[LPF] The Old Alchemist

Cyansylph · Mar 15, 2011

"Damned birds; that smarts"
Le Jubb leaps backward - drawing a catalyst, he infuses it with some arcane power and lobs it just past the bird that had bit him - hoping to not scald his new companions.

targetting the bottom right corner of the square i was in previously

Having no spells available that will not put her comrades jeopardy, Anna does her best to lure the creature into Therella's blade, and takes a step SE.

OOC:

lol, super fail.

Muzdum tries to finish drawing his axe, at the same time that hitting the chickens of hell. In a whole too clumy movement to be described, he messes up with his weapon, almost cutting his arm off.

OOC: two 1's in a row... wow, and I thought Ic was bad.

Wary of the potential crossbow fire, Krad steps closer to the wall, drawing his own sword as he moves. He then tries to whack the cockatrice that tried to attack him, while the one attacking Therella receives some of its own medicine - Krad tries to strike it with his beak.

OOC:

5' step west+draw weapon. full attack.
Attack: 18, Damage 12
Attack: 9

OOC: Update moved, nothing but rolls here now.

HolyMan · Mar 17, 2011

[sblock=Updated] Pretty much that update fluff was the end of round 1 and the start of round 2.

It is now still round 2 and Anna, Le Jubb, Krad, and Therella need to go please.[/sblock]

OOC: Moving this up, rolls on other page.

As Krad puts his back against the wall he wonders why there are no crossbow bolts raining down on all of them. He only takes a moment to think on it before drawing his blade and slicing off one of the weird chickens heads.

Anna escapes to what she hopes is safety but the creature follows her and flaps it's leathery wings to attack her face. Instinctively she throws both her arms up and then lets out a scream as the terrible little thing pecks at her yet again. This time it feels different her arm feels funny and she looks at it quickly. Around the red blood spot where the beast got her the arm looks a pale gray. Almost like... like what Thurkin's skin looked like. The smooth skin is now stiff and rock like.

Le Jubb roasts the creature fighting him as he moves next to Muzdum. The dwarf seems to have trouble hitting the quick moving little chickens as they peck and move at the dwarves feet and legs.

The little beasts seemed to be scary at first, but they quickly proved to be weak and squishy. Krad produces a victorious croak as his blade slices the attacking creature in two. His amber eyes dart across the battlefield to find a new target and he thrusts his sword into the closest enemy.

Muzdum can't believe his luck. Three misses in a row! "Fer me papa's beard! Stay still so me can split ye in two!" he frustratedly screams to the chicken.
