Hanable's Hunters, Part I & II

[Prof Yeti]

Marek d'Cannith - Paragon/Wizard

Hobbes spews forth a string of words that would embarass even the lowest dock hand.

Hobbes will then scream at the top of his lungs

Hearing the 'scream/battle cry/call to question the ogres parentage' Marek turns to his remaining companions. "I believe the element of surprise has eluded us, my friends." And with that he begins to make his way thru the woods even as he pulls a scroll from his belt. "Do not wait for me I will catch up after I get a bit of protection."



OOC - Move 30' in direction of the ogres. And cast Mage Armor from Scroll (Duration 1 Hr.). Next couple of rounds will move at Full Move as fast as the foliage will let me go. (Hopefully 120')

OOC: Combat action deadline is around 9 AM Thursday (Central), when I get home. I'll handle everything else then.

Hearing the commotion coming from the direction of the Ogres Whitlock takes off at a full run, his legs pumping furiously and his urgosh balanced dangerously in his right hand.

OOC: 100' a round and will continue bolting towards them until he can get an attack in.

Hobbes lets out a string of curses and screams as he pulls out his bow and fires at the impending ogres, strikes true, and the ogre falls from an arrow to the eye. <<

Marek hears Hobbes cry and the gutteral sound of an Ogre screaming in pain, and rushes forward as fast as he can (closes 120')

The other ogres take pause, and approach more cautiously (close 40' with Hobbes to 80')

Firavel sees that they are closing in on Hobbes and not himself (90' away form him), and spots an opening. He fires, but misses. Fortunately, the Ogres don't seem to notice. <<

Spoiler

Att 4+7=11, Ogre Spot check - Failed

>>

Selene and Amairgen start running. Amairgen closes quite rapidly (Selene closes 80', Amairgen 160', unless you wanted to stay even)

Whitlok takes off running while Digga dreams of strawberries and female badgers follows closely behind (close 80' (can't run at 5x, so only can close 100'))

Kerlokh touches his mark and concentrates for a second, sinking back into cover. The Ogres don't seem to spot him at this distance (90'), however, the object he seeks seems to be outside of the grasp of the spell.

Next Round (If I get 4-5 replies, I'll make the next post tomorrow morning around this time.)

(OOC: Let's have them both go at full movement for now, placing Amairgen about 40 feet behind the 'nseaky' PCs and Selene 80 beyond that. Ideally, Amairgen won't get too far ahead, though, as the plan is to do some fun double-buffing)

Marek d'Cannith - Paragon/Wizard

Moving as quickly as the underbrush will allow him, Marek scans ahead with his bow.


OOC - Full Move (120')

 

[Elocin]

Hobbes - Shifter Ranger 2/Barbarian 3

Hobbes lets out a gutteral cheer upon seeing the one ogre fall and laughs as the rest seem to be rethinking their charge. At which point Hobbes growls once more and dropping his bow and lets out a deep feral growl and charges the nearest ogre, drawing out his weapon on the way.

[sblock](ooc: Raging and shifting during the charge and hoepfully angling enough at the start that when I get there I only get one AOO, I hope.)[/sblock]

(OOC: You can drop and rage as free actions, and drawing a weapon can be part of a move, so I believe you can do that)

OOC: Yup, I don't see a problem other than the fact that they have the same 10' reach he does and technicaly take up a 10x10 space (My mistake last combat), which actualy means he can charge, attack one, and not be in range of the others, assuming it's the closest.

OOC: Amairgen can reach the ogres this round but not attack, was that his intent? Or slow to double move so you can catch up? (BTW, can you only run 60' in full plate? Did I mess that up?)
