[LPF] The Lady of Lake Laguna

[deisenhut]

OOC: With the bird going before Yo in the init order, I'm stating my action before I know what it is doing or whether it hits or not.

Pain flows through him as pesky bird tears into his arm with its sharp beak. Determined to kill this thing before it gets the best of him, fire begins to light up in his eyes and flames appear in his hand. He thrusts his hand forcefully forward at the bird and then follows up with a secondary strike.

OOC: Flurry of Blows, first strike with Elemental Fist (Fire). On hit, deals additional 1d6 fire damage.

Finished Editing

OOC: I hope I am not offending anyone, but it's been two days and I will be on a plane tomorrow night, so I want to move the fight sequence up so we don't fall behind and we finish this adventure by the time I deploy. Rolling for everyone except Yoshiki.

IC: Mortar attacked again, dropping his bow, pulling out Foe Breaker, and swinging. Mortar's blow struck the animal with such force that the corpse could not be found, only a brief puff of feathers, and later, small bits of what must have been eagle. (Eagle 2 dead)

Yoshiki's opponent flew upwards, then wheeled a turn back into melee. But it could not strike the swift monk, who swatted the ferocious attacks before preparing his counter. Yo's counter smacked the bird across the beak, nearly killing it.

With Mortar's opponent destroyed in a cloud of feathers, Krag moved to help Elros, slicing the wing off the unsuspecting bird and watching it flop onto the ground in its death throes. (Eagle 5 dead)

Kanli tried to repeat the fortunes of his comrades, but missed badly. However, Elros split the distracted bird on the end of his sword tip, removing the threat to Kanli. (Eagle 6 dead)

Next Round

The lone eagle was badly wounded, but still trying to fight in a suicidal manner. That was quickly ended, however, by Mortar and Foe Breaker. (Last eagle dead. No need to roll for damage)

OOC: Six dead eagles later and the party has a total of 1200 XP for this encounter. 240 XP for each party member. This battle was the same CR as the last but played out much differently.
- Elros: 19/22 hps
- Yoshiki: 11/16 hps
- Mortar: 23/25 hps
- Kanli: 11/18 hps
- Krag: 12/12 hps

With the alter destroyed and the current batch of evil-eyed birds dispatched, Yoshiki says, "We should move on before more of them decide to become suicidal."

OOC: How early/late in the day is it? How long will it take to get to boretown (or whatever it was called)?

[sblock=OOC] Wow, my first crit and its GM rolled...[/sblock]

 

[Deuce Traveler]

OOC: It's a little after high noon. You should reach Boredton by the early evening if you wish to head there now.

 

[Caim]

Mortar looks to the sky after retrieving his bow and placing Foe Hammer in its holster. "We should move if we wish to make it to Boredton before nightfall." He pasues long enough to place his bow on his back. "No telling what we may find when the sun goes down."

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Kanli looks around. "Well, if you want to move on, I suppose we can..."

He stoops, reaches down, and picks up a dead eagle. "I guess I'm eating feathers, though." He concentrates and hums for a moment as extra blood wells up and pushes out of Kanli's wounds.

He then follows the party sullenly, crunching away at the eagle, doing his best to ignore the feathers.

 

[CootaR]

OOC: Sorry work has been chaotic been way busy

We go back to see the boys to sleeo? or to the crazy island of the lady?

That where she ams right?

 

[Deuce Traveler]

The majority of the party planned to continue walking to Boredton, while others were split on checking up with the boys or bypassing it all and heading to the island. All such destinations required heading in the same pathway, so the heroes left Hillby, then followed the lake as it bent from eastwards to southwards.

The party members were still discussing their options by late afternoon when the men walked into a 15 foot wide mushroom-ringed clearing in the midst of the heavily tree covered forest they had been hiking through. The peculiarity of that ring set the heroes on edge.

OOC: Everyone make a DC 15 Perception check.

Terrible Swift Sword, once I rolled that crit and looked up his stats, I realized what a monster of a PC you have.

IVV, you still have some dried boar meat.

Cootar, no worries.
