Q'Barra: Into the Emerald Forest

[Harvey]

Erin (HP 20/27)

Erin winces from the pain of the slash, but forgets it as she marvels at Xavier's acrobatic prowess in dispatching the Rierdan that sliced at her. Feeling confidant in Xavier's skills as a fighter, Erin turns on another Rierdan in melee, swinging her enchanted morningstar at the attacker.

OOC: Erin attacks the foe at L9. Attack Attack 1d20 + 6 + 1 (bless) + 2 (bane humans) = 27. Damage 1d8 + 2 + 1 (courage) + 2d6 (bane) = 15 points.

'he has no name' warforged warrior

'he has no name' notices that both Sanae and Xavier are wounded to some degree.

"Spear! We really could use your help here!"

The warforged was thinking exactly the same thing. He glances at Ef Flat to confirm he will be allright, and bounds forwards for the barge. Once on the barge he pauses only long enough to draw his sword before he launches himself straight towards Kajalaketh and anyone who stands between the two of them.

ooc: Or maybe he doesn't. Climb (1d20+2=3). If he doesn't get up this round, he'll try again the next. He was attempting to through to Kajalaketh and force the rest of the soldiers to surrender.

Just in case: Attack w/sword (1d20+6=17), Damage (1d8+3=4)

Old Borden, male human Clr4

Borden remembers his prayers that morning, as usual, he asked the Gods for the power to heat enemy weapons and armour with the heat of the Sun. Now he channels all that energy, making his hand glow with positive power.

He reaches the edge of the boat and tries to touch Sanae´s tigh, trying to infuse her with the curative power, even as he mumbles a prayer to the Host, may they break Kajalaketh´s will so he would stand frozen in place.

ooc= Boden converts "Heat Metal" to a cure spell, curing 2d8+5 = 13 HP

Conflict on the river, round four

Sanae struggles against the barrage of conflicting ideas crawling through her brain, heedless of the fact that she is being burned by the barrier of electricity that surrounds her. Kajalaketh struggles mightily against Borden’s magic, causing him to lose concentration on his mental assault against Sanae, but to no avail – the will of the Sovereigns still holds him motionless.

Xavier is a blur of motion, seeming to melt between the blades of the soldiers, only to bring his own to bear in deadly fashion. The soldier falls, clutching at his newly opened throat. The soldier’s companion strikes back, but Xavier parries the blow with almost contemptuous ease. Erin is not as successful at warding off her opponent’s attack. As she turns to face a new soldier, the Riedran swings beneath her whirling morningstar, catching the the back of her leg in another deep cut. He overextends himself however, and is not able to pull back before Erin brings her weapon crashing down into his skull. He will not make that mistake, or any other, again.

Finding his way blocked by Borden, ‘he has no name’ attempts to scramble up the side of the patrol boat. His leap carries him nearly to the rail, but he falls just short and begins to slide down towards the lapping river waters. The warforged warrior thinks that if he drops his sword he might be able to get enough of a grip to avoid falling into the murky water below.

Borden makes his way slowly up the rope ladder. From the top, he can just reach Sanae to deliver his healing touch. Although he tries to avoid the shimmering blue ring surrounding the paladin, it sends out angry tendrils of electricity almost like a living creature, burning the elderly priest deeply. He shrieks with pain as the divine energy he was attempting to channel disperses uselessly.

Initiative Order
Eff Flat 16
Sanae 16
Kajalaketh 12
Xavier 10 (higher DEX)
Soldiers 10
‘he has no name’ 8
Borden 3
Soldier (held action) 1
Erin 1

Sanae takes another 4 hp damage from the energy barrier. She will be able to act normally next round, but is still surrounded by the energy barrier.

Xavier and Erin both slay their opponents, but Erin takes 7 hp damage before her target falls. There is only one soldier left alive on the patrol boat.

‘he has no name’ can make another climb check with a -4 penalty if he keeps his sword or normal if he drops it. If he fails this check, he will fall into the river. If he succeeds, he will make it to the deck at G9, H9, or I9 (his choice).

Borden takes 14 hp damage from the energy barrier. He fails his concentration check and loses the spell.

OOC: Hey Urko, above you mention that Erin was hit a second time, but you don't specify later how badly. Can you let me know how many HP she's down from that swing?

 

[Urko]

Whoops! My oversight - it was 7 hp. I will edit the above post accordingly.

 

[Pebele]

Sanae Round Five

As Sanae's thoughts cleared, she realized just how dire the current situation was. She quickly sized up her barrier then bowed her head and placed her left hand over her heart. She focused intently, chanelling her faith inward to mend her wounds.

"By the guidance of the Silver Flame, give me strength to continue this fight..." She uttered the words softly as she felt the healing powers course through her.

Feeling slightly rejuvenated, Sanae set her jaw and forced her way through the blue barrier, only stopping when she had a clear line of sight between herself and Kajalaketh. She held her sword at ready and prepared to carry out the threat she had made earlier.

Sanae is using her Lay on Hands ability to heal 8 hp to herself, then moving through the barrier to J7.

Urko, can you clarify whether or not Kajalaketh is armed please?

 

[Yeoman]

Perhaps emboldened by the fall of his opponent or perhaps flashing back to his service in the war, Xavier turns towards Kalajeketh bellowing "It's time for you to die! For Cyre!" as he breaks into a run towards his foe preparing to finish him with a powerful lunge.


Xavier charges Kalajeketh, finishing his charge at F6 and attacking Kalajeketh. I only rolled damage for a normal hit, so if it is a critical I'll let you handle it. I used the wrong formatting for the initial attack roll, but the numbers added up correctly.
Xavier used an action point on the attack roll.
Xavier's AC lowers by 2 from the charge, and increases by 1 from his skirmish ability.

Attack Roll 29, Critical Threat
Threat Confirmation, 16
7 Damage (Non Critical Hit)

Erin (HP 13/27)

Erin watches in dread as she fells her opponent. By the host, why is it that I'm always surrounded by death? She forces these thoughts from her head as she sees Sanae and Xavier head towards Kajalaketh, and turns to deal with the last attacker. "Why? Why attack us? We've done nothing to you!" She swings her morningstar at the lone soldier.

OOC: Erin attacks the foe at L8. Attack 1d20 + 6 + 1 (bless) + 2 (bane humans) = 20. Damage 1d8 + 2 + 1 (courage) + 2d6 (bane) = 14 points.

 

[Urko]

Clarification

Sanae: Kajalaketh is carrying a scimitar, similar to the ones his soldiers have, but he has not yet drawn it.
