CLOSED Pathfinder: Rise of the Runelords, Burnt Offerings

OOC: I waited a bit for Mandraiv, but in his absence will assume a move for him. Update for the surprise round will follow shortly!

Rhun charges forward, bashing his shoulder into the goblin on the extreme left, and then follows up with a morningstar that hits, almost, being deflected by the surprised goblin at the very last moment!

Jovik dashes forward, rapier advanced, but slips on what looks like some festering excretion from the goblin dog.

Jokad lets our a mighty roar, and cuts hard across the body of the goblin commando. The goblin is injured, but not dead.

Mandraiv swings his mighty morningstar at one of the central goblins, but misses .

Kael lets loose his last magic missile, watching it loop out of his hand like a flash of electric thread. It hits the goblin commando, already bleeding from Jokad's attack, and topples the goblin off of his goblin dog. Dead as a rather dead thing.

Goblin commando is dead!

You can see people press their faces up against the windows of the White Deer, looking out at the fight. Their faces show a mix of fear and excitement. Behind the goblins the nobleman crawls a few inches further into the alley, but appears too frozen in fear to really help.

OOC: Round 1, 4 goblins, 1 goblin dog. Please all roll for initiative, and select and roll for action.
 






Mandraiv will fight defensively and try to aid Jokad's attacks, seeing how the mighty Shoanti warrior hits harder than he possibly could. Maybe in his youth he could have competed with the muscled fighter, but his strength is not what it used to be.

Aid 12 (success!)
 

Danth Brinfield, round 1 actions

Danth continues swinging his morningstar against the goblin foes.



AC 17, HP 10/10 (1 non-lethal)

Initiative: 7
Attack: 13
13 didn't hit last time, so I am sure it doesn't this time.
 

We goblins are mad! We liked our Commando! You guys SUCK!

OOC: I have rolled init and attack for Danth.
Order of attack: Jokad (init 22), Kael (init 21), Goblins x4 (init 19), Goblin dog (init 18), Danth (init 13 ), Jovik (init 5). Mandraiv is aiding Jokad.

Rough formation:
Goblin, Goblin, Goblin Dog, Goblin, Goblin
Danth, Jokad, Jovik
Kael, Mandraiv (sort of between Jokad and Jovik, but hanging back a little)

IC: Jokad swings hard, but catches his weapon on the wall of the White Deer inn, causing a fine spray of dust to fly out in the arc that his weapon was meant to take. His attack is ruined!

Kael sends forth a bolt of icy vapor, hitting the goblin dog, which whines as the left side of its face takes a direct hit, freezing the putrid flesh there. (Goblin Dog -3hp, still going strong).

The goblins attack. The left two swing for Danth, the goblin dog and goblin to the right of it attack Jokad, and the one to the far right lunges at Jovik.

OOC: 20, 20, 10, 6, 12.

IC: Danth struggles to block the two goblins who pounce at him, finding that the first swings inside his defences, hitting hard against his shoulder. There is pain, and it distracts for a moment, offering the second goblin a route in. This one hacks down on Danth's chest, catching at the edge of his armour and shedding a wide spray of blood. Danth is clearly hurting! (9 damage in total). The goblins woot in delight. They are about to kill a longshank!

The goblin dog scents the blood, and it seems to distract him from his attack. It snarls and bites forward at Jokad, but the mighty Shoanti easily knees its head away. Jovik dances away from the goblin that lunges at him. It will need to do better than that to hit the young man, buzzing on his first taste of real adventure.

Danth knows that he cannot risk casting a heal spell on himself in combat. It would open him up to attack and would be the end of him. But he hurts, hurts real bad. In times like these, attack is the best for of defence!

He hits!, and kills it!

Goblin down! 3 to go (and the goblin dog)

Jovik may have been slow to respond, perhaps focusing too much on avoiding getting hit, but at the last moment he spots an opening in the defences of the goblin that lunged at him and slips forward with his rapier. He feels the fine point of the blade plunge into the goblin's eyeball, feels the blade tense and bend slightly as it hits the back of the skull, and then slips it free. The goblin slides silently to the ground. Not even a groan escaped its lips.

Another goblin dead! 2 to go (and the goblin dog)

OOC: Next round. Please roll initiative, and decide on actions. Danth is badly in need of healing, but otherwise the fight is going well.
PLEASE SEE NEXT POST: I had already rolled and written up Danth's actions, so they stick. The good news is he killed a goblin! Sorry about this. You posted as I was in the midst of posting, so I missed it.
