Scene: Wastin' Away Again in Island-Eater-Ville

[DinbinFanfoom]

The entire party moves down the path, staying close to the sides so as to avoid being easily seen. Before they know it, they're several hundred yards from the source of the smoke columns. They halt at a place where the path bends from north-to-south to east-to-west. Even Darganti and Lamsi see and hear no signs of human movement.

Do all of you go around the corner?

[Shiz]

No way. Time for Mr Recon. The party will split into the jungle in case some hunters happen by.

Damelon will cut the corner through the jungle and see what he can see.

Stealth +8 = 25
Perception +5 = 22

[DinbinFanfoom]

Damelon sneaks around the corner, careful to stay in the cover of the foliage (Stealth 25: success). Peering west, he sees a crude wall of lashed-together bamboo, about 10' coming out of the jungle on either side of the path. There is no gate on the compound, and through the opening he can see several Eater's, going about their daily business, with only a pair of guards posted inside the gate. Both appear bored. Through the gate, Damelon can see several huts, and a few canoes pulled up on the beach which lay beyond them.

Map (http://www.primeaxiom.com/rpgt/scene.asp?ID=khg1i6xroosi1b1qgw1evpg8gvj61yvfp54v3 sy63knftegluui3m1wf5328zn7o)

[Shiz]

Damelon is going to continue around the wall to the south, keeping at least 3 squares between him and the wall. He wants to get a look at the beach north and south. It might be better to have one or two of us come from that side while the noisy ones attack from the front.

Sneak +8 = 10, I hope there is no one around!

[DinbinFanfoom]

Damelon swings around to the south, skirting the bamboo wall that runs all the way from the path edge to the edge of the beach. He arrives at the edge of the jungle and sees clearly that the compound is open on the ocean side, and several long canoes are pulled up here on the sand. Several yards away, he sees an Eater tending one of these canoes, hunched over and fiddling with something inside the bow. As Damelon cranes his neck to get a better look, he shifts his position and something squeals underfoot. A very miffed lizard scurries away.

Damelon looks back up to see the islander's head snap around in his general direction. The Eater leans left and right to try to peer into the forest and moves a little closer.

Map (http://www.primeaxiom.com/rpgt/scene.asp?ID=khg1i6xroosi1b1qgw1evpg8gvj61yvfp54v3 sy63knftegluui3m1wf5328zn7o)

[Shiz]

Retreat to G18! Stealth +8 = 12.

Uh Oh.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Damelon, noting the approaching islander, does his best to remain quiet as he moves East, deeper into the jungle. The islander reaches the forest edge and looks around, an adze in hand. He listens for a few moments and then, curiosity satisfied, turns to go back to his work.

At that moment, a coconut falls off of a nearby tree and in it's hasty pursuit of terra firma, manages to clang against Damelon's weapon on the way down. The distinctly "un-jungley" sound causes the cannibal to whirl around stalk into the forest, slowly and cautiously. He moves VERY close to Damelon, but does not appear to see him. Yet.

[Shiz]

Damelon will try a non-lethal attack. This guy might be a minion.

Riposte Strike: +9 (incl CA) vs AC = 1+9=10

Boy am I bungling this recon. At least I didn't roll a 1 trying to sneak away.

[Lycos]

This is not your lucky day.

Nor was yesterday your lucky day either. LOL

[DinbinFanfoom]

Roll initiative, Damelon only.

[Shiz]

init +3 = 21

ok maybe I will not mess this up completely.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 1 (Surprise):

Uncomfortable with how close this cannibal is coming to his hiding spot, Damelon springs into action lashing out from the shadows! Just as the rogue lunges, the Eater bends over to pick up and examine the aforementioned coconut and Damelon's attack whiffs by where his head WOULD have been had he remained standing (ATK: 1, auto-miss). The oblivious eater stands back up to see Damelon standing next to him, grinning sheepishly, and proceeds to wig the heck out.

Round 2:

Alarmed, the villager swings at Damelon and due to being fairly surprised, (14 vs AC: miss) just barely misses. He shouts something unintelligible and turns to run back towards the shelter of the enclosure.

Damelon, take an OA and take your turn (after I resolve the OA, feel free to edit). Others: You don't know what's going on, so you haven't entered the encounter yet. I'll assume you'll be still waiting for Damelon, but heard one of the villagers shout. You may make insight rolls to see if you can piece together what happened. Good luck with that.

[EricStratton]

Erik's "Did you hear something?" Insight roll: 15+4 = 19

[Asharad]

Insight to the rescue!

"Dat a bird?"

[Shiz]

Damelon OA: +7 vs AC = 18, 7dmg

If that drops him, then I pick up the body and double move to M14. If it doesn't, I will move to K17 and hide (will roll that if necessary).

[DinbinFanfoom]

How many lbs of gear are you carrying, Damelon? I think your magic number for totally unencumbered movement is 170lbs for you (STR 17 x 10), including the cannibal you just picked up. Since I didn't pick a mass for him... let's settle this with a roll...

1-5: 140lb cannibal (he's slight)
6-10: 150lb cannibal (he's trim)
11-15: 160lb cannibal (he's about average)
16-20: 170lb cannibal (he should start sticking to leaner cuts of human)

Result: He weighs 170lbs. Check the PHB for limitations on encumbered movement. (Reads) Since it seems to be house-ruley... how about this? Give me a STR roll vs DC 15. If you make it, you can do the double move. If not, single move with cannibal-body, double-move without it.

[Shiz]

STR check +3 vs DC15 = 14, so single move to J17 with the body.

Are the roofs of the huts visible above the walls? To put it another way, should one climb a wall portion close to a roof, is it conceivable to jump to the roof, K14 > J13 specifically?

[DinbinFanfoom]

STR check +3 vs DC15 = 14, so single move to J17 with the body.Done. Got another stealth roll?
Are the roofs of the huts visible above the walls?You're too close to the wall to see them right now, but when you peeked through the gate and around the corner, they looked about level (the roofs of the huts and the top of the wall). The wall is of bamboo lashed together, it has very little actual "width" on the top, but you COULD climb it and jump from it, with a good acrobatics attempt.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Anybody else doing insight rolls?

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 2 (continued):

As the islander yells and turns to run back towards the enclosure, Damelon finally connects (ATK 18 vs AC: hit) and connects well (DAM: 7, dead) and the hapless cannibal worker sinks to the ground with a gurgle.

Thinking quickly, Damelon grabs the fresh body by the feet and drags it east. The cannibal must be one of the pudgier ones, however, and the rogue doesn't get as far as he'd like. Behind him, he hears a few yells of surprise, and what he suspects are the hurried footsteps of other islanders coming to investigate (see map).

Party: I need more insight rolls, people.
Damelon: Another stealth roll, please.

[Shiz]

Damelon Stealth +8 = 17

[Shiz]

KT Insight rill 4+0= 4

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 2 (countinued):

Back at the party, Lamsi and Darganti look at each other worriedly when they hear the villager yell. Turning quickly to the group, Lamsi says, "Damilon... is see."

[Asharad]

Can I insight again? If so, here it is. (26)

[DinbinFanfoom]

Can I insight again? If so, here it is. (26)
It's actually 28, because:

OOC: Lamsi uses her "Crucial Advice (standard: utility)" and Crashing rerolls his insight at +2.

Crashing has an epiphany. He actually starts to think he may have personally cracked the syntax of Lamsi's language! (Future conversations, at least between Darganti/Lamsi/Crashing will be easier). He motions Lamsi to start again, but in her native tongue. Surprised, she obliges.

