CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA Game (ToEE)

[InVinoVeritas]

"Yes," Ciaran booms, "You are all cursed!"

He spreads his arms wide, grasping at the tendrils of reality. He pulls together a combination of crackling sparks and forms a ball--much larger than previously. He tosses the ball toward the back of the room and lets it explode forth, covering the entire room with a shower of sparks.

Cast a Sudden Widened (thanks for not using it last time!) Glitterdust at the lower lefthand corner of AW74.

[Dire Lemming]

Seeing Aeron attempting to hold off the enemy by himself in a space too tight for him to enter, Shoon quickly takes a Sai from his belt and hurls it at the nearest foe, then steps back to give his ally room to retreat.

(Throw a Sai Attack +5, Damage 1d6+1. Then move back to BA-69 and pray Aeron manages to retreat.)

Combat round ? (I lost track)

"Yes," Ciaran booms, "You are all cursed!" He spreads his arms wide, grasping at the tendrils of reality. He pulls together a combination of crackling sparks and forms a ball--much larger than previously. He tosses the ball toward the back of the room and lets it explode forth, covering the entire room with a shower of sparks. Several of the enemy groan and clutch at their eyes, blinded by the spell. Others though are only momentarily distracted by the magical assault.


"Yes," Aeron calls back to the human at the rear of the group. "I am the servant of Pelor, and your cult holds no sway where His servant brings His light!" The cleric swings at the foe nearest him, hoping to buy some time. The mace slaps across the gnolls chest, cracking some ribs. Aeron turns his head back, toward the others and fiercely whispers, "Go!"


"Aeron, fall back and make me some room." when the prophets falls back, Zirat will take his place and swings his chain with a good intention to shatter some skulls.


Deren remains in hiding, unseen by the enemy around the corner and his companions alike.


Seeing Aeron attempting to hold off the enemy by himself in a space too tight for him to enter, Shoon quickly takes a Sai from his belt and hurls it at the nearest foe, but is disappointed as the weapon slips from his grip, clattering to the ground only a few feet in front of him. Shoon turns and pushes past his companions, stepping back to give his ally room to retreat.


Jinx lets Sir Merrick drop gently back to the floor as he turns and opens the door ahead of him. Again grabbing Merrick by the shoulders, the gnome begins hauling the knight from the chamber, though he cannot go much further with Ciaran's webs blocking the way.


The two gnolls nearest to Aeron, neither affected by the spell, attack him with their axes. The cleric takes one blow upon his armor, and dodges the second.

Behind these two, the bugbear begins to push his way past his allied toward Aeron, while the guard captain continues to yell directions to his men.


Yellow indicates enemies blinded by Ciaran's spell.

[Dog Moon]

Deren has a feeling that while he wants to help out his friends, that it's a better idea to stay hidden at the moment. Besides, there's a door to the north leading into a room which may have a secret door to another place, allowing them to all be ambushed and annihilated. Perhaps it is better if he watches that room, he thinks to himself.

 

[InVinoVeritas]

"Now we can retreat," Ciaran calls. "I can cover our escape. You, too, Aeron, we need your healing. We will not leave until you go."

Ciaran heads back towards the room. Noting the blocked hallway, he waves his hand and the Web dissolves.

Move to AY64, Dismiss the Web spell.

 

[CanadienneBacon]

Jinx, who had been about to yell for Ciaran to dismiss the webs, grunts with surprised satisfaction. "Good enough, eh? Come, Bauble, come, ye mangy beast!" Jinx holds open the cat's wicker riding basket flap and, once the fluffy white familiar is secure, sets about hauling Sir Merrick out of the open door down the western hallway in a hope for escape. The gnome nervously casts looks over his shoulder, hoping to see the others following after him.

 

[Dire Lemming]

The others hear Shoon utter a few rather uncharacteristic words as he fumbles his Sai. He retreats and slams his fist into the wall with frustration. Deciding that it is high time they got out of there Shoon turns back to the room with the four unconscious enemies. "Deren! Where are you? Take a potion from my pack and awaken Sir Merrick. Zirat, we need to take a prisoner or all of this will have been for naught."

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

Zirat

Zirat hopes Aeron will move back so he could line a defensive wall (AZ-BA 69) and smack some heads.
If so, the champion will hold his spot as Aeron falls back and awaits side to side with anyone who will to fight with him against the foes.

 

[Dichotomy]

Hearing the words of his companions, Aeron nods stoically and swings at his foe. The cleric then moves back to give the others some room.
[sblock=OOC]Attack "d"; move to AZ-67 (with the presumption that the movement will provoke AoOs)[/sblock]

"Now we can retreat," Ciaran calls. "I can cover our escape. You, too, Aeron, we need your healing. We will not leave until you go." Ciaran heads back towards the room. Noting the blocked hallway, he waves his hand and the Web dissolves.


The web disappears, revealing the corridor beyond...and the two armored guards that appear to have been poking at the wall of webs with their blades. The door to the north of them stands open; apparently that is where they came from. Their eyes suddenly bug out as they see Jinx and Ciaran.


Hearing the words of his companions, Aeron nods stoically and swings at his foe. This time, his mace is deflected by the gnoll's wooden shield. The cleric then moves back to give the others some room. Although his retreat provokes an attack by each of the two gnolls nearby, once again he escapes unscathed.


Zirat hopes Aeron will move back so he could line a defensive wall and smack some heads. He is disappointed as the cleric rushes past him.

The gnome nervously casts looks over his shoulder, hoping to see the others following after him.


The gnolls pursue, but are met by the champion as they round the corner. Zirat's first slashes glances off the gnoll's armor, and it returns the attack with its slashing axe. Zirat's plate absorbs the blow, and the two foes stand off against one another.

Another gnoll rushes past its companion, but Zirat's chain is waiting, and slashes a ragged wound down the creature's chest. It lets out at growl of pain, and slashes its own weapon at the man. Again, the axe deflects off the heavy armor, and Zirat can only be thankful for giving up his old armor.

As the rest of the troops surge forward behind the gnolls, the human commander can be heard shouting. "You there, Nothard! Run to Commader Darik...they are fleeing. Have him take his troops around and cut them off!"





CB, would you like to change Jinx' action with the appearance of the guards to the west?
