[QUOTE="Matthan, post: 6800813, member: 20005"] [SBLOCK=OOC]I mentioned this in the OOC thread, but I want to post here to make sure it catches everyone. I was not clear enough beginning this fight. There was no surprise round (they had a lousy stealth roll and there are a couple of effects that mitigate/prevent surprise as well). So what I did is have those of you who had higher initiatives take a readied action (that used your reaction) for the danger that you knew was coming (no surprise). In practical terms, that means that those of you essentially everyone needs to give me two actions. The first is the readied action or the attack of opportunity (depending on where you fall in initiative). The second is your next full round which will occur before the wyrmlings next round. Hopefully that's making sense. I learned a big lesson here, folks. I apologize for the confusion and will try to be much clearer (and make jokes after that). To help make up for it and make this post more than just an apology, I'm going to give a little more color for you guys behind a free skill check (no impact on your actions so you will still attack, cast spells, etc...)[/SBLOCK] [SBLOCK=Nature Check DC 10]The creatures don't seem to be acting in any real coordinated fashion.[/SBLOCK] [SBLOCK=Nature Check DC 15]The creatures seem half-starved and driven nearly feral by hunger.
