<ProcyonA> "pelase come back when it is"
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<Carmen_Chapman> "We killed everythin in this building Xept shit in the lobby so u should be safe for now"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Stay hidden n well be back"
<ProcyonA> "ok thank you"
<ProcyonA> The other one looks up and they give a weird smile that involves a lot of teet
* Carmen_Chapman summons her captchalogue tree, taking out a couple of wildflowers she picked from LOBAS
* Carmen_Chapman hands the bears a couple of flowers with a smile
<Carmen_Chapman> "Be brave"
* Carmen_Chapman waves, turning back to follow MaddoX out
<ProcyonA> They thank you and bid you goodbye
<ProcyonA> http://unisci24.com/data_images/wlls/6/189441-bear.jpg
* Maddox watches this happen, and gives a small smile.
<ProcyonA> So to the roof?
* Maddox heads to the roof
* Carmen_Chapman heads up the stairs to the roof
<Carmen_Chapman> "Think we got.... 4 of em?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "4 left?"
<Maddox> "..We might be able to do four more."
* Carmen_Chapman points out the building(s) that the remaining liches were in
<Carmen_Chapman> "Thats where I saw em"
<Maddox> "Crossing the street will be the hard part."
* Carmen_Chapman nods
* Maddox jumps across the gap {19} Athletics
<Maddox> ((10 + 9))
<ProcyonA> yeah you both get across the building
<ProcyonA> its not far, though i would consider it more dex than anything
* Carmen_Chapman follows
<Maddox> ((then its 14))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((I think D&D 5e has athletics for climbing, jumping and swimming))
<ProcyonA> really? good to know
<Carmen_Chapman> ((not sure))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((RPGStuck skills aren't always the same as 5e though))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((so it's up to you))
<Maddox> On the other side, we check the roof access stairwell again.
<ProcyonA> You get across the bridge either way
<ProcyonA> There is one
* Carmen_Chapman looX down into the building with her Pearl Tinted VR
<Carmen_Chapman> ((is this a building Carmen saw lich(es) in before?))
<ProcyonA> Yes, the last one on this side
<Carmen_Chapman> How many were in this one?
<ProcyonA> two you could remember
<Carmen_Chapman> "Two liches here but lemme check n see if my glasses pick up anythin else"
<ProcyonA> Nothing else in this building.
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dont see anythin else thats sweet"
<Maddox> "Good. Only two."
<Maddox> "Me first or you?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I'll go"
* Carmen_Chapman heads into the roof entrance to head down into the building
* Carmen_Chapman pauses at the entrance to the first door they encounter inside, carefully peeking her head around to see what's inside
* Maddox is close behind
<ProcyonA> Roll me some stealth checks
<Carmen_Chapman> lol
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+0 stealth with disadv
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+0 -->  | [ 1d20=19 ]{19}, [ 1d20=9 ]{9}
<Carmen_Chapman> Not too bad for disadvantage actually, haha
<Maddox> !roll 1d20-2
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-2 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {9}
<ProcyonA> im gonna start throwing stealth at you guys more since it seems like you guys were like  ¯\_('-')_/¯ who needs it
<ProcyonA> That makes it easy
<Carmen_Chapman> I didn't really bother putting skill points in it since Carmen's dex is bad and she has heavy armor
<Maddox> same
<Carmen_Chapman> So pretty much no matter what it will always be bad :|
<ProcyonA> pump that dex lad
<ProcyonA> or dont
<ProcyonA> means i have more things to throw at you
<Carmen_Chapman> Dex doesn't do anything if you have heavy armor
<Carmen_Chapman> And Carmen isn't that dextrous of a person so I started her with lower dex
<ProcyonA> http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Barbarian_Outpost#Advanced_course here we go lads this is your future
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh nuuuu Runescape :P
<Maddox> I can deal with that.
<Maddox> I got +4 acrobatics
<Maddox> just not any good at stealth :P
<ProcyonA> anywa you dont find anything in that first room, however all the walls have been smashed out so you can see through all the rooms
<ProcyonA> No liches on this floor
<ProcyonA> roll perception
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+5
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=3 ] | {8}
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+3 perception w/ adv
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+3 -->  | [ 1d20=18 ]{21}, [ 1d20=3 ]{6}
<ProcyonA> you smell smoke
<ProcyonA> its coming from the building you left
* Carmen_Chapman waves to MaddoX, whispering to him
<Carmen_Chapman> *this floors clear but I smell smoke comin from that window by the buildin we just left*
* Maddox grimaces
<Maddox> "...we can't go back for them."
* Carmen_Chapman looX puzzled
<Carmen_Chapman> "Why the fuX that?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We said we would!"
<Maddox> "You think we could make that jump while carrying two bears?!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Dude"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Theyre fuckin bears"
<ProcyonA> its like 5 feet and they were small bears
<Carmen_Chapman> "They can probs run n jump a lot more n us"
<Maddox> ((two fit in a bathtub, but yeah, good point))
<Carmen_Chapman> "U ever try runnin from a bear?"
<Maddox> "No."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Theyre fast"
* Carmen_Chapman turns to go back up the stairs
<Carmen_Chapman> "U can keep clearin this place if u wanna fuckin leave em to burn to death but Im goin back"
<Maddox> "I don't want them to burn to death!"
<Maddox> "If they can make the jump though..."
* Maddox follows Carmen
* Carmen_Chapman heads back out to the roof
<Maddox> ((Mentality of failure is a powerful thing))
* Carmen_Chapman mumbles to herself frustratedly
* Carmen_Chapman looX around to try and see where the smoke is coming from
<ProcyonA> From the top of the building, you see a bunch of monsters gathering outside the middle building. The first buildign you went in is entirely ablaze, and the side of the middle building closest to it is starting to catch.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Fuckin shits"
* Carmen_Chapman jumps back across to the previous building
<Carmen_Chapman> ((is that the one you referred to as the middle one?))
<ProcyonA> yes
* Maddox keeps following Carmen, wondering if they might actually save someone this time.
* Carmen_Chapman heads back down the stairs into the building, checking her Pearl Tinted VR to see if there are any monsters between them and the bears
<ProcyonA> Nope.
<ProcyonA> They havent moved though.
<Maddox> ((For the record: First time Maddox tried to save a bear, he critfailed twice a row and accidently axesabered it in half. The second time, he was running from an acheron for his life and couldn't save anyone there either. His # of Bears saved is -1)) :P
* Carmen_Chapman heads back down to the bears quickly
<ProcyonA> D:
<ProcyonA> Theyre hiding clutching the flowers. One of the rooms you had to pass through is starting to light, but the bathroom is safe
<ProcyonA> for now, of course
* Carmen_Chapman waves to them to get up
<Carmen_Chapman> "Were back!'
<Carmen_Chapman> "Cmon we gotta go"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Up this way"
<Maddox> "Fire."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Follow us"
<ProcyonA> They get up and run, keeping close to you
* Carmen_Chapman moves quickly back the way they came, heading back up to the roof
* Maddox , of course, does the same
* Carmen_Chapman points at the next building once they get to the roof
* Maddox glances at the bears nervously every once in a while
<Carmen_Chapman> "Theres monsters outside, but this building is pretty much empty!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We can get away from the fire over here"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U peeps can run better than us!"
* Carmen_Chapman smiles
<Carmen_Chapman> "Just jump over here"
* Carmen_Chapman gets a bit of a running start and jumps over, taking 10 again
<ProcyonA> They look down the gap
<ProcyonA> Then look back at carmen
<Carmen_Chapman> "U can do it!"
<ProcyonA> One of them goes and...
<ProcyonA> Makes it
<Carmen_Chapman> "MaddoXs got some magic powers that can help"
<ProcyonA> The other one looks down the gap and shakes its head
<ProcyonA> "f-far"
* Maddox makes the jump himself
<Maddox> "Come on."
<ProcyonA> It gets a running start and makes it, falling barely once it gets there
<Maddox> did it fall or make it?
<ProcyonA> it amde it, but ate shit once it was on the other building
* Carmen_Chapman reaches down to help it up
<Carmen_Chapman> "Good job!"
* Carmen_Chapman smiles
<ProcyonA> it gets up, still looking pretty freaked, crying a bit
<Carmen_Chapman> "Come downstairs now theres an empty floor u can hide in thats more covered than this roof"
<Maddox> "Good work. Keep your nose out for smoke though."
* Carmen_Chapman heads back downstairs, gesturing for the bears to follow
* Carmen_Chapman cheX down to make sure there's still no monsters on her Pearl Tinted VR
<ProcyonA> Not that you can see, but the fire is making your goggles do a bit of weird stuff
<Maddox> "This is bad. The flames are going to take these buildings down before long."
<Maddox> "We have to clear this one completely."
* Maddox looks at the bears nervously again.
* Carmen_Chapman maXe a quick "shh" gesture to MaddoX
<Carmen_Chapman> "Follow us!"
* Carmen_Chapman heads down to the next floor below they checked out earlier
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wait here in the corner n well go downstairs n make sure the coast is clear"
* Maddox nods at the bears
* Carmen_Chapman points to her glasses
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ill keep watch!"
<ProcyonA> "Can you see through walls" :0
* Carmen_Chapman winX
<Carmen_Chapman> "Well be right back!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Chill here n be quiet"
* Carmen_Chapman turns to MaddoX
<ProcyonA> They nod
<Carmen_Chapman> "U good to keep goin down?"
