Gnurl Whiskerling hp76/76,AC23,ActvSpells:GtMagArm,SeeInvis

Mingo is in the chair at I9 or another chair, perhaps sharing with Gnurl. There don't seem to be enough chairs for all the characters.

[sblock=FYI]Gnurl is NOT sharing a chair with Mingo, or anybody else, for that matter![/sblock]

Initiative (1d20 7=23)

Seeing his friends drawing weapons, Finn goes ahead and draws the pistol, before grabbing one side of the curtains opposite Anson. "On three, all right? One... two..."

OOC: BTW, is anyone besides me having problems with EnWorld sending them their weekly updates? I haven't gotten anything from them since May 6th. Also, I can't change my thread viewing options from the thread defaults. I used to view threads at 50 posts per page, now all I get is 15. Makes it a lot harder to track down a post as I have to go through more pages. /OOC

OOC: I've heard the weekly updates are hit and miss. The thread options have been fixed at 15, which is indeed very annoying, but it does seem to have helped the performance of the boards, which is the reason it was done. Don't forget I need your AC, HP and spells or psi powers currently active.

Off to Consult

Finally rousing himself from his thoughts Geoffrey comments "Well best be prepared in case unwelcome guests are calling" as he readies his mace.

[sblock=Geoffrey]You didn't pick a spot, so I put you in the chair opposite the desk, feel free to tell me Geoffrey is elsewhere. [/sblock]

Seeing his friends drawing weapons, Finn goes ahead and draws the pistol, before grabbing one side of the curtains opposite Anson. "On three, all right? One... two...three" Finn pulls the curtain back and a large inhuman face is in the window. Suddenly it vanishes and there is a sudden feeling of pressure as numerious creatures appear in the room at virtually the same time.

The large creatures seem to have goblinoid faces and hands, but are otherwise more lupine in nature. The exception is the huge goblinoid wielding a massive bastard sword from the back of an enoumous dire wolf. He looks like a bugbear grown to giant size. The wolf is the size of an elephant. The big guys head is inches from the 20' ceiling in the room. One of the ones facing H'Roosh (3) has a large shield and a wickedly spiked morning star. The one near the fireplace has a bow and wears a buckler.

The young scribe scrambles up a ladder that leans against one of the towering book shelves while the Balmal ducks behind his desk and looks aprasingly at the newcomers. The creatures prepare to attack you.

OOC: Most of the bad guys are AC 18, except the big guy who is AC30, three who is AC 20 while six is AC 19. Those of you who wish can make any or all of the following skill checks--Knowledge the planes, Knowledge Religion, Knowledge Arcane and Spellcraft. Please post AC, spells/psi powers active and current hp in your next post. You have initiative, actions?

Finn Hunter

OOC: Finn had brush activated an Inertial Armor tattoo just before he began counting, bringing his AC to 20. He is at full health (43 HP) but has spent 10 power points during the day (31 PP). The pistol is one loaded with an Alchemical Silver ball. /OOC

Finn shoots (1d20+9=22) the closest opponent in response to their sudden appearance. (Damage , plus add whatever effect silver will have on these things) (1d6 1=4) He drops the pistol and spends his second action drawing his rapier.

Gnurl immediately casts Force Missiles on the creature adjacent to him, #5. Two sparkling bolts of blue magic, like giant magic missiles, streak from Gnurl's hand and unerringly strike creature #5. When they hit the creature, the bolts burst into jagged shards of magical energy, and the shards pierce the Great Wolf and its rider.

[sblock=Gnurl's Spell]Gnurl's action is to cast Force Missiles (4th level spell) targeted on #5. Caster Level check, in case Resistance to Magic is present: 21 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1611309/

H'Roosh (AC: 22; HP: 72)

In spite of the warning given by his companions actions, H'Roosh appears somewhat startled by the sudden appearance of the monstrous creatures and confused as to their origins. He recovers himself enough to deliver a flurry of blows at the morning star wielding bad guy, but his lack of surety in the face of the sudden attack hampers his aim.
