"Reaver! Amgylchynwch iddo, fy ffrind!!!" he tells the roc.

Dwarven:
"Surround him, me friend!"


Totally missed he was on delay.

Skyreaver flies down and flanks with the dwarf, attacking the orc.

The roc responds to the dwarf's call by circling around over Marikel's head and filling the gap in the barricade. It snaps at the half-orc, and its beak comes away bloody as the half-orc collapses to the ground.

Marikel rushes past the fallen orc at its companion following behind. (AN63)

Marikel's blade carves a bloody line up the female half-orc's arm. "Gaan! Waarsku die ander!" she shouts to her trailing companion.

The other half-orc turns and heads quickly down the hill.

Female Human Rogue 4

Alicia spins on her heel as her companions engage her pursuers. Catching sight of one fleeing away, she darts back the way she came, drawing a small hand-sized crossbow as she moves.

Double-move to AN59, drawing her hand crossbow as part of one move action.

"Don't let that one in the back escape! He's going to warn more of them! Marikel, there's a Patrolman behind the well--he might still be alive," she calls.


By my (and MapTool's) count, that's a 55-foot-move, Ali. She can make it to AN58 or AM59 if you want to; just let me know to move her.

Alicia gives chase to the retreating half-orc.

In answer to Ali's directive, Vhailor moves to the edge of the barricade and, taxing the wand's range to its utmost, sends an arcane bullet speeding after the half-orc.

The female whom Marikel cut bares her teeth, drawing a greataxe from a sling across her back, and slashes wickedly at the priest, but his armor turns the blade.

"You got it, lass!" Dorn then takes off in said direction. "Reaver! Ewch yn cael iddo! Torrwch oddi ar ei ddianc!"

Dwarven:
"Go get him! Cut off his escape!"

Double move to AK 57. I believe that's 60'. If not, move me as close as possible to there.

Skyreaver takes off in the direction of the fleeing half-orc, passing him by and hovering in the path of the humanoid at a distance that is just beyond him, awaiting for him to come near.

Fly speed is 80': Double move(Probably just go with 15' beyond him)


Dorn also gives chase to the fleeing half-orc, but Skyreaver quickly overtakes his master.

Dorn, "head him off at the pass" doesn't seem to fall under the rubric of any of the tricks Reaver knows. You could "push" him to do it, but that would require a move action, rather than a free action. I'm treating this as a Flank command. In future, when you're handling your companion as a free action, could you indicate which trick you're using in the OOC? You can always use a move action and Handle Animal to get him to do more elaborate things.

"How did you make it this far? Because you're not getting any further."
Marikel steps around his opponent (AM63) and swings wide with his sword, trying to keep his shield between himself and the greataxe.

Masterwork Longsword: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11


"We don't have to get any further," she growls back, "only wait for the front gate to fall and cut off the defenders as they retreat."

Dorn:
Now that you have advanced as far as the well, you can see that the smoke you saw earlier is coming from the branches of three bare trees down the road which have been set aflame. You also see the body of a Patrolman slumped against the west side of the well.

Alarmed by the flapping of large wings approaching his shoulder, the fleeing half-orc dodges, ducks, and weaves toward the door of a nearby building.

Alicia draws her rapier and moves to stab the overly-talkative female half-orc in the back.

Move to AM62.

The female half-orc coughs and looks down in surprise as the tip of Ali's rapier protrudes bloodily from the front of her throat. As Alicia withdraws the thin blade, however, somehow the half-orc does not fall.

Instead, she turns on her heel and brings the head of her axe down in a vicious chop that slices open a gash on Ali's leg. Only then does the half-orc teeter and fall onto the blood-spattered road.

"Alicia!!"
Marikel reaches for her then stops.
"I mean, will you be okay, Miss Alicia?"


Seeing the half-orc about to enter the building, Dorn shakes his head, "Oh no ya don't, lad," and charges at him, hoping to get to him before he enters. "Reaver! Ymosodiad!"

Dwarven:

The dwarf charges, bringing his warhammer down heavily on the fleeing half-orc, who collapses limply in a heap under the blow.

