[QUOTE="Patryn of Elvenshae, post: 5655345, member: 23094"] Jonath Cailan: [ooc]So, just to be clear, I'm assuming that I am about 25' away from the monster, with my bow in-hand and no clear shot on the creature (e.g., I'll be taking the "firing into melee" penalty and the "soft cover from allies" penalty if I attempt a shot), and there's nowhere I can move to get rid of the cover? Assuming "Yes," and that I can move so that I'm flanking with Kip (or anyone else, really) ... :D [/ooc] Suddenly, the creature rises back up and roars, throwing off Kip's attacks, and, as if in slow motion, Jonath watches Keena stumble momentarily off-balance, blood flying from her cheek, potentially offering a deadly opening to the creature - and Jonath curses, finding himself too far away, too slow, too untrained with his bow for the shot he needs to take ... And with a yell, he grabs his bow with both hands, charges through the underbrush, and swings it mightily at the creature. [OOC]Clubs are normally 1d6 weapons, so I figure an improvised, lighter club is probably 1d4? Let me know if you want me to change it. Of course, with a roll of 1 for the damage, I suspect you can make the damage die as small as you want and it won't matter. :D[/ooc] The bow catches the creature as it is rising, hissing and spitting, with a loud crack. The scaly beast's eyes cross momentarily, and its legs go out from under it as it crashes back to the ground. [/QUOTE]
