Feint Whispers Chapter #3: Festival of Falling

[Krug]

Bhartus takes up his light crossbow and fires at the gnome, knowing that if he takes him down the others would likely flee.

 

[jasamcarl]

The elf is unable to connect his rapier with the nimble youths. His plea to Jericho are also ineffectual, as the warrior seems phased, unable to act.

Whitney moves forward 50ft in order to cast her spell on one of the children.

The boys again work a flurry of stabs on Jericho. Streaks of blood follow the motions of their armed hands as the D'orite collapses to the ground, bleeding.

Jericho takes 14. He is now at -7.

 

[jasamcarl]

Dalik flings another lead ball at the same boy as the last time, but misses.

The tongue turns on the dog summoned by Bhartus from beyond, stepping back 5ft and mumbling. Just as he does so, Bhartus' bolt, striking true thanks to Dalik's inspiration, sinks into the gnome's shoulder and the dog again bites at the gnome, tearing into the little rogue's clothing ferociously. The dog seems dazed in a manner similar to Jericho.



Tarowyn is up.

 

[Krug]

"I need to get to Jericho quickly!" says Bhartus. He rushes forth with his mace screaming for blood. However, once he gets close he will cast a Cure Light Wounds upon him. He will try to get the dog to move between the gnome and Jericho.

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"I'l cover you!" Whitney says as she pulls another scroll from her hip and starts chanting again.

(OOC: Another magic missile at one of the injured youths, moving in to help cover Barthus.)

 

[Mirth]

"Hurry up, Dwarf!" Tarowyn yells as he moves into a position standing over Jericho's body, to protect it until Bhartus can get there, and continues his attacks on the youths.

 

[jasamcarl]

Tarowyn moves to the center of the cutpurse gang to where Jericho fell and lets loose with a wicked slash to the back of the youth already bloodied by the D'orite's fist, slashing him across the stomach and knocking him unconsiece.

Whitney's magic drops one of the wounded rogues as well, his clothes in tatters.

The two remaining boys move infront of and behind the elf and stab at him in a desperate manner yet miss.

Dalik moves forward another 30ft and fires off another lead bolt from his sling at one of the boys, but it goes wide.

Bhartus rushes up to one of the boys, invoking the favor of Moradin as he does so to heal Jericho. As he does so, the summoned dog vanishes and the Tongue projects lashes out at Tarowyn's rapier with his whip, bringing the blade down to the ground with a downward tugging motion. Bhartus is subjected to stabbing attempts by the thiefs but luck and armor allow him to come through untouched as he tends to his comrade.

Jericho regains 4.

Tarowyn is disarmed, the rapier is on the ground near his feet.



Tarowyn is up.

Two rogues and the tongue remaining. Jericho is at -8.

 

[Mirth]

Tarowyn takes a 5ft sidestep and draws his bow, using Point Blank and Rapid Shot to fire at the Tongue and one of the boys.

OOC: I think Bhartus was trying to heal Jericho, not himself.

 

[Krug]

Sorry if I wasn't clear. Yeah was trying to heal Jericho, not myself.

Bhartus will use his mace upon one of the boys.

 

[KaintheSeeker]

Whitney pulls her crossbow out and loads it, shooting at Tongue and keeps an eye on the others closer to the boys as she aims. (making sure that Bhartus isn't in trouble like jericho)

"Bhartus.. is he going to be okay?"
