He Knight fails to overcome the creature's resistance...
Plyf fires off a series of arrows and, unfortunately, none of them hit.
Tratain, last round, took two hits of 22 and 21. This round, he continues attacking and four out of five of his strikes are successfully, although no criticals.
Echlhin's berry-bomb explodes and envelopes the Guardian in fire. The Knight takes half a second to celebrate before watching the construct twist and turn, avoiding most of the blast, and then simply shrugging off the rest of it...
Monthor, as usual, hits and does do some damage [Monthor's action requires moving within AoO reach of the Construct, because Monthor doesn't have sufficient reach to hit the Guardian any other way]. While Monthor succeeds, he opens himself up to an attack from the Guardian and risks being blinded yet again. [22 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 7 Electric Damage to Monthor - Monthor make a Fortitude Save DC 33 or be Blinded]
Dwight fires some arrows off at the Guardian, only the last one hits and the construct doesn't seem to mind it. [Only one attack roll for the first four arrows? Why was that? Jeff is confused!]
---
By now, the lightning is completely commonplace and the Knights ignore it hitting the Walls of Force.
Seeing it's partner take so many hits, the Black Guardian focuses on the biggest target: Tratain. Another spell hits the Knight: Spellcraft DC 21 Highlight to display spoiler: {Greater Dispel Magic}. Again, his Counterspell Ring saves him the trouble it might cause. Unfortunately, that means his Counterspells are all used up when the Guardian casts a normal version of the same spell: Spellcraft DC 21 Highlight to display spoiler: {Greater Dispel Magic}. Tratain: Highlight to display spoiler: {Tratain loses Greater Magic Weapon, Magic Vestment [Fortification], Shield of Faith, Righteous Might, and Divine Favor. For all spells, I assumed a Caster Level of 19 except for Magic Vestment where I assumed CL 20. If this is incorrect, see the bottom of my post for a list of the Dispel Checks so you can recheck. Lemmie know what square you want Tratain to end up in.}
Then, the Black Guardian moves to floating 20 feet in the air next to the Gold Guardian.
The Gold Guardian again has no troubles with the Grease.
The Gold Guardian, decides that Monthor is the better target this time. The dwarf is immediately hit by another fist of lightning. [18 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 6 Electric Damage to Monthor - Monthor make a Fortitude Save DC 33 or be Blinded]
The Knights are used to the Gold Guardian healing some of the minor scratches that have been done, but for what seems to be the first time the construct looks damaged. It is still standing, so that's a problem, but at least some of the Knights are having success...

Tratain's Ring is able to Block the First Dispel Magic cast at him by the construct, and Tratain is able to recognize the spell being cast again (Spellcraft 22) and activates his Reflecting shield and turns the spell back upon the Black Guardian. (Tratains Shield once per day works like the spell turning spell.)
Tratain continues attacking the Gold Guardian in hopes that it will fall. It seems almost indestructible and the Black Guardian casts alot of Dispel's around so one needs to fall very soon.

[Monthor is, indeed, blind. His SR has not been sufficient to protect him from the impressive CL. While his Armor is eating up the Electricity damage the blindness is another effect altogether.]
Vedik finally manages to get rid of the Dimensional Lock in the room.
Plyf's single arrow hits the Construct.
Each of Tratain's warhammer smashes are succesful. And the Knight also throws the Greater Dispel right back at the Black Construct, whose Air Walk fails and he slowly floats to the ground.
Monthor is blinded, but the dwarf still swings the best he can. Two swings clearly miss, one more misses because of his blindness, and the other two hit.
Dwight, try as he might, misses altogether.
Echlhin summons 3 Huge Earth Elementals [I'm not sure where you want them placed in such a small space. I put two of them on?]. The closest of which provokes an attack from the Gold Guardian [Hit AC 55 - 18 Bludgeoning Damage - 14 Electric Damage - Fort Save DC 33 or Blinded]

The Gold Guardian is on its last legs, but is not dead yet. Monthor, being right in front of it, faces the fists [21 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 17 Electric Damage to Monthor] and [22 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 13 Electric Damage to Monthor]. Since the dwarf is already blind, he doesn't have to worry about such things.
And then, thanks to Vedik's removal of the Dimensional Lock, the Gold Guardian casts a Quickened spell and reappears 30 feet north and 20 feet in the air. Spellcraft DC 19 Highlight to display spoiler: {Dimension Door}.
With nothing blocking it from hitting Monthor, the Black Guardian joins in against the dwarf. 17 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 9 Sonic Damage to Monthor - Monthor make a Fortitude Save DC 33 or be Deafened] and [19 Bludgeoning Damage to Monthor, 10 Electric Damage to Monthor]

Being frustrated his arrows have no effect yet again, he bullets himself to Monthor's aid.

