(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 1

[Blue]

OOC: Quinn notices the curtain move and ducked, closing his eyes as the bag of flour burst across him. He hears Jack's mental command to shut the other door and pushes into it to force it closed. He then turns and casts a bolt of starlight at the giantess. Quinn then moves away from the door closer to his other companions. OOC: Dex Save: 1d20+3 15 Guiding bolt attack and damage: 1d20+10 21 4d6 12 I will then move to Q44 Quinn: AC17* HP 62/62 HD 9/9 PP19 SSdc18 4/4 3/3 3/3 3/3 0/1 WS 1/2 GB 1/4 CO 2/4 ET 1/1 DS 1/1 H 1/1 MS 1/1 Ba 1/1 I hate to say it, but the Guiding Bolt would have disadvantage against a prone target since it's a ranged attack roll. If it does hit, the giantess will get an immediate save vs. Tasha's with advantage.

OOC: Crap forgot about that. Let me change my action. Give me a couple.

 

[VLAD the Destroyer]

OOC: Ok so I edited my post to have the spell attack Orog 1 instead. Sorry about that.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Quinn sent a bolt of starlight at the plate-throwing orog, and got out of the puff of flour as it settled. Valda and her orog opponent stepped away from each other long enough to wipe their eyes. The now softly glowing plate-thrower yelled to the orcs, ::Ged da castahs! Killem before dey kill us all!::

While he threw plates at Quinn, who headed westward, dodging one plate before being struck hard with a second. Orcs near the fireplaces pulled hot pokers and ran toward Quinn and Tenibor, using the pokers like fiery metal spears. Quinn managed to block, but Tenibor needed to conjure a magical shield to stop himself from being skewered. Far across the room, another orc took to throwing wood from a woodpile. It was a long throw, and his first hunk of wood went over everyone's heads and thumped off the door behind Jack.

Another orog opened a door to the north and began frantically speaking to an orc on the other side. An orc and an orog ran to the west, and threw open the doors to the courtyard, where dire-wolves sat at attention, expecting kitchen treats.

OOC: Quinn did 12 to Orog1, who hit him with a plate for 10! Tenibor had to shield a hot poker.

[FitzTheRuke]

Just as it seemed that the giantess would stop laughing, she burst into guffaws once more, with tears rolling down her cheeks.

OOC: Oh, I should have given the giantess a chance to stop laughing: dc17 Wis Save: 1D20-2 = [3]-2 = 1 Nope!

 

[Blue]

Distaste for his own joke still obvious on his face, Eoghan turned away from the laughter of the giantess towards the orcs coming in. He chanted a growing series of low notes, focusing behind the two orcs. The notes grew, finding the resonant frequencies of their weapons, their teeth, their very bones, until it was all released with a crack.

OOC: Eoghan cast Shatter about behind Orc 1 & 2. It's a 10' radius, he's doing it far enough back to avoid Quinn while getting both of them. It's a DC 17 CON save for half damage. So 18 thunder damage on a fail or just 9 if they succeed. Shatter: 3D8 = [6, 7, 5] = 18 Eoghan AC15 HP 75/75 THP 8/8 HD 9/9 PP19 SSdc17 1/4 1/3 3/3 2/3 1/1 BI 2/5

~We seem to be fighting everything except what we came here to fight~

(as per the implied order) Tenibor waits to see the fate of the sonicly blasted orcs before acting.

 

[Lidgar]

Jack smiles grimly as the giant falls. Now pressed to either side, he glances to his right and widens his eyes as the flour settles and he sees a much larger Valda. ~Neat trick, that,~ he thinks to her as he trains Darling on the orc attacking her flank.

OOC: Jack attacks orc 8. Sneak attack with light crossbow: 1D20+10 = [4]+10 = 14 1D8+6+5D6 = [8]+6+[3, 3, 6, 1, 2] = 29 Jack AC17 HP 66/66 THP 8/8 HD 9/9 PP20 LK 2/3 Ammo 15/20

 

[Hriston]

Assuming Eoghan has the two charging orcs handled with his spell, Bible goes for the plate throwing orog, clambering onto the body of the fallen chef. She then makes a mighty leap from the giant's knee up onto the nearest edge of the trestle table.

OOC: Bible moves to R42 and makes a standing jump. Dexterity check to land in difficult terrain: 1D20+4 = [12]+4 = 16

She then makes another jump across the table to land within reach of the orog.

OOC: Dexterity check to land in difficult terrain: 1D20+4 = [18]+4 = 22

:: Didn't your mother teach you you shouldn't throw the good china?:: asks Bible, standing over the orog on the table, and strikes down at it with her longsword.

OOC: Bible lands at P39. Longsword, +1, attack with advantage from guiding bolt: 2D20.HIGH(1)+10 = [9, 14]+10 = 24 Damage: 1D8+8 = [6]+8 = 14 Longsword, +1, attack: 1D20+10 = [18]+10 = 28 Damage: 1D8+8 = [2]+8 = 10
