[LPF] Uncertain Whereabouts

"Thuvian behind you! In the trees!" Ioseph yells as he barrels into the woods. The cleric reaches the strange dog-like imp and raises his hammer threateningly.

"Stand down or die!" he says with extra malice in his voice.

The hideous creature laughs wretchedly at the holy man, either unconvinced or unconcerned by his threats. Raising the hand with the unidentified pile of brown matter - which, at this distance, smells horribly - the sadistic dog gives another laugh and lets it fly. Ioseph is able to dodge the stuff, however, which he is now pretty sure is of organic origin, and the pugwampi glares angrily. Retreating to lodge between a set of trees, the creature smiles menacingly, and then whistles. Ioseph has just enough time to turn and see that another foul creature has stepped out from behind a tree to the north before its slingstone catches him square across the forehead.

To the south, Saranna hears a crashing of tree limbs and turns to see a green imp charging at her with a spear. She sidesteps and avoids the worst of the blow, but the imp still catches her on her lower side, causing a minor gash. Nearby, another dog-like creature appears, also carrying both a bow and a mound. He lets the latter fly at Arianna, and she's not as fortunate as Ioseph, taking the pile square in the face.

[sblock=OOC]Ioseph takes 1 point of damage, Saranna takes 2, and Arianna takes a mound of poop in the face; she's the equivalent of dazzled until she wipes it out of her eyes (a move action).

Bet she's never had that happen before.

Also, as HolyMan demonstrated, any d20 rolls need to be rolled twice, and the worse of the two used, when within 20 ft of a pugwampi. Should make for fun times.[/sblock][sblock=Map] [/sblock]

Thuvian decides its time to demonstrate the other half of making illusions dangerous by popping a real spell. Moving around the creature to the north, he drops a cloudbank in an effort to buy his party members to the south time to deal with those foes.

The creatures to the north yelp with surprise as the magical mist radiates outward from Thuvian and enshrouds them.

The halfling woman takes the hit in stride and draws up her rapier as she steps to the side, and lashes out with the weapon.

(( 5ft-Move to I-13, draw rapier (move action), and attack 1d20+5=15 1d20+5=17... if hit 1d4=3 dmg ))

[sblock=Edit: OOC][MENTION=23494]Songdragon[/MENTION]: Actually, I believe Saranna is still within 20 ft of the Pugwampi to the southeast, meaning she needs to make another attack roll.[/sblock]

Arianna (Mermaid Synthesist 1)

Arianna drops her spear gun and wipes the mess from her face, then closing on the little bugger, tears at it.

Arianna trips as she moves towards the pugwampi, and her attacks flail wildly; the pugwampi easily them, giggling repulsively the entire time.

[sblock=OOC]HM to act, need another roll from Songdragon, then Round 2.[/sblock]

OCC: You said HM to act then rd 2 - I think that this is my round 2 actions. Is this not right?

Ioseph steps up in the thick soup and swings at the shadowy form of the fey in front of him. Missing once more he wonders at how his blows are so strangely off.

Although he's able to find his target within the fog well enough, the holy man's swing takes a sudden veer to the left, and comes down harmlessly next to its target. Through the fog, Ioseph can see that the creature wagging a finger at him in a mocking scold. For her part, Saranna has better luck, catching the over-exposed kobold across the chest in what seems to be a major wound. The creature retaliates with his spear, but this time Saranna's armor saves her from any wound.

To the north, the other kobold moves out of Thuvian's cloud in an attempt to clear his sightline. Catching sight of Saranna doing battle with his brethren to the south, he launches a stone from his sling, which manages somehow to wind through the trees unscathed in search of its target; Saranna, however, miraculously turns to the north at the last moment, and is able dexterously raise her shield and deflect the stone.

The pugwampi to the north takes a step into the trees and fires an arrow at Ioseph; whether because of the fog or the trees, however, it flies wildly over the cleric's head. Even so, the dog continues the hideous chitter that seems to serve as laughter for it. To the south, Arianna's foe seems to be more concerned with harassing her than causing any real damage: he takes a step backwards, points a bony finger, and screams at a supernatural volume. To her horror, the merwoman's necklace explodes into dust.

[sblock=OOC]I rolled again for Saranna, and it was even better than the first one, so she hits, dealing 3 points of damage to the kobold. The first three baddie attacks miss; the last pugwampi casts shatter, destroys Arianna's necklace (I thought about going for the backpack, but that would have been a royal pain). You're up, gang.[/sblock][sblock=Map][/sblock]