OOC: Plyf is correct, i didnt have sheet in front of me.
Plyf watches all the spells flying around and the damage done to Monthor, she knows, something has to change now! When she can see the guardian falling back to the earth, the rogue turned bard is glad at the reprieve.
If someone mentions, the lock upon her Boots of Teleport is perhaps gone, she activates them and teleports over behind the burnt out crystal and removes it from the pedistal, if possible.
If someone doesn't mention the lock though, she will unleash even more arrows in an attempt to save their dwarven comrade, if he isn't dead that is.
Holding actions until others post.

Couple of quick questions and comments....
I thought the elementals wouldn't come in until the start of my next round, so I'm not sure how the gold construct would get an attack of opportunity. If they did come into play, they should have gotten an attack, per wording of the spell, unless I am remembering it wrong. Also I should be able to target on the other side of the wall by summoning one up in the air and it will have to take some falling damage, or at least that makes sense to me. Thoughts?
May I ask what soaked up the fire damage that wasn't avoided?

The Gold Guardian has taken just too many blows. Echlhin's berries, Monthor and Tratain's swings, Dwight and Plyf's bows. It is all too much for the Teucri Construct and, without any sort of warning, the shimmering light on it fades to nothing and it simply stands in front of the Knights, inert.
The Black Guardian, either not noticing or not caring that it's partner is down, strikes at Tratain. 17 Bludgeoning Damage to Tratain, 9 Sonic Damage to Tratain - Tratain make a Fortitude Save DC 33 or be Deafened] and [19 Bludgeoning Damage to Tratain, 10 Electric Damage to Tratain - Tratain make a Fortitude Save DC 33 or be Blinded].

The Construct is able to hurt the protector some but he is able to fight off the Blindness and Deafness. Tratain then defensively casts Mass Heal on the Party makeing sure that everyone is all healed up incase there are anymore surprises in store for the group.
(Everyone Heals 210 Points, Cures Blindness and Deafness among other things if you are still suffering from it.)
Tratain also uses his protector Powers to Intercept the first attack at Monthor from the Black Guardian should it attack the dwarf.
He calls out "Try and get the Crystal over to where its supposed to be, Who knows how long the other guardian will stay down if at all."

Plyf unleashes more arrows into the Teucri guardian, yet again only one finds it's mark.

Monthor's first two attacks beat up on the Black Guardian.

Tratain Heals everyone, removing Blindness and being an all around awesome guy.
Plyf uses her bow to attack the Black Guardian. The only arrow that strikes is ignored by the construct.

Two quick questions?
OOC: Is the crystal the size of a canteloupe or honeydew melon? Smaller or larger?
Is the old crystal on the pedestal just resting on top or it is fastened down?
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) d20+32=40 ; Tuesday December 15th, 2009 6:05:09 PM
Dwight hears Tratain call to urgency, and feels the healing waves course through his body. He calls out, "Plyf, follow me!" then mumbles his command word.
(Activate his boots of teleport to AK9, directly behind pedestal to be within arms reach of the old crystal.--standard action)
He then, if possible, attempts to kick or push the old crystal away by ramming himself/broomstick into it. (OOC: I'm not really considering this an attack, but a move action/charging type thing. I imagine the pedastal to be a small column about waist high, which the crystal is sitting on it, as carved heads are often found in museums. Dwight is hoping to bump the crystal off using his own momentum.)
Between teleporting and blinking, I'm not sure if Dwight could be considered 'hidden', but after the noise/screams of pain he makes, I doubt it would matter.
OOC: Ignore the roll, I had intend to shoot the crystal off, but don't believe I could teleport and attack this round. Thus the body blow. -------------------

Plyf easily reaches out and touches the dwarf, half knowing what was going to happen. Once the have relocated themselves, Plyf immedietly knows with her Stonecunning if anything is out of sorts with the surrounding stone. If she can see something out of sorts, she will think perhaps that will power down the complex or allow the crystal to be replaced.

I am not sure which of the Knights cast it, but they certainly had the caster level to do so. As such. I've those of you attempting to move to the gem have been moved slightly to account for this.
Vedik attempts to Maze the Guardian, but fails.
Monthor flies after the Construct.
Dwight attempts to teleport to the dias. He brings Plyf with him. The Boots activate properly, but for some reason the Knights do not teleport. Spellcraft Dc 26: Highlight to display spoiler: {There must be something blocking the teleport in that specific area. Either another Dimensional Lock (which seems unlikely) or perhaps an Antimagic Field}
Echlhin and Tratain stay where they are and consider the finer things in life.
---
The Black Guardian, who perhaps had forgotten that it's Air Walk had been dispelled, falls into the darkness. For a moment, the Knights think that may be it. But then it appears, only slightly worse for wear, at AC/AD-8/9, just in time to be blasted by the same lighting that travels from the bottom of AD upwards.
[Thanks Joe for reminding me that Air Walk was gone and that the Guardian was attempting to stand on nothingness]

Already being 30' up, Dwight follows Vedik and Monthor's lead over the northern Wall of Force. He then lowers himself to 10' above the ground to Z4.
Dwight then casts Detect Magic to determine the type/range of magic extending from the pedastal.

