[4E] "Curses" PbP ICC

[Evil Incarnate]

A resounding boom causes everyone in the accursed grove to take notice as Sturdy brings his massive maul down upon the plant-beast, crushing half its body, nearly sending it back down to the ground.

Sturdy: To answer your question, the Thorn-creature did push you into W-7; I did take the 6 dmg off for standing from prone; your devastating attack Hit! Severely Bloodying the plant-beast.

Without warning, the elven woman comes bursting out of a nearby tree, clawing frantically at Ottarr. Massive wounds cover his body as she shreds through him with her black, clawed hands.

Elven Woman:
Move Action: Teleport to S-10
Standard Action: Claw Attack on Ottarr, 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (7) + 14 = 21 vs AC, Hit!; Damage:1d8 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17 damage.

Total Damage
Ottarr Takes 17 damage.

Corrupt Area: The corrupt area surrounding the Tree of Life reeks of evil. The trees and other fauna within the corrupt area seem twisted, alien, or even dead, giving a stark contrast to the living forest surrounding it. Any characters within the area of corruption (any square within the darkened ground) will get a feeling of disorientation and suffer a -1 to attack rolls, and -1 to all defenses until the Tree of Life is restored.

Ottarr collapses to the ground.

Ottarr goes down from the impact of the electricity ball, while another thorn-creature unleashes another ball of electricity on Rin, hitting him as well with a thunderous blast.

MAP

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

In the blink of the eye Sturdy stands next to Rin, and Ordagg appears behind the large plant creature. Provoke OA from Elven Woman (if she attacks she takes 3 psychic) to Fey Switch to swap locations with Sturdy.
Ordagg spins and tries to land a blow with his hammer. Basic attack vs. Plant-Beast's AC (includes -1 for Corrupted Area): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 281d10 + 1d6 + 16 ⇒ (6) + (6) + 16 = 28 includes +5 damage from Ottar's Cunning Ferocity.

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

A quick check shows the +5 to damage was until the end of Ottar's last turn, so my damage should be 23.

[Evil Incarnate]

Ordagg appears in place of Sturdy and slams into the plant-beast with his warhammer, sending it to the ground for the last time!

Ordagg: The elven woman doesn't OA you, but your attack against the plant-beast Hit! The plant-beast is dead!

The thorn-creatures close in on the corrupt grove, attacking Rin and Ordagg with blasts of lightning; hitting them both, while the creature targeting Ordagg reels back in pain upon striking the crafty dwarf.

MAP

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Grimly aware that his last moments may be coming, Rin draws on his most potent powers and hopes that some god somewhere is looking in his direction.

"Fight this," he gasps, conjuring a phantom figure to attack the elven woman.

Phantom Assailant (Will). Effect: 5 ongoing psychic and target grants CA to allies (se both)
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
2d10 + 6 ⇒ (7, 4) + 6 = 17

"And you, deal with this." A ice-rimmed dagger flies towards the nearest thorn beast and Sturdy feels power pulse through him.

AP.
Magic Weapon (AC) v Thorn Beast 2. On hit, adjacent allies get +1 to attack and +2 to damage to end Rin's next turn.
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Clutching his wounds, he makes for the relative safety of the trees.

If he can get to R13, he will. If not, he'll stand firm.

Status: 1hp

Well, what do you know? Crit on the Magic Weapon. OK. Thorn beast takes and additional 1d6 ⇒ 3 damage. At least he's doing down in style.

[Evil Incarnate]

Rin's psychic attack staggers the elven woman, causing her to drop her guard as she fumbles around; her equilibrium thrown off. Turning towards the thorn-creature, Rin continues his assault, his ice dagger flying true and striking the creature, giving power to Sturdy. With that Rin rushes off into the thorn hedge, cutting his way thru.

Rin: Both attacks Hit!

Is sturdy still in the corruption area at P12?
Sturdy roars as the Plant Beast falls, drawing the ire of the elven woman. He then strides into the briar patch to place himself between the Thorn creatures and Rin
Minor Action - Wilding Strength, Until EOMNT, whenever Sturdy makes an attack roll or a damage roll with a weapon attack, roll a d6 and add it as a power bonus to the roll.

