Parnel Grunt's page

Parnell mumbles a few words, and sprinkles something into the air, then drops to one knee awaiting the approach of the animals.

Casts Enhanced Diplomacy.

Wild Empathy 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Umm Hmm.

Parnell will exchange his part of the treasure for a 300 gp gem (Easier to carry), and the rest in coin. Nothing really to purchase at this time, except for some rat on a stick for Hector.

Parnell would love to be wiser...I'll add it if no objections.

Parnel and Hector wait patiently for the answer.

"Just die already".

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15 Sling attack
1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 Damage

Parnell keeps swinging and slinging.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16 Sling
1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6 Bullet

Parnel drops another stone and whirls it at the more damaged opponent.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22 Sling

1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 Stone

Parnel quickly drops a bullet into his hand and slings towards one of the warriors.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 Sling PBS

1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 bullet, PBS

Parnel and Hector stand ready to move on.

Sorry I'm not contributing more. Dungeons are not Parnell's forte at this time. I'm sure there will be challenges more up to his skills.

Parnell gathers up the crossbows used by the skeletons. "These will be worth something I"m sure". He has Hector keep an eye on the inquisition in case he's needed.

"Well". "Allrighty then".

Parnel steps forward and swings his Quarterstaff

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 Attack

1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 Damage

Parnell stands quarterstaff in ready position.

"Well are we going to crush them"?

"Sure why not". Parnell begins to poke about the office area, trying to determine if the mold smell is dangerous.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 Knowledge Nature

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22 Perception

Parnell and Hector walk about the room, nose wrinkling at the smell, looking for anything else interesting.

1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14 Perception

Parnel draws back for another blow, but instead shields his eyes from splattering zombie juice with his scimitar arm.

"Yuck"!

I'm not sure looking at the map where the other zombie is...has it been moved???, so I'll just say Parnell is moving and attacking. If they're all gone then he'll move towards the dying necromancer.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18 Scimitar Attack

1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 slashing damage

Parnel encouraged by the chunks of rotting flesh cleaved off by his last swings, slashes away again.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 Scimitar Flanking
1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 Damage

And realizes that he has his scimitar turned with the back of the blade slashing instead of the front. If that had hit him, it would have hurt. I really put some umph behind that one.

Gagging a bit at the overwhelming odor of the rotting flesh, Parnel slashes at the beast again. "Do not bite that Hector". "It is rotten".

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 Scimitar Attack

1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6 Damage

I think Parnell just went. He just changed his post to not being sickened.

Thanks, My bad. The location of the post just confused me a bit. Thought I was in the cloud somehow.

Parnel grunts in frustration as his blade once again fails to find a target.

Parnell steps up and slashes at one of the abominations with his scimitar.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6 Attack

Stumbling on the last step as he moves up.

Parnell also takes 10 for a total of 12, then having tied of Hector drags him up as well.

Parnell also waits patiently with Harold. Playing fetch with Hector.

Parnell stands up and stretches, glad to be on the move again.

Parnell agrees that store credit is fine, and begins to shop.

Sounds good to me. If it were a natural animal Parnel might protest, but he is glad to get the un-natural beast out of his way.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 Handle Animal

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 Wild Empathy

Parnel looks thoughtful for a moment. "I really don't care either way". "It is an abomination, but if it can be put to some use, then I guess we don't have to kill it right away". "Perhaps I could do some training of it, and we could make sure we find the right buyer, so it won't be used to promote evil, or harm innocents".

Sorry. My dot disappeared for some reason.

In the surprise round, Parnel casts Shilelagh on his Qstaff.

In the first round he takes a 5' diagonal step, and swings at the creature.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 Q-Staff Strike

2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 3) + 2 = 7 Damage

"They are not natural". "In fact they are abominations of nature, and should be destroyed". "Hector...get ready".

1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19 Perception

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 Knowledge: Nature

"Wait". "I don't hear anything, but if it is indeed an animal, let me try". "I have a way with creatures of the wild". Parnell begins to move forward, signaling Hector to stay.

"Be ready". "Wild animals can be unpredictable particularly if hurt". "I may need assistance in a hurry".

Hi Everybody. At a trade show till Friday, so posting might be spotty. DMPC Parnel as required.

Parnel was really designed as an offensive Druid, but I'm good with carrying the wand. Either way is good with him. Probably won't memorize Curative spells this early in his adventuring life if that makes a difference.

Parnell will chip in

I'm good with keeping the items that help out the party, and selling what nobody wants. Not to concerned with even distribution...just do what's best for survival of of the party.

"Wait up a bit Elvar". "I'll help you out". Parnel lowers a rope over the side and begins to descend.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10 Climb.

Parnel tosses another magic rock at the beast.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 Magic Stone

1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 Magic Stone

Parnel moves forward, and slings one of his magic stones at the beast.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12 Magic Stone + PBS

1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 Magic Stone + PBS

Sorry, I meant to say Hector, not Harold, but it's too late to edit :-)

"Stay back Harold". This is not your battle".
Parnell casts Magic Stone, and moves into throwing range.

I thought Parnel was making full speed for the surface. At this time he has no idea that he is not being followed. When he gets to the surface and finds himself alone, he will dive back down quickly and try to see if he can help...but will not commit suicide :-)

Wow. Sorry Talia...I kind of expected Talia to follow Parnell in beating tracks... I don't know what it is, but it's undead of some sort to be living under there without air.

Parnell's eyes widen as he urgently tugs on his line twice and starts swimming at full speed towards the opening. He pulls on Talia's line as well if she's withing arm's reach.

Full retreat

1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 Perception

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22 Heal

@Parnel: handle animal I take it?

** spoiler omitted **

Sorry that was a Heal check

Parnel pauses in putting back on his armor, at Talia's words. "Hmmm". "I hadn't thought of that". "Tie the rope back on". "I'm going back and bring a few of those bones back to inspect more closely".

Parnell approaches Hector and notices his limp now that he is on dry land. "Are you going to be OK buddy". "That thing gave you a nasty twist...but you gave better than you got". Parnell then gives the lizard a hunk of smelly meat for his work.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 To inspect, and comfort Hector's wound.

"Hector...no", Parnell shouts in panic.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11 Shortspear

1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 Damage

Hector

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 Bite Attack

1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 Bite Damage

Parnell attempts to step around the beast to achieve flanking with Hector.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21 Shortspear (+2 more if flanking is achieved}
1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 Spear damage

Hector

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13 Bite Attack (+2 more if flanking is achieved}
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 Bite Damage

Parnell now seeing the enemy rushes forward stabbing with his spear.

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 Short Spear
1d61 ⇒ 45 Spear Damage

Man...I hope to hit double figures on a die roll soon!
