[QUOTE="doghead, post: 6081059, member: 8243"] [b]Day Two - Battle with the gnolls at Henri's house - Round 4[/b] Sukri continues to lurk in the shadows beside the door, ready to assist Bayar or attack anything that might get past the fighter. Libros prepares to casts his spell. An arrow strikes the frame of the window, splintering the timber, before clattering onto the floor in the room behind the sorcerer. Shaken but unhurt, Libros cast. The sphere of acid spatters harmlessly on the ground. Bayar presses home his attack, the blade narrowly missing the exposed part of the gnoll's neck ... the blade cutting deep into the exposed part of the gnolls neck. The gnoll collapses to the ground, lifeless. Jan casts Dancing Lights, dispelling the gloom that cloaked the activities in front of the door. The two dogs continue to attack Bayar. Covered in blood, one of the dogs sinks his teeth into Bayar's leg, before thawing his weight to one side. Bayar crashes to the ground. In a heartbeat the other dog is on top of Bayer, mauling at the fighter's arm. Now illuminated by Jan's dancing lights, the third of the attacking gnolls tosses aside a small vial before hauling his once unconscious companion to his feet. Barking and roaring, he forces a weapon into his companion's hand before grabbing his own. Sukri, seeing Bayar fall, steps from the shadows and into the doorway. He slide his rapier into the chest of the blood covered dog. It collapses, releasing its grip on Bayar. Focusing on his training, his hands place themselves in position, as if wielding an imaginary weapon. Then, materializing from his hands and extending through them, a shaft appears, made of iron. It continues to extend itself, until the head of it flattens out and opens to a wide blade. Completed, Eban now wields a Glaive. [SBLOCK=OOC Round 4]CONDITIONS SUMMARY * Jan: Inspire Courage +1 morale bonus vs charm and fear, +1 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. Duration Round 4 of 7. * Jan: Dancing Lights Duration ... * Eban: Bless +1 morale bonus on attack rolls and on saving throws against fear effects, Duration Rounds 1-10 * Eban: Misfortune Allies 10 or lower. Enemies 15 or higher. * * Round 2 Applied to Gnoll 2. * * Round 3 Applied to Libros. * * Round 4 Applied to Bayar. * Bayar: Wounded (6). Prone. * Dog 1: Dying. * Gnoll 1: Wounded (5) * Gnoll 2: Dead. For clarification, earlier in the story the third gnoll hauled the dying gnoll out from under the feet of the second gnoll. Now they are both five feet back from where Bayar is now prone in the doorway. Sukri is standing inside the door, on the right. Eban is next to him on the left. Neither of the gnolls is threatening Sukri or Eban at the moment. Eban and Sukri have line of sight to the remaining dog and the two gnolls. Closing with any of the dog would require a 5ft step and mean entering the space occupied by Bayer. Closing with the gnolls would require a move action passing through the space occupied by Bayar (and over a dead gnoll). COMBAT SUMMARY Gnoll 4: Attack 14 (Miss). Libros: Attack 3+2 (Miss). Jan: Cast while performing 24 (Success). Bayar: Attack Roll 9. * Misfortune Re-roll 26 (Hit). Damage 20. Miss Chance 26 (N/A) Dog 1: Attack 20 (Hit) Damage 6. Trip Successful. Dog 2: Attack vs prone 16 (Hit). Damage 3. Sukri: Attack 14 (Hit) Damage 8. * While technically not a sneak attack because the dog still has his Dex bonus to AC, I rolled damage as a sneak attack because, well, it seemed kind of like a sneaky attack.[/SBLOCK] [/QUOTE]