<Maddox> "Yeah. Let's go."
<ProcyonA> Ok, just down the stairs?
* Carmen_Chapman heads downstairs to the neXt floor, repeating the same door checking procedure
<ProcyonA> The rooms are again knocked out
<ProcyonA> its clear
<ProcyonA> and before you ask for every damn floor, you dont find anything on the residential floors
<Carmen_Chapman> What does that mean?
<ProcyonA> On the floors with just rooms, you dont find anything
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh okay
* Carmen_Chapman continues down to the neXt floor, repeating again
<Carmen_Chapman> etc etc until they find something
<Carmen_Chapman> ((besides just rooms or open empty floors))
<Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta move quickly"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U see anythin bout those liches anywhere MaddoX?"
<Maddox> "No. This doesn't seem right though. Do you think they noticed us?"
<Maddox> "Illusions, maybe? Like that strange forest?
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whaddya mean?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Like makin all the floors look empty?"
<Maddox> "Yeah."
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno"
* Maddox despite his doubts, Maddox continues searching floors with Carmen
* Carmen_Chapman continues down
* Carmen_Chapman repeats searching each floor similarly until they find something
<ProcyonA> The building is legitamately empty,a s far as you can tell
<Maddox> "...hm"
* Maddox says suddenly,
<Carmen_Chapman> "Liches left?"
<Maddox> "I'm going to check on the fire!"
* Maddox runs upstairs to the roof
* Carmen_Chapman heads back up to the bears
<ProcyonA> the other building is essentially on fire now
* Maddox returns to Carmen and the Bears
<Maddox> "I don't know how long it will be before this building catches fire. The other one is basically gone now."
<Maddox> "You think we can cross the street?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta get out of this building"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Liches musta left or somethin cuz of the fire"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta be careful out there though they got those fuckin beams"
<Maddox> "That's gotta be it."
* Carmen_Chapman nods her head over in the direXon of where the bears are
<Carmen_Chapman> "Got an ideas on how to keep them safe from the beams?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We can try n run real fast across"
<Maddox> "I think our only chance is to run."
<Maddox> "We could leave them in the lobby, but that's pretty risky!"
* Carmen_Chapman nods
* Carmen_Chapman approaches the bears
<Carmen_Chapman> "K below us looX empty so lets go!"
<ProcyonA> They look to you for guidance
<ProcyonA> "Ok!"
<ProcyonA> They get up ad follow you
* Carmen_Chapman heads back downstairs
* Maddox follows behind, bringing up the rear
<ProcyonA> Ok you have no problem until you reach the lobby, where you see the monsters outside, trying to deicde what to do about the burning  building you assume
<Maddox> How many?
<ProcyonA> 3 liches, a crowd of imps, a few basilisks and an ogre
* Maddox mutters "Crap."
* Carmen_Chapman decaptchalogues a couple of Lightworks
<Carmen_Chapman> "These might be p distractin"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I also got a stink grenade"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whaddya think?"
<Maddox> "We run across and fight them in the other Lobby, maybe?"
<Maddox> "I don't think we can outrun those basilisks...."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Nope nope nope"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We can use the front door to the building like a sorta chokepoint"
<Maddox> "This one, or that one?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "That one"
<Maddox> "And the bears?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Were gonna get stuck in here n get roasted if we dont leave I think we all gotta get outta here"
* Maddox nods
<Carmen_Chapman> "Idk how long til u think the fire gets this place?"
<Maddox> "A few minutes, at most?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I think we gotta stick together"
<Maddox> "Yeah."
* Maddox turns to the bears
<Maddox> "We're going to run to the other building after Carmen"
* Maddox turns to Carmen
<Maddox> "Throws the smoke bomb?"
<ProcyonA> "We follow?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dont got a smoke bomb"
<Maddox> "Oh yeah, the stink grenade."
<Maddox> "But yes. As fast as you can."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ill use the LightworX to distract"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I can shoot it over by the burnin buildin n itll Xplode with a big bang and a buncha flashes"
<Maddox> "Sounds good."
* Carmen_Chapman readies a Lightworks
* Carmen_Chapman poXe her head out of the door and shoots off the Lightworks in the general area of the burning buildings, away from where they're trying to run
* Carmen_Chapman maXe a break for it right after it launches off
* Carmen_Chapman runs across the street
* Maddox does as well
<ProcyonA> The bears follow
<ProcyonA> not super fast but they make it
<ProcyonA> roll performance to see what kind of commotion you make
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+4 performance
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=1 ] | {5}
<Carmen_Chapman> rip
<Maddox> ((ono))
<ProcyonA> yikes
<Carmen_Chapman> even pumped cha for stuff like this
<Maddox> ((That's still a five. But only a five :( ))
<ProcyonA> you peek your head out the door, launch it, and immediately clip a trash can maybe 5 feet in front of you
<ProcyonA> All the monsters turn towards you.
<Carmen_Chapman> ((Every time Carmen has used one of these this has happened >.<))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((#diceconspiracy))
<ProcyonA> so im gonna take back them running across
<ProcyonA> maddox you can too
<Maddox> how close are they?
<ProcyonA> a building over so... maybe like 40 feet?
<ProcyonA> wati tahts too far
<ProcyonA> 25?
<Maddox> sure. Yeah, we hold back.
<Maddox> The bears and I
<ProcyonA> Carmen theyre all looking at you.
<ProcyonA> what do you dio
* Carmen_Chapman runs across anyways
<ProcyonA> The bears look to maddox for guidance.
<ProcyonA> The monsters run after carmen
* Maddox glances at the bears, then at the monsters chasing Carmen, then mutters.
<Maddox> "Crap!"
* Carmen_Chapman runs across the street as fast as she can, stopping inside the front door of the building across the street
<Maddox> ((How many monsters are chasing Carmen? All of them?))
<ProcyonA> yeah all of them
<ProcyonA> There are no monsters in this building you can see with VR
* Carmen_Chapman grins, getting ready her chainsaw
<Maddox> If I stepped a little to the side, how many could I line up within 3 feet of either side of me in a straight line?
* Carmen_Chapman enters the building, stopping a bit inside the door, and turns around ready to fight and use the door as a chokepoint so the monsters have to enter the building barely to get to her
<Carmen_Chapman> ((but not so far back that they can all just flood in the door, she still kind of blocks the entrance))
<ProcyonA> a good number if they bunch up at the door
<Maddox> "Bears, you might need to hide in here for a bit."
<ProcyonA> They bunch up, the ogre at the front
<ProcyonA> it smashes down the door and they line up to fight.
<ProcyonA> STRIFE
<ProcyonA> maddox has a surprise round, other than that lets get some inish
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+0 initiative w/ adv
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+0 -->  | [ 1d20=7 ]{7}, [ 1d20=16 ]{16}
<Maddox> !roll 1d20 initiative
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=14 ] | {14}
<Maddox> Surprise round:
* Maddox , having warned the bears, charges out the door of the building and lines himself up so his path will collide with as many of the monsters Carmen has clumped as possible.
<Maddox> Halfway across the street, he blinks 15 feet forward using Pierce 1!
<ProcyonA> Alright
<Maddox> ((I make one weapon attack roll against all enemies I would hit.))
<ProcyonA> coming from the side, you can get 4 imps, the ogre, and two liches
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+4 to-hit
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=18 ] | {22}
<Maddox> (( :D ))
<ProcyonA> thats a big hit
<Maddox> (( " Your next attack hits N+1 targets within range, but cannot hit the same target twice. If you hit a target engaged in grapple, they roll ATH vs your To-Hit. If you win, they are no longer engaged in grapple. "))
<Maddox> One damage roll you think, or one for each?
<Maddox> wrong one.
<Maddox> (("Your next attack hits all enemies in a 5+5*N+(weapon range) line emanating from you. If you’re using a melee weapon, you can be moved to the end of the line.))
<Maddox> ((also it was pierce 2
<Maddox> not 1, because that wouldn't be 15 feet)
<Carmen_Chapman> ((usually for AoE attacks that only involve one attack roll, it's also one damage roll))
<ProcyonA> i agree, one roll
<Maddox> !roll 2d8+1d10+1d4+4 damage
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2d8+1d10+1d4+4 --> [ 2d8=10 ][ 1d10=3 ][ 1d4=1 ] | {18}
<Maddox> I end up just through the doorway, in front of that first Ogre.
<Maddox> "Made it!"
<Maddox> I turn to face the Ogre, and use my minor to maintain an instance I've kept around from the building search.
<Maddox> end turn.
<ProcyonA> Ok
<ProcyonA> A basilisk moves first
<ProcyonA> He goes after maddox, doin the usual bite thing
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=2 ] | {2}
<ProcyonA> And clearly misses
<ProcyonA> His buddy comes up and attempts to follow with another bite
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {6}
<ProcyonA> and sucks as well
<ProcyonA> The ogre moves now
<ProcyonA> He smashes the door off his hinges as he body slams Carmen
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20+3
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=17 ] | {20}
<ProcyonA> and hits, i assume?
<Carmen_Chapman> Yes
<Carmen_Chapman> How were the basilisks getting in to attack?
<Carmen_Chapman> Were they coming in in front of the ogre and then stepping back again so the next one could get to the doorway?
<Carmen_Chapman> Are they the three enemies right outside the door?
