Works for me. Pardon while I curl up and cry for a little bit from the stress.

Sniffle, Sob.

Evil GM

John you notice a glint on the wharf that is in the middle of the harbor. It looks like metal that caught a reflection.

---
Sunny there are no wagon nearby wagons.

There is a sudden fog that engulfs the docks.

I'll roll out initiative's later and place a map with the fog.

Sunny wanders about the side streets looking for the wagons her friend said might be about...When the fog suddenly settles over the area...

(^_^):
Since she has more than the 'One Ki point in her pool' in regards to 'Acrobatics' she should be able to standing jump up onto any awnings or such that are eight feet from the ground, hence from there find another vantage point above the fog and cover a horizontal jump of easily 15 'feet. This should enable her to simply 'spring' and 'bounce' her way both back to and above the party. Looking down upon others who are approaching under the cover of said fog.

The sound of Sunny's laugh echoes strangely through the fog. (^_^)

"It might be best to just make a break for it. We know who you spread the rumor to, so the fact that we are being ambushed gives us an idea of who may have arranged it, right?"
Evil GM

For those trying not identify the spell, it is an arcane fog cloud cloud that is centered on John's massive shield that is on his back. it spreads out in a 20 ft radius. Sunny when you get up on higher ground you don't see your comrades under the fog but you do see a second cloud at the end for the dock where you came from. All vision, including darkvision is obscured beyond 5 ft. Sunny you see three people in the two crows nest in the ship that is moving out of harbor.

It is eerily quiet except for water lapping on the docs and the few dockworkers by those crates. They are muttering profanity under there breath.
HP 30/ 30; Perc +3; Init +4; AC 20(21)Defensive:23

Questions:

Can Sunny tell where her friends are? Can she hear their speech/conversations?

Perception:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

The ship that is moving? Is it the one WITH the cargo? Where most has 'silence' eerily about it (Since the spell is kind of localized)

Acrobatics check:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

With that sort of roll Sunny is bouncing around the roof tops like a flea. Trying to get above the second area of fog and catch a glimpse of what might be going on underneath. Or maybe catching a glimpse of people as they move from one cloud to another.

Att Roll:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

To throw a 'Thunderstone' into the trailing end of the second fog cloud. More to possibly alert the party to a direction of attack, than make any possible enemy under there watch out behind them, sort of thing.

Bluff:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

To maybe shake up any bad guys with her actions (^_~)

Lucrezia tries to listen for the sound of anyone attempting to charge and them to engage in melee. She knocks an arrow and holds her bow at the ready.
Evil GM

The sound of a harbor bell rings. There is cackling voice coming from behind you perhaps where the floating docks are, you are not 100 percent certain. Strange laughter .

Sunny you don't see anything in the fog, its too dense.

Well, anyone laughing like that ain't a friend to me.

Lucrezia lets a couple of arrows fly towards that direction, hoping to get lucky or at least worry the mage or whoever the hell it was that made the damn fog.

I think I went with high being good last time, so we'll just keep it that way.

Evil GM

Sunny:
roll a d8 for your missed throw on the thunderstone. Sunny you do see two arrows launch threw the air towards the floating docks.

Lucrezia you don't see where your arrows hit.

Andrea roll your dispel magic. d20+CL
Fire Resist 10 Human Cleric 6,HP 40/40,Init+5F6R4W9,Per10AC18/11/17

Andrea struggles as she chants the words to the spell, feeling the resistance against her magic.

Dispel: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
HP 30/ 30; Perc +3; Init +4; AC 20(21)Defensive:23

(^_^):
Well...it's not really a 'miss' possibly so much ass a "Not annoying any potential targets' kind of thing.

1d8 ⇒ 8
Evil GM

Sunny:
The reason for the miss roll is you are throwing something into an area that you can not see. The dock is only 10 feet wide, there water which it could go into, and a ship that it could hit. Then there is the 10 foot radius spread for the deafening sound, there are also three ally spell casters that could possibly be effected with an errant throw. An attack roll of an 8 misses.

