Euan's Second Darkness (Inactive)

Game Master Euan

Fort save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15

Allarnon barely fights off the effects of the poison as he closes in on Tiryin and bites at the over confident drow in rage.

Bite: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 15 + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 = 12

Allarnon is caught of guard as the massive spider reveals itself so close to him.

Round 3, Init 12

1d20 + 8 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 8 + 3 = 27 Fort

Kaylayne directs the Other Kaylayne to grapple green dot while and she draws her staff as she moves up.

1d20 + 11 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 11 + 5 = 23 CMB (grapple)
1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 2 = 27 SR

Dimitrio was pissed, "Let's stop this shit already. Did you not hear? We just want to leave!"

He moved forward and brought his blade to bear on the drow.

He yelled at Layne, "Get Lief down here; I have smelling salts to wake him."

____________
continue bardic performance, attack red

rapier, panache arcane strike, inspire courage: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21
damage: 1d6 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 19

A stirring in his mind, colors start to bleed back into the aura of his Light, and Lief manages to shake the effect of the poison coursing through his veins from the drow's bolt. Inspiration ftw- Immediate Action

"Get Lief down here..."

"No, no. I'm alright. He got lucky. The full bolus of poison didn't take. A close one."

Round 4, Init 22

Lief doesn't let Blue distract him from assailing Purple from above.

+1 Hand Crossbow: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 2 + 5 = 22 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 5 = 7 damage

Iterative: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 + 5 = 33 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 5 = 8 damage

Confirm Critical?: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 2 + 5 = 27 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 5 = 10 damage

Studied Strike: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 5, 3) = 14

Kudos to Kay for poking the slapdash post, and keeping Lief in the game

Ederin, early DMPC, focuses on the giant beast, trying to down it before he crumbles under it’s magics. He also activates his boots of speed for an extra attack, and bonus to future reflex saves. I’ll let Ederin make his own reflex save.

Attack: 1d20 + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 36
damage: 2d6 + 3 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (5, 1) + 3 + 6 + 1 + 2 = 18

Attack: 1d20 + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 18

Attack: 1d20 + 13 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 13 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 29

Hasted Attack: 1d20 + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 17
damage: 2d6 + 3 + 6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (2, 3) + 3 + 6 + 1 + 2 = 17

crit threat Attack: 1d20 + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 18 - 3 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 34
damage: 4d6 + 6 + 12 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (2, 5, 2, 3) + 6 + 12 + 2 + 4 = 36

87hp damage - he's a machine!

Ederin pounds the new creature, and hard. Allarnon moves up on Tiryin, but fails to connect. Dimitrio moves up but fails to connect with his foe, though he continues to help the others. Kaylayne moves up and grapples greenie, pinning him to himself. Lief, denying his poisoning, manages a critical hit and takes out purple instead of floating uselessly.

Tiryin grins as he dodges and weaves, striking thrice at Allarnon. ”Sorry folks,” he says in stilted common, ”This is the end of the road for you!”

double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (14) + 14 = 28 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
double shortsword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Green tries to break free.
CMB: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

Blue also steps up on Ederin.
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Red steps up and attacks Dimitrio.
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Rapier: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

The giant spider, ignoring Ederin’s onslaught, fights back, firing another ray from its eyes, this time one of the frigid northlands.
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19 Cold Damage: 12d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 4, 2, 6, 4, 6, 3, 6, 1, 2, 6) = 48 reflex DC 19 for half

It also moves to provide flank for the Vonnarc son, AND attacks Allarnon!
Bite: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (20) + 19 = 39 damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12 and free grapple 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (16) + 27 = 43

Allarnon - 16- (-34hp, grappled)
Dimitrio - 14
Kaylayne - 12 (-6hp)
-Round 5-
Lief - 22 (-7hp)

Next up - Everyone.

Dimitrio was livid, "End of the road you say? Come here and cross blades with me. I'll show you some fancy footwork, boy. Let's see you try your disgusting habits on me."

He continued to taunt Tiryin, "Call off your lackeys and let you and me settle this."

