Red hand of Doom (Inactive)

Gotta ask, though... Where did the new guys come from? How come we didn't see them coming?

Mostly because in the first round most of them were inside the building and one hellhound and two hobs weres far away

Karla moves to the edge of the path to engage the first archer. "Iron Lord, make them bleed!"

She lets the tip of her father's sword trail behind her as she moves quickly, then seems to thro it above her head, catching it with both hands and sends it crashing down on the archer.

Two rolls for the Hex
1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 2 = 211d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 = 102d6 + 13 ⇒ (2, 1) + 13 = 16

Seeing that the newly arrived hobgoblin seems to be some kind of leader, he decides to apply full force to him, in the hopes of taking him down quickly.

Spell Combat/Spellstrike Shocking Grasp.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Reroll on the second attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

Crit confirmation: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Possible confirmation?

Attack 1: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Second attack plus Shocking Grasp: 1d8 + 6 + 5d6 ⇒ (8) + 6 + (4, 6, 4, 6, 5) = 39
Extra crit damage with Shocking Grasp if applicable: 2d8 + 12 + 5d6 ⇒ (6, 2) + 12 + (5, 4, 5, 4, 3) = 41

Whabam. Total damage (if crit confirms and both attacks hit): 94.

You can reroll every attack, not just one.

You can reroll every attack, not just one.

It is just once per round

Oh, my bad. I thought it worked like the luck domain cleric ability.

Dafuq?! I thought I had already acted on this round. oO

Flynn moves a little bit to flank the Hobgobling engaged in combat with one of Spica's elementals, hoping to remove one of the enemies from combat. (if the Hob is already dead, Flynn instead attacks the hound closest to him).

Scimitar: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18 [ooc](inclunding flank)
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Description of your actions

Kira strike the hobgobling with a strong swim of his heavy blade but for her surprise the hob just not die. Really injured but not death.

The same WTF? reaction is painted in Flynn face after pericing the hobgoblin with his scimitar. Not only that hobgoblin did a good job dodging the elemental fist but he also is still alive, almost dead, but still alive.

Kenchi is much more succesful. His strikes totally destroy the body of the dual wielding hobgobling.

The south spicas elemental kill his hobgoblin, the nort fails but he is flaking with flynn.

==================

Enemy turn

The hobgoblins get shoked the death of the dualwielder. Their face reflect doubt and fear. But then a loud voice start comandig actions and their attitude, even from badly hurted transform in pure conviction again.

The voice is near kenchi but there is no sign of its origin.

(does somebody have goblinoid as a known language?)

The Hell hound in the middle of the road charge to attack spica. The hound fails miserably but half second later Spica feels that something is pulling her really strong. She Turns around just to discover that a cocodrile is holding her from her robe using its Jaw. Obsiously the cocodrile was not there a second ago, he just came from nowhere. (Spica is grapple)

Houdn vs spica: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 61d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + 1 + (5) = 9
Cocodrile vs spica (grapple): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (8) + 13 = 21

meanwhile the archers that are fighting against Karla drop their bows and draw lonswords. They 5 ft in order to get flank
( In case someone is wondering how they both have the flank bonus the order is. (A) Ft and ready an action to attack just afther his partner attack. (B) 5 ft to flank and attack, (A) readied action get triggered so they both have the +2 bonus. I think that is withing the raw, isn´t it?
They obviosly have trained to work as a team.
Hob Vs karla 1: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 91d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Hob Vs karla 2: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 201d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
One of them miss but the other find the spot to hurt the warrior. Karla takes 8dmg

After killing the dual wileder kenchi is attacked by one hobgoblin (one wthat was fithing with the elemental) and the hell hound. They both Flank him but kenchis agility is too much for them.
Hob Vs kenchi: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Hell hound Vs kenchi: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 111d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 1 + (3) = 10
The archer that he previously did not see double move inorder to have him in melee range.

