Background info now added to my profile

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

"Trolls! Filthy, filthy trolls!"
I inform the party of the DC 15 and 20 traits of trolls.

I guess I'll have started in Q22.
Ordagg says, "Well, I'm not sure if maybe there's something even bigger behind them, so I'll just get out of the way."
Move to S18, and ready to use Hellish Rebuke on anything that approaches me or any close by allies with hostility. 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 151d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

[Ouda La Ley]

Hey Shodden I was checking out your profile and noticed you didn't get your level 8,7,&6 Magic Items :) if I missed them in your profile please disreguard this post.

P.S. Please do not take offence I'm not tring to micro-manage your character, but I'd hate to see my friendly tank in anything less than +2 armor. :)

[Evil Incarnate]

Ordagg cautiously moves towards the rampaging monsters, chanting as he goes, preparing to unleash his spell upon any who draw too close.

Since Hellish Rebuke is range 10, I'll assume that will be the trigger for the spell.

Sorry, I should have been more specific, I'm going to wait until one is within 2 of me or an ally.

["Sturdy" Shodden Mahoen]

Sturdy holsters his hammer and pulls a long javelin from his back, raises it and pulls it back and lets it fly at the Large black beast in the middle.
Sturdy is not much for ranged attacks
Ranged Basic Attack(Javelin, Long-Range), 1d20+9-2=26 vs Reptile AC, 1d6+4=10 damage
Move action to M19

[Evil Incarnate]

Ordagg:Not a problem, I'll always try to err on the side of the PCs if I can help it. It'll change to 2 now.

"Sturdy" Shodden hefts his javelin as he bravely moves forward, as deer and foxes and rabbits run past, hurling the spear an incredible, impossible distance at the charging basilisk, striking true. The beast roars loudly at Sturdy, continuing towards him, it's eyes leaking a sickly green glow.

I've been adding in the CA that affects the Trolls and Basilisk, who are running.

[Ouda La Ley]

Ouda moves beside Sturdy N-19 places hunters quarry on the basilisk then readies a standard action when the basilisk reaches row 13 Ouda will charge with Marauder's Rush with +2 for CA and +1 for running attack that's 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17 vs AC 1d10 + 9 + 2d8 ⇒ (9) + 9 + (4, 2) = 24

oh jeez a 2? oh well at least the damage would have been nice

EDIT: Legend has it a Basilik Gaze can turn a man to stone Ouda charges with his eyes closed

The basilisk comes charging down the field, clearly angered by Sturdy's amazing throw. It stops halfway to the goliath, causing it to slide, tossing up chunks of dirt and grass. It then levels its sickly green glowing eyes at Sturdy, encompassing the area around him and Ouda in the same gasious glow.

The basilisk targets M-19 with a burst 1 area attack, effecting Ouda and Sturdy

Sturdy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11 (penalties for running) vs Fort; Resisted!!
Ouda: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30 (penalties for running) vs Fort; Damage: Critical!! 12 poison damage plus 5 ongoing poison/SE, as long as target is taking poison damage, adjacent targets take 2 poison dmg.

Sturdy manages to catch his breath and resist the poisonous gases that engulf the area, while Ouda sucks in his breath a bit too late, exceeding even the basilisk's expectations. The creature bellows in triumph and bares it's teeth, hinting at a forthcoming charge...

A 1 and a 20...who'd have thought...

[Ottarr Boddason]

"Remember Good King Heort, who did not wait for his enemies to come to him!", says Ottarr as he steps forward and places his enchantment on the basilisk.

Using Virtue of Cunning to shift Sturdy to L18, move to M21, then finally use Misdirected Mark on the basilisk:

I wrote:

Misdirected Mark on the first one in range.(vs Reflex, marked by Sturdy until EOMNT) 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30

I know it's kind of hard to see, but L18 is difficult terrain, unless you have something that allows you to do so. In the future, I'll try to make it more obvious for difficult terrain.

Inching a bit closer to the basilisk, Ottarr spurs Sturdy forward with his tales of glorious kings of old, releasing his enchantment upon the basilisk and invading it's mind, causing it to believe it's assailent is Sturdy, drawing more ire to the goliath warden.

