Catastrophe!

[Son of Meepo]

OOC: I thought Dina was after the monsters. I'm pretty sure they ended up getting 2 sets of actions before Dina gets her first turn.

 

[VanderLegion]

OOC: Same with Sha'kar. It shoulda been Ignatz and Corragan, then the monsters, then me in the surprise round. After the surprise round it was Ignatz, Corragan, and TCO since they had higher initiative. Now it should be the monsters again, then all of us, then the monsters, etc, etc. We've only gotten thorugh the surpirse round and Ignatz, Corragan and TCOs initial round actions, so it should be all the monsters now

OOC: Oh well fine then! Don't take advantage of my extreme sickness, business, an inability to figure out what the heck is going on in my own notes! LOL. Thanks for being honest guys. I'll give you guys an update tomorrow when I'm at work. Unfortunately, I have a programming exam to work on, on top of having to meet a programming partner at school (stupid peer programming...). See you guys soon, and thanks for all of your patience and understanding with this first time PBP DM!!

The Cursed One sends out divine energies, trapping all of his foes' attention. However, it seems that without having encountered such a thing before, the kruthik workers did not heed The Cursed One's sanctioned warning not to attack his allies. When the thrashing of the workers was focused on Dina, drawing a line of blood from a ragged leg wound, there is a flash of radiant light that causes one of the kruthik to jump to the side. The other kruthik is entirely to mind boggled to notice the tendrils of smoke wafting up from his body.

While the workers focused their attention on Dina, the soldiers focused their attention on The Cursed One. Skittering backward and whipping his tail once more, the soldier closest to The Cursed One sent barbed spikes flying through the air at both The Cursed One and at Sha'kar. For once, it seems that the void genasi was in the wrong place at the right time, and both targets are pierced with toxic spikes. They can feel the poison working its way toward their hearts, numbing their lower extremities and threatening to shut down their organs.

The other soldier attempts to whip its tail at The Cursed One as well, but when nothing comes out, it decides to charge headlong into the fray with his divine tormentor. The soldier's heavy carapace clashes with The Cursed One's heavy armor, and a sharp claw slashes The Cursed One's hip. However, the magical assistance of The Cursed One's blade ensures that the wound is only superficial.

GM: Having the condition symbols over the entire token is making it hard to identify who is who on the map. Can you add the location of each PC and monster to the status?

As one of the Kruthik workers manages to hit Dina with an attack, Sha'kar launches a bolt of lightning at the creature, leaving it badly wounded. He then turns and throws a healing infusion to Dina followed by an enchantment for her armor - launching another bolt of lightning at the creature, leaving it charred and smoking. Finally he tosses another infusion toward the Cursed One.[sblock="actions"]Immediate Interrupt: When KW7 damages Dina - Shocking feedback, barely hit for 18 lightning damage. Dina gains 5 resist all until the end of shakar's next turn

OOC: I have updated the map above (zoomed in a bit and made the statuses be corner images. Let me know if this is not sufficent enough to determine where you are and I'll update with player/monster coordinates.

 

[Son of Meepo]

OOC: Much better... Hmm, I was going to have Ignatz charge KW7. Because he's slowed, it was the only one he could reach. Is there something else Sha'kar can attack instead? I'm at a loss for anything else to do that is anywhere near as effective as Provocative Order. I don't think anyone else is a useful target for that power. (Corragan has a decent basic attack, but it's an implement attack, so the +1[W] damage from PO would be lost), and TCO would have to provoke an OA to charge something.

 

[Son of Meepo]

OOC: Meh, nevermind. I'll just wait until Ignatz goes and then attack with him depending on what's left after his turn.

 

[WEContact]

OOC: Ignatz used Shrug It Off as an immediate interrupt last round when he was inflicted with that poison. He failed the save it granted him, but he passed the save at the end of his turn, so unless he got poisoned again last round and I overlooked it, Ignatz is not slowed. Also I'll be at work unable to take my turn for the next eight hours or so.
