Heroes of Lastwall

Game Master Tilnar

Doesn't matter anymore, but let's see what we'd've gotten...

Stealth: 2d20 + 0 ⇒ (13, 5) + 0 = 18 13! :D

Fiona doesn't feel herself growing, or anything at all happening, for that matter. Since enlarge person takes 1 round to cast, I believe you can only start casting it in the surprise round.

She takes a moment to judge the situation, but finds it impossible to tell if they've spotted Xiaruau yet—hopefully, she can distract them and let them think she is the only threat. With a shake of her head at Merlan—magic disappoints yet again—she takes matters into her own hands, striding toward the enemy and stripping the leather sheath from her blade. Once she judges she's close enough, she calls out, "Işte, pisi pisi! Annene gel küçük piç!"

Move as shown, draw (unsheathe) fauchard (applying +2 enhancement bonus for 5 rounds), drop glowing rock, challenge kitteh. Fiona's AC is at -2 against everyone but kitteh, and all allies gain +1 to melee attack rolls vs kitteh whenever Fiona is threatening the same.

At the same time, Fiona glances around for any hint of her allies, hoping that Sahar will join her in the fray. Use Yojimbo ability to designate Sahar as her ward.

Well...

While waiting for the thunderstone and faerie fire, Sahar hears Fiona's voice is ringing out a with challenge in Orcish. Sahar decides to add a distraction.

In a firm, clear voice, she calls out to Sarenrae for aid, maintaining her grip on her bow.

Casting divine favor on self (standard action)

Change of plans, I suppose. We will do what we can in the dark and pray for aid.

Lani moves up beside Xia and casts a spell, firing a snowball at the illuminated half-orc!

Snowball, PBS: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 = 11
Cold Damage: 3d6 + 1 ⇒ (3, 6, 1) + 1 = 11

Touch attack so maybe that will hit? If it does, he takes the damage and must make a DC 15 Fortitude save or be staggered for 1 round.

It's move or cast in the surprise round - do you have the range from where you were?

Sorry, I forgot it was a surprise round. I was too far away so I'll cast magic missile at the half-orc instead.

Magic Missile: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (1, 2) + 2 = 5

Surprise Round: Sandy moves to C6 (along with his hawk, whilst Kruss move to B5

Sandy creeps forwards hoping the moonlight conceals his approach to behind the large rock, whilst by his side his lion friend stalks forwards.

Summary: Surprise round

The lead half-orc notices his companion's reaction and as he calls out a warning to his companions, Squeaky takes to the sky, thunderstone in his talons and Merlan begins casting a spell. Fiona leaps out of cover to defend the tiny wizard, calling out a challenge to try to capture the lead orc's attention -- and a heartbeat later, he's illuminated in a violet glow, revealing him to be a half-breed, from Xia's quietly spell. The cat begins to growl and hiss, whether in reaction to Fiona or the purple flames surrounding him is unclear. Sahar calls on the Dawnflower to aid her in the coming battle. Before the half-orc can begin to react, blue darts of force arc across the sky, slamming into him, while Sandy and his companions creep forward to get a better position for his attack.

Initiative Order: Merlan, Fiona (due to delay until Merlan's spellcasting), Orcs (of colour), Xia, Sahar (due to delay until Faerie Fire), Lysander, Lani, Venak, Thrukk

Next Up: Merlan (and Squeaky, bringing the Thunder), Fiona, Rainbow Orc Squad, Rest of Party, Orc leaders.

If you're italicized in the "Next Up", you may post your actions.

Seeing that Merlan is still waving his hands about and yelling in some weird language, Fiona tries to make shushing gestures at him, holding position until he stops pretending to make magic. Yes, Fiona will delay until after Merlan posts. :)

Squeaky flaps upwards, and as he passes over the firepit, drops the small Thunderstone, and keeps on flappin'.

Squeaky drop/to hit a square att: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

Merlan finishes his spell, waggles his fingers, and finishes with a loud, "Engorgio!", sending a wave of sparkling mystic energy flowing to, over and around Fiona.

As the warrior woman starts to grow, Merlan smiles happily.

"I LOVE that spell!"

So, that was the spell from last round, (goes off first of the round, cuz of full-round cast time) I still get THIS rounds actions, yes?

You only get a move action — you used your standard this round to finish casting the spell.

