Drowquest [4e] Raiding the Road (Hiatus)

[CaBaNa]

Once again Djaar harries the Goblin Chief. Taking a hard look before striking for the Goblin Chief's weak armor points.


[sblock=OOC]
Move to far side of GC (stealth)

Minor Perception check

13 to hit AC for 5 damage (does not include condition modifiers)

I'm not sure I understand who I am on the map, hence the vague move action. Once I start to get into the swing of things and understand the character better I'll be more help to the group. This is the first time I have played either a Drow or a Rogue or a Sorcerer. Open to suggestions.

Djaar[sblock]
you are represented by (Dr) and are at 95e70n on the map.
the goblin Chief (GC) just stepped away from you, but Vorgrym (V), a tempest fighter, may move to attack him before your initiative. Moving to flank with (V) may provoke from the goblin guard (g), unless someone kills it first.
[/sblock]
Tactics
[sblock]I would suggest if you can't get CA vs the chief, then kill the guard.(likely a minion)
Darkness will block all the other PCs, Darkfire would grant CA but is difficult to hit with due to the annoying purple fog. (-2 hit from your annoyance, -2 hit due to concealment)
[/sblock]
hope this helps

[sblock=thanks]
Thanks, Djaar will do just that, if he can get CA vs the GC he will attack GC and take the OA, using sneak attack damage. In the event of GC being reduced to 0hp or fewer, non-lethal damage. If no CA vs GC, strike the guard, non-lethal damage.

Sensing the tide in the battle is turning, Vorgrym moves to the side of the chief, hoping to set up a flank. The drow brings dagger around, catching the chiefs weapon as plunges his blade towards the chief's chest. The goblin is able to dodge out of the way at the last second though.

Raelyn moves to join Drisdhaun (OOC: move one square north of Dris) to give him some encouragement. "Drisdhaun, you are better than these goblins. You will not fall to them!" (OOC: Majestic Word on Dris - he spends surge and heals an additional 4 hp). "That's right, you heard me!" Raelyn shouts, somewhat redundantly (OOC vicious mockery misses).

Vorgrym’s stab leaves himself open, and at the shaman’s urging the goblin chief returns the blow. The distracting illusions from the previous round, saves the tempest from a vicious wound.

The Drow’s mental and emotional assaults have no obvious consequences, but Drisdhaun looks better. Javlix neatly scales the dragon statue and grabs hold of the Shaman.
While Drisdhaun weakly attacks the last guard.
Djaar shifts into flanking the goblin chief, but his dagger strikes nothing but mist.

The Goblin Chief yells up to the Shaman, Pull the cloud over to you!
He stabs Vorgrym then tries to retreat, shiftting and dashing to between the high dias and the statue (far enough to get cover from Raaelyn, Nashquiri and Drisdhaun.) As he moves he takes his eyes off Vorgrym, and receives a vicious wound. The flesh around the wound begins to blacken.

The goblin shaman shrieks and begins to beat Javlix with his rod, attempting to dislodge him from the statue. The shaman gets a lucky blow in and the Ranger’s eye swells up. But he has only enough attention to keep the cloud stationary, as he squirms in Javlix’s grasp. The spider chatters angrily as it fails to clear its vision.

The guard wounds Drisdhaun again, and your goblin guide dashes back over and tries to wack the guard, failing again.

OOC: [sblock] GC’s OA ac16@Vor.
Javlix Climb 11+7=18; Grab 13+3=16 ; Saereth sv 1

[DEFCON 1]

As the welt on his eye begins to swell, Javliex utters a curse under his breath. "That was the wrong thing to do, cretin!" He whistles once, and ushers Saereth a few steps to its right (Minor action to shift spider to 95,70) then with a yell, he grabs the goblin with both hands and tries to throw him off the statue... sending the goblin crashing down into the goblin chief directly below them. (Standard action: Move a grabbed target plus Athletics stunt: STR vs Fort to move a grabbed target, sending shaman into square 90,65 landing onto goblin chief for falling damage and/or knocking one/both goblins prone / Athletics stunt check for Javilex to remain holding onto statue and not fall with him)

If the shaman does indeed go flying off the statue and crashing down into the chief below him, Javliex quickly climbs down behind both of them. (Move action to 90,60)

 

[CaBaNa]

Djaar moves again against the Chief. Stalking toward the most advantageous attack position before striking.

Reflecting as he moves how this is always how his battles ended, him covered in blood, wounded and barely moving, but his opponent laying motionless. Djaar flashes back, moments during suicide missions, hearing his superiors give the orders, expecting no return.

Clearing his mind, Djaar strikes the Goblin Chief, making every effort to twist his blade toward the inferior beings heart.

[sblock=OOC]
Djaar,
move to flank with Javilex, I don't know where Javilex will be positioned yet.

Standard Piercing Strike on GC 20 to hit reflex for 8 damage (22 to hit with CA and add 5 sneak attack damage)

[EvolutionKB]

Vorgrym moves out of the damning mist and confronts the goblin chieftan again. "Why do you run? Are you afraid yet?" The drow thrusts once again with his short sword, and grabs ahold of the goblin's shirt.
The chief evades his clumsy attack and slips from his grasp.

[sblock=Actions]Move to 95, 65 and use footwork lure. Miss again. Roll Lookup

[Phaezen]

Drisdhaun lashes out wildly at the goblin with snakelike motions, missing, he then looks around assesing the situation.
