[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6308123, member: 6747658"] [b]Round 2 Stables Battle[/b] Hawk lashes out, her sword biting into one of the stirges and cutting it not-so-neatly in two. The two halves come to earth and writhe for a few seconds before fully expiring. Driven by the primal urge to feed, the surviving flying vermin battle on. The one that had been previously knocked off-balance by Bubba attempts to right itself, and the feisty canine seizes upon the opportunity to snap at it, mangling it even more severely than the first victim. However, the other beast flitting around Cruendithas narrowly avoids a blob of flying acid thanks the the chaos of the melee, but fails to land on the gnomish treasure seeker to draw yet more nourishment. Just nearby, Wahyu summons his inner will and casts a magical spell. Smoke issues forth, and the giant mosquito quickly detaches itself from the wayang's arm and beats a hasty retreat over the roofline of the stable in a desperate effort to put as much distance between itself and the oracle. Meanwhile, Dunkel's attacker proves more capable, and the little monster clamps on, stabbing deep into him and drawing up yet more blood. Having gotten a second draught from the beefy dwarf, it's body starts to turn ever brighter shades of red. Somewhere, over the stable, what was previously screaming has quieted down to a quieter, incomprehensible crying. It becomes more and more difficult to hear as the giant birds inside the stable fidget and peck, trying to remove or kill the tiny winged predators attached to them, with limited success. One more insect is killed, but the rest all merrily continue gorging themselves. [sblock=combat stuff] Stirge 5 flies away under effect of fear. Stirge 6 misses Cruendithas. Stirge 3 grapples Dunkel and drains another point of CON. Stirge 8: DEAD (mangled by Bubba) Stirge 7: DEAD (bisected by Hawk) Stirge 6: 2/5 hp - Flitting about Cruendithas Stirge 5: 5/5 hp - Flying away Stirge 4: DEAD (Bubba's second victim) Stirge 3: 5/5 hp - Grappling Dunkel Stirge 2: DOWN (mortally wounded by Jonas' whistle) Stirge 1: DEAD (cleaved by Dunkel) AC/touch AC = 16 (12 while grappling) CMD = 9 Mystie: 34/34 hp Hawk: 26/26 hp Wahyu: 14/14 hp, -1 CON Cruendithas: 16/16 hp, -1 CON Dunkel: 9/9 hp, -2 CON, Grappled by Stirge 3 Joren: 10/10 hp Jonas: 31/31 hp (Rawhide: 13/13 hp, -1 CON) Note: Reductions in max hp due to CON loss are accounted for. Note: The low walls leading into the stable with the giant birds are easy to get across. Just pay 1 extra square of movement. Alternatively, Acrobatics DC 12 will let you avoid paying this extra cost entirely. I think we're all on the same page now. [COLOR=#00ff00][B]Whole party is up.[/B][/COLOR][/sblock] [sblock=Map]Note: The stirge in Mystie/Bubba's square has been eliminated, so I just x'd it out.
