We have this one in hand!" The maul annihilates a branch on the tree. Unfortunately, it's one that Muzdum already chopped off and it has no further impact on the treant. The runes flare and seem to die down. But then small explosion bursts from the head of Osvetnik and it strikes down the treant. Orsik quickly draws a shield-like rune sending it in front of Braddock. "Braddock, touch the rune to shield you and heal!"               (Sustain; MISS; AP – HIT)  [gm][MENTION=87106]MetaVoid[/MENTION]: Each direction given to the shifter hunter requires one command (i.e. one direction to shift (move) makes only one shifter move, etc)[/gm]  As the treant toppled over, Rikka moved past its carcass, shifting briefly into her elven form. She stepped quickly around into a better position, then made a sharp gesture with her totem- in an instant the air around three of the wood woads exploded in a burst of glittering black shards. (MISS, HIT & HIT)     Braddock laughs at the wood woad as its fey enchantment grasps hold of his limbs. "Aye ye little stick man! This is where I wanted ye. Come now and see what ye've got in store for ya!" Despite the bravado, Braddock cannot break free enough to hit the fey guardian. (MISS)     Muzdum grunts under the succession of blows. "I'm sick of this hittin' the dwarf contest ye have, woody! Take that!" Muzdum hacks at the treant again, this time scoring a devastating blow. He also tries to punch the creature, buck his fist bounces off painfully. "Ouch! Ye son of newt!" (HIT & MISS)  [gm][MENTION=51271]Voda Vosa[/MENTION]: pathfinderq1 is correct that the Wicker-Man is dead. Orsik’s attack targets Will not AC. I’ll say that this attack hits the wood woad 5 instead.[/gm]  Quan seems rejuvenated as the returns to elven form and swirls with punches and kicks at the remaining nature folk. Knocking one to the ground and menacing the other. Get back, tribesmen he calls half-heartedly. (HIT & HIT)     The hunters find themselves out of position to do anything to help the allies defeat the twisted fey creatures. (nothing)     With a thunderous crash, the Wicker-Man slowly begins to topple. A deep groaning reverberates through the forest clearing, and with a CRACK! the twisted treant snaps off, its trunk slamming to the ground while its roots remain planted in the forest loam beneath it. (Dramatic death).     The wood woads quickly advance on the allies. Though the Wicker-Man is dead, they fight on.

Each round, the hunters will have ONE Standard action. This can be converted to a move action or be used as a melee basic attack (including charge). You can spend your character’s extra actions to give the hunter additional actions as listed below. To be able to direct the shifter hunter’s actions, you MUST be within 2 squares of the hunter your character wishes to control.     (your) Minor Action -> (hunter’s) Move Action (shift, run or move) OR Minor Action (Longtooth Shifting power)     (your) Move Action -> (hunter’s) Move Action (shift, run or move)     (your) Standard Action -> (hunter’s) Move Action (shift, run or move) AND Minor Action (Longtooth Shifting power)     *NOTE: Shifter Hunters are considered allies and as such, they can flank with the characters or other shifters. They can also be healed and they are able to use any effects that can effect a PC (i.e. Orsik’s Rune of Mending, etc).     **NOTE: Getting to Know the Hunters: Grants Orsik the ability to give two commands to the shifter hunter he is directing (i.e. initial Standard Action and either a MOVE or MINOR - without needing to spend Orsik's action). The targeted shifter hunter cannot make two attacks during the same given round.      ***NOTE: All normal combat rules apply to these creatures.[/sblock]  [gm]Summary: I’ll keep track of all OG damage and MBAs by hunters  Shifter Hunter 1: -Shifter Hunter 2: -     Braddock: +14hp (Orsik); missed; 5 damage (OG 5 @SNT) and immobilized (save ends both)  Quan: +10hp (Orsik); missed  Orsik: -  Rikka: 12 damage  Muzdum: +16hp (Orsik); +16hp (2nd wind); missed  [/gm]</blockquote>
