Ashin's Commission: The Great Escape!

[Xael]

Almayce casts Glitterdust at the afflicted attacking Hulgyr, if he can affect at least three of them without affecting friendlies. If not, he delays after the afflicted to see who's still standing.

"I'll have to agree with Michael here. Do you have any way to blast the people at the back from this distance?", Almayce asks while glancing at Zaeryl.

OOC: Erekose13: Remember to add Bless to those attacks, if you didn't already. 10ft radius and Will save DC 16 for the Glitterdust.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Since we're all in this together and you all may perish anyway, we shall tell you a secret about psionics...do keep it to yourselves for the most part though please? Psions are weak at long range attacks, very much so compared to those who use arcane magic. Our attacks can be more powerful, but we have to get closer, and that may be tricky for the moment. Of course, we can send some constructs over there soon enough."

(OOC: Cannot hit three enemies without hitting a friendly, so I'll have you delay. That means Ironwolf and Hulgyr go)

 

[Erekose13]

Unable to reply in Remorhaz form, Eternity is unable to state that she is coming to that realization, but will seek to rectify at least the getting closer part for herself.

 

[Patlin]

Ironwolf, unfortunately, is surrounded. Not only does that mean that he will take a number of hits if he doesn't move, but it also means he's bolloxing up Almayce's targeting options. With the number of opponents about, he decides it's more important to deal with those issues than to attack for the moment.

He will expend his psionic focus in order to manifest Greater Concealing Amorpha defensively without chance of failure. Using the total concealment it provides, he will move 20' from the enemies without provoking any attacks of opportunity.

[sblock=Rules for reference]"You can’t execute an attack of opportunity against an opponent with total concealment, even if you know what square or squares the opponent occupies. "

"the quasi-real membrane so distorts your image and actual position that you gain total concealment"

"When you are psionically focused, you can expend your focus on any single Concentration check you make thereafter. When you expend your focus in this manner, your Concentration check is treated as if you rolled a 15."[/sblock]

Ooc

I suppose an elephant might be familiar?
Doesn't matter much at this point, I suppose.

(OOC: Looks good, Patlin--I was familiar with all those rules, but quoting always helps. Note, of course, that Ironwolf only has three guys attacking him left alive--he could have brought that down to just one or two if he attacked.

Anyway, Hulgyr now)

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: And a special addendum to Almayce--Glitterdust will now work for the three that had been attacking Ironwolf without hitting a friendly)

Clearing the field for the blasters was indeed part of the plan. These guys are nasty, letting them get full attacks would be a *bad* idea.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Though Glitterdust works well, Zaeryl's not going to be blasting. The Large ones are difficult because when a Large critter fights another Large critter at reach, there's a lot of empty space, basically a ring of width 10 feet around the encircled defender (Ironwolf in this case), which wastes AoE. Z figures that if the Astral Constructs can drop 1 Large per construct per round, it'll get more mileage, plus they can then be used to figure out what the deal is with those people in the back by sending the ACs forward to see what happens.

I'm guessing E is going to do the whole melee as a giant monster thing and avoid blasting as well, and Michael likes to smash things now. Hopefully Almayce brought enough AoE to cover )

 

[B4cchus]

Hulgyr roars savagely and start hacking wildly at the afflcited surrounding them.

ooc: Full attack.
First attack (on wounded afflicted): attack 18, damage 28
Cleave: (if the wouded one drops): attack: 19, damage: 34
Second attack (if the second one still stands on him): Attack: 29, damage: 27
Cleave: (if the second one dropped): attack: 26, damage: 29

Just gotta love great cleave.