"Damelon has been seen. The Eater has called for help."

[Shiz]

I am struggling to keep my OOC mouth shut. hehe

[EricStratton]

"What'd she say??"

[Asharad]

"It would appear it be go time. Mista Dam be seen."

Crashing reaches into one of his pouches. Both fingers come out of the pouch covered in white paint. He smears a deaths head pattern over his face and smiles, brilliantly.

"Do we go afta him or set up a ambush and hope he bring whoever after him to us?"

[EricStratton]

All hopped up on adrenaline Erik is practically bouncing. "Let's go save him!"

[DinbinFanfoom]

Roll initiative, then, for Round 3.

[EricStratton]

Erik Init 16+2 = 18

FYI, that's my > 10 roll for this encounter. Don't count on Erik hitting anything.

[Asharad]

initiative?

[DinbinFanfoom]

initiative?
(RE: Init > 3)

Lamsi think's Crashing's ganja is wearing off. She's never seen him so... proactive.

[Lycos]

I missed the chance for insight, so here is my init.

8!

[DinbinFanfoom]

Since he's not here:

KT's Init +0

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 3:

Two of the smaller cannibals backtrack and head for the huts, gibbering in fear.

Damelon...

Note: Assume that the rest of you start from R8 or R5 at the edge of the map. Make your moves/actions from there.

[Shiz]

Damelon is on the combat chart twice. I assume the high initiative is the right one.

Round 3:

Drop the body, move to K15, hide and examine the wall for climbing difficulty. If it is 10' high, then it takes 4 movement points to go up and down, but only 1 roll?

Stealth+8-5= 17
Percption on wall +5 = 7

[DinbinFanfoom]

Damelon is on the combat chart twice. I assume the high initiative is the right one.Yes. Fixed.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Drop the body, move to K15, hide and examine the wall for climbing difficulty. If it is 10' high, then it takes 4 movement points to go up and down, but only 1 roll?
Stealth+8-5= 17
4 mp to move to K15 (difficult terrain)
4 mp to climb (10'/5'=2*2=4)
You only have 6mp, IIRC.
Climbing the wall would be an athletics check. Which I'd only undertake after you've done a perception check on the wall itself, as you correctly suggested.

Suggestion: You could do it from K16 (2mp), diagonally, which would put you on the wall at J15 (if you make it).

[Shiz]

I am moving now. Climbing maybe next turn.

[DinbinFanfoom]

I am moving now. Climbing maybe next turn.
Ah! Gotcha.

Damelon skulks through the jungle, anxious to shake his pursuers and cause confusion in the process (Stealth: 17). He finds a bend in the wall and gets in close and examines the structure. It's bamboo (Perception: 7) and lashed together with vines at the bottom, center and top.

[Quervo]

Togar Ini

[DinbinFanfoom]

Lamsi looks to Crashing, as if waiting for confirmation of the plan. "Attack?" she asks. (free)

[Asharad]

Lamsi looks to Crashing, as if waiting for confirmation of the plan. "Attack?" she asks. (free)

"Looks dat way."

[DinbinFanfoom]

Lamsi nods and steps to the edge of the jungle and briefly tracks the quick-moving Underling 3. She fires a single arrow which (16 vs AC: hit) strikes the screaming islander and silences him forever (dead).

Erik...

[Shiz]

Keep your backs covered, everyone. We do not want to be surrounded by enemies pouring out of the huts.

[EricStratton]

I'm not totally sure where Erik's starting from so let me know if this movement doesn't work.

Erik, Round 2:

Move: To O10 keeping to the woods as much as possible.
Standard: Chaos Bolt on Underling 1.

Chaos Bolt: 17+4-2 (cover) = 19 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10+6 = 9+6 = 15 dmg

*gasp*!

[Lycos]

Sigurd just figures something out.

Lamsi, you speak their language???

[DinbinFanfoom]

Erik creeps forward, keeping to the edge of the trees. Reaching the edge of the wall, he utters dark words and a bolt of energy flies towards Underling 1, who is just disappearing around the corner of a hut. The bolt is perfectly aimed, however and strikes the fleeing islander in the back of the head (19 vs WIL: hit). The Eater stops yelling abruptly and falls dead.

Underling 2, hearing the commotion behind him, whirls and sees two of his comrades quickly die. He reverses course and ducks into one of the huts.

Clubber 1, focused, continues into the woods and sees a blood trail...

Crashing...

Lamsi sees Sigurd gibbering at her and looks back to Crashing, confused.

Lamsi and Darganti seem to understand the Eater's language, yes. Further, Crashing seems to have a basic understanding of Lamsi and Darganti's language. She only has a rough understanding of common, and Darganti less so.

[EricStratton]

Lamsi sees Sigurd gibbering at her and looks back to Crashing, confused.
Fixed. Erik does not gibber. ;)

[Asharad]

I'd like to move to 08, if possible.

From there I'll minor action Papa Gator to F11 where he will take a bit out of underling2 with Protecting Strike.

Attack:+4 vs will (16)
damage:9

[Lycos]

Sigurd will move to M10. He wants to take a look inside the compound. If he can't get a good look, he will move to N9. Sigurd is trying to assess the amount of people that we could not see from our current position.

We can only move half our movement in this dense forest (dark green)?

[DinbinFanfoom]

Crashing strides forward to the enclosure opening, whistling for Papa Gator. In a blink, the lizard appears, out in the middle of the village. As if sensing it's master's intention, it turns south to attack an enemy, but only sees a blank hut wall. (Door is on the water side)

Darter 1 moves up between the huts and peers around the corner at the commotion. Spying Crashing at the gate, she draws up her blowgun and fires (ATK 11 vs AC: miss) and the dart embeds itself in the bamboo next to Crashing's head. She yells in frustration.

Darganti runs into the compound, and heads for the cover of the huts, but finds no targets within reach of his spear.

Sigurd follows closely behind, and notices no new targets in view.

Togar...

[Lycos]

Actually make my move to M10.

[Quervo]

Move Togar with a double move to G11

[DinbinFanfoom]

Togar streaks (the clothed kind) into the enclosure. The darter watches him run by, surprised.

[Asharad]

Ash, update your map. There is no enemy near O8. OOps, you can sure throw that guy a long way!


Yeah, blast 20. it's ridiculous.

[Asharad]

I'd like to request that papa gator be allowed to walk around the corner and bite that guy then. He can move 6 squares on his own and I would have had him do that but there is no way to tell where the doors are on the map.

[DinbinFanfoom]

From the other side of the hut, Crashing hears a snap, followed by a scream of agony.

[Shiz]

KT moves to N9 and does total defense if he has a standard action left.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 3:

KT moves forward into the village, cautiously.

Round 4:

From the southern hut, everyone (except Damelon, who doesn't know where the sound is coming from) hears the sound of excited yelling, and a loud thud and a growl of pain. Crashing feels a sense of deep sadness come over him, as if somehow... something is now missing. (DAM: 5)

From the same hut boil two more angry looking islanders, obviously upset that you've awoken them from their afternoon nap. One manages to be awake enough to run at Togar and swings his club (9 vs AC: miss) but fails to connect, in his grogginess.

You hear more angry yelling from one of the northern huts as well, and a swarthy warrior wielding a very large greatclub emerges from each one of them. They rush at KT, the nearest target. Both swing in near perfect unison, and while the wily bard manages to avoid one strike (16-2 vs AC: miss), the other strikes (18-2 vs AC: hit) and strikes hard (DAM: 11).

