A Dark and Stromy Knight

[Venom]

Taking his lead from Mardocan Grundan draws his short bow and also takes a shot at rat #3 Attack with bow (+1 for range 70') (1d20+1=20) doing Arrow (1d6=5) damage . He then retreates 15 foot into the passage closest to him.

Initiative for combat is as follows:
Rat#2
Grundan
Rat#4
Rat#5
Rat#1
Mardocan
Rat#6
Rat#7
Rat#3
Rat#8

Clearly frightened by the storm the rats flee the passage and head straight toward the only light source in the room - Mardocan's torch!

All the rats are running toward the party (speed = 15' x 2 = 30').

Rat#2 runs 30' toward the party.

Grundan drops his axe on its sling, draws his shortbow and fires an arrow at rat#3 with such speed that would impress even Robin Hood! The shot is good (attack roll of 19 + 1(dex) - 2 (range) = 18 vs AC 14) and the arrow hits with such force that it shatters on impact disintigrating rat#3 in the process (5HP damage!). Rat#3 is dead.

Rat#4 runs 30' toward the party.

Rat#5 runs 30' toward the party.

Rat#1 runs 30' toward the party.

Mardocan eyes rat#3 as he spins up his sling but seeing Grundan kill it he shoots the bullet at the next closest target (rat#2, 50' away) The bullet hits it sqaure on the head (attack roll of 12 + 2(dex) = 14 vs AC14) killing it instantly (4HP damage) as it penetrates its skull. Mardocan moves 5' east.

Rat#6 runs 30' toward the party.

Rat#7 runs 30' toward the party.

Rat#3 runs 30' toward the party.

Rat#8 runs 30' toward the party.

OCC: I'm not going to let such small creatures with such low HPs lie around dying for 6 rounds if you inflict more than 2x its HP damage unless you want to heal one and keep as a pet.

Seeing that the rats are dropping so easily Mardocan yells, "Guide my fists Hextor", and runs 30' West towards the rats. He then stands ready to punch a rat as soon as it gets in range. Ready melee attack against any rat coming into range.

OCC: Hextor is a Deity of Law - Mardocan being a lawful neutral Monk devotes time to futher this Deities cause.

 

[Venom]

Getting caught up in the moment Grundan drops his bow and grabs his Axe shouting “Puny rats, Grundan smash rats with axe” and runs (35’ east) after Mardocan readying an attack as soon as a rat gets in range.

Grundan drops his bow and runs toward the rats reading his axe in a chopping position.

Rat#4 runs toward the party but Grundan is ready for it bringing his great axe crashing down on the ground (melee attack roll of 3 + 1(BAB) + 4(STR) = 8 vs AC14) missing the rat and sending sparks flying in the dark as the axe hits the stone floor.

Rat#5 runs 30’ toward the party.

Rat#1 runs 30’ toward the party.

Mardocan cracks his knuckles as he moves toward the swarming rats and brings his fist down on rat#4 in a swift movement (melee attack roll of 20! + 0(BAB) + 2(STR) = 22 vs AC14; confirm critical attack roll of 8 + 0(BAB) + 2(STR) = 10 = fail critical) connecting the rat full on the body - stopping his fist just short of hitting the ground – busting its gut open (3 + 2(STR) = 5HP damage). Rat#4 is now a puddle of blood and guts.

Rat#6 runs 30’ toward the party.

Rat#7 runs 30’ toward the party.

Rat#8 runs 30’ toward the party.

 

[mariusm]

Hee Haa!

Mardocan shouts a loud, "KIA!!", as he pulls his fist back. Shifting his weight on to his left leg he does a swift snap kick with his right leg at Rat #7's snout. Mardocan says in a teasing voice to Grundan, "That's two for me now...".

 

[Venom]

Letting out a loud roar Grunden takes another swing at Rat #1 relishing the opportunity to stretch his muscles and try out his new axe.

Ouch !!!

Initiative for combat:
Grundan
Rat#5
Rat#1
Mardocan
Rat#6
Rat#7
Rat#8

Grundan raises his great axe high above his head and brings it down on the rat with all his might (melee attack roll of 9 + 1(BAB) + 5(STR) = 15 vs. AC14 doing 11HP damage!!!) slashing the rat in two and lodging his axe in the floor. Grundan has a wicked smile as he pulls his axe free from the floor. Rat#1 is dead.

Rat#5 makes a dash for Grundan but (AOO melee attack roll of 13 + 1(BAB) + 5(STR) = 19 vs. AC14 doing 13HP damage!!!) is split in two by Grundan’s axe before he can reach him. Grundan seems to be more “in the swing of things” now that his axe has tasted the rat blood. Rat#5 is dead.

Mardocan’s foot shoots out swiftly (melee attack roll of 14 + 0(BAB) + 2(STR) = 16 vs. AC14 doing 4HP damage) connecting a rat full on the nose snapping its neck in the process. Rat#7 is dead.

Rat#6 makes his dash for Mardocan (AOO melee attack roll of 6 + 0(BAB) + 2(STR) = 8 vs. AC14) reaching him as he is busy executing rat#7 and manages to run up Mardocan’s leg (modified melee attack roll of 16 vs. AC15 doing 1HP damage) biting him in the groin. Mardocan has tears in his eyes!

Rat#8 is not far behind rat#6 (modified melee attack roll of 21 vs. AC15 doing 1HP damage) biting Mardocan on the inner thigh!

 

[mariusm]

Mardocan curses, "Little dirty buggers!", as the rats nip at him. He moves 5' East and unleashes a barrage of fists on the two rats. He will flurry attack hitting Rat #6 first and changing target to Rat #8 if he kills the first rat.

OCC: I assume the rats will remain in the original square when I move, since they are not grappling me...

 

[Venom]

Grundan laughs loudly as he sees the rats get split in half by his axe shouting excitedly “Die puny rats” he will then move 5’ south west and take another swing at the rat closest to him.