Fiona glances down in surprise as she feels her muscles flexing. A moment later, she's looking over (and down) at a tiny grinning halfling — and she grins back. "Now that's some magic!" she exclaims, twirling her fauchard experimentally. "Ehh, pisi! Buraya!" she calls at the cat again.

Delay until after the rainbow orcs.

Fortitude (One Orc): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Fortitude (Two Orc): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Fortitude (Red Orc): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20 Pass
Fortitude (Blue Orc): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

The orcs cry out as the stone drops, each of them dropping their meals, looking around and loudly crying out, "Saldırı altındayız!", with one voice saying, "Kapa çeneni, onları bulayım!.

One of them points a spear toward Fiona, shouting, "Orada!", and rushes forward, a blade in one hand and a spear in the other. He crosses about half the distance, clearly wary, then hurls the spear at Fiona, though the ringing in his ears completely ruins his aim and the pilum goes wide. He growls, spits, then puts his now-empty hand on his greataxe, shifting to a two-handed grip.

Pilum: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

The other three orcs seem stunned and don't follow right away.

Initiative Order: Merlan, Red Orc, Fiona, Xia, Sahar, Lysander, Blue/Green/Orange Orcs, Lani, Venak, Thrukk

Next Up: Fiona, Xia, Sahar, Lysander,, Blue, Orange and Green Orcs, Lani, Orc leaders. [New round] Merlan, Red Orc.

If you're italicized, you may post your actions...

Did we get to hit Thrukk with the thunderstone as well, by any chance?

Right, 10' radius, sorry. Was thinking 5' like the Faerie Fire.

Fortitude (Thrukk): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

Since he's moved into a place where those with low-light can see him, Red's carrying a greataxe, has several other spears strapped to his back, and is wearing scale.

Fiona grins and steps out from behind the rock in all her embiggened splendor, her breastplate shining brightly in the light from the rock at her feet.

Hefting her fauchard with a grin, she croons softly, "Merhabalar, sevimli küçük cüce cin. Bakalım altını mı akıtacaksın, olur mu?"

With a quick sweep, she brings her polearm to bear and attacks the half-orc! Power attack: -1 to attack, +3 damage. The attack penalty and Strength bonus from enlarge person cancel out for the attack roll, so omitting those.

Attack vs FF (bless, PA, scabbard): 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 = 12
Hero Point!: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 = 16 Oh dice, why do you hate me?
Damage? (scabbard): 2d8 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (6, 1) + 9 + 2 = 18

Scabbard round 2/5 begins now.

Sahar sees Fiona in the light of the lithic lantern and the two orcs advancing towards her. But from when they hid for the ambush, she knows Lani and Xia are hidden somewhere between them. An arrow from that direction might draw attention to the vulnerable spellcasters.

She can barely make out an orc near the campsite at the fringes of the light, and fires at the orc she can see.

shortbow+1 at Mr. Green, DF, 2 range increments: 1d20 + 9 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 9 - 4 = 18
shortbow+1 damage, DF: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

She then pulls her own shining rock from her belt pouch.

Fiona swings her fauchard at the half-orc, but miscalculates from her new vantage point and the heavy weapon is turned aside by the orc's fine armour. No sooner has the attack been launched when the warcat snarls and races at the figure in defense of his master, even if his master is too surprised to react himself.

Fiona, with reach, you get an attack of opportunity as B'targ tries to circle around you -- moving through a number of spaces you threaten before striking from the side.

Bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 Wow, huge kudos to the diceroller all around. So far, the opposition has attacked Fiona twice, and each time, rolled a 1.

Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 47 All good, still hits.

Sahar's arrow flies true, and the orc looks down at the fletching now sticking out of him, and back in the direction from which it came.

Edit: Forgot about the darkness and miss chance. Don't need to change anything. :)

AoO (bless, PA, scabbard): 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 1 - 1 + 2 = 18
Damage (PA, scabbard, challenge): 2d8 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (6, 3) + 6 + 3 + 2 + 3 = 23

[dice=AoO (bless, PA, scabbard)]1d20+7+1-1+2

[dice=Damage (PA, scabbard, challenge)]2d8+6+3+2+3

I don't think the -1 applies as you're now attacking the object of your challenge?

Fiona's weapon bounces off the scales - both metal and natural - of the cat.

Sahar's arrow flies true, and the orc looks down at the fletching now sticking out of him, and back in the direction from which it came.

