IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part V(b)

[sblock=oc]I ran through and tried to calc rounds since fly. depending on how long we spent coup de gras-ing the drow elf on the ledge it's been 10 rounds or (1 minute of course) since we cast fly out of the 7 (14 for Kushnak of course) minutes that the spell lasts.

maybe 11 rounds...[/sblock]

Erdolliel, having gotten the drop on the group of drow, Erdolliel let's loose a raging storm of ice. From nowhere, huge junks of hail form and pelt the dark elves. While two of the drow completely shrug off the magic, the other four are soon covered with abrasions and gashes.

One of the drow on the upper ledge moves just outside of the hail. Squinting through the hail, it points a crossbow in Erdolliel's direction.

[sblock=OOC]I voted best house and moved Kushnak a little bit, in light of o3's action. Seriously, watch me like a hawk for awhile, and double-check my stuff.

Erdolliel: ice storm hits everyone; spell resistance checks 12+, 18+, 9+, 10+, 12+, 2+; numbers 3 and 6 resist the spell; 11 bludgeoning & 6 cold damages

Erdolliel pulls back and calls in the calvary.[sblock=oc]Move to a place where she can touch Kushnak and not get hit by crossbows. Cast Enlarge Person on Kushnak. He increases one size category for the next 80 rounds.[/sblock]
 

Erdolliel flies back and casts her spell on Kushnak.

Through the noise of the ice storm, Erdolliel can make out the words to a spell.

[sblock=OOC]I wasn't sure where E wanted to go. So I just put you flying either above or below K.

Erdolliel: moves; enlarge person on K
3: moves; casts divine favor (E is the only one that succeeds in hearing the spell, however)
5: readies

Kushnak is next.

Status & Init:
2 (23): 17 damage; readied
Erdolliel (19):
3 (slower 19):
5 (15): 17 damage
Kushnak (13): enlarged
Nethezar (11):
6 (slower 11):
4 (7): 17 damage
1 (5): 17 damage

Fly in effect ~ 11 rounds. [/sblock]
 

[sblock=oc]Apparently Erdolliel only prepares full round spells. Presumably Kushnak isn't actually big until the end of the casting which is immediately before her next turn? So delay until then.[/sblock]

Kushnak waits for the ice storm to abate.
 

[sblock=OOC]Poop. I didn't notice. I guess that means Erdolliel could only have moved a 5-foot step, right? If that is the case, she wouldn't be able to touch Kushnak, right? Hmmmmm....[/sblock]
 

[sblock=oc]I've color coded my casting times to try to keep this from happening... After much discussion, I'm goign to change my action.

Erdolliel steps 5' up and E ( in order to be 65 feet away from #2, if #2 doesn't have a hand crossbow and Erdolliel can tell as much, this action will change again...) while drawing her Longbow. She then fires a volley at the drow that sees her. +12 (with a +1 height advantage included), +7, 1d8+2 damage 3x crit mod if I roll a 20. [/sblock]
 



[sblock=OOC]Let's try again![/sblock]
Erdolliel moves slightly back and fires a shot at the drow through the hail. The dark elf very nearly avoids the arrow, but not quite. He grunts in frustration as the arrow slices open his shoulder.

Erdolliel, through the storm, sees one of the drow, a female, cast a divine spell of power.

Of of the three drow near the front summons innate power. Suddenly, Erdolliel is covered in a blue light, which would make it nearly impossible for the elf to slip into the cover of the shadows again.

[sblock=OOC]Erdolliel: steps; draws bow; shoots 2, 7+ hits, 6 damage
3: moves; casts divine favor (E is the only one that succeeds in hearing the spell, however)
5: faerie fire spell-like ability on E

Kushnak is next.

Status & Init:
2 (23): 23 damage; readied
Erdolliel (19): faerie fire
3 (slower 19):
5 (15): 17 damage
Kushnak (13):
Nethezar (11):
6 (slower 11):
4 (7): 17 damage
1 (5): 17 damage

Fly in effect ~ 11 rounds.[/sblock]
