[LPF] Guard Duty

[mazzoli]

Thiera looks back to the nearby party members and mimes talking to the potential pirates. She then gives them a questioning look as if to ask "Are we going to try talking to them?"

She clearly wants to try to get out of this without having to go through the decidedly unpleasant experience of shooting anybody else.

Thiera's wish is, unfortunately, not to be. The half orc suddenly notices the group and yells something out in orc as he dashes up toward them with blood in his eyes and his claw like hands out to attack. The sylph responds by chanting something as she also moves forward, and a ball of fire appears in her hand. The half elf steps back as he pulls out a bow, and fires a shot off at the rat. The arrow misses, but a longspear from behind the corner also takes a jab at the rat and easily lands a blow on the surprised rodent. Thiera also sees a human moving forward toward the ledges on the south side of the cave. Sana is the first to react, letting loose a grease spell on the south side to prohibit easy attacks from that side, but the one pirate that had already made it that far managed to avoid it's effects, at least for now.

[sblock=orc]Kill them, there must be no witnesses. Why didn't you fools say something sooner? When we get back to the ship, hope I don't have you keel hauled.[/sblock]

OOC: HP are corrected; MD can get to either E or F 43 before he draws an aoo from the half orc pirate.

 

[Satin Knights]

As is his nature, the cattaur charges and pounces on the half orc pirate that had made it up to the higher ground. Both claws tear through the flesh causing serious wounds. "They want to kill us! Not Likely!" as he comes up flinging the blood of his opponent.

[Systole]

[sblock=ooc]My bad. I thought that was the half-elf with the bow at E42, so MD could run around him without an AoO. MD will go to E43.[/sblock]

 

[sunshadow21]

Cavernous moves to intercept the pirate trying to climb up, and though his attack is unsuccessful, he does get a scowl from the man who was trying to sneak behind the party. He, and all of the others, can see as the pirates get closer, that they are all already somewhat beat up to begin with, with the exception of the sylph, who Thiera saw putting a wand away just as she was getting into position, and the ranger is able to guess that the wand was probably a healing wand. Tasanto charges forward at the half orc, as does Mister Dickens, and while the rat fails to do anything, the cattaur rips into the feral looking half-orc (almost as feral as the cattaur, with claws on his hands) who snarls in anger, but remains defiant.

OOC: Waiting on Rhydius and Thiera to finish the round.

 

[Rhydius]

Following behind Cavernous Hode, Rhydius fires a shot at the pirate as he scowls away at the dwarf.

[mazzoli]

Thiera announces for the benefit of those who don't speak Orc, "They're going to try to kill us before heading back to their ship! We might want to capture one of them and find out where the ship is and what their plans are."

With that she lets fly an arrow at one of the pirates.

[sblock=Actions]If possible, fire at the sylph over the rocks. If not, move to H41 and fire at E42.[/sblock]

[sunshadow21]

Rhydius and Thiera both fire off arrows, but only Thiera is able to hit her target.

On the pirate's side, the half orc rips into his foe with claws and teeth, and the cattaur seems to flicker for a few brief moments as the magic that bonds summoner and eidolon is strained by the successful attacks. The sylph just looks irritated, and apparently in a move designed to get the others to fight harder, lights the grease from Sana's spell on fire with a blast of the fire surrounding her hand before retreating behind the column, lighting that entire step on fire, and forcing the human up onto the higher ledge, which he actually somehow manages to do without giving the dwarf waiting for him an opening. Once up there, he manages to hit the dwarf with a well made scimitar, and draws blood. The half elf tries to fire off a shot at Thiera before moving to a spot that he hopes will provide protection from both the cattaur and the archer above, but he fails to get the right angle, and it bounces harmlessly off the rocks in front of her. The halfling moves around to a defensive position himself, drawing a curse from the half-orc and a smirk from the sylph; meanwhile, another longspear is half heartedly jabbed between the rocks at Thiera, but doesn't even come close as the halfling wielding it is clearly more not interested in doing much more than putting up appearances.

Sana moves to help Cavernous, and is able to just barely drive her magically charged dagger into a soft spot of the pirate's armor, causing a fair bit of damage.

[sblock=round 2]

The grease square is now on fire. There is also a halfling in J-45 that I forgot to make visible to the party before exporting the map.