Oh goody, it worked, Sahar thinks gloomily.

Lysander crouches low and moves through the foliage and towards the big rock getting out his sling and keeping it at his side before finding an orc vaguely visible and in the open.

Whilst Kruss the lion slinking around the other side of the rock and prepares to leap upon anyone that approaches his friend.

Move to C10, if I can. Kyruss moves to A9
Sling at Green: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

The -1 is from Power Attack; there's no -1 from challenge. And sheesh, that kitteh's got armor!

Seeing people, and orcs, running around, but not hearing anything and unable to see much else, Xia continues to attempt to light up the other orcs.

Xia will cast Faerie Fire a second time, getting Orange and the big orc.

Need to discuss fighting at night.

Lysander hurls a stone toward the orcs, but misses in the dark. A moment later, Xia casts her spell, causing violet flames to surround a warrior and the larger orc with the double-axe.

The orcs around the campfire seem to have cleared their heads.

The green orc that Sahar struck starts down the trail, seeking the pathetic human who harmed him, with one of his companions moving with him. They close part of the distance, then they each hurl a spear, placing their now-empty hand on their greataxes, ready to fight.

Pilum (Blue) v. Sahar: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
Pilum (Green) v. Sahar: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Threat
Confirm: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4 Nope

Damage (Piercing): 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Unfortunately for Sahar, the wounded orc is able to retaliate, his spear flying true, even at range.

The other orc follows his lone companion and heads toward the massive figure of Fiona, and, like the others, he hurls his spear before placing both hands on his greataxe.

Pilum (Orange) v. Sahar: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Threat
Confirm: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17 Nope

Damage (Piercing): 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

The orc's spear connects strikes a somewhat glancing blow to Fiona.

Lani's up, then the orc leaders can stop being flat-footed before we do it all again...

Sorry for the delay, busy weekend.

Lani casts a spell and hurls a snowball--

Snowball: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

--clear across the battlefield without hitting anything. Cursing in Gnome, the sorceress falls back.

That's one swingy dice roller

After his brief hesitation, the orc hunter's mind seems to have caught up with the situation, and he begins to shout orders.

"Kefk, Bakon, sihirbazlar var. Onları düzleştirin. Mukreg, okçuyu al. Bu aptal pembeyi bana bırak."

He draws his greatsword as he says the last bit, then smiles and.. shifts, somehow, as if drawing additional bulk from somewhere. He snorts and sidesteps before rushing forward, taking up a place opposite the warcat, and smiling, "Ucuz numara, pembe deri. Sana gerçek sihrin nasıl çalıştığını göstermeyi teklif ederdim, ama buna değeceğini sanmıyorum."

Greatsword (PA): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 for 2d6 + 10 ⇒ (5, 6) + 10 = 21

He smiles as his powerful strike lands, adding, "Önce kurşun bıçakları atsaydım ne kadar ölü olacağını bir düşün."

Behind him, Thrukk nods at the order, and moves forward, drawing his double-axe as he takes up a position with the orcs closing on Sahar. He then begins to call out, in a clear voice, instructions to the warriors, directing them on how to move, reminding them to attack together, to distract you so that the others can take advantage of that and bite deep. Unfortunately for Thrukk, not everyone can hear him.

Round 1 Summary

Merlan completed his spell, making Fiona bigger, stronger, and a larger target. Squeaky dropped the thunderstone, deafening most of the warriors. Fiona attacked their leader, her blow bouncing off his armour, attracting the ire of the warcat, who moved to defend his companion. Xia cast another faerie fire, illuminating the orc with the double-axe and another warrior, while Sahar sunk an arrow into the green orc. Lysander shifted position, ready to spring out, and the orc warriors broke off, two heading toward Sahar, and two to Fiona -- each of whom were struck by a heavy spear. Lani, excited, threw her snowball wide, and the half-orc hunter shouted orders to his warriors, before activating his animal focus, moving to flank Fiona and striking her with a powerful blow. The trailing orc used his tactician ability to make his allies fight more effectively, but only some of them could hear him.

(Red's going to delay to move with Orange. He could hear Thrukk.)

So, um, this might be a good time to remind people about Hero points?

Fiona grunts as the massive orcblade nearly rends her in twain. Coughing up a bit of blood, she spits it at Venak and grins down at him. "Aptal cüce cin, ben değilim sihri göstermen gerek - sana sihirbaz gibi mi görünüyorum?"

