Constables of the 14th Ward Part 2

OOC: Ahhh, you're right, Mowgli, my bad! Sorry. SoulFetter only takes 2 hp damage, and Frick/Frack, (the rogue dude) takes the other two. (SoulFetter will thank you later, Thea.) (Please note that change on your records for this combat, Scotty.)

OOC: Alarion's AoO missed. These guys are AC17 (plus cover for one) until Thea's next action when they will go back up to AC19. Damage adjustment from Soulfetter to the bad guy noted.
 

Seeing Alarion cut by the heavy axe, Brae moves to aid the knight. "By Meda, watch yourself knight," he says as he closes. The cleric places a strong hand upon Alrarion's shoulder, and channel's the power of Meda into the man's body.



AC 21, HP: 50/50

Moves behind Alarion, spontaneously casts Cure Serious Wounds (3d8+6), dropping Monster Summoning III.

OOC post for Mowgli

OOC: I'm confused.
This is news? hehehe
Mowgli said:
Don't the bad guys go first?
That's Scotley's dept.
Mowgli said:
And why will SoulFetter thank Thea later?
Because she saved him from taking more damage that he would have taken with her spell, and caused his opponent to do damage to himself with the same spell. Okay, maybe he won't thank her, but I sure would. :p
 

OOC for Leif

[sblock=Leif]Definitely nothing new for me to be confused, but in this case it might be justified . . .

Thea cast Whelming Blast, which does non-lethal damage to the critters. Her feat gives them a -2 on attack rolls and -1 AC. It does nothing to shift damage from SoulFetter to them. That particular nasty little effect is due to the Vestige currently bound to SoulFetter.

Here's the passage from my post on 09/19 at 5:55 AM (Post 568):

Using the Shield Self ability granted by his currently bound vestige (Dahlver-Nar). Designated target must (since it would be unwilling) make a Will save (DC 13) or SoulFetter shares any damage he takes ½ and ½ with it. This effect will continue as long as the designated target is within 30' of SoulFetter, and regardless of the source of the damage to the Binder (in other words, even if the other critter hits him with a javelin, the designated target will take ½ of the damage and Soulfetter will take the other ½). The target creature will feel a tingle/hostile effect but will not necessarily know the source of the attack. (Tome of Magic, pg. 19 & pg. 28).

I didn't see a Will Save post anywhere, so I'm guessing SoulFetter's action was missed completely and it's possible Frick (or Frack, whichever the heck he is) will make his save and SoulFetter will take the full 4 points . . . But maybe not.[/sblock]

[sblock=Mowgli]Ok, my bad, it wasn't Thea's spell that did it, it was your dealy. Frick/Frack, I think it's Frick, failed his save, so he shares in all damage dealt to you. Have I got it now?[/sblock]
 

Thea looked carefully from side to side- thankfully it seemed as if there were only two of these things. She wasn't exactly sure what they were- they weren't orcs, and didn't seem to be real trolls. They definitely weren't friendly, but that was hardly news to the constables- lots of things were unfriendly when the law came to visit.

After a moment, she turned her attention to one of the beasts. Once more she wove a few words of magic, attempting to influence its mind for a few crucial seconds. Even if it didn't work, the spell might help her figure out how tough these things were going to be.

OOC: Casting Daze Monster on one of the critters- not the one facing Alarion, as he would be loathe to take advantage of such tactics. If it has 6 HD or less, Will save DC 16 or take no actions for one round- if it saves, it takes -2 to attacks and AC for the round. If it has 7 HD or more, then no effect (including no penalty to AC or attack, since the spell is too weak the feat won't help).