Plyf, with her bow, will run over to AB 15, to shoot around the edge next round.
TratainCurrent Spells HP 249/249 AC 44 Thursday December 17th, 2009 8:36:02 PM
Tratain moves south and tries to squeeze through the wall of force and the real wall. He also attempts to look down and see how deep the pit is, and what exactly it looks like where the crystal needs to go.
He says "We need some way to get over there to the place where we put the crystal that isn't dependent on magic so that construct can't dispel it."
No Surprises Here... [Round 10] [DM Jeff] Friday December 18th, 2009 3:23:30 AM Vedik makes another try for stopping the Construct, but spells are proving hardly helpful.
Dwight attempts to Detect Magic to check out the surrounding area. The same problems he has been facing pop up and he can't tell what kind of magic is around. All schools. None. It is neigh impossible to determine anything. But the pedastal... It might be completely empty magic. He can't be sure.
Plyf prepares for the next round.
Tratain moves south in an attempt to squeeze through the opening left by Vedik, but he seems to be too big...
---
The Black Guardian, instead of making a move towards the Knights, simply casts an Air Walk on himself and gets ready for the next round...

No map update. If you said you were somewhere, you are there.
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) d20+12=15 ; Friday December 18th, 2009 8:20:04 AM
Hoping to make progress this round towards the crystal, Dwight floats back up and angles himself towars the crystal. He then loads his bow with a special filamented arrow. (I think AA6 is as close as I can get to still see the pedestal --- need line of sight)
Taking careful aim, Dwight attempts to grapple the pedestal.
DC for Light Grapple: 10 + 2 per 10' = 20 Use Rope Check: 15+1(hasted)=16 (oh, that so sucks!)
"I'll try again next round," he calls out already reaching for his next filamented arrow.

He does so, taking the long way to avoid an attack of opportunity, and winds up above the abyss, but out of the Guardian's reach. [Wall of Force blocked your previous shot. So I had Dwight take a double move.]
Vedik enlarges Monthor.
Monthor teleports over to the Guardian AFTER it's action.
Plyf misses.

The same lightning that has blasted down AD hits the Guardian again. It continues not to care. Dwight finds himself thankful that it runs along 10 this round and not 8...
The Black Guardian, having no close targets, casts a spell at hits Plyf with a bolt of lightning. That lightning also arcs to Tratain...

Dwight hovers over the abyss, he floats just a little, pushing his luck but set on the task of getting to the pedestal. Sitting 35' up from the others, floating over the abyss, he aims for the back wall with his grappling arrow (AL8).

[Hope everyone had a good break. I'm not quite ready to be back in the real world yet, but it appears to be forcing the issue. Alas.
No worries for the lack of posting on anyone's part during the break. It was holidays and we all deserved some time off.]
Vedik tries some more telekinesis, but he can't get beyond the Guardian's resistance.
Echlhin moves and commands the Guardians down the pit.
Dwight has set up what appears to be a laundry line going from himself to the wall above the pedastal... He determines that the Antimagic stops just before the platform begins.
Monthor hits with his first four attacks, although none are critically successful...
Plyf moves behind the wall, not quite understanding what Dwight wants of her.
---
The Knights, through various means, discover that the pit is 50 feet deep. Otherwise, it appears to be completely boring and unworthy of attention.
What is worthy of everyone's attention are the blasts of lightning that run along AD and 10 [Monthor [SR Check 21], Echlhin [SR Check 25], and Tratain [SR Check 28] each take 37 Electric Damage - Reflex Save DC 25 for half] and [[b]Monthor [SR Check 26] take 34 Electric Damage - Reflex Save DC 25 for half]. The Black Guardian is not bothered by the lightning in the slightest.
Now Monthor is open to attack by the Guardian and is hit twice by the fists of thunder [Monthor takes 22 Bludgeoning Damage and 13 Sonic Damage AND Monthor takes 19 Bludgeoning Damage and 7 Sonic Damage].
The Black Guardian, having used all of it's Quickend Dispels for the day, has no other actions this round...
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) Monday January 4th, 2010 3:48:02 PM
Dwight glares at Plyf as she runs in the wrong direction. Hay, you darn chicken only begins Dwight's thoughts that Plyf is lucky she cannot hear from his thoughts. Others are not so lucky, What type of thief runs from this type of task, just as me grandpa always said, "Best not trust a woman in battle, else you be exposed when you least expect it."
"Plyf, jump on rope, " Dwight yells, hoping to make his point. "Slide to the far side, as magic cannot be used there." Waving his arms in the direction of the rope.
Dwight then positions himself as close to Plyf as he can while still near the ledge.