"What's the matter? You're only a tough guy against those that are defenseless. C'mon boy. Try your shit on me!"

____________
taunting Tiryin to see if he reacts and moves to engage Dimitrio

Allarnon grunts as the massive spider grabs ahold of him. Quickly he squirms about, his long claws dragging across whatever they are able to on the spider. All he knows is he needs to get free.

Target Spider then Tiryin

Bite: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 15 + 2 - 2 = 34
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 2 = 16

Claw 1: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 15 + 2 - 2 = 32
Damage: 1d6 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 2 = 15

Claw 2: 1d20 + 15 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 15 + 2 - 2 = 34
Damage: 1d6 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 = 12

Round 4, Init 12

Kaylayne moves and asks the Other Kaylayne to grapple Tiryin.

1d20 + 11 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 11 + 5 = 35 CMB (grapple)
1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 2 = 21 SR

I'll assume Tiryin 'chickens out' and continues to attack Allarnon so Dimitrio will keep attacking red

The swashbuckler smirked when Tiryin didn't take up the challenge, "Suit yourself coward but I'm coming after you after I finished with your peons."

Dimitrio applied his sword moves to the drow in front of him.

-------------

Round 5, Init 22

Lief takes aim, this time at Blue, hoping to allow Ederin to fire freely. Swift Action- Ranged Study

Fly Check v DC 15 to Hover: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 + 2 = 16

+1 Hand Crossbow, Cat's Grace, Ranged Study, Inviso: 1d20 + 11 + 4 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 4 + 5 + 2 = 31 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 5 = 8 damage

Iterative: 1d20 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 4 + 5 + 2 = 23 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 5 = 7 damage

Studied Strike: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 2, 4) = 17

Ederin Reflex Fire: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 vs DC 19 or 51
Ederin Reflex Cold: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27 vs DC 19 or 48

Ederin takes 75hp of damage in the first two rounds, and drops bleeding (-5hp). As the poor man is away, he auto-stabilizes... but you're without your archer.

Trying laughs, and says in broken common, "Now what?"

He does not seem to understand Dimitrio's eloquent speech, and instead sticks to his plan.

Ederin collapses like a bad flan, struck down by the giant dangerous spider. Allarnon focuses on the beast and does well, striking all three times and yet it does not fall. Dimitrio tries to taunt the Vonnarc, but language gets in his way - so instead he presses a lesser drow but fails to drop him. Kaylayne’s spell fizzles on Tiryin - apparently his SR is just not that low… Lief hits twice, right on once, and hurts blue quite a bit spreading out the damage evenly among the opponents.

Tiryin laughs grandly as he presses his attacks on Allarnon, unhindered by Kaylayne.
double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (9) + 14 = 23 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
double shortsword: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Green steps up on Allarnon.
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Rapier: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Blue considers the archer, and leaves him to bleed as he steps up on Dimitrio.
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Rapier: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Red presses his attacks on Dimitiro
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Rapier: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

The giant spider has lost his target and looks to Tiryin who nods to Lief. He looks at Lief, and fires another ray from his eyes! Lighting arcs across the chamber and onto Lief.
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35 Electricity Damage: 12d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 6, 4, 4, 2, 6, 4, 4, 3, 6, 2) = 51 reflex DC 19 for half Invisibility: 1d100 ⇒ 37 (high is good for me)

...and the bolt goes wide.

The son of Vonnarc yells something unintelligible at the spider but it's clear he's angry. Apparently that was not the right target.

However, it continues to chew on Allarnon, releasing him briefly from the grapple.
Bite: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25 damage: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

I shouldn't have trusted that magic and put a skill rank into linguistics-undercommon. :(

Dimitrio continues to taunt the drow leader, now resorting to hand signals as well as words, "C'mon down boy. Come taste some steel from the sunny lands. I wanna see try one of those tricks on me."

He continues to attack the drow in front of him hoping to soon make it to their leader.

Round 5, Init 12

Kaylayne moves closer to the fallen Ederin and unleashes some magic with her staff...firing at the spider (then Tiryin should it fall).

