I think, currently, Ryco is the only one with healing capabilities so I'll wait to see the outcome of Shadow's turn before weighing my options.

Yyyyyeeeeaaaah I'm not very well versed in Pathfinder rules at all, but I'm preeeetty sure I'm 100% dead lol
Sep 11, 2017 7:41 pm
The first attack put me at 3 HP. The second put me at -26. My con score is 13.
I'm super dead.
I don't know exactly how one uses hero points, but I think it's probably outside the realm of their normal use to bring a dead guy back to life?

Can make a new character, possibly known to Archie, who accompanies the gnome back when he returns with Arktos.
Can wait and see if they resurrect you.
Can do ...? Something else?
Sep 11, 2017 7:56 pm
Archie would be happy to bring a buddy (or buddies, looking at these rolls, lol) back with him.

....also I'm just now noticing that monks can attempt Stunning Strike more than once a day and very much regretting not doing that on my turn.

OOC:
If you're in Melee when you cast a spell, you need to cast defensively in the hopes of not getting an attack of opportunity against you. Jabes.plays.RPG says:
Depending on how this goes I may end up needing a new character too.Sep 12, 2017 11:24 am
PRD says:
To cast a spell, you must concentrate. If something interrupts your concentration while you're casting, you must make a concentration check or lose the spell. When you make a concentration check, you roll d20 and add your caster level and the ability score modifier used to determine bonus spells of the same type. Clerics, druids, and rangers add their Wisdom modifier. Bards, paladins, and sorcerers add their Charisma modifier. Finally, wizards add their Intelligence modifier. The more distracting the interruption and the higher the level of the spell you are trying to cast, the higher the DC (see Table: Concentration Check DCs). If you fail the check, you lose the spell just as if you had cast it to no effect.If you pass the Concentration check, you don't take an attack of opportunity and you successfully cast the spell. If you fail, you provide an AoO sand lose the spell.
Alternatively, you can stay out of Melee range for a round and cast the spell while holding the charge, then deliver the spell the next round without provoking any attacks of opportunity.
Also, if you were to heal Urthask (currently at -7 HP), but only manage to heal 4 hp, he would stop dying. He'd still be at -3 HP and unconscious, but any sort of magical healing will stabilize him :)

[ +- ] holding a charge
Holding the Charge: If you don't discharge the spell in the round when you cast the spell, you can hold the charge indefinitely. You can continue to make touch attacks round after round. If you touch anything or anyone while holding a charge, even unintentionally, the spell discharges. If you cast another spell, the touch spell dissipates. You can touch one friend as a standard action or up to six friends as a full-round action. Alternatively, you may make a normal unarmed attack (or an attack with a natural weapon) while holding a charge. In this case, you aren't considered armed and you provoke attacks of opportunity as normal for the attack. If your unarmed attack or natural weapon attack normally doesn't provoke attacks of opportunity, neither does this attack. If the attack hits, you deal normal damage for your unarmed attack or natural weapon and the spell discharges. If the attack misses, you are still holding the charge.
[ +- ] stable characters and recovery
On the character's next turn, after being reduced to negative hit points (but not dead), and on all subsequent turns, the character must make a DC 10 Constitution check to become stable. The character takes a penalty on this roll equal to his negative hit point total. A character that is stable does not need to make this check. A natural 20 on this check is an automatic success. If the character fails this check, he loses 1 hit point. An unconscious or dying character cannot use any special action that changes the initiative count on which his action occurs.
Characters taking continuous damage, such as from an acid arrow or a bleed effect, automatically fail all Constitution checks made to stabilize. Such characters lose 1 hit point per round in addition to the continuous damage.
You can keep a dying character from losing any more hit points and make him stable with a DC 15 Heal check.
If any sort of healing cures the dying character of even 1 point of damage, he becomes stable and stops losing hit points.
Healing that raises the dying character's hit points to 0 makes him conscious and disabled. Healing that raises his hit points to 1 or more makes him fully functional again, just as if he'd never been reduced to 0 or lower. A spellcaster retains the spellcasting capability she had before dropping below 0 hit points.
A stable character who has been tended by a healer or who has been magically healed eventually regains consciousness and recovers hit points naturally. If the character has no one to tend him, however, his life is still in danger, and he may yet slip away.

Got it, thank you. Just to see if healing is required right this second or not, Urthask has Con 14, meaning he still has a bit of ways to go before dying completely, sans any attention to him. Correct?
Sep 12, 2017 11:50 am
As long as he's ignored, yes. He still has 7 rounds of seeing the light before he dies.
Sep 12, 2017 12:06 pm
Good to know, I think in that case, I'm leaning more towards making him leave melee and hope the dice work in our favor for once. Would it only be Gongar and Shalelu getting OA's or does it not apply to Shalelu since she is range in melee?
Eh, thinking about it, I think that is my only option. I don't want to heal Urthask and risk healing him to positive, making him a threat again with a lot lower HP.

Well, the bugbear only has 4 hp left. If you have ANYTHING that will do damage, just throw it! :P

Ryco uses a d4 and has a -2 str modifier, I can't kill a beetle if I wanted to.

Of some kind? Is that a LUTE BOW I hear?
Also, now that that gut-wrenching battle is done:
...but he didn't brace himself enough.
The first hit connected solidly with his shoulder, shattering the joint and causing him to lose all control over the limb, letting the sword drop to the floor with a clang. Xandak stumbled backwards a bit and dropped to one knee, his upper body exploding in pain and his vision beginning to swim.
The second hit him right in the chest, causing most of his ribs to break, and puncturing several internal organs. He flew backward, tumbling across the floor several times before coming to a stop in a broken heap.
In the few brief seconds he still lived, his sight gave way to a vision of himself as a young boy, standing in the sacked house he had called his home, staring in disbelief at the corpses of his family in the wake of the giant raid. He heard himself swear vengeance on the attackers, through blind rage and hot tears. But soon this image faded away into nothingness as well. Faced with the overwhelming knowledge that he would never be able to fulfill that promise of vengeance, Xandak's mouth opened and he uttered a strained sentence as he stared into nothingness, the first words he had spoken out loud since taking up his vows in the House of Blue Stones:
"I'm... sorry."
And with that, Xandak Alaertos, champion of Irori, breathed his last.I have to give a standing ovation or something for this masterpiece.

Xandak's concerns for the outcome of the battle eased up a bit when he managed to land two solid blows on the bugbear. Allowing himself to use the sword might have been a good idea after all. His confidence growing, he braced himself for Bruthzamus' retaliation....but he didn't brace himself enough.