Damelon...

[Shiz]

Dude, KT is at N9 not K9. Also, your grid does not have APs. We all should have 1. We are going to need it.

Damelon:

Move: Climb the wall at K14, Athletics +8 = 16. Assuming that is good enough, that uses 4 squares (2 up, 2 down) and then he can stop at K12.

Minor: draw a dagger

Std: Throw a dagger at Guardian 1 with a Disheartening Strike, 12 vs AC = miss

AP: charge Guardian 1 (to L9) with my reliable DAILY, Handspring Assault, +8 vs AC, 3d8+3dmg, hit: shift 2 squares
24 vs AC, 12 dmg, shift to L7

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 4:

Damelon grunts and with a bit of effort (ATH 16 vs DC 15) manages to scramble up the wall and flip over to the other side, landing on his feet with a soft thud. He draws and tosses a dagger at Guardian 1 but misses. With renewed vigour, however, he charges at the man with the big club and (24 vs AC: hit, DAM: 12) clobbers him, and then finishes by rolling away, and looking pleased with himself.

Clubber 3 moves out of the hut and attacks Togar, but misses wildly (ATK: 1, miss).

Lamsi takes careful aim and fires two quick shots at the approaching warriors, and makes a pair of spectacular hits (ATK: 28, crit, DAM: 12) to Guardian 1 and (ATK: 27, hit, DAM: 11) Guardian 2.

Erik...

[Asharad]

Poor Papa Gator.

Thankfully, he was dead to begin with.

[EricStratton]

Not to totally muddy the waters but this is technically round 3. :D

Erik:

Standard: Cast Chaos Bolt on Guardian 2.
Move: Move back to R8 via the path.

Chaos Bolt: 15+4=19 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10+6 = 4+6 = 10 dmg

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 3 (continued) (thanks ES):

Erik, at the edge of the woods, utters some dark words and Guardian 2 screams in mental anguish (19 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 10).

Clubber 1, torn between following the bloody trail or moving towards the ruckus he hears in the enclosure, finally decides on the latter and moves back into the fray.

Crashing...

[Asharad]

I will shift back to P7.

As a minor action I will summon Papa Gator back to this plane of existence at H11 to cover Togar's retreat (and give Togar +1 to will, ref and fort)

He will chomp on Darter1 with a defending strike.

Attack:+4 vs reflex =19

Damage:12 and Togar get +1 to AC until eont

[Shiz]

Focus fire guys and use APs and Dailies.

[Lycos]

Sigurd (Round 3):

Moves to M7. I'll take the one OA on the way there.

Std: Attack Guardian 1 with Macetails Rage; (Daily) +6 vs Reflex attack, 1d12+4 damage, Hit: 1[W] + Strength modifier (+4) damage, and you knock the target prone. Miss: Half damage. Effect: You enter the rage of the macetail behemoth. Until the rage ends, whenever you hit, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Strength modifier (+4).

20 against Guardian 1, that should hit vs. Reflex. He is prone. +4 temp hp for me.
17 against Guardian 2 vs Reflex. If that hits, he is prone as well.

9 points of damage each. If I miss, they take half damage.

Use Action Point:
Attack Guardian 1 and 2 with...
Great Cleave; (Encounter) +6 attack vs AC, 1d12+4 damage, Close burst 1, Does damage to all enemies in the burst, + 1 damage for each enemy adjacent to you.

18 vs AC on Guardian 1, hits? 9 vs AC on Guardian 2. I can't remember, do I roll for both or just once and add damage?

13 points of damage.

I'm RAGING...

What are the bonuses to a prone target?

[Shiz]

Macetail's Rage is a close burst like Great Cleave. You have to roll 2 attacks for each and only 1 damage for each.

[DinbinFanfoom]

With a flourish of his hand, Crashing re-summons Papa Gator, who immediately turns and clamps down hard on Darter 1 (ATK 19 vs REF: hit, DAM 12). Togar feels heartened by the appearance of an ally (+1 AC until EoNT Crashing?)

Unimpressed by this turn of events, Darter 1 lashes out at PG with her dagger, but misses (10 vs AC: miss). She then retreats around the hut. Papa Gator retaliates and connects, and Togar feels a bit better (+4 hp).

Darganti moves north to intercept the guardians, and takes a stab at Guardian 2 with his spear but his Reaping Strike is hasty (12 vs AC: miss, DAM 4). Guardian 2 is bloodied.

Replot your move, Sigurd, as Darganti didn't get your memo.

[Lycos]

Done. I'll take the one OA as I move to M7. The other moves stay the same.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Growling furiously, Sigurd circles the Guardians and slips in behind Guardian 1 who takes a shot at the fast-moving barbarian as he moves (21 vs AC: hit, DAM: 9). Ignoring the damage, Sigurd swings his weapon in a pair of dangerous arcs (21 vs AC on G1: hit, DAM: 9, knocked prone and 17 vs AC on G2: hit, DAM: 9, knocked prone), striking both of the now-surrounded cannibals and knocking them flat! His second swing, a titanic cleave, clips one of the fallen guardians (19 vs AC-2 on G1: hit, DAM: 13 and 9 vs AC-2 on G2: miss) bloodying him. Sigurd feels slightly refreshed by that workout (+4 THP).

(No dam bonus for prone, but +2 to ATK melee, which doesn't matter in this case)

Togar...

[Quervo]

Lasting Threat (Daily) vs Clubber 3. +9 vs AC, 3d12+4 dmg, Marked till end of Encounter or I get knocked out, no mark can over ride this one.

AP, Steel Serpent Strike (encounter) vs Clubber 2. +9 vs AC, 2d12+4 dmg, Target slowed and can not shift till EoNT, Mark clubber 2

Clubber 3
16 vs AC, 15 damage, Marked

Clubber 2 missed.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Togar finds himself in a "target rich environment", so lashes out visciously at a nearby cannibal (ATK: 16 vs AC: hit, DAM: 15, marked until EoE). The clubber grunts in pain and anger. The fighter, feeling spry, decides on taking another shot at the second clubber, but misses badly (ATK: 1, miss).

KT...

[Shiz]

KT makes a Guiding Strike against Guardian 2, +7 vs AC, d8+4, hit: -2AC EONT. Then he shifts out of melee range to M10.

18 vs AC, 10dmg, -2 AC EOMNT

[Asharad]

Unimpressed by this turn of events, Darter 1 lashes out at PG with her dagger, but misses (10 vs AC: miss). She then retreats around the hut. (Does PG get OA's?)


He does.

Spirit Shield
Attack:+4 vs reflex=14
Damage:4 damage

Also Togar gets +4 hit points

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 3:

Not liking being next to the angry great-club wielders, KT lashes out at Guardian 2 (ATK 18 vs AC: hit, DAM 10, -2AC until EoNT KT) and dodges away to the southwest, behind Darganti. Guardian 2 is in pretty bad shape.

From one of the farthest huts comes the sound of low chanting and a bent figure shambles into view, accompanied by two others.

The figure raises an arm and points it at the party. Suddenly, a dark cloud rises from the wet earth. (Centered on N9). Damelon (21 vs FOR: hit, DAM: 7), Crashing (23 vs FOR: hit, DAM: 7), Darganti (26 vs FOR: hit, DAM: 7), KT (16 vs FOR: hit, DAM: 7) are all hit and feel confused. (Dazed until EoNT)

The two clubbers adjacent to him hang back, guarding their leader against attack.

