[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6309736, member: 6747658"] [b]Round 3 Stables Battle[/b] Shouts and calls continue from other parts of the stables area as the group works to battle off the stirges in their immediate vicinity. No longer can specific concentrations of the flying beasts be seen--they have either engaged in combat or flitted out of sight. Few of the blood sucking creatures remain in sight: one is slowly flying upward and away from Dunkel after taking a serious electrical burst of energy from Joren, one falls to the ground after a second acid blob hits it from Cruendithas, and two stirges inside the stable are splattered by mighty blows from Jonas and Hawk, ingested blood flying as they are cut apart in mere seconds. One of the flightless birds helps itself, beak digging into its attacker and crushing it, leaving only one left drawing blood. Having been freed of nasty vermin, the two exotic mounts seem rather agitated and frightened, but neither take aggressive action against Jonas or Hawk. The bird in one of the center stalls is preoccupied with pecking the blighter on it's back… unsuccessfully. As one of the stirges flies away in fear, Wahyu unlimbers his crossbow and loads it. However, as he brings the weapon to his shoulder to aim, the bug slips beneath the roofline and out of sight. Through the open door of the stable (to the north), Jonas and Hawk hear a thud, as if a sack of potatoes was dropped to the ground from waist height. Cruendithas hears it as well, although very faintly. [sblock=Combat Stuff]Stirge 6 falls to ground. Stirge 3 shifts one square upward (still in reach). Stirge 5 disappears over the roofline. Stirge 8: DEAD (mangled by Bubba) Stirge 7: DEAD (bisected by Hawk) Stirge 6: DOWN (more acid from Cruendithas) Stirge 5: 5/5 hp (location unknown) Stirge 4: DEAD (Bubba's second victim) Stirge 3: 0/5 hp (shocked by Joren and flying upward slowly) 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) [COLOR=#00ff00][B]Whole Party May Move[/B][/COLOR] Notes: (1) Reductions in max hp due to CON loss are accounted for. (2) A -4 penalty applies for Cruendithas shooting the stirge under attack from Bubba (sans Precise Shot), but he hit anyway. (3) I would have not had any problems if Dunkel had tried to axe his stirge to death, even if attached. (4) In the interest of keeping things moving, I called the round to a close and let the monsters move. I had Wahyu draw and load his crossbow with his action. I hope that is acceptable.[/sblock] [sblock=updated map][ATTACH=CONFIG]62022._xfImport[/ATTACH][/sblock] [/QUOTE]