Keeping her eyes on the foe, she yells back at Merlan, "Merlan, get your accursed magic off of me, NOW!"

Would Merlan be so kind as to use a standard action to dismiss the enlarge, please?

I will wait to see Fiona and Merlan's actions, then possibly spend hero point to act immediately.

Venak smiles -- or maybe bares his teeth -- it's hard to tell, "Hayır, B'targ için atıştırmalık gibisin. Büyücü büyüsünü bitirmeden seni yiyebilirse belki bütün bir yemek."

Fiona smirks back, gritting her teeth to keep her head through the pain. "Ohhh, bu yüzden mi beni parçalamaya çalışıyorsun? zavallı küçük kedicik kendi yemeğini çiğneyemez, ha? Öyle söylemeliydin!"

Venak says, "Doğurmak mı? Küçük aşk kapağım sadece göğüs zırhımın paçasını parlattığınız için bir teşekkür oldu. Ama karaciğerini yerken dişlerinin ne kadar keskin olduğunu bana söyleyebilirsin."

"Wait, you want me to,... do what now? SERIOUSLY?!?" Merlan's voice rises from behind Fiona incredulously.

"Spend ALL of my life trying to be BIGGER, give her a miracle and HOW am I thanked? I SERIOUSLY do not, will never, understand tall folk! Merlan grumbles as he makes a simple sign of negation with his hand and ends the spell prematurely.

OK, welll,... :P Since I had to spend a standard action to negate the spell (I can't simply drop it as a free action because I'm not maintaining it) that leaves me a move action this round. Not enough to conjure a summons. (need a full round) Takes a move action to load my staff-sling, so can't even get a missile off this round. (just like a crossbow, only halfling so its cooler!) :) SO basically I can shift positions maybe? Loading as I go, but thats about it for this round. :(

You can also use a hero point for an extra standard action.

Hero Points can give you extra actions.

EDIT: Ninja'd!

At Merlan's motion, Fiona returns to her normal size, just out of reach of her foes... for the moment, while Squeaky double moves back to his pet halfling.

Hero Points can give you extra actions.

EDIT: Ninja'd!

Well now, WHY didn't you (both) SAY so in the FIRST place?!? ;P OK, actually READ about hero points now,... let do THIS:

Merlan watches Fiona shrink back down, just out of reach of her now equal-sized opponent.

"NO appreciation for the Mystic Arts!" he grumbles as he reaches into his spell pouch for an important bit.

"THIS ought to even the odds then. Some." he adds as, seeing the possibly dire predicament of the others, he manages to rush his spell just a little bit, maintaining it's integrity,...

"Anuull, Nathrak, UthSpaa, Spaythuud,..."

Use 1 hero point to get back a standard action, use 1 round to cast Summon 1, calling THIS lil fella Appears at end of round and takes an action yes? After that he goes on my turn (for simplicity;s sake if nothing else?) ;P

Merlan finishes his spell, and cries "Melenkurian Abatha! Celestial Hound! I choose YOU!"

There is a flash of light from behind the half-orc facing Fiona, and when the glare subsides, there is a mastiff standing behind the half-orc, a slight golden glow suffusing his fur.

Merlan dances happily, hopping from foot to foot, "Hahhah! Say 'ello to my leetle friend! SIC'EM SPOT!"

'Spot' will go all SMITE-y on the Half -orc when he attacks. I used the spells range to drop him RIGHT into flanking the guy with Fiona. Let em know when it's his turn to attack! :) OH YES, and he lasts 4rounds.

Fiona shakes her head at Venak's offer, jabbing at the cat with her now-normal-sized polearm and hoping against hope that whatever fell curse Merlan (accidentally?) put on her is no longer affecting her aim.

I realized I was cheating before; the scabbard is only going to add +1 to the attack roll, because the fauchard is already masterwork.
Stabby (bless, scabbard): 1d20 + 7 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 7 + 1 + 1 = 24
Damage? (scabbard, challenge): 1d10 + 4 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 2 + 3 = 14

"Teklifin için minnettarım ama reddetmek zorunda kalacağım. Otopsi sırasında eğer isterseniz ağzını inceleyeceğim," she replies, with a grin of triumph. The triumph bit assumes that 24 hits. If it doesn't... forget what I said about surrender not being an option. :P

Keeping her weapon up, she repositions herself—not to be confused with retreating—over the rockpile behind her and out of the enemy's pincers, grabbing a potion from her belt and downing it in one swift motion. Not swift, actually... hero point to quaff.

