[EBERRON] the Extraordinaries, 'A Terror Awakened, the League Reborn'

[Ferrix]

Gherald changes his plan and parts the future scrapheap that will become of the circling warforged scout and forces it upon the creature.

OOC: Manifest Recall Agony on S4, Expended Focus for Psionic Endowment, Will save DC 16 for half and take 5 damage, woooo... can I trade Recall Agony for Mind Thrust Karl? It's seriously subpar as a power, considering mindthrust does 1d10 +1d10 per PP, only difference is short vs. medium range, you'd think a 2nd level power would be better than a first level power.

(occ Grr thought I was waiting on one more reply and then got mixed up with other stuff… ok now that combat is over it will go faster /occ)


Quickly reloading and locking the next bolt into his crossbow, Neville turns and fires two rapid shots at the Warforged Scout; the first missing the construct, but the second catching it full in the chest and causing it to reel back and collapse onto the ground, out of commission and inert! Henry bites into the Warforged facing Azreal and bites into it but the Warforged remains on its feet, still cursing the half-celestial…

When Taran rushed it also, slamming his sword deep into its chest plate and causing it to fall as Azreal’s weapon bounces off the things helmet like head. But it is down and not moving also.

Then it is Bale’s turn as he charged the last Scout and chopping in a wide arch with Magique'ricera and chopping the creatures head clean from its armored body. It falls over, convulsing in some sort of death keel, and then stops all movement.

Fury and the last of the Warforged continue to struggle to get the upper hand of each other1, but it is really no contest as Fury continues to squeeze the construct… but its armored hull is made of stiff material and it refuses to fall, instead curses Fury as a traitor to the glory of the Lord of Blades…

Marcus takes careful aim at the grappling Warforged and tries to get a clean shot2, but he holds off for a moment…

As he lines up the shot, Gherald manifests his power and Mind Thrusts3 into the mind of the living-construct, causing sparks and fire to erupt from the creatures head as it screams and then goes slack in Fury’s arms… it appears inert and destroyed…

As silence descents over the camp a slight hot breeze picks up and strange mournful moaning seems to be carried to the party from across the lonely, dead plains…

(occ Results of round 5

Actions, Points and Rolls…
1 Fury grapple check 7 +16 =23 vs. a total of 5 for enemy, Fury wins!?! How did that happen . Damage is 3+4 +4 =11 (-2DR) is 9 points of damage… it is still alive!
2 I don’t see that Marcus has Precise Shot, and then there is a 50/50 of hitting either opponent… would he fire?
3 Ferrix if you want to exchange Recall Agony for Mind Thrust, that’s cool… please edit your character sheet. I will assume that you did that this round… and taking out the last of the Warforged

Conditions…
Fury has taken 35 points of damage
Bale has taken 19 points of damage
Taran has taken 29 points of damage
Neville has taken 22 points of damage; Henry has taken 5 points of damage
Azreal has taken 13 points of damage

No need to update Map… a quick review will turn up two magical weapons… one of the Warforged Longspears and the large Warforged Warriors Great Axe both radiate Magic. Also the Artificer is carrying a Rod that has 9 red gems on it that radiate magic. Also seven of the Warforged are carrying Elixirs that radiate magic and look a lot like Fury’s ‘Repair Minor Damage’

"Good show, gentlemen! Good show." Neville says, as he plants the butt of his crossbow on the ground and leans on it's sturdy grip. He is holding his arm across his front, trying to stop the bleeding, as Henry, his hound is licking his hand in a sign of reassurance. "Now," he says, "who is skilled in the healing arts?" he says, stating the obvious. The old man is looking quite pale at this point.

"Thank you both, Taran and Azeral. Now that we know what we've got, let's salvage it and find a safer place to rest, it that exists in this hell." He looks around at the injured group, "Perhaps our healer could quickly patch us up and we'll be on our way. Worry about the stronger ills once we're off our feet." He quickly scans the horizon, hoping dearly to spot some sign of refuge.

Fury drops the construct to a heap at his feet and stares at the inert form for a long moment, reflecting on its words. He then crouches down by each of the fallen foes and retrieves the magical oils from their pouches. Finding a clear, open spot, he applies the oil carefully over each damaged portion of his hulking form. Once he is satisfied with the results, he stands and walks over to the group's commander, taking a knee near him so that they can see each other eye-to-eye.

"Mr. Rathbone, I apologize if my brash actions have caused you... discomfort. I should have waited for your orders before rushing into close combat in such a manner," he rumbles. "I will accept any discipline you see fit."

ooc: Use as many of the Oils as needed to bring me to full hp, Karl.

 

[taitzu52]

"Not at all, old chap," says Neville, "that is indeed why we choose to bring along a Warforged so aptly named." He limps off, lost in thought, eyes glazed over a bit, General Rathbone...indeed. An astute collegue or two may notice the old man chuckling to himself (and then wincing in pain).

 

[ShaggySpellsword]

Marcus prays his thanks to the Silver Flame for bringing him and his companions through the battle, and then walks ove to Neville.

"Everything I have heard tells me this won't work, but I have faith that the Flame can burn as brightly through my seplls of healing, as through my spells of war. Neville...you shall be my tests subject."

"Silver Flame, heal this man of his hurts and of his pains. Scald him with thy mercy!"

OOC: Cast Cure Moderate Wounds for 2d8+4. Does it work?

 

[Prof Yeti]

Taran Varnodel d'Phiarlan - Half Dragon Ranger/ Sorcerer

Wiping his blade with a rag from his pack, Taran makes his way towards his companions. As he comes closer the many slashes and punctures become evident. "Healer" he begins with a smile, "I believe I too am in need of your services when you have a moment. Unless it would be better to wait and use the trick with the rope that was spoken of before." With that he begin putting his sword in its sheath and retrieve his bow from his pack.

 

[Slippshade]

As the last scouts head hits the ground Bale pauses for a moment, letting his racing heart slow and purging the adrenaline from his body.

'Well done.'

As the adrenaline faded away, the pain from the spear wound on his back began to flare

'Almost well done. Thank you for the warning.' Bale thought in reply.

'You sould have someone look at that.' Edana's voice echoed in his mind with concern.

'I will, once the others are healed.'

Bale made his way back to the group, seemingly lost in thought. He stacked the items he collected from the fallen warforged he had slain with the other items his companions had gathered and listened to the conversation quietly.

ooc: Use as many of the Oils as needed to bring me to full hp.

Fury starts gathering up the oils recovered from the bodies of the enemy Warforged, and pours them onto himself, one at a time... his wounds were server and it takes all seven but finally the damage to his body starts repairing itself completely...

(occ Repair results from each oil = 5, 8, 2, 3, 8, 5, and finally 6 /occ)

OOC: Cast Cure Moderate Wounds for 2d8+4. Does it work?

(occ no /occ)

The wind slowly dies down, when Henry seems to whine and growl a bit out into the darkness... straining, Neville thought he hear something - metal on metal - but it is very faint and fads away almost instantly.

 

[ShaggySpellsword]

"Well, the evil powers are, in fact, blocking my ability to access the powers of the flame. We need to go somewhere else for me to heal you. Who has the means to take us there?"
