Island Empire, Part III, The Lich's Curse

Round 3

Finn 23
H'Roosh 23
Mig 16
Mingo 15
Gnurl 13
Radoon 12
Geoffrey 11
Scribe 10
Anson 7
Barghests 6
Balmal 4

Finn moves diagonally to put the smaller barghest between him and the giant. (Diagonal 5' move to square F4). He slashes (1d20 12=28)twice (1d20 7=11) at the fiend, only connecting once (Damage) (1d6 4=9).

H'Roosh steps up beside the window, achieving a flanking position against the flail wielding Barghest. As he moves he unleashes a round kick to the creatures thigh, connecting solidly but doing little damage due to it's native toughness.

Anson yells at Mig as the beast and rider move away, "Mig, up and defend." Mig jumps up, standing next to Anson and taking a defensive posture.

Mingo moves another 5 feet away from the beast and rider to avoid any AoO and heals herself slightly.

Gnurl thinks: "Finally! My plan seems to be working, for the moment, at least." This round, Gnurl will continue moving somewhat to avoid all the combatants in the room (moving to the exact middle of the H10/I10 dividing line), and will cast True Casting in preparation for his next spell.

Seeing his dagger barely penetrate the wolf rider's armor and remembering the last fight they were in where try as he might he could not damage the creature,Radoon will chose another target. # 6 is the closest so he will turn and launch a barrage of daggers. The first proves to be a great shot right into a chink in the armor under his arm. The second is also a hit very near his neck. The second volley are wide right with one being one of the worst throws of Radoon's life. The dagger catches a latch in the shutter which opens suddenly spilling Radoon out onto a balcony. (DC 12 Dex check of fall prone) The dagger bounces and clatters along the floor very nearly hitting Mingo and Gnurl, though only Gnurl realizes he came within in hairsbreadth of losing a toe as he remains unseen.

Geofrrey once again attacks and this time is able to put his foe down.

The scribe pulls a little set of pipes from his pocket and after a brief incantation blows a sharp note. The sound that comes from the instrument is much louder than could possibly be expected. A burst of sound that seems to center on the space behind Finn's foe rolls over The lesser Barghest as well as the great wolf and rider. While the damage seems to be slight it does draw the attention of the Goblinoid.

Anson makes a full attack on the foe in front of him, landing one long sword and one short sword blow. (which foe did he strike?)

The Barghests counter with Goblinoid taking down the book shelf and the scribe with his sword. The lad appears mortally wounded as he falls, his blood staining the heap of books. His other foes out of reach, he turns his mount back in the direction of Anson and Finn where the wolf once again bites Anson despite Mig's effort at defense (10 damage). Finn avoids taking a hit this round as does H'Roosh. Gnurl's former foe gives up the search and charges Mingo managing to bite (11). The archer manages to get an arrow into Balmal as he comes out from under the desk, a holy symbol held high shouting in Celestial. [sblock=spellcraft check of 14+]He casts Dismissal.[/sblock] With a final shout of 'Begone!' The bow wielding Barhest yelps like a puppy and vanishes into the outer planes. Balmal turns to his fallen scribe.

H'Roosh

Ignore me at your peril, beast! I'll show you the error of your ways though my fists still move with the speed of turtles!

H'Roosh again flings a fist at his foe, his knuckles impacting the small of the Barghest's back - where it's kidney's should be - as it turns to confront Geoffrey.

[sblock=Combat Rolls]To Hit: 1d20+14=31 (Once again I forgot the Flanking bonus on IC Roll)
Damage: 2d6+4=13[/sblock]

Gnurl Whiskerling hp76/76,AC23,ActvSpells:GtrMagArm,SeeInvis,GtrInvis

Having completed casting his True Casting spell last round, Gnurl now casts Lightning Bolt at Barghest #5 [Damage = 31] http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1617928/
Caster Level Check, if needed for spell resistance: 28
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1617958/

"Chew on that you Hellspawn! I'll teach you to pick on us Little People!" says Gnurl with all the venom in his voice that he can muster. As soon as the spell is completed, the still invisible Gnurl knows that he must move, or else they may pinpoint his position. Therefore, to keep them guessing, Gnurl moves to L9.

OOC: Anson was striking at foe#2, the one fighting Finn. Did it go down with 3 successsful attacks that round?

OOC: If you read post#461 too fast, you miss it:

"With a final shout of 'Begone!' The bow wielding Barhest yelps like a puppy and vanishes into the outer planes."

Note to self, try not to piss off Balmal....

OOC:

Just made it.

What happened to #6 bad guy?

Can I still throw through the window?

OOC: You may throw through the large window quite easily, there is no glass, just the shutters which are now open. As Lou said, foe 6 got sent back to his home plane via Balmal's spell.

[sblock=Gnurl]Never fear, the map reflects the situation at the end of round 3. When he moves in round 4, I'll update again. Just fyi, he couldn't move exactly where you said the previous round since Mingo got there first having a higher initiative.[/sblock]
