Josef moves to a better vantage point where he can see the enemy. This means Meepette is no longer within his blessed aura, but brings Folmyr into it as he focuses to expand its range.

He then fires upon the thug threatening the little sprite.

◆ Stride
◆ Expand bless emanation to 10 feet
◆ Strike Blue bow (volley, bless): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13 for piercing damage: 1d8 ⇒ 4

Dolmandir is surprised by the sudden appearance of the bandit and reacts late.

Nevertheless, he acts quickly, crossbow in hand.

He loads it with some alchemical mixture, reloads it while taking some cover +7 Stealth and shoots!

Alchemical Crossbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Alchemical Crossbow (HP): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28
Damages, P + 1d6E +1d6 precision: 1d10 + 2 + 1d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 2 + (4) + (6) = 18

(◇) interact: draws crossbow (Way of the Sniper)
(◆) interact: put a lightning bottle in his alchemical crossbow
(◆) take cover and reloads crossbow (Way fo the Sniper)
(◆) Strike

Meepete will run towards the half orc, seeing that he might be in trouble.

She screams out Youse nots hurt pretty teefs. Mees makes you pay. as she looks to the half orc Mees casts a spell now but you no listen to the secret magic words okay?

She reaches out her hand, still dubious that the half orc is not listening to her magic word and she says, Secret Magic word! as she casts an acid splash at the baddy in front of her

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
1d6 ⇒ 2 +1 splash acid damage

White steps up to Ulvard and tries to strike the warrior and grab him as wel

I know the token is 10 feet away, but the description is that he stepped up to you and tried to grab you. Therefore you don't have to stride to him. You can take a 2nd swing or step if you want.

I thought maybe he had a ranged weapon.

Ulvard tries a backswing... on the off chance he has time.

strike2,MAP: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (17) + 8 - 5 = 20
damage: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

no worries. I thought the same. You're eviscerating that guy

White actually stepped towards Ulvard, tried a snagging strike, failed and stepped back. It appears I didn't fix the map to reflect that White stepped back so White is actually still where he started (10 feet from Ulvard). So for Rodthalas and Ulvard, I'll let you keep the dice rolls if you can get it to fit. Sorry about that.

Dolmandir, who you shooting at?

Josef steps out into the street. He points his bow at Blue and fires. The arrow unfortunately flies over the ruffian's head. Meepette says some magic words and shoots acid at Blue, hitting him and causing him to yell in pain.

Ah I see. Okidoki. I'll cancel the drawing of the sword. Rodthalas will instead stride towards White and strike with the shield boss which does the same damage of 1d6 but bludgeoning

Rodthalas walks towards White and smashes him in the face with his shield.

@GM sorry, shooting at blue!

◆ Folmyr begins making clicking sounds with its feet as it begins raging
AC is now 17

◆ Strike Blue: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Damage: 1d12 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 6 = 17

◆ Strike Blue: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (20) + 8 - 5 = 23
Damage: 1d12 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 3 + 6 = 21

Of course, that all assumed that Blue was still alive. If Blue was dead, then 5-foot step into Red and use the first attack above as the third action. If Blue dropped after the first strike above, then 5-foot step into Red as the third action.

Did het acid splash onto the person behind her target.

I'll just keep my initial post

Ulvard draws his sword, strides to White and clobbers him. White reels from the blows and attacks his tormentors.

Rodthalas, Ulvard: 3d2 ⇒ (2, 2, 1) = 5

Snagging Strike vs Ulvard AC 19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Club vs Ulvard AC 19, MAP: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Club vs Rodthalas AC 19, MAP 2+: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

I actually forgot but it doesn't matter at this point...

◆◆ Sudden charge into White's space
Strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Damage: 1d12 + 3 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 3 + 6 = 20

◆ Second strike: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (4) + 8 - 5 = 7

Folmyr charges at White from across the street and opens a jagged slash in the ruffian's abdomen. The Ruffian is on his last legs but is still up.

"Whoa!" Rodthalas is shocked by the power of the barbarian sprite. He draws his short sword, and he maneuvers to the back of White, effectively flanking him.

◆draw shortsword
◆stride to flank
◆strike: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
piercing: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

As Rodthalas moves to flank White, White takes a swipe at him.

AoO, Club vs Rodthalas AC 19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Bludgeoning: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

White's club slams into Rodthalas' gut, knocking the wind out of him.

His allies need healing. But if he can finish the fight they'll need it less. When they're this close, maybe attacking is more efficient?

Josef hurries over to the other side of the building and looses another arrow. He's way too close, but it brings the melee combatants into his spell.

* Stride
* Stride. Bless aura still 10 feet.
* Strike. Attack (bless, volley): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26 for piercing damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1 x 2 + deadly: 1d10 ⇒ 9 = 11

Rodthalas uses his ↺ Reactive Shield feat to block the blow with his Steel Shield. His shield has hardness 5 so it takes -7 so 13/20. He also takes the remainder of 7 damage, 9/16. Is this correct?

The little kobold runs as fast and as far as her little clawed feet will carry her. She is not happy about running so fast and wrinkles her snout in annoyance.

She sees the white baddy still present and in frustration speaks SECRET MAGIC WORD! as ice begins to form around her opponents legs and feet.

Clinging Ice
DC 17 Reflex

Freezing sleet and heavy snowfall collect on the target's feet and legs, dealing 1d4 cold damage and other effects depending on its Reflex save. Once this spell ends, the target becomes temporarily immune for 1 minute.

Critical Success The target is unaffected.
Success The target takes half damage.
Failure The target takes full damage, and takes a –5-foot circumstance penalty to its Speeds until the spell ends.
Critical Failure The target takes double damage and a –10-foot circumstance penalty to its Speeds until the spell ends.

1d4 ⇒ 2 cold

Ulvard snarls when his, *his* opponent dares attack someone other than himself.

"Ulvard is The BIGGEST THREAT." he snarls. "STUPID CIVILISED MAN. DEAL WITH BIG THREAT FIRST."

He starts to froth at the mouth at the stupid ignorance of the man in white. And as he does so, his sword begins in keen. Skulls seem to dance along it as he ancestors seem to want to talk civilised-man-flesh.

Rolls don't include bless add +1 if in range. I have not included FF bonus either, so likely another +2 to hit

strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
damage,rage(negative): 1d12 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 3 = 8

Then he swings again
strike: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (17) + 8 - 5 = 20
damage,rage,neg: 1d12 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 3 = 8

* rage AC reduced to 18
* strike
* strike

Josef crosses the alley between buildings and sends an arrow at the remaining ruffian. The arrow drives into the Ruffian's eye and kills him instantly.
