A Merc's Life: Howl of the Carrion King [02]

As you prowl about the room, investigating the corners and looking around the columns, a rustling sound alerts everyone to the presence of another creature in the room . . . the largest spider any of you has ever seen (about the size of a full grown hog) comes rushing between the columns to attack!

OOC: Initiative is the order of the day! :D

Tsadok

Tsadok sees his friends all look in the same direction and draw their weapons but is unable to actually see what is going on. He will draw his sap, enter the room and move to C3 to try and see around ? (not sure who this Icon is)

initiative (1d20+3=5)

OOC:
Tsadok is the icon at A3 (he was actually outside, I just needed a place to get him on the map.
Harnry is at C3, Houwlou at E3, Keeland at D1, Aodhán at G1.

There's no surprise round, so everyone will act in initiative order.
 

Keeland

OOC: initiative (1d20+3=19)

Keeland reacts quickly and sends an arrow (1d20+6=13) at the spider, but his aim could be better.

"Whats the big hary deeal about abominable ...Spider!"

Harnrey yelps and then says, "eksimatu võimsus jõu streik tõsi" and a blast of light shoots forth from his hand

Houwlou Groulenas

Houwlou, glad that he had his weapons bared and at the ready, steps forward to meet the over-sized arachnid and introduce it to his steel, but, in his haste, he gets his feet momentarily tangled around each other but quickly recovers. "Grrrrr," says the Olcán.

Init. = 3 initiative (1d20+1=3)

Unfortunately, Houwlou was unable to connect with the creepy-crawly this time. H's 1st attack against spider (1d20+6=11, 1d8+3=9, 1d20+6=11, 1d4+2=3)

Mid-Round (Aodhán's Up)

Harnry jumps at the sudden appearance of the hairy arachnid, but his reaction is lightening fast - a Magic Missile blasts into the things thorax. Keeland is almost as quick, but his aim is slightly off and his arrow skims across the spiders body without doing any harm (AC 14, T 13, FF 11).

The spider skitters forward to attack the nearest foe (Houwlou). It raises it's front legs, exposing a huge triangular mouth filled with teeth, and bites the wolf-kin, it's razor teeth slicing easily through armor and fur. Houwlou is taken aback by the things ferocity and tangles his weapons - his return strokes fail to connect.

[sblock=Mechanics/Stats]Harnry: Magic Missile (1d4+1=4)
Keeland: Miss
Houwlou: Struck for Damage (1d6=2), need Fort Save (DC 14) please.

Harnry (22)

Would Aodhán have shield or weapon drawn? I think I recall drawing them, but just wanted to confirm.[/sblock]
