The latter, as it sounds like a clash of two groups.
Riese; Elgan; Stiggy left to go...
"Do you guys hear something?"
"Do you guys hear something?"
Roaring in pain and fury from his injuries, Elgan-Dire-Bear-Druid follows Gittik's pint-sized example, and gets his rage on! Tearing into the nearest of the strange creatures with a fury born of desperation, and pity for the poor creatures,...
As he roars and swipes at the creatures, his personal thundercloud echoes his anger, spitting a lightning bolt down upon another of the creatures,...
The dire bear Elgan thing hits once with his paw, and that sahuagin still stands.
The other falls to the lightning bolt coupled with Altai's spellworks a second before.
Stiggy.....Riese....FIGHT!
I don't know.
I've been having a b@$#& of a week, so I'm kinda punchy.
I'm also going on a vacation for a few days; gone the 20th for a few days (don't know yet exactly)
and we're about to level here so that always takes a while....
Did like 5 hours overtime Mon; 4 hours Thurs; backed into a parked car Thurs; (not too too much damage but it really sucked sitting around for an extra hour talking to people about it) and worked today, so I'm kinda drowsy anyway.
Mwahahaha!
I got called in at 3:30 am; I'm going to sleep incase they call me in again.
I guess if fakey/stiggy don't show in a couplea hours somebody can go ahead for them; sounds cool.
Ok.
Electric Vengeance on the dude that hit me as an immediate action for 9 damage.
Then Riese steps away and, seeing a beleaguered Elgan getting trounced, he unleashes a Fiery Firebolt at one of his foes for 28 damage dc18 reflex for half.
The sahuagin freak that hit Riese gets a surprise of his own as a vindictive current jolts him for a good three seconds, gluing his fist to where he hit Riese and making him do St. Vitus' dance.
He staggers.....and stands, barely. Blood pours from his orifices though.
And the one fighting Elgan is burned pretty badly, yet also seems to hold on and fight on.
Stiggy!
I guess---Aub and Vatters will get to bed before Kruelaid might show up; somebody want to do Stigg's attack go for it;
then if I don't get called in, I can attack for the baddies and it'll be a new round, so Stiggy would theoretically still be able to attack whenever he showed up.
Stiggy's enlarged I think, so he drops the foe against him (there was just one), and the one against Elgan is within 10 feet.
So Stiggy does a Conan stab-the-sword-backwards-while scowling at the one he just made into bloody, kindling pulp as that one thlaps and fwaps to the ground, and does the cleaved one's spinal cord in half and it falls with a pointy enlarged sword outta it's front.
So there's one on Riese and one on Gittik.
Riese's foe, freaked out by the shock, hits Beldan.
Beldan takes 18 h.p. from one knobby paw.
Gittik's foe, as his skin knits over with coral, smashes the halfling barbarian one time for 15 h.p.
Altai:
The viper tree is now......120 feet away.
On the far shore, a ragtag group of sahuagin appear.
They're not advancing toward your position. They're regrouping, some are wounded; they seem to be setting up to receive battle's charge more than anything else, as the thirty or so sahuagin group up facing the cave's entrance. If they even notice you, it's not like they let you know.
From the cave's entrance they appeared from there's shouting. You can also hear.....horses(?)
So.....
There's one fighting Riese. Really messed up looking.
One fighting Gittik. Pretty much in mint condition.
Altai knows what Altai knows.
There's the tree 120 feet away.
And there's a platoon of sahuagins 200 feet away.....though they're previously indisposed, if you will.
Groups' attack!
Altai:
Stiggy swats the bejeezus out of the foe of Gittik's. He's on the ropes, but still scrapping.
Question:
I can't remember, this gig's been juddering along of late so It's been going a while, but.....
you guys still look like sahuagin, right?
Altai momentarily drops underwater, disappearing from view. Suddenly, big bubbles rise to the surface, releasing white gouts of steam. As the stram wafts towards the cavern ceiling, Altai splashes back to the surface.
Altai:
She's not slinky enough, and screams underwater as two steaming lancets of fiery water slash into her.
She's hurt up pretty bad.
“OW! B~**#f~&~muncher!”
The uncouth and upset young rogue once again turns the lightning thrower on his assailant.
Fire shoots out of all the holes in his head, and he collapses in a twitching, smoking lump.
Gittik; Riese; Elgan; Oso; Pip are up.
Uhhh.........for the sake of brevity, down is down.
I think that normally they would regenerate, but I'd like this combat to climax before the new Pathfinder game comes out.
Oso charges into the fight next to Stig and Gittik, hollaring wild like a native on a raid.
Oso and Pendobar finish the last one on the north beach. Oso's sword hews mightily twice, and the jolt of lightning is too too much for the thing.
Okay.....
Gittik, Elgan, Riese haven't acted;
there's a viper tree 120 feet away, about 30 sahuagin (who are about to be attacked probably) on the beach 200 feet away across the grotto, and Altai's fighting something in the water. All the sahuagin freakers are down though.
Beldan peers across the water. “Gods … what’s going on over there? And is it going to be good or bad for us …?”
Riese; Elgan;
Gittik's chilling for now.
Elgan-Dire-Bear steps back from the pulp that until recently was his opponent. With a bearish nod and grunt of thanks to the others, he slaps his bear paws onto the large wound on his chest, and it begins to heal.
He then turns, and looks like he is counting. His bear's face looks puzzled for a moment, then looks out at the water, where steam from Altai's latest fish-fry is still rising. With a roar he points one large paw at the water, and his personal thundercloud spits another lightning bolt into the water in front of Altai,...
Altai:
Riese!!!
"Gack! Watch where you aim that thing!"
"Gack! Watch where you aim that thing!"
Elgan-Critter immediately turns his head the other way, rubbing one paw on the back of his neck, and humming (growling?) a tuneless tune,...
ROFLMAO!!!
Somebody want to attack for fakey at this point?
Riese looks at the water fight and begins to cast a summoning, he prances and capers, dances and jigs for all he is worth.
Sweet.....
what's Gittik up to?
Stiggy's enlarged I think, so he drops the foe against him (there was just one), and the one against Elgan is within 10 feet.
So Stiggy does a Conan stab-the-sword-backwards-while scowling at the one he just made into bloody, kindling pulp as that one thlaps and fwaps to the ground, and does the cleaved one's spinal cord in half and it falls with a pointy enlarged sword outta it's front.

Yeah; I don't think Gittik can charge per se; you're both in the water, he can get up there and melee on her though.