[Evil Incarnate]

Sturdy: Just a quick question on shifting to P-12; its difficult terrain (the white dots), could you still shift there? If not then pick a different area and target, and repost your "new" attack as well :) Oh and the area you're in is part of the corrupt area, it pretty much starts at the edge of the dirty-looking ground as opposed to the greener grass areas.

["Sturdy" Shodden Mahoen]

The Relentless Panther Attack Power allows Sturdy to shift his speed(6 squares) prior to making the attack. I don't have the books or DDI access at the moment, but I think you can shift through difficult terrain if you have the available movement.
So, no new attack roll:( I like to play it straight up anyways and it has a Miss Effect(see my edit in previous post)

Sturdy: No problem, I like to play it straight too, but sometimes, like when the dice falls unevenly, or things happen that may prevent an attack to come off, I'll give a "roll for the new attack" :)

Sturdy's attack misses, but the sheer power of his swing causes the thorn-creature to reel back from the frost eminating from his weapon. Meanwhile the elven woman, her ire drawn to Sturdy, runs up and savagely claws him, sending the goliath's blood everywhere.

In his square. Hopefully I can give him some cover while in a fragile state, and standing in an occupied square gives him a free shift (PHB 292).

Ah good, that's the part I was missing, I forgot about the free shift. I'll be updating the game in about an hour or so.

Ordagg heroically brings Ottarr back from the brink of death, and provides him with cover as the Thorn-creatures move in to finish him off, and instead hit Ottarr with lightning and claw attacks; while the creature 'cursed' by Ordagg reels back in pain in retaliation.

The thorn-creature and elven woman are slowed for only a moment by the cloud of ice, shaking off the thin layer of frost enveloping them.

Rin: The attack missed both of them.

Distracted by Rin's cloud of ice, Sturdy manages to smash both the thorn-creature and elven woman firmly into the ground, with the two giving a muffled grunt in return.

Sturdy: The attack hit! Thorn-Creature 2 is now Bloodied. Thanks for reminding me about V-2's save, but I did take off the 2 ongoing.

Thorn-Creature 2: Retro Save 1d20 ⇒ 18, Saved!

Still reeling from Sturdy's mighty attack, the elven woman is swallowed by the thornbushes around you, appearing directly behind Sturdy and would have delivered a devastating slash with her black claws...if she would have hit.

The fight is starting to wear on Sturdy's endurance

I'm bloodied again, and when did I get knocked prone? I stood up last turn.

Ottarr: You're not prone, just missed it when updating the status of the party, I'll fix it next update.

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Freezing Cloud (Fort) v Thorn beast 2. Effect -2 to attacks to end Rin's next turn. On hit does 4 cold damage.
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22

Astonished to still be alive, Rin sends another blast of chill air towards the bloodied Thorn beast attacking Sturdy.

[Evil Incarnate]

The Thorn-creature is completely engulfed in Rin's cloud of cold, covering the creature with a thick layer of frost, making it more difficult to move.

Rin: The attack hit!

Several spikes of earth explode out of the ground, sending clumps of dirt, grass, and thorns branches everywhere, but the Thorn-Creature manages to evade.

Sturdy: The attack missed.

Corrupt Area: The corrupt area surrounding the Tree of Life reeks of evil. The trees and other fauna within the corrupt area seem twisted, alien, or even dead, giving a stark contrast to the living forest surrounding it. Any characters within the area of corruption (any square within the darkened ground) will get a feeling of disorientation and suffer a -1 to attack rolls, and -1 to all defenses until the Tree of Life is restored.

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

I'm going away for the weekend and probably won't be able to post again until Sunday, so I'm posting now.

Ottar, I advise getting between Sturdy and Rin, because I'm moving.

Ordagg conjures infernal fire around V3 before moving away. Hellish Rebuke vs. V3's Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 152d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 2) + 9 = 16 fire damage, and if I take damage BEOMNT an additional 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11 fire damage.
Move to O8 and curse V1.

HP: 35/62
Temp HP: 0
Healing Surge Value: 15
Healing Surges Used: 0/11
Status: -1 attack/-1 defenses; cursed enemies take 3 psychic damage when attacking me; concealment

Ottarr move into the brush and curses the plants with bad luck.

