As the sound of the impact resounds through the hallway, Torbin readies an arrow.

Squirrels are evil!

Sesto looked at Kurzon and nodded. “Again... on three. One... two... three!”

Kurzon leans back and lashes out with his booted foot again.

As the two strike the door is knocked inwards, shattered off its hinges.

Location: Guard Hall to Library Encounter: Necromancer

The door bursts open.

Begin Round One

GM:

Okay, the first strike at the door was enough to alert the Necromancer. I'm going to say that "if everyone is ready, then no-one is" (if you get what I mean), and we'll just go for round one, but with Sesto and Kurzon having gone (their action being opening the door, though feel free to post their movement, now that you've got a map). Torbin will almost certainly shoot first anyway as long as 'Goyle posts quick. I've lost track of Kurzon's HP.

OOC:

I lost my description!

Sure enough, the door opened to a small-ish room lined with bookshelves. An elf in dark robes turned and raised a bone-staff toward the door, as three skeletons armed with swords rattled forward to his defence.

Prickly Pear · Oct 22, 2017

Sesto ran in among the skeleton up to the table in the middle of the room. The sight that greeted him was one of horrible disgust. Lying on the table was, presumable, the necromancer's latest experiment. This will be the last experiment he ever will do!

OOC:

Move to R11

River Song · Oct 22, 2017

Kurzon follows his boot into the room, moving to clear the doorway he moves right up to the necromancer. (move to S11)

FitzTheRuke · Oct 22, 2017

Kurzon & Sesto

Kurzon and Sesto burst through the door, rushing past the closest of the skeletons. Sesto's angels flew into the room, flitting around with their glowing swords. One smote the Skeleton as it moved to attack Kurzon, smashing it to glowing pieces of bone which clattered to the floor.

Udit rushed in after Kurzon, letting the burly warrior acting as a visual shield. As Kurzon veered left Udit went right (U11), and as the necromancer was distracted by Kurzon - and perhaps what was incoming from down the hall, Udit struck.

He lead with a high slash at eye level with his oversized knife

attack with Slasher on Necromancer (main hand): 1D20+6 = [12]+6 = 18

sneak attack on Necromancer: 1D6+3+3D6+2 = [4]+3+[3, 5, 5]+2 = 22

And followed with a low stab to the gut

attack with stabber on Necromancer (off-hand): 1D20+6 = [6]+6 = 12

maybe off hand hit on necromancer, +2 from Bhaal: 1D6+2 = [1]+2 = 3

"This is for your ice zombies!"

Torbin did his best to stay out of the way as much as possible as people rushed forward through the door. Then casting a new mark upon the Necromancer he raised his bow, following If it's attacks up with a pair of arrows of his own.

OOC:

Favoring necromancer, will stay back as much as possible as long as he's got a target he can shoot at.

Longbow:: 1D20+6 = [17]+6 = 23
1D8+3+1D6 = [1]+3+[5] = 9
1D20+6 = [3]+6 = 9
1D8+3+1D6 = [5]+3+[3] = 11
