(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 1

[Shadowedeyes]

Valda continues concentrating on the giant, hoping to take it down so that the only worry is the group of ogres. She swiftly strikes out with her blade, the spell of haste nearly making her sword arm a blur.

OOC: Sorry! Yesterday was last day of the month, which means I was basically working all day. Attack action on the giant, and use the haste action for one more attack after that. +1 Longsword Attack Rolls: 1D20+9 = [8]+9 = 17 1D20+9 = [5]+9 = 14 +1 Longsword Damage Rolls: 1D8+7 = [8]+7 = 15 1D8+7 = [8]+7 = 15 +1 Longsword Attack Roll: 1D20+9 = [16]+9 = 25 +1 Longsword Damage Roll: 1D8+7 = [4]+7 = 11

OOC: I will resolve things soon! Busy week.

Once again, Tenibor caused the courtyard to erupt in flames. The ogres were all badly burned, but survived. They were about to try for revenge by throwing everything they had at the elf wizard, when Eoghan created a swirl of colours that caught their attention. They stood, staring at it, confused enough that they failed to even pat out the flames that still burned on their garments.

Quinn shot down the young ogre who had been sent to raise the alarm. At the time, Jack was sighting his crossbow in that direction. When the young ogre dropped, he spun and shot the only adult ogre that had not succumbed to Eoghan's swirls. That ogre took the quarrel, and swung a club at Eoghan, that nearly drove the giant-kin to his knees.

Bible threw an axe at the hill giant as it fought with Valda. Over and over, it swung its club as Valda ducked and stabbed him, ducked and stabbed. Her movements were swift, but the giant was able to land one glancing blow.

OOC: Okay, here goes: Tenibor did 28 to Ogres 2, 3, 4 & 14 to Ogre1; Quinn did 28 to YOg2 (killing him) & healed Bible for 4; Jack did 13 to Ogre1 (shifted target); Ogre1 did 14 to Eoghan; HG2 did 14 to Valda. Bible & Valda together did 49 to HG2.

Tenibor looks up at the giant towering over him. He reminds the giant of its mortality (as he thinks of his own. But not today).

(OoC: Valda still +2 to AC, +1 attack; Toll the dead 10 dmg, Wis 16 for half. Ready to cast shield if hit, use luck to reroll con. check).

 

[Hriston]

Glass clinks as Bible stuffs her hand into a pouch on her belt, retrieving a vial of shimmering dark green liquid.

"I &%$!@ hates this stuff," she says, turning up her nose as she pops out the stopper with her thumb and gulps down the vile smelling liquid.

[FitzTheRuke]

While Bible reluctantly downed a potion, Tenibor again chimed a funereal note. Through his thick brutishness, the giant could tell that he would lose. He began to bellow, calling out to the watchtower to, ::Raise d'alarm! Smalls're raiding d'steading!::

Though it seemed unlikely that the guards in the watchtower did not hear the shout, the alarm did not immediately sound. Tenibor had taken the gong's mallet.

OOC: What did you do with it, BTW? It's the size of a maul. Oh, Tenibor did 10 to HG2. Bible healed 16.

 

[TerraDave]

The gong? Carrying it around like an anime character affectation, apparently.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Tenibor had grown used to the weight of the alarm-gong's mallet. He thought of it now, as the call went out and no alarm sounded. It wouldn't last - he was sure - soon the giants in the watchtower would come up with something to strike the gong. Presumably the sound of it would alert the whole steading, or what good would it be?

Time was running short.

 

[Lidgar]

Jack heard the hill giant yell something in his brutish tongue. ~That didn't sound good~ he thought to the others, as he reloaded his magical crossbow yet again. Jack then moved swiftly to his left to get a better angle on the giant before letting the bolt fly.

OOC: Jack moves AF36 and fires at HG2. Sneak attack with light crossbow: 1D20+10 = [6]+10 = 16 1D8+6+5D6 = [2]+6+[5, 1, 1, 1, 3] = 19
