Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

[Maidhc O Casain]

OOC:

I thought attacks of opportunity were only when leaving a threatened square. In fact, I'm sure I've asked about this before because I thought my character should get one and didn't.

Morwyn

Morwyn can't manage to hit the crossbowman, but his axe does find the Shaman. The northman crumples his brain visible through his cleft skull.

I'll give a roar of triumph/relief, while giving my weapons a flick to clear them of blood, etc., hopefully spraying the ogre and crossbowman.

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

OCC - Scott, did I manage to collect any daggers?

!!!

Radoon approaches the ogre and attack on Ogre (1d20+11=12) - This should be fun for the DM

Radoon sees Rook leave and wonders why this guy is always avoiding combat, is he scared to stand and fight? We had this guy cornerned, now we've divided our forces.

That's the deal with reach. The ogre threatens an extra square out. Thus, when you move to 10' out you enter a threatened square. When you move another 5' closer into the adjacent square so you can hit him, you are leaving that 1st threatened square. If you only take a 5' step it doesn't apply, so Morwyn largely avoided this problem as he mounted the bar.

OOC: Radoon does manage to collect the pair of daggers that hit the woman. The other one is here close to the Ogre, so you can recover the third next round. Of course with that natural one you might drop another.

OOC: I like it. You can roll a free intimidate check vs. the three of them.

Morwyn

Intimidate (1d20+2=8).

OOC: The roll has a further modifier of either -1 (Cha) or +4 (Str), depending on whether you're using the alternative rule for Barbarians. Either way, Morwyn doesn't appear very intimidating.

I'm glad you liked it; it seemed like a suitably barbaric thing to do.

Rook

Your tumble roll for the first foe, in this case the ogre you are currently facing who has reach is 15, so the 16 is good enough. You need to make a second roll for the ogre you are approaching, again due to reach. As it is the second foe the DC goes up by 2, so 17.

Second Tumble to avoid Ogre AoO (1d20+12=29)

Finn Hunter

Finn continues to dance about the table, calling to the boar to keep it's attention on him so it will not attack the ladies. "Pork chops and hams, bacon and hogshead cheese. Come to market, little piggy, just watch for the butcher's blade because you will never make it back over the barn door sill after you meet it."

OOC: Maintaining defensive posture until we can get substantial reinforcements to take care of this Memphis in May nightmare. I should have known eating barbecue on Thursday was a bad sign for Finn. /OOC

 

[Scotley]

Morwyn waves his axe in an arc while standing on the bar over the fallen shaman. The blood of their leader splattering on them only enflames the forces behind the bar to greater effort. Radoon moves to the Ogre at the end of the bar only to lose his balance as the Ogre stabs at him with a javelin. The old sailor barely stays on his feet and his swing goes far wide of the mark. Finn keeps taunting his feindish foe from his tabletop.

OOC: Sorry more in a bit.
