Gladiator #337's page

With such an amazing display of martial prowess from both sides, Stonefist wonders why he should stop?

Damage 13

A record high to hit roll!
...I get the feeling this could take a while...

Mini rant time!
Man my rolls have been horrendious lately! Especially my to hit rolls...

Ya, aside from the first hit, I have yet to swing better then a wet kitten :(
_______________
Rant over :)

BTW would you mind putting up the map up after the different arenas in the header so that I dont have to go digging through the recruitment thread every time I need to move? It would make things a lot easier :)

Ok then, no worries :)

Having managed to keep close to his chain wielding friend, Stonefist strikes again!

It did seem rather one sided in pit 6 there :P
I will have to make sure I can deal with threats like that when I get there ^-^

backtracking a bit. When you take a 5-ft step away from me I take a 5-ft step to G 10 as an immediate action so I am still beside you. If you want to change your action after that, go ahead

"Oh no you don't, you ain't getting away that easily!"

"Aye, with honor. Here, have a basket!"
The Dwarf says while dodging the kick. He then retaliates with a slash of his own.

To hit 8
Damage 6
Dice must hate baskets...

Since Stonefist is not much of a stealther, he just simply moves to the middle of the arena.
Move to F 10

Wasting no time in getting ready, Heavyhand raises his shield and steps forward.
Move to B 10

Heavyhand Stonefist W:1, L:0, T:0, Fame:3

The short and squat dwarf is covered from neck to foot in heavy armor, complete with a large shield in his right hand and a broad axe in is left. Across his back is straped a crossbow and a finely woven basket tops his head. Adorning his armor can be seen images of his heraldry, images of dwarves and elephants duking it out, images of dwarves burning in lava and a finely protrayed portrait of a portrait of cheese. On his back is a single word. Boatmurdered...

Tipping his basket hat to the crowds he udders a single phrase.
"Baskets for sale! Only 5sp apiece! High quality!"

Initiative 13

BTW, I did a bit of a change to my guys equipment, who do I send it to for this next match?

I am here, just waiting for confirmation in arena 3, then should be good to go.

After the complete fail of the last swing the goblin seems somehow mesmerized by the show of poor swordsmanship. Well what worked once was worth doing again!

Honestly, this could take a while :P I say just start the next round of randomizing without us, we will still be fine if we miss it :D

alright I will ret con the 8 damage from the first claw, thanks :)
Yes you only get 1 attack during a grapple, btw check out animal fury once gou get to level 4 ,') It is a feral gnashers dream come true. And later hive totem is very nice!
Round 4

Having easilly dodged the goblins clumsy blows Stonefist strikes again with a mighty down chop!

...That is way off...
Attack 5 for 9 damage
A 1 and a 2? Yeash!

maintaining the grapple is a standard action (or move if you have greater grapple) so you cannot full attack at the same time. That said, neither the grapple or the second claw hit so don't worry about it this round.
Round 3

While he managed to free himself from the wretched goblins lockjaw hold he did take damage from the creatures claw in the process. Adopting a defensive position, Stonefist slashes upwards with a light slash that comes no where near hitting.

Attack 10 for 12 damage.
Come on dice!

Ouch... you beat my ac by 1 and my CMD by 1...
Round 2

Stonefist grunts in pain as the small goblin latches on with its sharp teeth and gouges him with one of his claws, the other one glancing off of his armor. That makes him mad. Mad enough to be a basketcase! He struggles madly against the clamped goblin

I am going to assume a grapple check of 12 is not going to cut it.... Your up!

np :)
Then I take a moveto go up to E11 and standard to attack.
That was round 1 btw and it is your turn.

From L10 to E10 is 35 feet. You can move that fast?
Assuming you can, I line up a mighty swing across the midsection!
If you can't then I move up the nessisary amount to stand toe to toe with you.

Attack 22 for 14 damage.

A barbarian can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. Starting at 1st level, a barbarian can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier. At each level after 1st, she can rage for 2 additional rounds. Temporary increases to Constitution, such as those gained from rage and spells like bear's endurance, do not increase the total number of rounds that a barbarian can rage per day. A barbarian can enter rage as a free action. The total number of rounds of rage per day is renewed after resting for 8 hours, although these hours do not need to be consecutive.

By beserk, you mean rage? Yes you can, and since it is a free action you can still take a standard action:)

Heavyhand Stonefist W:0, L:0, T:0, Rep:0
Surprise Round
Wowzers. I guess I had a pretty bad chance of going first! And sure, I can pm you next time :)
Me no spraken gobo. Me xenophobic. Me spraken Ancient Dwarfish!

Springing into action, unusual for a dwarf laiden in heavy armor, Stonefist Heavyhand adopts a low crouch, shield high and in front, and barrels forward.

move action, move to E11. You are in L10 BTW

Stonefist Heavyhand
I imagine guy #3 has to start dead center and automatically go last? ^u^
He would probably have to start at the far left/right side of the field, I doubt that this would be much of an issue balance wise.

Initiative 21 I take it I am going first :P

Stonefist Heavyhand

"Well. I'm off to go make someone a basketcase. Some guy named Naptu Messy... Odd name indeed! Time to weave the strands of fate on his demise!"

I would prefer to start sooner :)
But if I am the only one, I got no real qualms about starting on monday, just anxious to start is all :)

"Anyone in need of a fine dwarven basket? I got plenty of wares!"
