Adventure:A Jaz of all Trades (DM:Luinnar Judge: H.M.Gimlord).

Dorn moves into the fray (Move to O15) and conjures a primordial storm which engulfs two of the ghosts in lightning and thunder. (Primordial Storm hits Terror 3 and Warrior 3 for 23 lightning and thunder damage each. Terror 3 takes 10 cold and fire damage at the start of its turn from even roll. Warrior 3 takes 5 cold and fire damage at start of its turn and is slowed TENT from odd roll.)

Dorn lets out a horrific roar, and two pointy horns burst through his skull. He seems engorged with demonic power; even his allies feel the surge of energy. He whips himself into a ball of electricty, sending death and destruction through the ranks of his enemies. (Action point: Spark form. Dorn shifts 9 squares through his enemies, ending in P21, making an attack against each in turn. Roll 1 Roll 2. Terror 1 hit 18 lightning damage. Warrior 2 hit 18 lightning damage. Warrior 1 miss. Samantha hit/killed for 21 lightning damage. Warrior 3 hit for 23 lightning damage. Terror 3 CRIT for 23 lightning + 10 ongoing damage (save ends) + knock prone).

Each of Dorn's allies gets one whole turn with +3 to hit, and Dorn's enemies get +3 to hit Dorn for one turn. Dorn will use Narrow Escape when he is next hit.

OOC: Did the charge attack against Jax include -5 for total concealment (invisible)? I think it would have missed with that.

GM:

Did Jax's granted MBA remove his invisibility from the armor?

Dekana · Jun 21, 2012

OOC:

Nah, attacking doesn't remove invisibility unless the power says it does. (In 3.5 that was true, but it's not part of the invisibility condition in 4e)

GM:

Thanks, I was not sure what the power said. It missed, I updated the sblock.

Also the ghostly terrors had a +2 bonus to defenses I forgot to get rid of this turn.

OOC:

@nerdytenor you can shift 5 squares after spending your AP if you'd like.

Andras carefully lines up a shot on one of the specters. "Jax, get ready to-whoops! Never mind," he exclaims as his arrow, intended only as a guide, disperses the undead creature. He shrugs, readies another arrow, and lets it fly. He curses as it misses its target, but again he's pleasantly surprised as the shot ricochets into a different ghost.

[sblock=Actions]Standard: On My Mark vs Terror 1. Hits AC 35 for 19 damage. Uh, which kills it, actually.
AP: Staggering Shot vs Warrior 1. Misses by 1.
Free Action: Rebounding Longbow. I get to make a RBA against, oh Terror 3. So that's a crit. 21+6=27 damage.
Move: Move to Q16.

If an ally within 5 is hit by an enemy by 1 or less, I'll use Insightful Warning, giving the ally a +2 power bonus to defenses against the attack and an MBA against the attacker.

Brenn stepped back and fired another arrow into the spectral creature- and again the force-imbued projectile seemed to tear at its ectoplasmic form, spinning it to the ground.

Quagmire sees that none of his friends are in immediate need of healing, so he wades further into the fray and slices across one of the ghostly warriors.

GM:

Thanks for letting me know pathfinderq1

Terror 1 was dead before Andras attacked it, so I changed both attacks to Terror 3 and had Jax take the shift/MBA killing it.

Nooooooo! I will kill...you'll never...I'll.. Samantha whispers as she fades away from view as Dorn hits her with his spell. In response to her demise the ghostly warriors stab into Sir ExSixTen's armor with their spears, ripping metal plates off him. The terrible female ghost near Brenn attempts to get closer to him, but is hindered by his shot. Another warrior charges Brenn,who easily leaps aside.

With the Warriors locked up in melee combat, Dorn focuses on the remaining terror. He moves a bit closer (Move to R17) and lets loose a triple blast of demonic energy. The first blast seems to rip through the very fabric of space, sending friend and foe flying.

Critical miss - everyone except Terror 3 is pushed one square away from Dorn (currently at R17). This seems like a reasonable outcome (DM correct/approve at will):
Andras -> P15
Brenn -> M12
Ghost Warrior 1 -> M14
Ghost Warrior 2 -> M19
Sir Exsixsten -> N19
Ghost Warrior 3 -> N20
Quagmire -> N21
Jax -> Q21
Jaz -> R20

Dorn regains control for the second and third blasts, sending the terror to the ground in a seeming terror of its own (Second attack CRITS for 25 max lightning damage, Terror 3 is knocked prone, takes 10 ongoing damage (save ends) and slides to N8. Third attack hits for 19 lightning damage, and Terror 3 slides to M8. Rolls here)
