Round 3
In our last round the heroes engaged the forces of the Emerald Claw. Minor hits were exchanged and Zook called for the party to close in on the villains.
"Mess withmy spells will ya. Bhalag get us closer if you can"
Bhalag grunts and yells back, " Not on your life! "
Unfortunately, he accidentally yanks on the reins, causing them to come to a stop.
Gulping, he mutters to himself, " Put on the breaks and they'll fly right by. "
Bharag's wild maneuver catapulted him off the drivers box. Only a lucky grab from Rethlin saved him from a thousand foot fall.
At the start of the third round, the order is as follows:
Kae
The bad guys
Zook
Bharag
Rethlin
The skycab is stopped. This makes it a stable platform for shooting. Bharag is hanging from Rethlin's hand and has no cover or Dexterity bonus. Rethlin is hanging out the window and has only half cover (+2 cover bonus). Kae and Zook are currently still inside the coach and have full cover (+4 cover bonus).
Kae helps Rethlin haul Bharag back into the skycab: assuming Rethlin wants to do that, he will get a +2 aid another bonus on his Strength check.
The bad guys do, in fact, pass you. Then they turn, climb to get over you, and unleash another barrage of flaming bolts and acid, this time shooting only at the carriage.
Two shots at the carriage (1d20+1=5, 1d20+1=2)
Wand (1d20+2=6)
Some of the bad guys seem to be laughing so hard they can't shoot straight.
Wand (1d20+2=6)
Manticore (1d20+8=19, 1d20+8=25)
Some of them have no such problems and another part of the skycab begins to smolder and smoke.
A voice calls out "Surrender! Nothing can withstand the power of the Emerald Claw!!"
Zook is up.
