S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Gold

First Post
Inside the Steading

As he watches the others do nothing with the gong-ringer, the warforged picks up the large club and hurls it into the woods.

"There. Now they will have to use their hands if they want to bang a gong."

The group then converges upon the stairs -- Void and Domoris at the front, and the others following behind, doing their best to remain somewhat silent.

You slowly walk down the large stairs, taking great pains to move quietly and avoid anything that might be laying upon them.

Void and Domoris reach the bottom first, and Void shows the jungle hunter, via hand signals, the sleeping giant he saw to his left.

He turns around the corner and spies the giant, sitting in an alcove.

The giant, clad in various hides and skins, lies sleeping on a large chair, tilted back against the wall, so that only two of the four legs remain in contact with the ground. By his feet lies a crude hide-bag, and a large ceramic plate lies next to his chair, laden with several large bones with bits of meat still attached. A large, even for a giant, tankard of ale lies in his right hand, and his greatclub is leaning against his chair.

The others start to appear from the staircase -- unfortunately, Dreadnought loses concentration for a moment and his foot knocks into one of the plates that lie on the last few steps -- he doesn't send it flying across the room, but does make an audible "ding".

The others around the warforged send him dirty looks, in which he can only shrug his shoulders.

You think you heard something -- a voice making some grunting noise, something akin to a sleepish "hurh?" come from somewhere behind you, as you face the sleeping giant.

And so it begins.... :devil: :)

Refer to this map, posted earlier for Void. I'll try and get a more updated one with the entire groups tokens (and giant) added this evening, before I've had too much wine. :)

Giant is in the area of BZ21, and is a size large creature.

Hudder gets a strange little smile on his face at the sight of a sleeping giant. As quietly as he can, he whispers to the others: "Think we can all be gettin close enough for a coupe de grace at the same time?" Then he closes the 20ft to the giant and hefts his axe over his shoulder in both hands, winding up for a huge strike. He looks back at the others and nods to them to take up similar poasitions around the guard, pointing with his chin.

You don't see anything immediately behind you, but you get the impression that the giant in front of you didn't make the noise you heard -- you are certain it came from behind you, either from the north or around to the east of the stairwell.

Domoris growls faintly behind him, as if he heard something. He looks at the others in warning but stays near their current prey, waiting for with the others to strike a killing blow at once.

Dori will follow his cousin's lead, draw his blade and step next to the giant. He'd been waiting a long time for this and now his training had culminated to this moment, not quite as heroic as he was hoping for, but at least it was giant killing.

[sblock=ooc]
So a Coup-de-grace is a full round action, this turn he'll draw his blade and stand next to the giant.
Dori's contribution is:
damage; holy damage (1d8 4=10, 2d6=4) so 24 damage plus giant needs to make a fort save DC 34 or die

Hudder and Dori take their positions, then heft their weapons over their heads, bringing deadly blades to bear upon the helpless giant.

Both strike true, and destroy vital bodily organs, causing instant death.

As the giant slumps in his chair, the weight redistribution causes the chair to wobble for a second, before flying out, skittering upon the floor towards the opposite wall, creating a loud "Thud".

Domoris and the gith just turn the corner around the staircase when they hear this noise behind them.

From their right, far up ahead, they hear a startled voice, followed by some snippet of language.

[sblock=Giant]
"Hurn -- ya finally drink too much?"

OOC: Will post updated map tonight, hopefully.
