Round 6, Init ByPost

Dyrant is in AB53. Atol, stop touching me.

Dyrant will celebrate at Finneas delivers divine retribution and justice through his sword.

Full round action: Celebratory dance. Delay.

After fondling Dyrant, Atol moves the rest of the way to AB52 in order to touch Finneas.

"Excuse me, coming through."

Round 6 {> AJ53}

Tofffitt hears the word "halfling" and moves into the room in pursuit. "Which way?" Assuming someone points him in the right direction, he moves to AJ53, blade in hand.

Toffitt finds Skaven hanging upside down from the ceiling of a smaller cavern. He is 20' up (reachable by Finneas, but no one else with melee). The halfling gestures again and flames spout forth at Toffitt.

5d4 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 2, 1) = 12 - DC 16 REF for half

Party up for Round 7

New Map

And to speed things along, I need miss chances from any attacks against the halfing. 1-50 miss, 51-100 hit.

Round 7, Init 1

Dyrant will move to AG54 and cast Detect Magic.

Assuming a cone including the spider and the room with the halfling, then nothing. There is more than 3' of dirt between Dyrant and the halfling.

Round 7, Init huh? {> AI53}

Reflex 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

"Aagh!"

Toffitt sheaths his blade, quick draws his bow, fires, and steps back into the hall.

Longbow 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
1d100 ⇒ 79 to bypass concealment

Edit: location

Small edits above to location and added d100 roll for concealment.

"Finneas, we could that one alive. He might know where the wands are. Or he might help us figure out what else awaits us here. Best to keep him alive, if possible."

Dyrant looks at Finneas' sword, still dripping in spider/spiderman ichor.

"Of course, should you see fit to deliver divine retribution to him, I would not complain."

Toffitt's arrow bounces off an invisible barrier around the halfling.

Round 7, Initiative Party, Location AB52->AF52

"Finneas, I think being big won't help us now. That hall looks small that leads to the hobbit."
Atol frowns and wishes he had Dispel Magic memorized...

He moves further into the room and considers his options.
Atol will ready to attack the hobbit if he passes near enough to him to hit.

"Doctor Toffit, how goes it?! Do you have him down yet?"

Round 6?

Finneas shrugs and with a grunt does his best to squeeze through the hallway.

"Come here halfling."

Double move and squeeze as far as I can. Potentially I could have moved up after killing the ettercap, but if I'm in the hallway for round 6 that's ok too.

I'm fine with Finneas moving up in Round 6--it would have been hard to predict the way was going to be clear of the spider and ettercap. And if you were wondering, the reach weapon prevented the spines from hitting you. Now in Round 7 it's another move up to the empty space where you can take a swing at the halfling.

Round 7 so far (by post)
Dyrant = moves to AH,54 and casts detect magic
Toffitt = sheath, quick draw, fire, 5' to IA,53
Atol = moves to AF,52 and readies
Finneas = moves, Still to swing. Don't forget 50/50.
Glimmil/Cog = Still to go

New Map

Round 7 Cont.
Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 12
Greatsword Power Attack Raging Enlarged Bless Heroism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 243d6 + 16 ⇒ (5, 5, 3) + 16 = 29

Dang.

With the spider-thing and the purple-spider-man defeated, Glimmil watches as Finneas rushes off after the halfling.

"Who's the halfling? What's he have to do with what's going on?" Glimmil wonders aloud before trotting back to pick up his lance.

Looks crowded in the room at the end, Glimmil will defer as it seems Finneas may splatter the wee hobbit soon enough.

Round 8

The halfling stares at Finneas as his hands weave back and forth. He stabs his finger at Finneas and hisses, "Maka dekaram!" Four bright white bolts of energy shoot forth and into Finneas.

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21 - Cast Defensively
4d4 ⇒ (4, 1, 4, 1) = 10 - damage

Party up for Round 8 (Init by post still)

Round 8

"Owwww!"

