The Last Breaths of Ashenport

Game Master FabesMinis

Geez, you're destroying these guys. I haven't rolled anything above 4 for nay of my attack rolls so far!

Akahale rolled a 3 :)

IT rolled a 2

FM4 is now Bloodied.

The fishman gapes silently as Grafire hits home.

FM2 moves. OA from Seram hits for 20 damage. FM2 attacks Seram with Slippery Strike 31 vs AC Seram takes 8 damage +2 poison damage and FM2 shifts as part of the power to BB20. FM3 and 4 both miss. FM1 runs to Z12. OA from Akahale - misses.

The fishmen surge into battle, one rushing up to Manny and Akahale from down the street, grotequely flopping and gasping.

Mandrake's turn.

As the fishman hurtles towards him, Akahale is deeply grateful for his impacted sinuses. On the downside, his eyes are now watering madly and he knows his aim will be off.

Manny's out of town so, I'll go for him. Thunderwave vs FM1. 20 vs Fort (inc stench) hits for 11 thunder damage and push it to X13.

The old man starts half-humming, half-singing to himself "There once was an ugly fishman, with scales so.. something something. And all the other fishmen said something something get out of town!" and with that he shoves the fish-man away with a loud crack of thunder.

Seram's turn.

On Rowan's next turn he'll shift 1 square to the NW (diagonally) and cut loose with a Searing Light on Fishman#2: 1d20+9: 16+9 for a total of 25 to hit its Reflex doing 12pts of radiant damage to that fishman if it hits and leaves it blinded until the end of Rowan's next turn... hopefully!

Stepping away from the growing stench allowing him to focus on the task at hand Rowan calls upon his faith and strikes out at the fishman who has stepped clear of both its allies and Rowan's comrades.

Seram swings at the fishman

Recuperating Strike 1d20+13=26; Damage 2d4+13=19 and I gain 4 temp hp.

Which one, Seram. FM3 or FM4? You hit, by the way. :D

F3

>>>>MAP<<<<

Seram slices like a skilled chef.

IT's turn.

IT swing its craghammer in a great arc, smashing into both fishmen.

Cleave vs F3 (1d20+14+2-2=29, 1d8+10=13) 5hp to F4

Rowan has already posted.

Snuffling horribly, Akahale places a gentle curse on the head of FM1 and follows up with a blast of dark power. Hopefully, he watches to see if the gilled horror has any kind of vulnerability, ready at a moments notice to transform his attack into something even more potent. He moves back onto the grass and awaits further developments.

Your Delicious Weakness (Ref) v FM1 with added cursiness (1d20+9=28, 2d6+9=20, 1d8=8). 28hp damage to FM1. 20 psychic, but see below and 8 normal.

If target is vulnerable to any damage types, attack instead deals damage of that type. If target has more than one type of vulnerability, choose preferred damage type.

Move to AA7

"I guess the last hit wasn't enough... Here try this."
Viper Strike - 1d20+13-2+2=26
Damage- 1d10+5=15

Just want to make sure that all hits on FM4 after my last turn had a +2 to damage from my last warlord hit. The description says until the end of my next turn all allies get a +2 damage, so I don't think this hit would be included in that ?

Everyone hit. I think. Sorry for delay, folks.

The heroes stage a remarkable comeback, beating down on the fishmen as the rain beats down on them.

Manny's turn.

Photobucket isn't playing ball, but Manny is now adjacent to a fishman.

"Agh! Gack! Get back you,... Hack! Spit! HAve you never heard of Soap?!? Miserable,... Gag!"

The unhappy wizard points his staff in the general direction of the menacing fishman, and blasts away.

Thunder wave on the next to me fishery!

1d20+11=16, 1d6+8=11

-2 to hit, 14 total to hit. IF that hit (yeah right!) Then the fish takes dmg AND is pushed backwards 2 squares!

That missed. Sorry, Manny. Seram Zal's turn.

The fishman slips away from the wizard's misfiring arc of sonic energy.

On Rowan's next turn he'll casts Sacred Flame on the blinded Fishman: 1d20+9+2: 13+9+2 for a total of 24 vs fishman's reflex doing 1d6+5: 1+5 for 6pts of damage if it hits and grants Seram a saving throw. Can't see the map at the moment though so just hope the sacred flame hits!

>>>>MAP<<<<

Akahale starts to see some people walking out onto the beach.

Seram Zal's turn.

"Father Rowan - there are more innocents walking to doom. I shall attempt to avert their fate. Mandrake can assist perhaps."

