Keeland

Startled by the appearance of the strange bug thing, Keeland fumbles with his arrow and is slow to react. He does finally get arrow and string together to fire (1d20+4=8), unfortunately, his shot goes well wide of the mark.

Tsadok

Tsadok steps toward the scorpion and tries to hit with his sap. His positioning is awkward as he is trying to stay out of the line of fire from it's tail and it's spitting.

Ankheg Fight (Round 01A)

The Ankheg lunges forward, snapping it's huge mandibles closed on Houwlou's meaty thigh and trying to drag the big Olcán back to it's tunnel. The blood gushing from the wound in his leg allows Houwlou to slip free, and the creature readies itself for another attack. The wound in Houwlou's thigh begins to burn as the acid seething from the Ankheg's mouth makes itself felt.

[sblock=Initiative]Ankheg: 20
Tsadok: 14
Harnry: 12

Grapple (1d20+11-20*=-07)

*It's a cautious creature, and attempted to Hold, which is -20 to Grapple attempt but avoids the Grappled condition on itself.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC]Just need an attack from Houwlou and I can resolve the round.[/sblock]

Houwlou Groulenas

Howling (literally!) with pain from the beast's bite, Houwlou brings his sword down as heavily as he is able on the tenderest spot on the thing he can find.

now That's more like it! 1d20+5=25, 1d8+3=11 Threat! Roll to confirm crit: 10

1d20+5=10

Ankheg Fight (Round 1B)

Tsadok reacts quickly to the appearance of the monstrosity, slipping deftly between his new acquaintances and flailing at the thing with a sap. The ankheg jerks it's head to the side, flinging Houwlou into Tsadok even as the howling wolf-kin slips from it's grasp.

Harnry and Aodhán are alerted by the sounds of battle and rush to join the fray however they can, but the quarters are tight.

Keeland steps back to give himself room to put his bow to use, but Tsadok's brief association with the group hasn't allowed him to become part of the well oiled Mercenary Machine, and his sudden movement throws Keeland's aim off.

Houwlou's primal scream reverberates through the small space, eliciting winces of pain from his allies. The bug is too concerned with the gash his intended meal has opened in his side to worry overmuch about the howling.

[sblock=Houwlou]You gave better than you got in terms of raw damage, but in terms of HP% you're gonna need a little more help from your friends to keep up this rate of exchange . . . Still, nicely done![/sblock]

[sblock=Map Positions]I'm still learning the ins and outs of MapTool, so I didn't label the grid this time. If I didn't place you where you'd like to be let me know and I'll position you accordingly. Harnry and Aodhán, you've got some movement (and possibly an attack or other action, depending on how you position yourselves) - let me know what you want to do and I'll get it into the first round. I forgot about that when I was calling for actions.[/sblock]

Houwlou Groulenas

"Fling ME about like a ragdoll, will you? We'll just SEE about that!" Spitting these words, Houwlou raises his longsword again, and drives it into the creature with all the power he can muster. Unfortunately, as he is doing so, his foot finds a patch of ichor that is leaking from the beast, and he slips just enough to ruin the aim of his blow.
Houwlou's next attack at the ankheg. (1d20+5=10, 1d8+3=10)

[sblock=Ooops]I don't know if anyone will bother to look, but I made a mistake in the Campaign name on the IC entries I made today. I had a brain cramp and thought it was still called "Ihmlan."[/sblock]

Tsadok

Tsadok prevents Houwlou from being flung further and hopefully keeps him in this fight.

Being pushed back a bit by Houwlou's momentum, Tsadok will move forward and again try to attack with his sap, this time connecting solidly.

Harnrey moves into the room (5 feet SW, 10 feet S) and summons a dart of green viscous fluid. it strikes solidly, but with minimal effect as the hard plating of the insectoid creature was more then what he thought it to me: Ranged Touch attack
1d20+2=18, 1d6=1

(spell failure of 10%: 1d100=83 )

renau1g · Nov 9, 2009

Aodhán draws a javelin after seeing he can't reach the monster. Turning around the corner he flings a weapon at the creature, unfortunately the abhac's training was not in ranged combat and with his allies dodging and parrying in front of him it is extremely difficult to make his throw.

[sblock=ooc]
Move to SE corner and draw javelin.
vs ac; dmg (1d20 2=19, 1d6 2=7) Forgot -4 for missile weapon into melee so hits ac 15... for 7 damage
