Kulan: Knightfall's Heroes of Carnell Game [OOC]

[Knightfall]

Huge Scorpion - Initiative: 1D20 = [6] = 6

 

[Knightfall]

The scorpion is on the roof, which is 10 feet high. It has a ten foot reach, so it can hit Litrix at this point but no one else. It will climb down and attack on its turn.

 

[Knightfall]

Round One
Angus: 14 (readied action)
Maur: 12 (moves/readies charge)
Phar: 12 (casts magic missile)
Caerth: 7 (scares away the scorpion with Intimidate)
Litrix: 7 (5ft. step/readies action)
Aureus: 6
Quinn: 6 (delays: 5ft. step, attacks; hit)
Huge Scorpion: 6

 

[JustinCase]

Maybe it’s friendly! Or at least Caerth wants to try that.

On his turn. Which is not first. Or second. Maybe third…

Initiative Caerth: 1D20+3 = [4]+3 = 7

 

[Knightfall]

Okay, so you all beat the scorpion's initiative. I have a feeling this is going to be a short combat. Quinn is first. I will see if @ScottDeWar_jr has time to roll attacks for Quinn or if he needs me to do it. His life is a bit... difficult, right now.

 

[MetaVoid]

But it will attack Litrix in a surprise round, right?

 

[Knightfall]

But it will attack Litrix in a surprise round, right?

No.

 

[MetaVoid]

I thought I'll need to disengage, to draw it away, as-is, can I simply ready an action to attack it once it comes within reach?

 

[Knightfall]

I thought I'll need to disengage, to draw it away, as-is, can I simply ready an action to attack it once it comes within reach?

Yes. It will only threaten Litrix on its turn.

 

[MetaVoid]

I'll post in the morning, going to sleep now, Litrix moves back and readies an action - far enough to have multiple characters threatening it when it comes down, but not so far that Maur becomes closest to it

 

[Knightfall]

Quinn will delay his attack until the monstrous scorpion climbs down from the roof. He will take a step back, switch to his spiked chain, and attack once.
Quinn - +1 spiked chain attack: 1D20+17 = [11]+17 = 28 (hit)
2D4+9 = [3, 4]+9 = 16

 

[Knightfall]

I'll post in the morning, going to sleep now, Litrix moves back and readies an action - far enough to have multiple characters threatening it when it comes down, but not so far that Maur becomes closest to it

So, 10 feet back?

 

[Knightfall]

@Neurotic:
Since Angus has a readied action, that means Maur is up next.

 

[Knightfall]

@JustinCase,
I'm going to post an action for Phar, and then it will be Caerth's turn.

 

[Knightfall]

Aureus will take a 5 ft. step back on her turn and fire her bow, depending on whether or not Caerth manages to pacify the vermin creature. Remember, this is not an animal. It does not have an Int. score.

EDIT: Handle Animal (and Wild Empathy) are supposed to only work on non-animals (such as magical beasts) if they have an Int score of 1 or 2. Plus the DC increases by 5 for Handle Animal (Wild Empathy is at -4).

For a vermin, trying to use Handle Animal is an epic ability that requires DCs of 35 to rear a vermin or 50 to train one. I don't think there is an option for using Wild Empathy against one without some sort of special ability. I'll doublecheck the RC.

 

[Neurotic]

@Knightfall I'm looking at the map now, Maur does NOT move, I'm sorry for the confusion, I will delete that part in IC

 

[Knightfall]

@JustinCase, making sure you know you're up for Caerth.

 

[Knightfall]

I do have physio today, so no rush.

 

[Knightfall]

That's the end of that combat. The scorpion will remain Intimidated for 1d6 X 10 minutes.

 

[Knightfall]

@JustinCase, do you want Caerth to scout out the ruin from the air in dire owl form?
