Initiative as well as flavourful gophering? Of course.
Init roll (1d20+6=15) - manually amended as forgot Grafire's bonus

8 squares west of Akahale and Manny's rock.

Perception check on ice bodies:
1d20+5=6

Init
Init (1d20+9=25) - inc Grafire bonus.

Enthralled at the prospect of combat, Hadarai concentrates only on the coming fight, ignoring the surrounding terrain.

I'll stand next to Hadarai. Initiative: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 = 14

Oops! Sorry! Was having so much fun I forgot to roll the dice! :(

Init: (Does not include any bonuses)
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Akahale doesn't spot anything untoward in the river. He thought he saw something, but it was a trick of the light.

This is a surprise round, so you can each only take 1 action.

Shaeryyn darts to the boulder in the river.

Move 1 south, 4 southeast.

"Man, they look hot. They really need to cool off. I know, I'll provide the ICE!" The manic mage cackles cheerfully. He gestures with his staff and orb, and with a thunderclap, small icy meteors pummul the persons on the opposite bank,...

Wiz Daily 9, Ice Storm. position 11 squares across (E) and 1 up (N) should put directly in the middle of the opposing force across from Manny. Area Burst 3, cold dmg and area is difficult terrain until end of encounter or for 5 minutes

Hadarai has to go before you but can delay.

Sorry about the delay someone stole my internets. However, I have conquered them and have retrieved my precious internets.

Good work on conquering the internet gremlins, egg-brother.

Hadarai will delay until after Grafire. Are we crossing the river or making them come to us? The latter seems like a better idea to me.

all good. So long as I get to throw that ice storm before they all move out of range! ;P

And GO GET 'EM GRAFIRE! Teach those interwebs gremlins whose boss!

Grafire, Akahale, Otto are up.

The red area is difficult terrain. The trees provide cover and are difficult terrain. The ice is difficult terrain. The boulders are 4 ft tall and provide cover.

Eldritch Blast (Ref) Berserker 5
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26
1d10 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Akahale allows himself a small smug smile as he follows Manny's excellent destructive example.

Grafire grunts, scans the river and attempts to run to the East accross to the other bank behind the group of rocks in front of him.

looking for the best route perception 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 1 = 16
Nature check for the same, not sure which really applies 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 4 - 1 = 13

Double move, draws Axe and prepares in a defense stance. Not sure if that gives a Defence bonus. I would guess I will be hammered in the next turn.

"For Bahamut..." Focused Like a dragon protecting its nest, Grafire takes off after his enemy.

A dash accross the river or as far accross as I can get.

Hadarai moves swiftly to support Grafire and form a solid defensive line with the dragonborn.

Otto also moves to stand with the other melee combatants.

The new companions launch an arcane assault against the surprised enemy. The melee combatants of the party trudge across the ice... carefully.

The red area is difficult terrain. The trees provide cover and are difficult terrain. The ice is difficult terrain. The boulders are 4 ft tall and provide cover.

I should be behind the rock in the river north of the main part of our group, moved there in the suprise round.

Shaerynn steps out from behind the rock and attacks with a fury of mystical energy.

Move: Shift 1 SE. (it puts her 6 SE and 1 S from where she is on the map currently).

With a wave of her wand and an incantation, she calls acid from the sky onto a cluster of foes.

Standard: Corrosive Mist, using Wand of Accuracy. Area Burst 2 within 20, targeted on the square between Berserker 1 and 2, catching both of them and Heretic 2. Attacks: B1: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32, B2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (19) + 14 = 33 and H2: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25. On hit: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (7, 3) + 6 = 16 acid damage. In addition, the area burst 2 is covered in a rain of acid until EOMNT. Any creature that starts in, or enters the zone, takes 6 acid damage.

She points her sword at at another heretic and a magma shaped dog appears and attacks the other heretic.

Minor: Summon Magma Beast. It appears 1 west of H1 and attacks. 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28, on hit: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 fire damage as well as 7 ongoing fire damage and slowed (save ends both)

HP: 56/56
Surges: 6/8
AP: 1/1
Enc Used: Corroisve Mist, Wand of Accuracy
Daily Used: Summon Succubus, Summon Magma Beast
Status:

"Miss Shaeryyn appears to have an extremely destructive bent," remarks Akahale approvingly from behind his lump of rock.

Acidic rain falls, causing panic and pain, as a beast of magma attacks one of the tieflings. The tiefling laughs as the creature causes it no hurt at all.

The tieflings grin as fire forms in their palms and they throw it at the eladrin. One hits and she starts to burn...

Otto sees snakes... snakes all around him, biting and hissing...

H1 attacks Shaerynn with Balefire. Miss. H2 attacks Shaerynn with Balefire (invoking Infernal Wrath) - hits 26 vs Reflex. Shaerynn takes 11 fire damage and 5 ongoing fire damage. H3 attacks Otto with Serpent CUrse. Hits 27 vs Will. Otto takes 6 psychic damage and ongoign 5 psychic damage.

