Commander?

- Brujo, if you'd like to post your actions, I'll slot the good Commander in later when he surfaces.

Move to F8

Atk; Dmg (1d20+9=25, 1d10+5=12)

"Fight on!"


Male Half Elf Paladin 6th

After the bats action...

Leo shifts to E-7 and divine challenges D#3 cutting loose with a Holy Strike on the skeleton.

Rolled a 12+9 for 21 to hit if it hits does 1d8+6 rolled a 1+6 for 7pts of radiant damage

"Kelemvor sends his regards," Leo mutters to the skeleton.

If thats still difficult terrain then he'll use the sarcophagus to lean against as he attacks


Leo, from what I can see, Commander Caine was intending to attack D3 and if he did so, will have killed it. Hang on and I'll do the bat moves and you can decide then what you'd like to do with the benefit of an updated map.

Could you all be very specific about what you are attacking. Most of the time I agree it's obvious, but it helps me to update faster and lets other players know what is still available to slaughter. The skellies are minions. They only have 1hp and an AC18. If you roll higher than that, they're hit and they drop. The bats are just normal monsters, you do need to roll damage for them.


Commander Caine effortlessly shatters D3, while Brujo hauls Bat 1 forcibly towards him. The enraged creature lashes out at him with its string like tail, catching the swordmage across his face before struggling to take off again. Tail lash attack on Brujo (1d20 8=25, 1d6 4=8)

I'm ruling that Bat 1's move action is simply to try and take off. So it's now airborne again.

Bat 2 lashes out at Fairwind, but misses and flies to the far end of the room.

Bat 3 tries the same trick with Leo and also misses. It glides sullenly away, unable to escape from the circling warriors below.

Bats have a flyby attack which allows them to fly 8 squares and make an attack as part of their action. This does not provoke an OA.

Okay may as well so this...

After the bats action...
Leo shifts to D-7 and divine challenges B#3 cutting loose with a Holy Strike on the bat.
Rolled a 12+9 for 21 to hit if it hits does 1d8+6 rolled a 1+6 for 7pts of radiant damage

Leo swiftly steps forward and strikes out with his sword the glittering silvery light once again catching the light as he strikes at the bat that had moments before struck at him...


The bat flap in outrage as Leo slices deftly into its wing.

Fairwind is up
Skellies followed by map update


F Half-elf Ranger 4 (multiclass - Rogue)

Move to I6. Twin Strike vs D10 and D9. (1d20+7=18, 1d20+7=19) And 'poof', they are gone.

Fairwind rolls her eyes as her comrades get in a flap and vaults her way across the rubble-laden tomb, deftly slicing off the skull of one skeleton, and chopping the legs from off the other one.


Fairwind dances her way down the room, reducing skeletons to rubble as she goes. Still firing, the remaining skeletons continue their backwards move.

D5 fires an arrow at Cronin and misses.
D6 fires an arrow at Fairwind and hits. D6 attack on Fairwind (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=24)
D8 fires an arrow at Fairwind and hits. D8 attack on Fairwind (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=18)
D11 fires an arrow at Cronin and hits. D11 attack on Cronin (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=23)
D12 fires an arrow at Cronin and misses.

Fairwind takes a further 8hp from the skellies and Cronin takes 4.

MAP - post skellie moves.

Cronin is up
Perigia


M Goliath Cleric 14 / Storm Speaker / Druid

"Fairwind, let Selune aid you!" Cronin shouts, then unleashes Her radiance on the bat Leo has injured. He then dodges biers, trying to get closer to the room the skeletons fled into without exposing himself too badly.

Healing Word on Fairwind -- surge + Heal (1d6 4=5)
Lance of Faith on B3 -- Lance (1d20 6=21, 1d8 6=13) (vs Ref) -- Leo gets +2 on his next attack against it
Move to K10


The bat's tail lashes helplessly as Cronin invokes Selune's aid. The winged predator is in a bad way.

Bat 3 is bloodied.

Perigia is up


Female Genasi Firesoul Wizard 7

Perigia goes to blast B1 with Ray of Frost but makes icicles grow from the celing instead. 1d20+5=6 vs.Ref

Bats

I'm posting this now so you can contemplate your next actions, but there is no way we'll finish this round before I vanish for a couple of days. I'm back late Thursday (UK time) and will pick up again then. Apologies for the delay in your scheduled mayhem.


Move to F7

Atk; Dmg (1d20+9=19, 1d10+5=7)

"Caine Super Slash!" The greatsword of Caine strikes down.