<ProcyonA> They were attacking maddox, outside
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh okay
<Maddox> I thought I got to Carmen.
<Carmen_Chapman> Damage from the ogre?
<ProcyonA> They're all crowding the door
<Maddox> Ran halfway across the street then blinked 15 feet through dudes.
<Maddox> got it.
<Carmen_Chapman> They missed anyways
<Maddox> yeah
<ProcyonA> ah right the blinking
<ProcyonA> ok so the ogre just punches but gets the same to hit
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4+3
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4+3 --> [ 1d4=2 ] | {5}
<ProcyonA> take 5 damage
<ProcyonA> The first lich launches a quick fireball at maddox
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4 --> [ 1d4=3 ] | {3}
<ProcyonA> for an easy 3 turns
<ProcyonA> sorry damage
<ProcyonA> its now your turn
<Carmen_Chapman> So the orge is the one that's right outside the door now?
<Maddox> Carmen's right?
<Carmen_Chapman> Yeah
<ProcyonA> oh yeah whoops
<ProcyonA> carmen's
<ProcyonA> hes right inside as he came to attack you
* Carmen_Chapman swings her chainsaw at the ogre in front of her
<Carmen_Chapman> So we have the doorway, with Carmen on one side and the ogre on the other, a bunch of other enemies outside, and Maddox next to Carmen inside?
<ProcyonA> yep
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+6 attack w/ adv
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+6 -->  | [ 1d20=20 ]{26}, [ 1d20=5 ]{11}
<Maddox> (( :D ))
<Carmen_Chapman> Lol
<Carmen_Chapman> Unnecessary crit is unnecessary
<Carmen_Chapman> Pretty sure it's nearly impossible to not one hit kill them normally anyways :P
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 6d12+4d8+8d2+6 damage
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 6d12+4d8+8d2+6 --> [ 6d12=41 ][ 4d8=19 ][ 8d2=10 ] | {76}
<ProcyonA> yeeeeep
<Maddox> lol
<Carmen_Chapman> Two liches, the ogre, and 4 imps also already took 18 damage from Maddox
<ProcyonA> im gonna say you cut such a swath, you hit one of the basilisks and just obliterate it too, dealing half the overkill dmage from the ogre
<Carmen_Chapman> Was the ogre dead already anyways?
<ProcyonA> Nope not quite
<Carmen_Chapman> imps were though?
<ProcyonA> yep
<Carmen_Chapman> Okay that makes sense then
* Carmen_Chapman yells at the other basilisk
<Carmen_Chapman> "WHOS NEXT???"
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+13 intimidate
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+13 --> [ 1d20=13 ] | {26}
<Carmen_Chapman> It also targets whatever other creature is closest to the basilisk
<Carmen_Chapman> What is the other creature that gets targeted by the intimidate, ProcyonA ?
<ProcyonA> the other basilisk
<Carmen_Chapman> Okay
<Carmen_Chapman> They should both roll then
<ProcyonA> !roll 2#1d20+0
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+0 -->  | [ 1d20=15 ]{15}, [ 1d20=7 ]{7}
<ProcyonA> ok so i honestly dont know why i bothered
<Carmen_Chapman> One of them is frightened (so disadvantage and can't come closer)
<Carmen_Chapman> The other gets -5 to rolls
<Carmen_Chapman> end turn
<Maddox> My turn?
<Maddox> What monsters are left and where are they?
<ProcyonA> Nope the other one attacks
<ProcyonA> theres several imps, both liches, and the basilisks
<ProcyonA> Oh right and its the other basilisk's turn
<ProcyonA> He goes for the grapple on carmen
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20+7
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+7 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {13}
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+6 athletics
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+6 --> [ 1d20=9 ] | {15}
<ProcyonA> OK so you throw it off
<Carmen_Chapman> So now it is the monster in the doorway?
<ProcyonA> what do you mean the monster in the doorway
<Carmen_Chapman> The ogre was the one in front by the door
<Carmen_Chapman> But then it died, leaving a space
<Carmen_Chapman> Then the basilisk came in up front to attack Carmen
<ProcyonA> oh yes it is
<Carmen_Chapman> Just to get an idea of which monsters are where with respect to the doorway to we know what is within reach
<ProcyonA> but its on the side of a doorframe so something can squeeze through
<Carmen_Chapman> Okie
<Carmen_Chapman> Maddox's turn?
<ProcyonA> yep
<Maddox> Doing the *only* rational thing, I run towards the door again, lining up as many monsters as possible.
<Maddox> How many can I get?
<ProcyonA> you can get 2 basilisks, a lich, and 2 imps
<Maddox> sounds good
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+4 to-hit
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=18 ] | {22}
<ProcyonA> hits em all
<Maddox> !roll 2d8+1d10+1d4+4 damage
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2d8+1d10+1d4+4 --> [ 2d8=5 ][ 1d10=10 ][ 1d4=3 ] | {22}
<ProcyonA> you gib everything except the lich, who is starting to look rouch
<ProcyonA> rough
<Maddox> Just the lich between me and Carmen?
<Maddox> If so, I run back to the doorway.
<ProcyonA> nothing is between you two now
<Maddox> cool. Move action is to return to the door.
<Maddox> end turn.
<ProcyonA> alrighty
<ProcyonA> the monsters focus on you
<ProcyonA> First the lich touches you and drains some hp
<ProcyonA> whats your con resistance?
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20+6
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+6 --> [ 1d20=13 ] | {19}

<ProcyonA> !roll 3d8+2
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 3d8+2 --> [ 3d8=19 ] | {21}
<ProcyonA> damn tahts a lot
<Maddox> yeah.
* Maddox yells as a third of his life force is taken from him.
* Maddox fails to be very manly in his yell.
<ProcyonA> The other lich slashes at you
<ProcyonA> wait nvm
<ProcyonA> that one already went
<ProcyonA> the imps now attack
<ProcyonA> Only three of them can get in a good angle to attack you
<ProcyonA> !roll 3#1d20-1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 3#1d20-1 -->  | [ 1d20=17 ]{16}, [ 1d20=4 ]{3}, [ 1d20=1 ]{0}
<ProcyonA> One of them attacks one of his buddies
<Maddox> The first hits lol
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4-1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4-1 --> [ 1d4=1 ] | {0}
<Maddox> LOL
<ProcyonA> lmao
<ProcyonA> hes incompetent
<ProcyonA> the other attacks you
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4-1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4-1 --> [ 1d4=3 ] | {2}
<Maddox> He just punches his buddy's shoulder like "Hey, look at that!"
<ProcyonA> ok so two more damage
<Carmen_Chapman> Man, for Carmen having the armor and HP and for Maddox having the mobility and utility, Carmen is making a pretty bad tank :P
<Maddox> You might want to get a get-down-mr-president move next feat ^^
<ProcyonA> the third lich cant get in, so he uses a bolt
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d4+1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4+1 --> [ 1d4=3 ] | {4}
<ProcyonA> anther of the smarter imps smashes a window
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=16 ] | {16}
<ProcyonA> yeah now they can get in around, two of them pour in, but cant act
<ProcyonA> The only other monster that can attack is the other lich which climbs in and slashes
<Maddox> slashes who?
<ProcyonA> Carmen in back
<ProcyonA> !roll 1d20+1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+1 --> [ 1d20=5 ] | {6}
<Carmen_Chapman> miss
<ProcyonA> yep
<ProcyonA> carmen's turn
<Carmen_Chapman> So there's two liches left?
<Maddox> and three imps
<Maddox> it seems.
<Carmen_Chapman> One is inside and the one outside is pretty hurt?
<Carmen_Chapman> If that's the case, she attacks the one inside who climbed through the window and attacked her
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+6 attack w/ adv
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+6 -->  | [ 1d20=11 ]{17}, [ 1d20=15 ]{21}
<ProcyonA> it is the case
<ProcyonA> he of course gets hit
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 3d12+2d8+4d2+6 damage
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 3d12+2d8+4d2+6 --> [ 3d12=24 ][ 2d8=9 ][ 4d2=7 ] | {46}
<ProcyonA> it dies
<Maddox> :D
<ProcyonA> which means maddox is now next
<Maddox> I run back to the lower-health still-alive lich, and swing twice!
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+4 to-hit
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {15}
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh

<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2d8+1d10+1d4+4 --> [ 2d8=8 ][ 1d10=7 ][ 1d4=4 ] | {23}
<Maddox> is it dead?
<Carmen_Chapman> Before she ended her turn Carmen was going to stand outside the door to draw fire
<Carmen_Chapman> Intimidation probably won't matter so I'll just end her turn there
<Carmen_Chapman> for convenience
<ProcyonA> the second one isnt dead
<Maddox> I swing again.'
<ProcyonA> the liches rolled well for hp this time
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+4
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=15 ] | {19}
<Maddox> !roll 2d8+1d10+1d4 damage
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2d8+1d10+1d4 --> [ 2d8=8 ][ 1d10=5 ][ 1d4=1 ] | {14}
<ProcyonA> and he barely goes down
<ProcyonA> The imps scatter.
<Maddox> End combat?
<ProcyonA> One of them gets hit with a rock, thrown by one of the bears yo uhelped, who were watching from the other lobby.
<ProcyonA> end strife
<Maddox> "The bears!"
* Maddox returns across the street to check on them.
