Carriage Battle, Round 4

Initiatives
Jansson - 20
Animus - 14
Osius and Tori'shel - 13
Illithidkin - 12
Desimus - 10
Syld - 7
Jirlai - 2

Jansson once again shoots an illithidkin with an ectoplasmic missile...

Dorje gets an 8, which misses.


Arrow + Illithidkin ===>>> Falling Body :D

Animus gets a 2, which misses.

Or, if you prefer... Arrow + Crappy Shot ===>>> Wasted Arrow :p


Osius positions himself carefully in front of Desimus, attempting to block any and all fire coming down upon the sorcerer.

Meanwhile, in the other carriage, Tori'shel shoots another illithidkin.

She gets a 19, which hits. She deals 6 points of damage to the eighth illithidkin.


The illithidkin seem much less enthusiastic now that they number only four, but they continue their flight towards you.

Suddenly, floods of white-hot ecotplasm appear over the four astral constructs pulling each carriage. Unstable ectoplasm meets slightly stable ectoplasm in a fiery blast...

The constructs are unable to make reflex saves, as they are tethered to the carriage and thus cannot maneuver enough to avoid damage.

The first carriage's constructs all take 28 points of damage.

The second carriage's constructs all take 25 points of damage.

When the flaming ectoplasm finishes falling, there is little left ot the constructs of the second carriage, though they remain and manage to continue pulling it forward.

However, nothing remains of the constructs that were previously pulling the carriage. The carriage floats for a small moment in mid-air, then crashes heavily to the ground (a distance of around 10 feet).

Jansson, Liat'ned, Tori'shel, and Jirlai take 2 points of falling damage. Liat'ned takes 4 points of falling damage.

The first carriage now rests, slightly broken, on the ground. The illithidkin ignore it, however, and continue on past it (they are now 60 feet behind the second carriage, and 30 feet ahead of the remains of the first).


Desimus once again casts sleep at his foes, and gets three of them within the range.

Overcoming SR: 13, 17, 12. All passed.

Two of the three illithidkin crash to their deaths in a peaceful slumber.

The fourth illithidkin and the eleventh illithidkin are now dead.


Syld, his target having fallen, reaims his crossbow at the eighth illithidkin and fires.

He gets an 18, which hits. He deals 8 points of damage to the eighth illithidkin.

The eighth illithidkin joins his former kin, falling to the ground to his death.


Back at the fallen first carriage, Jirlai extricates himself from inside. He aims his wand at the last remaining illithidkin, and the red beam of light shoots out from it. Purple sparks appear around the last illithidkin, and it falls to its death.

-----

No more illithidkin remain.

"Dang!"
Syld turns the carriage he is driving around and lands next to the crashed one.

After landing, he will move to help all he can to get out of it.

"****!" Osius jumps out of the landing carriage and races to make sure any nearby illithidkin are dead.

Zhure - all of the nearby illithidkin are quite dead, their bodies mangled to a large extent.

-----

Syld sets the other carriage down nearby, and rushes out to help those in the second carriage. Luckily no-one is pinned down, and can leave the carriage easily.

You can hear the sounds of combat and horns blowing in the distance, and it seems to be coming from where the yuan-ti village is.

Jansson crawls out from the carriage, then helps Liat'ned and Tori'shel out of the wreckage.

"Damn it! Is there any way we can repair this thing?" the halfling asks his companions. He reloads Niko's pistol, scouring the surrounding land for any sign of trouble as he does so.

"I doubt it, but there's always a chance."
Syld starts going through the wrecked carriage and study it and see if it will 'start up'.
If it doesn't, he'll try to see if there is anything he could fix.

The carriage doesn't appear to be too heavily damaged - if the constructs were still there, it would probably still be flying in its current condition.

The only thing that appears to be missing are the constructs. Everything else seems to be more-or-less in tact.

"Everyone stay clear of the carriage, something might still go wrong." Jasson says as he takes the drivers seat, and attempts the command-thought.