CSW: 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 1, 7) + 5 = 18
HP now 24/32. Scabbard round 3/5 begins now.

Fiona has a slight moment of panic as the fauchard slides on the beast's scales before finding purchase and biting in.

I'm going to pass on using the HP to advance in init - I won't be able to do much more than double move or move and make a low probability shot. After what Fiona said, she'd be less panicky.

B'targ howls at the indignity of being injured and rushes Fiona, leaping onto the rockpile and snarling at Lani as he does so.

Fiona, AoO as he crosses through your reach

The pilum hits with a heavy thud, bringing no pain in the fury of battle, but the wave of cold that sweeps through Sahar tells her it has struck hard. It falls to the ground, wrenching free of her flesh as she ignores it for the moment. Her right hand brushes her holy symbol with a whispered word even as her left twitches another arrow from the quiver. Hearing Fiona and the orc leader calling out, she knows she must hurry and support her new companion. She looses a hasty arrow at the orc who shot her and takes off.

Swift: Fervor, casting shield of faith. AC 18 + 2 deflection = 20 (19 when using bow)

On Mr. Green, mw composite shortbow +1: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 9 + 1 - 4 = 16(+1 bless, -4 melee)
bow dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 (+1 STR, +2 luck)

Burn 1 HP for extra move.
Move: 30' carrying light. Free: drop rock. Extra move 30': drawing while moving.

She hustles closer to the battle, sweeping her scimitar from the scabbard.

"I am with you!"

I'll take the AoO as long as he doesn't have cover.

Not that it matters, Sahar, but Mr. Green isn't in melee.

See how I retroactively undo damage to Fiona as she makes the kitty take a nap of the eternal persuasion.

Flowing retcon..

As B'targ leaps on the rock to attack Fiona, she swings, catching the cat and using its own momentum against it, driving the weapon deep into its armoured body... and it slumps, limp... falling dead from her weapon. Venak snarls, the playfulness and ego gone from his tone, leaving only a cold menace, "Çok çok yavaş öleceksin. Sana kendi karaciğerini besleyeceğim."

Sahar fires off another shot, adding a second bit of fletching to the orc warrior's decorations.

Lysander and Xia, then it's (mostly)deaf warrior time.

Lysander sees the battle seem to pivot, but their numbers not bee whittled too much and decides to harry the enemy whilst he asks his companion to flank around.

He lets fly with a stone at the closet orc he sees whilst keeping cover, hoping to annoy them without drawing their ire too much - whilst he feels the canines in his mouth grow longer. His nails start to harden, into claws.

Kruss moves to A10, if possible
Kruss Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Sling Vs Blue: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Unsure of what her companions are doing, and unable to hear anything, Xia suddenly disappears from where she was standing. A moment later, Fiona suddenly feels a touch on her shoulder. Suddenly thousands of tiny butterflies appear around Fiona distracting all those who might attack her.

Fiona hears a soft voice behind her.
Butterfly protect from orcs.

Swift Action - Flicker, turn invisible for 3 rounds

Move - move adjacent to Fiona

Standard - Cast Shield of Faith - +2 Deflection to AC

Xia is now standing adjacent to Fiona, but is invisible.

Nice, that should help with Mister Big-sword. Thanks!

Fiona twitches at the touch, nearly whirling to attack until the soft voice halts her. She tenses as the magical butterflies appear, but merely raises an eyebrow. More magic? I guess we'll see if this sort works any better...

DM: Kindly note that since her challenge has ended, Fiona's AC is back to normal.

Lysander's bullet flies true, striking the orc, while his companion continues to advance stealthily. Xia vanishes from sight and silently wraps her in a magical field of protection.

The orc Sandy hit (blue), unable to hear his orders, growls and rushes the Druid, closing the distance, though missing with his greataxe. His partner(green), follows, racing to get into position, but unable to strike.

Greataxe (Blue): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

The warrior able to hear (red) rushes southward, past his leader, closing the distance with the gnome sorceress, attempting to eliminate a spellcaster as directed. His greataxe strikes true, wounding the gnome.

Greataxe (Red): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17 for 1d12 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

His partner seems confused, but follows, unable to quite close the distance to reach a target.
