Scotley's 4e Swashbuckler

OOC: Uhhh, what page of the PH details firearms? Sounds like a Scotley question to me, which is what I guess you meant in the first place. Sorry. Somebody should get pantsed anyway, as long as it's not Manous.

OOC: My questions are always open to be answered by anyone. Assuming they know the answer! :)

OOC: well, going out on a limb here, Scotley has in the past treated firearms like heavy crossbows as far as things like this go, so that would make them Load Minor items in 4E.

(OOC - Okay, I'll assume the wolf is still standing after Manous' attack. If not, I will have to edit this action.)

The goblin wolf finds itself in perhaps the worst place in the world; pinned between two trained fencers who know how to exploit the openings a flanked foe has no choice but to have. As it snarls and wheels about on Manous to repay him for his hit, Tabitha instantly lunges; striking with pinpoint precision at the beast's ribs...hoping to slip the narrow blade through and pierce its heart!

Atk 24; 16 damage + 4 sneak attack damage.

Hero
Malkyr steps forward to join the melee with the gigantic wolf. His rapier easily the beasts hide and strikes deep. This blow proves to be the end for the beast.

Lucien skillfully reloads his flintlock, quickly targeting the nearest goblin (G6). The report of the gun echoes through the air as he fires, but the round strikes a tree instead of the goblin and sends slivers of wood spraying into the air.

Manous and Tabitha find themselves surrounding a dead foe and must consider the goblins instead.

OOC: New actions from Manous, Tabitha (feel free to keep your roll), Ali and Wilhelm please. I am sorry to have so little to post after such a long hiatus.

Manous is a "Barbarian Indian" type who was born in the recently discovered "America," but was brought back to "France" as a very small boy (about 12/13?) by a sea captain as an oddity to be widely displayed and poked and prodded by various folks. Then said waif was seen by a Duchess and her heart went out to the poor lad, so she adopted him and had him trained/schooled by the best Masters in the land, and given very much religious instruction in the 'accepted' faith. Ultimately, young Manous became a Paladin, but he still looks very unusual, having been copiously tattooed by his people and subjected to the body modifications of his tribe. I'm thinking Manous's entire body is tattooed with geometric patterns and star charts, his earlobes have been greatly pierced with objects of ever-increasing size during his early childhood, so he has great flapping "rings" of flesh hanging from his ears. Manous Artouche also has a row of "earrings" around his navel (navel rings?) (but he keeps that covered most of the time), and he also has a "bone in his nose." (Not a real bone, but a ring of brass much like a bull.)

So Manous looks like a total freak, except when he is shrouded in his Paladin's armor, at which time he is indistinguishable from any other knight of the realm, but he is always unswervingly loyal to his benefactor the Duchess, and he is as faithful to his new religion as anyone in "France." Now, the Duchess is on the outs with the mainstream of nobility in "France" because she resisted the amorous intentions of the Prince, and he ruined her socially once he got over
the rejection. She may have even been exiled to "Scotland" or wherever, but Manous Artouche was undergoing his tutelage at that time and had to stay behind in "France" with the Duchess's cousin, Grand Duke Siegfried von Koln, who was (as it happens) the boy's Paladin Instructor. Now Siegfried, once Manous was fully trained and set out on the proper path of Paladinhood, fell
victim to temptations of the flesh possibly brought about by arcane mind control, and he wound up as an Anti-Paladin. [Built-in future BBEG!] His fall from Paladinhood finished off the Duchess's family's fall from grace and they are all wanted/hunted/shot on sight, and their vast holdings have mostly been confiscated by the throne. Manous Artouche does, arguably, still have a valid, legal claim to at least a portion of the Duchess's family holdings, since he was
legally adopted by the Duchess before her downfall.

Tabitha keeps moving, trying to flank a goblin with someone and striking out with her rapier!

(Keeping my roll, moving to flank someone with a shift...I can't load the map for some reason, so just pick a likely target? :))
