[QUOTE="JimAde, post: 2771755, member: 16739"] Lucas makes his way over the smashed wreckage of the bridge into the newly-revealed passage. He sees that it is actually just a short cave about 20 feet deep, with no apparent exits. He also sees several web-wrapped forms suspended from the ceiling. One or two of them twitch weakly, but most are still. But what siezes his attention is the biggest goblin he has ever seen. Taller than Lucas himself, and hideously disfigured, the creature raises its hands before it and shouts a spell Lucas recognizes before rushing up to the wizard. [Color=Red]Spellcraft check 7+17=24 to recognize Shocking Grasp. Of course the fat blue sparks trailing from its hand are a bit of a giveaway as well. :) The "Goblin" (almost certainly an aranea in hybrid form) is in melee range to Lucas, but can't attack this round because he cast the spell already.[/Color] Erethinol nimbly strikes at her bugbear foe, slashing him soundly across the arm, then skewering him straight through the gut! [Color=Red]Attack roll 11+10=21, hit, damage 5+5+1(Bull's Strength)=11, second attack 20! confirmatio roll 1 (bummer). Damage 7+5+1=13. 24 damage total. He's staggerd, but still on his feet.[/Color] Girble steps boldly forward and the waiting bugbears take swipes at him as he approaches. One misses badly, but the other scores a solid blow, rocking the little priest back on his heels. Girble shakes off the blow and returns it heartily. [Color=Red]One bugbear gets a big miss. The other hits for 9 points off your temporary HP. Girble's attack roll 18+13=31, big hit. Damage 4+2=6[/Color] The cave suddenly resounds with the impact of Sirius's boots as he drops from the ceiling and lands solidly ready to attack! [Color=Red]I gave you an untrained Tumble check (I know that's not normally allowed, but for this purpose I do allow it). Tumble check 19+1-5=15. Makes it! No damage from the fall. Hate to do this but I have to run to a meeting! I'll post the bugbears' actions tonight. [/Color] [/QUOTE]
