Ungorallin pops his head into the makeshift shelter he has made for the group.
"Looks like I missed all the fun, he he. We should be safe here, as long as you guys don't do anything...noisy." His gaze strays to Shaya for some reason, but then he says, "I will guard the rear, to make sure we aren't snuck up on."
He then turns to leave, finding a good vantage point of the west gates.
Shaya's face grows grim at this news and she glances to her brothers before her smile returns,
"Well, we'll just have to see about getting your town a few new trophies then?" She grins trying to bolster Ella's attitude.
Before he leaves to keep an eye on the village gate, he asks Ella, "Know how many of them are currently in the village now??"
"We will liberate your village and put an end to Pharus's tyranny!" Says Zarrosh with a fierce determination. "But we can't do it without your help. What we lack right now is information, especially on the dragon Pharus..."
- Is the stone structure he emerged from his lair?
- How often does he come out?
- What does he do when he's out?
- Any idea what he does inside?
- We have seen both oni & ogres, but where are the giants?
After binding the ogre prisoner then slapping him awake, Zarrosh speaks in draconic-accented Giant, "We can do this the easy way or the really painful way. Answer our questions!"
Intimidate:
- Is the barn basically the minions' makeshift barrack?
- What are the disposition of the minions (ie. how many patrols outside, inside, and sits in the barn) during the day? Night?
- We have seen both oni & ogres, but where are the giants?
I think the giants were the ones we already met. That means we have only 3 onis, 8 ogres and the dragon left.
Approaching the Ogre, Heresuge quits his amiable demaenour and turns as cold as ice. When he places a hand on the bound Ogre, it starts freezing his clothes
"You heard my compagnon, speak or you will discover what freezing means"
Heresuge will assist the intimidation on the Ogres.
Shaya smiles reassuringly to Ella,
"You just relax with your little one."
"Okay, we need to figure out some things." She says turning to her 'companions'. "What sort of bit can we use to get the Oni away from their Boss?' She muses, "If we cut down on those smart, magical nasties the White should be a much easier thing to tackle." She looks around,
"Ideas? Suggestions?"
"If Pharus flies off, we can ambush the Oni. Once we kill them, the ogres won't give us much of a problem. We can even set up an ambush for Pharus when he comes back. The problem is, we don't know when Pharus will leave. Perhaps we can orchestrate his exit?" Muses Zarrosh.
"Ogre, what is your name? Do you know how giants & oni correspond with Pharus? Maybe we can trick him into leaving the village?"
Ungorralin is keeping a sharp eye on the west gate, and will let the rest of the group know if there is any activity.
I'll wait for 30 minutes, then return to the group.
"I think they may send a searching party soon. We should get ready for that. If it's ogres, let's just fight with weapons and fists to conserve our strength. If it's Oni, we need to concentrate on them one per one and remember they are only killed by fire or acid and they regenerate. If it's the dragon, wwe should use fire as much as possible and for some of you, I will cast a few protection from energy(cold).
Shaya nods at Herensuge's words, though she also frowns a little.
"I think a broader attack base than just fire. This White is smart enough to have underlings, it will be smart enough to know its own weaknesses and take measures to protect itself from the obvious." She grins happily,
"Loos like in the ranged attacks I have the advantage." There's a slightly proud/smirk-y tone to her voice.
Aurion says "i would really appreciate any protection from cold you could offer! I dont like the cold!!"
5mins more pass
can pcs tell me where they are using co-ordinates on the newer battle map
Herensuge will be on A31.
Ungorallin watches the monsters leave and quietly thinks, Here comes the welcoming committee.
stealth:
OOC: Great, maybe I shouldn't stand that far into the front...
stealth
stealth
"Nyrsildur can you distract them somehow?" he whisper to his tiny dragon familiar
---
Nyrsildur flies off, using greater invisibility on himself.
He becomes visible in front of them "Oh my, never have I laid my eyes upon such ugly beast as yourself" he says and quickly flies away from them, in the opposite direction of the party, becoming invisible as he flies behind a tree.
---
Zarrosh holds his breath, intense for the fight to come...
Ungorralin waits for the group to pass, then silently sneaks out following the, awaiting for the righht time to strike.
Ungorralin will stay in humanoid form for now, and he will take a stealth move to try to sneak up on the ogres. He won't attack until the rest of the group engages them in melee, then he will aim for flanks whenever possible.
When you say disappear, has he cast a spell ? If so spellcraft to find out what spell he used.
it looks like that no-one will attack until the ogre and oni are 80ft (charge range)away from the party
at 100ft away
the Oni seems to see something (looking at zarrosh's direction!)
he yells danger and disappearssuprise has been ruined so we will go to iniative (i will send a battle map)
Nyrsildur tried to create a diversion and get them to follow him into the woods. Didn't they react to that?
Gharzarana cast web in the area he last saw all three of them
OOC: I think Shaya said, a few post up, to DMPC her?
OOC: I think Shaya said, a few post up, to DMPC her?
Herensuge cast invisibility purge. Within 40 foot of him, all invisibility is negated for the next 8 minutes. So that would make the Oni visible.
Ungorralin will stay in humanoid form for now, and he will take a stealth move to try to sneak up on the ogres. He won't attack until the rest of the group engages them in melee, then he will aim for flanks whenever possible.
Ungorallin starts to move towards the group...
With a roar Zarrosh charges out of the tree line, his golden mane billowing in the wind as he closes in on the suddenly visible Oni. He tightens muscles and brings his great sword down at the monster before it has a chance to react.
Atk & dmg:
Nyrsildur cast sleep on the group, while Gharz starts chanting casting protection from evil on Aurion
Ungorallin, seeing the ogre running to the village for help, alter his course and breaks into a run to intercept the ogre.
