Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dunamin" data-source="post: 5104062" data-attributes="member: 57529">Seeing the dragon’s acidic breath unleashed to devastating effect, Woe cannot help but entertain his fantasies of exploiting it as a pet again.“Ooo, imagine the possibilities with pet fighting rings! Forget about win-or-lose outcomes, we’re taking eat-or-dissolve!” His sidetracked mind brings another consideration up and he casts a long look over at Kathalia. “Oh, uh, except that would be wrong, of course... yes, very wrong.”The warrior turns his attention to the task at hand, does a quick superficial stretching exercise, and sizes up the situation.“You’re not looking too hot over there, knife-ears... Well, one of you might, but we don’t have time for that right now.”“Now move over and let a real man come through!”Woe circles around and wolf-whistles, catching the dragon’s attention. Just as it turns he rushes in and dropkicks the dragon directly solar plexus, knocking it around in a reverse somersault that could rival a professional diving gymnast - except for the horribly inappropriate landing (failing grade).Conversely, Woe not only somehow manages to land on his feet, but actually looks to be in even better condition than pre-dropkick, a fact cemented as he effortlessly shrugs off the dragon’s imposing influence.“Roll over! Now stay! ... Good boy.”[sblock=Actions and Tactics]Delay: Until after Atreus, hoping that he will move to G12 and ready to attack after Woe (that way we end up flanking; see below).Minor: Stretch.Move: O13.Standard: Charge with Knockdown Assault to J12, hitting Fort <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2422912/" target="_blank">24 for 4</a> damage and knocking it prone. Thanks to Stirring Shout, Woe also heals fully.End of Turn: Woe <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2422913/" target="_blank">saves</a> vs attack penalty.Now the dragon is prone and marked, giving it -4 to attacks and a smack if it attacks anyone but Woe. That should be incentive enough.I know Kathalia wanted to put Woe in J13 for flanking, but that would unfortunately set up a 3-person gift for the dragon’s recently recharged breath weapon. She hits solidly, regardless. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Only a personal via Comeback Strike, though. Woe already used Inspiring Word to heal Hacker.Actually, she’s at 22 hp (soon to be 12 hp), since Stirring Shout let her recover 4 hp when she hit. Considering that she immobilized, I’d say her best bet is Twin Strike (or other multi-attack powers), to trigger Stirring Shout as much as possible.<a href="http://www.enworld.org/wiki/index.php/L4W:PC:Woe_Chinua_%28Dunamin%29" target="_blank">Woe Chinua</a> - Human Fighter 3Passive Perception 12, Passive Insight 12AC 20, Fort 19, Reflex 17, Will 14HP 46/46, Bloodied 23, Surge Value 11, Surges 10/11Speed 5, Initiative +3Action Points: 1, Second WindPowers: Cleave, Knockdown Assault, Tide of Iron; Pass Forward; Spear of Myrdroon's Shard, Heavy Throwing Shield; Passing Attack, Rain of Blows; Comeback Strike, <s>Inspiring Word</s>; Spear of Myrdroon's Shard, Heavy Throwing Shield[/sblock]</blockquote>