<Carmen_Chapman> 6 imps, ogre, 3 basilisks, 2 liches, right?
<Carmen_Chapman> 4 basilisks?
<ProcyonA> 3 basilisks
<ProcyonA> we can end it here if you want?
<Maddox> That's probably good.
<Carmen_Chapman> Sure
<Maddox> Btw, 50/50 grist split from these and the other mobs?
<Maddox> Might as well catch up on the XP from these and the other mobs as well.

<Maddox> "<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 6d8 Tier I Grist
<Maddox> <Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 6d8 --> [ 6d8=26 ] | {26}"
<Carmen_Chapman> We have a total of 1762 build grist
<Maddox> now we halve all of those and gain that.
<ProcyonA> The bear gains a rung
<ProcyonA> URSUS CATAPULTUS
<ProcyonA> So you've got a huge pile of grist and several curious bears looking on from afar
* Maddox and Carmen collect the grist, then I return to the bears.
<Maddox> "We have to get out of here."
* Carmen_Chapman follows MaddoX over to the bears
<ProcyonA> "Get out of where? we live here"
<Maddox> "Do you think you would survive another day?"
<ProcyonA> They gesture to the other apartment block
<ProcyonA> "They don't expand past their territory"
<ProcyonA> "weve had conflicts but they have no interests in killing us"
<Maddox> "Hm. They have territory?"
<ProcyonA> "It's not formal, but yes. Several apartment buildings are held by them, and largely they stay there."
<Maddox> "Hm. Everyone else is fine?"
<ProcyonA> "Largely, they live normal lives and avoid a few blocks like theyre impassable. Occasionally a foolish kid or bold warrior attempts to take on something  and there are scuffles, but we are ok"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Which buildinsr theirs???"
<ProcyonA> He chuckles. "Got a map?"
<ProcyonA> "Ask any bear. They'll know.
<Maddox> "This situation is a lot less terrible than I thought."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Why were u peeps hidin in a bathroom from monsters in ur building then???"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Im really confused'
<ProcyonA> "I guess... those two were the foolish kids. WE're from a different block and no one has been looking here."
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> "Then peeps gotta stop doin that til the monsters r gone!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We took out a fuckin pile of em today but Im p sure theres like two a those annoyin ass zombie magic things round here still somewhere"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whyd they stay outta ur bloX???"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Monsters been fightin us all over... s just kinda weird"
<ProcyonA> "We don't know."
<ProcyonA> "That is just... what happens."
<Maddox> "We should take the rest out then."
<Maddox> "If it's only a few blocks... maybe we could pull it off!"
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<ProcyonA> "Maybe, and I hope."
<Maddox> "Well, do you know where we can get a map?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U gotta take care a that dude not me"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Maps are the fuckin worst I just get confused"
<ProcyonA> "I can refer you to some more bookish people, but we don't have one."
* Carmen_Chapman pats MaddoX gingerly on the back
<Carmen_Chapman> "Sounds good we gotta get MaddoX patched up anyways"
* Maddox smiles a bit, relieved that the situation isn't hopeless
<Carmen_Chapman> "So where we gotta go for a map?"
<ProcyonA> "some of the more bookish people have holed up in a library... but its one of the blocks that isn't safe"
<ProcyonA> "They live across the library but theres an infestation of the snakes"
<ProcyonA> "And rumors of something bigger in the basement"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta get you up on ur feet before we go there MaddoX"
<Maddox> "Yeah, I'm a bit hurt."
<Maddox> "Is it alright if we come back tomorrow?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U wanna leave?"
<ProcyonA> "OF course. We'll be here"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We could hole up here for a bit n patch up if u want"
<Carmen_Chapman> "If were gone for too long they might regroup...."
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Maybe thats just my fuckin dads paranoia talkin"
<Maddox> "That could be alright."
<Maddox> "I need a short nap."
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<Carmen_Chapman> "I can keep watch"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I can also get my first aid kit n patch us up a bit while we rest"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ive been usin this thing all the fuckin time!"
<Maddox> "Alright!"
* Maddox turns to the bears
<Maddox> "Would you happen to know a nearby safe place we can rest for a bit?
<ProcyonA> "You can stay in one of our apartment blocks"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Sweet!'
<Maddox> "Thanks!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ill follow u"
* Maddox and Carmen follow the bears
<ProcyonA> Ok so we'll so a slide transition
<ProcyonA> you guys are all comfortable in a room
<Carmen_Chapman> so fancy
<ProcyonA> want to do any chatting
<ProcyonA> no character development during this long rest?
<Maddox> I think we're going for a short rest.
<Carmen_Chapman> ^
<ProcyonA> got it
<Carmen_Chapman> 15-30 minutes to use hit dice
<ProcyonA> cool cool
<ProcyonA> ready to continue?
<Maddox> !roll 1d6+1 hit die 1
<Carmen_Chapman> Should we roll hit dice here?
<Carmen_Chapman> rip dicebot
<Maddox> !roll 1d6+1 hit die 1

<Carmen_Chapman> good to go
<Maddox> back up to 68% health
<Carmen_Chapman> More then?
<Maddox> I accidentally rolled 7 instead of the max 6
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh you can only do max 6?
<Maddox> according to the 1e sheet, yeah
<Carmen_Chapman> I don't see anything about that in the PHB
<Carmen_Chapman> huh
<Maddox> I'll just keep rolling then :P
<Maddox> !roll 1d6+1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d6+1 --> [ 1d6=5 ] | {6}
<Maddox> !roll 1d6+1

<Maddox> didn't roll that last one.
<Maddox> there
<Carmen_Chapman> cool
<Maddox> "Alright, I think I'm ready to go."
* Carmen_Chapman patches up some of MaddoX's wounds with the first aid kit while he rests
* Carmen_Chapman puts a couple of band-aids and a bit of burn cream on herself
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<Carmen_Chapman> "yup"
<Maddox> "Let's fix this place!"
<ProcyonA> ready to go?
<Carmen_Chapman> Indeed
<Maddox> yep
<ProcyonA> Ok you go grab the bears.
<ProcyonA> They too have been resting up
<ProcyonA> "Ready to go? Our block is near to the Library
<Carmen_Chapman> "Lets go!"
<ProcyonA> They take you through the streets.
<ProcyonA> Now @maddox i might be going against what originally the city was
<ProcyonA> but i dont 100% rememeber how it was described
<ProcyonA> You walk through mostly desolate, empty city blocks.
<Maddox> sounds good
* Maddox is ready, telekinesis up and axes ready
<ProcyonA> the ones that have bears in them are relatively populated and full of life, some stores and stands out front, and its very clear when a block is or was "infested" as the graffiti on the ground says
<ProcyonA> the rest are... quiet
<ProcyonA> there are no cars, no poeple walking down the street
<ProcyonA> there's largely no one moving from block to block except your party
<Maddox> electric light sources?
<ProcyonA> Everything is very ordered and regular, a few times tehres a unique building, and from what you can tell, nearly unique buidings were at one point infested
<Maddox> ((I totally don't remember where light was coming from. The whole place is underground after all.))
<Maddox> ((Jamster never specified.))
<ProcyonA> ((ah shit i forgot about that))
<ProcyonA> Yeah a lot of electric lamps
<ProcyonA> Finally you reach the block, after maybe a mile or two of walking, that the bears step off on
<ProcyonA> they wish you goodbye and thank you, their friends and family rushing out to greet them
<ProcyonA> They give you directions to the Library
<Maddox> "Thank you as well!"
* Carmen_Chapman waves to them as they head off
<ProcyonA> Your directions lead you to a library, a very classic, traditional looking library
<Maddox> "So we need a map, and then a bear to mark the positions."
<ProcyonA> Theres graffiti all around it, looking fresher that the other infested graffiti that you've found
<Maddox> "Hopefully we can find a city map here."
<ProcyonA> THere are arrows around the library pointing to another block, where there are a few bears currently outside
<ProcyonA> they appear to have... weapons
<ProcyonA> https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6094/6303307845_358a42b44a_b_d.jpg&imgrefurl=https://www.aoc.gov/capitol-buildings/thomas-jefferson-building&h=646&w=1024&tbnid=J9q61JaRVnNc7M:&tbnh=126&tbnw=200&usg=__B9I4ZRETDWVAXmobCC-rxPZ-MFg%3D&vet=10ahUKEwiuqO29z5zZAhWS7VMKHQSVBPsQ_B0IiQIwCg..i&docid=IZApXt9TilJczM&itg=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiuqO29z5zZAhWS7VMKHQSVBPsQ_B0IiQIwCg
<ProcyonA> for inspiration
<ProcyonA> but with buildings all aroudn
<Maddox> ah
<ProcyonA> the bears are basically where the grreen area in front is
<ProcyonA> and theres another apartment block that they apparently occupy
* Carmen_Chapman heads over towards the bears, waving
<Carmen_Chapman> "Hi!"
<Maddox> "Hello."
<ProcyonA> They look up
<ProcyonA> They appaer to be gearing up, but the weapons dont look sharp
<Maddox> "We are here for a map of the city, do you happen to have one?"
