[QUOTE="JustinCase, post: 7361943, member: 6776182"] As Thadius takes a defensive stance as he and Belig study each other for weaknesses. The goblin seems far more dangerous than its companions, obviously trained in the art of war, and as the tiefling watches Belig twists deftly to deflect a javelin from Magdalena with his shield. Continuing his movement, the armored goblin smoothly turns and steps toward Thadius, spinning the flail towards the tiefling noble and stepping back instantly. Thadius, fully prepared for the assault, easily sidesteps the flail, but the goblin next to him manages to take advantage of the situation by delivering a nasty cut with his scimitar on the tiefling's upper leg. Behind Thadius, Gorir takes advantage of the other goblins' surprise to move in and crushing one goblin's skull with his warhammer, using the momentum to keep swinging his mighty weapon and landing a powerful blow to the other creature's chest, the air leaving its lungs in a great sigh. In return, the still standing goblinoid, feeling lucky because of his hit on the tiefling, tries to wound the dwarf as well but hitting only a shield, not impressing anyone. A crossbow bolt from James moves over the melee harmlessly. Realizing his forte lies not in taking hits from dangerous goblin weaponry, Traubon stays in the corner and hurls a magical bolt of flame at the largest of the creatures, hitting Belig on the side of its head and blackening its fierce looking helmet. [ooc]Goblin actions; see rolls in next posts: - Belig: Attacks Thadius with disadvantage and with extra damage (Fury of the Small), then Disengages (Nimble Escape) and moves to P6. - goblin 2: dead, killed by Gorir - goblin 3: Opportunity attack at Thadius, then on its turn, attacks Gorir. Gorir can add the [I]Guidance [/I]bonus only to one check, so either attack or damage. I'd say he hits on his second attack due to the bonus, but doesn't bring the goblin down. Also, both Gorir and Thadius try to move into the same square (M6) so I took the liberty of leaving Gorir at L6 so he can finish the other goblin off next round. I hope that's okay. Alright, for the time being I'll NPC Traubon until eayres returns or asks me differently. Don't know if I'll keep this up, but for now I see no real reason to let his character run off. Traubon casts a [I]Fire bolt[/I] at Belig. [sblock=Map][ATTACH=CONFIG]94862._xfImport[/ATTACH][/sblock] [sblock=Stats] James AC15 8/8 Gorir AC18 11/11 Thadius AC15 8/14 [I](took 8 damage - resistance)[/I] Traubon AC16 9/9 Magdalena AC16 12/12 Goblin #1 AC15 0/7 deceased Goblin #2 AC15 0/7 deceased Goblin #3 AC15 2/7 Belig AC18 25/26 [/sblock] [/ooc] [/QUOTE]
