Ba'az Astor, Fri, Jan 23, 2009, 12:24 AM

Best to tie him up, it won't hold him for long but long enough for us to find the cult before he could warn them.


Yrenn, Fri, Jan 23, 2009, 12:28 AM

Tie him up and leave him sandwiches. Most righteous.


Elmo, Fri, Jan 23, 2009, 12:32 AM

Jake's had a lot of influence over Elmo. Before they met, he'd probably have knocked our goblin chum out, kicked his teeth in, pinched anything useful and legged it. He now realises this isn't heroic behaviour. The sandwiches are his own idea though.


DM Dave, Fri, Jan 23, 2009, 06:09 AM

As Logan walks forward he can here the sounds of shuffling coming from the darkened room beyond, and a fetid air wafts from inside. However, the light from the torches in the tunnel does not illuminate the room at all.


Yrenn, Fri, Jan 23, 2009, 08:49 AM

"Wait," Yrenn whispers. She casts a spell of light into the darkness. I cast light onto the square immediately ahead of Logan.


Elmo, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 12:45 AM

"What is it?" Elmo sneaks closer to Logan.


DM Dave, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 03:39 PM

Yrenn's light spell provides shadowy illumination in the room beyond. Four partially decayed corpses shamble around and then begin to rush towards the shining light. Initative is: Yrenn Elmo Logan Jake Ba'az Zombies


Logan Draknir, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 04:26 PM

could we get an updated map that includes the undead? :) Thanks


Ba'az Astor, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 05:03 PM

added the ten Initiative rolls to my profile, looks like I will be going last for most combats.


Yrenn, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 06:05 PM

A scowl of disgust crosses Yrenn's face as she conjures a spell of cold. Standard Action : Ray of Frost against zombie closest to Logan 18 vs. Fort Damage 7, slowed until end of my next turn.


Yrenn, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 06:06 PM

Also, I'd like to be at D-11 when the action starts


DM Dave, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 07:28 PM

DM Dave, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 07:33 PM

Yrenn's spell strikes the zombie with a pale blue ray. The creature slows it's gait, but doesn't show any other signs of having been affected by the spell.


Ba'az Astor, Sat, Jan 24, 2009, 08:07 PM

Elmo, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 12:27 AM

Elmo scampers up the corridor to E12. "Come on Jake! You like undead."


Logan Draknir, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 09:49 AM

Logan delays his action until after the zombies go


Jake Nimbletoes, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 11:20 AM

"Ahem. I most certainly do not."


Elmo, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 12:15 PM

"You like demolishing them then. Same thing."


Jake Nimbletoes, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 12:31 PM

"We really must have a chat about the love/hate axis."


Elmo, Sun, Jan 25, 2009, 02:08 PM

"Later Jake. Fry them first." Elmo concentrates on the job in hand, his beady eyes focusing on the zombies.


DM Dave, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 07:22 AM

Updated map, waiting on Jake and Ba'az's actions. Note that I moved Yrenn so she could actually make her attack.


Yrenn, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 07:49 AM

If I'm at G11 then I might as well take an Action Point to cast another spell. Can zombies be affected by Sleep? The Monster Manual doesn't list immunity to Sleep.


Jake Nimbletoes, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 07:56 AM

They can indeed. As can skeletons. Perhaps they should rename it "Stasis" :D

Yrenn, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 08:36 AM

OK thanks for the ruling. I'll take an Action point to cast sleep on M16, which should cover all the zombies. 14 vs Will


DM Dave, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 08:39 AM

Yrenn, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 08:49 AM

1d20+4=11 1d20+4=20 1d20+4=21


DM Dave, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 11:26 AM

The zombies movements slow considerably Jake is Up Ba'az Zombies Logan


Jake Nimbletoes, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 12:48 PM

Move to D11. "Ah, now, chaps, it would be jolly helpful if I could get someone with a bit of oumph to guard me before I attempt to show these monstrosities the back door."


Elmo, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 01:02 PM

"Right behind you Jake. You turn them into ashes and I'll sweep them away."


Jake Nimbletoes, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 01:04 PM

"Er... um, right, old chum."


Ba'az Astor, Mon, Jan 26, 2009, 01:51 PM

Ba'az will rush forward to 12-J (reached weapon) and attack Z1 with his peircing strike. attack=18 damage=14 "Ioun will strip you of your undeath foul vermin".


