Mel:
Alaric stirs, sleeping lightly these days. "Is it time?" he mutters.


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Alaric:
hmmm She sits back down on the bed next to him, "Milena was restless, woke me up." She smiles sleepily, "Z said Lio wants me to go out to celebrate her bachlorette-ness?" She doesn't seem horribly sure on this point, but she had been asleep not long before.

Mel:
Alaric collapses back onto the pillow. "All right. Have fun." He is back to sleep in seconds.

Round 3:
This assumes no-one cries for help to save Alaric.

Hrunndalf cuts his way through the remaining ninja in his sight and then plunges through the wind wall to join see whether any foes remain to be killed.

Using Blessing of Fervor to grant an extra attack. If I need to move before the attack (e.g. because the ninja next to me died or fled), I'd go for the +2 to hit/+2 AC instead.

Right now Koya and Buttersnips are outside, Melinda is in the Family Wagon, and Spivey and Myriana are in the Women's Wagon. The Captain of the Guard, with a drawn sword, is standing in the entranceway of the Family Wagon. About 20 feet away, there are three bowmen with bows drawn and arrows nocked. Two other guards are no longer present, having taken off running towards the Park.

Myri:

"Leave it on the bed, Spivey, maybe Buttersnips will bring it. We don't want to hurt the guards if we don't have too, but I think we should get back as soon as we can."

Myri hops down off of the wagon, and moves towards Koya her hands out obviously not carrying a weapon. |Our friends are being attacked, please, don't hurt Aunty.|

am assuming the quiver is slung across her back

Sleepy, a little confused, <You and Lio are joining up with a larger group?>

<Myriana and some others took Shalelu out ... we're making a grand big thing of it, now.>

She gives you directions to the location. As soon as you emerge from your room, your sleepy-looking retinue leaps to attention, working hard to banish all signs of fatigue from their faces.


Myriana, Liothonae, Melinda, Shalelu, Ameiko, Tollin, Zaiobe, Ulf, Jorun, and sixty-one servants:
As the drunken revelry continues into the night at Chip and Deva's, The extraordinarily unsober Myriana, Shalelu, Ameiko, and Tollin (and their entourages) are joined by others. Liothonae, Zaiobe, Ulf, and Jorun (and servants) show up likewise drunk, and Melinda (and servants), a bit later, shows up completely sober.

We can call the spoiler text "Chip and Deva's" from here forward, I think.


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Zaiobe/Kyrademon:
Mel smiles at the retinue, looking pretty tired herself. To four of them, |Will you please stay and here to ensure that nothing happens to Alaric, please?|

To Gansukh and two of the others, |And I was just asked to go to the <blank>, would you like to come?|

I hope you feel better soon. I miss talking to you :).


Melinda:
Alaric already has his own six servants independently of yours; they are already there and hanging around. Your own servants would not stay behind.

You can see the text above for where you are going.

And still sick. :P


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Kyrademon:
yep saw that, but honestly... Mel is too tired to go tromping... she was asking them to watch Alaric because she can only take 3 of her servants via dimension door... and she didn't want to walk ... however, if the servants make it clear that them serving her by guarding her defenseless mate is not acceptable to their contracts, Mel will acquiesce rather than get them in trouble.

However... because she really doesn't want to walk, she would probably dimension door herself and half of the servants over and let the other half met her there... because she is ridiculously pregnant at this time and it is late.

And I found out Beth is in South America too.. I'm so sorry about being a b*$!$ last night, esp since you did work hard to let me have that action.

... And I really hope that Z makes her concentration check to keep Alaric from dying... :) ~ since it is all Mel's fault if he dies since she stole all the healers :P


Melinda:
They will not stay behind. But bear in mind that historically, walled cities of a similar population tended to be a massive 1/4 of a square mile in size. This isn't Kalsgard; you probably have to walk a few blocks.

