"Fear me giants, for I am your destruction!"

Round 1: With 30' movement, Pierre moves diagonally SE then, S, then SW diagonal, and then S, and S for his 30' of movement. This should put in within 30' Pierre looks down at the blood-stained blade of his sword, smiles deviously, and looks back up at the giants, as he swings it around his back in a display of martial prowess, ”Time to join your brothers, whom I left lying in their own guts at the SE bridge…I personally disemboweled the lot of them! I must say I am going to enjoy killing you all!” The determination in the cavalier’s eyes is grim, serious, and quite scary!
Demoralize: You can use this skill to cause an opponent to become shaken for a number of rounds. This shaken condition doesn’t stack with other shaken conditions to make an affected creature frightened. The DC of this check is equal to 10 + the target’s Hit Dice + the target’s Wisdom modifier.
Success: If you are successful, the target is shaken for one round. This duration increases by 1 round for every 5 by which you beat the DC. You can only threaten an opponent this way if it is within 30 feet and can clearly see and hear you. Using demoralize on the same creature only extends the duration; it does not create a stronger fear condition.
Pierre smiles once he is mounted on his black mare. He trots through town at the dwarves' pace. When a flying Aradesh approaches, he raises an eyebrow. "Kind words, but don't be shocked, my dear. You just don't know what you don't know. My skill is clear, you will continue to be impressed." He flashes you a 16 Charisma megawatt grin. "Your magic is potent and much appreciated. I will definitely be rushing in." When we get close, Pierre dismounts and approaches on foot with the team, but keeping Francois close. When he sees the sadistic giants harming the townsfolk, he grips his sword tightly. "Time to disembowel these bastards!"
Pierre rushes across the bridge toward the stables. "Going to get Francois!" When he reaches the stables, he rushes inside, greets the owner, who is probably hiding for his life, during the siege, and looks for his friend and rides him through the doors and into the streets of Sandpoint, following the party and the flying gnome. :)
Pierre smiles and winks at Dolgrym, "Thank you for weakening the giant for me with that crazy charge, so I could land the finishing blow." He sees Aradesh fly up and looks around. "I need Francois, if I'm going to go up against a dragon, as he's got my banner. He should be in the Goblin Squash stables, next to the Rusty Dragon."
Pierre looks around, as Aradesh's words snap him out of his reverie. "Oh, right. Be right back." The cavalier rushes at the remaining giant and stabs in the thigh with his sword.
Pierre bows with a smile, "Where to next?"
That is a sweet hammer throw, Thor, I mean Hanna! Players, know Pierre is an exaggeration of his Order, think Gaston at 10th level from B&B! It is fun though when you talk so much smack and can back it up!
Round 3: As the he dodges the giant's last blow, Pierre moves closer and feels inspired by Sivi's song. He yells out, "Great voice, dear!", as he pierces the giant's thigh with his sword repeatedly!
If the giant dies, Pierre will bow and soak in the adulation.
As the giant falls, Pierre mockingly calls out, "Timberrrr!"
When the other giant rushes in, Pierre sees the blow coming very close and about to hit him and he winks at the giant, "I don't think so!" When the dragon appears in the distance, Pierre narrows his eyes..that dragon horn would make a great trophy!
Round 2: Pierre laughs at the giant's pathetic attempts to hit him, "You couldn't hit the side of a barn with those swings, let alone me. My turn, big fella. Let me show you the skill and grace of a true warrior."
Round 2:
Pierre sees the carnage wreaked by the giants. Oh, they were going to pay for what they did. He looks at the dwarves and speeds to the south. "Bless you Sivi for your spell! These giants are mine!" He looks back at the dwarves with a hearty laugh, "Don't be late to the party slowpokes!" Round 1:
Pierre leaps to his feet at the scream with an excited smile, "Hot damn, they're here! Time to see me in action, boys and girls!" He looks to see if anyone is casting any buffs to wait for them and then springs to the door, heading south. He expertly draws his longsword as he maneuvers past the two dwarves standing at the door, "Excuse me, excuse me, the action awaits!"
Pierre orders food from the Rusty Dragon's staff, flirts with some waitresses, and plays some cards, with the party, if they're interested, until it is time to rest up. He goes up to his room and sleeps in his armor, as you can never be caught unprepared.
Pierre gathers around the map when instructed. His eyes widen at the gnome's knowledge. "Impressive, Sivi." He smiles at the bard...too bad she's a gnome. Shaking off those lascivious thoughts, "My mount Francois and I will be ready to ride in the morning. Well I'm famished, my dear Ameiko, where can I order some grub?"