1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23 UMD vs. DC 20

1d20 + 12 + 2 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 2 + 1 - 4 = 13 touch to hit; (bard,PBS,Cover)

4d6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6, 4, 6, 6) + 2 + 1 = 25 fire damage;

Allarnon fights for his life, his sharp jagged teeth and claws rend the spider.

Spider then Tiryin

Bite: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 15 + 2 = 35

Kaylayne, I'll need a SR check. The great spider falls to the great bear, sadly. My lovely!

Lucky too. I forgot his claw attacks last round.

this bear isn't sad. That spider was scary :)

1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31 SR vs. Something

Round 6, Init 22

Lief watches Red and Blue collapse, so takes aim at Green, hoping to isolate Tiryin, Son of Vonnarc. Swift Action- Ranged Study

+1 Hand Crossbow, Cat's Grace, Studied, Inviso: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 2 + 5 + 2 = 28 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 5 = 8 damage

Iterative: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 11 + 2 + 5 + 2 = 31 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 5 = 10 damage

Studied Strike: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 6, 4) = 14

Edit:

Fly Check to Hover: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 + 2 = 21

Ederin continues to doze quietly as the party rages around him. Allarnon tears into the monstrous spider, finally bringing it down to its knees. Dimitrio with two quick thwacks does indeed bring blue and red to their final rest. Kaylayne throws fire down upon Tiryin handily beating the SR. Sadly, she does not connect with his impressive dodging abilities. Lief attacks green, doing a little damage.

Green looks over his shoulder at Dimitrio, but does as Tiryin bids and steps into flank with Allarnon.
Rapier: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Rapier: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Tiryin looks a little less optimistic as he presses his attacks with flank.
double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 14 + 2 = 31 damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 3 + (3, 4) = 13
double shortsword: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 14 + 2 = 34 damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (6, 2) = 16
double shortsword: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 2 = 25 damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (2, 2) = 11

He considers taking his third swing as a coupe de grace of sorts, but the DM forbids it. The Vonnarc swears in under common, and holds his swing.

"Come and get me." he shouts, clearly deranged by the decision.

The giant spider shoots one more ray, at Kaylayne, this time, save or be petrified permanently, DC 19 fort.

Oh, wait, he can’t do that, he’s dead. Unfortunate…

-Round 6-
Vonnark - 20 (20% miss chance to hit)

Kaylayne - 12 (-6hp)
-Round 6-
Lief - 22 (-7hp)

Next up - Everyone.

Dimitrio continues to taunt the drow leader, "All your boys are falling, one by one."

He pointed to the Vonnarc Son and ran his finger across his throat, "You are dead."

He then went to engage the last drow guard standing, and yelled to his companions, "Somebody wake up or heal Shorty and the bear-man. I'll keep the drow boys occupied."

Kaylayne moves and tries to heal every goodguy at once with magic.

1d8 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 healing to Alla, Ed, Dimi, Kaylayne, & Lief

"C'mon, Eddie, get back in the fight."

Round 8, Init 22

Lief debates his next actions, as Dimitrio fights so far below his average, it begins to look cruel. Oh well, he'll eventually get to Tiryin. He's likely trying to calm his nerves, before risking death at the hands of another Vonnarc.

Lief takes in the male drow form, one last time, circling Tiryin, but remaining airborne. Swift Action- Ranged Study

+1 Hand Crossbow, Cat's Grace, Inviso?, Ranged Study: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 11 + 2 + 2 + 5 = 29 for 1d4 + 1 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 5 = 10 damage

Studied Strike?: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 4, 5) = 16

Ederin's eyes roll forward as he groans. The sound of battle and the adrenaline still in his system helps him take in the situation quickly. He scans the battle field eager to return the favor to the son of a b&%#@ that laid him out but sees it dead, twitching on the floor.

With the spider gone he snarls and turns his attention on Tiryin, but his muscles are still sore and his wounds haven't fully closed. Keeping himself on the ground he fumbles in his sash and pulls out a large fruit that he eats as quickly as he can.