Ottarr hits doing 14 dmg to the basilisk and causing it to be marked by Sturdy

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Move to R21.
Unleash Grasping Shadows (Will) on K11 catching the corner of the basilisk.
Effect: Shadows writhe in the designated area and continue until the end of your next turn. Any creature that enters the area of the grasping shadows takes 6 psychic damage (equal to your Intelligence modifier) and is slowed until the end of its next turn
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
Very much doubt that hits anything, but just in case - 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12 and the beastie takes 6 and is slowed to end Rin's next turn, regardless.

Rin makes a futile attempt to slow the basilisk down by planting an array of nebulous reaching shadows in its path.

"Do you like what you see?" he asks rhetorically.

"Do you like what you see?" he asks rhetorically.

Rin mutters incantations under his breath, making arcane gestures and tracing arcane symbols in the air, causing the area around the basilisk to warp and distort as the fabric of reality bends to Rin's will. Where there was grass, now exists an area of dark shadows, filled with countless shadows of differing shapes and sizes; grasping, clawing, and groaping at the beast...managing to slow down the beast.

Troll 2 runs to within 2 squares of Ordagg, triggering his readied action, but missing on a (17) vs Reflex, the troll makes an attack:
Ordagg: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11vs AC; Miss

The trolls come charging, maddened and enraged, hurtling thru the grasslands recklessly. One of the trolls bears down upon Ordagg, who boldly stands his ground and unleashes a burst of hellfire upon the troll, but just narrowly misses. The troll reaches high in the air with his long, gangly arms, but Ordagg manages to jump away easily as the trolls claws send chunks of grass and dirt everywhere.

Troll 1 runs at Sturdy and attacks with a charge:
Sturdy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 vs AC; Hit Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 4) + 6 = 14

Clawing its way across the field, the troll comes bounding over a fallen tree and lunges at Sturdy with its fangs bared, catching him in the shoulder; vigorously shaking him in his maw before Sturdy manages to break free. The beast roars in frustration at Sturdy for his stubborn resistance.

Thanks man :) We'll see how it goes a few weeks from now when I've exhausted my child-like vocabulary...

sorry about the critical, its just business :P

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

Since my readied action went off, my initiative count changes to right before the trolls.

DM

Spoiler:

I don't want to be the rules lawyer, but on a charge a creature has to attack from the closest square it can. That means a creature with reach shouldn't be able to charge to an adjacent square. It doesn't matter for me right now, but as a range-focused character it could in the future.

Of course, they may not have reach, or have ability I don't know about. If I'm out of line just give me a say-so, and I'll shut up and enjoy the game.

minor act: place quarry on Troll 1
standard act: Marauder's Rush (charge) to M-17 target Troll 1 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 22 vs AC 1d10 + 9 + 2d8 ⇒ (4) + 9 + (6, 5) = 24 on a hit
miss = A colorful elven expression about the trolls mama!

oh! and save vs poison 1d20 ⇒ 18

["Sturdy" Shodden Mahoen]

Minor Action, unholster Maul, Earthgrasp Strike(Maul) with CA(running), 1d20+15=21 vs Troll1 AC, 2d6+9=18 cold damage and I knock the Troll prone and it can't stand up until the EOMNT, and the first time it stands up before the end of the encounter, it takes 1d10+5=6 damage.
Prone: grant CA to melee attacks, +2 all def against ranged, -2 attack rolls
Sturdy literally tries to pound the troll into the dirt with an overhand swing!
Move action, shift to M17 to get away from Ouda whose bad breath is poisoning me as well
Also Mark Troll1 as a free action

Ouda, Sturdy took M-17, do you mind if I place you in M-18, is that ok?

[Ouda La Ley]

Perfect :)

[Evil Incarnate]

Shodden calmly unholsters his maul, nochalantly smashing the troll across the temple, sending it drooling, down to the ground with a dull thud.

Seeing an opportunity, Ouda, his eyes leaking the sickly green, gas, steps back a few paces before charging, using the momentum to give power to his attack. He cuts deep, creating a large gash across the trolls shoulder. The troll can only scream in frustration as it claws in vain at the ground, struggling to stand after the mighty blow from Shodden.

From out of the zone of grasping shadows comes the basilisk, its teeth bared in frustration as it struggles to escape the shadowy arms. It's eyes leaking the strange greenish gas, it stares at Sturdy, its maw dripping in hunger, filling the area around Sturdy, Ouda, and the troll with the same sickly polution.

