[Adventure] The Race of the Five Horns (DM: stonegod, Judge: THB)

[stonegod]

Assassination! Round 4

Rikka releases a swarm of stinging flies never before seen in the city of Sharn. The lackey panics as she is striken, finding out too late of her alergies as she clutches her throat and falls. "Twinrose" throws up her cape to ignore the worst of the stinging, but the construct just takes the damage, unconcerned.

[L1 dead. TR missed and ID takes 8. Both grant CA.]


Angered, the halfling and his lizards swarm the mage, attempting to bring him low. The lizard's attack draws blood from the wizard's back.

[Spring hits; MW bloodied. Doesn't look like Spring gains the benefits of spending the AP.]

Vok stands and glares at the Cyran, but can do little else while the fire burns him. Meanwhile, Bellegon calls down the dire of the darkness beneath the earth, the Cyran crying out in pain.

[Attack hits but CP not bloodied.]

The warforged pulls himself up and attempts to fell the mage, but the wily one hops over the sword. However, the flames sputters as his plating knits together.

[Attack misses. Warforged resolve grants save vs ongoing game which succeeds (rolled below)]

Ignore them! "Twinrose" hisses. We can't let this bastard get away! The hooked-nose Cyran orders her construct to attack as she presses forward. While he manages to parry the construct, he leaves himself open on the right for a cut by the Cyran and her lackey behind.

[ID moves and attacks Lord; misses. TR moves, attacks and hits; also allows ID to attack again (who misses). Lackey attacks and hits with CA]

The mage ignores his mistress as he his surrounded by foes. He pulls back, though Spring snaps at him, causing him to yell out in pain!

[MW recharges power. MW shifts away from Crush and Ryk, then moves, drawing OA from Spring. Hit for 10 (forgot that Crush's +3 doesn't apply).]

The other Cyran nods and circles Bellegon and Vok, but not before another dagger halfheartedly at the burning khoravar. It misses.

Lord ir'Haran wipes the blood from his wound and casually lops the head off of the lackey behind him while using his momentum to move away from his intrepid assassins. Just like your uncle, aren't you ir’Salara? Ready to turn on a moments notice? "Twinrose" screams incoherently at the taunt.

[Lord crits L4; drops her. Shifts 2 as part of attack.]

[pathfinderq1]

With an angry hiss far more suited to her feline form, Rikka shifted back to that shape. With no hesitation, she swatted at the dog-like construct, raking its metal skin and shoving it back off the platform. With no enemy in reach, she scampered along the back of the stage to the far corner.

[On Puget Sound]

Ryk sees the smoke begin to curl from the wizard's outstretched hand. he doesn't want to get hit by that blast again! K'kra, Spring! Get him! As the saurian bounds toward the mage, Ryk ducks behind a pillar and hurls his boomerang. His injuries cause his arm to stiffen and his aim goes awry. (to hit: 15, 10)

FREE: stow tangat on battle harness
MINOR: pick up dropped boomerang
MOVE: Ryk to J9 to gain cover from pillar, Spring to F3 to threaten MW.

OOC: Can anyone move Bellegon two squares left and one up? Or any other position that would make him equidistant from MW and ID? I'd curse them both then use cursebite. Rather then use move, then two actions and then AP to attack.

Vok moves next to his challenged foe and continues to engage the man. He manages to put out the flames as well.

Doesn't look like either Crush or Rikka have any such powers. Being the Leader & Controller, they'd be the ones that did.[/sblock]

 

[pacdidj]

Unwilling to let the flame-slinging mage out of his grasp, Crush hastily pushes himself up off the ground and hurls his handaxe. But, his overheated rotors betray him, throwing his aim far off.

[MetaVoid]

Bellegon moves closer to the fighting around the lord and flings his shadows toward the mage and ir’Salara. The darkness spreads as deathly energies from deep down seep into the world. Elven mage seems inoculated against drow magic, but the rest Bellegon cursed feel their life warmth leeched away.

[sblock=Actions]
Move: G7, shadow walk active
Minor: curse the mage
Minor: curse IR

AP: Cursebite vs Fort (MW; IR; CP); necrotic damage (1d20+7+2+1=14, 1d20+7=20, 1d20+7=23, 2d8+5=8) + curse damage (1d6=3) to mage if 14 hits else to CP - if CP is bloodied before this, add 2 to attack and 1 to damage; BAD, BAD rolls, I mean 2d8 = 3!!

If anyone gets bloodied by the attack or drops Bellegon's aura goes up (I would've hit them with my second rod for +3 to damage, but hadn't enough actions (maybe I should've waited for another round?)

Assassination! Round 5

Rikka shifts and leaps at the construct, savaging it and pushing it back. The halfling does not fare as well, his attacks missing while Spring harries the mage. Crush attempt to finish him, but the thrown axe hits a table instead.

The burning, bleeding Vok manages to press the retreating swordsman, drawing blood with an empowered strike. The burning dark elf flings his power and punishes Twinrose and her patriot ally.

[ID hit; MW missed twice; CP bloodied. Bellegon takes 5 ongoing at start of turn. I assume meant TR to curse (ir'Sarala/"Twinrose"). TW and CP hit. Bellegon's save: Fail (still on fire)]

The Cyran swordman swings on the approaching paladin, but Vok's weakening curse hinders the blow. Cursing her help's incompetence, Twinrose shouts, Finish him already! The Cyran cuts Vok's exposed sword arm then shifts away, his dagger hitting Vok in a chink in the khoravar's armor. Vok is barely standing.

[CP fails to recharge. Attacks Vok and misses (AC 23). Twinrose uses encounter power to force CP's recharge and allow him to attack again. Attacks w/ longsword and Hits (AC 27) for 5 and shifts two; throws dagger at Vok and hits (AC 28) for 5 more. ]

The mage, pressed by Spring, steps back and raises his fiery wand at the snapping clawfoot. It catches Spring and Bellegon both, knocking them aground and setting the lizard ablaze.

[MW shifts and uses recharged attack at G5 (burst 2): Hit both (Ref 19 Spring, Ref 27 Bellegon), 5 fire, knocked prone, and 5 ongoing (se).]

Twinrose and her construct press the Lord, the latter, bitting his leg hard, drawing further blood.

[Twinrose moves; Construct moves and attack's lord: Hits and does 6 damage. Lord "bloodied" bloodied (1/4 hp).]

ir'Haran, grimacing, turns briefly to Rikka's feline form. Her construct protects her. Be wary. He strikes at the iron form, but it absorbs the blow. Pulling something from his belt, he smashes it to the ground and vanishes!

[Lord quarry's construct; misses. Uses power to turn invisible.]