Large Fruit: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (5, 5) + 3 = 13

When done he rises up slowly, bow in hand. Hoping that with Allarnon in the way, Tiryin doesn't see that he's back in the fight. While he moves he watches the drow, looking for a weakness or an opening.
Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32

Ranger's Focus on Tiryin

Addendum:

Miss Chance, High Good: 1d100 ⇒ 82

Subconsciously believed AC 27 wouldn't touch the First Son... might still not...

Allarnon should be at 8 hp. As the grapple dropped his AC jumped back to 26 so last attack missed, though barely.
With what little strength he has left Allarnon claws his way back to Tiryin in an attempt to take the drow down with him. "This is for Tarkir!

Swift: Ranger Focus

Further, on your initiative in Round 7, you were passed out. Kaylayne heals you on her init, which means, I think, you lost the round. You weren't conscious - so you couldn't delay. Let me know if I'm mistaken.

Lief, I show you hitting AC 29. Where's the 27 coming from? Just double checking for my own sanity. You'll miss either way unfortunately.

Allarnon, I didn't hit you with the last attack just the first two. I just added the damage from the first two only, which by my calculation put you to -102 and down. If I miscounted, I apologize, but don't take the 11 off. Are you still up and attacking?

"The giant spider has lost his target and looks to Tiryin who nods to Lief. He looks at Lief..."

Seems both spider and drow could see Lief, in spite of his invisibility, but couldn't presume to know. +2 to hit if they couldn't actually see him. I was being pessimistic with the AC 27...

Ahhh. Gotcha. The spider could not 'see' you, but could pinpoint your location. I think I did the 50% miss chance, which is why you were missed. Tiryin does seem to see you however. Good catch. :)

Yup. When I rage I get 20 temp HP which they strike through first putting my HP at 115 total instead of 95.

Cool Allarnon, thanks. Also, Blur - so 20% miss chance.

Allarnon bite: 1d100 ⇒ 45 high is good for Allarnon

...and Allarnon draws first blood!

Ederin snores, loudly, as his subconscious plans for the round ahead. Allarnon rips into Tiryin, drawing the first blood on the noble drow. Dimitrio drops green like a sack of potatotes, threatening Tiryin as he does so. Kaylayne heals the party a touch, but enough to liven a few unlucky souls. Lief brings the light around, but cannot quite make the shot.

Tiryin, having lost his flank, and possibly the battle, angrily looks to get out. He moves back (provoking from Allarnon) and draws a potion. (Those are stairs he's fleeing up, so please note - difficult terrain.)

-Round 8-
Vonnark - 20 (-16hp, 20% miss chance to hit)
Ederin - 16 (heavily wounded)
Allarnon - 16- (-86hp)
Dimitrio - 14
Kaylayne - 12
-Round 9-
Lief - 22

Next up - Everyone.

Dimitrio's poem turned into a roaring battle cry.

He moved towards the Vonnarc Son, "Where are you going, buddy? The party is not over yet. You got some blood on your hands that I'd like to avenge, you filthy bastard."

double move to get next to Vonnarc boy
CONTINUE INSPIRE COURAGE, Layne told me to make sure you are all aware of this. :)

Round 9, Init 22

Lief watches Tiryin begin to flee, and catches a glimpse of their recent sudden need to depart, surrounded on all sides by great danger. It's no different, here and now, save for who's the danger. He nods in approval with the First Son's wish to end combat. The young man tries to dot his departure with a single shot of his crossbow, before heading to the Gate.

AoO Bite: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 15 + 2 = 32
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 = 12
Miss chance; high=good: 1d100 ⇒ 44

Allarnon bites at the bastard son as he tries to flee up the stairs. Circling around he leaps under Kaylayne and snaps his jaws at the insolent little prick once again.

Bite: 1d20 + 15 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 15 + 2 = 19
Damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 2 = 10
Miss chance; high=good: 1d100 ⇒ 94

Round 9, Init 12

Kaylayne sees Ederin stirring and returns her attention to Tiryin. She flies closer and asks the Other Kaylayne to coat Tiryin in sparkle dust should he turn invisible.

