Dire bears have 10' reach. My druid uses that wild shape a lot so im very aware of it's abilities, given that your sayint the bear can't get to me Lyr will double move his butt out of there and get out his whip blade.

Not according to the SRD. :)

Rallyn Paenderig, Lyrique and Mortimer, accompanied by Boromin, with Sildarin (with Doyle), Keith, Charlotte and Travellios in the cave

Initiatives:
Keith 23 (at the boulder)
Mortimer 17 (moved up to give Argent time to rethink)
Lyrique 17
Dire Bear 17 [down 7 hit points], in grease effect
Sildarin 15 (in the cave)
Paenderig 15 <- Up next
Travellios 14 (trapped in the larder)
Charlote 4 (trapped in the larder)
Rallyn 1
Boromin 1 (down in negatives, 16 hits)


Lyrique scampers away from the sliding bear, dashing as far as his legs will carry him. The bear attempts to pursue, but cannot travel nearly as far, with his legs smothered in the oily substance manifested by Rallyn. Instead of chasing the fleeing Lyrique, the bear turns on one of the flickering pests surrounding it.

It lashes out madly at both Boromin and Mortimer, who flank it. The first claw lands on Boromin roll 19 + 18 = 37 AC, damage 2d4+10; 2+4+10 = 16 who falls in a gout of blood. The second claw lashes out at Mortimer roll 6 + 18 = AC 24, 2d4+10; 3+2+10=15 damage. It's gaping maw turns and tries to madly bite at Mortimer but misses. roll 2 + 13 = AC 15. The bear has moved five feet out of the grease effect and is relegated to half move speed.

Sildarin moves further down the hallway, past the stone blocking the larder, with the sounds of combat ringing down the hall like it's some sort of sound amplifier. Still no sign of a giant and the tunnel is getting dark enough even his elven sight is beginning to become useless.
 

After Mortimer gets vicously mauled by the bear, Paendaerig reaches into his quiver and pulls out one of his special arrows. He lines up his shot at Mortimer and fires.

(To Hit: 13 + 8 = ac 21, Cure light wounds of 7 points)
 

Charlotte pauses for a moment, listening intently to the small knocking noise from the other side of the boulder.

"Someone is out there." Charlotte says to Travellios. "Somebody's found us."
 

"You're right, someone is most certainly out there. I do hope they're not commiting to anything regrettable, like getting themselves killed. That's hardly a rescue; it's suicidal heroics. And how do they plan on moving this cursed boulder? Can you communicate with them at all?"

Keith looks around, This is crazy, I have a crazy plan though... but I think I need to find the giant, I can't move this on my own, and I can exploit my invisibility.
 

Note to self: dable in telepathic communication a bit more, I have no idea where Keith is and what he is up to.
Why would you want to know what the snob is up to?
Because I don't want to be anywhere near him.
Good point.
Lets just hope the giant isn't anywhere near.


Sildarin concentrates for a moment, bringing forth my light. He starts very slowly sneaking deeper into the cave, quite aware that the light must be giving him off. He moves slowly and readies to dismiss the effect if he sees the giant.
 

"Owww! Gods, I'm not fighting this thing!" Mortimer backs quickly away from the bear, keeping his blade at the ready. If the creature decides to do something stupid that gives him an opening, he'll take it.

(Double move away from the bear, trying to avoid provoking any AoO, and ready to take any AoO that the bear might leave itself open to.)

Lyriqye yells "Every one away from the bear. I'm gonna cook it." He will wait till the others have gotten out of the area of effect and use the staff to cast Fire ball.

Use Magic Device: 11+13= 24
