Shalafi's Rise of the Rune Lords Group II

Game Master nightdeath

Poor stinky stanky Amren!

Dude, it's the leather armor. It's making me swear a lot!

*lawls*

Round One
Elwarien will unsling her bow and ready an arrow in case anything comes running towards the group.

Poke for the GM...that last post might have included the following:

Amren, 3 dogs, then Lokien up!

Amren, it is your action.

Will post action shortly, just wanted to give a heads up that the pogs on the map are goblins, not the goblin dogs.

I am aware of that, Lucien hasn't added the goblin dog pogs but as there are only goblin dogs in this encounter it shouldn't be a problem

Amren skitters backwards when the goblin dogs see him, making his way around the cornermove action and drawing two daggers from his belt standard action. When he's in sight of the other group members, he calmly points and says
Goblin Dogs up there.

His calm demeanor is meant to be a sarcastic joke, by being unreasonably calm in the face of peril. On his next turn he will try to flank with someone.

Round 1 Goblin Dogs
The three goblin dogs will chase down the Halfling and attempt to bite him.
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

The first one bites you and the other two miss.

1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Using her held action the elf lets loose an arrow as the dogs come charging to the Halfling.

1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 3 - 4 = 14
1d6 ⇒ 6

Success is mine.

Next up are Lokien
Goblin Dog 1
Kast
Calin
Garridan
Goblin Dog 3

Hey...I added in the goblin dogs already in the map. i put them in the water. :(

Lokien seeing no space to go stays where he is.
"Move up and let a dwarf swing!" Lokien grumbles out.

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
By the gods! Those things bite hard!
Amren howls as he yanks his leg out of a goblin dogs mouth, and readies to stab it in the face with both daggers on round two

Who said that they were aiming for your leg Amren?

Calin Round 1 Int. 8

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18
1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

Striking at the dog next to him.

Calin smashes the skull of the goblin dog as it dies.

In theory, we are waiting for Goblin Dog 1 after Lokien delayed. I'll post Kast now.

Round 1, Init 14-

Kast takes total defense and moves up close to Garridan.

Standard=Total Defense+Move.

Garrdian, GD3, then top of the round.

Another goblin dog comes running up to bite Calib as the first one dies.
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Garridan Round 1 INT
In order to get a better shot at the goblin dog hit by Elwarien's arrow, Garridan moves up so that he can cast Ray of Frost

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
1d3 ⇒ 2

I just remembered that everyone but the Halfling takes a -4 to hit and AC for the cramped quarters.

Smelling blood the last goblin dog, seeing the Halfling hurt attempts to bite him.
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

End of Round 1

This system is working out better

Round 2
Iniative Order:
Elrawien
Amren
Goblin Dog 5
Goblin Dog 2
Goblin Dog 4
Lokien
Kast
Goblin Dog 1
Calin
Garridan
Goblin Dog 3
Block 1: Elrawien and Amren up
Block 2: GD 5,2 &4
Block 3: Lokien, Kast & GD 1
Block 4: Calin, Garridan, GD 3
Should be about right, correct?

As a synopsis Amren found a pack of goblin dogs in the tunnels. They chased him back as one bit him. The pack mostly missed as the party came to the defense of the Halfling. The elf hit one with an arrow while her husband smashed one's head in. Garridan, seeing that these were goblin dogs was able to use his magic to try to freeze one.

Seeing that one of the dogs has approached her husband again and it tried to bite him Elrawien will cast daze on the dog.
Grshi rthin wono

Goblin Dog Will save 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

Intent on its prey the goblin dog is not affected.

Amren is up.

I'm probably going to regret this...
Amren takes both his daggers, driving one in each side of the goblin dog's head.
Let's see how you like it when I bite back, you overgrown rat!
Attack 1: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Damage 1: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Attack 2: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
Damage 2: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Sigh...

One of the goblin dogs will press his attack on Amren while the other will attack Kast.

Amren 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
damage 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Kast 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
damage 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Block 3 is up.

block 3? almost my turn yay low initiatives

Block 3 and 4: Lokien, Kast Calin, Garridan, GD 3 since you killed the one goblin dog.

I'm probably going to regret this...

Round 2, Init 14-

Kast takes a swing at the dog in front of him.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 to hit; -4 more if we are counting our penalties...no one seems to be
1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 damage.

Kast smiles as he thinks that was a good swing.

