Fallen Angel [IC]

[Fanog]

Thomas is caught a bit off-guard by Akaros' actions, but the man's actions don't really surprise him. Franticaly, Thomas tries to think of a way to dispel, or get around the darkness. He also twists his brain trying to figure out what he knows of these blue-skinned ogres.

"Arakos, we've got your back!", calls Thomas. He takes a step closer to the darkness, preparing to fire again at the first sign that Brath or the ogre-bug might still be there. "Syfis, do we know anything about this blue ogre with horns?"

(OoC: Kn. (Arcana) of Bardic Knowledge for details on the blue ogre. Fire an arrow when I know the location of Brath or the ogre-bug.)

new pic of Brath up. Thomas figures that the only blue-skinned ogres that he has heard tales of who could cast spells like charm would be the ogre-mage.

 

[Rybaer]

Lomas watches Akaros intently, hoping the Lesser will show himself again.


[ooc: Lomas will hold action until the first creature shows itself from the darkness. Whichever one it is, he will engage in psi combat with mode Brain Hammer +0. This will be followed with an Ego Whip.]

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

Syfis will continue flying/waiting.

(OOC-There's no real rule for it, you can decide how it works however you want, really-if it even works. Some DMs like to do a ranged attack roll and deal damage based on the tree's falling damage, but there's no hard and fast rule really)

 

[Erekose13]

Syfis flying at the back of the hall waits impatiently for her allies to take the prudent action and retreat.

The ogre-bug on the ceiling takes another jab from the darkness slamming his spear into Riejar's chest knocking the wind out of him. (15 damage, crit-threat).

Lomas waits.

Akaros strides boldly up to the edge of the darkness and begins chanting his spell. The spear shots out again but misses. Maybe they can see out after all. He quickly finishes his spell launching flaming death hopefully at both of his opponents (17 damage, both in range, both failed saves, but then you cant see that).

Michael, Riejar, and Thomas stand their ground hoping that an opportunity will present itself.

Chanting begins once again from in the darkness, the spellcasters realize too late what is coming and shout for everyone to get down just as a wintery blast comes whipping out of. The intense cold instantaneously freezes you to the bone. (26 damage, everyone is in the blast, Syfis, Lomas, and Thomas save for half, Michael, Riejar, and Akaros fail their saves). As you stare back down the corridor you realise that you can now see. The big ogre-mage must have knocked itself unconcious from the effort as he is lying on the ground. The ogre-bug on the ceiling above it looks suprised to see you.

Thomas takes the shot first, but the arrow flies wide. Michael seeing his opponent charges and swings up at the bug hitting it solidly (16 damage). His downward slash brings the creature with it, it dies on impact with the ground.

((OOC. damage recap: Michael (16hp), Riejar (1hp), Lomas (12hp), Thomas (12hp), Syfis (7hp), Akaros (13hp), all opponents are dead or unconcious))

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

"That was close." Syfis says, flying back down. She proceeds to take out a potion of cure light wounds and drinks it. "I suggest everyone else does the same, after all, who knows what might still lurk inside."

"There's some unexplored rooms still, but I'll set to work on freeing Arithel first. I didn't see any traps in there, but I'm not certain if there are any further on in the area."

Her illuminating, yet invisible form sets to work on flying back to Arithel's location. Assuming no one appears to follow her after she gets there, she dismisses her invisibiltiy spell and lands in front of him. "Arithel?"

OOC-Syfis was flying above the entrance, so would she still be caught in the blast? Just curious.

 

[Erekose13]

((OOC I wasnt sure exactly where you were, whether it was just inside (in the blast) or clearly outside and in the rain. The blast from the cone of cold filled upto the 5' square just outside the hole if I got it right. With the position I put you on the map you were in the blast. Gonna go with the way it is, but the party has enough one-shot healing stuff that all damage suffered wont hurt a bit.))

 

[Someone]

Akaros grins and steps near the ogre mage before it has a chance to regenerate and cuts it's head off with a powerful strike of the greatsword. Then turns to the others.

"What were you saying? ah, the angel boy..."

Akaros then casts enough healing spells to bring the party back to health.

[kill the ogre mage, then Cast cure serious wounds on himself, then use the wand on everyone until they have 8 hp ot less of damage.Cast detect magic on the ogre mage's stuff to see if it has something valuable.]

[Edit: BTW, we took the ogre mage down with too really lucky shots! a crit and a really, really high damage roll with that burning hands.]

 

[Erekose13]

((OOC yeah they were some nice damage rolls, but i had forgot about the regen till you cut off his head, he would have had like 1 or 2 hps left and prolly run away for a bit. ah well thems the breaks))

 

[Fanog]

"Everyone alright? Riejar, still with us?"

After checking on Riejar, Thomas keeps his bow at the ready and carefully walks over to the ogre mage body. He averts his eys for a moment as Akaros decapitates the creature. His curiousity gets the better of him, though, and before long Thomas is studying the body of the spellcaster ogre. "Thank you, Akaros. That was mighty close..."
