[QUOTE="ThirdWizard, post: 6047852, member: 12037"] Soon... soon... And... wow. You must have learned to roll from the ghoul. I'll roll his Athletics in defense. EDIT: He easily moves out of the arc of the sword. I think we all saw that coming anyway. [MENTION=54988]Dragonwriter[/MENTION] [MENTION=478]Thanee[/MENTION] Whichever one of you goes out first must open the door, which counts as a barrier between zones. That means whoever goes first won't be able to take any kind of action. However, the second person out will be able to. That would mean that Keira who is first in Initiative order between the two of you would open the door. Unfortunately, there is a ghoul in wait who will attack whoever is bringing up the rear, in this case Logan. This is an attempt at an Ambush. You two already know he's there, but not exactly where he's coming from. What I'm going to do here is [i]not[/i] allow the hiding ghoul to have surprise, but to instead have a tag on the aspect O[SIZE="1"]UT[/SIZE] O[SIZE="1"]F[/SIZE] S[SIZE="1"]IGHT[/SIZE], which he created through his last Stealth check as a maneuver (if it beats Logan's Alertness). I'll roll the Stealth. EDIT: Pretty good Logan doesn't see the ghoul leap at him from behind until the last second. Logan is able to defend himself, but the ghoul has the advantage of the tag above, which it is invoking to get a +2 to the attack roll. EDIT2: Roll of 7 + 2 (invoke) for a grand total of 9 that Logan is defending against. The claws + strength power is another +4 so that's a total of 13 stress! Remember, you can use Weapons to defend yourself from Weapons and Fists attacks, so that would be your best defense skill here. Now might be a good time to invoke an aspect in order to add to the defense against the attack. Really Good With a Hammer would apply, and Big Son of a Wyld Ogre might make sense depending on how you narrate it, if you want to spend the FATE. Logan's got 3 FATE burning a hole in his pocket at the moment, though, so it might not be a bad idea. Your call, though. After that, Logan still has a main action he can use at a -1 penalty if he would like to attack the ghoul in turn, set up a maneuver, or something else. [/QUOTE]
