[Adventure] Marna is Missing (DM: pacdidj, Judge: renau1g)

[samursus]

"I'm getting too old for this...."

Initiative=8

 

[MetaVoid]

Init (1d20+8=24)

OOC: I re-read few pages back...I can cooment on player attrition. In my first (and last ) adventure we had six starting finished with 3 and we lost DM too Only experienced player (as in 2000+ posts) in the group commented that he desrerved such by taking the group with under hundred posts per player(that included me at the time )

 

[pacdidj]

[sblock=ooc]Alright, PCs are up first with MetaVoid's high init roll of 24! No changes to the map yet. Post your turns in any order, they will resolve in the order you post. I'll update with enemy actions once all PCs are in.

The croc has total concealment and is currently invisible to the party, as it is hidden. Anyone new to the game or in need of a refresher might want to check out the attack penalties and "Targeting What You Can't See" on page 281 of the PHB. Also, any weapon attacks made into the water, unless made by a spear or crossbow, will take a -2 penalty.[/sblock]

 

[Luinnar]

Lets show that croc what you are made of Draco!

The Dragonling leaps off Alnar's sholder and soars in the direction of the crocodile. Despite its small frame he lets out a mighty roar.

Minor: Draco Active.
Move: Draco to A 15.
Standard: Thundering Roar. Roll. 18 (-2 if the low light effects AOE) vs fort, 15 damage. If hit -2 to attack rolls until end of my next turn.

Draco's roar pushes away a large quantity of water, causing a huge splash, and momentarily revealing that there is nothing within the first 10 feet below the surface. The croc must have swam farther out into the water.

OOC: Not a miss necessarily, just not in range of the blast. Ferris and Jezebel are up.

[sblock=AoE]For anyone using an AoE power, especially a blast, please put both the origin square and diameter of the blast (from NW to SE) in your post. For example, in this map, Draco's blast originates in A15, and the diameter is -C12 to -A14. And if you're targeting something at altitude or at depth, please indicate if you'd like to aim the blast up or down. In this case I'm assuming down is a safe bet, since that's where the croc is.[/sblock]

 

[samursus]

[sblock=ooc] Just waiting for the tank to move so I can support them... plus Ferris is a little gun-shy after the last battle... he prefers to fight in a group. [/sblock]

 

[Dekana]

Jezebel wades very slowly into the shallows, straining to maintain her balance between the plate armor and the flowing water. She prepares to place a demon's curse on the croc' once it shows itself.

Ferris steps back to allow Jezebel in his place. He pulls out a javelin and with a quick prayer to Dayna, prepares to launch it at anything coming out of the water.

As he does so, he whispers a childhood rhyme..."Fishy, fishy, in the brook...."

Readying herself for action, Jezebel doesn't see the croc until it's right beneath her. It bursts forth from the water and snaps at the tiefling, its tooth-filled jaws glancing off her plate armor. The tiefling responds, leveling a divine challenge against the beast, and Ferris throws a javelin that lodges into the creature's scaly hide, causing it to wince in pain and let out an angry roar.

Hearing it's mate sound the alarm, another, slightly smaller croc (though still about 12' from nose to tail) bursts forth from the cave. She rapidly swims across the surface of the water, and with her powerful jaws tosses aside the small mangrove tree uprooted by Alnar. She is followed by a stream of what must be her young exiting the cave. Most of them dive below the surface of the water immediately, several though swim quickly across the water, leaping up several feet in the air and snapping at Draco. One of them seizes the dragonling in its jaws, only to have it disappear in a puff of smoke.
