Death of the Dragons

Grabhar, HP59/59, AC 32/F27/T21 Saves: F5 R9 W6

Grabhar stretches his sinewy arms out wide and draws his spear to lean on while he waits for the others. his brown clothing looks old and tattered in the morning sun and his volumious hooded cloak hides both his mass of golden locks and impressive wings with little difficulty. Looking over at the sniveling boy who was so kind to pay them up front, there isn't a hint of empathy or compassion for his suffering in the spearsages deep blue eyes. "So which way are we heading young master? I'll take a quick scout that way while the others gather their things for the trek through the woods. Do you have some kind of map to the beasts' lair, or a set of landmarks I can see from above?"

"I am ready to follow and fight as necessary, lead on I am anxious to earn my pay and more importantly expand my knowledge." Alariass says rubbing his hands together eagerly.

I'd like to know where are we going and how long will it take to get there. Other then that, I'm ready to go.

On the way, I'd like to hear more about your type of spells or powers from all of you casters, I mean, what can we expect from you? Area blasts? Targeted destruction? Combat field control? Boosts? You know, so we can discuss tactics, especialy Grabhar and me. And War too once he gets to melee...

"Well speaking for myself you will likely find yourself aided by creatures known as astral constructs, my insight into the creatures you face can rarely be faulted, follow my instructions and you will find you strike true more often. I do also have several area of effects, however I will not use these if you are within their area unless matters are truly desperate - and likely not even then." Alarrias informs the group.

"If we face a large group of foes, or a powerful group at any rate, it might also behoove you all to remain in within 30ft of each other and myself so that I might increase your speed via the Haste spell. I may even be tempted to do a small amount of healing should the need arise though I would prefer to do so out of battle as much as possible."

OOC: Bump!
 

We are heading north and west. The only landmark I can think of is that they make lair near a tree that other trees won't grow next to. says Seifer.

Yes, that would be good to do. As for me, I have a talent for arcane magic. I have spells, but I can also launch raw magic at an opponent. Seifer looks over back at the inn and comments As soon as War and Haereka get out here we will leave.

My tactics are fairly straightforward. I prefer to make first attack swooping from an ambush, surprising the opponents. If there is choice I will charge spellcaster. Then, while they are recovering I pummel said spellcaster or whoever else is target with flurry of blows until either he drops or his companions recover enough to pose a threat. Then I retreat back to main group.

I prefer fighting on broken or wet ground as I'm trained to ignore such difficulties while most opponents won't be thus giving me an extra edge.

If there is such time when you want to unleash area attack while I'm inside because there is desperate situation or simply to clear away many opponents feel free to do so. I'm fast enough to evade most such attacks and if you yell "Dragon Breath" before I'll be prepared for such and take steps to avoid it before it happens. Use fire if you have a choice, just in case I don't move fast enough.


[sblock=For War]
War knows this tactics well. In conjuction with his cobra straps Marius can attack, full attack (flurry) and then move to hide or to end up behind the opponent thus flanking him for next attacker in line.

In addition he is almost impossible to charge, evading most such attacks with ease.

When Haereka finally makes her appearance, rather than sauntering out of the inn, she simply speaks up, already standing in the middle of the group (those than can see invisible and make a 29 spot check see her arise from the ground ethereally, and adjust her position before becoming material). "Oh I'm here. Just waiting to see when you silly men would notice." She rolls her eyes to puntuate the joke. Up until then she keeps an eye on Seifer, trying to determine if he percieved her ethereal form (Sense Motive 9).

"So tactics ... I can exhale walls of elemental energy that are very precise. For example, if Grabhar is fighting some beastie, I could encircle the critter in a wall of fire that radiates inward. Grabhar would be able to keep stabbing the thing without harming himself while the creature also roasts. Of caurse that trick might not work so well with punches instead of a spear. I've got a few other cards up my sleeve. I can make objects or even people dissappear temporarily. And I'm pretty persuasive in general."

The large hunter drains his stein without acknowledging the tiny merchant. He clatters down the empty tankard a bit hard, and after a moment looks down directly into the trader's eyes. "You think you're ready to race through the trees hunting those hulking beasts then do you? Lets speak a little over at the bench there." Grabhar wrenches the antler free of the bar, and taking his longspear from its perch against the bar turns toward the table.

The wide crytsm spear head seems to fold in on itself until it is nothing more than a slender shard no wider than the haft of the weapon, then changes to a dull silver sheen while the haft colapses in on itself down to standard spear length and then again to short spear, which he spins around and sheaths in a wide leather loop protruding from between his shoulder blades. He sets down heavily on the benched table and shoots the serving girl a knowing smirk. He draws a large kukri and starts to wittle the oozing antler as he waits for his food to be brought to the table, leaning back lightly against the wall.


yeah , and i agree withyou
 

War collects up his equipment, the box following him floating at his head level. Are we ready to go Seifer? he asks.

Seifer does not seem to notice Haereka's sudden appearance in the group. We are talking tactics War,what can you offer?

I am paladin Warforged. My sword here Benihime can have alchemical flasks plugged into it.My box here is my packmate and he supplies me my flasks while attacking on his own. I have a horse outside the city replies War

"We should get moving now, if you wish to take to the skies Grabhar, we will see you there." Seifer heads out the north gate.

Grabhar stands up from the wall he was leaning against and makes sure everything hes carrying is secure. "Well then my pedigree chums, shall we get this movable feast underway?" He indicates to Siefer with a differential wave of his suddenly cerulian blue, gloved hand a humble offer to lead the way if the youth is so inclined. "Unless this place you speak of can be easily spotted from the air, you'll need to show us the way young master. Or provide some sort of map."
