Hanable's Hunters, Part I & II

[unleashed]

Firavel d’Thuranni, Male Elf Rogue/Dragonmark Heir

OOC: Which is fortunate as Firavel didn’t intend to fire, he was to hide/move himself to a better position, somewhere different from where he was when the ogre yelled “kill them” as he was assuming he might have been spotted (guess I should have spelled it out). I would have said if he was going to fire.

Firavel waits until an ogre comes within his optimum range and releases his first arrow, before ducking behind a tree.

OOC: Firavel waits until an ogre comes to within 30 feet and then fires...can we assume he achieved his goal and moved closer to the ogres unseen as his previous action indicated. Sneak attack +2d6, then Hide again (-20).

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.

Why couldn't he wait for reinforcements to arrive instead of charging Kerlokh thinks to himself.

With Hobbes providing such a distraction, Kerlokh decides he will sneak closer.
OOC [sblock] Double Move at half speed 30'; Hide +2; Move Silently +2[/sblock]
He takes cover behind another tree

OOC: Sorry, I assumed you were waiting for a good shot, and with them ignoring you and dodging oncoming fire from a different direction, you had a shot at one flat footed, which I assumed you'd take given your post of looking for a good opening. Probably best spell out exactly what you're looking for in a shot next time.

(OOC: I thought we were 300' away from the ogres? I'll have Amairgen Run but not the maximum distance--give him 120' of movement this round (that way he can charge next round if he must, and he is close to Selene. Selene can run 80 because her Full Plate is Medium Armour)

 

[Bront]

OOC: He ran at 4x, so closed to 140', and they closed about 40', so he's well within his range to get there, but not attack. Cool, on the medium armor thing, forgot that.

Ranges away from the ogres (to prevent confusion). If this is wrong or you didn't want to get that close, I can change it.

Firavel & Kerlokh - 90'
Hobbes - 80'
Amairgen - 100'
Selene, Whitlok & Digga - 180'

(OOC: Ohhhhh, he's in range for next round [but only if he accepts an AoO]. Yeah, not going to do that Amairgen will move 20 feet closer next round, and that's it. Why that distance? Selene can then Run next round, being 20 feet behind. Then the round after, she can move 20 feet forward and cast a spell. Then he charges )

OOC: Well there's not much point to them being flat footed at that range as I can't sneak attack, and with their Dex being 8 there's no other benefit. As for shooting, well I would have thought disappearing into the forest would have given away that I wasn't going to fire, but I'll make sure to include specifics in future.

OOC: Cool, sorry, I focused on your wiating for a good shot, not the hiding. I try to be flexable in a PbP, because of all the potential confusion (Like the distance thing). No problem, and we'll be good in the future.

Hobbes screams and charges, muscles rippling under his thick hide, he draws out his... well, he didn't say, but he draws it and misses wildly with it. (I'm assuming it was the Talenta Sharrash) <<

Firavel (at 60', since he wanted to close stealthily last round), sees Hobbes in trouble, and continues to close stealthily, since the ogres are no longer heading his way (another double move sneak) to close to 30'.

Selene and Amairgen close further, though the bear slows down quite a bit. Selene is at 100', and Amairgen is 20' in front of her.

Whitlok continues to close, keeping up with Selene, with Digga right behind him.

Kerlokh sneaks forward, closing to 60' unseen.

Firavel - 30'
Kerlokh - 60'
Hobbes - 10' (Reach Melee)
Amairgen - 80'
Selene, Whitlok & Digga - 100'

Next Round

*Discarding her original plan since Hobbes is in deep trouble, Selene advances 20 feet and summons an Augmented Dire Wolf.*

*Amairgen doesn't want to be the only one to go in there to relieve Hobbes, but if other party members also enter melee, he will too.*
