Adventure:Land Ho! FWBTHW (DM:H.M.Gimlord,Judge:Ozymandias79)

[Theroc]

As Rujah is roused, he immediately hefts his hammer as he snarls in anger, seeing the undead monstrosity hovering over him, he rises in a surge of rage, striking out as the waters around him roiled slightly, hammer slamming towards the nearest horror.

[H.M.Gimlord]

Rujah rouses to an uneasy sight, from one battle to another. At first, he despairs, but Riardon's words provide courage and healing.

The rest of the party ready themselves, and prepare for the onslaught of the undead. The boats draw closer, and yet another barrage of javelins comes down on them. Jin, Talon, Dayna, and Riardon each absorb their share of steel rain, but shake as the first wave of decaying creatures crawls over the rail. Jin swings twice, blade-over-blade, quickly dispatching one, but missing the second, which proves to be a painful error. The drowned one bites into Jin’s right arm as he climbs up the side of the boat, causing blood to pour from the gash. Fenwick is ready with his axe, but the axe doesn’t seem as ready. It strikes the water, and the orc is forced to reposition himself for another swing. As he does, one of the acquatic zombies attempts to follow the lead of the other. He bits into Fenwick’s arm, but his teeth shatter harmlessly on the orc’s bicep and fall out onto the floor of the boat. Yet another zombie attempts to grab Dayna, but the wolf is too far back from the rail for the zombie to get a good reach. His bony fingers snap on thin air.

From the front of the boat, one of the drowned corpses climbs over the rail and moves toward Riardon, but as he does so, he loses his footing, collapsing in a heap at the Eladrin’s feet. Fearful, the decaying body casts a cowardly eye up at the warlord, expecting the worst.

Rujah is assaulted, from two sides, but he’s fresh and confident. They’re no danger to him…yet.

The party, being busy with the starboard side of the boat is taken completely by surprise when four more zombies manage to climb over the rail on the port side. They manage harm to Fenwick and Talon, but the one in the stern trips over a dead comrade and goes down, struggling, but unable to stand just yet.

As the battle is progressing, none in the party fail to notice that more lights are appearing off the stern of their boat. The sound of creaking timbers, now becomes audible over the cacophony of battle. Lamps are being lit, and as they are, they begin to illuminate a large naval craft one segment at a time, until it becomes apparent that the ship has been extremely close for some time.

Gruff voices are heard from the deck, though the deck is so high that no one can be seen, and a huge anchor drops from the bow causing the calm, foggy water to heave violently around the smaller boats.

Jin casts an eye, quickly in the other direction, to the west, and swears that he catches a glimpse of their dwarven charge. He’s lying tied up on floor of the boat off their own bow.

[/sblock][sblock=OOC]OK guys. Break out the area effects. I'm getting tired of posting for umptimillion zombies! I also decided to move the fog to the background. It's obscuring, in the game, but in RL it's a pain.[/sblock]

 

[BenBrown]

Fenwick wheels to face the new foes. "Stay out of boat!" he yells and swings his axe high in an arc. It descends, whistling slightly, then connects with the foe with a great crack, dropping his foe. Fenwick howls along with it, with a furious roar that echoes resoundingly with a tangible force, shattering at least two more of the undead creatures. Unfortunately, Fenwick has overbalanced himself, and falls into the bottom of the boat. Grumbling, he climbs unsteadily back to his feet, and prepares for the next onslaught.

[Tenchuu]

The ronin ignores his injury, letting the blood pour from his arm. "Die Oni!"

With a flick of the wrists, he dispatched two foes in the water, including the one that bit his arm. Out of habit, he flicked his wrists again; it was a move designed to clean the blood from his blades, but it mostly just flung his own blood from his arm. Jin smiled menacingly, and taunted, "Who among you is next? Your end is long overdue."

He lifted his injured arm over the edge of the boat, letting his blood drip into the water, thinking this would drawn them near. All the while, Jin readied another attack.

[sblock=Readied Actions]Tenchuu. Readying an action is a standard action regardless of the type of action being readied. Would you like to spend an action point or would you like to simply abandon the idea?[/sblock]

 

[Phoenix8008]

OOC HMG: Remeber, due to Talon's Beast Protector feat, any melee attack (not a hit, any attack) on Dayna from adjacent to her gives Talon an OA at that target even if he's not adjacent to it. Not sure if that would result in one or more less zombies out of the crowd depending on how many attacked Dayna during their turn. I'll hopefully be able to post later tonight for full actions.

[sblock=abandon readied action]Crap. Consider it abandoned then. A shame, it was a waste of my attack roll. [/sblock]

[sblock=OOC]Sorry. Forgot about that. Go ahead and post an OA against F4. It would do little good to post one against H5 since he just got howled to death by Fenwick !. I'll be sure to remember this on future posts.[/sblock]

Riardon

"Rujah! Come over here. They are to many. We have to regroup!" Riardon shouts as he slams one of the undead thing out of his way.

[sblock=WD]Thanks for pointing that out. I must have deleted half a line or so in the status post.

Riardon's status is correct 27/39.
He was attacked 3 times (1 hit, 2 misses)
Riardon took 4 damage (as the status and mechanics indicate)
Rujah took no damage that round (primarily due to his +5 to AC (SW and Class Feature))

Sorry about the mixup. I edited the Mechanics summary to reflect this.[/sblock]
