And I'll TAKE that healing surge thenkyewveddymuch! ;P

Current status, Manny is taking 1/2 dmg from any attacks this round, has spent 4 of 9 healing surges, and is currently at 40 of 50HP.

Randomise Grafire's attack. 1- B1; 2- M1.
1d2 ⇒ 1
So B1 is hit instead. Also, you axe is +2, so you roll 2d8 on a crit. I'll roll the extra d8.
1d8 ⇒ 2
B1 takes a total of 28 damage and is now Bloodied. The foulspawn are immune to fear effects to it ignores your axe's power.

Shae shifts. Corrosive Mist vs M3, B1, M1.
1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 281d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 291d20 + 13 ⇒ (7) + 13 = 202d8 + 8 ⇒ (3, 4) + 8 = 15
creates zone of acid that lasts til eomnt. Any creature starting or entering zone takes 4 acid damage.

Manny dodges as Grafire brings down the pain in a berserk fury. Shae also evades the melee and conjures forth a horrid green mist that burns your foes.

Otto - are you out there?

How are everyone's hps?
(Me: HP: 71/78, Surges 11/12)
I'm planning on healing Otto when I get a chance next turn, but how's everyone else?

Akahale's fine at the moment, since he's staying clear as long as he can.

Davi will be taking a break, so I'll be running Otto.

Updated my ax profile. Crap I forgot to post my shift to block the halway. Is it to late to implement?

HP-69/69
Surge-7/8

Grafire - that's fine. Current HP totals: Otto (43), Shae (36). Neither is bloodied. Otto attacks B2 with Energizing Strike. Uses Majestic Word on self.
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 211d10 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
On a hit, Shae gains 5 temp hp. Miss. Majestics Word heals:
1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Otto now on 69 hp. M3 moves. OA from Otto. 1 - M3; 2 - B2.
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 161d10 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 131d2 ⇒ 1
Miss. M3 carries on and attack Shae.
1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 321d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
5 damage to Shae. M1 shifts and attacks Hadarai with CA.
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 261d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 72d6 ⇒ (6, 3) = 9
M2 attacks Hadarai with CA.
1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 191d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 42d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10
16 damage to Hadarai

The melee becomes more chaotic as Otto shouts, "You freaks! I'll show you mind games!"

Akahale scuttles back down the passageway and curses the nearest Mangler (FM2). Raising his rod, he intones the strange words that heralds a blast of arcane energy and unleashes shadowy hands that wrap themselves around the neck of his foe.

Curse FM1
Move to three squares north behind Manny and gain concealment.
Shadow Strangler (Ref) v FM1. On hit target takes -2 penalty to attck rolls to end Akahale's next turn. In addition, whenever the target makes an attack roll, it takes 2 damage to the end of Akahale's next turn.
1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25
2d8 + 8 ⇒ (2, 7) + 8 = 17 - power damage
1d8 ⇒ 5 - curse damage
22 damage, FM1 takes -2 penalty to attacks and 2 damage whenever it rolls an attack to the end of Akahale's next turn. And it's cursed.

It looks like Otto has healed up fine... I'll move to keep Shae protected and heal her if she gets bloodied (she's close)

A halo blossoms above Hadarais head and creates an aura of radiance that makes him hard to ignore.
"Stay back to the wall, Shae. I've got this rabble! Hold strong Otto, we'll cut our way to you in a second."
Hadarai then turns are tries to cleave through the Mangler blocking the door (FM2)

(move) Shift one square closer to Shae (due east)
(Stand)Majestic Halo vs Mangler2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22 vs AC.
Hit: 3d8 + 8 ⇒ (3, 6, 7) + 8 = 24 Fire and Radiant damage
Miss: 1/2 damage (12)
Either way, Hadarai now has an Aura 1 till the end of combat == all enemies starting their turn adjacent to me are Sanctioned (marked)

FM1 is still marked from last round.
All three Manglers will be marked at the beginning of thier next turns for being in my aura.
My Mark (sanction or challenge): -2 to attack and takes 8hp damage if he doesn't include me in an attack.

BTW, My home Inet is going stoopid. Keeps losing service. Supposed to have a tech out monday to fix it. So If I disappear for a bit, it's not personal! ;P

I can make a 'basic ranged' att with OUT drawing an AO, yes? if so then MM on the #2 flanking Gra.

"Back up lizard lips! It's getting crowded up here!" Manny shouts to Akahale as he fires off a shot from his staff.

If attacked, will use staff of defense feature to try and prevent being hit, if hit, cloak still gives me 1/2 dmg until end of this turn.