Move to R12 and use Unluck on T3(vs Reflex, Necrotic damage and next attack by it uses 1d20 ⇒ 15 or what it rolls, whichever is lower, and next attack on it uses 1d20 ⇒ 16 or what they roll, whichever is higher.) 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 1 = 111d8 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Of course, doesn't do a damn thing on a miss.

[Rin Lyulfsson]

In good and bad news, I'm about to buy a new computer. This means no more frantic fan noise and abrupt crashing - I hope. It also means I may be offline for a while until I get everything reinstalled. Apologies if I vanish without warning and DMPC as needed.

[Evil Incarnate]

The creature remains indifferent at Ottarr's attempts to curse it, and continues undeterred.

Ottarr: The attack did miss.

The thorn creature engaged in melee with Sturdy claws frantically at him, but is unable to find an opening in the goliaths defenses.

Thorn-Creature 2:
Standard Action: Claw Attack on Sturdy, 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14 vs AC, Missed!

The thorn-creature targeted by Ordagg manages to jump through the fire that threatens to engulf it, and fires off a blast of lightning at Sturdy, catching him in the shoulders with the electric blast. Then the remaining thorn-creature moves in to finish off the warden, clawing at him in a frenzied assault, drawing blood.

Ordagg: Your attack missed.

Thorn-Creature 1:
Standard Action: Shocking Orb on Sturdy, 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29 vs AC, Hit!; Damage:1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Lightning damage.
Move Action: Move to L-3

Thorn-Creature 3:
Move Action: Move to Q-9
Standard Action: Claw Attack on Sturdy, 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (16) + 14 = 30 vs AC, Hit!; Damage:1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 damage.

Total Damage
Sturdy: Takes 13 damage (5 Lightning, 8 regular)

Corrupt Area: The corrupt area surrounding the Tree of Life reeks of evil. The trees and other fauna within the corrupt area seem twisted, alien, or even dead, giving a stark contrast to the living forest surrounding it. Any characters within the area of corruption (any square within the darkened ground) will get a feeling of disorientation and suffer a -1 to attack rolls, and -1 to all defenses until the Tree of Life is restored.

Back-ish. Still can't find the stuff for my own games on the so-called shared drive, but I can play my pcs.

Rin stays put and hurls more chill at the thorn creature threatening Sturdy.

Chilling Cloud (Fort). On hit 4 damage. Effect, -2 to attacks to end Rin's next turn.
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

[Evil Incarnate]

Rin: Which one did you want to target, V-2 or V3?

[Rin Lyulfsson]

V2 - apologies.

Still hanging in on 1hp :)

[Evil Incarnate]

Rin's cloud of cold engulfs the thorn-creature, slowing his ability to attack and covering him with a layer of frost.

Rin: The attack hit, V-2 is -2 to attack till end of Rin's next turn.

Mark V2 and V3
Shift to Q10
I just realized we had an extended rest since the last encounter, so I have my AP.
Thorn Strike, 1d20+13-1+1=16 vs V2 AC, 2d6+9=17 cold damage and pull the target 1 square to P10.
Evil Incarnate - Can you let me know if that was a hit or miss, and then I'll complete the actions on my turn, thanks

Sturdy: That attack missed.

["Sturdy" Shodden Mahoen]

Minor Action - Stone's Endurance, Sturdy gains resist 5 to all damage until EOMNT.
Earth Spikes, 1d20+13-1+1=23 vs V3 AC, 2d6+9=17 cold damage and until EOMNT, the target's space and each square adjacent to it are filled with spikes. Any enemy that enters this spike-filled area or starts its turn there takes 5 damage.

Sturdy's maul grows into a thorny whip as he steps backwards. He swings at one thorn creature, missing. He then turns his attention to another thorn creature slamming his maul into the Earth trying to urge roots from the tree of life to attack the corrupt plant bodies.

The roots from the Tree of Life come sprouting forth from the ground, impailing the thorn-creature with dozens of long roots.

Sturdy: The attack hit, and the Thorn Creature is Bloodied!

Ottarr weaves another quick enchantment to focus the plant's attention on Sturdy while he stumbles through the brush.

Move to P15 and use Misdirected Mark on P2. (vs Reflex, marked by Sturdy until EOMNT): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 191d8 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
