Melifan Karneyus's page

I am so sorry for my absence and for what I have to do next. Due to my serious lack of time due to my new job, I will be pulling myself out of this game and all other games until I can find the proper balance between life and work and gaming. I currently work 12 hour days driving and need enough sleep not to nod off at the wheel which gives me about 2 hours of free time a day and my wife and child come before RP happy fun time. I feel that it is not fair to the rest of you for me to half a$$ my way though the game just to be a presence. I cannot tell you how disappointed I am that I cannot continue this through completion because I had an amazing time with you guys. I hope I can RP with you all again in the future (hopefully the near future) and wish you all the best.

Sorry guys, I have pretty much no time at the moment. My posts will be sparse for the next week or two. I am in intensive training and running back to back 12 hour shifts for the next 7 days. Please feel free to DMPC my character when needed to move things along. I will update my char as soon as I have some free time.

Yup. Level 3 on the way.

GM, I do not recall, how are we doing HP again?

Just poking my head in since Melifan is taking no further actions for the scene unless someone interacts with him. He is sulking pretty much. ^_^

From the loot, out of character, I think the shortbow would benefit Melifan. In character though, Melifan will not go out of his way to get his share of the loot. For those who know him well or any that are willing to attempt a sense motive 15, this is highly uncharacteristic of him and is a minor cause for concern.

Melifan rights himself as he slides his weapon slowly back into it's sheath, the humming whine now sounding as more of a mournful dirge.

It is time we go. There is nothing else to be done here.

He watches the others a moment as the gravity of their crushing defeat settles into their very beings. Melifan seethed at the thought of his old friend being paraded before them like a stringless marionette. His fought to master his emotions using his training as a focal point to calm is rage. He turned and began to exit the room his fists clenching and unclenching as he walked. When he arrived at the doorway though, his temper boiled over and he punched out at the wall with all his strength with a dull thud at the hard surface.

*CRACK*: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 of Non-lethal damage to himself. He shouldn't be punching walls after all.

Melifan grits his teeth as the searing pain shoots through his knuckle and up his arm, but the pain helped focus his mind. He took a deep and slow breath. He felt Garroth's loss as keenly as anyone in the room. Under his breath, he made a soft vow more to himself than anyone else as he slipped through the door and out of the room.

This is not over you filthy b!#@h. You want wrath? I will bring you so much wrath your gonna choke on it.

^_^

Seeing for the most part that everyone else was in agreement, Melifan begins to back toward the exit cautiously and carefully to give the others the sign that the retreat starts now, before the wicked beasties decide they are hungry after all.

close. it should look like this
spoiler=GM
with the [] around it.

If you place a =GM right after the word spoiler in the brackets, instead of reading Spoiler: it will read GM:. Jus some helpful tips the help you out. ^_^

Melifan examines the seen with the scrutiny of a survivor. He clenches his teeth hard and looks around at his allies making sure to keep his enemies within the reflection of his weapon and watching for any movements. He then begins to circle the enemies slowly, though trying not to make any threatening movements. Moving near Zindelo he whispers to him.

Zin. This looks bad. I think it is time we fell back and... Reevaluated... We are no use to anyone dead. And by the look of these beasties, we are surely going to be that. But how do we convey that to our hot tempered friends?

As he speaks his last words he gestures his chin at Hegin, then the hilt of his weapon over toward the glaring Elrawien.

Melifan postures toward the three creatures and Garroth. He has known Amira long enough to understand she did not have a sense of humor. He rolls his shoulders, then drops into a low stance, extending his right arm toward Garroth and letting this blade rest lightly along his arm and over his shoulder. The ancient polished blade holds the reflection of the three creatures in its finish as Melifan himself stares intently at the "un"Garroth.

Initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

EDIT: I have an inkling that this is gonna be a tough fight, so these rolls need to get better soon or I don't think Melifan will make it to the next fight. lol.

Shifting himself away from the strangled, Melifan sidles over to the now "unhanded" caster (into flanking if there is an open position, otherwise, next to Zindelo) And attempts yet another strike.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 +2 if I am able to flank.
If hits: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Elrawien, do you mind placing your out of character dialog in the ooc tags. I find it difficult at first glance to distinguish when your char is acting and speaking or you are. I would appreciate it. ^_^

Paizo is upset at us. lol

Mooks. During the bar brawl. And even then, I think I only hit once before it was turned cinimatic.

Hehe. I hit like a mosquito in comparison. I need a few more levels before I can even come close to competing with his dmg output. Speaking of which, what level can we expect this game to take us?

Melifan sees the savage strike from Hegin and attempts to capitalize on the brutal attack, bolting over to the one indicated by Elrawien and attempting to interrupt the casting.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

EDIT: Charging if avaliable.

Also, I should be acting before the two casters so should I post my action or did I come in after the surprise?

EDIT: NM, I just read previous posts and I did come in after surprise. ^_^

I am wondering about placement. Who is standing next to whom and do any of us get AoOs on the caster if Hegin or myself are standing next to the caster.

What are you talking about... It was a... Distraction tactic. Yagh, that's it. ^_^

Init: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
Stealth: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (1) + 0 = 1

Melifan finally makes it into the room with the rest in a clatter nearly falling flat on his face. He catches himself though as he is greeted with Hegin's rallying war cry, the booming of the door crashing open and a flurry of movement from his comrades. Melifan draws and darts forward trying to take out the one most hurt.

