Adventure: Delivery of Death (DM: Luinnar, Judge: renau1g)

[TwoHeadsBarking]

"Hmm, let's check around the side."

 

[Dekana]

Jax steps up to the door, pulls out his lockpicking tools, and attempts to pop the lock. After he's finished, he looks blankly at Andras as if breaking into the house was the most natural thing in the world to do.

(Thievery 26)

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

Andras shrugs, "Well, if the door is open, we might as well go in."

 

[Sanzuo]

			WHY DOESN'T ANYONE EVER WANT TO GO FIRST?

​

RAM TIGER wonders to himself as he crashes shoulder-first into the door and looks for stuff to eat or steal.

 

[Antithetist]

"...so I guess we should just head on in," Kasha muses, slipping in behind RAM TIGER. "HELLO?" she calls out. "ANYONE HOME? WE BROKE IN BY MISTAKE."

 

[nerdytenor]

"HELLO?" she calls out. "ANYONE HOME? WE BROKE IN BY MISTAKE."

If Dorn's exasperation weren't already clear from his facial expression, a spectral, ghostly hand appears next to his head and slaps him in the forehead. "Maybe we should have brought milk and cookies," he mutters, drawing his dagger.

 

[Luinnar]

The lock clicks and the doors opens silently... until RAM TIGER bursts through it that is. An overpowering stench instantly fills your nostrils, it is coming from the source of the lights. RAM TIGER rushes forward to see what the smell is, and after calling out to the people inside you decide to rush after him.

You follow him through an open door, in which lies a spacious dining room with fine appointments, showing taste and wealth. A chandelier of burning candles fills the room with a warm and pleasant light. A number of large, covered serving trays lie upon the table in the center of the room, and six people sit at the table, one with a blue broach on her dress. With a flourish she lifts the lid from the grandest platter, revealing tonight's meal: rotting meat of an unknown origin. Suddenly her face turns towards you staring with malevolent eyes—the eyes of a ghoul!

GM: You surprised the ghouls, so everyone gets a surprise round action. Remember you only get one action in a surprise round. Also, if you have a picture of Andras TwoHeadsBarking I'll change his icon to match it (I just used a generic one). Turns will be resolved in order posted. Status BOTN/EONT bonuses can only be applied once per character, unless you use get extra attack(s) that round. So only once for Paint The Bulls-Eye, regardless of when you post compared to Andras, though it will last EONT so people can use it regardless of when TwoHeadsBarking posts. (I hope I am not making this confusing)

OOC: Are our weapons drawn? Hey everybody, you get a +2 bonus to initiative for being my friend. Token is attached.

 

[Dekana]

Jax lets out a shrill cry in alarm! "YIP!" Why are the ghouls dressed in suits? And why is he only a few feet away from one?! Jax hurls his dagger at the undead seated in front of him, aiming to kill it (again) before it can react. The black blade lands solidly into the ghoul's side and then flies back to Jax's hand.

[sblock=Jax stat block/actions][sblock=actions]Surprise: Ranged Basic Attack vs Ghoul3A hits AC 21 for 26 damage. I forgot to include the -2 stench penalty in the roll, but it still hits. Jax has CA from First Strike since he's acting before the ghoul.

OOC: I think the last fight with the uberzombie was a milestone, so I gave Jax an AP. Let me know if I'm wrong!

 

[nerdytenor]

One look at the undead is enough to spring Dorn into action. He conjures an explosion of cold in the midst of the ghouls. The leader is unaffected, but two of the other ghouls are blasted with freezing ice. (Ice Dragon's Teeth (vs ref) misses Teresa, hits Ghoul and Ghoul 2a. The ghouls take 21 cold damage, an additional 3 damage from furious assault, and are slowed TENT).