Round 4:

The guardians, bleeding profusely, desperately fight on. Guardian 1 stands and lashes out with his greatclub at Sigurd (ATK 25 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5-4THP=1) and connects, sending the Barbarian tumbling. Guardian 2 stands as well and strikes out at Crashing and connects with the coughing shaman (ATK 20 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5), also sending him reeling backwards.

Clubber 2 swings at Togar and barely hits (ATK: 18 vs AC+1, hit, DAM 4).

Damelon...

[Shiz]

Damelon grins as the prone Guardian 1 and lunges at him, +9 vs AC = 16, but misses. He then shifts into a better position, M7, for next round.

[DinbinFanfoom]

The cloud dissipates as quickly as it rose. Damelon swings, misses and tries to slide sideways but... finds that he's just too wobbly (dazed).

Clubber 3 raises his club and brings it down hard on Togar's shoulder (21 vs AC: hit, DAM: 8).

Lamsi takes aim at the two nearest targets again and her arrows strike true (20 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5, 19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5). Guardian 2 is barely on his feet.

[EricStratton]

Erik Round 4:

Chaos Bolt on Guardian 2.

Chaos Bolt: 2+4 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10 + 6

Ouch

He's going to go ahead and use his AP and try again:

Chaos Bolt #2: 11+4 = 15 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10 + 6 = 5+6 = 11

[DinbinFanfoom]

Erik noncholantly wiggles his fingers at the profusely bleeding Guardian 2. A dark bolt of energy shoots forward from his fingers and travels for about 5 feet before falling to the ground. Frowning, Erik looks at his hand, flexes his fingers and tries again, with better success. Guardian 2 crumpes to the ground, clutching his head. (DEAD)

Clubber 1, skulking forward from between the huts, flanks Togar and attempts to rap him on the noggin from around the corner of the hut but (9 vs AC: miss) fails to connect.

FYI, the dark spots are smouldering ashes... cooled but still difficult terrain.

Crashing...

[Asharad]

Crashing looks surprised that Togar didn't take advantage of his assistance and get away from the big crowd of natives.

He shrugs, and as a minor action uses Healing Spirit on himself (allows the use of a healing surge so, +6 hit points). It also grants Togar 1d6 hit points (3).

Papa gator them bites into Clubber 1 with a protecting strike.

That does 12 damage and gives Togar another 2 hit points.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Crashing frowns at Togar, and then shrugs and utters some healing words(minor). Both the shaman and the fighter feel a bit better. Crashing, in a bit of a fugue, forgets to tell PG to do anything. PG looks slightly disappointed.

Darter 1 moves out into the open and raises her blowgun towards Damelon and fires. The dart barely misses (15 vs AC: miss) and the darter howls in frustration.

Darganti decides to put Guardian 1 out of his misery with a Reaping Strike (19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 13) and entirely succeeds (Dead).

Sigurd...

[Lycos]

Sigurd is charging to F8, and using Howling Strike on the Chanter.

Howling Strike; +6 attack, 1d12+1d6+4 damage, When charging, you can use this power in place of a melee basic attack. If you are raging, you can move 2 extra squares as part of the charge.

Yay! Crit!

That is 22 points plus crit damage, +6 = 28 points total.

+4 temp hps to me.

Maintain rage.

[Shiz]

Damelon shouts "Erik target the caster. Crashing, tell Lamsi to do the same."

[DinbinFanfoom]

With a blood-curdling howl, Sigurd roars across the battlefield, hops over the ashes of the campfire and barely notices the club of one of the clubmen (25 vs AC: hit, DAM: 9) as he closes in and smashes into the tribal Shaman. (Crit, DAM: 28) The chanter reels backwards under the assault. Sigurd is encouraged by the effect (+4 THP).

Togar...

[Asharad]

Din, I don't think you did my attack

[EricStratton]

Din, I don't think you did my attack
Were you dazed? That could be why.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Were you dazed? That could be why.
Yes, sorry. I didn't acknowledge that in your turn. (Fixed) The minor heal got through, but as you are dazed, no standard action on top of that. There's a bit of a professional grudge-match going on here...

[Asharad]

Were you dazed? That could be why.

Oh yeah.

I wonder how that works, since it was really the ghost that does the attack.

**** what a waste of a 20.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Oh yeah.
I wonder how that works, since it was really the ghost that does the attack.
**** what a waste of a 20.PG looks back and his distant, reptilian slitted-pupils seem to say, "It's OK, dude. We'll use that on my next attack, as long as it's the same one. The universe is feeling generous."

[DinbinFanfoom]

Togar is up...

[Quervo]

Togar will use sure strike on clubber 2, +11 vs AC, d12 damage

23 vs AC, 4 damage

[Shiz]

KT moves to J9. He sends Vicious Mockery at Clubber 2, 8 vs WIL.

[Shiz]

"I am going to help Togar, the rest of you help Sigurd and take down that chanter!"

Damelon Round 5:

Move: to G10
Std: Clever Strike vs Clubber 3, +9 vs AC = 16, dmg d8+3+2d6+3 but I think he missed.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Togar, harried on three sides by cannibals, grimly swings at one of them, aiming for accuracy over power (23 vs AC: hit). He connects and gashes Clubber 2 (DAM: 4)

KT tries to move forward deeper into the enclosure but feels too funky (dazed) to both move and attack. He settles for making a rude gesture at Clubber 2 to add insult to Togar's injury of the islander (12 vs WIL: hit). It growls angrily (DAM: ?)

The Cannibal Chanter steps backwards and behind his guards and growls some dark words at Darganti (ATK: 15 vs WIL: hit). The warrior looks a bit worried and glances around superstitiously (Haunting Spirits). (DAM: 7) Damelon, Crashing, Darganti and KT are no longer dazed, but Darganti feels a bit vulnerable (CA granted to Darter 1).

Clubber 4 shifts back towards the water to block approach to his leader, and swings at Sigurd but misses badly (ATK 9 vs AC: miss).

Clubber 5 tries to do better (ATK 16 vs AC: hit) and just manages to wing Sigurd with his club (DAM: 9-4THP=5). Sigurd barely seems to notice that he's feeling wobbly...

End of Round 4

Round 5

Clubber 2, feeling the strength of numbers, howls and brings his club down (ATK 25 vs AC: hit) on Togar (DAM: 6).

Damelon hurries forward to stand on the remains of the old firepit. His shoes smoke, but don't catch. Yet. His maneuver catches Clubber 3 by surprise, however (ATK 16 vs AC: hit) and (DMG: 16).

[Shiz]

Dameon dmg roll = 16.

I meant G9, but am happy to live with what I wrote.

[Lycos]

Round 2:

move: shift to E9.

If I'm still up, Sigurd will attack the Chanter with a Recuperating Strike.

Recuperating Strike; +6 attack, 1d12+4 damage, on hitting you gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (+1). If you are raging, the number of temporary hit points you gain equals 5 + your Constitution modifier (+1).

13 + 6 = 19. Hit?

damage = 6 points of damage.

I gain 6 temp hps.

[Asharad]

I'll move to J10.

As a minor action I'll use Healing Spirit on Sig. He can spend a healing surge. Also, Togar gets extra hitpoints (which I will roll for).

Papa gator will take another bite out of Clubber 1, this time with defending strike.
Attack:14 vs reflex
Damage:5

Togar gets +1 ac

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 5, continued:

Clubber 3 is incensed at being hit by Damelon but is still more angry at Togar (Lasting Threat) he puts every ounce of his remaining strength into a swing (ATK: crit) and absolutely SMASHES the fighter (DAM: 16). Togar crumples, unconscious. (Failed Saves: 0)

Lamsi focuses on the task at hand and fires two more arrows into the fray striking (ATK 17 vs AC: hit, DAM 3) Clubber 3 and (ATK 19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5) Clubber 2. Clubber 3 is reeling.