<ProcyonA> They look more like animal wranglers than warriors
<ProcyonA> and one of them, the largest, has an enormous what looks like flashlight
<ProcyonA> "We... might"
<ProcyonA> Says one of the unarmed ones
<ProcyonA> "Why? WHy do you need it"
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out her chainsaw
<Carmen_Chapman> "Why does it look like???"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Got some monster killin to do"
* Maddox nods
<ProcyonA> "Not purely academic like our interests then"
<Carmen_Chapman> "LooX like ur gearin up to fight too"
<ProcyonA> "Not fight per se. We're more in the business of deterrent"
<ProcyonA> The only one talking is as bookish as a bear can get
<ProcyonA> glasses, a backpack, holding a clipboard and pen with intricate drawings on it... what looks like a map
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whatcha mean?"
<ProcyonA> "We don't fight the monsters, we run"
<ProcyonA> the one that spoke is small, and has what looks like a cattle prod
<Maddox> "We killed three buildings worth earlier today."
<ProcyonA> "Great for you"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Sooooooo"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U deter or whatever by runnin away?"
<ProcyonA> "Yes."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wat"
<Maddox> "That seems... practical"
<ProcyonA> "well if we try to fight, generally we begin to die"
<ProcyonA> oh shit
<ProcyonA> i thought that said impractical
<ProcyonA> "we agree. We've found if we stand and fight, we begin to die"
* Maddox nods
<Maddox> "How many are there?"
<ProcyonA> "One infestation of lizard snakes and 3 huge monsters in the basement."
<Maddox> "Thats all for the whole city?"
<ProcyonA> "Thats for that building right there."
<ProcyonA> The nerdy one points to the library
<Carmen_Chapman> "U goin in there?"
<ProcyonA> "We are indeed. Why?"
<Maddox> "I thought you just run?"
<ProcyonA> "Yep."
<ProcyonA> "We launch expeditions in there and if we run into them we run."
<Carmen_Chapman> "That sounds p fuckin annoying"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Why go there then?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U got stuff u wanna do in the library thing?"
<ProcyonA> "There are books there, books containing information that I- we can use."
<ProcyonA> "Thats the only way we can get them"
<ProcyonA> "Whatever scoundrel architected this building made it twisting and confusing. We can't just dip in, libraries are hard enough to find books in anyway."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Sounds like u peeps could use some help with the monsters then"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U like booX... I can tell"
<ProcyonA> "we've done just fine on our own thank you."
<Carmen_Chapman> "We can help u get em"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Wouldnt it be a whole fuckin lot easier to get all the booX u need if u didnt have to worry bout the monsters anymore?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "No runnin away if a monster catches u"
<Carmen_Chapman> "No rushin to find the stuff u want"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U can just go in whenever u want n do whatever u want"
<ProcyonA> "I suppose. We are doing fine on our own, however."
<Carmen_Chapman> "Never said u werent"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Just saying we can make it even better"
<Carmen_Chapman> "U know... for booX n stuff"
<ProcyonA> The bookish one looks kind of in a huff. He puts the pen in a clip i the clipboard and stashes it in a packpack the biggest bear with the flashlight is carrying.
<ProcyonA> "Very well."
<ProcyonA> "Come along, but do not endanger us by engaging foolishly."
<ProcyonA> "If a member of our crew dies, it is on you."
<Carmen_Chapman> "I u dont wanna deal with us u dont have to"
<Carmen_Chapman> "We can go round in there somewhere ur not"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Whaddya think MaddoX?"
<ProcyonA> "No no fine. come along if you insist."
<Maddox> "We will come."
<Maddox> "Let us stay in front though."
<Maddox> "Or one ahead and one behind."
<ProcyonA> "Fine, but do it our way."
<ProcyonA> "And I walk with the one in the front"
<Maddox> "Alright."
<ProcyonA> "We have a definite objective."
<ProcyonA> "This is not a death match"
<ProcyonA> "This is a mcguffin quest."
<ProcyonA> "Understood?"
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> "If ur gonna be a stick in the mud well come along n help keep monsters away now n we can come back later to aXually kill all of em"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Or just not clear the place out at all"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Since u peeps parently totes dont need any help"
<ProcyonA> "Boss... we need the help."
<ProcyonA> "We'd love for you guys to come along."
<ProcyonA> this is a differnt bear
* Carmen_Chapman smiles at MaddoX
<ProcyonA> He kind of huffs and slings his backpack on his back.
<ProcyonA> "Shall we then?"
<Maddox> "Let's go!"
<ProcyonA> He heads off, and all the rest shoulder their backpacks and start
* Carmen_Chapman hops a couple times to get her blood pumping
<Carmen_Chapman> "Im ready!!!"
* Maddox smiles, re-summons his telekinetic instance, and takes up the rear
<ProcyonA> They head towrad the steps and enter the library.
<ProcyonA> its dark, and you enter first a large lobby room.
<ProcyonA> There is trash and paper from random books all over the place, strewn about
<ProcyonA> there are no lights, and each person pulls out night vision goggles
<ProcyonA> they don't put them on, but pull out fashlight as well
<ProcyonA> they flick them on and head toward the back of the room where the stacks are located
<ProcyonA> this first floor of the stacks are empty.
* Carmen_Chapman puts on her Pearl Tinted VR
<ProcyonA> all the books have been taken from the shelves, and the team ignores this room, making a beeline for what looks like an elavator in the corner.
* Carmen_Chapman whispers
* Maddox pulls out his phone, enables the flashlight function, and holds it aloft telekinetically.
<Carmen_Chapman> "I can look out for some of the monsters up ahead"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Letchu know if I see anythin"
<Maddox> "Alright."
* Maddox nods
<ProcyonA> "thermal?"
<ProcyonA> The nerdy ones says, turning around.
<ProcyonA> He briefly looks at the floating flashlight and ignores it
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<Carmen_Chapman> "Kinda"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Xept it can see through walls"
<ProcyonA> "Hm. we'll see. We've had no luck with thermal, the walls and tunnels are generally solid rock."
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ive seen shit underground in basements from up on top of apartment buildins before"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Cant do anythin bout it now well just keep on goin"
<Carmen_Chapman> "See what happens"
<ProcyonA> He turns and continues walking towards what appears to be an elevator in the corner. the doors are jammed open, though, and there is caution tape and an arrow down in front
<ProcyonA> an arrow pointing down
<Maddox> "Nonfunctioning elevator."
* Maddox waits to see what the bears do
<ProcyonA> You get closer and see a hole in the floor and a ladder going down.
<ProcyonA> "It works, we just don'tlike broadcasting our presesnce"
<Maddox> "Ah."
<ProcyonA> They all huddle around the hole
<Maddox> how far down does it go?
<ProcyonA> "today we're going to... section d-b-12"
<Maddox> "Alright."
<ProcyonA> "Please keep quiet while i brief"
<ProcyonA> "Our objective is a small pamphlet from a philosopher, who also included schematics for something."
<ProcyonA> "we don't know what it is, but we intend to find out, other books have pointed to it as an important piece of the puzzle"
<ProcyonA> "We take the ladder to the fourth to bottom floor."
<ProcyonA> "We are skirting the main balcony, so especially to our new friends... we must be as quiet as possible."
<ProcyonA> "We'd rather not find out if the number of... mystery monsters are more than what we've scouted
<ProcyonA> "Everyone udnerstand?"
* Maddox only nods, a bit annoyed at having to be quiet, but not much.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Oh"
<ProcyonA> "I know you all do but im mostly speaking to our new buddies"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ill take some a this off then"
* Carmen_Chapman looX a bit dejected as she starts undoing parts of her arms to take some of the noisier bulky chunks off
* Carmen_Chapman reduces her armor coverage from heavy to medium
<ProcyonA> He sees and says "thank goodness. don't need any mannequins clanking around"
* Maddox frowns, but doesn't say anything.
<ProcyonA> "ready to go?"
<Maddox> "yep."
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<ProcyonA> The big boy starst climbing.
<ProcyonA> They all continue to climb
* Maddox climbs down after
<ProcyonA> YOu climb for a while, and finally uou start to see crudely made cables to elevator stops on the other side of the shaft. you climb for a longer time, and finally there is a hold up. You also hear echoed hissing and occaionally a book knocked over
<ProcyonA> You look down and see them as they attatch themselves to the cable with a carabiner and pull themselves across.
<ProcyonA> Finally its your turn to do it
<ProcyonA> WHat do you do?
<ProcyonA> your as in maddox's
<Maddox> how far is the gap?
<ProcyonA> the size of an elevator shaft
<Maddox> I jump it, grabbing and making a swing from the cable if I'm not on course to make it.
<ProcyonA> roll dex
<ProcyonA> and roll high my friend
<ProcyonA> its a long way down
<Maddox> ath first, right?
<Maddox> because I'm trying to jump it
<ProcyonA> ah thats right
<ProcyonA> i always forget jumping
<Maddox> I take 10.
<Maddox> {20}
<ProcyonA> classic maddox
<Maddox> :P
<ProcyonA> YOu sit there and think hard........ and fucking spring off the wall
<ProcyonA> now roll dex to not make a fucking racket
<ProcyonA> and you cant take 10 on this one
<Maddox> I take 10
<Maddox> {15}
<Maddox> AW
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+5
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {25}
<ProcyonA> well
<ProcyonA> you a god damn cat
<Maddox> :thumbsup:
<Maddox> I land next to one of the bears, silent.
<ProcyonA> They silently regard you
<ProcyonA> Carmen? you also jumping?
