Laszlo - 'Laz''s page

Hey guys, this is a drive-by post. I apologize for vanishing. Work has increased exponentially in the last month and it looks like I'm going to be almost completely offline until the end of January. That might possibly slip into the first week in February as well.

Feel free to bot my character if that works best. If you'd rather replace my character given the projected length of my absence, that is fine too. I completely understand. Thanks!

While enjoying his lump of coal, Laz comments on the statue, "The star thing on the woman show she is connected to a group called the Runelords from the far past. They were powerful lizards or maybe wizards from thousands of years ago."

Knowledge: History (on the coal-giving fattie): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

Thanks for the holiday prezzie!

Knowledge: History: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Laz advances looking to cover the corridors in multiple directions.

Laz jumps at the sight of the crazed creature running towards them "What hell?!" He looses two arrows at the creature.

FULL: FOB

"Let's go get the Birdcrunchers."

Laz offers in goblin since he doesn't speak common, "We can bring your brood-mate with us, for your death rituals. We will be careful with him."

Laz nods carefully, "We will get you to elf-friend. Stay with us - there may be more Birdcrunchers."

Laz looks skeptically about all the talk of gods and powers, trusting in more tangible sources of strength... he grabs the rather sizable composite bow from the loot pile and plucks the string, finding the words of the Gods in the resonance of the sinew.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Cool news on the bow - thanks!

So does a M Composite Shortbow count as a S Composite Longbow?

The archer frowns at the loud looter, then opens the door.

STR Check (if needed): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Laz steps over the elf's body and listens at the door he died by, hoping to find out if the room is occupied before entering.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Laz's bow twangs twice as he puts a set of arrows in the half-elf's back.

FULL: FOB

Laz steps into the corridor and tries to send an arrow into the half-elf while avoiding his goblin ally.

MOVE: 10' (on map)
STAND: Bow

Doh! Blew my chance to add my next round moves to the previous post. Sorry about that.

Laz steps away from the half-elf and fires a set of arrows at the quick bastard. Both arrows catch only air.

FREE: 5' (on map)
FULL: Bow

AoO: Unarmed (crit: 20/2x)
MODS: None
HIT: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
DAM: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Not sure who that guy is in the North/South passage. If its the Tian woman or a normal human who doesn't look like a combatant, I'll signal him over. If he's a baddie, I'll shoot.

Laz stalks along the north corridor and spies a figure in the corridor. He delays long enough to determine if it's a townie or a combatant.

MOVE: 30'
STAND: Arrow or signal

STAND: Composite Shortbow (crit: 20/3x; 70')
MODS: STR, PBS
HIT: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 1 = 11
DAM: 1d4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 = 5

Laszlo stalks quietly up the stairs, bow ready, looking for trouble...

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (8) + 18 = 26
Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

Sorry for going silent over the last few days. I got sick as a dog while coming back from vacation and I've been bed-ridden since then. I'll try to catch-up with the game and post within the next day or so.

Hey folks,

I'm going to be on vacation for about 10 days starting on Tuesday (7th). I'll try to post but I may not have the opportunity regularly. Feel free to bot me as needed.

Laz is so surprised by the sudden withdrawal of the Birdcrunchers that his arrows flying at their fleeing backs miss.

FULL: Composite Shortbow (crit: 20/3x; 70')
MODS: STR, FOB, PBS
Arrow #1 HIT: 1d20 + 5 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 - 1 + 1 = 8
Arrow #1 DAM: 1d4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4

Arrow #2 HIT: 1d20 + 5 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 - 1 + 1 = 8
Arrow #2 DAM: 1d4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 1 = 4

Laz delivers a swift kick to the Birdcruncher near him... proving that Birdcrunchers can get crunched.

STAND: IUS

Laz sneaks into the room and finds a good spot to shoot Birdcrunchers. As the others launch their attacks or move in to strike, he fires.

MOVE: Stealth into room to an unobstructed sniping position
STAND: Shoot in time with the other attacks

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (7) + 18 = 25

Laz sands back, bow ready, watching the doors and windows.

Laz stuffs the potion in his bandolier and checks his bow - ready to set out for the Glassworks.

