[Adventure]: The Bane of the Black Dragon (DM: Dimsdale, Judge ??)

+++What?+++

Drew hears the commotion, but finishes his task first. It's only a single warlord after all. "The wizard can handle it for sure, pompous windbag." he things to himself wrily. He focuses whole of his attention into the sense of touch, running his hand over the wall, torch, torch sconce and every nook and crany on the wall, his eyes wondering quickly over the surface, trying to spot something out of place.

His focus is just over waist level as that would be where goblins natural reach would be, but he doesn't forget the floor and the area just over his head. Due to speed he doesn't check the area above his easy reach.

OOC: I'd say, easy reach would be between 7'-7'4'' at most.

[sblock=Actions]
Move: S26 -> V26 -> S23 - this assumes I can check while moving, if not, movement to U26 only to check 3 adjacent squares

Minor: Perception; Thievery (1d20+8=11, 1d20+11=30) - again, [MENTION=79956]dimsdale[/MENTION], you didn't specify which is to be used so here are both. If he didn't find anything, put Drew in M26 with his standard

Standard: Move to M22, conditional on not finding anything. If he does, I'll change this.

Minor Action:N/A
[/sblock]

The leader shows why he's in charge by the way he wields his bastard sword. Seeing he's flanked by two heroes, the leader first brutally thrusts his sword into the blind construct, then rips out his weapon. This causes oil and other fluids to leak from the fighter at a steady rate. In a blur the leader shifts back and takes a swipe at the barbarian, but misses.

Seeing that two of the enemies are now within the room the leader springs his trap. NOW! he grins menacingly. He waits but nothing happens. I SAID NOW YOU IDIOTS!...SHOOT THE BASTARDS!

But no arrows fly...

The leader is clearly angered by what just occurred. I'll deal with you low lives after I finish with them.

ooc: It's the party's turn

+++You can't hurt me. You'll only blunt your sword. Surrender now+++, shows the construct as he advances relentlessly on the hobgoblin.

[sblock=actions]
Before turn: Takes 10 damage, not 11, thanks to damage reduction (armor property) and since the hobgoblin shifted Prime could make a Combat challenge attack (being blinded prohibits making attacks of opportunity, but not immediate interrupts). Attack takes total concealment penalties (-5) and +3 bonus from last round's Shield Feint. Attack fails however.

Start of turn: Takes 4 ongoing damage, reduced from 5. Total so far is 14, so all temporary hit points are gone, but Prime is unhurt.

Move: To current position

Standard: Tide of Iron, with total concealment penalties (can't get flanking bonuses since blinded). Doesn't hit, but Marks the hobgoblin.

End of turn: Saves Vs Blinded and Ongoing damage (later with racial +2 bonus)[/sblock]


[sblock=mini-stats] Prime Warforged Fighter 5
[sblock=Things to remember]

• Prime has damage reduction 1 against all damage
• When an enemy marked by Prime makes an attack that doesn’t include him, he can make an Immediate Interrupt to make a Melee Basic Attack against him. If the attack connects, he can push the target up to 3 squares; since interrupts happen before the action that provoked them, pushing an enemy that attacks an ally beyond reach can potentially negate the attack altogether. Notice also that this attack isn’t an opportunity attack
• Prime has a +2 bonus to hit with Opportunity attacks and if they hit they stop enemies if a move provoked the attack. They can resume moving using other actions.

Trigguers:
Shield Edge Block when the -4 to the enemy’s roll can negate the attack
Guardian’s Counter when an ally within 2 squares is attacked, especially if the swap would negate the attack (it hit the ally’s defense, but is not high enough to hit Prime’s)

Vermitrax taps his staff in the ground, casting the same spell that petrified the goblins in the last chamber. Cyan runes surround the goblin chief, and the circle of magical energy begins to glow... But before the spell completes, the hobgoblin notices the arcane runes and jumps out of the way, and the spell warps up with not target inside the area of effect.

Drew runs past the bard and the mage at full spring, charging at the goblin leader. He flies over last few feet, slamming his leg into leader's torso

[sblock=Actions]

Standard: Charge vs AC (leader); damage (1d20+10+1=23, 1d8+3=5)

Gellan shifts to a two-handed grip on his weapon, and his tattoo glows once more as a faint echo of a stampeding herd rumbles through the air. He takes a mighty swing, connecting with the hobgoblin solidly.

[sblock=Actions]Minor: Stow offhand weapon.
Free: Wield mainhand weapon two-handed (versatile)
Standard: Attack with Thunder Hooves Rage, with CA from flanking. Hits AC 24 for 24 damage. Gellan enters the rage of the thunder hooves; until the rage ends, he can move through one or two enemies's spaces during his turn. When he moves through an enemy's space, his next attack against that enemy deals an additional 1d8 damage.[/sblock]