Chip and Deva's:
There is a massive cheer as each new person enters. When Melinda arrives, Ameiko says to Myriana, "See? ... Sober will be able to stay someone tonight." She nods wisely.

Shalelu gets up and gives Liothonae a warm embrace as soon as she enters. Zaiobe likewise takes Melinda in her arms as soon as the quarter-orc arrives.


Enemy and NPC Action:
1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 181d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 54d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 5, 5) = 161d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 161d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 34d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 4) = 161d20 + 11 ⇒ (1) + 11 = 121d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 34d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 5, 2) = 191d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 151d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 34d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 2, 6) = 111d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 221d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 44d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 6, 1) = 161d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 291d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 34d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 1, 1) = 91d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 271d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 44d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 6, 4) = 171d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 151d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 24d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 1, 3) = 13


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Kyrademon:
Tired, pregnant quarter-orc for whom using magic is innate. ... she almost teleported directly there, but didn't want the servants to get in trouble... But if you want her to have to walk, is okay. :)

And no rush, but did you see the post I did for the old portrait man?


Chip and Deva's:
This was probably covered earlier, but how is everyone dressed?

Mel hugs the harpy as she is embraced, looking a little more awake in the presence of the red-head. Seeing the level of inebriation she orders a round of drinks for everyone other than herself (including the 61 servants).


COMBAT – ROUND THREE

Part 1

The woman with the kukri continues to slash at one of the ninja standing over Alaric’s prone body, but she cannot land a blow on the agile assassin.

The small knot of blue people and elves move to interpose themselves between Liothonae and any danger.

Melinda:
<I won't screw up I won't screw up I won't screw up I won't screw up ...>

Zaiobe casts a healing spell and successfully makes her concentration check to avoid attack – but can she find Alaric’s prone body in the smoke? 1d5 ⇒ 4 Apparently she can.

Alaric heals 17 hit points. Alaric is conscious and prone with 6 hit points.

Alaric immediately channels positive energy.

Everyone wounded except Melinda and Myriana heals 26 hit points, as does one of the Ninja.

Reta is conscious and prone.

Alaric and Melinda:
Zaiobe's mind exudes a sensation of palpable relief.


COMBAT – ROUND THREE

Part 2

Sandru continues to jab with his improvised bottle, to no avail.

Myriana, Melinda, etc.:
Myri says, "Leave it on the bed, Spivey, maybe Buttersnips will bring it. We don't want to hurt the guards if we don't have too, but I think we should get back as soon as we can." Myri hops down off of the wagon, and moves towards Koya her hands out obviously not carrying a weapon, although a quiver is slung across her back. |Our friends are being attacked, please, don't hurt Aunty.|

Following Myri's last order, Silmemir moves to provide flanking on the nearest enemy ninja.

Myriana, Melinda, etc.:
Buttersnips examines the situation, and leaves the area.

Reta, lying prone next to her prone father, says to him, ”See, this why Reta not like ninjers so much.” Not bothering to get up, she jabs at one, but misses.


COMBAT – ROUND THREE

Part 3

Liothonae carefully moves around to the other side of the pack of people, and inscribes something in the ground in the windy column she has created.

Ameiko casts a healing spell upon herself.

Ameiko heals 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 hit points.

The raging Kelda charges the ninja that Rhost is fighting and stabs the foe in the arm with her shish-kebab.

Kalimac gives directions with hand signals and short commands in appropriate languages to his allies (old and new).

Using his Strategy ability, Kalimac grants the following bonuses:

Ameiko: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round
Helgarval: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round
Jorun: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round
Ukshakka: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round
Attatoq: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Bevelek: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Kalimac: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Kelda: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Liothonae: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Sandru: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Shalelu: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Silmemir: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Ulf: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Vankar: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Zaiobe: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Hrunndalf: move up to his speed as an immediate action once
Rhost: move up to his speed as an immediate action once
Skygni: move up to her speed as an immediate action once
The servant woman with kukri, the blue-skinned people and the elves on our side get: +2 morale bonus on all attack rolls for 1 round
Alaric: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round
Reta: +2 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round

For his part, Attatoq steps up to the next ninja in line to test him for tastiness. Attatoq bites the ninja thrice, dealing bloody damage – but it is the ninja Alaric just accidentally healed, who is still up for battle.