Personally, I don't see a reason to lie about the encounter. We could just as easily spin the facts in a positive light. We ran into the elf that wiped out a large number of experienced gobbos. We realised the five of us couldn't take her... so we bought time for our tribe by 'negotiating' with her which gives us time to warn the tribe and prepare to ambush her with a lot more fighters. We also cleverly found out that all the elf really wants is some woman and if we find her, we can make the elf go away. We're giving the chief two good options: We can make the elf leave (and not lose a lot more gobbos) or we have enough time to prepare an ambush that will let us kill the elf. Win-Win.

However, if you guys want to lie to the chief, I'll play along. It really makes no difference to me.

I say tell the chief, particularly about what the elf plans to do in three days, and then head out to the the Glassworks.

From outside the skylight, Laz looks on and shrugs. "Either we find the Tian or we need everyone to jump on that elf-girl when she comes back." The archer wipes the dirt from his feet, ready to go find Ameiko right now.

yo

Laz pops from cover and warily closes the distance to the skylight, his bow ready.

Just a standard MOVE during the surprise round, however close that gets me. I won't fire unless the elf starts a fight.

Laz will hide in one of the blinds he set up (hiding under an eave or whatnot) on a higher roof nearby to oversee the target window and/or the likely approach routes.

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (16) + 18 = 34 I'll Take 20 on Stealth if possible, otherwise use the included roll.

I can't do much more than contribute a feeble Craft AA.

Craft: Untrained AA: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (11) + 0 = 11

Racism! Gobbos can be different! :)

Yeah, Laz has low standards... and this chick doesn't meet them.

Laz slides down a nearby drainpipe and presents the long blond hair to the others. "This belongs to our shooter, maybe."

At length, Laz tracks down the group investigating the goblin deaths. He listens quietly to the conversation and then looks over the wounds on the body, comparing them to his arrow-heads. Afterwards, he scampers onto the roof and looks for any indication of the stalker.

"I like puppet idea... got to make sure other gobbos aren't sleeping under windows to make stalker come to us. I should hide on roof close by and watch for him."

Perception (examine wound): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Climb: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Perception (examine roof): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Gupy was looking for a little action on the side. And her hubby is a solid gobbo fighter with a jealous streak and a temper.

Laz watches the woman flee, surprised she can move that much fat up the stairs so quickly. He leaves the basement and heads back to his lair, anxious to get back to hunting for the goblin-snatcher.

Cool. I'll jump into the Slayer group when I have a moment.

Laz sheathes his rat-hunting weapon, flexes his fingers and then rolls them into tight fists. His knuckles crack from the strength in his fingers and forearms. He eyes Gupy levelly. "That door better be open when I get to it, and you better be out of my way... or I'm going through both of you." He starts slowly walking towards the door, giving Gupy about 12 seconds to act.

Intimidate: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (13) - 2 = 11

Laz looks at the gob woman flatly. "Not gonna happen, Gupy. If you push this, I'll flatten you." It is a warning without an ounce of bluff in it.

Laz is suspicious of the 'reward' but he shrugs, "OK, I'll go kill'em."

Laz thinks on the offer. "Rat things not rats? They hiding below your house? What did they look like?" He weighs things a bit more, "Maybe I can help... Did Ki Ah have trouble catching them? And what kind of reward you got in mind?" Knowing Gupy's reputation, Laz is wary of what she'd call a 'reward'.

From his attic lair and jury-rigged thief's highway along the town's roofs, Laz sets up several clandestine watch positions from where he can hold all-night vigils. He takes to patrolling from the rooftops - especially watching areas where many goblins live.

Stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (10) + 18 = 28
Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Hey, guys, I am flying out for an offsite company pow-wow today. I'll be gone through Thursday and expect to have little chance to post. Feel free to bot my character as needed.

Good luck!

Yep. I've got nothing to contribute to the scene so I'm just staying out of the way.

We should probably try to heal up our wounded. Puseater is down. I think Sticky and Tochack are at 1 HP. Anyone else in trouble?

Laz searches for any unbroken arrows from the ones that went astray of their targets.
