[sblock=ooc]Does Hankel get to spend a healing surge because of Stand the Fallen?

Also, please state effects in your posts, folks. The pace we're at, I forget what people's abilities do. I would have blithely ignored this one if I hadn't looked it up out of sheer curiosity.[/sblock]

H.M.Gimlord · Oct 31, 2011

GM:

I believe Hankel does get the benefit of StF. Thus healing 8hp, and regaining consciousness.

[sblock=ooc]I always list the effects in my OOC.

effect: all allies in 10 sqs can spend a HS.

What shall I write IC? 'Riardon calls and suddenly all you feel healed'???

The healing fluff is sometimes a bit hard to describe for a warlord[/sblock]

Inspired by Riardon's war cry, and seeing that Hankel is now coming around, Fenwick leaves the dwarf where he is, and makes a move to help the warlord, who appears threatened by several foes. Seeing that the creatures guarding the gate are poised to strike, Fenwick rushes around behind Riardon, and with a wild cry goes crashing at the more wounded of the defenders. The creature bites him as he approaches. He hits hard, but not enough to take the thing down. Warily, he steps back around the edge of the doorway.[sblock=Actions]Regain 18 HP from Stand the Fallen, putting him at 69/73 (you missed last turn's AP and Second Wind in the "status" block)

Sorry for the long pause. I'll post an update tomorrow.

Hankel comes to and immediately springs into action, "Let us send these hellhounds back to whence they came!" hurling a hammer at one of the canine constructs. Unfortunately, his hammer misses.

TikChik attempts an awkward exit, and almost loses another arm as he hacks at his ferrous foe. To make matters worse, the archer moves forward and sends a shaft deep into the thri-kreen's shoulder.

The clanking dogs continue to defend their territory, snapping at Riardon and Fenwick. The eladrin manages to avoid the razor-sharp teeth, but Fenwick is not so lucky. The construct bites and holds onto Fenwick's arm, forcing the orc to shed a great deal of blood shaking the thing loose.

Arrows rain from above, and in a sad twist of irony, manage to find the dwarf once more. Hankel goes down.

[/sblock][sblock=Terrain]The well is of an unknown depth (until someone looks in). It can be climbed with an extra square of movement, but moving out of its square requires a DC 20 Acrobatics check or the creature must save vs. falling into the well.

Riardon

"Fenwick, we need to concentrate on one opponent at a time!" Riardon calls, invigorating the barbarian. His own blow misses, but he at least provides an opportunity to flank.

Voda Vosa · Nov 7, 2011

Making a more practical display of martial skills, Sheng makes a backflip kick, smashing the iron defender's head with his foot, and then as h finish the spin, he punches the golem in the upper side of the neck. The creature stumbles to a side, as the monk hurries in, making a quick jump to evade the snapping mandibles of the iron dog. His path takes him behind the skeleton archer, where the jadite unleashes another set of moves. They seem much like Tai-Chi-Chuan, slow motion circular moves. As he executes the stance, the wind around he monk swirls and buffets the enemies, until it turns into a tornado! The winds strike at the three creatures, sending the iron defenders out, stumbling in the wind, but the skeleton, being made of less wind resistant material, just slides softly.
In the aftermatch, the sorceror, now levitating, quickly flies up the stairs.

[sblock=actions]
AP: Twin thunder vs iron defender in C25: Hit for 15, slide to D25 (using centred flurry of blows). Power grants a move action without generating AP from 1 adjacent creature, so Sheng moves to A18
Stdrd: Using Winds of Change, hit both iron defenders, bu miss skeleton archer. SKA suffers 11 dmg and is pushed to C18, while ID at D17 and D19 sufer 22 dmg and are pushed to G17 and G19 respectively.
Move: Sheng has gained Fly by Winds of Change, so he flies up the stairs.

"LOOK OUT BELOW, FOR THE AXE OF AGES COMES FROM ON NIGH!"
Gensai proclaimed.

[sblock=Second Floor]

Not sure how all this would work, given my component of actions. So I will:

1. Discard Axe out of nearest window-slit

2. push over a barrel of oil (preferably not the I put a leak in)

3. Roll said barrel down the hallway, ideally with sword still in hand. But if it will slow me considerably, stow blade.
