Barrion curses his inability to see over the barricade. He takes out and ignites a sunrod, in order to help those who can't see well in the dim and cautiously approaces the barricade.

Nathan moves up to the alcove (13), putting his back to the southern wall, ready to stop nay reinforcement that could come from there and getting some cover from the guys behind the barricade.

OOC: And Next, Ligthning Lure to get one guy from behind of the barricade... if Dargan hadn't moved, I think I would have done it with an action point so he can charge him, but I'm too late.
 

Unwilling to get stuck in the middle of the corridor Garrick darts forward, trying to get forward as nimbly as possible without actually running. Reaching the middle of the corridor he keeps moving, aiming for the base of the barricade.

"If they pop up to fire at me, take them out."

[sblock=OOC]Move followed by another move, ending up crouched at the base of the barricade.[/sblock]
 

Dagran and Garrick being prone or hunched before the barricade, the monks opt to shoot above them at Leyra and Nathan.

(Neither Dagran or Garrick provide cover to allies behind them given the circumstances)

Stealth (1d20+13=32, 1d20+13=20)

[sblock]Checks were in order; Dm1 and Dm2. Dm1 shoots at Nathan and Dm2 at Leyra, so Leyra sees her attacker while Nathan doesn't.[/sblock]

Ghost Shuriken (1d20+10=26, 2d4+3=6, 1d20+10=22, 2d4+3=7) vs Reflex

[sblock]-2 for cover, +2 for CA, 26 VS Nathan; hits
-2 for range, -2 for full defense; 18 vs Leyra; hits

For refrence, the second 1d4 of damage is necrotic, incase you have some resistance I am not aware of.[/sblock]

Both the cleric and swordmage feels sharp pain and torment. The two monks then swiftly withdraw and enter the first ritual chamber.

Suddenly the door to the locker room opens and another monk attacks Nathan hand to hand, his palm glowing with negative energy but Nathan deflect with his magic shield.

Recharhe on 4 or more (1d6=4)

Suddelnly the furniture is torn apart! It hid a nasty set of spinning blade mounted on a chariot. The engine of death moves forward and runs over Dagran and Garrick.

Vs Garrick;Dagran (1d20+10=30, 3d8+3=24, 1d20+10=17, 3d8+3=14) +2 CA vs Dagran

Its shreds the little hafling very badly and blood is spattered on the wall. The dwarf, despite being prone or perhaps because of hit is spared by the blades though he gets a good shave and loses part of his beard.

Second chance (1d20+10=30)

[sblock]
Huh. Because using second chance was a complete no-brainer (nothing does more damage on this battlefield than the whirling blades and it had just scored a critical) I took the liberty of rolling second chance since no better opportunity would come along. Another critical. Wow. 27 points of damage (and I had rolled 24 anyway)!

BTW: We have to talk about the best way of using second chance, Garrick. It's better if I roll it on my turn so that the people who post after my turn but before yours know wether or not you are in trouble so maybe if you give me some parameters of when you want to use it, it would be a good compromise between player control and game efficiency.

The machine continues moving in the corridor in the direction of Leyra and Barrion.

Relevant Status

Leyra: 25/49
Nathan: 53/66 -1 surge (from between the two fight, started at 59)
Garrick : 20/52 ; bloodied
Mirage : 41/49
Dagran: 65/66

[sblock]Based on the last status from previous fight with only Dagran and Nathan having spent surge in between. Correct me if somebody else intended to spend a surge.[/sblock]

[sblock]Yellow squares have good light thanks to Barrion's sunrod. The blades move at a speed of 4 per round. You can move through them, just roll a +10 VS AC attack against yourself, 3d8+3 damage. If you deliberately move through them, you can make an acrobatic check at the same time you roll the attack. If the attack beats your AC but your acrobatic check beats the attack, you are unscathed. You can't do the acrobatic check if you are attacked on the blades turn.[/sblock]

Leyra

Seeing no other way, other than to retreat and wait for the whirling blades to move past her, which in turn would mean to leave her comrades to whatever was hidden behind the weird chariot, Leyra braces herself and moves forward, trying to dodge the blades as good as possible. Some scratch her armor and come dangerously close of cutting her flesh, but the nimble elf manages to avoid the worst and gets through unscathed.

Once there, the cleric sees that her decision was right, and Leyra immediately uses her healing powers on the heavily wounded Garrick.


OOC: Standard: Total Defense, once more;
Move: Move to K12.
Machine misses (by 1 point, thanks to Total Defense!!)
(Glad, that I put the note about TD in the roll's note at this point, so you can see I actually decided on that before rolling.)

Minor: Healing Word on Garrick (13 + HSV).
 

Shaken by his near brush with death, Garrick lay still for a moment ss Leyra prayed over him. His wounds healed almost completely the hgalfling glanced around to decide his next action.

OOC: Healing Word + Surge gives back 26HP

Nathan step back into the corridor, trying to get a better situation. He then mark the only opponent he can see before charging his sword. A ligtning arc easily drag the monk next to Dargan for him to strike.

[SBLOCK=OOC]Move: Shift to K12.
Minor: Mark the monk.
Standard: Ligthning Lure to L13 for 9 damages.

Also, in my ministats, the number of remaining surge is probably wrong, as I forget how many surge I used in the first combat (2?). Don't have time to track that back at the moment.[/SBLOCK]

Barrion backs away from the whirling blades of death and tries to judge the situation.

"I don't think I'll be able to get over this if I can't see past it!"

[sblock=ooc]Move: Move to I3.
Standard: Total Defense.[/sblock]
 

As Nathan retreats, the Monk sneak in a quick kick, catching the warrior squarely on the knee.

Attack of Opportunity (1d20+12=31, 1d8+4=12)

Protected by dim light and the cover afforded to him by the wall, the monk deftly dodge the lightning lasso of the swordmage and remains in place.

[sblock=Velmont]
You can't cut corners with a diagonal movement, Velmont.

Diagonal Movement
Moving diagonally works the same as other movement,
except you can’t cross the corner of a wall or another
obstacle that fills the corner between the square you’re
in and the square you want to move to.
p.283

Also, don't forget the visibility modifier and cover. You and Garrick are the two PC who must remember the -2 to concealment against an opponent who isn't in the sunrod area of effect. And the corner gave the Monk another -2 for cover. So you were attacking at -4. That's 15 against 16, you missed. And since the only way to reach K12 was a move, not a shift, the monks makes an AoO.

Mirage, Garrick and Dagran still up