"Sound strategy to take out the leaders. I'm in. Do we get half now, half when the job is done? It would be wise to purchase some healing supplies, if possible. Probably best to head out tomorrow also, after learning of the latest intel. Messages by pigeon carrier....quite ingenious."
Pierre bursts out laughing at Dolgrym's comment. "Touché, my friend." He then raises his hand and apologizes to the town leaders for his outburst.
Pierre stands and bows to both dwarves."Welcome to the party!" At Hanna's first comment, Pierre squints his eyebrows, "Aldori? No way, those are pansy duelists. I fight for glory and to survive on the battlefield." Seconds later, he looks dumbfounded at Hanna's comments as he does not speak Dwarven. He looks at Dolgrym, "Definitely like you better...You're quieter." He smiles and sits back down.
Pierre bows at the half-orc lady's comments. "So I may enlighten you, my dear. A credential is a qualification, achievement, personal quality, or aspect of a person's background, typically when used to indicate that they are suitable for something. I have many such achievements that I am sure the Fair Lady Ameiko is aware of, and some of them are even on the battlefield." Pierre chuckles and smugly arches his eyebrows at his last comment. "As for these giants, I have yet to be smashed to paste, as I am standing right here in front of you, garbed exquisitely, if I may say so. But my point is that combat is not about who is the strongest or the toughest. I am sure these good dwarves may disagree, but in my opinion, it is about who is the quickest and the fastest. So I am sure I am much quicker than some lumbering giant so they will be falling to my blade, as others have in the past. You will see and you will be amazed." Pierre playfully winks at her.
No worries, Aradesh, about the DV. I bought 2 ioun torch stones for a reason. Cheap and effective.
Pierre grinned. People always underestimated his lack of muscles and his lithe frame....until it was too late. He looked around the room at the three town leaders and the dwarven female entering behind him. "Remember, it's not bragging, if it's true." He flashed all, including the dwarf, his cocky smile. He arched his eyebrows and winked at Ameiko, as he saw her blade. He made sure she saw the pommel of his longsword sitting at his side, the only weapon visible on him. "Darling, I'm ready to dance when you are...but maybe, we should hold off till the giants are dealt with." Pierre moved to the side near one of tables with a seat. When asked his name, he cleared his throat and spoke with eloquence, "Sir Pierre Chauffre, Knight of the First Order of the Blue Cockatrice, based in Absalom, at your service. My credentials are impeccable. Right, Lady Ameiko?" When she nods, he moves his cloak to the side and sits, waiting to see the other so-called heroes, while admiring Ameiko's slender frame.
Pierre was escorting the noble's daughter to dinner at an inn in Korvosa, when he caught out of the corner of his eye the writ nailed to the side of the wall. He immediately recognized the sigil and requested that his date forgive him for a second, while he checked it out. He saw many persons passing by the writ, looking and laughing. He read it and was intrigued. Hmmm...giants on the move! To be honest, he had not fought many in his career. He could picture in his head the portrait of him standing over the corpse of a giant, while clad in his noble garb. He smiled, nothing could top that. He looked over at the the noble's daughter and her cleavage-revealing gown. No, nothing really could top his glory, not even that. He apologized to his companion for ditching her, whistled for Francois, and mounted his horse. He tipped his cap to his date, who was screaming profanities at him, while he galloped away. He could barely hide his smile. That was a few days ago. Now, as he approached Sandpoint, Pierre waited with anxiousness to hear the details of the mission. He was also curious as to who else would volunteer the help the town. He stood up straight on his horse, as Francois rode through the town's southern gate. To be honest, Pierre looked regal and quite handsome, as he entered the town with his Order's banner, the Blue Cockatrice, waving proudly. He saw the townsfolk and smiled, trying to comfort the scared masses. He even winked at some curvaceous ladies as he passed by. He was already thinking on how the town would compensate him after he saved them. Pierre snapped himself out of his thoughts as he reached the Rusty Dragon. He dismounted and gave his horse to a nearby stable boy. "Keep Francois close." He looked at the modest inn and shrugged. He definitely was not in Absalom anymore. He sighed, straightened his noble garb, and walked in. Time to be a hero. He walks in and proudly bows, proclaiming loudly, "Never fear, your savior is here!" He stands upright, showing off his trademark smile, brown locks, and green eyes.
Haste and Darkvision (if we go into some dark cave), if possible, would be my preferences.
Yeah, Sivi, was logical with his grace and noble family, that he would dabble in the arts and dancing made most sense. I auto-make your DC with my +15 skill. Your Masterpiece will come in handy.
Thanks for the selection, GM! Hello all, I hope you can see deep deep into Pierre's heart for he is a good soul despite all his boasting. :) |
