Destiny's Tears: Varylys (Almost at Chapter 1!)

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: I'm not sure I understand the reference in what Zykovian is saying OOC, which means I may not be able to reply correctly IC--to wit, what does he mean by that?)

 

[FreeXenon]

Mhrazhar, Mojiin Inquisitor; HP:30/30

Mhrazhar readies himself for the pain and lunges for NinjaX for a smiteful grapple, while loudly hissing "Die Taij."

[OOC: My delayed action would have triggered as soon as she went to cast the spell right? Please! Here's to hoping that they are corrupted.]

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: I think you thought you readied an action if you were expecting it to 'trigger'. Delay just means you're waiting to go later. For instance, her ninjutsu was a readied action triggered when Zykovian drew his bow. And we're about to see another readied action just about...now! )

*As Mhrazhar hisses and prepares to lunge, he finds himself tripped by a man he recognises from before, the ninja Sasuke, as the other man slams Mhrazhar to the ground with a painful circle kick.*

"The Lady said on the ground," he states flatly, his face emotionless.

"Taij? A strong term, and not accurate," Ayame points out.



(OOC: Sasuke's Readied Trip Touch Attack 6 + 8 = 14, Hit.
Sasuke vs Mhrazhar Trip 12 + 7 = 19 vs 13 + 4 = 17, Tripped.
Follow-up 9 + 8 = 17, Hit.
Mhrazhar takes 16 Damage.

Mhrazhar is unable to take his original action, so he can change to something else and can still act. After him is Ayame and then Zykovian again)

Mhrazhar, Mojiin Inquisitor; HP:14/30

Mhrazhar hisses, moves back 5 towards Zykovian and if he can manage to be within 5 feet of Ayame and Sasuke he will. The Mojiin changes into his dragon form, and stands up. Looking intensely at Sasuke he says "Lets try that again!"

[OOC: Gotcha!

I did not see rolls for Zykovian's arrows? Did he get the chance to fire them?

Doh! Well, this went horribly awry! The two of them we might have been able to handle with some miracles, but not with Mr. Superfoot Wallace in the fray! Ugh! ]

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Moving back 5 feet while prone is a crawl action, which is a move action that provokes an AoO. Standing also provokes an AoO. There's not really any way around it, though the AoO cannot be used to trip you again, fortunately.

Zykovian spent his last turn drawing his bow and moving. He'll shoot next turn (which is after Mhrazhar and Ayame).

There is a five-foot gap between Ayame and Zykovian+Mhrazhar, with Lyveria+Abdiel just behind like so (NinjaX is twenty feet past Ayame in the back of the room, ready to CdG Melody who is unconscious in his square. Priya is also there and also unconscious. Alire and Fedowin are not here at all.)

OOC: Where does this other ninja show up at now as I don't see anyone within 5' of Mhrazhar based on your map? And since she fired when I drew, (that action breaking my post up), then I suppose that I can go ahead and fire as well . . . since all I did was draw and 5' adjust, correct?

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Sasuke is to the right of Mhrazhar. He was either hiding or invisible before this. If you fired, that would have actually triggered other readied actions (including Sasuke's) earlier. How about we not retcon it but give you an extra attack next round instead, just so I don't have to break up the flow of combat--that sound fair?)

 

[Keia]

OOC: Fine

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Okey dokey. Just waiting for FX to post new actions for Mhrazhar. Since he can only do two of the three things he mentioned in his post and is going to get AoOed at some point, I don't want to pick for him)

 

[Thanee]

OOC: I've counted to five, do I wake up now?