The basilisk is targeting M-17, hitting Sturdy, Ouda, and Troll 1:
Sturdy:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24 vs Fort; Hit!;Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 1) = 6
Ouda: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21 vs Fort; Hit!; Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3
Troll1:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24 vs Fort; Hit!; Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7

Sturdy, Ouda, and Troll1 were all hit, taking ongoing Poison 5/SE, in addition anyone adjacent to them at the start of their turn takes 2 Poison dmg.

The area around Sturdy fills with the green vapor, choking all in the area, causing them to leak the same gas from their eyes.

Action Order
Sturdy (18) Poisoned 5/SE, inflict 2 dmg to those around at the start of next turn.

Basilisk is no longer marked.

"Remember, the vagaries of fate can fell even the mightiest among us!"

Ottarr steps towards the troll facing Ordagg and attempts to provide an example.

Move to O20, then use Unluck on T2(vs Reflex, necrotic damage, if hit next attack by target uses 1d20 ⇒ 13 or what it rolled, whichever is lower, and next attack on enemy uses 1d20 ⇒ 14 or what they rolled, whichever is higher) 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 221d8 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

[Evil Incarnate]

Ottarr's words distract and confound the Troll, causing it to heistate, providing a brief moment of opportunity...

Hit!! Now next attack by Troll2 uses 13 or what it rolled, whichever is lower, and allies next attack on enemy uses 14 or what they rolled, whichever is higher.

Ordagg: Good point (btw sorry I didn't see the spoiler before)! That one flew over my head, sorry I didn't catch that, but naw don't worry about calling that out, I would prefer you point out any errors or Inconstancies from the rules. Sturdy, Ouda, and Ordagg, do you want me to push the trolls back a square and move whoever attacked with melee up? My mistake, so you all can decide which you prefer.

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Chilling Cloud v Fort: Burst 1 within 10, enemies only.
On hit, 4 cold damage and target takes -2 penalty to attack rolls to end Rin's next turn.
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 - CA cancelled out by proneness.
Aiming at L16
Moving to L27

Got no fire spells. Sorry folks. Concentrating on T1 on the "focused fire" principle.

"Gah..." Rin makes a hash of trying to keep a good troll down and moves further back.

[Evil Incarnate]

Corrected map with current positions, Ordagg I shifted Troll2 back to correct the charge mistake; corrected basilisks position after its move action (lol sorry I made corrections a little late so I was tired :)

Rin conjures up a cloud of freezing cold vapor around the troll, engulfing it in a zone of frost. At first the troll seems to be affected by the spell, ice and snow covering the body of the creature, giving it the appearance of a statue. But with a mighty howl, the troll continues to writhe on the ground in frustration, still pinned and helpless.

Chilling cloud missed

Ordagg calls out as he moves closer to the main group, "Do none of you have a fiery weapon?" Then he starts another chant, pointing the buisness end of his hammer towards the troll.
Minor action: curse T2. Move to O18. Standard: Hellish Rebuke vs. T2's Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (4) + 11 = 152d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 2) + 5 = 12 fire damage and an additional 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 fire damage if I take damage before the end of my next turn.

Edit: I'll use Ottar's 14 for a 25.

[Evil Incarnate]

Ordagg releases the spell upon the troll and aided by the insight of Ottarr, the fiery bolt impacts the trolls ribs sending chunks of burnt flesh and bone everywhere.

Hit! Troll will take 6 fire dmg if Ordagg takes dmg, till eont.

The troll by Sturdy and Ouda struggles to rise, its head listing side to side, still disoriented by Sturdys powerful blow. The feeble creature reaches out viciously towards the goliath, its claws jagged and filthy.

Troll1 attacks Sturdy with Claws: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17 vs AC; Miss!! Ouda and Sturdy take 2 poison dmg from being next to troll.1d20 ⇒ 2 vs Poison

The troll squirms in vain as it tries to rend Sturdy with its claws, howling in futility.

Troll 2 moves towards Ordagg and tries to grab him: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23 vs Fort; Miss!!

Seeing only Ordagg, the cursed troll rushes forward, its arms outstretched. The creature manages to wrest its hands upon the wily dwarf for only a moment, as he breaks free of the powerful grip with ease.

[Evil Incarnate]

Ouda cuts and runs on the troll, creating a wide slit in the creatures throat, sending black blood everywhere while circling around the creatures flank.

Your attack did hit, bloodying troll 1 :)

The basilisk moves to flank Sturdy, attacking with a Bite:

The basilisk circles around Sturdy, its maw open wide and fangs dripping saliva, and lunges at the warden.

