Shackled City - Chapter I

[kirinke]

ooc:
That's good! Hope her buddies remember the healing kit she stowed in her backpack

IC:
While Alinis dreams, she is dimly aware of the battle happening around her and a part of her is gleefully glad to be out-cold. Another part is dreaming of drop-kicking her Hexblade buddy into the next country.

With an adamintium toed boot.

 

[Manzanita]

Raven

Raven smiles grimly, allowing her tusks to escape her full lips. She knows she caught this 'chest' a good hit, and can't imagine it can take much more. Not sure how to flank a chest, she none-the-less tries to move over slightly to keep it off guard, and delivers another double-overhand smash with her morningstar. (+3 1d8 +4)

 

[Majin]

Elyas sends another magic missle towards the mimic, hitting it again. (4 damage) Zeric this time swings for the chest itself, but his weapon is batted away by the creature's pseudopod. Dragging Alinis out of striking distance from the mimic Orpheus sets to work trying to stabalize her wound. Figuring some of the female's ribs crushed by the force of the blow she took, he centers his attentions on making sure Alinis can still breathe. (Heal check = Successful)

Raven swings at the mimic from behind again, connecting with another solid blow from behind! (Crit & Sneak Attack - 20 damage) However this time her weapon remains stuck to the creature too. The mimic strikes towards Raven but misses as the rogue jumps back releasing her grip on the morningstar, which remains stuck in it's position on the monstrous shapeshifter before her.

Initiative:

Elyas - 23
Zeric - 23
Orpheus - 18
Raven - 15
Alinis - 14 (Downed but stable)
Mimic - 13

Reaching Keygan's shop in good time, mostly due to the gnome's eagerness for the return of his familiar, about to enter the structure Althron notices out of the corner of his eye what appear to be two elve's peering at them from the rooftops above. A second full look to the roofs above the building reveal nothing.

 

[Manzanita]

Raven

Raven smiles despite the loss of her weapon, happy to have delivered another solid blow. Backing away now, she readies her crossbow to continue the battle (+3 1d8 +0)

 

[hippocrachus]

With Alinis now safe, Orpheus draws his shortbow and begins to join in the fray.

 

[kirinke]

Alinis continues to dream of kicking Zeric all across the globe and maybe into a few stray demi-planes....

 

[Verbatim]

ooc: Yeah...keep all those hateful thoughts...it just makes playing him all the more fun..

IC:

Zeric cursed under his breath as the chest's oak-like feeler deflected his blow, but watched a spasm shake the creature as Ravin landed another heavy blow from behind it.

~Now there is someone with potential...she and I will have to talk more later...~

Wondering how many blows the creature could still withstand, Zeric tried to draw the creature in with a feint and strike quickly at an exposed side.

ooc: Bluff check to feint, hopefully Zeric can hokey doke this guy and get an attack in. No need for Raven to have all the fun...

 

[Mimic]

Althron

Althron pauses for a moment and glances around again before entering the shop. Once in the shop wth the door closed he approaches the gnome. "So any other secrets you need to be telling me about?" He asks him directly, his hand wrapped around the handle of his mace to indicate the seriousness of his question. "Like why two elves are snooping around keeping an eye on your store?"

 

[kirinke]

ooc:
they aren't hateful thoughts. But much loved thoughts that Alinis hopes to someday bring to fruition.

IC
Alinis continues to be unconscious.
Alinis continues to dream lovely dreams involving Zeric and her adamtium toed boot. With maybe a few nightmarish demons thrown in for good measure. What they're doing there, she doesn't have a clue. But they do play great chess.

 

[Dhes]

Wanting to reserve his arcane powers, Elyas quickly loads his crossbow and fires at the mimic.
(+2 Ranged, Light Crossbow, 1d8)
