Scotley's 4e Swashbuckler

[Insight]

Lucien continues his assault against the nearest orc.


Did I miss an updated map somewhere?

Dual Strike, Lifedrinker Rapier +1: +11 (1d8+7), Rhythm Blade Shortsword +1: +12 (1d6+7)

OOC: If Lucien doesn't kill the orc, do you want to shift 1 square out of the way so that Ali can shift over and get a flank with Colin on the orc? If not, it's cool.

Maintaining his position under the table, the gunslinger focuses on the closest enemy, an orc with a large axe. His pistols sound loudly in the tight confines and one bullet strikes the creature's calf.

Suddenly the area around the table is enveloped in a globe of darkness, blocking the table, and drow, from sight.

OOC: That works for Lucien.

Maintaining his position under the table, the gunslinger focuses on the closest enemy, an orc with a large axe. His pistols sound loudly in the tight confines and one bullet strikes the creature's calf.

Suddenly the area around the table is enveloped in a globe of darkness, blocking the table, and drow, from sight.

Seeing the new Orc on the field, the older musketman quickly adjusts some mechanisms on Drache before shooting the Orc leader. It hits the Orc hard enough in the chest to daze it. As it stumbles around, Wilhelm quickly reloads another shot at its knees; the bone explodes, forcing the Orc to the floor.
Thayoon lobs a handful of powder to the ground and a bright flash causes all the Orcs looking to squint for a moment. When they look again, the mage is standing up on the chandelier in the center of the room, with his leg wrapped around the rope it hangs from. Of course he must have jumped off that table while they weren't looking, his bodyguard is on the ground beneath him, daggers at the ready.

Thayoon hauls up the metal covered tome again for a moment and swings the chandelier wildly in a circle, casting powder at all the Orcs within 15ft of him after letting the heavy tome fall back to his waste on its chain, going clockwise starting with the one in the doorway. Trails of the foreign dust hang in the air as the chandelier continues to swing through its wide arc. But on his second pass, with sparks bursting from his hand to set the floating dust alight, one of the support ropes snaps and the mage only manages to light a couple before they have dispersed.

The two he does light send motes of blue flame arcing out onto the heads of the Orc by the door and the archer on the balcony that his fire warrior had hit only moments before her death. The pair catch flame and begin to burn as the blue flames spread over their clothing quickly. The Archer recovers and slaps out the flames, but the Savage at the top of the stairs falls in a flaming heap.

Lucien continues his assault against the nearest Orc landing one blow and then moving to trap the Orc between himself and Ali.

OOC: Ali and Colin are up!

 

[Lou]

Ali

Ali swings his sword hard at the flanked, marked orc.

OOC: Basic attack +13 (with CA) v AC 1d8+8 crit +1d6

OOC: Does that kill the orc? If it does, then Ali will move on. If not, move to flank for Colin.

 

[Insight]

Colin watches as Lucien and Ali trade blows against the hapless orc caught between two allies. As the orc dances, trying to avoid the skilled strikes, the dwarf awaits his turn to join the rain of steely death.

OOC: Pending whether Ali has slain the orc in L14, of course (it doesn't look like enough damage has been done for that, so I'm going under the assumption that the orc is still up). I am assuming combat advantage with a flank from Ali. Actions: Standard Action: War Song Strike against the Orc in L14. Assuming this hits, the next ally who hits the Orc in L14 before the end of Colin's next turn gains 4 temporary hit points. Move Action: Shift 1 square to M15. I can't tell if Manous has the Orc in L16 marked (with Divine Challenge). If so, both Orcs are now marked (the one in L14 should be marked by Lucien). If this is the case, Colin will instead MOVE 3 squares to O12. This will provoke opportunity attacks from both Orcs, but if they take the attacks, Lucien will get to attack L14 and Manous will do his Divine Challenge damage to L16. As a reminder, if anyone within 5 squares of Colin bloodies an enemy or drops it to 0 hit points, they gain 5 temporary hit points and a +2 to damage rolls until the end of Colin's next turn.

Round 4 summary part 3.

Ali swings his sword hard at the Orc landing a good blow and then shifts into a more favorable position.

Colin lands a blow on the same Orc leaving him badly wounded. The nimble Dwarf then slips out of reach. Both Orcs choose a defensive posture rather than expose themselves to the other Hounds by trying to attack the retreating Bard.

Tabitha nimbly vaults over the bar to engage the next orc!
"Look," she says with a smug grin. "They brought more. It's just like Festivus Day." She lands a particularly vicous attack that leaves the Orc bloodied.

Malkyr quickly skewers the Orc next to him before moving to his real target, plunging him and the evil priest in darkness.

The Archers take up their bows again and begin to fire. Thayoon is hit (9 damage) and the force of the shaft pushes him from the chandelier to fall to the floor below (7 falling damage) landing prone. Arrows fly past Lucien and Ali without hitting.

Dazed and shrouded in darkness the Eye of Gruumsh struggles to his feet.

The Berzerkers continue undaunted by the loss of so many companions, but their attacks fail to strike Manous, Lucien or Tabitha. Despite the misses, the Orcs facing Lucien and Tabitha seem to surge with new energy.

OOC: Begin round five, Manous, Aislinn and Francois are up…

OOC: Did Ali or Lucien bloody that orc in L14? If so, that PC gains 5 temps and a +2 to damage rolls until the end of Colin's next turn.
