First Post
Warren the halfling, HP 37/44, AC 25, Giant Killing Style or Assassin's Stance

(ooc: Why hasn't Warren been moved 30' closer yet? If he needs a Balance check for his movement, just roll it with his +11 bonus and the curse's penalty if it applies. And it's hard to tell which things on the map are enemies and which are allies....the pictures are so tiny.) :-/

On Warren's next turn, he'll move in on the closest enemy and try to flank them with an ally, if he can get that far in time, and attack once. If he gets into a flanking position, he'll shift his focus towards striking abdominal vital points, rather than just trying to hamstring and hit the femoral arteries with his low vantage point.

"Over here, uglies! Yer mommas were iguanas!" the halfling calls out.

[sblock=ooc]Don't think the boardwalk is sturdy enough ground to count for Stone Dragon maneuvers, so Warren will just make a regular attack against the closest enemy he can reach, preferably after flanking them.

If he can reach a melee position with the speed reduction of Tumble, make a Tumble check for him to avoid AoOs. Tumble +14.

If he can't get that far with tumbling, but can reach a melee position with a normal move action, then he will do so and just leave himself open to an AoO.

Short sword +13 melee for 1d4+5 damage in Giant Killing Style, against a target of Medium size or greater. Otherwise, if he gets into flanking position, he will change to Assassin's Stance and sneak attack once, short sword +13 melee (flanking) for 1d4+5+3d6 damage.[/sblock]

Larian speaks under his breath in the language of arcane secrets, then reaches out and touches Avril. The crocodile-shaped druid suddenly seems to be a few feet away from where she was a moment ago. The elven wizard then takes a few steps away from the combat, knowing that he would be hard-pressed to survive another attack.

[sblock=ooc] Cast displacement on Avril, then move to the other side of Pender.
By the way, don't forget that Siobhan and Avril should get extra attacks due to Haste.[/sblock]

With Warren now between her and the greenspawn, Tyrla felt far more confident. Arcane fire coalesced around her outstretched hand again, lancing out towards the dragon.

OOC: Eldritch blast at the dragon; +11 ranged touch (including PB and Haste effect), 4d6+1 damage

Avril - Human Druid (Crocodile) - AC 24 - hp 9/49 - Spot +13 - Listen +13

She'd hoped that her improved defense would buy herself and the others some time, but she'd been badly wrong. And her wrongness hurt like hell. The dragon's blows and battering would smart for days to come, assuming she actually survived all this. At least by the look of things, their number of enemies was growing considerably less.

Now, though, with her allies facing the dragon, it was time for retreat. Pullinb backward, she summoned the fire spirits of nature, and brought down the holy wrath of her spirit guides onto the dragon, smiting it with holy fire.

[SBLOCK=OOC]OOC: Take a 5 ft. step backward to clear the dragon's reach. If she doesn't think she can, she'll cast defensively. Concentration: +12. Cast Flame Strike. 7d6 damage, half fire, half divine damage. DC 17 for half damage.

Tyrla fires a bolt of arcane energy at the dragon, barely scalding it for 8 points of damage.

Avril's flame strike erupts from the pier destroying what footing there was where the Dragon was standing. The pillar of fire deals 29 points of damage.

The dragon ends up partly in the water, but it's not particularly crippled by this. It bites and claws at it's nearby adversaries, hitting with the bite and first claw against Pender. In total, it deals 28 damage. Pender drops to the ground now, unconcious.

The razorfiends gang up on Warren, attacking him from two different sides. One blade hits the halfling dealing 10 points of damage.

Everyone can go.

Warren the halfling, HP 27/44, AC 26, Giant Killing Style

Warren grits his teeth and mutters "I hate warlocks, I hate warlocks, I hate warlocks....no offense Tyrla," as the curse continues to make his body move like it were made of stone. "I need help!" he adds, louder.

He shifts footing and swings his blade around to wreathe it in shadow, creating a shadowy duplicate alongside, and stabs with both at the razorfiend to his right, aiming for the thighs.

[sblock=ooc]Forgot to factor in the Mass Shield of Faith and the Haste, but....well, the warlock's Slow effect should be over now, so Haste should be in effect again. If so, add +1 to Warren's AC and attack rolls this round.

Giant Killing Style, and Shadow Blade Technique versus the rightmost razorfiend. I assume the razorfiends are Medium or larger, anyway...

Apply the curse's penalty as appropriate....
Attack rolls of 31 and 21, using the 31 as the real blade, so the shadow blade doesn't connect or do any cold damage. Just 8 points of piercing damage dealt.

Shadow Blade Technique with Giant Killing Style, attack, damage, extra attack roll, cold damage (1d20+13=31, 1d4+5=8, 1d20+11=21, 1d6=3) [/sblock]

Tyrla grimaced as the greenspawn continued to close. While the dragon was a far more dire threat, they couldn't ignore the smaller beasts any longer. Hopefully Avril or Siobhan could bring the dragon down in time to save Pender...

OOC: Invoking a defensive eldritch blast for the nearer greenspawn; Concentration +12 vs. DC 16, +11 ranged touch/4d6+1 damage.

Warren, close your eyes! Working to avoid opening himself to the diminutive wyrmspawn's blade, Larian once again taps into his arcane power, this time releasing a cone of bright lights that envelop Warren and the greenspawn. Once finished, he again takes a step away from the combat.

[sblock=ooc] Cast color spray defensively, trying to get both greenspawns, but avoid Tyrla and Avril. DC 17 Will save negates. Effects vary based on hit dice (no worse than 1 round of stun for Warren, hopefully much more for the sneaks.[/sblock]