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
If Hit: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

hey everyone, I am back and I will be trying to post more regularly. I will be catching up over the next day and posting tomorrow night. Sorry for the long delay.

sorry for the current absence everyone. I have some RL stuff I am dealing with and I will try to be back on as soon as i can, but I may be out for a few days. Please feel free to DMPC my char and I'll be back ASAP.

Melifan bites back a retort at Elrawien as the venom of contempt fills his mouth.

Keep your head Mel. Losing your cool will only make things worst.

Melifan crosses his arms and gazes out the window as he leans on the wall while the others begin to bustle about.

I'll keep the watch. Just make it quick. This place is starting to really get to me.

I th...

Melifan breaks off suddenly as a questioning expressing overtakes his features. He then leans over to Zindelo and whispers.

Whats a water rod?

Melifan raps Hegin on the shoulder and gestures back up the stairs. Another magic circle. He was getting sick and tired of these things popping up everywhere. He moved back up to catch the end of the conversation and heard the sound of the approaching guard. A quick scan around appraised him of how bad the situation had really gotten. He shakes his head a bit at the carnage with a sigh. He glances over his shoulder to check on Hegin before moving to the shattered window behind Zindelo and Amira.

Sorry, I was waiting on any conformation of Hegin's perception check, unless i missed it. We were looking for a trap door of some kind. If none is found, Melifan will convince Hegin to go back up with him and regroup.

Melifan gets shunted to the side as Hegin, in his dwarven fashion, shoved his way in front. Melifan took on a defensive posture as he began to shadow Hegin.

I have a feeling there is a second trap door here somewhere. Otherwise I think we would have at least seen signs of a struggle. I highly doubt Garroth would have gone down without a fight.

With no patience for the idle banter, Melifan makes his way down the trap door in search of their alleged downed companion. Melifan takes particular care in his descent knowing that any that can take down Garroth would be formidable indeed. Not to mention this one is a caster and can be deadly from a distance. He would have to close the gap quickly if he wished to have any chance against the barkeeper. As the chatter in the main area faded, Melifan heard his inner voice more insistently, reminding him that this may be the stupidest idea he has had in a long time... Maybe ever.

*Bird Call*

Melifan quickly sheaths his weapon seeing the carnage wrought by Hegin and himself. Hegin's explanation seemed forward enough and did not feel further words were needed. Then the scream... Melifan's eyes dart around for their comrade his breath caught in his throat now. Melifan taps Hegin on the shoulder and gestures toward Elrawien, then darts toward where he last saw Garroth hoping that the wizards assessment of the situation was wrong.

:does a little dance:

2 more days?

Ooooh no... Mel is NOT gonna be Garroths replacement! ^_^

Agreed. I think that should be about enough time. 3 months is definitely enough time for a single post. Even a 1 word post saying Dead or Alive would do for me. :D

NEVER!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't gotten any word either way unfortunately. I hope the GM is doin alright as well.

And indeed, Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everything turns out okay for ya Tobaris.

Well then, Round 2 actions it is.

Seeing Hegin dispatch his first two poor saps, Melifan tumbles past his assailants into position back to back with the wild dwarf.

Hegin. Ya might wanna think 'bout NOT droppin the patrons dead.

Raising his weapon in a twisting, turning blur, Melifan disarms the opponents not wanting to shed more blood than has already been shed by Hegin's deadly weapon.

Mel rolls into an empty spot next to Hegin (Acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18) and attempts to relieve the nearest opponent (Disarm: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 or +7 if Weapon Finesse applies to disarm.) of his weapon.

1st or 2nd round actions?

NEVER! and im back.

Sorry all, Mother is in town and I will be out for another... 24 hours or so. GM, Please feel free to GMPC my char until my return to keep things moving. I will be checking back in regularly, but won't have the time to post. See you all soon!

Lol. Yeah, that's it. I am projecting. :)

Mine was full of baby.. See previous post. ^_^ My poor wife hurt her back so bad she can't get out of bed. So i am chasing the little one like a headless chicken. She just recently learned how to open cabinets and drawers and she is starting to figure out how to walk. Not quite there yet, but she is learning damn fast.

Melifan eyes the bar goers menacingly wanting to give Garroth time to sort out his little tiff with the barman. The tip of his weapon slowly sweeps around as he turns slowly to watch the others around them.

Sorry for the lack of posting. My wife sprained her back so I have been on 24 hour infant watch until she is better. That means a serious lack of posting devotion. I will post as often as I can though.

I think its supposed to be city, but yagh. To my knowledge it is.

That would be up to the DM but how understand it, It is meant to work against enemies.

With a long, slow draw of his weapon, the song drifts through the room in a haunting melody. The moment the blade's tip leaves the sheath, Melifan spins it in a single arch of speed and grace and stops it outstretched to his side as the song fades before speaking.

"No one move. I do not wish a fight."

5' step up onto the table (High Ground). Full round action: Dazzling Display (Intimidate +7 (+9 in combat) to Demoralize all in 30')
Intimidate: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29 vs Opponents DC (10+HD+Wisdom)

EDIT: Wow. That was a nice roll. Shaken lasts 1 round + 1 round for every 5 above the DC I hit.

That is definitely a good idea.

My daughter's is a few days before christmas. I'll be damned if people lump her b-day with christmas. She deserves 2 presents. :D

Happy birthday to the little guy. On Halloween too. He gets presents on the most awesome holiday ever, the lucky duck.