Erik...

[Quervo]

death saves 1-5

[Asharad]

Okay...so...

I'll move to J10.

As a minor action I'll use Healing Spirit on Sig. He can spend a healing surge. Also, Dam gets extra hitpoints (which I rolled for in the other post, it was a three).

Papa gator will do his protecting strike from the last round on Clubber1 (same as it ever was). That's a 20 to attack(hooray!)

Damage:12 and Dam gets another 2 temporary hit points.

dam also gets +1 fort/will/ref

[EricStratton]

Erik, Round 5:

Move: Move across the path back into the trees (O7).

Standard: Peek around the wall and cast Mists of Disarray on E10 hoping to hit Darter 1 and Clubbers 2 and 3.

Mists of Disarray:

Attack: Charisma vs. Will
Hit: 1d8 + Charisma modifier (+4) psychic damage, and you push the target 1 square.
Wild Magic: If you rolled an even number on the attack roll, you slide the target a number of squares equal to your Dexterity modifier (+2) instead of pushing it.
Implement, Staff: +4 attack, 1d8+6 damage

MoD:
Darter 1: 18+4 = 22 vs WIL
Clubber 2: 18+4 = 22 vs WIL
Clubber 3: 11+4 = 15 vs WIL

Dmg: 1d8+6 = 6+6 = 12 dmg

Darter 1: 12 dmg and slide to G9 (I like to keep the ranged ones close)
Clubber 2: 12 dmg and slide to E13 (I guess. Just trying to give Dam and Togar some room)
Clubber 3: If a 15 vs WIL hits - 12 dmg and push..uh...DM's choice, I guess. A straight push from the source of the blast would have him run into Dam.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Erik gets down to business, chucking some serious arcana around. His dark mists descend on the battlefield and throw it into confusion. Darter 1 (22 vs WIL: hit, DAM 12) and Clubber 2 (22 vs WIL: hit, DAM 12) flounder helplessly (I slid C2 diagonally, as I don't think you can bend him around a corner) but Clubber 3 screams and runs south, straight into the hut wall, breaking his neck (15 vs WIL: hit, DAM 12, Dead).

Clubber 1 (really sorry about this, Ash), seeing no other target near him besides PG the clubmagnet (and deciding that running around the hut and taking an OA isn't a course of action) brings his cudgel down on the lizard and striking (13 vs AC: hit, DAM: 12). Papa Gator collapses in a heap. Again. (He'll get that 20 the next time you summon him and attack with him, I promise. C1 just had no other course of action, really). Clubber 1 steps forward toward the battle.

Crashing calculates his options for the 3rd time...

[Shiz]

Damelon shouts "HUzzah! Nice spell, Erik!"

Tactically, that was great because now I get CA on the darter!

And Din, don't worry about killing the gator. It is actually very good for us because it only deals 5 dmg to Crashing and he can re-summon it where is wants it vs a much higher potential damage to one of us.

[Asharad]

OKay...

I'll still move to J10.(move)

Damn...okay, I'll resummon PG and put him at h10, giving Dam +1 ref/will/def (minor action)

Then I'll use Healing Spirit on Siggy, giving him a surge and (minor) giving Dam 4 hit points.

Then I'll use an action point and Papa Gator will...once again...bite Clubber1.

Look, I rolled a 20!

Damage:12

Dam gets 2 temp hit points.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Crashing mourns a_companion_gator02's loss only briefly while striding forward and resummoning the reptile next to the Clubber that did him wrong. The shaman mumbles and does a little jig, and both Sigurd and Damelon feel a bit better (+7 and +4 hp). Feeling spry (AP burned) Crashing gestures to a_companion_gator03, who growls, obliges and demands restitution of Clubber 1, in the form of a nasty bite (ATK: crit, DAM: 12, Damelon +2 THP).

Darter 1, not liking being next to the wiry rogue, slides away from him and fires her blowgun, this time finally connecting (25 vs AC: hit, DAM: 7-2). Damelon feels the numbing poison coursing through his veins (Dazed until EoNT Darter 1) Darter 1 smiles eagerly and licks her lips.

Darganti charges towards Clubber 1 (ATK 23+1 vs AC: hit) and slams hard into the islander (DAM: 11), bloodying him. Darganti barely makes a sound.

Sigurd is no longer adjacent to Darter 1.

[Greebo]

Minor: Majestic word on Togar - surge + 4 hps. Slide 1 if Togar wishes it only.
Standard: Cutting words on the chanter: +4 vs. will, 1d8+4 and pull target 2, to F9
Spend AP
Standard: Blunder (don't think its been used) +4 vs will, 1d6+4, slide target 2 and during slide, ONE ally can make MBA with +2 to the attack - figure Damelon would like that honor.

Cutting words +4 14 = 4 = 18 vs. will
Cutting word damage 4+4 = 8 dmg
Blunder + 4 17 + 4 = 21 vs will
Blunder damage 6+4 = 10 dam

So Unless this guy is a freak with his will, I'll slide him further to H9 and give Damelon the melee basic attack.

[Shiz]

Dameon OA attack: +7 vs AC = 14 for 8 dmg.

The second slide should be to H9, I figure. That puts the chanter in OA of me and papa gator.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Sigurd steps southwest into the gap between the two cannibals and attacks their leader (ATK 19 vs AC: hit) striking the old man a glancing blow (DAM: 6). Sigurd feels a bit encouraged (6 THP)

Togar... feels no better, no worse (Save vs Dying: 19)

KT, looking more alive than ever before, sings a pretty healing song which reaches the ears of the unconscious Togar, reviving him (+11 HP, Togar may stand next turn). Togar blinks, confused. Turning his attention to the head Eater, the bard utters a stinging rebuke (18 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 8) and the elder staggers east. Summoning his inner wailer (Burn AP), KT attacks again, his confusing words causing the islander to stumble further (21 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 10). As the chanter staggers his way past Damelon, the rogue entertains vague thoughts about acting and lashes out, instinctively, but his swing goes wide (14 vs AC: miss). The chanter is bloodied badly.

The Chanter regains his composure and looks around the battlefield. After a moment, he raises his staff above his head and gargles some dark, forbidding words. In a zone around him, the air darkens, and screams are heard. He cackles maniacally as Crashing (17 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 11), Togar (15 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 11) and Damelon (Crit, DAM: 16) bear the brunt of the attack and are knocked on their backs. Darganti (11 vs WIL: Miss) and KT (10 vs WIL: Miss) manage to cover their eyes in time. The Eater elder looks around him and smiles, grimly.

Feeling a turn in the tide of battle, Clubber 4 screams and charges towards the bard (ATK: 15 vs AC: miss) but just manages to miss the now-concerned minstrel.

Clubber 5, seeing no need to change his position, swings at Sigurd, who is distracted by Darter 1. (20+2 vs AC: hit, DAM: 9+2=11-6THP)

End of Round 5

Round 6

Clubber 2 rushes back into the fray, catching Damelon by surprise (ATK 20+2 vs AC+1: hit, DAM: 4+2=6). The rogue is in very, very bad shape.

Damelon...

[Shiz]

Just so everyone is clear, even though the Chanters area attack normally provokes and OA from any adjacent enemy, Damelon had already done an OA this round so he could not do one again.

