Always try to Dispense with Displays (I.e. hide manefestation)
(DC 15 + level of the power Concentration check)
Always hold breath when within an area of effect containing smoke.
Always stow equipment.
Share all buffs with Quartz when in range.

Roll a 1d4 die. This determines which of the following tactics to use. Roll a 1d6+4 die. This is the number of rounds to use this tactic for. After that duration, roll the 1d4 die and repeat.

Buffs: In general, try buffing Animal Affinity-Dex (3pp), Force Screen (1 pp), Offensive Precognition (1 pp), and Offensive Prescience (1pp). Use any remaining pp for entangling ectoplasms as needed. If stealth comes up under the random tactics first, don't buff Prescience, instead do Chameleon (3pp).

More Specific Tactics:
1: Ranged: Valen mounts on Lightning. Quartz drives Lightning. Stay at range and shoot, using Rapid Shot when possible.

2: Stealth: Break LOS, hide. Attempt to snipe with bow, or hide, fire, and move to total cover.

3: Melee: Mount up on Lightning, charge opponent with Greatsword. Dismount, and flank. Quartz has Lightning full attack. Valen attacks with Greatsword.

4: Skirmish: Utilize Spring attack to move in and out of melee range. Use Entangling Ectoplasm to slow the opponent down. Sunder any ranged weapons.

Modifications:
If it helps, use the delay action: I.e. if Valen is shooting into melee, delay until after Lightning has made a standard attack and move, or after Lightning has used the Withdraw manuever so as to avoid the -4 penalty.

The morning after the banquet that Valen and Journey first met, Valen is summoned into Lia Mortiniellia's chambers.

"This won't take long, good Sir Valen. I have noticed that the staff have been feeling...ignored in the last few weeks. I think a few of them are even feeling un-challenged in their work. There is definitely room for improvement on their part...but they don't understand how. I require your services to help guide our staff and inspire them to work harder. Why don't you take a group of them hunting in the local countryside? I hear there are more than a few that hold themselves to be amateur sportsmen...I'm sure if you take down something good, they'll start working extra hard to earn your attention and respect."

With that, Lia smiled and awaited Valen's thoughts on this idea.


I'm not going to post again for a while. I'll leave it to Rauul to RP Lia's saying goodbye & the rest of the quest. Good luck Valen!
Rauul

03-08-07, 04:25 AM		Lia smiled and pointed to the chair, "Sir Valen, the small farms around the area, have been Plagued with some serious problems, and i am thinking that you may be able to use these problems to train our Agents"

Lia Continues After taking another drink of fine wine "Some of the Woodsman and hunters have been found wandering around aimlessly Blind as a Bat, all say they saw a goddess come out of the woods, and just the other day a Farmer was found dead in the field where he was cutting down some trees with a smile on his face no less. Would this be something you can deal with. I fear the Elves or the Wood folk may not like the woodsman clearing the trees for fire wood for the upcoming cold winter"
Hirumajoe

03-08-07, 08:08 AM		I'm thinking maybe I should chance Valen's color to something other than blue. Sometimes switching between Lia and him gets confusing when reading posts. Actually, didn't Lia start out green or something...

Valen considers his response for a moment. "While I admit I might not be the best to take the staff out on a company retreat, tending to do my best work alone, I am probably one of your best qualified to deal with your problems at the same time. I have trained a fair bit with the fair folk and am knowledgable in their skills and tactics. A few of which I've borrowed for my own."

He again pauses letting his mind wander through potential opponents, situations, and tactics. "A smile on their face while cutting down trees in a field? Thats certainly not a standard elven calling card. But definitely a fey one. Assuming I can engage them outside of their natural habitat, I should have the upper hand. Otherwise... things may get ugly. I'll see what I can do."
Rauul

03-08-07, 04:19 PM		Lia Smiles "Good Good you can leave as soon as your ready, this will be a good training exercise, I have faith in you, and i know you will do well to train the Staff"

Lia gets up and pats Valen on the shoulder "Your will do well"


Since i had to roll the encounters.. i rolled and with your nature lore, with the desc Lia told you, you know this is a Nymph, away from it's homeland you know and proably trying to set up a new home...
Hirumajoe

03-08-07, 08:45 PM		Two questions:
First: How do you want to handle this? Normal monster fight where I send you a complete set of tactics and you just run it from there?

Second: Which map is this going to be on?

Thanks.
Rauul

03-09-07, 12:44 AM		As Lia is leaving a messenger arrives and they talk in hushed tones off to the side, you can hear things like Nymph Captured, and Drow Spotted, not that your trying to listen in mind you...


Lia Comes back and sits down. Looking slightly pale "Well it seems the Nymph was captured in the woods.. But now we have a New problem, It seems as though a party of Drow were spotted in the City, and as these are best handled by you. maybe you can train the staff by showing them how to best destroy the foul drow!"


Ok seems as though i can arrange the Missions to acually be non random.. so here is the change.. All thats known is that there is a large Web over the entrance of the Abandoned temple.. you can make your own judges from there..

Map will be the temple Map, with one change.. the Center isn't lava and a statue.. it's a HOLE unknown depth (till you can check it)
Rauul

03-11-07, 12:47 AM		Lia gets up and pats Valen on the shoulder "You will do well My Friend.."
Hirumajoe

03-11-07, 02:13 PM		Valen answered with a simple "Thank you M'lady." and proceeded out the door.