DM Dave, Tue, Jan 27, 2009, 09:02 AM

Ba'az's strike pierces the chest of the zombie, which then shambles forward to attack him. Ba'az gets an OA. The first zombie swings and hits Ba'az with a solid punch. Then the second zombie shambles up on the other side and hits Ba'az as well. 1d20+6=26, 1d20+6=18 Ba'az takes a total of 19 damage from the zombies. Meanwhile the other two slump over as if they have had the strings holding them up cut. Logan is up Yrenn Elmo New Map!


Ba'az Astor, Tue, Jan 27, 2009, 03:06 PM

OA=22, damage=7 I am also blooded.


Logan Draknir, Tue, Jan 27, 2009, 09:06 PM

Logan streaks to behind Ba'az and stabs one sword at each zombie. Move: move to I12 Minor: hunter's quarry on Z1 Standard: Dire Wolverine strike against Z1 and Z2 1d20+7=23, 1d20+7=26; Damage 1d8+4=10; HQ Dam 1d8=6 Seeing the undead still standing, Logan lashes out again. Spend an action point. Standard: Twin Strike vs Z1 and Z2; Att: 1d20+7=9, 1d20+7=11; Dam: 1d8=4 "Ba'az, we really need to stop meeting like this." wink


Ba'az Astor, Tue, Jan 27, 2009, 10:16 PM

"Logan, I'll set 'em up you knock 'em down".


Yrenn, Tue, Jan 27, 2009, 11:01 PM

Standard Action : Magic Missle on Z1 I miss : 1d20+4=6


Elmo, Wed, Jan 28, 2009, 12:09 AM

"May I join you?" Elmo's remembers his manners and his blade glints with frost as he strides towards Z2 and jabs firmly at the monster. "Undead miscreant, stay!" Frigid Blade (AC) v Z2 (1d20 6=19, 1d8 4=10). On hit, Z2 is slowed to the end of Elmo's next turn. Moved to I11.


DM Dave, Wed, Jan 28, 2009, 06:06 AM

Logan's fierce assault slashes the first zombie to ribbons. As it collapse, the body disolves into dust. Elmo's strike does some visible damage to the second zombie and frost forms along the monster's limbs. Jake is up Ba'az Zombies Updated map forthcoming


DM Dave, Thu, Jan 29, 2009, 07:57 AM

Updated Map as promised


Ba'az Astor, Thu, Jan 29, 2009, 04:30 PM

Dependant on what Jake does: Ba'az uses his divine chalange on Z2, then shifts into square K-11 flanking it with Elmo. Attacks using Holy Strike; attack=25 Damage=8+2 points radiant damage.


Jake Nimbletoes, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 12:41 AM

move to J13. Light of Inspiration vs Z3. 1d20+3=10 vs REF, 1d8+3=9 radiant damage and Logan gains +2 power bonus to attack Z3 if my attack has hit. A crackling bolt that has an almost musical quality lances out at one of the other zombies, and Jake cries, "There are more over here!"


DM Dave, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 08:45 AM

Ba'az and Jake make short work of the second zombie and it too collapses into dust. The two remaining zombies continue to stand unmoving, like flesh covered statues. Logan is up Yrenn Elmo Map


Jake Nimbletoes, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 09:45 AM

I targetted Z3, not Z2.


DM Dave, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 10:48 AM

Woops, Z2 is still standing, flanked by Ba'az and Elmo.


Logan Draknir, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 11:45 AM

Seeing Jake move towards the other undead, Logan makes a backswing against the corpse next to him and then rushes toward the other undead. Minor: HQ on Z2 Standard: Hit&Run at-will attack power (moving out of first square doesn't provoke OA) 1d20+7=24, 2d8+4=13 Move: move through Jakes square to L15. "Smelly runts! At least they're not oozes."


DM Dave, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 01:40 PM

Okay, now Z2 is dead.


Yrenn, Fri, Jan 30, 2009, 05:28 PM

Standard : Magic Missle on Z3 8 vs Ref If I hit (ha ha) damage would be 9


Elmo, Sat, Jan 31, 2009, 12:52 AM

Elmo moves down the room, glaring at Z3. Move to K16. "Why isn't it moving Jake? Do you think the room is trapped?" He pauses, stares hard at Z3 and makes a gesture with his sword. "Anyway, it's mine when it does move." Aegis of Assault on Z3


DM Dave, Sat, Jan 31, 2009, 05:38 PM

Jake is up Ba'az Zombies