What happened to Papa Gator? He is off the map, but might have gotten an OA in response to the casting.

Damelon is bloodied, btw. The grid did not pick up the bloodied or it just did not fit.

Damelon will stay on the ground and Second Wind, +7hps and +2 more at all defenses.

Erik is waiting for Lamsi to go to make sure he picks the right target(s).

[Asharad]

J
What happened to Papa Gator? He is off the map, but might have gotten an OA in response to the casting.


this is a good question.

He disappears when I fall unconscious.

So from a timeline standpoint, how does this work?

if I am standing next to a monster and cast a spell, does the monster get to OA me before that spell lands?

if so, then PG gets an OA on the chanter, after which he immediately disappears.

This is kind of important as it will grant one ally within five squares of him 4 hitpoints.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Just so everyone is clear, even though the Chanters area attack normally provokes and OA from any adjacent enemy, Damelon had already done an OA this round so he could not do one again.
The chanter's spell is "close burst", not "area" or "ranged". No OA's.
What happened to Papa Gator?He poofs when Crashing goes unconcious.
Damelon is bloodied, btw. The grid did not pick up the bloodied or it just did not fit.I'll fix that.
Damelon will stay on the ground and Second Wind, +7hps and +2 more at all defenses.
Damelon plays possum and quietly gathers his courage. (+7hps, +2DEF)

Lamsi draws a bead on both the Chanter and Clubber 4, but manages (ATK 1: miss) (ATK: 23 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6) only to hit the latter.

Erik...

[Asharad]

Death save!

[EricStratton]

Erik, Round 6:

Standard: Chaos Bolt on Chanter 1.

CB: 4+4 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10 + 6

"I don't work well under pressure!"

B/c I rolled an even number Erik gets +1 AC until EoNT.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Erik gulps as he sees the meyhem on the battlefield, but points his hand at the Cannibal elder, cursing him. (8 vs WIL: miss, +1 AC until EoNT Erik) The chanter turns and grins at Erik as the dark bolt sails harmlessly past.

Clubber 1 whirls and attacks Darganti (9 vs AC: miss) but the wary warrior deftly deflects the blow with the haft of his spear.

Crashing bleeds a bit, but his condition thankfully does not deteriorate (Save 16).

Darter 1 steps back from Sigurd and fires her blowgun at him (18 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5). Sigurd is near death's door and dazed. Damelon is no longer dazed.

Darganti does not like the look of this fray. He attacks the clubber adjacent to him and executes a successful Reaping Strike (19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 8). Clubber 1 is badly wounded. Darganti retreats east to stand adjacent to Crashing's body.

The cannibal chanter laughs insanely at Damelon and points. He appears to appreciate the fact that Damelon is pre-roasting himself on the old embers.

Sigurd...

[Lycos]

Sigurd is going to Second Wind right now. +7 hps and +2 to defenses.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Sigurd takes a moment to recenter himself and gather his resolve (+7 HP, +2 DEF until EoNT Sigurd).

Togar, back on the ground, gets no worse (Save 11, I think it was).

KT...

[Greebo]

Shift to K10
Looks like Crashing can't heal anyone else, so..
Togar again gets Majestic Word - 2nd use, no more heals.
And then I'll use my daily

- Stirring Shout; +4 vs WIL, 2d6+4 psychic dmg, Range 10, Until end of encounter whenever an ally hits the target they regain 4 hp.

I will put it on Clubber 2, however, not 4, because there are 3 badly wounded guys next to him who can hopefully get a little health back immediately from it.

OH!

Dang I missed this - KT has Improved Majestic Word - Togar should have gained 4 THP when I healed him last round. Din if you allow it, Togar never passed out, having 4 hps left. If not, then this time he gets surge + 4 + 4thp.

Also: Virtue of Cunning - When an enemy misses an ally
within 5 + Int mod squares, slide that ally 1 square as a free
action (1/rd).

An enemy missed Darganti just now - if Darganti is willing, I'll slide him one west, so he's flanking clubber 1.

Oh goodie, Blew the daily.

[DinbinFanfoom]

OK, back at this finally. I doubt I can sort it all out, so I'll just kinda mash it together...

KT steps back and to the left and yells to Togar, "Buddy? I think you're OK..." and Togar opens his eyes. He only THOUGHT he was unconcious. Maybe he's getting tired? (Togar is at 4hp and prone, like he would have been last round). KT turns to the downed shaman and sings a soothing little ditty. Crashing feels alert (+6+4hp) but is still lying down. KT, really jamming now, attempts to encourage his party to attack Clubber 2, manages to forget the 2nd verse. He hums it, but that's not good enough (7 vs WIL: miss). Darganti takes the opportunity to move (slide) towards Clubber 1, flanking him.

Togar: Specify a Round 6 action as if you weren't unconcious when your turn went by.

28 vs AC, 14 Damage

[DinbinFanfoom]

Togar staggers to his feet and swings at a nearby clubman who stands between him and Darganti. His swing connects, and Clubber 1 drops to the ground (ATK: 19+2 vs AC, DAM: 14, Dead).

The Chanter, seeing his tribemate fall, takes a step north and merely looks at Togar... (ATK 18 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 9). Togar shrieks in terror and hits the ground. Again.

Clubber 4 swings at the nearby Crashing, hitting the Shaman who lies on the ground (ATK 17+2 vs AC: hit, DAM: 7). Crashing is near death's door again.

Clubber 5 brings his club down hard on the defensive but groggy Sigurd (ATK 19+2-2 vs AC: hit, DAM 12), dropping the Barbarian.

End of Round 6

Round 7

Clubber 2, fearing that the tide may be turning again, (ATK 19-2+2: hit) attempts to hit the prone Damelon with his club, and succeeds. (DAM: 6) Damelon is badly wounded.

Above the din of the battlefield and the waves on the shore, Crashing (passive perception) hears splashing coming from the southwest.

Seeing Togar and Sigurd fall, Darganti quickly looks back at Lamsi and yells something.

Damelon stands (move) and stabs (std) at Clubber 2 with a Riposte Strike, 10 vs AC.

[Asharad]

I will stand and cast Spirit of the Healing Flood.

The attack part:

Clubber2: 16 vs fort

Some less than great rolls, but there you go.

damage:10
On a miss it is half damage

Healing Part
Everyone who is bloodied gets +2 regernation per round until the end of the encounter. That's not great. however, as a minor action you can dispell the effect and immediatly get 10 hit points, which is nice.

Minor Action: I'll dispell and take the ten.

[EricStratton]

Erik tries to keep his composure at seeing so much allied blood spilled.

He'll peak around the corner again and cast Chaos Bolt at the Chanter again.

Chanter:
Chaos Bolt: 18+4 = 22 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10+6 = 3+6 = 9 dmg

Because I rolled an even number (and hit) I get to roll a secondary attack:

Secondary Target: One creature within 5 squares of the target last hit by this power
Secondary Attack: Charisma vs. Will
Hit: 1d6 psychic damage. If you rolled an even number for the secondary attack roll, repeat the secondary attack. You can attack a creature only once with a single use of this power.

So the bolt will rebound off of the Chanter and go for Darter 1:

Darter 1:
CB2: 12+4 = 16 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d6 = 4 psychic dmg

Rolled another even and, I'm guessing, hit. Secondary attack again, this time at Clubber 2:

Clubber 2:
CB3: 9+4 = 13 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d6 = 3 psychic dmg

Additionally, b/c I rolled an even number on my first attack roll Erik gets +1 AC until the end of my next turn.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 7 Continued:

Damelon scrambles to his feet and hastily stabs at Clubber 2 (ATK 10 vs AC: miss) but his thrust is wide.

