Ryuko's Runelords: Burnt Offerings (Inactive)

Game Master Ryuko

Well he could have had his weapon drawn when we entered the building. That's what I did. But otherwise he will have to wait until his turn in round 1 to activate arcane strike.

DM's ruling: No Swift Actions in Surprise rounds, and I'd assume Florin drew his weapon before you opened the door, when Rohan told you all that there were goblins aboot.

Before everyone busts through the door, Dorrak quietly says Try not to spread out too much. Looks like a big room. To Aria Keep distance and obstacles between you and them if you can, lass.

He nods to the others Hard and fast before they can sound an alert. And he gets ready to charge in behind Vulf, Rohan and Florin.

Ok to clarify Once Zelaria's spell goes through Vulf will charge nearest foe he can reach

Two of the goblins stop their destruction as the big glowy lady barges in, and simply stare at her weirdness.

Dorrak's Hammer goes astray as he rushes into the goblin, but both Vulf's blades and Copper's fangs find goblin flesh, finishing enemies quickly and efficiently.

Combat Order:Dorrak, Copper, Goblins, Zelaria, Rohan, Florin, Vulf

Meddlesome bastards! Dorrak growls as he recovers from the first miss and returns his hammer in a mid-level arc intending to crush its ribs.

Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
(Bonuses: +1 Inspire courage, +1 Racial)
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
(Bonus: +1 Inspire courage)

Unfortunately, he finds only air as the goblin evades the attack.

Copper growls as he unleashes his fury.

Claw 1
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Claw 2
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

1d3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Bite
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

His right claw and his teeth find purchase as he starts tearing apart the goblin facing him.

The goblins stop their smashing and eagerly turn to wreak havoc on longshanks instead of inanimate objects.

Two of the goblins throw nearby panes of glass at Zelaria and Florin. Florin deftly avoids his, but Zelaria is hit in the arm and shallowly cut.

Dorrak and Copper are attacked by goblins flailing red hot glass tongs from the fire. Copper narrowly avoids being scorched and Dorrak watches in bemusement as the creature attacking him hits and burns it's own leg.

Two of the creatures rush forward, but nearly trip over each other in their haste to get to Vulf, making their attacks easily avoided.

Two of the goblins continue to stare at Zelaria, their mouths moving in words in their own tongue.

Rohan calls upon his arcane magics to power his weapon and charges towards one of the goblins that threw glass at his friends.

Including Arcane Strike, Inspire Courage, and Charge
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

1d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

I just realized I must have had the ultra derp the passed few days if I've missed every opportunity to cast Mage Armor on myself. *sigh*

Zelaria retreats behind Dorrak for her move action, and then casts Mage Armor on herself to protect herself from getting hit by more goblins.

Hello, I will be your Int 14 sorceress who is operating at an Int 2 level...

Full round attack on the goblins surrounding Vulf

Vulf lashes out with his swords one blade swinging wildly at the tiny goblin but the back swing cuts down the goblins companion neatly coming up from the floor to cut it across the width of it's frail body.

1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 = 5 Goblin 1

1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 + 1 = 16 Goblin 2
Dmg1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Keep yerself behind me and sling yer spells, lass. Dorrak agrees as Zelaria moves behind him. He grinds his teeth and sends his hammer toward a goblin but once again finds no connection with the foul being.

ROUND 2
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Dorrack thought you should knw we still waiting on Florin for his first round action and your attack will fall on the second round :) sometimes it gets messy if people post for multiple turns that have yet to come :) haha sorry thought id catch ya before we have everyone else posting

Whoopsie. Guess I'm just thirsty for goblin blood :). I'll tag my post with a round 2 tag.

Swift: Activate arcane strike.
Full: Charge a glass thrower.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10 Rapier attack.

Florin rushes forward to engage one of the Goblins hurling glass. His strike is aimed too high and merely glances off the goblin’s side.

"Excellent work! Maintain the momentum, quick fellows press the attack. Do not give them a chance to regroup.”

Round 2

Copper continues to tear into the goblin that dared attack him.

Claw 1
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Claw 2
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Bite
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

The Scourge of Goblins proves his name true as he rips a part his foe. He growls as he looks to find a new goblin to wreck.

"AAAAaaahhhh!!!" Comes the almost girlish scream of the goblin Rohan charges, who attempts to hit him with a pane of glass.

Attack:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (10) - 2 = 8

The foe with the tongs will continue his assualt, attempting to singe Dorrak.

Attack:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1
DOH!

This time the goblin falls, and the tongs fall as well. Into his chest. The goblin screams for a while, then stops as smoke continues to well from under the corpse.

The remaining goblin sees that it's allies are dead and pales. "Oh Bondye, li nan moun yo ki te sispann atak la. Run!"

The goblin turns, throwing down it's dogslicer and charges away, heedless of the attacks it draws.

Round 2

Rohan charges after the fleeing goblin, not wanting to let it warn it's allies.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Rohan skewers the fleeing goblin.

Everyone else gets to go before the last goblin. Also, just one post ATM, still got no internet.

Round 3(?)

Dorrak rushes the last standing goblin with the intention of crushing him.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

But the face of his hammer finds only air as he swings and misses.

Slimey bastard! Get back here and pay for the trouble you've caused! He shouts in frustration.

is bored so i'll attack just for kicks haha

Vulf roars and charges after the remaining goblin.

Charge Attack1d20 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 13

Damage1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Feeling a deep sense of inadequacy, Dorrak looks around at the group.

I ... I can't help these people. Sadness overcomes him and tears fill his eyes. His shoulders slump, his hammer drops to the floor and his hands cover his face.

A voice enters his mind. Rid yourself of your impurities, Dorrak. Doubt, weakness, addiction. Fire. That is the answer.

Slowly he picks up his head, eyes wide, he begins walking toward the open furnace door. A growl turns into a roar as his pace quickens. Running toward the furnace he screams and jumps into the flames.

His voice becomes a short-lived pain-wracked yelp and fall silent as the flames take his body.
