S1: The Strange Case of Aif Jenkins' Farm (E13 judge) - Concluded

Patlin said:

Banion's next move will be to recharge his mindblade and move into the room, as long as he has a more or less clear path. He'll tumble where necessary to avoid attacks of opportunity, but he will not attempt to enter any enemy squares. He'd prefer to end his movement in the northeast corner of the room.

If there is only one left, Banion will move to flank with Juliana instead of heading to the corner.

Juliana will step back and attack the cultist who went for a hug, and to get a flank with Banion if she can.

OOC: Juliana Attacks #4 (Add 2 to the attack if it's a flank) Expending her Psionic Focus. (1d20+7=10, 2d4+4+2d6=17) I doubt even with flank that hits

Round 2 (con't)
Banion has a good shot at the wounded monk, and hurls a ball fo acid at him. This strikes the hapless man, and he collapses, futiling trying to brush off the burning acid.

Banion moves in, recharging his mind blade and tumbling effectively pas the monk, landing behind him.

Juliana tries to take advantage of the man's distraction. She steps back and takes a swipe at him with her Guisarme. The agile man leaps over it w/o taking any damage.

The two archers down the hallway shoot arrows at Banion. Their arrows clatter against the stone walls and floor, amazingly missing the various battling foes.

The two archers in the room drop their bows. They then rush forward, drawing their long, curved blades from sheaths on their backs. One reaches the door and lashes out at Eusebius. The other closes on Banion, swinging his blade in a downward arc at the halfling. Both yell battle cries in an unknown language. Both miss.

Round 2 summary
monk cultists (one remaining)
Banion (40/40 hps)
Beamer (11/17 hps)
Juliana (27/45 hps)
cultists 2 (archers delayed until Juliana moved into room)
Eusebius (28/37 hps) <---
Boog (17/29 hps)

Eusebius attacks the swordsman who slashed at him - a quick left hook followed by a right to the gut.

[sblock=OOC]His Dodge bonus against this guy makes his AC 20.[/sblock]

Sorry. Bad DM. Lost track of his own thread...

Round 2 (con't)
Eusebius' opponents prove able fighters. Protected by their skill, speed, and studded leather armor, Eusebius can't hurt them yet.

Boog whereabouts are uncertain, as no one is looking back at him now.

Round 3
The last enemy monk tries to grapple with Juliana again. Juliana takes a large piece of his flesh off with her guisarme before he can close. Close he does, though, and this time he succeeds in grappling her. His grip causes discomfort, though her armor still mostly protects her from his hands. (Juliana takes 1 pt dmg, and is grappled.)

Beamer looks for an opening before intoning, "Ignite," and launching a stream of fire at the enemy.

OOC:
I think Beamer can target Eusebius's opponent without having to deal with cover. If not, delay/move so that he can target an enemy without cover. Beamer has precise shot.

0th: 4, 1st: 2, 2nd: 2
Mage armor still in effect: AC 19
Bolts fired: 1
Wand charges: 19

Juliana Strikes #8 with her Guisarme after failing to regain her focus.

OOC: Psionic Meditation to regain Focus (1d20+6=8), Juliana attacks #8 (1d20+7=23, 2d4+4=10)

Banion will stab the monk who is grappling Juliana, and then recharge his mindblade.

Mind Blade (Melee) v Flat Footed Monk (1d20+7=23, 1d4+2+1d8=8)

ooc: I'm not sure which square the two of them are in, but Banion will take his 5' step in an effort to threaten the grappler without being threatened by the other enemy.

Round 3 (con't)
Banion bails Juliana out of her difficulties by stabbing and killing her assailant.
Beamer has difficulty targeting an enemy, as Eusebius is fighting a warrior right in the narrow door.
Juliana shrugs off the dead body of the monk and lashes out at one of the fighters, cutting him severely. She knows that swing would have killed any of the orcs they'd been fighting, but this man still stands.

The two archers down the hallway target Banion with their bows. One arrow imbeds in the halfling's calf (4 pts dmg). Juliana's opponent steps back to avoid being flanked by Banion. He swings his blade around at the halfling, striking another minor blow. (4 pts) The other slashes his falchion at Eusebius, but the monk dodges aside.