Shalelu casts a spell upon Skygni.


COMBAT ROUND THREE

Part 4

The ninja Attatoq just bit, who had moved into the wind in an attempt to slaughter Alaric, attempts to resist its force.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

And that's a no.

Meaning that ninja is blown past Sandru (stab), Attatoq (chomp), Reta (jab), Hrunndalf (slash), and finally over the explosive symbol Liothonae just drew on the ground in his likely path (kaboom).

There is not really a lot left of the ninja at the end of the trip.


COMBAT – ROUND THREE

Part 5

The ninja who did the actual attacking of Alaric last round attempts once more to bring him low. Without a dancing partner to flank, however, the ninja is significantly less effective.

Alaric takes 6 hit points of damage.

Hrunndalf plunges through the wind wall as an immediate action to join see whether any foes remain to be killed. He discovers that the answers is yes, and swings his newly-adopted weapon at the woman, slicing into her multiple times.

The ninja attemps to return the favor with her own katana, slashing at him with two mighty blows. Well, “mighty” may be an overstatement.

Hrunndalf takes 11 hit points of damage.

Ulf swings his bottle at the ninja he fights along with the barbarians and Silmemir, and connects.

That ninja steps back and commits suicide.

Skygni chomps a badly wounded ninja to death.

Melinda, Myriana, etc.:
Looking disgusted, Koya tosses the weapons she is carrying back into the wagon.

Melinda:
See insible is cast upon you. ”Wankers,” Suishen says in regard to the guards.

Melinda, Myriana, etc.:
Melinda’s Fort Save Against Poison: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Melinda takes 1d2 ⇒ 2 Strength damage.

Mel drops Suishen back on her bunk. |Fair enough| she says to the guard, |I'm going to go wait with Koya.| And then she walks out to where Koya is.

Melinda dimension doors the four of you back. Since none of you carry offensive weapons, the guards to not attempt to disrupt the spell by shooting her, but instead lower their bows at the Captain’s command.

Melinda, Myriana, Koya, and Spivey appear back on the battlefield.

These ninjer suicides make Rhost angrier. He moves to the last one as an immediate action and attempts to pummel that ninjer into unconsciousness before it can kill itself.

He succeeds.

But from the attack of opportunity before the ninja goes down, Rhost takes 4 hit points damage.

Seven ninjas are dead, and one lies unconscious on the ground.

Combat rounds are over.

Melinda -40 hit points, -1 Strength drain, -5 Strength damage, still poisoned
Hrunndalf -11 hit points
Alaric -32 hit points
Liothonae -1 Strength drain, -1 Strength damage
Ameiko -17 hit points, -1 Strength drain, -1 Strength damage
Myriana -2 hit points, -21 nonlethal, prone
Rhost -4 hit points


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Kyrademon:
... ummm I should have rolled that concentration check... because Mel goes before Koya, right?

I should have made it clear that Mel was intending to ignore the guard re Rhost and Kelda's weapons. Sorry...

If it makes a difference Concentration 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 33

of course since combat is over... i guess it doesn't matter


Desnus 2 - Post Combat

The woman with the kukri takes an action to conceal it once again within her garments. Then she throws herself at Amieiko's feet.

"Princess Amatatsu," she says in Taldane. "Last living descendant of the goddess Shizuru that walks upon this world! You have allies as well as enemies in these lands. Those I serve sent me here to protect you. They would very much like to meet with you in the Forest of Spirits, where they may be able to point you towards information which could help you in your holy quest to take your rightful place as Empress of all Minkai!"

"Oh," says Ameiko, a bit taken aback. "Well. Um. You see ..."

