Arodio Ambusta's page

I won't be posting for about a week, sorry. Feel free to NPC Arodio in case you want melee support or any other part in which you think he could be useful,hope to be back soon

"Sorry, but i have standard human eyes, i see a fu****g nothing at night.And probably it will do no good if i carry lighted torches with me"

Arodio is bored, but seems like Derek managed to get something useful in the end

"I'll wait for Semenya and Derek to have decided how to handle this drama...i'll play the bodyguard, of course;or the bad cop, i love that part"

Arodio will go to this warehouse too

"Honey, you did just what i wanted"
Arodio readies the flail and shield but they were already readied for sure

Also waiting for map or coordinates

Arodio will try to imagine what the best spot for someone from the outside is to ambush who is inside the shop

I'll be with Appario

"My only counsil would be to be sure they learn their lesson, once i get to put my hands on them.At least this is how i always solved troubles when i had to protect someone from some one else."

I have a terribly busy period,so keeping Arodio's posting to the minimum,he is only useful in combat anyway

"I'll help with thugs"

"If there is to assure the safety of someone, and more important to have a nice evening brawl you cannot leave me here doing nothing but looking at my hands"

"I want to come too of course"

"If you ask me, i'll come with some name like The bonecrusher of Westcrown so maybe better you choose one hahahahaaaaa!!!! now where did i put that bottle?"

Well, i wouldn't mind putting my hands on a great wyrm's hoard, if you think he'll just let us take his stuff and go away without arguing :)

"When we talk of Iomedae faith, i'm in....and i can help with thugs and securing vaults"

I take in account the check penalty individually every time it is needed. I don't write it in the skill because i don't ALWAYS wear the armor

Fending off blows that would have killed a horse? Taking on four hellknights at a time alone? Where was he watching?

Arodio thinks this of the bard's exibition, but keeps it for himself

Arodio just eats and drinks.He presents himself to others if they ask something to him and generally plays the "rude with good heart".

For who doesn't know, i'm italian, and i see from time to time the errors i make in writing.I apologize for those

Yes, i told the other gm as well, i take in account speed depending on situation at hand.Ok for the xp thing

Done with lvl up, only i don't know if i have 2000 (not likely) or 1300 (more probable) xp

I prefer to roll, of course if i roll under average i'll keep it (but rerolling "1").Also putting the fave class bonus in HP

Hit die 1d10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 1 = 10

Not bad for a change ^_^

"I need a bigger weapon, and magical too"

Semenya, Arodio:

Taking a route that incorporates a stop at Semenya's favorite rumormongering inn, you overhear several interesting topics of conversation:

"Did you hear? Bluehood offers 100gp to anyone that drops a shadow beast's corpse at the garbage stoop across from the Leroung estate? Crazy, I tell you, crazy! Who would pay for something like that, and who would be stupid enough to go after one of those monsters?! I don't buy it for a second."

"My aunt, you remember her? The one running a caravan service? Yeah, that's her. Anyway, she was telling me just this morning about how the dottari don't seem to care how many times she complains about bandits, they still won't go outside the city to check it out! Someone must be paying them off to keep away, I say."

As you continue to walk through the city towards the old shrine, night is fast approaching. You...

To Semenya

"Better not being seen all together, i'll gladly go with anyone wants a meat shield, but i'ld surely prefer the company of our green beauty, Semenya."

Arodio agrees to take the horse to their owner

Noticing the mark of Asmodeus's church on the horse, Arodio lets go a series of swearwords, then admits these horses probably cannot be kept or sold, so the only options would be killing them or leaving them free.

"Of course i choose the second"

"Hell yes, stealing from thieves in first place isn't a real crime,plus i like riding;let's see this beauties"

Arodio takes one horse
Riding 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

"It is a nice animal,Hellknights know how to handle their horses"

"Let's move out of here quickly, introductions and explanations can wait"

On his turn, Arodio will run to Appario's side, or else he'll just watch the entire fight

Arodio also holds action for the first hellknight to come in melee range

Just a quick jump in to warn you i cannot post today, maybe this evening, but late

The enemy closest to Arodio would be the Hellknight currently entangled in Q14. Approaching as close as possible during the surprise round would put you at U11 (or close to that square). Approaching further (during the regular round) would put Arodio in the entangled area as well. Do you want to do that?

Nope, also because Arodio isn't going to take advantage of a helpless foe normally;if the situation is such that letting the hellknight see him isn't a suicide (i.e. one enemy at a time) Arodio will go as close as possible without being entangled himself, so to taunt them at least

As i said, i don't know who or where to attack.Arodio will attack the nearest enemy or approach him as much as possible.

If Arodio sees an enemy coming into melee range with some of the others he will run to intercept, otherwise he will run to engage the nearest foe.

I can only engage in melee, so have to wait for party's signals

I'm a lot futher than 20' :-(
Perception 1d20 ⇒ 10

C***O i hate dumb PCs

How to be sure i'm within those 20'? isn't there a map?Or may i use the last map linked by CHP?

Che Dio me la mandi buona
May God be mercyful on me

Stealth 1d20 - 4 ⇒ (3) - 4 = -1 only counting armor check penalty,not sure if encumbrance counts now,Arodio is still in light enc anyway

OK next time i'll say something else before rolling

Arodio'll never be able to do a Stealth check if someone does't help him

Arodio's suggested spot put him behind a tree, hopefully hidden enough if he doesn't move, and also nearby the bridge, so to make it in no time when the ambush starts

Can't wait to begin crushing heads again

I'm waiting for the combat to begin

That doesn't matter as long as you are fine,especially with such events

Well, not that there are a lot of hiding places....there aren't any at all to tell the truth

The only spots that offer some cover are the two trees near the bridge on its right,Arodio will be in U6

Do we have info on the direction the carriage is coming from?

"Best of luck Del"

"Let's storm the bridge"

"You don't happen to have some weapons designed to hamper movement? Like throwing ropes with heavy objects tied at its extremities....Bolas or similar? If we have no time to dig a pit and we are not going to demolish the bridge, the only way to stop a running horse is to aim at its paws."

"Am not a planning genius, just throw me in close quarter with two or three foes and i'll keep them occupied"

"On this i cannot make promises, i don't kill if i can avoid it, but in a melee it is usually me or him.And stay sure i'll defend myself and anyone under my responsibility by any means"

"I'm eager to learn something more about our enemies, and to crush them.Now let's have breakfast, muscles need feeding"
