You would still be in range of the creature though, even without reach. You're the equivelent of 1 square diagonal-up from it's facing. And your DR does apply.)Tyrla flies out of the reach of the ground based wolves. From her new vantage she can see far and wide along the planes and over the forests...Tyrla:[sblock]You recognize the creatures as Barghests. Horrible transforming monsters that devour the souls of the fallen and gain great strength from it. These particular ones are quite advanced, and more than dangerous.Also, from your new vantage you can see something moving just over the trees, it's scaly green wings blending slightly with the canopy as it rushes towards your position. It's currently near 1000 ft. away, to the south.[/color][/sblock]Avril sends Mandla into the beast, but his attack fails to draw any wound on the creature. As the grass entagles around the road and field it wraps around the feet of the monsters, both visible and not.Siobhan drops the longbow, favoring her melee weapon, she readies the hammer and steps up to engage the beast in front of her. Her swing crashes into the creature (critical threat) nearly striking its skull (not confirmed). The hammer strike does 12 points of damage to the nearby beast.Warren moves back to re-engage (you also get a +1 to hit due to higher ground) and strikes for 15 points of combined damage.Larian falls back a step and casts a powerful illusion of invisibility (I assume you would still do so, the creatures have scent, but that doesn't make invisibility useless).Larian:[sblock]These creatures are greater barghests, powerful shapeshifters that devour the souls of whatever prey they find. They are intelligent, make use of powerful spells including the ability to charm enemies and empower allies, and quite deadly. These ones are greater barghests, ones who have devoured enough souls to reach a new more fierce level.[/sblock]Pender charges into the creature (+1 to hit from higher ground) and nearly hits, but the creature he swings for vanishes and reappears during the blades arc.The two hobgoblins move out from cover and each fires an arrow. The first targets Tyrla, her high ground making her an obvious target. The other targets Avril. Both miss.The large wolves fight on, the first locking eyes with Warren, facing off with him with a piercing stare.Warren:[sblock]Make a secret will save vs. Charm Monster, DC 16, and act accordingly to your result. I don't need to see it nor even be told what your result was.[/sblock]The second creature howls and slashes at the armored cleric. Siobhan is able to deflect or shake off all three attacks.The hidden dragonkin mentioned by Tyrla tough it through the entanglement (3 were affected, all 3 made their saves) and trudge forward. The one who was not entangled charges Siobhan. One that was entangled does not quite make it to his target and find himself challenged by the strength of the plants that grab at him. The other two move to attack Siobhan and Pender respectively.They swing hard, and this costs them against their heavily armored targets. The first two attackers miss. The third (the one against Pender) however lands a critical threat (but doesn't confirm) and deals 16 points of damage to the fighter.I hope that gets everything. The 3 B's not in the entanglement are visible now and are black dragonkin (you can see the picture in one of my earlier posts addressed to Tyrla).</blockquote>
