Clutches of Evil - IC: Chapter Two
- Thread starter Nonlethal Force
- Start date
if my memory serves me well i know that last year when we were escorting near the border that you found some herbs that smelled delicious and you tried them in your famous stew. i almost fell out of the tree while standing watch that night. so you are very right with your remark that is hasn't killed anyone YET.

Byntrou, Keryth:
Bahruul nods, "Indeed. Someone seems afraid to fight us."
Destiny adds, "Either that or he wants to whittle us down before facing us. Either way, do we have much choice?"
[Sblock=OOC]Simply stalling a bit for jkason to return to a regular posting schedule now that the holidays are behind us. I don't really want to go into a combat without him. It wouldn't be fair.[/Sblock]
Eion, Varius:
The waiter takes the order and promises to return. In short order, he returns with Varius' ale as well as a small glass of water for Eion. "Your stew will be served in a moment, sirs."

Byntrou, roguishly sorcerous barbarian
Byntrou nods. "My glowing spectre can move fairly far without disappating. If your mist obscures things, Keryth, I might have a good chance of using it to draw fire, possibly even letting us sneak close enough to surprise our ambushers."
[sblock=OOC]Very sorry about the disappearance. I didn't anticipate it or I'd have warned you. I should be back to regular posting during the week now, though.[/sblock]

Byntrou, roguishly sorcerous barbarian
As Keryth begins to cast, Byntrou's fingers work, as well. He mutters, drawing the faint outline of a humanoid, and as he finishes, the shape he's outlined fills with light. With a nod, Byntrou sends the glowing apparition out into the mist.
[sblock=OOC]Casting Dancing Lights, of course.
Also, is Byn's Mage Armor still active?[/sblock]

Keryth, Byntrou:
[Sblock=Byntrou OOC]At 1 hour per level, considering that the party was hustling through the tunnels I think it is fair to say that it certainly could be active. The party didn't do much but hustle through the tunnels. So, yes.[/Sblock]
As the two cast spells, Destiny looks to Bahruul and says, "Go to the left, and hurry about it. I'll follow you and hit the fighters before they know what's coming."
Surprise Round:
Bytnrou and Keryth are able to cast their spells in succession. Once the spells go off, Bahruul and Destiny surge through the entrance.
Combat:
From inside the tunnel, a curse can be heard that matches neither Bahruul's nor Destiny's voice.
[Sblock=Init & Battlemap]
1,2 = Guards
3 = Guard in leather from prior encounter
K = Keryth
b = Byntrou
. = Effect of the Obscuring Mist spell
{Destiny and Bahruul are within the mist, obscurred from vision for this round.}
NOTE: I did not count off the exact spell effect within the mine, I simply made it roughly circular. I did count off the effect outside the mine, taking into account the total space for creeping through the entrance.
INIT: Rogue, Guard, Byntrou, Keryth, Guard, Bahruul, Destiny
We are currently at Byntrou's action in the init.[/Sblock]

Byntrou, roguishly sorcerous barbarian
"That sounds promising," Byntrou whispers as he skirts past Keryth, dropping his bow and drawing his scimitar. As he creeps forward, he directs his glowing puppet to rush toward where the men Destiny has indicated are, keeping it far enough away from himself so as to provide a decoy rather than a lighted sign indicating his position. With luck, he can catch them unawares and strike.
[sblock=OOC]I'm not sure if Byn can move and attack this round. If he can, he's looking for a flankable position or a flatfooted target to get some sneak attacking in on.[/sblock]

[Sblock=OOC]You are too far away to do both. Would you like to move your full movement (single move) and wait within the obscuring mist or double move to beside the enemies? You'll not be able to flank this round, and #3 has already acted ... so no flatfooted on him anyway.[/Sblock]