------

With his recruits in tow, Valen made his way to the designated training area. An old religious center outside the walls of Gladius. Abandoned for who knows how many years. And now reporting evidence of Drow in residence.

Looking back at the staff he sighed. In a mental conversation with Quartz, he continued to complain. "These aren't soldiers. Look at 'em. They're paper pushers and blue color workers. They couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

"Oh? And you started out born knowing how to hold a bow? I think not."

"At least I know how to fight now. If we run into a Drow patrol unprepared out here, they're not going to last a minute.

"Then you perhaps should, you know, do your job and keep them safe instead of being a bitter old grump and complaining to a piece of rock..." After that, the conversation fell off to silence as Valen focused on the task at hand.

Soon after, while approaching the temple, he spotted tracks. Fresh ones.

: I don't suppose I could like make a take 10 track check to figure out how many Drow I'm up against? Or maybe just be told outright? :)
Rauul

03-12-07, 05:46 PM		Looking at the tracks Valen notes that there seems to be 1 set of Female drow prints, and what looks to be 1 set of prints from LARGE spider, along the lines of 500-700 lbs spider, The entrance's to the temple is Completely covered with webs, Windows and doors.. the webbing is still fresh and very sticky!



Oh i gave you a take 20 on tracking, just cause you will notice you can't get into the temple without alerting the inhabitance to your arrival (it's acually a CR 5 encounter, so i have to give them a fighting chance)
Hirumajoe

03-13-07, 04:15 AM		While I appreciate the sentiment for a lower EL encounter, I believe the encounter has to be ECL 7 (to match Valen) for all three fights. Its buried in the Guild Hall thread unfortunately.


Missions and 3-Fight Cycle: Missions are part of the 3FC which means we have to impose some restrictions. The EL of a quest is always adapted to the ECL of the characters. If one character is on a mission, the EL is equal to his ECL. If two or three characters are on a mission, the EL applied to each one individually!
Example: two ECL 5 characters are missioning. The EL is 5 for both which means the Questlord picks one EL 5 encounter for each character, and sends all that against the PCs in one battle. Or let's say, ECL 8, 8, and 9 are on a mission. The Questlord picks one EL 8, one EL 8, and one EL 9, and sends all these against the group.


Sorry to be adding more work for you.

Combat: Monstrous spiders use their poisonous bite to subdue or kill prey.

Special Attacks: Web (Ex): Both types of monstrous spiders often wait in their webs or in trees, then lower themselves silently on silk strands and leap onto prey passing beneath. A single strand is strong enough to support the spider and one creature of the same size.
Web-spinning spiders can cast a web eight times per day. This is similar to an attack with a net but has a maximum range of 50 feet, with a range increment of 10 feet, and is effective against targets up to one size smaller that the spider (see page 102 in the Player's Handbook for details on net attacks). The web anchors the target in place, allowing no movement.
An entangled creature can escape with a successful Escape Artist check or burst it with a Strength check. Both are standard actions whose DCs are listed in the following table:

Spider sizeEscape DC Break DC Hit Points
Large 26 32 12

Web-spinning spiders often create sheets of sticky webbing from 5 to 60 feet square, depending on the size of the spider. They usually position these sheets to snare flying creatures but can also try to trap prey on the ground. Approaching creatures must succeed at a Spot check (DC 20) to notice a web; otherwise they stumble into it and become trapped as though by a successful web attack. Attempts to escape or burst the webbing gain a +5 bonus if the trapped creature has something to walk on or grab while pulling free. Each 5-foot section has the hit points listed on the table, and sheet webs have damage reduction 5/fire.

A monstrous spider can move across its own sheet web at its climb speed and can determine the exact location of any creature touching the web.

Poison (Ex): Bite, Fortitude save (DC 16), initial and secondary damage 1d6 Strength.

03-27-07, 12:48 AM		Valen Sky, looked around the desecrated temple and smiles.. 1 dead drow and a giant spider, not bad, as the workers come in and clean out the temple of bodys and starts cleaning, as Valen starts inventory, he hears one of the crew yell that there is something moving down in the hole, as a bolt flys out of the hole and hits the worker, and he crumbles to the ground..

Valen Sky moves towards the fallen guy, and peers down the hole and sees darkness and hears the clicking of legs..

Valen Sky groans as he realizes whats down in the hole.. a Drider, a creation of Lolth, an Abomination of nature it's self.. This thing couldn't be allowed to exist..

Valen orders his people to secure the building as he prepairs to lower himself down into the darkness of the cavern below..

03-27-07, 02:39 AM		Valen Sky searchs through the corpse as the clean up crew arrives, and secures the are, he finds a note.

Written in Undercommon, the note reads "Lucinda, Secure the temple with lokee, and use Lolths servants, Mother will be arriving into Gladus soon to arrange to have 3 patrols to kills any elves in the city!, Long live Lolth!"

One of the workers come over and tells Lord Valen "Sir there is a City entrance over in the corner, this is a newly made tunnel and the men are frightened to go near, as this used to be a lair to a dragon..."

Lord Valen eyes the tunnel, and spots it going out into the LOY controled sector, hearing the crys and screams of people dieing, he runs to lightning and goes to protect the city!
