Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

H'Roosh

Sensing the difficult odds facing the party, Geoffrey will go into a full defensive stance and begin a prayer. When he finishes he says "H'roosh, Raddon, take the devil, I am best against the lich"

[sblock=For Geoffrey]Thanks, Todd! H'Roosh doesn't have any of the requisite knowledge skills, so won't know any better and will follow Geoffrey's lead, but that's terrible instruction for him. :p His fists count as magic, and they are bludgeoning, so his attacks would be fully effective against the Lich. They do NOT count as good (even when they start counting as Aligned Weapons they'll be Lawful, not Good) so he's not going to be worth CRAP against the Devil - assuming he hits, even if he maxes out on damage he'll do 2 points.[/sblock]

[sblock=Radoon]The priest is going to move before you action such that Radoon only has to take a five foot step to reach him, so go ahead and roll 3 more attacks. He has no damage reduction, so only the Lich and the Devil will require special weapons to hit them.[/sblock]
 

Round 3 partial

Initiative:

Priest 20
Radoon 19
Undead Singer 18
Anson 17
H'Roosh 16
Geoffrey 14
Devil 13
Lich 13
Marienna 10
Gnurl 10
Slaves 8
Mingo 6
Mig 5

The dark priest moves again and casts another spell. Sweeping his arm about and clutching it to his chest, he draws the last breaths of the fallen slaves from their choking mouths and inhales them to fuel his own power. He seems to crackle with increased magical power and his arms bulge with new muscle. His wounds close and he seems even tougher than when the fight started. Around him the dying slaves all cease their death throws with permanent grimaces of pain and betrayal painted on their faces. OOC: Consumptive Field is one nasty spell!

Radoon wipes the sinister smile of the priest's face as he stabs him a solid blow to the chest. Radoon lets loose with a flurry of dagger attacks as the priest moves toward him, he manages to hit once and as almost an after thought, he hits again with a backhand attack.

Anson advances and cuts down the remaining two slaves. Mig follows on his heels.

H'Roosh advances on the Priest and strikes him twice.

Geoffrey raises his weapon in defense and pauses to cast a spell.

[sblock=Geoffrey]You need to roll a DC19 concentration skill check to cast on the defensive or risk an attack of opportunity from the Devil. Also, I didn't see your will save vs. the Devil's fear aura DC:17 last round.[/sblock]

The devil continues its attacks (1d20+15=33, 1d20+13=18, 1d20+13=24, 1d20+13=21) and depite Geoffrey's best defense scores a bite (1d8+6=10). "I love having cleric for breakfast," the Devil hisses in Geoffrey's face and licks the fresh blood from his lips with a disgusing prehensile tongue.

The Lich casts a quick spell and releases a bolt of lightening (13d6=46) at Geoffrey, the bolt then bounces to H'Roosh (23), Anson (12), Radoon (6), Mingo (3), Gnurl, (2) and Marienna (1). (reflex saves for half)

Marienna fires her crossbow at the Priest, but misses wide, perhaps trying too hard not to accidentally strike Radoon.

Again, Gnurl calls out his familiar refrain, "Entschuldigung!" and five magic missiles streak into the lich. The missiles simply wink out of existance as the reach the Lich. Such minor magic may not be a match for the raw arcane power of such a being. (spell resistance)

Mingo steps forward and lets the skiprocks fly. Two strike the Priest, while the third goes wide.

OOC: Round 4 actions please.

OOC: I need actions for Mingo, Mig and Anson as well as additional attacks from Radoon to finish the round. The rest of you please wait and I'll get to you as soon as possible.

OOC: H'Roosh will, of course, move one square to the northeast (E7, I think, but I'm not looking at the map) in order to be able to continue his attacks on the Priest.

OOC: Anson moved in round 3. Anson is trying to get rid of the last 2 slaves in the way. Mingo doesn't go until last, so shouldn't the lich and devil go next?
 


Mingo Frasse (HP73/76 AC27*) Anson (HP47/63 AC21) Mig (HP35/35 AC19)

Mingo takes a 5-foot step and slings three skiprocks at the Priest, hitting twice.

Mingo takes 3/2=1.5=1 point of lightning damage (from 74 down to 73)

D'oh!

OOC: Reflex save vs. Chain Lightning is DC: 20, sorry.

OOC: Okay, I'm going to add Mingo's attacks to the post above, consider round 3 concluded and post actions for round 4.
 

Round 4

OOC: Since the Priest is first...

Taking a defensive stance, the Priest casts another spell. Those close to him can since that he seems to be filled with extra raw power that he throws into the casting. A cold, cloying miasma of greasy darkness sweeps out from the Priest and rolls over everyone, but Gnurl. He manages to be just outside the cloud. The dark magic seems to burn your soul and the evil of it sickens you.

[sblock=Good Characters]Unholy Blight damage (5d8=26) Will Save DC 19 for half. If you fail the save you are sickened for 1d4 rounds. You can roll it.[/sblock]

[sblock=Neutral Characters]You take 13 damage and can make a DC 19 will save for half.[/sblock]
