Round 4
His brilliant strategic maneuvers now positioning him far out of the fight. He considers quaffing a potion to fly at the foe, but seeing Zeke ahead he decides not to delay. The now shieldless knight
"Foul fiend! I challenge thee to meet my sword!"
Round 3
Hit hard on his retreat, but not as hard as the amphibian, the knight curses the ape as steps over and lets loose with his adamantine arrows.
Two Crit threats.
Just a heads up, lots of weird Cavalier stuff going in my post that effect others. Throgg!!'s previous attacks (normal, confirm, blessing) have some bonuses from Werner: - Throgg!!, in case it wasn't added to your rolls on the board, the attack rolls you just made should also get a +4 circumstance bonus as Werner was threatening when you made them (Order of Dragon - Cavalier's challenge) - DM_Ruthzak, golem should also get a -2 penalty to AC against attacks Throgg!! just made (12th level Cavalier Demanding Challenge). Werner just granted immediate move actions to Zeke & Zeki (if wanted) Throgg!! gets a +2 morale bonus on any attacks during the next 1 round
Hearing the Comte, Werner considers withdrawing and firing his adamantine arrows against he creature. As a Dragon Knight, he should not leave his comrade in danger, but seeing the stone ancestors ineffective and unsure of Throgg!!'s damage, the Comte's warning convinces him to regroup. He issues his grand advice to his comrades. - "Throgg!! hit him hard!" - "Comte, Zeke and I will move to advantageous ground!" - "Barracho, you are already mighty enough!" Werner uses his grand knightly strategy to move to "higher ground" while sheathing his sword. When he arrives at his new, strategic position, he draws his bow and knocks an adamantine arrows.
Round 1
Werner glances at the arms grabbing at his friends. He considers wading into assist, the the solid hit on his frame impels him in the other direction. He looks contemptuously at the charging foe, shrugging off the hurt.
The knight steps forward and swings against the foe.
Waiting works for me.
Once the door is open, Werner pulls his sword and advances, peering ahead with determination, only a little spooked by the foul beasties fallen behind them and the missing comfort of his saddle underneath him.
Stepping carefully over the tripwire, Werner advances cautiously and tries to open the door.
After being healed by Zeke, Werner flexes his sword.
"The Compte has my greatest confidence, as one does not get to be a Compte without it! However, Barracho has cleverly discovered a hidden entrance. Zeke, I, of course will follow your lead." Now that you are healed. "You're wise enough to take me through stone, to pull me from a drowning sarcophagus, I'm sure you're wise enough to decide." If I had my saddle with me, there would be no question!
Satisfied that Zeke is looking much better, Werner nods at the Compte. "We're not mad, just eager! Look how the carnage trembles before the mighty Barracho!"
Watching the Mighty Borracho step past the tripwire, Werner seizes Zeke's shoulders , preventing the dwarf from moving forward. "You're not going anywhere until we get you a bit more healthy." I lost my horse, so I can't lose a liege, too. That would be almost as bad. At least I saved the saddle. He hands Zeke a potion of Cure Moderate Wounds.
After pocketing the two new potions proffered by the Compte, Werner now has a nice jingling of similar vials. Unhappy with the discussion about the spear-wielding statue, Werner retrieves and potion and quaffs it.
"Zeke! Perhaps you should let my shield in front of you." As you look more battered than the valiant frog! "And perhaps dust yourself off a bit." Werner will try to position himself between Zeke and the pointy end of the statute's weapon.
And PaizoCon is done eating our time (and hopefully done eating our brains as well)....
Concerned about his patron and his froggy conpanion, Werener is relieved when the healing energies flow through.
Feeling only partially rejuvenated, he grumbles his assent. "Perhaps the Compte is correct.". Of course he's correct, he's a Count! He tugs at the stirrups hanging from his pack. If I were ahorsed I'd show them a thing or two!. "I knew I should have brought my saddle!"
Werner is gratified that all his companions survived the heinous assault of the brutes. He needs, helt, lots of it (down 132 hit points), just passing the Throgg!! drain (126 hit points?), and not quite as deadly as Zeke's 88+ sized hole is. Is the 3d8+11 and 2d8+10 once for one character in the party, or once for each character. And how many of the d8+1 are available... In any case we'll will blow through the top touches fairly quickly and still be hungry.