Miss Chance 50+ good: 1d100 ⇒ 40
Greatsword Power Attack Raging Enlarged Bless Heroism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 263d6 + 16 ⇒ (1, 1, 1) + 16 = 19

Round 8, Initiative Party, Location AF52

"Doctor Toffit, I need you to move out of the way, I need to get to Finneas to heal him!"

Atol delays.

Round 8 {>AK51}

Toffitt moves into the room and next to the Halfling. He again shoots.

Comp longbow 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 8 - 4 = 19
1d100 ⇒ 76
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"Finneas, hand me the cloak."

Toffitt's arrow hits the halfing this time.

Move action for Finneas to remove cloak. Move action for Toffitt to accept it and put it on.

Toffitt's arrow hits the halfing this time.

Move action for Finneas to remove cloak. Move action for Toffitt to accept it and put it on.

I will do this if still allowed, otherwise next turn. I had thought about doing it earlier but wasn't sure what the Doctor's plan was.

Round 8, Initiative Party, Location AF52->AI53

Atol rushes to Finneas' side drawing the wand of cure light wounds as he goes. On arriving, he uses it to cast Cure Light Wounds for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5.

"Thank you Doctor. Good hunting! ...there you go Finneas. A little something at least!"

Round 8, Init YourMom

Dyrant will continue to scan with Detect Magic, looking to a different quadrant of the room.

Dyrant will also pull out a scroll.

Glimmil still to go. Might just be on dealy. I'll give him a couple hours.

"You don't even know do you? It's good to know. Yes. It's good to know."

Dyrant will continue to scan with Detect Magic, looking to a different quadrant of the room.

Dyrant scans and scans but finds nothing.

Dyrant answers.

"Don't know what?"

I'm going with Glimmil on delay.

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (18) + 15 = 33 - Cast Defensively

The halfing's eyes dart from Toffitt to Finneas to Atol, but his hands remain still. He then shouts at them, "Dia ida'a!"

5d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 2, 4, 5) = 16 - Damage and deafness for 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5 rounds
FORT Save for half damage and no deafness

New Map

Party up for Round 9

Forgot to note. Toffitt, Finneas, and Atol are hit by the shout.

DC 19

Fort 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Spellcraft 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

BuzZzZZZ

Fort Save 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 vs DC 19

"OUCH THAT HURT. CAN ANYONE HEAR ME?"

Nice mappage, GM Chris. 3D!

Round 9, Init 1

Dyrant facepalms with his scroll as Atol's yells pierce his ears.

"Yes, you blubbering oaf. Not all of us are deaf."

*sigh*

"Atol, would you mind moving so I can get in there?"

Dyrant scans another quadrant.

Round 9

Fort Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Finneas winces as the halfing shouts in his face but swings again with the greatsword, knowing his strength will soon run out.

Miss Chance 50+ good: 1d100 ⇒ 43
Greatsword Power Attack Raging Enlarged Bless Heroism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 143d6 + 16 ⇒ (1, 3, 2) + 16 = 22

Razzle frazzle sassafrassin!

Missing again, Finneas will drop his cloak if he hasn't already.

Darn RSS reader lied about new posts all day!

Glimmil waits patiently outside the room while light flashes within several times. Squinting, he can only make out Finneas swinging his massive sword at something on the ceiling.

"Finneas! You can draw him out here to the rest of us! He surely can't hole up in there for eternity!"

Glimmil backs up Cog to AG,49 and readies to charge at something stepping into AG,53 should the others fall back and try to lure the halfling wizard out of his den.

Round 9, Initiative Party, Location AI53->AG52

Atol considers what to do for a moment. Not hearing Dyrant, he none-the-less follows his direction.

First he touches Finneas with another healing burst from the wand to Cure Light Wounds for 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2.

Then deciding that distance is safer, he moves back down the hall and around the corner to AG52.

Round 9

Toffitt takes and dons the cloak. If possible, he will activate the cloak and shimmy up five feet, dropping his bow and quick drawing his blade. He slashes out.

Dueling blade 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
1d100 ⇒ 15
1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"Blast you!"