Male Half Elf Paladin 6th

To save time I'll post now

Leo nods his thanks to Cronin as he calls upon his holy strike once more.

Rolled a 12+9+2 for a total of 23 to hit doing 1d8+6 rolled a 4+6 for 10pts of radiant damage on Bat#3

His sword once again glitters with silvery light as he once again tries to skewer the bat before shifting to E-6.


Letting his blade become frost over Brujo strkes at the bat.

Booming blade 1d20+8=26; Damage 1d8+5=7 cold damage; If it moves away it takes [ur=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1852657/ ]1d6+3=9 thunder damage[/url]

Late tonight (UK)


I am back. Updateage will shortly occur.

How lovely, IC is down. Preparing to home roll for bats...


Bat 1 lashes ineffectually at Brujo as it flaps away, taking even more damage for its evasive action. Bat 1 is bloodied.

Bat 2 almost insolently drags its tail across Caine's neck as the warlord hammers at it. 1d20+8=25, 1d6+4=10hp damage to Commander Caine.

Bat 3 is desperately wounded and flails helplessly at Leo as it lurches to the other end of the room.

Map - after bat moves

Note that Cronin, Brujo and Perigia can only see D6 and possibly D11 (Brujo and Cronin can, not sure about Perigia). Leo, Fairwind and Caine can also see D12.

Yes, that's how avoiding archers tends to work . . . Welcome back!

Perigia can see D11, but not D6.

Absolutely right. And infuriatingly I was just outside the editing window to amend the post.

Everyone can see D11. Everyone except Perigia can see D6. Leo, Caine and Fairwind can also see D12.


Fairwind?


F Half-elf Ranger 4 (multiclass - Rogue)

Alright already, I'll have ma actions for y'all later on. :D

I know! Just concerned that your call had slipped up a couple of posts is all.


Apologies Fairwind. Had to act as I need to update skellies and will be out early tomorrow. 24 hour rule and all.

Fairwind snorts derisively, shifts towards Bat 3 and deftly finishes the bloodied creature with a swirl of flashy long and short sword work.

Twinstrike on Bat 3 (1d20 7=19, 1d8=3, 1d6=3)

D6 fires at Fairwind and the arrow nicks her. D6 attack on Fairwind (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=17). 4hp to Fairwind.

D11 fires at Cronin and misses.

D12 also fires at Fairwind and misses.

The skeletons edge further back around the corner.

Fairwind, Leo and Caine can see D12. None of the rest of you can see any of the skeletons.


M Goliath Cleric 14 / Storm Speaker / Druid

Frustrated with his inability to discern the skeletons' actions, Cronin blasts the bat in his way with a ray of silvery light.

Lance of Faith on B2 (1d20 6=25, 1d8 6=13)

+2 to Perigia's next attack on B2. If the bat survives, Cronin moves to J8. If it dies, he moves to M9. If Caine is bloodied, he'll get a healing word (+1d6+4); otherwise I'll save it.


Cronin's divine light offers a path to his companions as he heads to the far end of the room. A bat remaining in his way is seared, but survives.

Bat 2 is now bloodied.

Perigia is up

Her move ends the round, but I won't be able to update until later today. If Caine and Brujo want to post based on the most recent map, go ahead. Just take note that Cronin is at J8 and Perigia is wherever her next move takes her to.


Need the healing word here.

1d20+9=25, 1d10+5=11

Caine charges to the nearest enemy.


Shooting another line of electricity at the bat, Brujo attempts to pull it close again.

[Move to G9; Lightning lure on b1, drag to H10 1d20+6=20 vs. Fortitude; Damage [url=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1855121/]1d6+6=8 lightning damage[/ooc]

Dang -- I'd thought Bat 2 was the bloodied one and I might be able to kill it. But you were quite clear, I just got confused.Healing Word on Caine (1d6 4=9)


Female Genasi Firesoul Wizard 7

Perigia tries to blast B1 with Ray of Frost again. 1d20+5=7, missed again.

Edit: With Cronin's bonus it is a 9 to hit, which I'm sure still misses.

Note you had a bonus to attack B2. Still have it until you sue it.


Commander, I took the liberty of delaying you until after Brujo so that you'd have something to hit. There's nothing in range if you go before him.

Cronin's healing power envigorates the Commander between them, he and Brujo make short work of Bat 1. The creature drops on top of a bier like a badly made leather coat.

Bat 2 flies towards Fairwind, attacted by the blood dripping from the ranger from numerous arrow wounds, but misses before flying back to the door and hovering in front of it.

