TUW: The Outpost

Tellerian Hawke · Feb 6, 2019

As the two women are moving away from Maka, toward Raven Elk, Maka puts an arrow in one of their backs!

Kwargrow · Feb 6, 2019

Knowing he's been seen, Taylar intends to become part of the distraction to help his stealthier friends get their shots in. He stands up in plain view with his baton raised over his head and screams, "Du magst also zulfallige Gewalt!" [Reaction: 72, Attempt to Intimidate (Blather): 60]

In an attempt to turn one or both of the woman from their change in direction and knowing that it is probably hopeless, Adi launches his javelin at the other woman from the one Maka chose.

Noticing that the priest is distracted from locating Taylar, Vittero fires an arrow at him.

[sblock=Reaction Time]Readiness + Impetus + Clarity + d100 - Armor Hindrance
Raven Elk: 19 + 24 + 24 + 50 = 117 - 136 = -19
Maka: 16 + 27 + 19 + 50 = 112 - 121 = -9
Adisakti: 15 + 20 + 13 + 41 = 89 - 110 = -21
Spies: 18 + 32 + 26 + 50 = 126 - 100 = 26[/sblock]

GM:

Since the women are unaware of Maka and Adisakti, they are able to launch surprise attacks.

[sblock=Projectile Assault]Launch + Precision + Clarity + d100 +/- range - cover
Maka: 16 + 27 + 19 + 50 = 112 - 0(medium range) - 50(moving w/ cover) = 62 + 17 (effective stealth) = 79
Adisakti: 15 + 20 + 13 + 93 + 54 = 195 - 0 - 50 = 145 + 48 = 193

Projectile Avoidance: Preservation + Konokoro + d100
Spies: 34 + 26 + 85 = 145
Damage: 193 - 145 = 48% * 10 = 5 - 7, ineffective[/sblock]

GM:

Despite having the element of surprise, Maka's shot goes harmlessly wide. With a bit of luck, Adisakti actually manages to hit one of the spies with his javelin; albeit at the distance, the weapon is ineffective in penetrating the girl's armor. The spy turns as she feels the blow, seeing the javelin on the ground. She calls to her companion and the two draw arrows to return fire. Raven can somewhat see and tell by the sound that the woman are no longer heading in his direction, leaving him free to pursue other options.

GM:

Taylar makes his presence even more visible as he stands and yells at the priest. The man's mask flicks as he snorts at the affront, unmoved by the intimidation tactic. The distraction, however, proved beneficial, as Vittero plants an arrow center mass on the priest. The arrow hangs for a second then falls, indicating that the man must be armored underneath the surcoat. He cries out in pain as the arrow proves to be somewhat effective. The priest is not deterred by the injury, he yells back at Taylar, "I will cleanse the land of your pestilence, vermin."

Half of the soldiers are running forward to aid the priest. The others are fanning out in a defensive manner. They obviously have had some training in battle tactics. The nervous looks on their faces say that the training has been minimal.

Taylar holds his arms wide, preparing to meet the charge of the soldiers. "You have shown us who you are, now show us what you can do!" he remarks to no one in particular. When the soldiers draw close enough he will attack with his baton, manipulating Way to freeze his opponents when he strikes.

Raven Elk sees the spies racing back away from camp. He also sees Maka aiming for the first spy, so Raven Elk charges along the hypotenuse trajectory to close in and attack the second spy.

Day 268: Thisidan Soldiers

OOC: Reaction Roll: 84; Projectile Attack Roll: 87

Adi takes a second javelin, planning to launch it at point blank range at the other spy, after which he switches his spear to his right hand to prepare for melee. If the spies halt to fire their bows, Adi will launch his second javelin then.

GM:

As soon as the two spies find their targets, they fire their own bows.

