[LPF] Buyer's Remorse

[Maidhc O Casain]

Brân makes a valiant effort to prove the old man is correct in his assessment of the party's chances against the Golden Hound as he moves up to help Thaddeus with the ruffian. He swings his falchion and bites at the fellow at the same time, and almost manages to lop off part of his bill!

[sblock=Actions/Rolls]Move to C10, attack Thug 01, miss.
To Hit: Falchion (1d20+0=5), To Hit: Bite (1d20-5=4)[/sblock]

The lean fellow races forward blade in either hand and attempts to stab at Iosef's kidney! The blade slides through the Paladin's armor and sends warm blood trickling down his side!

"Hey there pal, they call me Jonesey Skinner, if you impress me I'll make a purse out of your skin you see. Not because I'm a weirdo, but because it does one good to maintain a creepy as reputation in my line." The rogue breathes into Iosef's ear. And a careful observer cna indeed spy a series of purses and pouches crudely stitched out of a pale leather, some have artful touches like ears used for flaps, or noses as decor.

OOC: Iosef takes 6 damage! Borric is up!

Borric decides to go after the man with the money, by-passing the thug in front of him. He draws a chakrum and whirls the bladed disc at the old man.

"Let's see if this gives you a shave, old man."

He draws a shortspear from its holder.

[sblock=Actions]Free Action: Draw Chakrum
Move Action: Move to F-13
Standard Action: Ranged Attack At Bareen; Chakrum (1d20+3=20, 1d8+3=6)
Free Action: Draw Shortspear

OOC: Last post for 36 hours for me as I fly back home. If he is still standing when his next turn comes around, I should be able to at least provide guidance for Borric's next turn once I land from my phone if I cannot roll dice at that time.[/sblock]___________________________

The bladed disk slashes across Bareen's cheek, sending blood spraying forth but appearing to cause no harm to the ancient mage - there is not even a cut left though blood was efinitely spilt.... The old man tuts and chants briefly whirling his hand in a lazy circle in front of himself, this has no discernible effect. To do this he is forced to release the boy, who sinks to he floor wide eyed.

Exchanging glances the two thugs to your right step together and both stab at the burly Thaddeius while the last cautiously approaches and stabs at Iosef - earning an irritated glower from Skinner. But none of their short swords manages to hit home.

OOC: Iosef is up! Followed by Thaddeius.

[sblock=Spellcraft DC 16]He casts shield, which will act as a shield (+4 AC) and renders Magic Missiles useless against Bareen.[/sblock]

[sblock=Spellcraft DC 22]He probably has False Life or some source of temporary hit points in play - hence the blood, but lack of wound.[/sblock]

Syl watched the old man closely, as he worked his arcane magic.

OOC: Use the first roll DM.

 

[rb780nm]

"Have you no honor? Attack from the front like a man, varlet!" Iosef turns to face Skinner, wielding his (steel) longsword.

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

"Why should I, don't seem te be workin' very well fer you now does it?" Skinner quips, as he deftly dodges Iosef's blade.

OOC: Thaddeus is up! Followed by Sylvain.

 

[Ace Cipher Zero]

Thaddeus saw the two thugs come at him, but easily dodged aside both attacks. He had Bran next to him, so his normal tactic of getting around their flank would have to wait. If the thugs fell though, he still would clear a path to the old man. He took another mighty swing.

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

Thaddeus's blade lands, but is deflected by a couple of metal studs to slam into the earth - much to the thug's relief!

OOC: Sylvain is up! Followed by Brân.

 

[Gerald007]

Seeing his friends being mauled by the thugs, Syl looks for an opening that he might get a shot in with his crossbow. Seeing an opening, he fires at the thug involved with Thaddeus. (Thug 2).
