The Retrievers - Chapter 2

Reinn nods to himself as he watches Koraero try to take out the sorcerer, obviously it was a leader of some type. "Take out the head the the rest will follow." He thinks to himself as he mutters the words of magic that were ingrained into him in the academy.

He watches with satifaction as a burst of light leaps from his finger and flys and hits the sorcerer.

Chapter 2 - Cave Room 2 - Round 2

Pemberton sidesteps to finish off the kobold attempting to crawl away on the ground but is distracted by the kobold to his left and his first strike misses horribly but he is able to thrust his sword through the kobolds chest impaling the kobold to the ground, killing it.

Sten take a step into the room praying to his god to offer a Blessing to his allies in battle.

Reinn moves up behind Sten once more continuing to protect the rear of the group all the while chanting out a spell that launches a glowing ball of light at the Sorcerer, striking him in the chest, almost knocking the Kobold Sorcerer from its feet.

"Ouch! Kor, get that damn sorcerer! Alright you little... c'mere!" Durnn changes his tactic mid swing as Pemberton steps in front of him to finish off the Kobold lying on the ground so Durnn now focus's his attack on the Kobold about to leap on Pemberton's back and essentially splits it in two, blood fountaining skyward.

Kor takes a pot shot at the sorcerer and notices his arrow strike true and imbed itself in the already blackened chest of the Sorcerer.

The Kobold Sorcerer, with blood flowing freely down his robe, throws some sand in the air and utters a spell and then stumbles back a step.

Kor - Is unaffected by sleep spells.[/sblock]

The remaining Kobolds move up to take positions and attack the party missing horribly. You can barely see the kobold that is hanging back by the Kobold Sorcerer bring out a sling and swirl it over its head then slinging a stone at Reinn. The stone flies straight and true and bounces off of Reinn’s forehead, leaving a growing red welt.

With a smile spreading across his face Mindal see the kobold thrust his spear at his midsection and overbalance himself, leaving himself wide open. Mindal takes this excellent opportunity to swing his sword with all his might and laying open the kobold from his left shoulder to his right hip. The kobold goes down screaming as Mindal takes a 5' step past the dying creature to threaten another one.

(ooc: Pemberton the kobold you were attacking was prone, flat-footed and essentially cowering so his AC went down to 8 which is why you were able to hit and kill it.)

Mindal Human Scout

Shouting encouragement to his companions Mindal says, "Victory is at hand my friends, press the attack." He whirls his short swords (1d20+3=19, 1d20+3=10) in a fierce attack and
strikes(1d6+3=5) the Kobold before him.

OOC: If the Kobold falls he'll take another 5' step and continue his attack, if it survives he'll attack it again.

Koraero Firironna - Sun Elf Rogue 2

Koraero, impressed with his accuracy lets out a suprised "Hmph." He then pulls back the bow string and fires at the sorcerer again.

OOC:
1) Kor shoots at kobold sorcerer, rolling a 7, presumably missing
2) Kor does not move

Pemberton attacks the kobold in 2624 lunging past it harmlessly, however his follow up attack with his shortsword connects with a solid, if unspectaculr blow

If that does take it out he will step foward into 2724

Sten moves from his position at the back to a more aggressive position by the rear kobold. (double move out and around the front line to 2626)

Durnn, Earth Genasi Fighter 1 (HP 8/13)

Durnn continues to plow through with a big grin on his face...

OOC: Durnn will attack the kobold in 2723. Attack 1d20 + 8 = 11. A miss I assume.

Reinn grabs his forehead where the rock bounced off from staggering backwards reeling slightly from the pain, he mentally makes a note of what the creature that hit him looks like. He will get his, all in due time though, there are bigger fish to fry at the moment. He grabs his crossbow aims at the sorcerer and lets fly.

Once he finishes his attack he will move up into the cave (2422)

"Spread out don't bunch together."

ooc: crossbow attack 22 Threat confirmation: no
crossbow damage: 4

Chapter 2 - Cave Room 2 - Round 3

Pemberton attacks the kobold in front of him with his first strike deflected by the creatures spear leaving an opening up for his shortsword to sneak in and sink its blade up to the hilt. Pemberton plants a foot into the creature’s chest and pulls his sword free as takes a step forward.

Sten strategically moves around the room to threaten the creature that is taking pot shots at them with its sling.

Reinn reeling from the solid hit to the head steadies himself and fires his crossbow and see that his bolt will fly true and thuds into the face of the sorcerer, silencing it forever.

Durnn attempts to plow through the creature in front of him but the creature is able to brings it spear up in time to block the blow.

Upon seeing the Sorcerer fall, Kor quickly switches his aim to another creature but upon doing so he falters a little bit and his arrow passes the creature to strike harmlessly off the wall behind him.

The spear wielding creatures continue to press the attack but both miss horribly one of them even dropping its spear in the attack.

The creature that is now being threatened by Sten takes a 5' step back and launches a stone in his direction missing horribly.

Mindal slashes his weapon at the creature who dropped his spear and easily dispatches it and takes a step over its lifeless body.

The party is happy to note that there are only two creatures left when all of a sudden you hear something screech from the smaller room in front of you. Suddenly skittering across the roof, about 30' up, you see an extremely large spider with another one of these creatures riding it scurry over the roof and then drop to the ground. At which point the creature riding the spider starts to weave a spell and casts it northward. With venom dripping from its mandibles all eight of its eye focus on Mindal as it waits to attack.

Mindal Human Scout

Mindal is startled by the appearance of the new foe. He tries to attack with both short swords (1d20+3=6, 1d20+3=4), but his aim is off and he fails to hit the target. Cursing under his breath he prepares to wade in again.
