Not seeing Rahger working on Thaxos Chumani calls out, "Stop that old fools bleeding we need him alive for the council." He then turns and swings a closed fist a Lucian hoping to knock him out.
Chumani looks at the bleeding form of Thaxos for a moment and then turns to deal with the chaos he has wrought. Moving around the spell effect he heads for Lucian, trying as quickly as possible to get between the man & Dai.
Chumani steps forward taking the space Dai had just cleared and swings again at Thaxos.
"Keep the pressure on him!" Chumani steps forward and swings again with his mace this time swinging it with two hands.
Chumani grabs at his head with both hands trying to physically fight off the compulsion as he fights it off mentally. After a brief struggle he drops his hands and looks up at the psychic. "You pushed your luck old man, now this ends!" Chumani steps around the body of the kank and stalks toward Thaxos drawing the mace at his belt moving to not be caught in Rennoc's spell, but does call out to the others. "Unconscious only, DO NOT KILL HIM!"
Chumani finally slips free and moves toward Hamailii, but seeing her unconscious keeps moving to chase Thaxos. Hoping he can do something before given another command.
Chumani continues to struggle to escape from the tiny halfling, but can't seem to get away.
Chumani slips away from Rahger and once again heads for Hamailii attempting to grab her, but is unable to get a good grip.
Chumani struggles to free himself from the surprisingly strong grip of his halfling companion but can't break free.
Chumani shrugs off the effect of the dust and then moves toward Hamailii and reaches for her.
Cronax:
Hey, not to be difficult but did Thaxos manifest on the defensive? If not he would have provoked an AoO from several of us. Per the mounted combat rules he is considered to be in all of the squares his mount occupies both for good and bad. Of course he could have just 5' stepped the mount, but I wanted to check since this could make or break us stopping him.
Chumani takes off at a sprint, trying to get close to Thaxos and his kank.
Chumani bellows in response to Gideon's question, "NO! NO WE WILL NOT LET HIM LEAVE!" Then moves to stop Thaxos from leaving.
I had already had that thought. And you gave him 1 he didn't say keep giving them. JD
I'm leaving on vacation this morning and will be back late Sunday night. I should have some access while I'm gone but it will most likely only be in the mornings or evenings Pacific time. If my absence is delaying things please feel free to bot Chumani. Cronax: Chumani does not want to kill Thaxos, just knock him unconscious to make easier to transport back to Tyr, but will not take the penalty for doing sub-dual damage when attacking as he believes he is to dangerous to take the chance to miss.
It takes a moment, but Chumani realizes Thaxos is using powers of his own to manipulate his friends. Chumani does not waste his breath trying to convince his friends of their error, but instead moves to stop the threat. He draws his new steel sword and swings at Thaxos, not wanting to kill him but having no other way to bring this to and end quickly.
Cronax: So looking at the power, and Thaxos command/suggestion.
It seems like it could end once no one is holding him (let me go now), he is untied, and has been given a kank? Or are you thinking the "let me go know" will imply the effect lasting till he is X feet away or out of site? I don't think it will change my actions, just wondering.
Chumani listens carefully as the men speak, opting to remain silent.
Message Rennoc:
"I agree with getting the recognition for doing this, but the recognition does us no good if we are dead. Yes a group conversation would be good before we reach Tyr, it is time to make some decisions. As for what I am willing to do that we will cover during the group conversation."
Collecting the items from Thaxos Chumani turns to Rennoc, "Can you see if any of the items we have found are magical?"
Chumani brings the procession to a halt as Rennoc replies to Thaxos. Once stopped he takes a solid silent minute to thoroughly search Thaxos, then looks to Gideon. "Do you mind checking him for anything hidden as well?" Once the searches are complete the march back to Tyr will continue. "We best all be on alert, Thaxos likely still has people in his employee that may think it a good idea to rescue him."
Chumani will take the rope offered by Ranger to bind Thaxos before the group moves out.
Chumani moves to grab Thaxos before he can get a chance to do anything unwanted. Once he has Thaxos in hand he calls out to his companions, "Grab anything of value from the bodies and let us go."
Chumani kneels, catching his breath as he lets the more talented speakers of the group attempt to resolve the issue. Taking the time to try and heal a few of his wounds in case the fight continues.
Chumani rolls with the fire, preventing it from being as effective but it still hurts. Looking at the remaining targets he tries to determine where to focus assault next. Realizing Borras will continue to pound them with his powers Chumani makes a wild charge, jumping wildly and barely clearing the corner of Gideon's kank but landing just in front of Borras. Bringing his earth breaker straight down on his head and not stopping till it hits the now gooey sand below.
Total Damage: 93
Chumani gives Dai a quick nod as she heals him, "Thanks, again." Then focuses on the job at hand and brings the earth breaker around for another swing, which impacts with another solid thunk.
As the blow hits Chumani calls out to his companions, "Keep your eyes out for the other two!"
Chumani quickly manifests a bit of extra speed to slip out of what would have been a painful strike by his new opponent and responds in kind.
Chumani grits his teeth and keeps his mind focused as the ice pounds him. As his earth breaker appears he starts to move forward seeking a target and deciding to join Dai in beating on Cratek. His first swing goes wide and Chumani swears in giant, "FRAK!" He the steadies his self and swings again, smiling at the audible crack of the weapon hitting its target.
Seeing the dust storms disappate and there original targets still waiting Chumani realizes they must redirect their focus or they all will fall. Chumani calls out so all his friends can hear him, "Regroup! Our targets await us!" Chumani summons his inner power to help protect himself and then steps to Dai's side to stay between her and the bugs while also being able to watch their true opponents. Once in position he concentrates to call a new weapon to his grasp.
Chumani surveys the battle, happy for the break. "Agreed, but everyone take a moment to heal or better prepare first if needed." Chumani then drops the broken earth breaker to the ground and summons his inner strength to heal himself.
Chumani avoids the flames of Dai's spell and turns to deal with more of the kreen's.
Chumani's first blow strikes true, dropping another of the giant bugs, but the smoke from his second's burning body gets in his eyes and he totally misses the creature. He the steps in to the shadow of Rahger's kank, hoping it will give him at least one side the bugs can not attack from.
Chumani glances back at the others seeing a route out, the focuses on dealing with the targets in front of him.
Once using the weight of the giant earth breaker Chumani puts his entire body in to swinging it at the kreens facing him. It impacts with a loud "THUNK" as it takes the head off the first and them immediately crushes the side of its companion only slowing down slightly. Having removed the immediate threats Chumani looks for the best place to join his friends and decides to take Rahger's other flank.
Understood!
Chumani sees the chance to drop several of the creatures quickly, so he steps forward to attack.
The earth breaker comes around quickly just below waist level on the first kreen, crushing his legs and dropping him to the ground unmoving. The earth breaker continues its deadly swing, but glances off the hard carapace of the second kreen.
Chumani brings his earth breaker around catching the one closer to Dai in the chest and caves it in. Then he steps over the body of the fallen insect and moves to help flank the last one standing in front of Dai.