[sblock=Reaction]Maka: 16 (Readiness) + 27 (Athletic) + 19 (Clarity) + 84 (d100) = 146

Maka: 16 + 27 + 19 + 87 = 149 + 50(short) = 199

Spies: 32(preservation) + 26(konokoro) + 77(d100) = 135
Damage: 199 - 135 = 64% * 10 = 6 - 7(deflect), ineffective
Maka: 27(obscurative) + 19(konokoro) + 87 = 133
Damage: 203 - 133 = 70% * 10 = 7 - 6(deflect) = 1
Body: 10 - 1 = 9, hurt
Adisakti: 21 + 15 + 88 = 124
Damage: 203 - 124 = 79% * 10 = 8 - 2(deflect) = 6
Body: 10 - 6 = 4, injured[/sblock]

GM:

Adisakti launches his second javelin when the two girls stop to fire their bows. The distance proves too much for the miniature spear to be effective and it glances off his target. The spies fire faster than Maka, putting an arrow in each of their targets. The arrow in Maka barely causes him harm, but the one in Adisakti, causes significant injury. Maka fires his own arrow as he is struck, but his projectile proves less than effective in penetrating the double-knit wool armor of his foe.

Vittero begins to ease backward and to his left hoping to continue to use his bow as long as he can before being forced to switch to melee. He continues to target the priest.

GM:

The three soldiers in the lead, rushing headlong, do not appear to see Vittero. They are focused on Taylar. The priest, however, who has been hurt with a previous arrow, knows that Taylar has an accomplice. The priest swings his right arm up to point two finger directly at Vittero. A bolt of lightning streaks from his hand to his target. "May the righteous fire of the Lord of the Day burn your blackened essence!"

Vittero: 17 + 23 + 70 > 93[/sblock]

GM:

Before the soldiers reach Taylar and before Vittero can fire a second arrow, the priest moves into dangerous action. He alternates his arms, firing a lightning bolt first at Vittero, which causes him notable harm. He flicks his left arm and fires a second bolt at Taylar, who resists the electric shock. He fires a third bolt back at Vittero, who like Taylar is able to resist the effects of this one.

GM:

Taylar defends himself well, until he is overwhelmed by three opponents. They continue to cut away at him with their short swords from three sides until he falls, at which point they stop swinging. As he falls incapacitated, Taylar finishes his swing upon the soldier directly in front of him. The force of the blow staggers him, and the addition of the loud thump ends his consciousness. The other two soldiers look down at the bleeding skull of their comrade, then back at the fallen form of Taylar. They then look to the priest for further commands seeing two arrows sticking from him.

GM:

Having to close the distance to acquire his target Raven Elk acts last of the crew. Unfortunately, the spy upon whom he closes has a significant presence of mind and managed to successfully defend against the physical assault. To the benefit of Maka and Adisakti, this spy must now face her new opponent and forgo firing another arrow at her previous ones.

Raven Elk calls on Way attack and defense prowess. He knows this is a skilled fighter, possibly beyond his present skill set; but, hopefully, with Way, he can at least even the odds.

OOC:

Rolls: 93 + 82 (luck) = 175, 81, 63, 75, 90

GM NOTE:
I have been printing this every combat to help players.
Physical Assault: Attack (combat) + Precision (commercial) + Fury (collegiate) + d100.

These three factors are automatically applied every time. If any player wishes his character to do something more, specifics will need to be stated in the post.

OOC:

These are Maka's next five rolls, as per LINE chat.
100 (+42 luck roll), 70, 50, 70, 76.

Maka, seeing that one of the spies has engaged Raven Elk, switches his target to her, on the logic that since she has stopped to engage, she is no longer a moving target, and therefore easier to hit.

OOC:

Projectile Assault: 142 (from base roll and luck.)

After firing an arrow at the engaged spy, Maka shoulders his bow, and rushes the second one. As he is running, he draws his knife; his intent is to catch her, stab her, and affect her with Thermal Way.

OOC:

Melee assault: 70, Thermal Way: 50 (base rolls)

GM NOTE:
One intended action at a time. Your character cannot perform two actions in two different locations at the same time.