Double move to get to the river bank and try to take cover behind the boulder.

"Eh? Whut's that? Yer STILL too hot?! Well alright, I kin cool ya down some more!" MAnny cackles as he pops his head up once more to send another burst of frozen air flying from staff and orb,...

cast Winter's Wrath, encounter 7, vs Fort, 2d8+10 Cold Dmg, Area burst 2 within 10 squares, "A blizzard erupts in the designated area and continues until the end of your next turn. It's area is lightly obscured, and any creature that starts it turn in the storm takes cold dmg equal to your int modifier. (+5) You can end this effect as a minor action."

At range 10 I think I can JUST get it to catch both of the guys on Akahale's side of the Ice Storm Area. So (if I hit) they take the original dmg, and then when they move, they take +5 more cold dmg! (I like the ice spells!)

1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 221d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 242d8 + 10 ⇒ (7, 2) + 10 = 19

Hadarai continues cautiously over the ice towards the same boulder as Grafire.

double move

Akahale curses Berserker 5 and sends an eldritch blast his way as a follow up.

Eldritch Blast (Ref)
1d20 + 14 ⇒ (9) + 14 = 23
1d10 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10 - power damage
1d8 ⇒ 7 - curse damage

If Manny bloodied Berserker 5 by any happy chance, then Akahale does two extra damage with his attack.

[ooc]

Manny, I targeted the other two, as you couldn't quite get the two you specified. You hit both. Unfortunately, you also shattered some of the ice in the creek. Akahale - B5 is now Bloodied, so congrats extra damage.

The arcane storm continues as Manny unleashes more frosty death and Akahale sends forth another dark bolt to cover the approach of the warriors.

The red area is difficult terrain. The trees provide cover and are difficult terrain. The ice is difficult terrain. The boulders are 4 ft tall and provide cover.

The dark circles are holes in the ice. The green area is currently acid rain. The bluey-purple area is icy rain and lightly obscured.

Calling Otto

There's no rush. Fabes went on his honeymoon and won't be back until 18 September. He posted it on the discussion thread that we hardly ever use though, so a lot of folk may have missed it.

Got it :D. I forgot to save the link.

Otto swings at the spectral snakes surrounding him before turning back to the bandits. "What, you think this is funny? Man gets eaten by snakes, you just laugh? Grafire, Hadarai, come on. Let's teach these idiots some manners." Otto begins stalking across the ice, dragging his halbred behind him before picking it up, breaking into a run and slamming it down into a beserker's head.

Sorry for the wait. Anyway, I think I can move/charge Berserker 1, using Forward-Thinking Cut for it and spending 2PP on it to allow Grafire and Hadarai to each make a charge attack of their own, not against the enemy I charge. I'll let them choose who they attack, assuming I didn't misjudge the distances. 1d20 + 14 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 14 + 1 = 331d10 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Saving Throw: 1d20 ⇒ 14

Nice one.

Hadarai's eyes gleam in anticipation.

Otto, Is that a immediate action or on our next turn?

Otto, Is that a immediate action or on our next turn?

If I remember right, free action for you two. Right now. Get going.

Berserker 1 looks like the lucky recipient. Let's go Grafire :D

Move to the north of Berserker 1.
1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
Umph. Not likely. But you never know, they could be incredibly feeble ...[/ooc]

Berserker 1 looks like the lucky recipient. Let's go Grafire :D

Uh, you can't charge the same enemy I'm charging, which happens to be Berserker 1. The two of you can still charge Heretics 1 or 2, or Berserker 2.

Heretic 1 then. And hopefully Grafire will roll better than Hadarai.

I will go fopr H2. Hopefully that will set us up right for the next incomming attack.

Charge attack H2
Basic Attack - 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26
Damage 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

Re-dot! (All of mine vanished last week)

Wow, you guys have been busy! Currently re-adjusting to UK time (albeit 1 hour difference!) but have not slept much over last 48 hours.

Otto - the frozen creek is difficult terrain, so unless you have a move of 6 you can't make it to B1. Your profile has disappeared.

Oh. Must of miscounted. I guess I'll just get closer and go into full defense and-MY PROFILE DISAPPEARED!? Screw it, I'll fill it back in and figure out how much damage I took in this fight in the morning.

My entire DM profile (with links to everyone in every game I'm running) vanished about 10 days ago. I'm still rebuilding it and it is ... not good. The official word seems to be that editing a profile with another profile open may be triggering this very nasty glitch.

Glitch?!? That's a not a glitch! That's a bomb! Good luck re-building guys! (And thanks for the warning! sheesh!)

B1 vs Grafire 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 131d12 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
B2 vs Grafire 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 141d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Both Berserhers miss.

The berserker warriors engage the heroes.