The knightly dwarfsquire, normally so steady on his feet, staggers a bit under the ape blows, thankful for the frogman's assistance in putting them in their place. Trying to keep an eye out for anything incoming, he finishes pouring the potion into the Dwarf, hoping it's not too late.
Groaning at seeing the Dwarf still unconscious without any apparent enemies immediately upon them, he retrieves another potion. "Come, good companion, it is not yet time to give up the fight!" Of course, it's never time to give up the fight when one's noble and true comrades are at risk!

Seeing his bossdwarf drop, Werner growls and steps over Zeke's prostrate form. He drops his sword and with his free hand retrieves a potion, beginning to pour it down Zeke's throat.

The evil one tries to cloud Werner's mind...
Seeing Zeke so incredibly bloodied, the noble squire flurries his sword against the little beast between him, Zeke and the four-armed Gorillon. "Zeke! Get out of here!"
Round 2
If anything attacks Zeke when they emerge from the glide, Werner will try to use his Saving Shield against the biggest, nastiest thing that attacks Zeke.

"You shall not hold my friends!"
Having evading the tentacles when they attacked, Werner steps back and sheathes his sword, before retrieving his Potion of Fly from his belt.
Seeing so many companions take to the air, Werner makes sure his own Potion of Fly is sheathed securely in a belt pouch. As the sturdy frog-man takes the lead, the Cavalier keeps his eye on him. It's good that this strong, new companion takes it on himself to scout for the others. Still, I must be ready to assist when available. He keeps an eye on his newest companion who forges ahead, ready to spring forward if necessary.
Zeki's conjuration restores Werner to an "As right as rain," condition or at least to as right as Werner gets. He'll spend his time polishing his sword and buffing his shield, proud in the power of his companions and re-dedicating his honor to protecting them.

As Barracho flies into the chamber, Werner surges forward to make sure his shield isn't too far from the mighty one. He spots the new "plug" blocking the way and considers. "Perhaps with the right dedication, we could move it without magic. Throgg!! is stronger than I. Perhaps I could assist him in trying to move it?" He'll approach the plug cautiously, looking at the 'edges that could be gripped,' wondering if anybody short of a giant could shift it with just a stout heart.
Upon hearing the Compte's suggestion that Zeke use his uber-Dwarven powers to alter the passage, he keeps an eye on the stone plug, looking for threats or in case they'll need to try and shift anything with simple muscle.

Just as he gets his arrow knocked, he sees the savages flee.
Switching his arms to sword and shield, Werner will approach the entrance, ready to back up the Compte.

"Get your hands off of the Compte, you honorless scoundrel! Pick on someone your own size! Like me!" At least the cavalier's ego is as big as an ogre….
Werner charges the challenged Ogre holding Zeki.
"Whenever you're calling forth a blessing with stone or minerals, count me as willing." Even eager. There was a reason he decided to follow this dwarf. Always trust a companion who can retrieve you from a stone vault sunk deep underwater.
"Of course, I shall be ready with sword and shield to rid this vault of the infestation, to return the city to its true deserved glory. The nation, our Compte, and you, true companions, require no less." "I'm most effective mounted, but I don't think this is exactly a jousting field." Although the need for action and the time for me to locate and train a proper mount is not likely available, in any case. Alas, such is the life of a knight in the deepest, darkest Mwangi jungle. If only jungle horses were as common as gorillas... "As a follower of the Draconic Code of Knighthood, my place is between these infiltrators and my stout companions. Else my armor, sword, shield, and dedicated honor are best what I can contribute." He looks at Throgg!!! "Of course, when I'm engaging a foe with a companion by my side, it's my honor to aid my allies, usually with shield or insight." |