I'm going to decline an OA as it will be painful to M2! Ranged attacks in melee draw OAs. Grafire's up.

The old man fires a bolt of magic that strikes one of the four-armed monsters. It hisses in annoyance.

"Lizard lips?"

Akahale mouths the words cautiously.

Grafire - the problem for Manny and Anahale is that if they move south they won't be able to see any enemies. I'm nasty like that. :D

Ok I will stand my ground then. :D

Wait, you mean, your making the bad guys use TACTICS against us?!?! The nerve! What's next? Gnomes as monsters? ;P

"I think you missed the important part of that statement. The 'back up!' part! It's getting crowded up here!" Manny retorts, pressing up against Akahale to get as far from the enemy as he can.

Shae shifts. 10 force damage to M3. Otto shifts. Attacks M1 with Demoralizing Strike:
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 191d10 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Miss. M1 attacks Otto (takes 8 damage from Hadarai):

I hope FM2 took the damage for all those attacks on Akahale's buddy.
DSA=3

Right. If he can see Berserker 1, it gets a curse on the snout.
He'll take a swift blast at Mangler 2
Eldritch Blast (Ref)
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25 - inc concealment
1d10 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16 - power damage
1d8 ⇒ 4 - curse damage
20 damage total to FM2
Move - retreat three squares and gain concealment.

Akahale looks at the foulspawn with strong disapproval, rearranges his goggles and blasts the abomination reckless enough to harm Hadarai.

I'll post later tonight... I will be using lay on hands on myself, and will be attacking the manglers... so, Fabes, you might be able to skip me for the moment.

Akahale - both of them are round corners. You cannot see them. If in doubt with line of sight, draw lines from 3 corners of your square. If any of those lines intersect with an obstacle you don't have line of sight.

OK. Apply the curse and the attack to Berserk 2.

I'll call it -5 to hit him.

That's 22 v Ref then (I'd already taken off 2 for him being concealed). If it hits, he takes 20 damage from the power and the curse.

Yep, that hits him, lizard lips.

"..." Whispering a slight prayer to Corellon, Hadarai tries to overpower Mangler1 with his holy presence. And then takes a brief moment to heal himself.

(standard) Invigorating Smite vs Mangler2: 1d20 + 14 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 14 + 2 = 20 vs WILL, if hit: 2d8 + 8 ⇒ (8, 3) + 8 = 19 and all bloodied allies (which I think is just me) regain 7hp.
(minor) Lay on Hands, self. (HS + 5)

Aura1 still holding...
My Mark (sanction or challenge): -2 to attack and takes 8hp damage if he doesn't include me in an attack.

NOT Bloodied anymore. at 41/78
I was debating moving from this position, so the mangler-mooks couldn't flank me anymore, but I'm protecting Shae from this position, and I think that's something Hadarai would sacrafice...

Hadarai - I'm afraid you can't heal yourself. If a power specifies that allies are affected, that does not include you. Otherwise it would state "you and your allies".

B2 shifts and attacks Otto.
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 291d10 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
B1 attacks Grafire
1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 221d10 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

The hulking berserkers continue to whale upon the heroes.

Lizard lips exhales a small burst of cold air as his companions come under attack.

Fabes, just to be sure here's the two powers I used, the first does hit me and allies (it just lists those two effects separately, not sure why), the other effects any creature... I wasn't sure which one you were pointing out:

OK, sorry, I missed the sentence whereby you could heal yourself. carry on!

Excellent! I could use the extra hp :)

Hm, looks like I'm gonna haveta risk an AO to help the big guys here. I'll cast Conduit of Ice (lvl 1 encounter) on bad guy #2 beside Gra. IIRC if hit it creates a 5' field of cold that damages enemies only. Can't look it up at work, I'll re-post tonight.

Manny you will get a +2 for flanking even though I believe M2 gets cover.

1d3 ⇒ 2
You hit and kill M2. Played abit fast and loose with the order of Grafire and Manny for speed and ease. Cursed enemy dropped.

Grafire neatly beheads one of the manglers and it falls to the ground, its body jerking horribly.

"Excellent manuvering Hadarai, thier doom is eminent."

Scuttling up the corridor once more, Akahale's form blurs as he sends another bolt of eldritch unpleasantness towards Berserker 2.

"I disapprove of these creatures," he remarks, quite un-necessarily.

Move three squares and gain concealment.

That bloodies me, not bad... if need be I can heal myself next turn, but that's it for my daily healing. So, I might try to wait it out.