Akahale looks doubtfully at the mage as he stands nose to nose with a fishman.

"Or possibly not until he is relieved of that stinking excuse for a crustacean."

"I'll lend a hand once I can get them free," Rowan yells back.

If you don't mind Rowan will stay where he is this round in preparation for engaging in melee next round

Makes much sense. Akahale doesn't have any powers that shift things, but he'll try and help Manny off the cultist before sprinting to the beach.

Ouch at 19 hp. Second wind putting me at 39, +2 to all defenses.

IT moves to aid Mandrake. IT misses the fishman with a crushing blow, but nonetheless draws IT's target's attention.

Move to AA13, drawing OAs. Rolled a 4. Marked #1.

FM3 hits it 32 vs AC 5 normal 3 poison, FM4 hits IT 32 vs AC - 6 normal 2 poison. IT misses. Rowan hits

Akahale's turn.

>>>>MAP<<<<

Pausing only to miss with an eldritch blast, Akahale strides purposefully towards the beach. The effect is marred by a stentorian sneeze.

Home rolled. 1d20+9 (Ref) = 15 v FM1.
Move to EE4 using the grass verge for the first four squares. Concealment gained.

Akahale sees several of the guards from the inn, as well as the merchant Creel, heading towards the waves.

Grafire's turn.

Image of the fishmen attacking.

Akahale entirely disapproves. Those are not crustaceans.

EDIT - how far away are the guards and Creel?

Over 100 feet away from Akahale. South by southwest.

How many turns to get within blast range assuming Akahale runs over the (doubtless) difficult terrain? What this is leading to is, can he get there in time to do anything useful?

If Akhale runs he would normally cover 16 squares - in difficult terrain he covers 8. The called people are walking normally so are covering 6 squares per round. They will enter the sea in 2 rounds time. For simplicity's sake we shall place them at Init 0. Next round Akahle will be within 12 squares of them. the next round he can be within 4 squares, they will then enter the sea, wading.

Invisible castle is down at the time of post
Grafire shifts one sqr E to Z17 - Wolf pack tactics attack on FM4 - rolled a 22 -2(stench)=20. Allows seram to shift one sqr - to Y19.

Sorry if I missed this, but since Rowan's sacred flame hit does Seram rather make a saving throw or gain 7 temporary hp?

He doesn't need a save, so the temp hp would be more useful.

Cool I missed that bit since I've been concentrating too much on the saving throw part!

You can't shift in difficult terrain, I'm afraid. Or rather, you can but you need to be able to shift 2 squares in one go.

Just to let you know I'm moving home in a couple of weeks and might not be able to post until I can get my internet link back up and running, at the moment its about the 19th of october hope this doesn't messd things up for all of you

just the attack then. My other at will is triggered by a shift from the opponent so that wont make a difference.
As a minor I would like to give Seram a healing surge through Inspired presence. Since my original intent was to try and get him out of being flanked. If he decides he would like one if not we wont count it.

A surge would be great. Put me at 59 hp

Mandrake's turn. No map change.

Seram parries and dodges for all he is worth. IT defends his master with tenacity.

MAndrake hacks and coughs, pinching his nose with his semi-free hand. HE cries nasally at the persistent Picine; "Get lost! The fish-fry is friday,... FRI-DAY! Come back then!"

The bushy-haired wizard then fixes his steely gaze upon the wide orbs of the fish-man, and repeats,... "BEGONE" In a voice that seems to echo oddly long after his actual voice has stopped sounding. There is a flare of energy that passes from the mad mages eyes to the white orbs of the fish creature,...

Using encounter power,Vs WILL. ;) Eyebite. If it hits it is Psychic dmg, AND I am invisible to the creature until start of my next turn! :) Eat crazy old man mental powers fish face! ;P

To hit vs WILL: 1d20+6=23, Psychic Dmg: 1d6+2=6 And I'm invisible (I hope!)

The Fishman gets an OA - 26 vs AC. Manny takes 9 damage and 2 poison damage. But he is now indeed invisible to that fishman.

Mandrake disappears from the view of the fishman, although he is still quite visible to everyone else.

Seram Zal's turn. No map change.

The Fishman gets an OA - 26 vs AC. Manny takes 9 damage and 2 poison damage. But he is now indeed invisible to that fishman.

Not so fast!

IT abruptly intercepts the fishman's attack on Mandrake, deflecting most of its force back on the fishman.

Savage Parry (1d20+14-2=26) On hit, Fishman takes 9 (fixed), and Manny takes half damage from Fishy's attack
