The pit fighters today are both short and have ugly pets. They take their places to a smattering of applause, their respective beasts looking disrespectful. Inen to the north, Bruno to the south, pets to the left.
Inen Strides calmly into the Arena, beside him walks the hound, low and predatory.
Inen
The Hound
Ahh another one, come so soon to have their candle snuffed out by my shadow
Bruno enters the Arena confident, if with a bit less swagger than before. His defeat by his Dwarven counterpart has brought him down a notch.
His chain mail has been cleaned of blood and shines in the uniform light. He carries a finely crafted lance, a wicked looking pick, and several pillum. He strides in beside his faithful steed Esmaralda the Battle Camel; an ugly, smelly specimen of the animal if there ever was one. The two seem at ease with each other's stench and patiently await the horn.
Well Bruno goes first sorry I didn't make my rolls viable.
Inen 20
The Hound 5
Bruno springs to the saddle with his usual surprising grace. He edges Esmaralda to the right and yells, Have at ye, Dog-lover!
The Hound and Inen stride calmly behind the pillar at c 8 out of view
Bruno humphs in his saddle.
Plaster one gnome 'ore the lintel an' everyone runs 'n' hides. he tells across the arena followed by much muttering and rude comments. He reigns Esmaralda around and moves about the outer perimeter of the arena, trying to spot his foe.
As you come around into sight of the gnome and his pet you see the light of a spell fizzle around the beast as it bounds towards you. as it leaps from the ground it lunges for your throat snapping its jaws viciously
Hound
The beast charges across the ground closing the gap instantly
first attack. 17 to hit, if so then 4 damage
Second attack 19 to hit and 6 damage
Bruno immidiate: mounted ride check success for cover action
Move action to recover, move to draw pick
Bruno deflects the first attack with his shield and shows off some of his riding skill by dropping to the side of Esmaralda to avoid the second attack, dropping his lance in the process. After the danger passes, he drops to the ground, draws his pick, and whistles sharply. Esmaralda's eyes focus on the furry attacker and her teeth lash out in reprisal.
back to Bruno
Inen steps from behind the pillar throws a hand up at the camel and utters several words
spell craft 16 and the camel needs to make a will save dc 16
The hound opens his mouth in a roar and a shard of ice smashes into the stinking camel
19 touch on the camel for 2 cold
After which in lithe motion the hound darts between the camels legs (or over them depending) and smashes into Bruno
Acrobatics to move through the camels square
Hound's Bite
19 to hit and 7 damage
dazed for 1 round
and the acrobatics failed
D3
ignore the cold damage to the camel
yes your turn
E got dazed first then puppy moved to attack, Bruno from d3
Bruno grunts as the dog wounds him, but doesn't slow him down. He sees his path to the master of the puppy blocked, so he circles the immidiate threat, swinging his pick in a lateral arc.
The Hound growls in a high pitched whine as the blow strikes deep
Inen delays till after the hound
The hound Bounds back to C6
Acrobatics not to provoke....
Hopefully a 27 beats your cmd
Inen: from his pouches he draws a handful of small materials like a gunslinger drawing a gun and begins chanting as he presses a hand to the Hound's back
Bruno wastes no time. He gives a sharp whistle to Esmaralda who immidiately focuses on her furry nemesis with viciously beedy eyes. Bruno charges straight at the pup with a mighty roar and Esmaralda follows suit, trotting around the pillar to strike at the furry menace with her long neck and teeth.
E provokes as she moves to D-E/4-5
the hound lashes out
AoO
unless a 15 hits, The hound may be out of luck, if it does hit 7 damage
Bruno swings wide and misses as the hound dodges to the side.. right into the vile jaws of the camel
The hound takes 8
Inen sensing the danger and pain of his furry friend, once again presses his palm against the creatures back and a flare of blue energy courses into the beast.
Spell craft 16 if you are curious.
The Hound.
Filled with new life and ferocity the Hound lunges for Esmeralda's throat
17 to hit E and 7 damage
The hound's teeth catch Esmaralda, but her thick furr prevents serious damage. The battle is on. Bruno steps around the side of the dog and attacks while Esmaralda bites back.
The Hound crumples under the massive blows dealt by both Bruno and Esmeralda
But soon you see the life surging back into his eye in a burning hatred
Suddenly a thick billowing cloud of smoke erupts in C6-C7
Acrobatics away...
Hound nimbly darts away from his aggressors 24?
and vanishes behind the smoke
Both your foes disappear behind the smoke cloud in an instant...... Unless the hounds acrobatics doesn't beat your cmd
Bruno is wary of such sorcery and jogs over to Esmeralda, mounting a bit more slowly due to his wound. Instead of fool-heartily charging through the mist, Bruno directs Esmeralda around the pillar at a distance to reacquire his target.
Nether The Hound nor his master come into sight
Perception if you want.
and his bite now threatens 10 ft. The Hound readies an action to move to k13 should they be spotted. and Inen draws his spear and braces for a charge
Bruno spots Inen on his way around the pilar. With a surprised shout he pulls the oblivious Esmeralda around and rushes to the south of the pillar, hoping to catch the little caster unprepared.
in fact you do provoke an attack of
Inen:
19 to hit your camel and 8 damage
If that hits
Does that take E down cause if not its pretty much game over
By the time Bruno begins moving, the smoke has already cleared, and he has no trouble going after the halfling.
The attack wings Esmeralda, causing her attack to miss, but Bruno reigns her in and continues his onslaught.
hold up... the 8 damage to E made her miss but not Bruno?
no the reason I ask is that my attack of oppertunity as I was ready for the charge... however you killed me dead... like little gooey bits dead
with the 16 damage
