CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk ALPHA Game (ToEE)

The stout wooden door flies inward from the kick of Coraine's heavy boot. Two smoking torches light the room beyond the door...a furnished room, holding a long table with a bench to each side, a couple of chairs, and various pegs and hangers mounted to the walls.

Four men stand within, dressed for battle but obviously not expecting it. They wear bronzed half-plate, and have their weapons near at hand, but are completely surprised by your sudden assault. One stands in the archway leading into another chamber to the north, one to the south, and two sit at across the table to the east. These men wear brown surcoats over their armor, embossed with a black triangle.

Coraine doesn't miss a beat. He steps forward and aims a high, killing stroke at the warrior standing in the northern doorway. Those inhabiting such a place must surely be aligned with evil. As he does so, he calls on the god to strike down his foes.

Dara

Dara launches towards the temple guards and swings her blade against the first she can reach.


OOC: (Partial) Charge straight ahead against #2.

Two axe steps forward and delivers a one-two stroke with his axe.

OOC: Looks like he can step forward 5 feet and make a full attack on #4. But in surprise rounds, you only get a standard action? If so, he'd only make a single attack.

AC 19; double axe: +9 1d8+6 or two attacks at +7, 1d8+4 (or +2)

"Well, well, what do we have here?" Otto says, trundling into the room. Drawing his rapier, the halfling takes aim at the closest opponent.

Really not much of a combatant, Marco bides his time and watches as the others charge forward. He briefly considers trying to squeeze a shot off in these tight quarters, but decides not to waste his time.

Surprise Round

Coraine doesn't miss a beat. He steps forward and aims a high, killing stroke at the warrior standing in the northern doorway. Those inhabiting such a place must surely be aligned with evil. As he does so, he calls on the god to strike down his foes. Hieroneous answers his servant's call, and the paladin's battle axe sheers metal and flesh, cutting the foe down in a single blow.

[sblock=FOr Boddynock]
Just so you can brag 'Nock, you just took out a 4th level Fighter in a single hit.
[/sblock]

Dara launches towards the temple guards and swings her blade against the first she can reach, moving around the edge of the wooden table to get into position. Her heavy falchion cuts through the man's armor, and although it doesn't fell him, it is easy to see that he is severely wounded.

Two axe steps forward and delivers a stroke with his axe, cutting a slash across his foe's shoulder.

[sblock=For Two Axe]
As Two Axe delivers his attack, he catches sight of another guard some thirty feet down the southern corridor, just where the passage angles away out of sight.
[/sblock]

Ragnok strikes at the last of the guards, but only manages to graze him with Norryjar.

Verdis takes aim at the black triangle on a surcoated fellow and looses his crossbow bolt, but his aim is off and the missile shatters against the room's stone wall.

"Well, well, what do we have here?" Otto says, trundling into the room. Drawing his rapier, the halfling takes aim at the closest opponent. The halfling's thrust in on target, but his slim blade is unable to penetrate the Temple guard's heavy armor.

Really not much of a combatant, Marco bides his time and watches as the others charge forward. He briefly considers trying to squeeze a shot off in these tight quarters, but decides not to waste his time.

Combat - Round 1

The three temple guard's recover from the shock of being surprised quickly, taking the offensive as they grab weapons and attack you.

One whips out his longsword and aims a powerful two-handed blow at Two Axe, striking the half-orc a critical blow and opening a deep, bloody gash in his side. "More to the South!" shouts Two Axe, as he continues to rip into his opponet with both sides of his axe. The first side slashes another wound in the guard, but the man dodges the second strike.

[sblock=For Two Axe]

Two Axe notes that the guard to the south dodges back around the corner, out of sight.

[/sblock]

The guard that Dara slashed brandishes his battleaxe and strikes back at her, grazing her thigh with the blade.

The last guard attacks Ragnok with his morningstar, striking the dwarf solidly.

Otto fakes out his foe, and takes advantage of the opening to thrust his rapier into the guard's stomach.

Letting his crossbow fall to hang by its strap, Verdis calls upon his magic to toss a blast at the same target. His blast of arcane energy strikes home, but doesn't seem to do much damage to his target.

Coraine stands for a moment in awe of the power of his god. Then he pivots, bringing the momentum of his movement to bear in the strike against Dara's opponent. His axe cleaves through yet more armor and flesh, and a second foe falls beneath the paladin's blade.

Marco continues to watch the slaughter with a morbid fascination, noting how each man dies of his wounds. He also keeps an eye back out the door, making sure no surprises come from behind.

Seeing Coraine steal her kill, Dara turns to the next guard in line. Her falchion slashes a bloody wound deep into the man's bicep.

Ragnok aims another blow at his opponent, but fails to cut through the thick metal of the man's armor.




I hope nobody minds, but I think I am going to switch formats to where I post the round before you post your actions. That way I can update it as each player posts for their PC...is this okay with you guys?