Flynn easily dodge a sword attack by the almost dead hobgoblin. And that pretty much that is it for him.
Hob Vs Flynn: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 161d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Can we get the map? Spica speaks Goblin. Also, where did that crocodile come from?

Did you forget my actions?

Karla remains on the edge of the path, engaging the hobgoblin archers. When one drops, she steps to the next. Her greatsword swirls furiously above her head, looking light as a stick in Karla's hands, but crashes with great impact.

First roll only if no longer hexed by Spica: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 = 191d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 2 = 252d6 + 13 ⇒ (2, 2) + 13 = 17

Easy, I am still editing :)

Peopel I am still editing XD, calm down.

Ahah! I always use Preview to avoid that (after a very confusing battle!).

Your turn.
@ karla: note that the hob you attacked the last turn did not die. I assume that this round you killed him witht he attack you aloready posted.

Working on the map.

I repeat my request for a map.

If you just had waited 1 more minute :(

MAP

The green thing is the cocodrile.

"Blast!" Spica curses as the reptilian beast seizes her ankle. "They have a spellcaster! The stars' curse on this beast!"

"I'm going to need some help over here!" Spica shouts, amidst her prayer.

Standard Action: Misfortune on the Crocodile, Will Save DC 17. Move Action: Prayer Hex.

"The caller is in danger!" The two elementals grumble in the tongue of stone. Disregarding their current foes, each sink into the ground, the earth rumbling faintly as they glide through the soil, bursting on either side of (whatever that H is) near Spika.

"Don't touch the caller!"

Both take a double move, provoking an AOO from the hobgoblins they were fighting.

AoO aganist south elemental: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 231d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
AoO aganist North elemental: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 81d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Belated Concentration Check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

DC was 17, right? I'll post my next action in a few hours.

A Crocodile?! WTF?!

I'm assuming a hidden enemy spellcaster summoned it.

What kind of sick bastard summons a freaking crocodile??? lol

Call me a sick bastard because I totally would if I needed a summon to grapple. The crocodile is a really good one. Of course mine would be a shiny celestial crocodile.

yes, I meditated a lot thinking in what to summon. I used the crocodrile for its masive CMB for grapple. Althougt now that I think of it Spica can make an AoO against the crocodrile.

You mediated on it? Dude... You're taking this game to seriously! ^^

I have a bow in hand; I don't threaten any spaces, so I can't take an AoO

You mediated on it? Dude... You're taking this game to seriously! ^^

Well in thsee day I have the tiem and nothing more todo, and you were pretty much destroying the encounter...

Can you provide like a key ON the map next time or summat? All these H's and R's are confuzzing.

Can you provide like a key ON the map next time or summat? All these H's and R's are confuzzing.

This is how I remember: H = Hound. R = Robgoblin (I've seen it spelled like that before)

Come on lemmy, rynjin is your turn

I keep thinking I already acted because I mistake my last turn for the current one.... :P

Scimitar: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
2d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 1) + 8 = 15

(Because of course I get a crit against an opponent with half a hit point) -.-'

Flynn decapitates the Hobgoblin with his scimitar, then turns around and moves southwest to flank the Hobgoblin currently facing Kenchi.

Turning away from the ashes of the lead hobgoblin, Kenchi attacks the next nearest one, with a flourish, branding his name in the creature's body with the second attack.

Casting Defensively (Arcane Mark): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

Attack 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Attack 2: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

Damage 1: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Damage 2: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Kenchi is a big fan of Zorro.