Round 9 Recap

Dyrant - Does his impression(?) of a senile old man
Finneas - Hands off cloak, misses
Glimmil - readies
Atol - Wands Finneas, moves
Toffitt - takes 12 standard actions which I interpret as take and put on cloak (2 move actions, but I said could be one), activates cloak (standard action), drops bow, quick draws blade, 5' up wall (is still 10' from halfling and out of actions)

Round 10

The halfling eyes Toffit's approach and his hands begin to weave back and forth again. This time when the hands stop, a finger points at Toffitt. "No. Blast you!" A glowing blood red ray shoots forth dropping Toffitt to the ground. The halfing laughs as a second ray shoots forth. It burns through Finneas's armor, his skin, boils his blood, and exits out the backside of his armor. Despite the hole in him, Finneas remains standing and unstaggered thanks to Atol's most recent healing.

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35 - Cast defensively - concentration check
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32 - Cast defensively - ranged attack
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22 - ranged touch ray at Toffit
4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 5, 4) = 15 - damage
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26 = ranged touch ray at Finneas
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23 = Confirm
4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 2, 6) = 10 - damage
4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 4) = 11 - Crit damage

Time to buy a lottery ticket. Glad everyone leveled up.

Party is up.

New Map

Corrected Map

Was Finneas at 21 of (39+10) HP or at 21 of 39 HP plus 10 HP for a total of 31 current? I was reading it as 21 and am too lazy to backtrack.

Actually, I see I was cheating. Finneas still gets an AoO to save himself and Toffitt.

Round 10

Ouch. I'll be down next round when the rage runs out.

Knowing he is almost out of time, Finneas takes what will be his last swing.

Miss Chance 50+ good: 1d100 ⇒ 89
Greatsword Power Attack Raging Enlarged Bless Heroism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 203d6 + 16 ⇒ (4, 3, 1) + 16 = 24

I was at 21 plus 2 for Atol's healing. The +10 after the 39 was to remind me to subtract 10 when I deraged. I'll count the last swing as my AoO and this next as my Roun 10 action if that's alright.
Miss Chance 50+ good: 1d100 ⇒ 26
Greatsword Power Attack Raging Enlarged Bless Heroism: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 153d6 + 16 ⇒ (2, 5, 4) + 16 = 27

Round 10, Initiative Party, Location AG52->AH52

Damnit, from here I can't see anything OR hear anything! Foolish. They might both be dead by the time I come back!

Atol frowns and moves back toward the chamber of death (to AH53) and channels energy for 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 5) = 10 worth of healing. He is careful to exclude the hobbit and the spider in his healing burst... just in case.

"HOW ARE WE DOING? ARE WE WINNING? DO WE HAVE THE WANDS YET?"

In his exuberance, the halfing stretches out a bit too far and Finneas's swing leaves a huge gash in the halfling's head that drips blood over Finneas and Toffitt. The halfing screams, but does not drop.

Atol went before Toffitt last round and this one, so Toffitt will be healed and wake up this round, prone on the ground with empty hands.

Glimmil impatiently wiggles his legs and chews on his lower lip as he keeps his eyes focused on the passage, hoping to see Finneas and Toffitt emerge with the halfling in tow - or with good news that the little wizard has been defeated.

"We're out here and ready if you guys need to fall back!"

Round 10, Init Atolish

Dyrant looks annoyed.

"Atol, why are you yelling? And what's going on in there?"

Dyrant moves to AI53 and pulls out a wand.

Round 10

Actually, don't have to activate the cloak for it's spider climb.

The instant Toffitt is struck by the fiery ray, his flesh begins knitting back together.

Since a free action can happen at any time, and this one happens in response to going to -1 hp, I suppose he would still probably fall but is more or less instantly awake again...

Toffitt immediately stands back up and drinks an elixir he has on hand.

Cure light wounds 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Round 11

The halfing disappears.

1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19 - Cast defensively
1d20 + 9 + 10 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 10 + 20 = 46 - Hide check

Party is up.
Be very specific about any attempts to locate the halfling or which square you will target.
