Message: <blockquote data-quote="YeOldeAlbatross" data-source="post: 3776423" data-attributes="member: 52884">ROUND 4Loricallior gives up on pinpointing the illusion magic until after the cauldron is defeated and dashes to the left side of the cottage so as to get a clear shot at the iron monstrosity with his dragonfire. Again, a jet of flame roars forth from the wild elf's maw, engulfing the now-cracked kettle. To Loricallior's chagrin, however, the flame seems to have little effect on the cauldron's tough outer exterior. (Loricallior attacks with breath weapon, cauldron succeeds on REF save. Damage total is 3, negated by cauldron's hardness. No damage.)Pulling himself against the wall in something resembling a sitting position, Cyryn scans the room, looking for anything that might make a more effective weapon against the cauldron or anything that might pose an additional threat. With so much magical bric-a-brac on the shelves of the small cottage, it proves too difficult for Cyryn to identify anything that looks like it would help to end this battle. Fortunately, no threats or guardians other than the cauldron appear to be present.Jebbo, daggers drawn and at the ready, glances to Hakkara, then to Jared, giving a brisk nod to each. He then proceeds to elaborately flourish his daggers, spinning and jabbing them in the direction of the cauldron, attempting to get its attention. "Hey there, rustbum! Care t'dance a li'l?" Jebbo darts back and forth, trying to appear as quick and dangerous as possible, a knowing smile crosses his features as he prepares to dodge the cauldron's iron maw. The cauldron, however, seems completely unfazed by Jebbo's antics. (Nazh, Jebbo can't actually do two standard actions in one round, so I just had him try to Aid Another for Hakkara's attack roll. Jebbo, Aid Another attempt. Roll 3+1=4. Failed.)Flush with the prospect of victory close at hand, Hakkara continues her vicious, whirlwind assault of the cauldron. Once again, her bastard sword falls and strikes the cauldron with a mighty clang. This time, the force of the blow is more than the enchanted iron kettle can withstand. Hakkara's blade cleaves the side of the cauldron, nearly splitting the thing in two. This final blow proves too much for the animated guardian, and the horrendously damaged cauldron falls to the ground with one final metallic clang, then lies still. (Hakkara full attacks with bastard sword, rolls 7+5=12, miss. 18+5=23, hit! Damage roll 1d10+8=17. After hardness, cauldron takes 12 damage, destroying it!)END COMBATCurrent Party StatusLoricallior (12/12 hp)Cyryn (0/7 hp, disabled)Jebbo (8/8 hp)Hakkara (11/14 hp)Jared (9/9 hp)OOC: Well fought!