Leo moves first to F-7 then to G-6, then H-6 and finally on to I-6 adjacent to Fairwind (Need my eyes checked!)

"Need healing?" Leo asks her.
If so will use one of Leo's healing surges to heal her as her name on the map is in red which I assume means she's bloodied


Red on the map does indeed mean she's bloodied. If you click on the map, it enlarges quite nicely. Or should do. Photobucket is not playing ball with me today.

"Thanks, preacher-man," she says with a smirk, "Guess you like laying hands on girls?"

Move to 010. Twin Strike (rolling at home) - D11 and D12. D11 he is gone as I got 23. D12 he is not gone.

She dashes once more to slice and dice the boney foes.

Leo blushes at Fairwind's comment.

I assume thats a yes so Leo spends a healing surge and she regains hp as if she had spent one of hers


Is Fairwind still bloodied after Leo's ministrations?


F Half-elf Ranger 4 (multiclass - Rogue)

Nope.


Fairwind rounds the corner and finds herself in an ossuary. Scrambling to maintain her balance on piles of aged bones, she reduces another skeleton to rubble, but her attack is brought to an abrupt halt by an eerie presence behind her.

Rising out of the detritus of the room, an insubstantial figure claws lovingly at her face, marking her to deadly effect. Icy fear catches at Fairwind, leaving her vulnerable to attack.

Spectral touch on Fairwind (1d20 9=19, 1d6 2=8). Attack is v Reflex. 8 necrotic damage and note the specter has a Spectral Chill aura 1, reducing all defences by -2.

Aside from the aura, the specter is insubtantial and takes half damage from weapons.

The remaining skeletons open fire on the isolated half-elf.

D5 misses.
D6 misses
D8 hits D8 attacks Fairwind (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=26)
D12 hits D12 attacks Fairwind (4hp on hit) (1d20 6=26)

Total 16hp damage to Fairwind.

"What in the Nine- Arrrghh!" Fairwind cries, "Gorram!" she curses, "Preacher, Cronin get in here!"


Male Half Elf Paladin 6th

Leo is at I-6

"Oh more undead!" Leo breathes in eagerness as the Paladin of Kelemvor wonders if its his lucky day and then hopes it isn't Fairwinds unluckiest day...


M Goliath Cleric 14 / Storm Speaker / Druid

Cronin rushes in and takes in the scene in the ossuary. Stepping up to the specter, he invokes his goddess in a loud voice -- "Selune, give us your grace against these foul creatures!"

Move to O9, turn undead, healing word on Fairwind (surge+7).
Turn vs S and D12 (1d20 6=24, 1d20 6=10, 1d10 6=11)
Specter takes 11 radiant damage, is pushed to R13, and immobilized through my next turn.
Heal Fairwind (1d6 4=7)
Oh, for an action point!


F Half-elf Ranger 4 (multiclass - Rogue)

"Thanks," Fairwind says breathlessly, "Looks like tall, dark and spooky ain't too happy 'bout us bein' here."


Apologies Leo. Updated your position on the map.

Selune's divine grace scythes into the specter and it flinches back from the cleric. The radiant power seems to be particularly agonising to it. (vulnerable 5 to radiant damage). Snaggletooth cheers squeakily as Cronin blasts the insubstantial horror. Fairwind breathes a sigh of relief as some of her worst wounds close over.

MAP - updated and amended.

Perigia moves to E9 ad tries to blast B2 with Magic Missile. 1d20+5=24 vs. Ref. 2d4+3=6 for damage.

"Yes," Pergia shouts involuntarally.


The bat rustles and hisses and Perigia finds her form at last and zaps it triumphantly with arcane power.

[ooc] If I'm not online when my go next comes up...Leo moves to J-7 then K-6 then L-7 then M-8 and finally N-9 then employ Sacred Circle granting Leo and any ally within close range of 3 a +1 bonus to their AC for the rest of the encounter and divine challenge the Spectre.[ooc]

Leo rushes in managing to duck and turn past the sarcophagi and enter the far end room before announcing...
"Kelemvor aid us in this dark time against these unfortunates!" as Leo uses his sword to scratch a narrow circle around himself before flourishing his holy symbol causing a slim silver light to emit from the circle and it erupts surrounding a small area around the Paladin before disapearing as Leo settles into a more familar combat crouch with his sword raised.
"I challenge you bodiless one!" Leo yells at the spectre," Come forward and accept Kelemvor's blessing of a quick passage to the beyond you have fled from!"