Lamsi raising her bow to fire, hears Darganti yell at her and then changes her mind... she hesitates for a moment and then, seeing two of her party on the ground, streaks north up the path and out of sight.

Erik closes his eyes and fires a zigzagging bolt of power into the foray, which strikes the Chanter between the eyes, dropping him like a sack of mangoes (ATK 22 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 9, Dead) rebounds to Darter 1 (ATK 16 vs WIL: hit, DAM 4) and then ricochets towards Clubber 2 (ATK 13 vs WIL: miss), but just misses.

Crashing likewise creaks upright again and, waving his arms in the air, sends a tide of energy across the enclosure. Clubber 5 and Clubber 2 are hit (DAM: 10) but Darter 1 and Clubber 4 are missed (DAM: 5). Chanting makes a quick gesture, and feels much better. (+10hp) The Darter is reeling.

Not that it helps the end result, but I don't think my second wind got calculated into Sigurd's hps.Fixed. Still down, but not as negative.

Seeing her elder down, the Darter shrieks in anger and fires a dart at Damelon (ATK 17 vs AC: hit, DAM: 7) and it strikes him in the neck. Damelon feels all wonky-like again (dazed until EoNT Darter 1). He is also reeling and looks like a leaf could blow him over.

Curiously, Darganti does not engage the nearby clubber, but instead darts between the huts and heads towards where Crashing heard the noise. As he moves out of sight, you hear him yelling excitedly.

Sigurd lies on the ground, insensate (I need a save roll, Lycos).

Togar does likewise (Save 8: failed)

KT...

[Lycos]

Save vs Death

[Greebo]

I believe Darter 2 should actually be dead. However, if he is not, I'll target him. If he IS, I'll target Clubber 5.

Cutting Words: +4 vs. Will, 1d8 + 4 & pull target 2 squares.
If Darter 2 - no pull
If Clubber 5 - pull to F9, setting up an easy flank situation.

Go go gadget dice...

Yay. 11 vs. will. That probably sucks. Will is never that low...

I'm also going to move to k11

[DinbinFanfoom]

Darter 2 isn't even in the scene...?
Darter 1 is alive, though barely (see discussion thread).

KT starts to sing an insulting limerick to Darter 1, but totally messes up the last line, rendering it unfunny and not even that insulting. (ATK 11 vs WIL: miss)

Clubber 4 winds up and smacks the very smug look off of Crashing's face (ATK Crit, DAM: 12). Crashing, staggered, nearly does just that but decides to reel instead.

Clubber 5 moves into position to flank Damelon, but even with that benefit (ATK 8+2 vs AC: miss) his swing whiffs badly.

End of Round 7

Round 8

Clubber 2 shows Clubber 5 how it is done and whallops Damelon across the jaw (ATK 17+2 vs AC: hit, DAM: 8+2). The rogue is knocked around in circles and then collapses in a heap, unconscious.

Damelon lies insensate (Damelon needs a save roll).

Lamsi is nowhere to be seen.

Erik...

[EricStratton]

Erik, Round 7:

Chaos Bolt on Darter 1:

CB: 16+4 = 20 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10+6 = 8+6 = 14 dmg

Secondary attack on Clubber 2:

CB: 16+4 = 20 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d6 = 4 dmg

Another attack. This one on Clubber 4:

CB: 7+4 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d6

(the last roll wording should've been "CB3 +4 vs WIL". I got all excited.)

Additionally, +1 AC until EoNT (even on first attack roll).

[Shiz]

Damelon save =

Another save

[Quervo]

togar save

save vs death #2 fail

[Greebo]

It appears not.

Move adjacent to Togar - 1 east of him.
Standard - Heal: DC10 - allow character to use 2nd wind without using an action. Character does not gain bonus to defenses. (but if it works, at least he'll be conscious

14. Togar gets to surge up from 0 hps.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 8, continued:

Erik tries to repeat his previous success and does fairly well in that regard. His wild-looking bolt flies across the clearing and (ATK 20 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 14, Dead) drops Darter 1 before bouncing across the field and grazing Clubber 2 (ATK 20 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 4). It then heads off harmlessly across the water (ATK 11 vs WIL: miss).

Crashing...

[Asharad]

DB, I have 13 hit points. I dispelled the effect last round and took the 10.

Okay, shift to k10. (move)

Minor action call back papa gator to J10.

Then Thunder Bear's Warding on Clubber 4.

Attack:+4 vs fort= 10 so probably a miss. which is too bad cause we could have used the buff.
damage:9
KT and I get +2 vs all damage and 2 temp hit points.

We also get +1 fort/ref and will.

[DinbinFanfoom]

DB, I have 13 hit points. I dispelled the effect last round and took the 10.Yes, you did, and then C4 critted you afterwards for 12 (see above), knocking you back down to 1.

Round 8, continued:

Crashing, aiming for prudent, steps back from the nearest clubber to stand alongside KT and summons the somewhat-still-bruised Papa Gator back to the field. Encouraged by his ability to step backwards, he attempts to follow that up with a dark curse on Clubber 4 but (ATK 10 vs FOR: miss) it is ineffective.

Darganti is still out of sight, but you hear yelling and clanging from the direction he went.

Sigurd lies on the ground, but his condition remains somewhat stable. (Save 18: Success)

Togar mimics Sigurd almost perfectly, except for the stable part. (Save 8: Fail #2)

KT moves foreward bravely to assist the fallen Togar, who appears near death's door. Kneeling down, the bard whispers quiet words of hope in the fighter's bleeding ear. Togar's eyes flutter open. Again. (14 vs DC 10: Success) (Togar +7 HP and is now conscious)

Clubber 4 presses his attack on Crashing, moving closer to him and swinging (ATK 20 vs AC: hit, DAM: 8). Crashing finally does just that. Papa Gator winks out nearly as quickly as he appeared.

Clubber 5 attempts to show KT the error of his healing ways by stepping towards him and swinging at him (ATK 21 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6). The bard is badly wounded.

Round 9

Clubber 2 seems frustrated that Togar won't stay unconscious and remedies that by striking the fighter (ATK 18+2 vs AC: hit, DAM: 8). Togar barely has time to register the colour of the sky before it goes black again. (Unconscious) (Well, at least you reset your save count...) The cannibal takes one last hungry look at the downed fighter and streaks off towards Erik.

Damelon lies quietly on the pile of warm coals, clothes smoking. (Save 12: Success)

Erik...

Notes: I think I had the rounds mislabelled. We are clearly in 9 now.

[Quervo]

next save...

3rd fail.... togar is down and out... for good

[Greebo]

Oh My Gods! You killed Togar!!!

[Lycos]

Oh my Gods, they killed Togar! ...You bastards!"

[EricStratton]

Erik, Round 9:

"Uh, I might need some help here!"

If clubber 2 (or 4 for that matter) manages to make it to me, I'm going to cast my daily on him.

Chaos Bolt on Clubber 2.

Chaos Bolt: 15+4 = 19 vs WIL
Dmg: 1d10 + 6 = 4+6 = 10 dmg

[Greebo]

"Yeah yeah, be there soon as I save the world..."

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 9 continued:

Erik regards the incoming cannibal with a mix of concern and... ok mostly just concern. He fires another zigzagging bolt of energy, this time targetting the closest foe. (ATK 19 vs WIL: hit, DAM: 10) It strikes the approaching islander directly in the chest and staggers him a bit. He is wounded very badly at this point.