Sheds light like candle and -3 to attacks for 5 rounds.

Ederin heals himself - just in case. Allarnon hits with the AoO, but misses with his regular swing. Dimitrio moves into position to keep the pressure on. Lief also does a number of Tiryin, hitting well, and hitting hard. Kaylayne readies an attack to brighten up his day when he quaffs his potion, which he does.

Tiryin does indeed quaff his potion, provoking (sadly) from Allarnon and Dimitrio. If he survives (remember the 20% miss chance), he turns invisible briefly, before being outlined by Kaylayne. He then moves off a bit.

-Round 9-
Vonnark - 20 (-54hp, 20% miss chance to hit)
Ederin - 16 (less heavily wounded)
Allarnon - 16- (-86hp)
Dimitrio - 14
Kaylayne - 12
-Round 10-
Lief - 22

Next up - Everyone.

"Uh, uh, uh, sonny boy. No more tricks from you."

Dimitrio keeps up his magical poem and slashes at the Vonnarc son.

Just moved the bad guy on the map, forgot to do it earlier, sorry!

Allarnon misses tearing the empty bottle from the drow's hand. You should have just left with your life when you had the chance!

Seeing the son run Allarnon gives chase.

Round 10, Init 12

Kaylayne's face contorts into anger. Anger at the drow. Anger at the dark. Anger that this one male thinks to stop them rather than let him go.

She turns her rage inward, wildly shaping it into an outlet to her anger. She transforms into a magnificent battle kangaroo!

She flyingly hops into flank for Dimi with her powerful legs ready to kick some drow in the back.

Ederin stands up and watches the group pursue the fleeing drow, he's still moving slowly and hasn't gotten fully up to speed yet. He searches the ground for his bow, grabs it, and hopes he can catch up soon before anyone else gets the glory.

Round 10, Init 22

Lief starts to study the Elf Gate, looking to open it for the others by the time they've finished their trophy hunting. He thinks back to his time with Travaran, and what he can remember, even now. For whatever may leverage the device's activation, the young man keeps working at it.

UMD: 1d20 + 17 + 1d8 ⇒ (17) + 17 + (2) = 36

Ederin stands and readies himself. Allarnon presses Tiryin, but does not connect as he pursues the evil drow. Dimitrio misses with his AoO and connects with his swing, but does not critical. Kaylayne transforms into a battle kangaroo! Lief approaches the gate and tries to activate it. Hard to know really what happened, but after a flash of light, Lief is gone and the party is plunged back into darkness! The gate looks quiet and cold in the dim light from the phosphorescent lichen on the water below.

Tiryin flees down the tunnel (60’ - withdraw action so no AoO from Allarnon. AoO’s from Dimitrio and the battle kangaroo however). I’m not going to move him on the map, just know the tunnel is twisty and he is out of immediate sight, though the glow from Kaylayne’s spell can be seen around the bend.

-Round 11-
Vonnark - 20 (-78hp, 20% miss chance to hit)
Ederin - 16 (less heavily wounded)
Allarnon - 16- (-86hp)
Dimitrio - 14
Kaylayne - 12
-Round 12-
Lief - 22 (special)

Next up - Everyone.

Round 11, Init 12

The Magnificent BattleRoo kicks at the fleeing form of the drow, using his mighty haunches to take down the drow.

1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 9 + 2 = 24 to hit;
1d6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8 damage;
1d100 ⇒ 79 21+ is a hit;

Kaylayne double moves after the Tiryin, flying and hopping quickly after him. Move at 40', so going 10' beyond him (and trying to cut him off), assuming 10' to go around or above him.

"Wait, wait. Don't leave yet. We can be bros..."

Dimitrio slashes at the fleeing Vonnarc son.

AoO attack

miss if <=20: 1d100 ⇒ 57

I'm not sure if I can follow him. I want to. Is there light?

Tiryin attacks the flying kangaroo as she flies over his head and into flank.

double shortsword: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (19) + 19 = 38 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

It's a small tunnel, so whoever posts next gets to catch him, and maybe swing, with flank.