<ProcyonA> ill give you advantage for coming up with something smarter but i think your whack ass stats will make it up
<Carmen_Chapman> So we're on a ladder trying to get to an opening in the wall, and there's a cable connecting them that the bears pulled themselves across?
<ProcyonA> yes
<ProcyonA> they connceted themselves with a carabiner to their clothes
* Carmen_Chapman mutters under her breath about leaving her outdoor equipment at home
* Maddox waves from the other side
<Carmen_Chapman> So Carmen could do the same thing, just not with the carabiner as a safety mechanism?
<ProcyonA> ou could certianly tie yourself to it
<Carmen_Chapman> If rope were a thing and Carmen could decaptchalogue things
<Carmen_Chapman> Alas, neither of those are true
<Carmen_Chapman> So she could do the same thing, just without a safety mechanism?
<ProcyonA> oh yeah you could
<ProcyonA> sorry i was thinking the tie part rather than the hold on part
<Carmen_Chapman> That seems quieter than jumping
* Carmen_Chapman crosses on the cable
<Carmen_Chapman> 17 for athletics
<ProcyonA> You manage effortlessly
<ProcyonA> roll stealth with advantage
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2#1d20+0 stealth
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20+0 -->  | [ 1d20=1 ]{1}, [ 1d20=12 ]{12}
<Maddox> good thing for advantage lol
<ProcyonA> good thing i gave you that advantage
<ProcyonA> you arent as catlike as maddox, but its fine
<ProcyonA> youre all on the other side.
<ProcyonA> He gives the universal "lets go"
* Carmen_Chapman looX around on this floor with her Pearl Tinted VR, now that they're down here and there aren't a bunch of floor in the way
<ProcyonA> you know the two fingers in a direction
<Maddox> you notice two figures in a direction?
<ProcyonA> im gonna find a graphic
<Carmen_Chapman> No that's the universal lets go sign
<Carmen_Chapman> Where you hold up to fingers and them point them forwards
<ProcyonA> ok appaerntly move out is like putting your fist at a 90 and then pumping it down
<ProcyonA> but he tells you to go silently
<ProcyonA> you all head forward
<ProcyonA> these stacks are not empty
<ProcyonA> they aren't filled, though
<ProcyonA> many books are all over the place of course
<ProcyonA> you weave silently through the stacks
<ProcyonA> occasionally you see huge chunks of things taped off with caution tape or a umber of stacks knocked over
<ProcyonA> at one point you turn and see a balcony at a distance
<ProcyonA> you creep towards the balcony slowly
<ProcyonA> to your sides there are huge chunks of area taped off
<ProcyonA> you must go toward the balcony.
<ProcyonA> roll stealth
<Maddox> !roll 1d20-2
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-2 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {18}
<Maddox> ...
<ProcyonA> damn boy
<Maddox> ((Dice, why are you being nice today?))
<ProcyonA> youre a feline
<ProcyonA> ready for carmen's 1
<Maddox> ((You trying to win my favor over the Orange dice that killed my Middle Earth character yesterday?))
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+0 stealth
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+0 --> [ 1d20=16 ] | {16}
<ProcyonA> ok
<ProcyonA> you all creep forward until you reach the balcony.
<ProcyonA> the leader turns and gives a quiet gesture
<ProcyonA> you get a view of the balcony
<Carmen_Chapman> Has Carmen seen, or does she now see, anything through the Pearl Tinted VR?
<Carmen_Chapman> Sorry if you answered already I just forgot
<ProcyonA> oh shoot no i forgot i was interrupted
<ProcyonA> theres a very dull, but very large red pulse far below the ground slightly in the direction of the balcony and slightly to the direction in which you are walking
<ProcyonA> you approach the balcony, and farbelow you see a huge mass of spiderwebs
<Carmen_Chapman> So nothing on this floor?
<Maddox> Normal spiderwebs, or freaky monster-sized spiderwebs?
<ProcyonA> you cant see
<ProcyonA> its dark
<ProcyonA> nothing on this floor you think
* Carmen_Chapman points to her glasses, then points down below
* Carmen_Chapman maXe a "big" gesture with her hands
<ProcyonA> They all nod grimly
<ProcyonA> he writes on a pieec of paper and hands it to you "we know. we dont know what it is"
<ProcyonA> "we think there are three of them"
* Maddox stays silent, not wanting to freak out any of the bears.
<Maddox> ...or any of the spider monsters, for that matter.
* Carmen_Chapman nods
<ProcyonA> They continue moving
* Maddox and Carmen continue following
<ProcyonA> they turn away from the balcony and head toward a section where the ceiling is highter
<ProcyonA> there are now huge cases with innumerable drawers, some small, some huge instead of shelves
* TornSkippito continues moving, not wanting to make sound, despite his curiosity at the drawers
<ProcyonA> The leader holds up his fist and stops.
<ProcyonA> He pulls up his map and turns
* TornSkippito stops, looking around.
* TornSkippito is now known as Maddox
* Maddox stops, looking around.
<ProcyonA> What are you looking for? just the general area or specifics?
<Maddox> General area, any threats, etc.
<ProcyonA> Youre currently in a row of archives
<ProcyonA> its about two people wide, except occasionally a drawer is open and looted
<ProcyonA> every so often a shelf is knocked over or gouged or smashed
<ProcyonA> its fairly dark still
<ProcyonA> you hear scraping in the distance but nothing nearby
<ProcyonA> The leader stops and leans in to his second in command
* Carmen_Chapman continues keeping watch around on their floor with her Pearl Tinted VR
<Carmen_Chapman> ((given she's just wearing them, that means looking around pretty frequently to scan for anything nearby))
<ProcyonA> He whispers a bit to him.
<ProcyonA> Carmen theres a sleeping basilisk semi nearby but not close enough for it to be a problem
<ProcyonA> nothing else directly nearby
<ProcyonA> They finish whispering and the second jots down a message
<ProcyonA> he passes it back and those two head out, kind ofin the direction of the basilisk
* Carmen_Chapman taps one of their shoulders
* Carmen_Chapman maXe a slithering snake gesture with her hands and points off in the direXon of the basilisk
<ProcyonA> the note says "We're splitting up,  form a perimeter
<ProcyonA> He grits his teeth. he quickly runs up to the ahead party and informs them.
* Maddox remains silent, but readies telekinesis instances.
<ProcyonA> The leader does a silent "Fuck" gesture and comes back
<ProcyonA> He asks with a note "what can you do that's silent?"
<Carmen_Chapman> ((Question))
<Carmen_Chapman> Can Carmen use her chainsaw to attack, but not turn it on?
<ProcyonA> its a lightsaber right?
<Carmen_Chapman> Most of the alchemical modifications to it are contact effects like fire and light saber
<Carmen_Chapman> But maybe the original chainsaw part would do less damage
<ProcyonA> whats the current dice?
<ProcyonA> like
<ProcyonA> damage dice
<Carmen_Chapman> 1d12 base + 1d12 club upgrade + 1d12 lightsaber + 2d8 battery heart thing + 4d2 fire
<ProcyonA> ok remove the base and that seems to be fai
<ProcyonA> r
<Carmen_Chapman> Okay
* Carmen_Chapman nods
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out her chainsaw
* Carmen_Chapman points to the ripcord and shaXe her head no
* Carmen_Chapman points to the blade and nods her head yes
* Carmen_Chapman gives a thumbs up
<ProcyonA> Ok in your mind does the chainsaw have a "lightsaber turn on" button
<ProcyonA> and have you pressed it
<Carmen_Chapman> Good question haha
* Maddox just has both of his axesabers out but not turned on
<Carmen_Chapman> If MaddoX's aXes have to be turned on, then I'd guess this would too
<Carmen_Chapman> Considering they were alchemized from the same thing
<ProcyonA> ok
<ProcyonA> what about the fire?
<ProcyonA> buttons?
<Carmen_Chapman> Yeah I guess
<Carmen_Chapman> The heart thing is just an integrated feature
<Carmen_Chapman> The flaming club it was made from had a button on it to turn on the fire
<ProcyonA> You pull it out and there is a very faint heart beat sound
<ProcyonA> -1 to stealth while its out
* Carmen_Chapman puts it back away after she is done explaining with gestures what she means
<ProcyonA> They nod grimly and wave you forward
<ProcyonA> he taps his eyes where glasses would be and mouths "WHERE?"
<Carmen_Chapman> ((FYI, according to the PHB taking something out of your sylladex costs a minor action, but your strife specibus doesn't [hence the advantage of a specibus] as long as your aware and conscious to take it out))
* Carmen_Chapman points in the direXon of the basilisk signature, holding up fingers as an estimate of how many feet away
<ProcyonA> He shakes his head grimly and steps to the side
<ProcyonA> He waves you on
* Carmen_Chapman looX back at MaddoX
* Maddox nods, ready to go
* Carmen_Chapman heads with MaddoX in the direXon of the basilisk signature
<ProcyonA> Ok you find it nestled pretty good between two shelves that are pretty close to gether
<ProcyonA> its asleep, and has opened drawers to make a kind of bed
<Maddox> Is it snoring at all?
<ProcyonA> lmao the basilisk?
<ProcyonA> sure
<ProcyonA> and little puffs of fire are coming out the nostrils
<Maddox> attempting to time movement with the snores to cover any accidental noises, we sneak up to it.
