Break of Dawn [Manzanita judging] COMPLETED

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Quarion Holimion, Elven Druid 3 (HP: 13/17, AC: 18)

Quarion doesn't even flinch (22) at the poison of the rats' bites. He throws his hands forward and makes a motion like he's calling something up out of the ground... Suddenly, the earth breaks free from the rubble above it and rushes towards the swarm of rats, slamming against the vermin and crushing more than a few (20 atk, 9 dmg).

OOC: Switching out fog cloud for a level 2 summon nature's ally. 2 rounds left.

 

[B4cchus]

The earth elemental that Quarion summoned erupts from the ground and slams into rats, squashing the majority of them. The remaining rats squeal in fright or maybe anger. They start.. continue biting at anything within reach.
In all this chaos more rats seem to pour from the rubble and through the walls, joining thier 'friends'.
ooc: Mordik takes 4 damage, Eanos takes 3, the small earth elemental takes 4.
Mordik and Eanos roll fort saves again.
You figure that the amount of rats is now roughly twice the number that the swarm started with.

Eanos is up!
Then Quarion, Aletheia, Mordik and finally Odno.

 

[jkason]

Eanos, human monk

The monk growls in frustration beneath the bites of the rats, but does not yield. He lashes out again, and this time one of his kicks manages to throw some of the rats against a wall.

"Ayratha rewards strength in the face of obstacles, but I think we might do better to retreat if these rats keep piling on," he says, looking back to the others outside the mass of rodents.

[sblock=OOC]Fort Save = 23
Flurry Attacks: 11, 22. Damage: 10, 4[/sblock]

 

[NakuruSai]

After the rat bites, Mordik somehow seems even more sick.

fort save; rat swarm bite (1d20+3=6)

(ooc: IC doesn't like Mordik recently it seems. ouch!)

"Ayratha rewards strength in the face of obstacles, but I think we might do better to retreat if these rats keep piling on," he says, looking back to the others outside the mass of rodents.

"Their number can't be infinite, that would violate some universal laws" says Odno "But let's hope it isn't too big either"

Before the new rats can join the already existant swarm Odno draws a flask of acid and throws it in the middle of the rats.

[sblock=ooc]I imagine it's possible to throw a flask of acid to the second swarm and not affect those fighting in the front lines. In that case, the touch attack roll and damage is 10 and 4, respectively[url], which means 6 damage in case it hits. If not it scatters to square [url=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1114908]3 and deals 1 point of acid damage to those within 5 feet.

If it's not possible to throw the flask and not harm the front liners, continue doing the same as I've been doing. [/sblock]

 

[B4cchus]

Eanos hits a bunch of rats with his second attack, Morik freezes in disgust of the swarm and Odno throws a flask of acid into the whirling mass of rats.
Many of the rats squeel and die as the acid burns them. Mordik and Eanos also take 1 damage from acid splashes.
Aletheia's just stands ready to smack any rodent that comes too close.
Next: Quarion and his elemental friend.

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Quarion rushes forward with his earthen ally, pulling his staff up over his head. When he reaches the swarm, he begins to bash the creatures over the head, and his summoned ally does so as well.

OOC: Can't roll IC 'til tonight. Roll for me or wait, sorry!

 

[B4cchus]

Quarion rushes forward and lands a solid blow on some of the rats.
His earth elemental, however, slams down on the remaining rodents, completely crushing them under it's weight. One or two remaining rats scurry away hrough the debris and seems quiet again.

ooc: the elemental crits. all rats are either dead or fled. Yay! Xp will come shortly

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Hi from Japan! Aletheia will heal with the wand anyone who needs it)

 

[Someone]

"I regret any harm I may have caused you with the alchemical vitriol" says Odno. "But it looked like I could burn them without affecting you. In any case, I wonder what may have impelled the rats to attack us."

ooc: As soon everyone is ready, Odno will inspect the well.