Combat over


As the half-orc falls, the dwarf grins, proud of himself. Turning toward the others, "I GOT 'EM! WE'RE GOOD!" he yells toward the others, nodding. He just now remember something, "PADRE! THERE'S A LAD ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE WELL WHO'S FALLEN! YA MIGHT WANT TA CHECK ON HIM!" Turning back to the fallen half-orc, "Alright, let's see what ya got that we may be useful to us, hm?" He then rummages through the belongings of the humanoid.

Skyreaver lands next to him and rests a moment, preening himself while he does.


hp 36 / 36; AC 19; Init +1 Male Human Cleric 4

"SHUT UP! There's more!" hisses Marikel towards the Dwarf.
With a quick glance at Alicia, he darts forward to where he can see the fallen figure behind the well. He murmurs a quick prayer to Iomedae and points to the fallen warrior, before turning back to Alicia's fallen opponent and doing the same.

Move to AI59 and cast stabilise this round on the fallen patrolman. Next round, stabilise the orc.


Gnome Wizard (Familiar Adept) 3

Apologies for flakiness

Vhailor keeps close by Marikel, trusting in the taller ones actions to both keep him safe as well as provide best means of guidance with respect to how to proceed. Carbonel appears more animated than usual... preening himself and presenting predatory nature.

Dorn finds that, besides his weapons and armor, the fallen half-orc has a vial in his pouch; the dwarf has just picked it up curiously when the door in front of which his victim fell opens, revealing more half-orcs.

One quickly moves to stand over the fallen half-orc on the doorstep, swinging a battleaxe at the dwarf from behind a wooden shield.

Dorn, you acquired a vial from enemy #1 and can also have one of these three weapons: dagger, greatsword, or longspear. Marikel, you cast stabilize on the Patrolman and enemy #3. Vhailor, you moved near Marikel and can take one more round of actions if you wish. Alicia, you have two rounds of actions to take before the door opens: you can take two items from the female half-orc (she has weapons and vials) or do something else.


Female Human Rogue 4

Alicia gives the fallen half-orc a nudge with her boot, then loads her hand crossbow and keeps an eye out for trouble up the road. "Do you want me to run tell the guards at the gate?" she asks Marikel.

Ready vs appearance, if that's possible.


Alicia Dawnblade wrote:
Ready vs appearance, if that's possible.

Sure, although from your current position, you'd be at a -4 to hit for range, as well as the enemy having soft cover from Dorn. I presume you'd want a clearer shot than that as a trigger?


Gnome Wizard (Familiar Adept) 3

Vhailor sees Dorn assailed and quivers with thought and anticipation, he turns to Marikel and queries "Should we go there or draw Dorn back?"

Delay until after Marikel.

"SHUT UP! There's more!" hisses Marikel towards the Dwarf.

With a quick glance at Alicia, he darts forward to where he can see the fallen figure behind the well. He murmurs a quick prayer to Iomedae and points to the fallen warrior, before turning back to Alicia's fallen opponent and doing the same.

Turning his attention in the direction of the healer as he says something, a questioning look forms as he turns his attention to Skyreaver. "What did he say? 'Shut the door' or something?" Shrugging, he returns to the task at hand finding a vial and multiple weapons. "Ooh, a spear. That'll come in handy." After retrieving it, he stands up and the next thing he sees is the door open and a number of half-orcs behind it. Sighing, "Aw crap. But the door was already shut! That just doesn't make sense!" Dorn retreats back and calls for Skyreaver to follow him as he does.

Withdraw to AH 54

Also calling Skryreaver to come to him. Which would be one of his tricks.

The roc takes to the air and follows the dwarf.

Fly to AI 53


Surprised by the new enemies, Dorn moves toward the others to regroup and commands Skyreaver to follow.

Dorn withdraws

Dorn, Skyreaver will comply on his initiative, right after Alicia's turn. For ease of slotting in the new arrivals to the combat, I just went back to the party's original initiative rolls before the delays and readys.

Ali, the lead half-orc out the door now has no soft cover, and a 30-foot-move in his direction will reduce your range penalty with the hand crossbow to -2.