<ProcyonA> roll stealth with a +2 for your tactics
<Maddox> !roll 1d20
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {11}
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+2 stealth
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+2 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {8}
<ProcyonA> ok it doesnt wake up, however its sleep is clearly disturbed
* Carmen_Chapman points to herself and MaddoX back and forth
* Carmen_Chapman lifts her arms up like she were holding a chainsaw and bring her arms down
* Carmen_Chapman points again to herself and MaddoX
* Carmen_Chapman points to MaddoX's aXes
* Maddox looks at carmen quizzically, not fully understanding, but then points to carmen's chainsaw and the basilisk.
* Carmen_Chapman holds up her fingers, counting down 3, 2, 1, then points to MaddoX's aXes and her hands, swinging them down at the same time
* Maddox nods
* Carmen_Chapman readies her hands to take out her chainsaw
* Carmen_Chapman holds up 3
* Carmen_Chapman holds up 2, pulling her chainsaw out
* Maddox moves his telekinetic instance towards the basilisk's head.
* Carmen_Chapman holds up 1, pressing the button to turn on the lightsaber part but not he fire since it would be immune
<ProcyonA> It hums to life
* Carmen_Chapman puts her fingers down, swinging the chainsaw down to attack the basilisk
* Maddox turns on his axesabers straight into the side of the basilisk, shoving his teleknetic instance down it's throat at the same time, stifling it's scream. He slices outwards with both axesabers.
<ProcyonA> roll dex and stealth
<Maddox> !roll 1d20-2 stealth
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-2 --> [ 1d20=13 ] | {11}
<Maddox> !roll 1d20 dex
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=3 ] | {3}
<ProcyonA> uh oh
<Maddox> I thought we were next to it :P
<Carmen_Chapman> What's the dex for?
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20-1 stealth
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-1 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {19}
<ProcyonA> the dex is to not knock shit over in tight quarters
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+0 dex
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+0 --> [ 1d20=9 ] | {9}
<Carmen_Chapman> Ah
<Maddox> I barely moved though
<Maddox> I had my axesaber handles against its side and turned them on, then moves them outwards
<ProcyonA> You both manage to get it silently, but as you slashed outward, you clipped the platform it was sitting on
<Maddox> rip
<ProcyonA> it pops into grist, but knocks over a rock sample
<ProcyonA> the rocks fall to the hard concrete ground
<ProcyonA> wait
<ProcyonA> you have tk right?
<ProcyonA> I'll let you roll to try to catch them before they fall
<Maddox> alright.
<Maddox> Is that an int check?
<ProcyonA> sure why not
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+5
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=14 ] | {19}
<ProcyonA> you manage to juuust get them before they hit the ground
<Maddox> I carefully set them down, then pick up my now-off axesabers that I dropped in the effort to summon four instances simultaneously.
* Maddox makes a phew motion
* Carmen_Chapman puts her chainsaw away
* Carmen_Chapman looX around for any other signatures
<ProcyonA> Nothing close.
* Carmen_Chapman nods
* Carmen_Chapman points to her glasses and gives a thumbs up
* Carmen_Chapman heads back to the bears
* Maddox follows
* Maddox puts away his axesabers
<ProcyonA> The leader slides by you and heads over to the shelves
<ProcyonA> Are you guys by him while doing this?
<Maddox> yes.
<Maddox> back with the group
<ProcyonA> He goes to a shelf adjacent to the one where the basilisk was
<ProcyonA> He pulls out a small stack of papers and puts them into a folder.
<ProcyonA> He gives a thumbs up
* Maddox thinks to himself, "That was it?"
* Carmen_Chapman gives a thumbs up back
* Carmen_Chapman waits to follow the bear
* Maddox also waits
<ProcyonA> As he walks back to rejoin the group, you hear a rumbling in the distance.
<ProcyonA> The rest of the bears grimace.
<ProcyonA> One of them writes you a note: "we'll have to take a different route. The thigns have woken up"
* Carmen_Chapman looX around in all direXons, including up and down, to see if she can pick up any signatures
<ProcyonA> The faint signatures that you saw off the balcony seem to be back now..
<ProcyonA> Not as strong but you can see them from here, through the artifact shelves
* Carmen_Chapman nods with a frown at the bear that wrote the note, tapping her glasses
* Maddox just watches and follows, ready to fight if it comes to that.
<ProcyonA> They stop you
<ProcyonA> They point at your glasses and make a shrug gesture
<ProcyonA> They mouth "WHAT DO YOU MEAN"
* Carmen_Chapman writes on the piece of paper
<Carmen_Chapman> *like heat glasses but can see through walls and stuff*
<Carmen_Chapman> *i can see those big monster things a ways off*
* Carmen_Chapman points to the leader, shrugging
<Carmen_Chapman> *where we going?*
<ProcyonA> *what is their range*
<ProcyonA> They wrote hastily
* Carmen_Chapman shrugs
<Carmen_Chapman> ((what can she estimate from the glasses?))
<ProcyonA> ((im really bad at estimating distances give me a sec))
<ProcyonA> ((i really should have seen this coming since I was the one who asked the question))
<Carmen_Chapman> ((haha))
<Maddox> ((lol))
<ProcyonA> ((ok... like 250 feet, unobstructed. maybe 100 when going through stuff))
<ProcyonA> ((https://www.prisonpolicy.org/zones/thousand_feet.html))
<ProcyonA> ((this website is amazing
<Carmen_Chapman> ((nice))
* Carmen_Chapman writes
<Carmen_Chapman> *dunno like 100-200 feet or something*
<Carmen_Chapman> *getting closer cuz i couldnt see them before but now i can*
* Carmen_Chapman gestures off in the direXon they're coming from
<ProcyonA> They huddle around the message and are suddenly moving with considerable urgency
* Maddox quickly follows
<ProcyonA> The ones with big flashlihts sling them over their shoulders from their backpacks.
<ProcyonA> The rest sheath their weapons.
<ProcyonA> The leader says, out loud "We're fucked. Emergency exit eight is closest. Let's go."
<ProcyonA> They start jogging away, the flashlihts in the rear
* Carmen_Chapman follows
* Maddox follows, not wanting to get lost
* Carmen_Chapman keeps looking around as they jog along to keep an eye out for monsters and the giant ones
<ProcyonA> Theyre making considerable noise now, nad the ambient scratching ad hissing starts to be replaced with slithering
* Maddox continues following, an off axesaber in each hand and a telekinetic instance ready.
<ProcyonA> After a bit of jogging, you leave the artifact area
<ProcyonA> You enter a huge, granite walled, domed room.
<ProcyonA> it echoes with every step.
* Maddox looks around nervously.
<ProcyonA> They switch night vision on and flashlights off, and sprint for the center of the room.
<ProcyonA> The slithering gets louder, as does the rumbling
* Carmen_Chapman looX around for signatures in the open room, following
<Maddox> are all flashlights now off?
<ProcyonA> There are some on the outsides, running at you
<ProcyonA> unless you guys have yours on
<Maddox> I think mine is on, but that's it.
<Carmen_Chapman> Carmen doesn't need one so she hasn't had one
<Maddox> and it's a cell phone flash LED
* Maddox joins them in the center of the room, then turns his light off.
<ProcyonA> The room is big, they havent gotten to the center yet.
<ProcyonA> From behind you, you hear shelves crashing
* Maddox says to Carmen, under his breath, let me know when they get close."
<ProcyonA> dozens of basilisks are slithering at you from entrances all around the circular room.
<ProcyonA> The closest are beginning to reach you guys at the back.
<ProcyonA> From the front, you hear someone shout "OFF"
<ProcyonA> there are several clicks as the bears turn off their night vision and theres a massive flash
<ProcyonA> Maddox, do you have night vision?
<ProcyonA> you dont right
<Maddox> nope.
<Maddox> I was blind while the lights were off.
<Carmen_Chapman> ((music that I've been listening to hehe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUvO5X1BIsY))
<ProcyonA> You see a basilisk eat shit as it looks directly into a magnesium flash blast
<ProcyonA> It falls and the group continues running
* Carmen_Chapman continues running with the group
<ProcyonA> Carmen, you get a lot of the light in your eyes, but your more advanced goggles dampen the bight light
<ProcyonA> Two basilisks approach the rear of the group and you two
<ProcyonA> simultaneously the front group approaches the center room
<ProcyonA> There is a commotion as they mount some kind of ladder
<ProcyonA> What do you do about the basilisks
<Maddox> Are lights still off?
<ProcyonA> Yes
<Maddox> And can they be easily heard?
<ProcyonA> Yeah
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out one of her lightworX, seeing that the flash earlier was effective
<ProcyonA> its starting to get loud as the crashes get louder but yeah you can hear them
* Carmen_Chapman ignites a lightworX, turns back, and chuX it at the approaching basilisks, before turning back and continuing to run
<ProcyonA> "Wait, what? Fuck, OFF!"
<Carmen_Chapman> Oh, did they turn them back on?
<Carmen_Chapman> I thought they were still off
<ProcyonA> I didn't specify youre right
<ProcyonA> They did turn them back on
<Carmen_Chapman> Ah, ok
<ProcyonA> OK in that case
<ProcyonA> You hear the clicsk just in time
<ProcyonA> THe grenade blinds the basilisks near you, and they stumble.
<ProcyonA> You finally reach the center
* Maddox bumps into whoever's in front of him, still blind.
