Heroes, Inc. : Rasheman

[DM_Matt]

"Hey, Kayla," Alethia says, settling down on a nearby chair, close enough to touch her in order to cast the necessary spells. "I'm not going to lie to you, this is going to be rather unpleasant to cut those quills out."

"While Devan is doing the cutting, I'll be casting ease pain and blocking it to the best of mine and Naverone's abilities." she smiled grimly. "I wish we could give you more than that, but your body won't be able to take any kind of drug that can knock you out."

Alethia looked at her fellow priest. "Ready my friend?" she asked, hands glowing with a familiar silvery light.

As she called on the ease pain spell, pure-white, nearly incandescent flames began to flicker over her body and as Devan cut out each quill embedded in Kayla, the flames spread out, licking at each open wound the quills leave behind, visably healing it.

(Clarification on the drug part, I said you can't knock her out all the way, but you can help quite a bit)

 

[DM_Matt]

So the Thayans are holding the gates for our way out?

Hawkeye

Yes, since opening the way out also paves the way for the Rashemi reinforcements to come in.

Timrin reigns Heironimous in behind Marco and his men. "Looks like you could use a little push?", he shouts jokingly. As he and Dyria dismount he says, "Gebereth and Khalid are dead but the Thayan army presses your brothers in the fields beyond. We need to stamp out this nest of vipers quickly and secure the walls."

"We can charge into the teeth of their defenses if you can cover us from the ground. We'll get you a foothold for you to bring your men up behind us. Agreed?"

"Anything we should know about what we face up there? Wizards or other nasty tricks?"

"Sounds like a plan. Its mostly warriors, but there is at least one powerful wizard in there."

 

[kirinke]

Alright, will edit to reflect.

 

[Hawkeye]

"Sounds like a plan. Its mostly warriors, but there is at least one powerful wizard in there."

"Who wants the wizard?

Hawkeye

 

[Steve Gorak]

"Who wants the wizard?

"He should be our prime target. Once he is out, the warriors will be more manageable. Shando, you and I should seek him out and dispatch him as quickly as possible."

 

[frostrune]

"He should be our prime target. Once he is out, the warriors will be more manageable. Shando, you and I should seek him out and dispatch him as quickly as possible."

Timrin nods in agreement. And then, as if the matter is settled, turns and readies his shield and prepares to charge up the stairs into the teeth of the fight.

"My shield draws arrows to it. I will lead followed by Dyria. We will try and clear a path for the rest of you to reach the thayan commander and end this quickly."

He looks at each one of you to make sure you are ready then nods at Marco. His men part and Timrin leads the charge through the breach and into a storm of arrows.

OOC: My general tactics are to fight defensively (-4 to hit, +2 AC) and steadily progress up the stairs making liberal use of power attack (-6 to hit, +12 damage), divine might (+6 damage) and cleave.

I will be AC 40 vs ranged attacks, AC 39 vs melee. My shield actually attracts arrows fired at adjacent foes so this might help deflect some attacks from Dyria as well. My attacks will be +18/+13/+8/+3, dmg 2d6+32 + holy.

 

[Falkus]

"Right into the breech. Just how I like it," Dyria said, as she prepared herself for the attack.

Dyria will follow Tim as he suggested, using her whip to attack any enemies that get in their way or seem to be giving Tim any trouble. She'll make liberal use of her tripping and disarming abilities, and use power attack 6 and crack of doom.

+21/+21/+21/+16/+11/+6
Damage: 1d6 + 23 + 1d6 electricity
Critical: 17-20/x2

 

[Hawkeye]

Shando follows the warriors up the stairs. clearing the way as needed, waiting for access to the wizard.

"Beware, the wizard may pull the same trick as when you did the same with your mount."

Hawkeye

The group on the ground charges in, only to crash into a barrier. It seems the wizard just put up a wall of force. Some defenders shoot arrows into the crowd from a window, though, proving that the wall does not go all the way up.
