(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 1

[Lidgar]

"Aye, Bible, to the other doors then - assuming they're not barred too."

Jack then moved to the untested doors and gave them a firm, but hopefully quiet, shove.

 

[Hriston]

Bible follows Jack to the eastern doors, ready to wield Waythe at the first sign of trouble.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Jack pushed on the doors. While they were very heavy, it came as perhaps something of a surprise that they swung open, inward. It was even more of a surprise to the hill giant behind them, whose back was to Jack, and who turned and looked at the wooden bar that was leaning up against the wall with a confused expression that could only mean that she was thinking, who forgot to bar the door!?

It only secondarily occurred to her that she was in danger, and she began to reach for her club.

The immediate space was an L-shaped mudroom, with doors that would likely lead to the Great Hall on Jack's right. Piled near the door were several pairs of giant boots. Past the hill giant on guard, the room widened to a large dormitory, with a dozen beds, a blazing fireplace, and braziers hanging from the rafters.

A half-dozen young hill giants were lounging on the beds or playing push-and-shove in front of the hearth. They all looked northward to the newly opened door with foolish, confused expressions.

[Hriston]

Bible runs and leaps through the open doorway at the unprepared hill giant, holding Waythe extended above her head in both hands, hoping to strike the giant down swiftly before she has a chance to reach for her club.

OOC: Waythe: 1D20+10 = [10]+10 = 20 Slashing damage: 4D6+6 = [3, 2, 3, 2]+6 = 16 and the giant must make a DC 15 Strength saving throw or fall prone.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Waythe struck the giant with a solid blow, leaving a gash, but the giant kept her feet.

 

[Hriston]

Bible strikes at the giant again, saying, :: Don't take this wrong, but ya gots a face I likes to touch.::

OOC: Waythe: 1D20+10 = [7]+10 = 17 Slashing damage: 4D6+6 = [3, 5, 3, 4]+6 = 21 The giant must make a DC 15 Strength saving throw or fall prone.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Once again Bible sliced with Waythe. This time, the giant stumbled and fell on her hands and knees, while slowly but desperately reaching for her great club.

 

[Shadowedeyes]

Valda advances alongside Bible, circling around the giant as she slashed at the the downed giant.

OOC: Moving to BC 42 and attacking the giant. +1 Longsword Attack Rolls: 1D20+9 = [13]+9 = 22 1D20+9 = [6]+9 = 15 +1 Longsword Attack Rolls: 1D20+9 = [3]+9 = 12 1D20+9 = [13]+9 = 22 +1 Longsword Damage rolls: 1D8+7 = [2]+7 = 9 1D8+7 = [3]+7 = 10

 

[Hriston]

OOC: @Shadowedeyes, remember the giant is prone giving you advantage on those attacks. You might get a crit!