At this point, a small army of Palace Guards finally arrive upon the scene, swords and bows drawn.

|What is the meaning of this?| one of them shouts. |Drop your weapon immediately!| he yells at Hrunndalf (if the Oracle has not already done so.)


Melinda:
There is still time for me to go back and quickly readjust that if I misunderstood your action. Would you prefer me to?


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Kyrademon:
It's fine. I should have been more clear. It just looks like Mel is an useless idiot who can't do anything right this combat, other than take the healers away from combat to do... nothing.

I would prefer it if I had been able to teleport the weapons back because I didn't know that combat would be done, but if it is a pain, you don't have to.

Rhost drops out of Rage. "Awkward," he pants, and moves to tie up the unconscious ninjer -- lest he or she wake up and try to commit suicide.


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Mel walks over to Alaric looking disappointed and disgusted with herself. Which grows into near panic when she sees how badly injured he is.

...once the ninjer's tied up, is there any meat left on the skewer that Kelda stabbed the ninjer with?


Melinda:
Since the alternative as things were playing out was probably not "bring (more) weapons back with you" - Myriana is actually carrying a few surreptitiously - but far more likely "get in a fight with the Palace Guards", I will leave as is, then.

Rhost Mab-i-gof wrote:

All of it, although it has been pushed back a bit.

Rhost:
In tying up the ninja, you notice that her tongue has been cut out of her mouth.

Surveying the aftermath, Kalimac tut-tuts, "Kohutav, mida läbib jaoks mõrvar nendel päevadel."

"Everyone alright?"

Halfling:
"Terrible what passes for a ninja these days."


Male Half-elf Barbarian

Desnus 2 - Post Combat

"You want?" Rhost asks Kelda, gesturing to the meat on the skewer.

GM:
Rhost knows that Alaric can do some creepy stuff reading minds, but Rhost is most disturbed because it means the ninjer can't taste food.


Female Quarter-Orc Sorcerer

Kyrademon:
Fort saves vs poison? Not sure about duration, but I'll roll for 10 rounds? Just in case that part gets missed.
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10; Str damage 1d2 ⇒ 2 so -1 drain, -7 damage
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15; Str damage 1d2 ⇒ 2 so -1 drain, -9 damage
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16; Str damage 1d2 ⇒ 2 so -1 drain, -11 damage
... and I don't think you can go under 0 Str ... so if it comes to that:

Mel grows paler, and slumps over Alaric, unable to move, unconscious.

Is it totally wrong that this *really* amuses me? :)

And I hope that your body fights off the horrible microbes that are trying to destroy you.

Lio leans forward, her breasts rub against your breasts, her skin moves against your skin. She's warm, soon glistening with a light sheen, her body undulating against yours as she makes love to you. Her hips move with a slow, sensual rhythm, thrusting in and out, rubbing against your clit, which slowly builds you to new heights, never quite letting you over the edge, rather, building and building, higher and higher, until you think you might loose your mind, until all there is are the feelings she is evoking within you.

Lio holds Shae tightly for a moment, and whispers something into her ear,

what Myri is wearing since somebody asked a while back:

Myri is wearing a dark blue, satiny, slim fitted dress that matches the blue geam in her hair. She is wearing a topaz and silver necklace, anklet and earrings and her hair is done up with a comb that is made with vines of polished silver, adorned with clear crystals in the shape of flowers, leaves and droplets. It looks like she actually took some time to put herself together, which is rather rare, though some wisps of hair seem to have escaped during the nights carousing.

Lio grins, giving Shae a very satisfied look. Then she smiles a little shyly over at the blue people and elves, who had put themselves between the danger and herself.

As Alaric channels, Hrunndalf starts casting Lesser Restoration on those suffering from poison damage, starting with Melinda.

This should help against the Strength damage from poison, but not against the Strength drain. On that matter, Hrunndalf is not listed above as suffering from Strength drain, but I seem to remember that he is.

