[Lakelands] Six For Adventure

[Ulorian - Agent of Chaos]

Horsom, distracted first by the arrival of Fellan, then by Kregor's bizarre actions, let the Hisser scrabble by him. "Fellan!" he cried, alarmed. "That creature.. kill it!" He quickly slipped his bow into its holster(?) and attempted to follow the beast out of the hole. As one of Long Archer's chief protectors, Fellan was reknowned for his skill with the blade, but even so, Horsom wasn't sure that he could handle the Hisser alone, even weakened as it was. "Dain!" he shouted to the dwarf as he disappeared down the tunnel. "I'm going after it!"

Cool!

OOC: No worries on the change of action. Question though, shouldn't we get AoO against this thing?

Its only action this round was a move, so it doesn't provoke an attack of opportunity from either Kregor or Dain. Horsom and Selanil are wielding bows and Glom is casting spells, so it doesn't provoke one from them either, regardless of whether it ran right past them.

OOC:
I thought that when a person moved into, out of, or through a threatened space, they provoked an AoO regardless of the rest of their actions. (Except for a 5' step)

Check the definition of a threatened space.

You don't provoke by moving into a threatened space (only out of or within). Otherwise, every time you moved in to attack someone, they'd AoO you! Also, if you only move during a round, you don't provoke AoO when leaving the square from which you started.

Selanil watches the abomination exit the chamber by the hole in the roof, disbelief on his face. The thing was un-killable, maybe even invincible. He quickly slings his bow over his shoulder and then moves to retrieve the spear he had leaned against a wall earlier. He then readies himself to follow his companions out of the chamber in pursuit of the creature.

Kregor watched in disbelief as the beast pulled itself into the chamber, then scuttled up the walls to the ceiling. He gritted his teeth, about to swing at the monster, when suddenly he gave an angry shout and pelted down the corridor the monster had come from.

His disbelief served him well. The escaping creature was an illusion, meant to distract them as the injured thing pulled itself down the corridor to safety. It was clear to Kregor now that the thing was greatly wounded indeed!

 

[Ulorian - Agent of Chaos]

OOC: Doh!

 

[maddmic]

As he followed after the monster, he called out to the others. "We have it! Come on, the beast is retreating to it's lair!"

Kregor will continue to follow the thing until it stops, but he will not be overzealous in his pursuit.

OOC:
How fast is the thing moving? If he thinks he can, without losing the beasts trail, he will make a normal move and then cast another Cure Lite on himself.
