Jasper Eleventoes |
Jasper moves, gathering his spell components once more. As he comes around the end of the bushes near Oliver, he suddenly turns and cast an arc of rainbow color in the wrong direction and yells "Hah!" as another goblin is awash in brilliant color.
"Adalwin - there is something else, sneaking up behind us. I thought it was Oliver I heard, but he wasn't moving yet..."
Exact move dependent on specific position of target, but I was thinking I6 if I could hit him without provoking, coming around the right side of the vegetation on the map. Color spray, will DC 14 negates.
DM Mothman |
The big goblin averts its eyes against the burst of dazzling colours from Jasper’s spell, snarls, then stalks towards the diminutive orc-kin, morning star swinging.
Attack v. Jasper: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
The badly wounded goblinoid takes a step away from Adalwin towards his snoring companion, the strikes desperately at Eljoy.
Attack v. Eljoy: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
The sleeping enemy snorts and begins to stir slightly … Correct me if I’m wrong but I think it’s due to awaken on Anor’s next turn.
Edit: crit confirm v. Jasper: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
DM Mothman |
Adalwin MacFaine |
Not sure if these are still needed, but here are the checks you asked for Moth
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Local Knowledge: 1d20 ⇒ 4
Adalwin is about to step after the hobgoblin attacking Eljoy, when he hears Jasper cry out. Whirling around, the young man makes his decision quickly, rushing to his small friends aid.
Move to I5 and power attack
Attack: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 6 - 1 + 1 = 23
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 9
Anor |
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think it’s due to awaken on Anor’s next turn.
Correct.
As Lightning flies around overhead cawing, Anor stalks forward muttering. As she finishes her move she points at the goblin in combat with Eljoy.
move to O6, cast misfortune on B1. B2 should wake now.
Eljoy Skinner |
Eljoy shakes his head at his foe. "Not enough you sumb$%+#!" His shield drives at the hobgoblin's face, but that's merely a feint for the ax sweeping in under it.
Ax v B1, rage, inspire: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 28 ... damge: 1d8 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 16
Jasper Eleventoes |
Would someone be so good as to hand me my spleen? I think it landed over there. Thanks.
The little fellow shrieks an uncharacteristically loud shriek as he realizes his spell has failed and what's about to happen is going to HURT, followed by a sickening thud and silence as the wind is driven from his frail form at the impact. He stays on his feet, but only just.
Oliver Hoffman |
Oliver's decision is a simple one. Jasper was hurt badly, but he can't allow it to get the others worried. "Stay strong, we will end them in no time, just stand your ground." He quickly focuses his connection to the gods of good, and pushes that energy into the halfling.
Free, Maintain Inspire
Standard, CLW (oracle) on Jasper 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
Move, put away crossbow
Jasper Eleventoes |
I will gratefully second that - thank you, Oliver!
Jasper steps back, closer to Oliver, glancing gratefully his way, before conjuring up a ball of acid to fling at the goblin.
Touch attack: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 - 4 = 20
Acid damage: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Confirmation roll: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 - 4 = 19
Acid damage: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Jasper feels like a surge of energy comes directly from his blood and powers the orb directly into his target's face. Poetic license - TAKE THAT!
Adalwin MacFaine |
Heartened by Jaspers quick recovery and no doubt aided by his counter attack, Adalwin is easily able to avoid the creatures wild swing. "Great shot Jasper!"
The young man swings again, hoping to put down the hobgoblin for good.
Power attacking again
Attack: 1d20 + 6 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 6 - 1 + 1 = 15
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 10
Eljoy Skinner |
Seeing the hobgoblin try to stand, Eljoy draws close to loom over him and deliver a crushing blow.
Ax, AoO v B2, rage, inspire: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 29... damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 11
Crit confirm: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21 ... damage: 2d6 + 16 ⇒ (6, 3) + 16 = 25
He's on a roll.
Eljoy Skinner |
Eljoy plants a foot on one of the corpses.
"These're the best kinda hobbies. Dead. Nice work everyone." He gives Adalwin a small smiled nod, then like after most fights, slumps and staggers a little.
"I'm getting a little too old for this s$!%."
2 rounds of rage used today.
Jasper Eleventoes |
Jasper spins on his heel and moves to view the spot where something had been sneaking up on Oliver. "There was another, sneaking about. Don't let your guard down yet."
Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24
Adalwin MacFaine |
Adalwin looks over in Eljoy's direction, gaping when he realises the man has taken down both of the enemies there.
"Wow... that was ... wow."
Jaspers words draw his attention back to the present danger, and he peers in the direction Jasper indicates. Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Who is there? Show yourself!"
Am I remembering correctly that the 2 initial bugbears were standing over something or someone? Can we now see who or what that is?
DM Mothman |
Another corpse lies on the forest floor near the bugbears that Eljoy has felled; a human male, dressed in the manner of a Falcon’s Hollow forester, his head staved in.
Eljoy Skinner |
Eljoy's gaze had drooped to the human corpse, but jerks back up. His head swivels around in the direction Adalwin is pointing.
"Where?"
perception: 1d20 ⇒ 3
Know local to ID the forester, untrained: 1d20 ⇒ 3
Note to self: Check the bodies for loot when we get a chance.
DM Mothman |
A face peers around the side of a tree trunk in the direction that Jasper and Adalwin have indicated. It looks like a human girl, perhaps in her early teens. Her wide green eyes dart about behind the tangle of mouse-brown hair that falls partly across her face. There are twigs and brambles matted into her hair and her face is hollow-cheeked and smudged with dark stains.
“Are … are they all gone?” she asks hesitantly, her voice raspy.
Eljoy Skinner |
Eljoy steps up behind Reekis. "He's right you can't trust the fey."
Then he slaps the back of Reekis' head. "But that's just a little girl. What the f~%~ were you thinking?"
Adalwin MacFaine |
Adalwin seems to look past Reekis, a far away expression on his face. "Is a tree spirit more human looking, or more ... tree like?"
Seeming to shake himself out from his reverie, he comes back to the present. "Err..." The young man clears his throat and turns to face the girl. "Are you Kimi? From Falcons Hollow?"
Eljoy Skinner |
"Reekis is right. Find out who she is and where the others are. We best find those kids and get them home before dark. She can eat while we walk," Eljoy says even as he steps away from the clearing. At the wood's fringe he looks at Adalwin and jerks his head in invitation.
He will have a look around, especially for tracks .
Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 9
Survival, tracking: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Adalwin MacFaine |
Adalwin reaches into his pack for some of his rations, dried meat and hard biscuits. "It's not much, put you are welcome to them. Who ever you are, your safe now. These guys will look after you while we have a look around."
Diplomacy: 1d20 ⇒ 5
That said, Adalwin heads after Eljoy, trying to contain his own emotions at seeing the distraught girl. Gods, I hope that forester wasn't her father or something...
The young man crosses back and forth after Eljoy, trying to assist in his efforts to pick up the trail of the kids again.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Aid Another Survival, tracking: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Jasper Eleventoes |
Surprised at being asked, Jasper thinks, frowning in concentration. "Miss, much I'd like to sit at a nice fire and hear your story so we can find your family, I think our gruff friend is right - we need to keep moving, looking for the other missing children... Oh! Have you seen them, by chance?"
He moves over to the fallen forester and starts checking his pockets. "He may have family in Falcon's Hollow, too. We should bring them news of his passing and anything he might have wanted them to have."
Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24