Unable to move quick enough, Echlhin takes the full blast of the electrical damage. He then commands the elementals into the pit to try and form a makeshift place for someone to stand near the construct. (never got an answer on if this is feasible, and I'm not sure they could reach the construct from in the pit itself).
He then moves to a less electrically filled location (not sure where folks are at this point).

[/b]Vedik[/b] works on protecting the Big M.
Plyf moves over to Dwight's contraption and starts to shimmy down the rope. Unfortunately for her, she fails to get any sort of stable grip on it and the rogue slides haphazardly. She swings wildly on the rope and manages to get herself within inches of the platform before she starts to fall. Halfway down, she feels all of her magic cut out as she enters the antimagic field. And then she feels the platform [Plyf takes 4 Falling Damage]. [Plyf now within an antimagic field. She is also within a silence spell that seems to take up the whole platform]
Echlhin attempts to get on his elemental. The creature has absolutely no problem grabbing Echlhin since the Grim is so willing...
Tratain throws a heal on Monthor.
Monthor, who might actually be a little bit insane, continues his assault on the guardian. Each blow fails to meet Shirley's expectations for damage, weakened by the creature's protections. Still, Monthor's tenacity pays off. The very last blow strikes the Black Guardian in such a way that entirely shatters parts of the construct, ending any further attacks from it...
---
While the battle seems over, the lightning has not yet stopped. Half of the Knights face down another bolt of electricity [Monthor [SR 39], Tratain [SR 33], Vedik [SR 22] each take 30 Electric Damage - Reflex Save DC 25 for half]. The remaining bolt travels along 7, avoiding everyone...
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) Wednesday January 6th, 2010 9:13:42 AM
Dwight cheers for Plyf having made the slide despite the rough landing.
Dwight then flies over to the inactive construct. "Plyf hasss made it over with the ssstone. I'll tie thisss end to the conssstruct and othersss may climb acrossssss. Teleporting and flying won't work due to magic barrier. Not sssure how long or clossse the elementalsss can get to it."
Dwight then proceeds to tie his end of the rope to head of the construct.

Plyf unceremoniously plops down on the other side.
Knowing that the lightening bouncing around the room is the last of the immesiate dangers, she claps for Monthor and begins to search the area. (Again, with Stonecunning from the belt)
If she finds some ancient schematic or words which might help her to figure out how to properly replace the crystal, she attempts to read them.

Tratain isn't able to dodge the lightning this time and then attempts to move out of its path while those over on the platform work on changing out the crystal.
Raiders of the Lost Tribe? [DM Jeff] Friday January 8th, 2010 3:22:59 AM
The Knights barely take time to celebrate, still wary of further attack. Vedik's wall comes down and then seconds pass. No sounds of anything nearby. Everyone gets out of the way of the lightning, knowing that it will strike again every six seconds.
Dwight has successfully set up a tight-rope from the construct--which is surprisingly stable--to the wall across from Plyf. Whether the arrow will hold anyone elses' weight is another question altogether...
---
On the platform, in complete silence, Plyf works. She finds that the old Star Crystal is simply placed into a groove designed for it. A tiny speck of light flickers inside of the crystal, like a spark on the very edge of disappearing. All Plyf needs to do is pull it out and replace it.
Plyf (AC:32 ; HP:114/134) 1 Magic Vestment, Greater Magic Weapon, Friday January 8th, 2010 11:20:35 AM
Plyf reaches down as if to remove the object from the stand. She looks to the others for a thumbs up and if she receives it, she pulls it off.
Now, the question is, how will they get the other crystal over to her?
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) Friday January 8th, 2010 2:44:56 PM
OOC: Plyf has the crystal I thought after trying to touch the wall with it. Did she pass it back to Dwight?

ooc: She handed it off to Eichlin.
Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25) d20+12=15 ; Friday January 8th, 2010 4:23:52 PM
OOC: Okay, missed that part in the heat of the battle.
Seeing the first crystal removed, and nothing 'new' happening, Dwight takes a look at Elchin and surmises he might weight a bit much for his rope. He pulls out his heavy line, which holds up to 300 pounds, and shoots it lower into the wall (roughly 4-5 lower than the light grappling line).
Again floating over the pit, but staying just out of the end-magic area, Dwight fires (use rope: 15) (Should anchor into wall provided Dwight is no more than 30' away).
"All yoursss, Elchin, ssslide yourssself acrossssss the ropesss. Ussse the light one asss a guide, and the lower to walk on. Then you and Plyf can put the new one on."
"The ressst of usss will keep watch at whatever reactivatesss. Magic won't work over there it appearsss."
OOC: Course this might all be pointless if the appearing elementals just make a land bridge.
