(IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 2

[FitzTheRuke]

Duvrael, Kaligan, and the Colonel's flying trident engaged in a ferocious battle in the corner of the kitchen. The orogs thrust their pikes as the wizard flung fire and the psychic warrior cut, thrust, and parried, defending them both.

The colonel had shocked one of the orogs with lightning as it passed him by and he tried to reach for the door to close it, but the giants were in his way and one of them slammed a chair into his shield, knocking him back a step.

OOC: Colonel did 18 to Orog2 (I chose this one to not have to backtrack). Duvrael and Kaligan killed Orog1. Kaligan did 8 to Orog2 and the trident did 7 to Orog3. The living orogs missed, as did the schlub with a chair. Colonel can't close the door, but can choose another action. Just @Steve Gorak Gimlak to go to roll the round.

Spoiler: Rolls

Orog3 Opp Attack vs Kaligan: 1D20+6 = [10]+6 = 16
Orog2 Pike vs Kaligan: 1D20+6 = [8]+6 = 14
Orog3 Pike vs Duvrael: 1D20+6 = [2]+6 = 8
HGS2 vs ColonelChair: 1D20+4 = [6]+4 = 10

 

[Steve Gorak]

Gimlack moves behind Doc, and Lashes at the remaining Orog's mind

OOC: Move to O 37 action: cast Mind Sliver on Orog 5, Intelligence save DC 17 or2 psychic damage, and subtract 1 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of your next turn. (dang, rolled 3x 1 on Coyote code. low low odds of that!). bonus action: convert 4th level slot to spell points Concentrating on hunger of hadar Spell points 8 (12 base - 4 psionic cast summon aberration, - psionic cast 4 hunger of hadar + 4 conversion) Spells level 1: 4/4 ; level 2: 2/3 ; level 3: 3/3 ; level 4: 2/3 ; level 5: 1/1 (cast tashals mind whip (level 2) and converted 4th level spell slot to spell points)

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Gimlak did some mental shuffling, reorganizing his psychic powers and concentrating on the sphere of horrid darkness. He made a weak attempt to spike the mind of one of the orogs, and found it easy enough to get in. The orog was distracted enough that Kahru's dire wolves made their move: They pounced into the fray, knocking down and mauling the remaining orogs.

Now the only enemies who remained were three ugly and stupid-looking giants: The chef's wife with her rocks in the little bedroom, and the two who were swinging chairs through the door at the Colonel, slamming them into his shield.

OOC: Between Gimlak and the wolves, the orogs are dead. The colonel can still do his revised action, but I'm going to roll the round anyway so we can keep up momentum. Oh, almost forgot. HGS1 got the Colonel for 8.

Spoiler: Rolls

HGS1 Chair vs Colonel: 1D20+4 = [16]+4 = 20 for 2D8+4 = [3, 1]+4 = 8
Dire Wolves
DW1 Bite vs Orog2: 1D20+5 = [10]+5 = 15 for 2D6+3 = [2, 2]+3 = 7
DW2 Bite vs Orog3: 1D20+5 = [10]+5 = 15 for 2D6+3 = [2, 3]+3 = 8

Kaligan sees the Colonel standing alone against two giants. Making a quick decision, he moves quickly to the Colonel's side. Kaligan's longsword darts about and bites into the Schlub not once, but twice. During the skirmish, Kaligan spares a moment to glance back towards Schlub #1 and telekinetically pulls it into the darkness.

OOC: Two attacks on Schlub #2: 1D20+8 = [11]+8 = 19 1D20+8 = [8]+8 = 16 Total Damage 17: 1D8+4 = [7]+4 = 11 1D8+4 = [2]+4 = 6 I'm also using the Telekinetic feat as a bonus action to pull Schlub #1 5 feet towards me which gets it into the darkness there. Strength attack of 23 vs. the giants passive strength +3 1D20+8 = [15]+8 = 23

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Kaligan moved to the north to help the Colonel. He stabbed one of the two giants in her fat belly with his sword while shielding himself from her swings of a big oak chair. In the small room, the chef's wife was preparing to throw a rock at the gunslinger, and Kaligan telekinetically yanked her arm, pulling her into Gimlak's darkness. The rock thumped to the floor and she pulled herself back out yelling, ::Aaah! It bited me!::

OOC: Kaligan did 17 to HGS2, who missed him. Hunger did 12 to HGS1 (wife) who missed Doc.

Spoiler: Rolls

Schlubs
HGS1 Rock vs Doc: 1D20+4 = [5]+4 = 9
HGS2 Chair vs Kaligan 1D20+4 = [7]+4 = 11 PFFT. Schlubs suck.
Hunger
Damage to HGS1: 2D6 = [6, 6] = 12 Max. Dice roller is on your side!

With the two schlubs blocked behind the doorway by the Leaper and the Colonel, Kahru moves towards the giants wife, over the corpses of the fallen orogs attacking her with tooth and claw

OOC: Multiattack Bite: 1D20+7 = [6]+7 = 13 Bite: 1D8+5 = [4]+5 = 9 Claws:1D20+7 = [13]+7 = 20 Claws: 2D6+5 = [5, 1]+5 = 11 Total Damage 20

 

[FitzTheRuke]

With the two schlubs blocked behind the doorway by the Leaper and the Colonel, Kahru moves towards the giants wife, over the corpses of the fallen orogs attacking her with tooth and claw.

OOC: I love it, but the shortest distance I can count between you and her is 60 feet, if I play very loose with difficult terrain. Bear's speed is 40.

 

[Steve Gorak]

As Gimlak moves forward, he focuses his mind on the giant that has not been wounded yet by Kaligan, and he helps the bear move a bit more forward.

OOC: action: mind sliver on schlub#3, Intelligence save DC 17 or 3 psychic damage and substract 2 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of your next turn. Bonus action: telekinetic shove bear 5 ft forward Move: to R 33

 

[Tonguez]

OOC: I love it, but the shortest distance I can count between you and her is 60 feet, if I play very loose with difficult terrain. Bear's speed is 40.

OOC: Ah! I had assumed that when Kaligan had yanked her forward she had come into range (us both being large) - also thank you Gimlak for the shove ;D