Since I reminded everyone the Halfling doesn't have the penalty and Elwarien cast a spell.

Your hit connects on the goblin dog but it is not out of the fight yet. It snarls back at you.

Round 2 initiative 8

Even in the tight confines this was what he had trained for, this was in a way his purpose in life. That and trying to mold Elrawein into the perfect maid while making her completely happy.
He spun adding force to his flail's strike attacking the ugly goblin dog between he and Amren.
flailsmash: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 6 - 4 = 12
damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

He growled in frustration the hampered warrens making the swing harder than it should have been.

If his blow hits and it fells the goblin dog Calin would take a 5 foot step forward to stand over the fallen rat dog and make a bit of room for the dwarf to get up here on the next round, or Kast of course.

Round 2
Iniative Order:
Elrawien
Amren
Goblin Dog 5
Goblin Dog 2
Goblin Dog 4
Lokien
Kast
Goblin Dog 1
Calin
Garridan
Goblin Dog 3
Block 1: Elrawien and Amren up
Block 2: GD 5,2 &4
Block 3: Lokien, Kast & GD 1
Block 4: Calin, Garridan, GD 3
Should be about right, correct?

Round 2 Init 15
Lokien is unable to do much other than adopt a defensive stance, holding his hammer shaft before him.

Grumbling at the narrow confines that's all he can do at the moment.
Taking up Total Defense

The last dog is going to attack Amren.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Please make another Fort Save DC 12

Garridan Round 2 INT
In order to get a better shot at the goblin dog hit by Elwarien's arrow, Garridan moves up so that he can cast Ray of Frost.

1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 4 = 11
1d3 ⇒ 3

They ray is a little off due to the cramped quarters throwing off Garridan's aim.

END ROUND 2

This round was not as successful for our intrepid party members. The Halfling was felled by the dogs and is not bleeding out.

ROUND 3
Block 1: Elrawien and Amren up
Block 2: GD 5,2
Block 3: Lokien, Kast & GD 1
Block 4: Calin, Garridan, GD 3

Round Three

Amren continues to lay there and bleed.
Fortitude Save to stabilize.: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

HP:-4
Mood:Dying.

You need to make another save since the goblin dog bit you.

Oh no, you will not get to hurt that Halfling anymore dog she says as she pulls out a scroll and two missles fly out as the scroll burns away Ast rowno rsar

1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Being hit from the magical missiles the dog tries to run towards the elf as it gets stopped by Calin being in the way. Taking out its furry on him it attempts to bite him.
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

DC 13 Fort Save

The second dog will attempt to bite Kast.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

DC 13 Fort Save

Block 3

Lokien you do know that you can move through friendly squares?

Round 3, Init 14-

Kast takes a swing at the dog in front of him.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 to hit; -4 more if we are counting our penalties
1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 damage.

Kast practices good form with his swing, trying to keep his weight balanced.

Kast misses but still needs to make the Fort save and take the damage. -4 to AC as well.

Lokien is up.

Fortitude Save from Dog Bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

Round 3 Init 15
Lokien moves up now with a grim expression. Taking a quick look at his companions, he swings a heavy hammer at one of the beast.

Attack with Long Hammer, 1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 3 - 4 = 12d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 5) + 4 = 15
The Narrow confines making it far more difficult to swing his favored weapon is beginning to irritate him as it catches on to some brambles.

Calin Moonbreeze
Round 3 initiative 8

Angry that the goblin dog has bitten him, Calin strikes back with all of his might at the dog.

Save 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

To Hit 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 - 4 = 4
1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Calin breaks out into an itching rash. A creature affected by this rash takes a –2 penalty to Dexterity and Charisma for 1 day (multiple allergic reactions do not stack).

Garridan's turn.

Ha Ha! Calin has a rash on him bum

Garridan grunts in frustration as they are bested by a pack of dogs. He begins to murmur arcane words as he hands and fingers move in strange gestures. Suddenly an odd glow filled with a myriad colors swirls quickly around his hands. He cups his hands and a cone of every color imagine sprays forth from his cupped hands towards his enemies!

Color Spray cast into the square directly in front of Garridan. This will affect Amren (but not really...), Calin (good luck and sorry), the dog between Amren and Calin, and the two dogs directly behind that one. Calin and the three dogs must make a Will save DC 15 or be affected by the spell.
