And the Uppity Shoeshine... (DM:twilsemail; Judge: renau1g)

[Luinnar]

OOC: Init=18 Kaz will start at F4

 

[Mewness]

OOC: Scarm will start in F3 I guess.

 

[twilsemail]

GM: @Dekana , I’m pretty sure Sprout can still be out and about. I could be wrong. If he is, let me know where you’d like him.

The party manages to arrange themselves without provoking anything in the chamber before Scarm calls out. Two of the younger looking blue creatures seem to consider his words before the eldest among them (G13) shouts back, “No! He won’t let us. It must be done!” With that, it pulls a large brass bell off of its hip.

Taking a cue from their apparent leader, the other blue meanies to the same. They all turn to the party with predatory grins.

GM: Waiting on initiative before filling in the rest. I’m pretty sure some PCs will act before these guys, though.

[Dekana]

OOC: I4 looks good. Thanks.

 

[ronakshah2000]

Yishim's golden eyes begin to glow, portending an epic release of arcane power.

 

[Luinnar]

OOC: Hmm, I could teleport the Otyugh away or towards the party for a beatdown. Any tactics ideas?

 

[ronakshah2000]

OOC: I'm going to move the Otyugh towards us and away from the water. From the Zone I created in I7, I can pull Burst 4 back to the zone next turn. Whack away, but be aware of the reach 3

Yishim creates an illusion of grand riches and the creature's greatest desires just in front of Fredrock. The Otyugh and two of the blue creatures are drawn irresistibly to this treasure, and find themselves unable to move away.

For the remaining creatures, Yishim turns the water to a deadly set of octopus tentacles, which grasp at their skin and slow their progress.

[sblock=Actions]
Standard: Visions of Avarice on I7, Hits Otugh, D10 and F11. Pull D10 to I7, F11 to I8, and Otyugh to G7/H8. All three are immobilized. A zone is created in I7 (no effect).
Action Point: Action Surged Enlarged Grasping Shadows on H12 Hits Blue guys in H10 I12 G13 (last one with Heroic action) for 11-2=9 and all are slowed.[/sblock]

Scarmiglione wades into the water (ugh) and utters a horrible high-pitched "SQUEEEeeeEEeeEEEEeee" that sends ribbons of light snaking around the creatures that Yishim has enchanted with his spell. He follows it up with a sharp "SQUAWK!" that is actually sort of a relief after the previous noise.

[sblock=actions]Move: to H5

[Xeterog]

OOC: I can push any of the 3 I hit up to 2 squares. only one I'm sure I hit is the one in I7 (If a 29 misses, we may be in trouble). If I do, they would take 2 more damage from Blazing Starfall, and if I hit all three, might be able to bunch them up for more AoE's (do we have many left in the turn?). advice?

Fredrock steps up to the walking trash can and blue creatures that came over to the pile of creatures, he looks at the big tentacled thing. You shouldn't be eating things that can talk and ring bells, why don't you try munching on me for a bit, tho I reckon I'm a bit tougher then they are..., he says as he lets out with all his strength.
[sblock=actions]
Move: shift to I6
Minor: Battlemind Demand to mark the otyugh
Standard: using 2pp, Bull's Strength (blast 3) vs. the three that were pulled: (they have -2 defenses from Scram's wave of light).
22 vs I8 was minon and not there, 31 vs I7 (blue boss) hits, 21 vs Otyugh misses
(note, I lowered my attack value vs I7 and I8 to 10 by mistake, it should be +12, thus the different numbers above)

Will push the Blue Boss from I to J8, causing 2 more damage as he leaves the blazing starfall area.

NOTE: Battle Resilience (dr 7 UENT) will pop the 1st time I'm hit or missed in the combat.

[Luinnar]

OOC: I'm going to use Aspect of Might on Otyugh, so as long as it is within 7 squares of Kaz, forced movement is fine by me
