Dragonslayers: After the second dragon

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Lalreth curses silently and focuses on firing at the beast again. He skips backwards a bit so he won't get snapped at and looses another arrow at Glitterscale.*

OOC - Moving backward ten feet, +12 to attack, 1d8+2/x3.

(OOC: The first strike Velsouvous makes against the dragon each round will be a stunning attempt, even though they aren't likely to work. Fortitude save DC 16 to resist being stunned. Also a generous DM might increase the save DC on a critical hit A stunned character can’t act, loses any Dexterity bonus to AC, and takes a -2 penalty to AC. Velsouvous has 3 stunning fist attempts per day.)

Velsouvous launches into a blur of motion, attacking with hands, feet, knees and elbows. (OOC: flurry of blows, +8/+8 1d6+5 dmg, first attack is another stunning fist at DC 16. Also +2 from flanking if Grim can get in melee range while on the water.)

Alternatively, if by the time his turn comes up the dragon is either dropped or seems to be near deaths door (less than 10HP, if Velsouvous has no way to determine that then use flurry as outlined above) Velsouvous will invoke Vixzu's power and use his Death Touch, a supernatural touch attack which kills the target if it has 3d6 or fewer HP remaining, no save, no SR. Invoking a supernatural ability does not provoke an attack of opportunity.
Vixzu, accept this soul as payment for the wrongs it has committed.

If Glitterscale flies away, provoking an attack of opportunity from Velsouvous, he will attempt to grapple the dragon, with the idea that you can't fly and grapple at the same time.

 

[Mithran]

Hond's eyes lock on the dragon and he gives it a look that speaks of utter hatred. Hond's muscles tighten and he lets out a blood chilling yell as he steps forward and brings his sword down on the dragon in a chain of vicious attacks.

OOC: Rage 5 foot step and full attack +14/+9 (rage, bless and racial bonus vs. dragons) Rage raises his Con to 24 and Str to 20, it also drops his AC to 14(18 vs dragon).

Grimhild Uggluck - minus 13 hp, 43hp left.

Grim winces as the dragon bites into his flesh and has a small mental flash of the dragon ripping him to shreds with his claws, but quickly shakes the thought from his head. He watches as it hops up onto the side of the ship, not fly away like he thought it would. Grim sees the blood streaming out of it's hide as it makes the short hop through the air and figures the dragon is making one last desperate attempt to get it's main prey. Drastic times call for drastic measures.. ah must git to it before it leaps off into the air! he thinks to himself.

Grim steps closer to the ship, reaches up and grasps the side of the railing and attempts to hoist himself up and use his long limbs to his advantage and attack the dragon with Venomtooth.

(OoC- Grim takes a diagonal step towards the ship [so that he is ligned up with the dragon] and climbs up the side of the ship, and attacks the dragon while hanging on. I believe you said it would be climbing hastily? I'll give you his regular stats, you asign whatever penalties.. hehe. Grim's climb is: +2 (+7 str, -5acp). Grim's attack is: +13 (+15 - should be flanking?) Dmg 3d6 +11 +1acid Crit 19-20x2) EDIT- and if Grim gets an AoO from the dragon moving through his threatened area, he'll just make another regular attack.

A Dragon's Good-Bye

Round 8

The rolling of the boat sends Aprham falling against the mast. His head meets the wood with a sickening crunch and he slumps unconscious to the deck. Lareth retreats and fires into the crowd around the dragon, imbedding the arrow in its flank. Grim struggles mightily to climb to the deck, but is not able to pull himself up. Kylala nimbly slides past the dragon and slips her blade into a break in the scales, forcing the non magical blade into its flesh. Chanting can be heard from the cabin, Are you all right Sir? Yes of course, I know it was only an accident. Velsovous punches the Dragon twice, both hits glancing off the steel-hard scales, but the dragon still winces in pain from the impact Hond steps forward and the Sword of the Stars plunges into the dragons flesh, in exultation Hond glances up and his eyes meet those of the dragon. His mind is trapped in the infinite worlds that lie behind those eyes, and he freezes like a mouse before a snake. The great sword dangles limply in his fingers. Glitterscale’s thrashing tail smashes into Kylala he then leaps over the top of Velsovous who shouts You aren't getting away now! and grabs desperately at the dragon's hind leg as it passes by his head, only to be viciously slapped aside by its tail. Kylala’s last sword thrust bounces harmlessly off is scales. Glitterscale soars a long way out over the waters, before dipping to plunge once more beneath the waves. Not This Time Humans! He trumpets, just before the water closes over him

[Mithran]

Hond, still boiling with rage yells "Coward!" then lowers his blade and watchs to see if the dragon will retreat in shame or come back and die Hond would like it to.

 

[Ferrix]

Aphram grumbles in his unconsciousness.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

"Oh dear, I'm afraid he's going to be rather cranky when he wakes up in the morning..." Lalreth says, furrowing his brow in concern. When he sees Grim climb up from the water as if he had just fallen from a log, rather than into the ocean in full armor. "Name of the Singing Waters! I thought you had gone to lecture the fishes on the virtues of Grishnaak, Grim! Don't scare Hibou like that again, he'll start molting and then we'll have feathers everywhere."

 

[Super Girl]

Kylala wuffs as she gets knocked back against the captains cabin losing her breath from the powerful tail stroke. She makes a feeble swipe as the dragon tries to leap from the boat, but her blades glance off the creatures thick scales. Seeing the Dragon escape beneath the waves, the young girl sags back against the comforting weight of the wood behind her. "That was not fun, not quite so bad as it could have been from all the stories or anything, but we came off well for being so trapped on the boat." the girl sighed.

When Grim climbs back on deck, she smiles up a him, "I'm lad your back up here among the breathing, it wouldn't be a shame to have to do this all without you."

 

[Mithran]

Hond turns around to look at the others and offers a hand up to Kylala "How badly are the rest of you hurt?"