Assuming he realizes she is still poisoned, he also hands Melinda a dose of antitoxin.

"Oh," says Ameiko, a bit taken aback. "Well. Um. You see ..."

"Thank you for defending us," Hrunndalf adds, "but may we ask you to treat this matter with discretion?"

At this point, a small army of Palace Guards finally arrive upon the scene, swords and bows drawn.

|What is the meaning of this?| one of them shouts. |Drop your weapon immediately!| he yells at Hrunndalf (if the Oracle has not already done so.)

|With pleasure,| grumbles Hrunndalf as he drops the katana from outstretched fingers with a measure of disgust. |The meaning of this is that you failed your duty. You allowed a band of assassins into our midst, and we paid for your incompetence in blood.|

As Alaric channels, Hrunndalf starts casting Lesser Restoration on those suffering from poison damage, starting with Melinda.

This should help against the Strength damage from poison, but not against the Strength drain. On that matter, Hrunndalf is not listed above as suffering from Strength drain, but I seem to remember that he is.

Lio frowns at Hrunndalf, in Halfling she says "please do not accuse these people of incompetence, it will only get our servants punished."

Hrunndalf made his saving throw against poison and suffered no strength drain or damage.

Miyaro shoots Hrunndalf a peculiar look. "So you are saying I should not have put up all of those posters around town?" she asks. "I suppose hiring the brass band was a bit much."

The Guardsman turns gray at Hrunndalf's words. |My apologies, honored guest,| he says. |Your revulsion at our behavior will not go unheeded, I assure you. I shall see that myself and all others responsible for this failure are punished appropriately.|

He turns to a man standing next to him. "Kapitenit është i juaji tani. Ju lutem tregoni gruan time kam dashur atë."

Hongali:
"The Captaincy is yours now. Please tell my wife I loved her."

Then he walks away.

The man he spoke to, his face carefully expressionless, faces all of you. |Do any of the assassins remain at large? Did any flee?|

Lio grins, giving Shae a very satisfied look. Then she smiles a little shyly over at the blue people and elves, who had put themselves between the danger and herself.

|Thank you for your help and your courage.| She says softly, |Are any of you hurt?| She offers to heal any who need it.

|You are welcome, Seeker,| one of the elves replies. |We are uninjured; I do not think any of us were the primary targets.|


Liothonae, or Chip and Dev's and Perception DC 28:
"It sounds as if you have been having a tremendously exciting party," Shalelu replies, smiling.


Liothonae and Hrunndalf:
I need to ask Melinda a question before I know if anyone notices she is still poisoned. Liothonae, once you made your save, the poison no longer affected you further.

Melinda:
You've implied that Melinda does not tell anyone she is still poisoned; is this the case?

Surveying the aftermath, Kalimac tut-tuts, "Kohutav, mida läbib jaoks mõrvar nendel päevadel."

Ameiko nods. "Mäletan tagasi, kui ninja oleks lõks teile põletamine paadi ja tõsiselt jama sulle. See oli lihtsalt kurb. Alanev standardite ninja koolid, ma arvan."

Halfling:
"I remember back when a ninja would trap you on a burning boat and seriously mess you up. This was just sad. Declining standards in the ninja schools, I think."


Chip and Deva's:
Ameiko is dressed up as well, in a silk dress with a Mandarin collar. It is black with patterns of willow branches in white. Everyone else is dressed fairly casually.

Hrunndalf's annoyance dissipates in an instant, and is replaced by a mild worry. He replies in Halfling, "Oh, right."

Hrunndalf's look of worry grows in magnitude. |Wait,| he calls after the guard. |I spoke rashly. The only ones deserving of punishment were these murderous worms, and they received their due. In fact, it's probably in everyone's best interest if we agree that you and your people did most of the work here.|

In a more conspirational tone, he adds, |You might want to bloody your swords before your superiors arrive.|

Hrunndalf raises an eyebrow at her. "A bit much? You know an Empress deserves no less than a platinum band."
