B6: The Veiled Society - IC

[kinem]

ooc: Assuming you ask at the guildhall, you find that the mages sometimes send messages to prominent citizens, and have a system in place. It's possible to have a sealed letter delivered to Simion Torenescu for 8 gp. That's actually a good deal as you don't really know where to find him. Unless you decline, I'll assume you split the cost.

The journey back to the docks takes a long, tiring time, as you have to cross some crowded, muddy neighborhoods. You are more than ready for a good meal!

Finally, you recognize the streets near the docks, near the inn where you inquired yesterday. The streets are not so crowded here this afternoon.

Suddenly, something flashes past, just barely missing Caridoc.

A hooded man is standing on a side street and furiously cranking his crossbow for another shot. He's about 150' away from you.

ooc: PCs to act

 

[ghostcat]

Caridoc plods along behind the others, quietly muttering to himself that it was past his mealtime and he was hungry. Suddenly something flashed passed his ear and he forgot his hunger and automatically entered combat mode.

Quickly reviewing his current spells he decided that he doesn't have any offensive spells that could reach that far. Instead he mutters a brief pray and all his companions feel a lot braver.

[sblock=OOC]Cast Bless Each ally gains a +1 morale bonus on attack rolls and on saving throws against fear effects. Lasts 30 rounds.

[sblock=ooc]I'm wondering what's behind Caridoc's sudden sex change [/sblock]

 

[jkason]

Barek Fhald, half-orc bard

Suddenly, something flashes past, just barely missing Caridoc.

A hooded man is standing on a side street and furiously cranking his crossbow for another shot. He's about 150' away from you.

ooc: PCs to act

As Caridoc's magic affects him, Barek smiles. "Feels like a good song," he says, then falls silent, running toward cover as he draws his dagger.

OOC: Since bless and inspire courage both give morale bonuses, I don't believe they stack, so no point starting a bardic performance. Draw weapon as part of movement, and since he's down a side street, I assume there must be buildings at or near the corners. Double move as necessary to give Barek as much cover or concealment as he can from those buildings while trying to also close some of the gap between them. Will add an initiative roll after posting

 

[kinem]

OOC: No need to roll individual initiative. I roll group initiative. I guess we haven't had that many combats

OOC: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/bard#TOC-Inspire-Courage-Su- A 1st level bard can use his performance to inspire courage in his allies (including himself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to perceive the bard’s performance. An affected ally receives a +1 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +1 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls.

 

[jkason]

OOC: Sorry, forgot how we were doing initiative in this one. And d'oh! Well, I did see a morale bonus, it just wasn't on the attacks heh. If possible, then, I'll start Barek singing if he can do that and find cover.

 

[kinem]

ooc: OK. It's a morale bonus in 3.5, btw.

Barek ducks into the recessed entryway of a bread-bakery as he begins singing an inspiring song.

ooc: Celythia, Rezak to act

 

[HolyMan]

"I's get'n tired of be'n shoots at every darn day in dis city." Rezak mutters to noone inparticular. He then starts looking around to make sure the would be assassin is alone.

[sblock=OOC] Perception to see if I notice the red haired dude or any other masked men about. Delay until I know the crossbowman is alone. [/sblock]

 

[kinem]

You see some other people on the street but they're all starting to run for cover or trying to dissappear indoors.

Other than the shooter you see no other hooded men, and you don't see any red-heads either.

 

[HolyMan]

"Flush 'ems out. I'll takes dae rear." Rezak says moving cautiously.

[sblock=OOC] Then Rezak will go into Total Defense and start moving towards the building. Once there and not in crossbowman's line of sight he will run around to the back to cut off his escape. [/sblock]