Crashing gets no worse (Death Save 16: Success).

Darganti fights on, somewhere, it is assumed.

Sigurd bleeds, but clots a little (Death Save 12: Success).

Togar the Incredibly Stubborn, finally breathes his last, having taken a bit too much trauma for one body to stand. (Death Save 4: Failure #3, Dead)

KT is actually at 6HP, if you count his 2pt regen from last turn and this one...

[Greebo]

Ok - http://www.primeaxiom.com/rpgt/scene.asp?ID=khg1i6xroosi1b1qgw1evpg8gvj61yvfp54v3 sy63knftegluui3m1wf5328zn7o (for my own ease of reference)

Standard 2nd wind: +6 hps, +2 all defenses, EONT. Still bloodied (12 hps)

Minor Dispel regeneration, +10 hps - total, 22 hps I believe.

What are the brown 2x2 squares? Huts? Shift south, 1 square

[DinbinFanfoom]

What are the brown 2x2 squares? Huts? Shift south, 1 square.Yes. You can shift between them.

Round 9

KT, our plucky little string-plucker, decides that discretion is the greater part of valour and moves south, between the relative safety of the huts. As he does so, he shrugs off the hapless Crashing's regeneration and regathers his resolve (+6+10HP, +2 DEF until EoNT KT).

Clubber 4 charges at Erik, (ATK 17+1 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6) but only strikes the caster a glancing blow.

Clubber 5 presses in on the retreating bard, but his club (ATK 20-2 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6) does not strike hard due to a partial-parry by the minstrel.

Round 10

Clubber 2 continues it's quest to exact restitution upon the caster that has wreaked so much havoc on the field of battle this day. It moves up next to it's ally and swings at Erik (ATK 16 vs AC: hit, DAM: 5) but like his fellow, only manages a mediocre blow.

Erik...

[Lycos]

Sigurd's save vs. Death

DM Edit: I updated the above (R9) post with this save. Thanks.

[Greebo]

Guiding strike: 7 vs. AC; 1d8+4 and target takes -2 penalty to defense of my choice, EONT

Then shift south one more
And free action - shout bloody murder for Darganti and Lamsi, "WE NEED HELP HERE! NOW!"

19 vs. AC
6 DAM
-2 to AC

[Asharad]

Save vs death for last round
and this round

[Shiz]

Damelon death ST = 16

[DinbinFanfoom]

Round 10, Continued:

Still waiting on Erik's actions...

Crashing's condition remains static (Death Save 15: Success).

Sigurd seems to be creating quite a pool of blood (Death Save 4: Failure #1)

KT looks around frantically for allies and chops at the clubber in a desperate fashion. He manages to connect (ATK 19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6, Clubber is -2 AC until EoNT KT). He retreats further south.

Erik...

[Lycos]

Death Save

+16 for Barbarian awesomeness = 20. :D

[EricStratton]

Erik:

Standard: Dragonfrost on Clubber 2. (It has melee range due to Reaper's Touch feat)

Dragonfrost: 17+4 = 21 vs FORT
Dmg: 1d8+6 = 3+6 = 9 dmg and push target 1 square. I'd like to push him to P9.

Then if he can shift to N8, he'll do so. If not, he won't move.

[DinbinFanfoom]

KT takes a moment to howl plaintively for assistance from Darganti and Lamsi. Heck, or ANYONE at this point. The sounds of combat to the southwest have died down, he notices.

Erik is still perturbed by the pair of cannibals who are totally in his face. Almost instinctively, he fires a blast of cold energy at one of them (ATK 21 vs FOR: hit, DAM 9, Dead). Clubber 2 stiffens, blue, and falls over with a thud. He contemplates moving into the enclosure, but can't quite squeeze between the end of the bamboo wall and the remaining islander.

Clubber 4 swings at Erik in retribution and manages to connect (ATK 16 vs AC: hit, DAM: 6). Erik is badly bloodied.

Clubber 5 continues his relentless harassment of KT (ATK 21 vs AC: hit, DAM: 9) and nearly crushes the bard's shoulder. KT is also in very bad shape.

And Din - you ignored this last round?

[DinbinFanfoom]

And Din - you ignored this last round?Sorry, fixed.

[EricStratton]

Erik:

Last ditch effort, Erik casts his Daily on Clubber 4 taking the OA.

I just realized that if I hit and roll a 2 for dmg type I'm in trouble. :lowlol:

Chromatic Orb: +4 vs REF
If it's a hit: Dmg: 3d10+4 = 17+4 = 21 dmg
If it's a mis: Dmg: 1d10 = 4 dmg

Dmg type = 2 (Of course): 2. Red: Fire damage, and each creature adjacent to the target takes fire damage equal to your Dexterity modifier (+2). So Erik takes 2 dmg. /sigh.


Chromatic Orb
Attack: Charisma vs. Reflex
Hit: 3d10 + Charisma modifier (+4) damage. Roll a d6 to determine the attack's damage type and effect.
1. Yellow: Radiant damage, and the target is dazed (save ends).
2. Red: Fire damage, and each creature adjacent to the target takes fire damage equal to your Dexterity modifier (+2).
3. Green: Poison damage, and ongoing 5 poison damage (save ends).
4. Turquoise: Lightning damage, and you slide the target a number of squares equal to your Dexterity modifier (+2).
5. Blue: Cold damage, and the target is immobilized (save ends).
6. Violet: Psychic damage, and the target takes a -2 penalty to AC (save ends).

Miss: 1d10 damage. Roll a d6 to determine the attack's damage type and effect, as above.
Implement, Staff: +4 attack, 3d10+6 damage

[Asharad]

Verses death!

[Greebo]

OOC: "Hey Erik - maybe we can strike a deal with the cannibals - let them have the rest of the party if they let us run away!"

TO DM: I am NOT REALLY going to say that!

[EricStratton]

I just realized a rolled an even number for my attack roll so, if he survives the OA, Erik gets +1 AC until end of his next turn.

[DinbinFanfoom]

Erik pulls out all the stops. The clubber stands transfixed as the funny man in the dress chants for a bit. A kaleidescope of energies pour from the caster and surround the clubber. After about 3 seconds of this, the colours dissipate and the clubber seems... strangely entertained. (ATK 14 vs REF: miss, DAM: 4) After a brief moment, there is a backblast of flame and Erik is singed (DMG: 2). While Erik contemplates this turn of events, the clubber "thanks" him for the light show by clobbering him with his club (ATK 21-1 vs AC: hit, DAM: 10). Erik drifts off into a dream about grass-skirt-wearing island beauties.

Sigurd's blood pools some more. (Death Save 6: Failure #2)

Question can the huts corner be cut? If so, shift SE, not S.No, the hut is square.

KT finds himself alone and hurting on the battlefield. Feeling dread and frustration, he steps back, musters up the last of his bardly indignation and moxy and utters a string of expletives and epithets that would make a sailor blush. The clubber looks like a BIT of it might have registered (ATK 11 vs WIL: miss) but it maybe only the emotion of the outburst made it through.

Clubber 5, just wanting the bard to SHUT UP ALREADY, steps forward and helps KT do just that (ATK 19 vs AC: hit, DAM: 9).

A deathly quiet settles over the battlefield.

Loading, please wait...

[Greebo]

14 vs. ref misses? We're so hosed.

[EricStratton]

Teeeeeeechnically, the OA hits before the spell completes. So...whatever. :lowlol:

[Greebo]

Nice gaming with you...
