[Gobquest] Part 2

[Dog Faced God]

Goubido hissed as he took a step backward [5'],and lashed his whip toward the spider [+5 ranged attack, 1d6 damage].

[ooc: If there is not room for me to move, I'll stay right where I am. Otherwise, I'll end up on either side of Rakanishu.]

 

[Dalamar]

Glorath takes a step back to position himself next to Ashgyad and releases two arrows in rapid succession at the spider.

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl also fires with his crossbow if he has a clear shot, otherwise, he draws his sword and moves in to attack.

Goubido takes a step back and lashes out. His whip strikes the spider lightly. It twitches frantically. Glorath steps back and looses two arrows at the spider. Both the arrows fly true, striking it in its hindquarters.

The spider charges towards Goubido, almost angry. Again, the barbarian wheels away in time. Ashgyad fires his crossbow bolt but the missile lodges into the trunk of a nearby oak. Rakanishu's bolt hits the spider as well, lightly scraping its body before bouncing off and almost hitting D'Bruuhl. D'Bruuhl closes with the spider and tries to strike it with his sword, but the carapace of the creature is harder than it seems.

D'Bruuhl and Ashgyad see another spider scampering charging towards Rakanishu and Goubido's position, about 20' away.

A 'clear' shot is hard to define, and any missed missile or thrown weapon fire will risk hitting your companions. I think Garyh isn't around, so made his move for him.

 

[Dog Faced God]

Goubido tumbles [Tumble +3] back ten feet, hoping to draw the spider further from his companions, and strikes at the spider with his whip again [+5 ranged attack, 1d6 damage].

 

[Dalamar]

Glorath releases another two arrows.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Rakanishu loads and fires his crossbow again, this time at the newcoming spider.

Just realized I left out the word spider in the last post. Duh. You may edit your posts if you wish to change your actions to take account of the newcomer.

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl casts Magic Weapon on his short sword, yelling out the verbal component in hopes of distracting the spider, before hacking at it again. [gob] "Raka and Gbo, watch out behind you!"[/gob] the cleric screams in warning as he sees the other spider approaching.

OOC: Not having a clear map (which is fine by me) I just figured you could decide as DM whether D'B had a clear shot or not. Considering this thing is as big as a cow and we're pretty small, I thought maybe a shot could be taken without harming the others. I trust you as DM to make that decision, though, given the constraints of a PbP game.

Goubido tries to tumble, but a slippery bunch of leaves makes him slip. He only gets 5' away. However, he manages to strike out and rake the spider's flesh. Glorath's arrow bounces off the spider's carapace. The spider moves towards Goubido, inflicting great damage on the barbarian with its great fangs before he can defend himself. Goubido takes 7 points of damage. The barbarian feels venom run through his system and his vision shudders briefly. Fortunately, he makes his saving throw.

Ashgyad casts a spell and a Celestial Badger springs forth from the woods, raking its claws against the spider. The badger's bite doesn't manage to pentrate the armor of the creature however.

The other spider charges towards Rakanishu. D'Bruul shouts at
Raka and Goubido, "Watch out behind you!" and he turns around right in time to dodge the bite of the spider, dropping his crossbow. D'Bruuhl casts Magic Weapon and his short sword pulses and hums with magic. Rakanishu draws his blade and strikes out at the new spider and his sword just manages to slice the creature's front. It appears to shriek in pain. It looks older and weaker than the first.
