[LPF] Distant Relations

[jkason]

[sblock=Qik]You forgot your attack bonus for attacking a sighted opponent. Which, in a nice payback from your ACP Acrobatics snafu, is the only reason your attack hits. [/sblock]

Even as the combatants in the worship hall prepare to continue their battle, now with new opponents, the priest engaged in combat with the elemental cries out in pain, an oversized arrow skewering through his flank. The arrow shrinks almost immediately, but the pain the priest clearly feels does not.

[sblock=Yoshiki and Elenka]From your position, you can see another masked figure in gray robes now standing out in the courtyard holding a bow.[/sblock]

GM: And thus we end the sblock nightmare, though everyone's still wearing masks, so you're back to guessing who's who if you haven't been in on the fun yet / heard your companions speak.

 

[Artur Hawkwing]

OOC: Or don't happen to speak Sylvan.

Audra fells the Acolyte and turns toward the door at Elenka's call to secure it. She spots the priest advancing on her. As he attempts to skewer her she makes a good bend of her body at the waist, sending the exploring blade harmlessly past her. As he recoils from his failed thrust, she, as she seems to do habitually, counterattacks with all her might.

Audra's first swing finds its mark, a solid right hand to the side of the head, in a vulnerable spot. Her second swing is thwarted as the shield comes up, Audra turning so her forearm slams into the shield and not her fist. She steps back and tries a round kick, but her foot on the ground steps on the flat of the short sword from the fallen acolyte, throwing her off balance and sending her staggering backward a step or two, thwarting her kick

Yoshiki Akita (Human Monk 4)

Before Yo has a chance to respond to Elenka, the black robed man's appearance changes his answer. He quickly says in Sylvan as he continues to fight the fiery dog, "Either dead, hiding, or escaped. I'll hold him off, you two get out of here." He keeps his attention on Garthia.

OOC: Or don't happen to speak Sylvan.

GM: While she was new to the group, I think Audra was with them long enough to be able to recognize Yoshiki's voice, so she knows who's who in terms of allies in the worship hall. She has no idea what Yoshiki's been saying, mind, but she knows he isn't an enemy.

 

[GlassEye]

In order to clear a path to make their getaway Elenka dashes down the short bit of stairs to aid Audra and her sorely wounded elemental.

"Owbej be praised; it's time to leave."

Sarcasm, at least for the first part, is heavy as Elenka speaks. She leads with her terbutje, intending to bring it down on the priest in front of her. She does but the unintended strike does only a minor amount of damage.

The priest fighting the elemental gives one more skillful thrust, and the creature crumbles into a pile of fine rubble.

"Need some help there, buddy?" he says to his companion who is beseiged by two attackers. His movements quick and wary, he makes his way around Elenka, opening himself to attack, though the summoner finds he seems ready for it.

GM: Elenka can take an AoO, though it's vs. AC 21 (-2 dex for failed Acrobatics attempt, +4 dodge for Mobility feat)

"Much obliged," returns the other priest. With his companion's distraction, his rapier slides visciously home in Elenka's side. He tries to smack her across the face with his shield, as well, but her heightened speed gives her the advantage, and she steers clear of the second attack.

The hound decides its had enough of trying to bite swift, wily opponents, and as its unsummoned packmate before it tried, it unleases a cone of flame at the monk.

GM: Reflex save DC 14 Yoshiki

"Now there's an idea," Garthia says with malice, moving in behind his beast. He holds out his hands, rattling off an invocation in gutteral language, and a larger gout of flame bursts from them. The hound is caught in this second fire, but seems unfazed.

GM: And another reflex save DC 14 for Yoshiki

[sblock=Spellcraft DC16]Garthia just cast Burning Hands[/sblock]

[Qik]

Even as he hears the whoosh of flames, Quioan lets loose another pair of arrows at the nearest of the two swordsmen, smiling as both find their mark. Still, he grunts his frustration when the man falters but doesn't fall.

[sblock=Actions/OOC]Attack Priest 3 with Rapid Shot (two at +6).

Result: Priest 3 at 1/25 HP.

Also, just to be clear, the steps are facing the direction Quioan is, yes? I.e. he can see Garthia/Yoshiki/etc? Would the only penalty he would incur for firing in there soft cover if someone is in the way? Finally, would Elenka/etc count as being in the way, since the stairs are raised?[/sblock][sblock=Stats]Quioan Scorchsong HP: 19/24

The steps are in Quioan's direction. However, the doorway opening is roughly 7 feet tall, while the stairs go up to the second floor 15' above. Because of that, Anyone halfway up the stairs or further in the worship hall has total cover from Quioan where he stands (so that includes the hound and Garthia). He can't really see much of anything past halfway up those stairs for the same reason.[/sblock]

 

[GlassEye]

Elenka winces visibly in pain as the gray robe's rapier pierces her skin and muscle. They need to leave, to lick their wounds and report to Inar asap... As the priest slips past and leaves himself open to Elenka she takes advantage and chops viciously at him. Despite his skill Elenka's luck proves stronger and the jagged blade tears into his robe and flesh.

"We can do this all day, scum."

Stepping around with the hope to clear a path for herself and Audra, Elenka uses her momentum to bring the terbutje back in line. The heavy blade whirrs around and cut deep into the priest neck and shoulder finishing the job that Quioan started.

Audra watches Elenka's blade nearly slice the Priest before her in half. She turns and does a quick hop over the bench next to and strikes out at the Priest who still has the Summoner in his sights, her right hand striking out for a specific spot, finding it's mark with a satisfying thunk. The following strike seems to hit armor, but might have actually gotten through. The follow up kick, however misses.
