[QUOTE="jeffwik, post: 778470, member: 9739"] And we're back. Erk? [i]Yes?[/i] Thoughts? [i]Oh, right. Now, the smart thing to do here is wait out that [color=blue]Mist[/color]. With fog that dense, you're looking at full concealment past five feet, and half-concealment closer in. Without Blind-Fighting, it's a tough situation. But [color=blue]Obscuring Mist[/color] is only a first-level spell, duration only a minute or three.[/i] What about the [color=blue]Magic Weapon[/color] effects? Its duration is only a minute! [i]I'd give them up for lost; it's just not tactically sound to move into that fog.[/i] Sound advice, sound advice. But lucky for us it looks like the team isn't going to take it -- they're going in! [i]What? Bunch of half-wits![/i] Switching to the Whip-Cam, and ooh is that fog thick! I can't see a thing. Erk? [i]They're doomed. They're all going to die. Should have waited out that fog.[/i] What are we seeing, Erk? [i]I'll tell you what we're seeing, we're seeing a bunch of amateurs getting themselves killed, is what we're seeing![/i] Right. So it looks like Stumpy and the Kid are moving through the temple, trying to beat out Froggy, while Featherkill covers the door. Oh, oh, they must have heard something, they're moving off to -- uh, somewhere in the temple... and yes, there it is. And [b]there[/b] is the whip dagger taking a chunk out of Froggy's midsection. Nice shot, eh Erk? [i]Doomed, doomed, doomed...[/i] Hoo, looks like Stumpy is letting loose with... are those [color=blue]Rays of Frost[/color]? [i]Like it matters.[/i] You are one lousy color commentator, you know that Erk? But this isn't the time or the place. Featherkill's arrows are going wide... that concealment is seriously putting a cramp on the team's damage dealing capabilities. Stumpy seems to be out of [color=blue]Rays of Frost[/color] now, he's, yes, he's firing the crossbow again, this time from only five feet away. [i]Gonna die.[/i] Maybe not... looks like that [color=blue]Shield[/color] is making the difference, as Froggy tries and fails to bite Stumpy's head off. They may come out of this yet... Featherkill steps up, looks like he's traded in his bow for a longsword... ooh! [i]Here it comes![/i] Maybe, maybe... Froggy has just laid some kind of whammy on Kid Presentable, [color=blue]Cause Fear[/color] or [Color=blue]Scare[/color] or something similar, and the Kid is bolting! He's dropped the whip and is moving away! [i]Where's he going?[/i] Wish I knew... can't see through the fog, but he's not coming out of the temple, as you can see... cutting back to the Whip-Cam, and... [i]I told you.[/i] Featherkill is down! Featherkill is on the ground, covered in viscous acid, looks like Froggy bit him a few times as well. It is not looking good for the team.

[i]Whoops.[/i] Well, that's why Stumpy went into this fight with sixteen hit points. [i]He doesn't have sixteen hit points now, let me tell you.[/i] He's still at it with that crossbow... a nice shot, a nice shot, Froggy is reeling!