Female Human Rogue 4

"Too late," Alicia says offhandedly to Marikel as she spots the new orcs. The rogue dashes forward, pausing only long enough to fire the crossbow in her hand.

Move to AJ55.

1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 - 2 = 18
1d4 ⇒ 3


Ali, I'm going to move you to AI57 instead because AJ55 puts Dorn back between you and your target as soft cover.

Ali moves closer and shoots, her tiny bolt burying itself in the flesh of the half-orc's upper arm neatly despite the distance.

Skyreaver obeys Dorn's command and retreats to his side.

Vhailor waits to see what the priest will do.

Vhailor moves up in Marikel's shadow, focusing his thoughts and readying a dazing invective against the first of the orcen that might emerge with painful intent...

Move to AH,58 - ready to cast daze (DC 13) against the first orc that draws within range (30ft)


Vhailor follows the priest, readying his own spell.

The visible half-orc retreats into the building, trying to get away from both the magic weapon and Alicia's stinging bolts.

As he vacates the doorway, another half-orc charges through, holding a battleaxe in one hand and drawing a javelin with the other, which he throws toward the dwarf.

Two more half-orcs emerge from the building and take up positions on either side of the javelin-thrower, one brandishing a scimitar and another a shortspear, both carrying shields.

Dropping his head in frustration, he looks back up, clearly annoyed, "Aw c'mon, ya just gonna stand there and throw things?! That's pathetic!" Dorn moves toward the half-orc on the edge, yelling at Skyreaver as he does. "Reaver! Amgylchynwch bod un!" he says, motioning to the one he swings his hammer at when he nears him.

Ali advances parallel to the half-orcs, reloading her hand crossbow as she goes. Move to AH51.

With a rush of blood and vigor, Vhailor follows in Marikel's wake - drawing near enough that he can reach out with arcane thought and intent to touch one of the brutes intangibly. Focusing mind through thought and gaze he murmurs and wills it's mind quiescent.

Move to AE,55 and daze on Orc #6 (DC 13 negate).


The scimitar-wielding half-orc uses the recklessness of the priest's charge to find an opening and draw blood, but it is the last thing he does, as the longsword slashes open his gut and he tumbles atop his entrails to the ground.

Marikel's spiritual weapon cycles quiescently in mid-air, waiting for further direction.

Vhailor attempts to daze the middle half-orc, but his arcane gambit is thwarted by his foe's adrenaline.

Dorn:
You sense that Skyreaver is aware of danger inside the structure: likely the roc can see the retreated half-orc that's out of sight of the rest of you. It hasn't fled entirely. You may make a Perception check to try and see Enemy #7.

The half-orc with the battleaxe takes a step back toward the shelter of the building before swinging at Marikel, wielding his battleaxe in both hands; he slips on a loop of his fallen comrade's intestines, however, and the potentially dangerous blow goes well wide of the priest.

The spear-wielding half-orc jabs again at Dorn, this time piercing tough dwarven flesh, before stepping back in pace with his companion.

Grimacing in pain, the dwarf shakes his head at the back stepping half-orc. "Oh no ya don't! Ya cannot just stick me and run, lad." The dwarf moves right into the midst of them with a ton of confidence from who knows where, in an attempt to give himself a better chance to get revenge against the one who stuck him like a pig.

By my count, you can't reach either. It's 15 feet of movement to AE50, and using Acrobatics to move through a threatened square without provoking an AoO requires you to move at half-speed so moving into the next square takes her to 25 feet and she'd need 10 more feet for the next square. But there's nowhere for her to stop in the row past AE50 because Dorn, Marikel, and Enemy #5 are occupying those squares. She can end in AE48, 49, or 50; let me know which you prefer.

Alicia joins the scrum and stabs at the spear-wielding half-orc, but the tip of her rapier scrapes across his wooden shield.

Marikel attempts to finish off the final visible enemy, but neither his physical longsword nor the spiritual one can penetrate the defenses of the half-orc wielding the battleaxe. After its final pivoting slash, the spiritual weapon winks back out of existence.