Bite attack on Sturdy, 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 35 vs AC; Critical! 7 damage (accounting Resist 5).

The giant reptile bites down deep, catching Sturdy in the right arm, coating it's razor sharp teeth in his blood.

Action Order
Sturdy (18) Resist 5 all until EOMNT.
Ouda (17)- Poisoned 5/SE (inflicts 2 dmg to those around him start of next turn.)
Basilisk (17)-
Ottarr (14)
Rin (13)
Ordagg (10)-Grabbed by troll2;
Troll 1(9)- Bloodied; prone, first time it stands up before the end of the encounter, it takes 6 damage; marked by Sturdy; Ouda's quarry; Poisoned 5/SE, inflict 2 dmg to those around at the start of next turn.
Troll 2(9)- Cursed by Ordagg; 6 fire damage if Ordagg takes damage before the end of my next turn.

"Ottarr" is up

[Ottarr Boddason]

Ottarr continues to show how fortune can lay even the mightiest foe low, this time causing the troll to stumble right into Sturdy's maul.

Shift back to O21, then using Blunder on T2 (vs Will, if hit slide target to N16, and Sturdy can make a basic attack on it with a +3 bonus to attack. Also, it's grab is broken.) 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 291d6 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

[Evil Incarnate]

Like a drunkard leaving the tavern, the troll stumbles wildly about, completely disoriented by Ottarr's enchantment, and providing an opportune moment for Sturdy...

Hit!! Sturdy go ahead and make your OA against troll 2 with +3 bonus to hit; Ordagg is no longer grabbed.

Action Order
Sturdy (18) Resist 5 all until EOMNT.
Ouda (17)- Poisoned 5/SE (inflicts 2 dmg to those around him start of next turn.)
Basilisk (17)-
Ottarr (14)
Rin (13)
Ordagg (10)-
Troll 1(9)- Bloodied; prone, first time it stands up before the end of the encounter, it takes 6 damage; marked by Sturdy; Ouda's quarry; Poisoned 5/SE, inflict 2 dmg to those around at the start of next turn.
Troll 2(9)- Cursed by Ordagg; 6 fire damage if Ordagg takes damage before the end of Ordaggs next turn.

["Sturdy" Shodden Mahoen]

Sturdy relishes being surrounded by enemies.
OA(+3), melee basic attack, 1d20+16=20 vs T2 AC, 2d6+9=11 cold damage

[Ordagg Blackaxe]

Ordagg brazenly turns his back on the troll and walks a few steps away to get a better look at the other troll.
Move to L19, provoking from T2. If T2 doesn't attack me or hit me, I'd also like to provoke from T1. Minor action to curse T1.

Once there, he points his hammer at the other troll and says "I think you'd look better closer to yer friends."
Diabolic Grasp vs. T1's Fort: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 252d8 + 9 ⇒ (8, 6) + 9 = 231d6 ⇒ 4 and slide T1 to M15.

If that works...

Spoiler:

Spend action point to use Mordant Rain of Dis vs. T1's Reflex: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 171d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 and T1 is blinded and T2 and the basilisk take 3 acid damage.

[Evil Incarnate]

Taking his cue from Ottarr, Sturdy spins around to face the troll to his rear, swinging his maul as he turns. The weapon connects with the trolls jaw, spraying teeth and blood everywhere...but the troll continues on.

Hit! Ordagg I'll post your results once Rin has acted.

Action Order
Sturdy (18) Resist 5 all until EOMNT.

"Rin" is up

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Enemies Abound (Will). Burst 1 within 20. Enemies only. On hit, and you and your allies can treat the target as an ally for the purposes of flanking until the end of your next turn.

1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16 - v T1 (inc -2 for it being prone)
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26 - v Basilisk
1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30 - v T2

If anything hits 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (3, 8) + 6 = 17 psychic damage and effect as above.

"It's so hard to tell who to trust ..."

Rin gestures lightly with his orb, seeking to befuddle his enemies into thinking they are beset on all sides.

[Rin Lyulfsson]

Aha. Crit on T2. He takes 22 psychic plus an additional 2d6 ⇒ (6, 6) = 12 force damage from the orb.

Does anyone want T2 or the basilisk pushed? I can shove one of them (if the attack hit the basilisk) two squares as a free action once per encounter on a hit. Not sure how everyone's tactics work this early.

I'm happy as long as they're adjacent to each other, but I think "Sturdy" would prefer them adjacent to him.
