Leik is fine in 12V
gottit.
I can't move stuff on the map...
Aethorduil will be in U10
I can't move stuff on the map...
I think I can give people privileges to do so; kinda scared what it would mean though......i.e. could somebody with "the link" to my doc just go and create random havoc there.....
Edwin wisely takes a step away from the stair-closet door, and levels his own bow at it as well.
He then Nods at N'Kai that he is ready.
"Dobitoc?" Edwin echoes Larissa.
As N'kai springs the door something massive and metal and vaguely manlike, (it's not Harry Potter) comes barreling out of the space under the stairs. There's bits of flesh to his integument, but they seem more adornment than functional. He,....or it,....has two scythelike arms and no discernable head. He was pent up in there like a suitcase too full of clothes, and comes exploding out, pushing Edwin, Rholf, and N'kai back.
Initiative.
Beat a 15.
Initiative:
"Intriguing,..."
Init
You guys' turn; you all win with the first roll of init.
Rholf, unsure as to whether or not this thing is coming forward with malicious intent, doesn't attack immediately , opting instead to attempt parleying with the thing, operating on the assumption that it may well be sentient like Dobitoc.
"Stay your blades, guardian! We have come in peace to see your master!"
Delays his attack like Rholf does .
Leik also waits, for sometimes the words of others can win the fight before his blades and whip are needed.
Edwin swallows, and takes a step backwards. (5' step to V10) so he's not examining the creature by staring up it's mechanical nostrils, so to speak.
"Please?" He adds, holding his bow at the ready but not firing. Yet.
"We come in peace, and not to rob you. We are friends of Dobitoc. If you could point the way to where he or the Master of the house is, we will leave you be,..."
The detective is happy to give diplomacy a chance. And just as happy to play 'Pin the arrow in the golem' if it does not work.
Although, he doesn't need to be a golem-crafter to realize he might need a bigger arrow,...
N'Kai holds his attack, unsure of the hostility of the construct...
Larissa....
Least martial of the lot, if the others are delaying, Larissa will, as well. She withholds her doubts about this course of action, but they are clear on her face.
"Yes, we seek to find the master of the house, if you can let him know we are here."
It attacks Edwin twice. Hits once.....15 hp damage.
Group's turn.
Adamandite arrow 1.
Adamandite arrow 2.
The constructs sudden, fierce attack catches the stalwart detective by surprise. He blinks, unsure of what, exactly, just happened.
Then the appearance of his old friend, agonizing pain, fills in the blanks for him.
"OW!" Edwin cries eloquently as he lets his arrow fly.
"Remember what I said about not destroying the gentleman's property unnecessarily?"
"Forget about it. TRASH IT!"
Aethor almost hits once; misses the other time.
Edwin hits. (is his arrow adamantine?) if not, it doesn't do squat.
Leik will back up 5' into the corner and flame whip the guardian.
separating this damage as it may not apply.
Adamantine attrition.
Leik hits, but doesn't do much to the lawnmower on pcp.
"some folk caws it a slang blade I caws it a kaiser blade.....hrmmm...."
N'Kai spellcombats the construct-thingie
"So long for diplomacy..."
Nkai hits it in just the right place, and scores some decent damage
Larissa steps carefully to the side and adopts a defensive stance, quite sure she has nothing to offer in this battle.
"Figures."
Rholf, seemingly intent on seeing if he can hit the broad side of a barn, takes a swing at the thing...
+1 Warhammer Attack:
Damage:
Rholf unfortunately misses the thing.
It attacks Nkai this round.
The magus is hit twice, for 23 hp in damage.
Group's attack!!!!!
Leik attacks again, the only way he knows how!
He hits again, but the thing does not seem that concerned by his fiery whip.
Aethorduil snaps off another 2 arrows, adamandite, tipped.
#1
#2
Recoverable? Well thats something...
He hits once. It's expensive but it's doing something.
"Ouch!!!" N'Kai's mind races trying to remember typical construct weak points and immunities, since this opponent is a hard nut to crack for the party's abilities...
Larissa steps away and casts a healing spell on Edwin.

[dice=Kn(arcana)] 1d20+9
they have "hardness" so you have to overcome that amount of hp's to do anything to them.
Adamantine works....