Everyone hears a loud splashing sound in the water towards the main dock area. K32/33 area.

Andrea the fog cloud is still present.

The cackling laughter continues from the floating docks. W to AE Hexs for what you can tell.
HP 30/ 30; Perc +3; Init +4; AC 20(21)Defensive:23

(^_^):
Bugger...well..just have to stay above and 'behind' the second fog cloud till the enemy makes it go away, then.

Acrobatics:'Take Ten' = 18.

That should allow Sunny to make long jumps of almost 20' and High jumps of almost 10'. So, she keeps om the move and listening for the enemy on the street below.

Evil GM

Sunny:
You can see the clinking of your comrades gear below, nothing sounds unusual or struggling. The loud splashing sound in K32/33 was your thunderstone. You also here laughter, cackling from the lower floating docks, there are shadowy figures there but it could be the light playing tricks on your eyes.
HP 30/ 30; Perc +3; Init +4; AC 20(21)Defensive:23

(^_^):
Well..since it doesn't seem to be friendly dock workers nor allies?

Att Roll:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 Throw another Thunder stone at said weird laughter and cackling and see what happens! (^_^)

Yay...the dice roller loves me. (¬_¬)

Through intelligence or spellcraft can I attempt to figure out if the source of the cackling is real or an illusion?
Fire Resist 10 Human Cleric 6,HP 40/40,Init+5F6R4W9,Per10AC18/11/17

I couldn't dispel the fog, the magic was too strong. John, it is centered on your tower shield so as long as you keep it we will be trapped in the fog. We need to get out of the area since we are sitting ducks.
Evil GM

No initiative yet.

Faelyn:
When you vanish then fly out of the fog cloud, you can see Sunny running around the top of the warehouse room. She is currently looking south towards the floating docks. You can see crates and barrels on the largest floating dock. You see a row boats in Z19-22. There is rower and two people in that boat. It appears as if there are two shadowy figures on the floating dock to the south. The large vessel that was putting out to see is farther away now. That is what you observe initially.

make a spellcraft and Will save both to determine what you may know about the cackling voice.

Evil GM

Everyone there was sudden loud booming sound coming from just south of you. From the W35 area.

MAP

Here is the current map with the fog template in place. The only thing I forgot to do was move Sunny.

Sunny and Faelyn Only:
Sunny is located in the corner above Duncan on the map, R35.

Faelyn:
you are positive its a voice but its coming from the middle of the first floating dock area. Perhaps inside the outedge of the fog cloud. One other thing you see this round is this is a massive fog cloud, you believe its two clouds actually engulfing the entire eastern docks. The crew on the ship next to east dock is armed and nervous.
Evil GM

The cackling turns into a voice, "Death to the Grulios family and their guards." The voice turns into a velvety sounding female.

Everyone but Faelyn can make a Will save.

Faelyn and Sunny can each make a perception check.

I know there are quite a few spells(buffs) up can everyone who cast put put up an itemization and the length of times. Its been several rounds, so I want to make sure we are on the same page.

Faelyn only:
The ship that is on the northerner dock, J/I16-23 is teaming with armed men. There and it looks like two squads of 7 each are coming down two separate gang planks. There is also a squad of archers preparing a volley towards the eat docks. You still have not spotted any obvious spell casters.

Squads-troups: 5 foot/grunts, 1 sergeant and 1 lieutenant.

RD1: Begins

As a reminder to the new folks, I try have quick combats and they can get a bit complicated with waves of attacks. It is perfectly permitted and encouraged to take your action rather than wait if you are online. When it gets to a players turn, I skip them in hopes that they will show up soon, if they don't they go at the end of the round or they take a double melee action the following round (if I don't DMPC. I normally, don't DMPC unless its critical or necessary to move it along). If the enemy is dead when its your turn and you've already pre-attacked earlier in the round, I make it fit as best as possible by going after another enemy.

Remember only Faelyn sees the troups, possibly Sunny when she rolls her perception. The rest are in a fog cloud. I haloed the three separate squads in different colors for ease.
