With Silence's arrow, the ambush is sprung. The troll gets shot in the shoulder but swiftly begins to heal as the rest of your group begins to rush to their positions.
Round One Begin
The gate guards sound the alarm and rush to re-enable the wall of force . Your captives flee as ordered. The troll, still healing from its arrow wound, roars in anger and lashes out with claws and teeth. It scores hits on Sigrun and Neverhome .
Hobbes hops off the Slaygon and takes a shot at one of the guards on the wall. "Time to get inside, guys and goils!"
The pain is minute to the solace that the captives fleeing instead of forfeiting their lives brings to Neverhome, a determined sternness in his face as he swings at the brute Bedure him.
Percy rushes up and sends a sheet of flame pouring over the troll.
With a whisper, Zses delivers a shadowy incantation against the troll
"वेला विधि, ऋघायते एतत् विनिपात!"
Zses just manages to get out of the trajectory of Percy's spell. "Woah! Watch out with those, Percy! You could have killed someone! I mean, someone that isn't a giant troll." he adds with a nervous laugh.
If one of my warriors gets below half hit points I will cast cure light wounds.
If one of my peeps is about to be terribly injured, I will interrupt and use my Freindly Switch Feat. Which is a 5' step and I will go Full Defense.
If every one is still good, I will aid another on defense.
Choose randomly, or we can see who really wants my attention:)
Leaping forward, Sigrun attacks in icy silence, her clenched jaw and glittering eyes clear indicators of the deadly rage coursing through her, her axe biting into the troll with violent force.
The felinerai dropped the bow in the back of the Slaygon scrambling forward to grab the riegns.
Hiah, Hiah!"
he called out giving them a good flick and moving the rumbling device forward. If his friends hadnt been in the way he would have tried to just trample the troll under hoof and wheel, but he certainly didnt want to squish his friends
"Mule! To me!"
he called next as he pulled back on the reins to stop the device.
The Troll roars in rage and pain as Percy chars her thick hide. She unleashes an all-out assault on the red-headed Gnome, but Zes' curse keeps the heavy blows from connecting Percy's pyromaniac sister, meanwhile, sets a Guard's signal horn on fire. He's unable to drop it in time and rapidly burns to death. His companion fires a crossbow at her but misses badly.
Hobbes will move and fire at the other guard.
"Hey, pick on someone half your size!" he shouts at the troll as he swings again, trying to draw attention away from Percy.
As his friend and mount approached the felinerai leapt landing perfectly in the saddle
"Go! Mule, the beast!" he cried guiding his friend torwards teh troll as he gripped his naginata properly, swinging it hard at the troll of he closed within range.
Seeing the troll attempt to kill Percy only serves to further stoke Sigrun's rage. Stepping inside the enemy's guard, the indomitable barbarian brings her axe biting deep into the troll's side.
"What's that? To be the servants of evil witches that probably have little patience for failure, you sure are bad at hitting stuff!" Zses shouts to the troll, before throwing a glance at the remaining guard and laughing shortly.
Percy giggles at Zses's joke and steps back, then fires a chaos bolt at the troll.
Allie's alone! There is no one over there! I hope she can handle the one guard.
Allie torches the second guard as everyone else pounds the Troll. It's still on its feet when Percy unleashes a wave of pure sound, dropping the Troll to the ground. As you watch, it's injuries begin to heal.
New Round
Girls, fire good! Really soon would be better!
Stay down!
Unless I have time for a Coup de grace full round action.
Yes Mommy! Percy runs up and puts her hand over the beasts head and summons another roiling sheet of fire.
With the troll falling and Percy coming up to helpfully barbeque it, he spun about on Mule looking for another foe.
That went... better than i thought it might, is everyone okay?"
He asked more than a little shocked that it had went that smoothly. Maybe there was something to the chaos and nonplanning, though it could have been luck. Time would tell.
Standing over the fallen burning troll, Sigrun lifts he axe, bringing it down on the troll's neck.
"Yeah, that was really embarrassing for them!" Zses responds to Silence with a short laugh*. "But we better stay alert: they probably have other soldiers stationed in the upper floors."
When the battle ends, Zses helps the others check the rooms () before moving deeper into the tower.
Neverhome will help search the other rooms as well as the body of the troll for any keys or anything else of importance, very much at unease at how this is currently going.
Allie panted and responded to Silence. "Im going to need to rest soon. I feel my energy depleting." Little Allie fanned her with a small, neverhome-esk hand.
"I'm fine, Whiskers."
The felinerai dismounted from his friend patting the valiant warhorse.
Listen friend Mule yes yes. Guard the wagon, guard the other ones. If you see anyone not us you smash their face in with a hoof yes yes?
He said actually motioning towards the wagon and the other horses. He knew the horse didnt actually understand him, well at least he didnt think Mule did, But he knew with his motions and pointing the horse understood. It would guard the area, it had been trained to do so.
Mule will watch the wagon and the courtyard yes yes... let's go say hello to the inhabitants of this tower shall we?"
He said his whiskers twitching as his tail lashed... his ears were quite obviously down. He tossed Friend Lyosha his naginata and withdrew his katanna saying a simple silent prayer over it.
When you are not busy laughing at them perhaps you can keep the bads from the little ones and friend vashti yes yes? the uh... pointy end goes into the bad guy."
He informed the young man.
"I would have never guessed." Be mutters flatly as he looks the weapon over.
As the Caturai's words sink in Neverhome is able to put two and two together and hands the polearm to its intended recipient, Zses.
Ringing the courtyard are empty dog kennels. Inside the southeast one, you find a sack with 500gp.
