Round 9

OOC: I believe Angis can make it to Gohrag this round and still attack? If not, then make them throws and he’ll draw more axes as needed.

Angis gave a dwarven battle cry. “T'dr'duzk b'hazg t't!”* He rushed up to Gohrag and slashed at the hobgoblin with his axes.

*"It’s the most menacing dwarf battle cry there is! Once it’s been shouted someone has to be killed!”
“What’s it mean?”

Titus & Tommi vs Bannerman2

While Morwin the tressym flew into the bannerman's face, Titus the wolf tore at the bannerman's arm with his teeth, trying to pull the creature down. The bannerman swung his banner around, scratching the wolf with a sharp blade hidden within. Switching his grip, the bannerman chopped with the cross-bar, and Morwin was puncture through. The familiar disappeared in a puff of fur and feathers.

Tommi came forward and slung a stone at the bannerman, who glanced over his shoulder as the stone hurled past. Then, in a flurry of fabric, the bannerman disappeared and appeared behind Tommi. Jynn's boy ducked just in time as the banner's sharp blade swung over his head.

Findledan vs Hobgoblin3

Having thrown Findledan off, the hobgoblin pulled a javelin off of the rack on his back. The storyteller had taken his sword, so he was forced to use the throwing weapon as a spear, lunging at the big human and piercing his thigh. Findledan was determined to be free and he ignored the sharp pain in his thigh as he lunged at the hobgoblin - and he ran the brute through.

Before the hobgoblin's body was fully on the ground, Findledan was on it, rummaging through its things for the heavy iron key that belonged to the manacles. There it was!

Of course, I also forgot Gohrag's leadership d4 (works like a "bless"). Still got him. Javelin: 1D20+3+1D4 = [13]+3+[1] = 17

 

[Fradak]

Reaching from behind, Enseth removes the javelin from his sparkling chest and using the same trajectory, throws it back at the sender. "I think you've lost something."

OOC: Javelin: 2D20.HIGH(1)+5= [19, 9]+ 5= 24 1D6+3 = [6]+3 = 9

 

[gargoyleking]

Averial was about to split her shots between the bannerman and the leader, but then the bannerman seemed to teleport and attacked Tommi. So she focussed her fure to try and finish him off while he was distracted. Unfortunately, the sudden change threw her aim off and both arrows likely missed.

Concerned with her own wounds, the elf moved to the side of the building and attempted to hide from at least some of the enemies behind the corner of the fireplace.

Dandin, Angis, & Enseth vs Gohrag, Archers1 & 3, and Hobgoblin4

Dandin taunted the slaver and ran off behind the building, waving the banner. Gohrag roared as Angis ran up and bashed him with a handaxe. The big hobgoblin pointed toward the little halfing, and his bodyguard ran off, chasing the halfling. The slaver swung his axe in frustration, smashing it into the ground next to Angis as the dwarf side-stepped. But the big hobgoblin was quick, and he got his frustration under control. He raised his axe again and hooked it on the dwarf's shoulder. He hauled Angis around and called to his Archer who shot the dwarf in the back. Angis fell to his knees.

Enseth hauled the javelin out of his torso and threw it back, striking the big hobgoblin in the shoulder. The slaver staggered back, releasing his hold on Angis, who fell onto his back. Gohrag called out and another Archer shot at Enseth, and the arrow went right into the hole in the shield guardian's plating.

Averiel vs Bannerman2

Averiel fired two arrows at the bannerman attacking Tommi, but the banner spun around and the arrows were lost amongst the swirling fabric. The elf scout ran off and disappeared into the shadow of a building.

[Fradak]

Enseth activates his defensive mode and, from behind his shield, shoots Angis with a quick fix dart. Then he sends ORB4 to help anyone targeting Gohrag.

[tglassy]

Titus runs to Angis’ defense, trying to pull the enemy to the ground.

Take the highest. : 1D20+4 = [4]+4 = 8
1D20+4 = [4]+4 = 8

 

[gargoyleking]

Dandin grinned to himself as he feint seems to have worked. He drops the banner uncerimoniously on the ground as he listens to the angry shouts coming around the other side of the building and spots the one already injured hobgoblin come up around the corner. As the greenskin eyes him and looks for their missing banner, Dandin draws his rapier and lunges. It was a good shot, but the blade scraped off of the creature's armor.

"Crud! A little help here?

Averial, watching this encounter, smiles to herself. Dandin was a rather sly one, she thought, though his plans didn't always pan out the way he seemed to envision them. Still, this gave her an opening and she loosed a pair of arrows.

If the first arrow downs the hobgoblin, the second would be aimed at Gorag. So as to not waste her sneak attacks. If possible.

 

[Kobold Stew]

Tommi, having slipped away from the Bannerman that had appeared suddenly beside him, takes a few steps and sees Angis in hand-to-hand combat with Ghorag.

Tommi lobs a stone towards the hulking leader, and continues onward, remaining on the balls of his feet.

OOC: Starting position 15' to the south of Bannerman 2 (CP41). Move 30' to CO 45 Attack Ghorag: roll 1d20+5=17; damage if a hit with sneak attack = 3d6+3=18 bludgeoning. (1 stone left) Bonus action: dodge. (reaction, if anyone ends turn w/in 5', is to move 15' away to safety).