<ProcyonA> The bears have climbed onto a platform about a feet in the air
<ProcyonA> It is tied to the ground with a rope, and carmen sees the bears beckon you on
* Carmen_Chapman grabs MaddoX's arm
<ProcyonA> maddox, take a point of damage as you run into the platform and hit yourself in the shins
<Carmen_Chapman> "Get up on this thing"
* Carmen_Chapman climbs up on
* Carmen_Chapman helps MaddoX up on if needed once she's on
<ProcyonA> One of the bear yells "CUT THE ROPE!" but it is drowned out by a crash
<ProcyonA> two massive underlings have smashed through the wall you came from
* Maddox , still entirely blind, scrambles onto the platform.
<ProcyonA> They look like huge, flying spiders, and theyre flying right at you
<ProcyonA> Maddox flops on
* Carmen_Chapman is amazed, now that she can see their signatures more clearly
<Carmen_Chapman> "Holy fucking shit theyre FLYING!"
<ProcyonA> "Oh fuck oh fuck cut the ROPE"
<ProcyonA> THe rope is on your side
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out an aXe and cuts the rope
<ProcyonA> One of th bears is going for it but fumblingwith a knife
<ProcyonA> The platform soars into the air
<ProcyonA> high above you a counterweight falls, but not fast enough
<ProcyonA> As the bugs approach, on of the bears yells "FLASH EM"
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out another lightworX, chucking it in the direXon the flying signatures are coming from
<Carmen_Chapman> "OFF!"
* Maddox shakes in fear a bit, not able to see anything that's going on and feeling the panic.
<ProcyonA> All the nightvision goggles click off as not only your bomb but the lights turn on
<ProcyonA> The bugs are illuminated, and are quite large and grotesque
<ProcyonA> they clearly hate the light, and are slowed by it
<ProcyonA> At this rate, though, they'll arrive before you reach the top of the dome, at the top of which you see a hole up into the darkness
<ProcyonA> What do you do
<Maddox> How fast is the platform climbing?
<ProcyonA> like elevator speed
<ProcyonA> i honestly dont know how fast taht is
<Maddox> depends on the elevator quite a bit :/
<ProcyonA> damn youre right
<ProcyonA> sorry ive been using the same elevator for months
<Maddox> 22mph is one of the fastest
<Carmen_Chapman> If it's a counterweight freefalling then it would probably also be accelerating
<Maddox> but 5mph-22 is the norm acccording to google
<Maddox> some are apparently 45?
<Maddox> huh
<ProcyonA> we'll say, at the mmoment, like 15-20
<Carmen_Chapman> "Anyone got any fuckin weapons that can reach em?"
<Carmen_Chapman> "Shit to lift us faster?"
<ProcyonA> "we don't carry weapons!"
<Carmen_Chapman> ((lol I have an idea))
<ProcyonA> ((dude im here for dumb ideas))
* Carmen_Chapman looX over the edge at the monsters, screaming at them
<Carmen_Chapman> "U BETTER STAY BACK U FUCKIN IDIOTS!!!"
<Carmen_Chapman> "WEVE BURNED BIGGER FUCKERS THAN U!"
<ProcyonA> Lmaoooo
<Carmen_Chapman> "COME ANY CLOSER N UR ASKIN FOR IT!!!"
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+13 intimidation

<ProcyonA> sweet rolls
<Carmen_Chapman> They are frightened and cannot willingly approach us
<ProcyonA> I'm gonna pull dm shenaningans and say they slow down, but still approach
<Carmen_Chapman> Yeah that's reasonable
<Carmen_Chapman> We are running away from them after all
<Carmen_Chapman> But those rolls though
<Carmen_Chapman> Frightening both of them was not that likely haha
<Carmen_Chapman> "U got anything MaddoX???"
<Maddox> "I can't even see them!"
<ProcyonA> The flashlifhts are still trained on them
<Carmen_Chapman> "Ur magic powers or somethin???"
<ProcyonA> you can see
<Maddox> Oh, the flashlights are on
<Maddox> totally missed that.
<Carmen_Chapman> "Can u like lift us or somethin?"
<Maddox> "This much weight? No way!"
* Maddox counts the bugs.
<ProcyonA> 2
<Maddox> how high above them are we now?
<ProcyonA> not far, maybe 5 feet? its the horizontal distance thats bigger
<ProcyonA> maybe 60
<ProcyonA> also carmen i totally goofed on the dsitance and lets retcon the range of the thermal goggs to "whatevers convenient"
<Maddox> I throw one of my still-off axesabers at the nearest bugs, holding onto it the entire time with my telekinetic instance.
<ProcyonA> hmm ok roll dex to throw
<ProcyonA> whats the distance on that?
<Maddox> when it's almost there, I turn it on.
<Maddox> I mean, it's a telekinetic attack, which has the range "sight"
<Maddox> sort of.
<ProcyonA> oh nice
<ProcyonA> then dex
<Maddox> !roll 1d20
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=15 ] | {15}
<Maddox> if I'm allowed to add INT, +5
<ProcyonA> I'll allow it
<Maddox> cool, so 20
<ProcyonA> The massive body of the bug doesn't have time to dodge as you turn it on, and it impales it in the thorax
<ProcyonA> it loses height, and only its friend continues to appraoch
<Maddox> I pull the Axesaber back with my telekinetic instance, trying to swipe it on the way back.
<Maddox> !roll 1d20+5 to-hit?
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+5 --> [ 1d20=7 ] | {12}
<Maddox> Hit or miss, after it passes the second bug, I turn it back off again.
<ProcyonA> It bounces off the armor of its flank, and you don't manage to hur it at all.
<ProcyonA> Youre almost up, but the bug finally manages to reach you
* Carmen_Chapman decaptchalogues a barrel of fish oil, heaving it at the bug as it approaches
<ProcyonA> ooh ok lets see where this goes
<ProcyonA> It smashes into the bug, coating it in the foul smelling fish oil
<ProcyonA> it pushes through, only somewhat perturbed
<Carmen_Chapman> "Fuck"
<Carmen_Chapman> "I only got one lightworX left should I use it?"
<Maddox> "Yes!"
* Maddox 's telekientic instance returns the off axesaber to his hand
* Carmen_Chapman pulls out the lightworX at the ready
* Carmen_Chapman looX to the bears and the leader for confirmation
<ProcyonA> They are looking at you in anticipation
* Carmen_Chapman nods, chucking her last LightworX at the approaching flying spider bug monster
<Carmen_Chapman> "OFF!"
<ProcyonA> It hits it, and all the fish oil ignites
<ProcyonA> The flame lights up the room along with the flash grenade, and the bug screams and loses height
<ProcyonA> It drops to the floor by its friend and rolls to extinguish the flames, and the last thing you see as you escape into the darkness of the tube are dozens and dozens of mosnters surrounding the flaming body of the bug
<ProcyonA> The night vision goggles tick on
* Carmen_Chapman readies her chainsaw for wherever they might be going up to
<ProcyonA> The leader says "we need to update escape systems four and twelve. They won't work against flying enemies"
<ProcyonA> The platform grinds to a halt, the tube in which it was traveling widens a bit and you find yourselves in a dry, empty sewer
* Maddox looks around, glad there are flashlights again.
* Carmen_Chapman cheX the vicinity for signatures
<ProcyonA> Nothing.
<ProcyonA> The bears trudge to a ladder nearby and climb up it.
<Maddox> "Did you get what you needed?"
<ProcyonA> "Yes." the leader snaps
<ProcyonA> He climbs up the ladder and out a manhole.
<ProcyonA> THe bears follow.
* Maddox frowns at the snap, though lets it go. Everyone's stressed, after all
<ProcyonA> One of the final ones to climb stops at the bottom.
* Maddox follows up the ladder
* Carmen_Chapman also follows
<ProcyonA> "Sorry about our boss. He's headstrong. Brilliant but headstrong. He doesn't like things to change if he can't control it
* Maddox nods
* Carmen_Chapman frowns
<Carmen_Chapman> "Obviously"
<ProcyonA> "We all appreciate you saving our asses. That was the first time we've seen those things"
<ProcyonA> "And before it happens, I'm gonna warn you"
<ProcyonA> "he will blame you for this. We're all on your side though"
<ProcyonA> "I can get you your map."
<ProcyonA> He climbs the ladder and enters into the sunlight
* Carmen_Chapman gives a single snort/huff of laughter/frustration, and follows
* Maddox continues frowning, and follows
<Carmen_Chapman> Is there any XP or grist we should calculate for the end of that?
<ProcyonA> yeah take one titachnid's worth of exp, no grist
<Maddox> cool
<Carmen_Chapman> cool
<Maddox> that brings the total to?
<Carmen_Chapman> There there's that XP and grist from the basilisk earlier that I already put in the chat
<Maddox> I'll look for that.
<Carmen_Chapman> 2800 XP for one titachnid
<Maddox> eyy
<Maddox> and another 75 for basilisk?
<Maddox> !roll 1d6 hp up
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d6 --> [ 1d6=4 ] | {4}
<Maddox> !roll 1d4 pp up
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d4 --> [ 1d4=4 ] | {4}
<Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d6+3
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d6+3 --> [ 1d6=6 ] | {9}
<Carmen_Chapman> What level is Maddox now?
* Maddox climbs to a new rung: Catacomb Crawler!
<Maddox> 14
<Carmen_Chapman> Carmen's not quite there
