OOC:

Matt, why don't you call your attack an offensive strike and roll 3 more d6 for damage (normally, I'll make you declare that you are doing a combat or martial maneuver before you do your rolls, but while everyone is still learning I'l be a little 'softer.'

I've got to go to bed now -- I'm trying to get sick -- if you've not posted by tomorrow AM, I'll roll the extra damage and assume Mike couldn't find a terminal to post from, and go ahead and resolve your actions (Athelstan definitely hit this time!)

OOC:


Athelstan rolls 3d6, getting [4,6,5] = (15)

Here ya go, Mike. Explain to me again why I needed to do this? Because it was a combat attack? Or a combat move? Again, I guess I'll need you to "dumb down" what it is I'm doing so I can learn. This is like taking another foreign language or something. Hee hee.

Hope you can fight off being sick. Let me know if you need any euphamisms for "vomit" to tell the people you talk to in different ways that you were "cooking up a pavement pizza" and all.

Skáth Attempts a Fly By

Quickly assessing the situation, Skáth determines that Gavril's opponent is the only one that still presents an imminent threat to the guests. Grasping his quarterstaff firmly by one end, he cocks it back, sets his sights firmly on the back of Usta's head, and takes off. As he speeds by his target, he unleashes a mighty swing . . . and spins in a complete circle as he fails to connect and the momentum of his quarterstaff carries him around.

Skáth rolls 3d6, getting [4,3,6] = (13)

Skáth rolls 3d6, getting [5,1,3] = (9)

Skáth rolls 3d6, getting [1,3,6] = (10)

With a sickening crunch, Athelstan's flail finally connects, smashing into the head of the hapless Aved Kidly. The ghoul child's body spasms once, and lays still.

Athelstan connects with an Offensive Strike, hitting the ghoul's head and doing 25 STUN and 5 BODY.

Gavril

OOC: I revised my previous post to reflect our email discussion about the 'off-hand' attack.

OOC:

Excellent! Once I get posts from Deasaigh, Cerallos, and Béar I can resolve Segment Four.

Béar commin' at ya

Béar will grab his Mace and stand up. Looking around, he will attempt to maneuver behind a creature who is engaged with somebody. Béar will try to disable the thing with a well placed mace strike to the hip.

Béar rolls 3d6, getting [1,5,5] = (11) to hit (nerve strike)

Béar rolls 1d6+12, getting [3,12] = (15) to location

Béar Éagrolls 2d6, getting [3,5] = (8) (to NND ?)

Béar Éagrolls 2d6, getting [1,5] = (6) to damage.

OOC: I have no idea if that is correct. feel free to make it right or tell me what I should have done

OOC:

You did indeed 'do it right.' There is no need to roll a Hit Location for this attack - it's already defined and built into the -1 OCV for the attack. Also, there's only one damage roll - this attack either works and does only STUN damage, ignoring all the targets defenses, or it doesn't work at all (if the target has the defined defense).

So, taking the first damage roll Béar will do 8 STUN to Usta (the only ghoul left standing, as Jinny is knocked out and Avid is quite obviously dead). This attack will fall after Deasaigh and Cerallos take their actions.

Cerallos

Thank the Maker my new little grey friend was near, I'll have to thank him later. Now, who's left...

Cerallos observes the room and sees a motionless body in front of Athelstan. He notices that this last ghoul fighting seems like it has seen its last few seconds on this earth with the number that are still standing and decides to save his action as well as preserve some endurance.

So Cerallos holds his javelin in defense, just in case, and positions himself to where all of the bodies and action is in front of him. He looks down at the thing that was attacking him and wonders...surely this creature is not going to get up again!

Cerallos glances around the area to see if there is anything that could be used to tie this creature up for precaution.

OOC:

Christopher hasn't looked in on us in about 3 days -- must've overindulged for his birthday Saturday! As Béar's action will resolve things nicely, I'll move along without Deasaigh for now, and hope he'll get back with us soon.

IC:

Cerallos takes a step back, brandishing his javelin menacingly, to assess the situation. Béar steps smoothly around Gavril, and deftly plants the butt end of his mace in the nerve cluster in Usta's left thigh. She drops to the ground, curled around her pain. After the action packed 15 seconds (or so), the room is quiet.