The last turn, I did not tell spica what the orders in goblinoid were, so here it is

The Crocodile start rolling itself twisting and wrenching Spica. The crocodile force is too much and she get tripped by the animal while she feels the jaws of the crocodile tear her leg.. The poor Elf lady have not time to analize her situation cause the Hellhound is trying to eat her face. Spica instintively Put her arm to block the hound and get bitten there with the great savagery.
(10 damage in total, you are still grappled and now you are prone)

Will save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Death roll + damage: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (20) + 18 = 381d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Death roll + damage: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 331d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
hell houn dattack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 271d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 1 + (2) = 5

Karla kill one of her attackers while the other try to strike back but is unable to pass her defenses. Unfortunaely a southern hobgoblin cames to help his companion and flank you again.
Hobgoblin vs Karla: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 71d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Hobgoblin vs Karla: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 191d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Kenchi Show again his great talent with the sword tearing appart his enemy, the poor hob did not even exactly knew when he died. Kenchi then proceed to easily dodge the hell houdn and hobgobling attacks.
For some reason the hellhound attack was rolled twice, originally it did not hit
But the happiness of the magus disappear suddenly because he is now unable to move any single muscle of his body. You are paralized.
You can now see another hobgoblin laughing, one that was not there before. A hold peson spell he cast over you.
I am thinking in coup de grace you next roun :P
Kenchi will save DC 14: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Hobgoblin vs Kenchi: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 111d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Hellhoundvs Kenchi: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 231d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 1 + (1) = 8

Flynn can see Karla dueling singlehandely against two hobgoblins, spica desesperately figthing for his life and how kenchi suddenly stop moving, and pretty much that is it for him this trun.

It is basically Your turn but you can wait for the map.

Ah, I forget a hobgobling. It moves and attack flynn

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 181d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

The hobgoblin miss.

==========
MAP

The (B) is the now visible hobgoblin spellcaster.

What about my Hobgoblin-slaying Critical Hit? :)

Um. Help.

"Blasted beast! Someone help me here!"

Spica snarls as her leg is twisted out of place, slamming her against the ground.

Move action: Prayer Hex. Standard Action: Fortune Hex to Flynn.

Hexes: Flynn, Kenchi and Karla: Fortune 2 rnds
Crocodile: Misfortune 2 rnds

I don'T get why you placed the elementals that way on the map. Last turn, they both took a double move to flank the hound. I'm going to make their actions with that assumption Either way they can 5-foot step to do the same.

"Don't touch the mistress! Die!", both elementals rumble, each swinging at the hound with the strenght of their earthen body. The easten one splatters mud out of a deep but as it does.

Slam Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 2 = 26damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Slam Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 2 = 26damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Wow, they really are a pair.

So... Should I help Kenchi or Spica? One is surrounded... The other is being grappled by a motherf@+&ing crocodile!

EDIT: By all Gods, Spica! Your elementals are making us look bad!

That's Augment Summoning for you... Oh BALLS. I just realised that has a prerequisite and I didn't remember when I picked it up. DM, with your approval, I'll swap it for Extra Hex after this fight ends. (I've undone its effects.

Also, Flynn, if you can help me, I can help Kenchi. Right now, I'm pretty much stuck with nothing but my hexes.

By Calistria's Ass! I completely forgot, but I have 2 freaking castings of Liberating Command prepared!!! oO

(As an immediate action) Flynn casts Liberating Command on Spica. (Spica can immediately make an Escape Artist check with a +10 bonus)

Sorry, Spica... I should have done this earlier! My bad... :(

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24

Whew. Permission to change my actions with that taken in consideration, DM?

Karla laughs at the hobgoblins: "You want to teach ME the art of war?!"

5-foot step away from flank (north-east)
Switch Judgment for damage

She steps back to break the flank and swirls her greatsword at he newly arrived warrior.

With Fortune Hex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 141d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 262d6 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (5, 5) + 13 + 2 = 25

Confirm: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 232d6 + 13 + 2 ⇒ (3, 4) + 13 + 2 = 22

"THIS is WAAAAR!!!"

Whew. Permission to change my actions with that taken in consideration, DM?

Yes.

Kenchi does his best impression of Plank.

If it doesn't bother you, Nicos, I'd like to roll my own saves... It kinda annoys me to have other people rolling my dice.

Hold perso n allow a reroll every turn. Remember that you have the fortune hex too.

It depends. For example might need to know if you get blinded in order to see if the following attack is a sneak attack or not
