OOC - wysiwyg

There's something funny with Invisible Castle's rolls. I'm getting weird results. I'm trying to roll 1d20+1 and 1d6+3 for both attacks.
I'm getting something that looks like this: Roll Lookup
What does this mean?
Just to speed things along, HM why don't you make the rolls for me. Basically he is using his Flurry of Strikes against the vine.
Attack: 1d20+1
Damage: 1d6+3

Multiple dice rolls on IC should be separated by a semi-colon ";". However, it looks like you have used a comma ",". Anyway looks like the rolls are 18+1 and 5+3. If you ask HM nicely he may let you keep them.

Trinham - Round 3

Although Trinham is loathed to use up his scarce magical resource, he is even more reluctant to move into the area of heaving grass. Therefore after another sharp word and gesture a ball of light streaks from his finger and strikes the vine.

[sblock=wysiwyg] that was weird I will roll for you but not this round you are at 1/2 movement so takes two move actions to wade through the grass and get to the tree next round or if you wish to change actions your call [/sblock]

[sblock]Right. Um... [/sblock]
Athos was about to step towards the vine when a tendril flicked against his ankle trying to entangle him. He quickly steps back searching for anything that can be thrown at the vine instead. And hurt it too.

"This will be the final straw, you demon of the earth!" Hralfgar closes to swing at the tree. His blade rises high, the moonlight gleaming off the blade of the longsword. It falls viciously on the tree, cutting through its branches and making firewood out of it yet. Hralfgar roars with a mighty rumble as he cuts at the living earth demon.

Round 3 action

"Hello?(hello? hello?-echos)" a voice ehoes up from the cavern floor. "Can anyone help?(help? help?)"

As Martomum hangs over the cliff Hralfgar, Trinham, and Damon attack the tree. The magic enery strikes true and Hralfgar cuts a good three fit from the end of the thrashing fine. Damon attacks tentively and misses the vine. Athos and Greyhey look on from almost 30 ft away on the other side of the whirling grasses as the vine lashes out again at Hralfgar and misses . As they hear the voice they both look at each other unsure they truly heard anything. "Help(help help)" the voice comes again. They nod at each other to confirm they did hear something at that.

Athos - Round 3

Failing to immediately find anything that can be used against the vine, Athos sheathes his blade and makes his way towards the carniverous treelike creature. "We're coming just hold on", he screams to the voice below.

[sblock]Drawing his sword and taking a double move action to reach the vine.
IT SHOULD SAY ROUND 4. Made a mistake[/sblock]

Trinham - Round 4

OOC:
This action is dependent on the twin assumptions that the vine is still alive and that Trinham heard the voice. If either of these are wrong, I will amend the post accordingly.

IC
Trinham is not falling for the distraction. During his magic training, he was told how magic can be used to project a voice and make it appear to be coming from somewhere where its not. So, with yet another word and gesture, his final missile streaks towards the vine.

In a final mighty swoop Hralfgar summons all his trength into the final chop with his sword. The tree splinters apart and falls in half. Hralfgar pounces upon his fallen foe and sends out a blodd curdling roar that strikes fear into any onlookers. "Fallen you have! Again the Drakar is victorious! May your fertile body be wood for teh fires that burn with in the Great Halls! To the Dwarf," Hralfgar refocuses, "he is in need of help NOW! Follow me!" Hralfgar steps off the fire wood and makes cautious way towards the Dwarf with his companions.

End of combat

The fire from the "dragon's breath" attack slowly grow as the flames consume more of the tree reveiling the bright green vine twisted around it's trunk. The small branches and leaves give off a great light as the flames shoot towards the top of the tree.

As Athos and Greyhay start to wade towards the tree through the grabbing, clinging grass, Hralfgar seeing his enemy clearly and starts to chop at the vines base. Pulling his foot free a second time from the grass Athos nearly falls as the grass lets go so easily, the waving motion of the tall grass also stops dead and Hralfgar let's out a roar. "Fallen you have! Again the Drakar is victorious! May your fertile body be wood for the fires that burn within the Great Halls! To the Dwarf," Hralfgar refocuses, "he is in need of help NOW! Follow me!"

Damon does not follow but instead sinks to his knees letting the pain finally take hold. After a short respite he uses his spear to once again get to his feet.

Trinham set to let loose the magic born into him sees no opening with the nearly berserk fighter blocking much of his few. After hearing the great roar of Hralfgar nd seeing the man start towards him he advances to the edge of the cliff where he saw Martomum.

"Ye greenie arses," Trinham hears the dwarf yell. "Ye did no tink to may sures ta secures me afore ye killsed ta very ting be keepn' mes from fallin!!" the dwarf berates them as he clings to the side of the cliff by only a large tuff of grass. "Gets mes UP!!"

[sblock=ooc]
Athos and Greyhay are near the burning tree with Damon not far away. Trinham and Hralfgar are near the edge of the cliff where Martomum is hanging by the same grass that was twisted about him. The Outrider is at the bottom of the 80' ravine. Out of combat and back to free form posting[/sblock]
