Chongo grunts angrily as the spider-fiend drags him into its loathsome embrace. The adrenaline of the battle had vanished, leaving behind a exhaustion that numbed his mind. As the others stabbed at the creature, he struggled against it, trying to keep it occupied so the others could kill it.

[sblock=OOC]What the heck, I'll go for a grapple check to pin him. Hopefully the others will kill it before he eats me. :)[/sblock]
 

COMBAT ROUND 9

Gulping for air, Keoni steels his resolves and circles around the foul beast, his shield held before him as his spear seeks out an opening. He tries to calm his fear as he treads across the wooden floor, his eyes locked upon the beast that has already dealt terrible damage to his allies.
Keoni thrusts tentatively with his spear as he seeks to protect himself, but the tip is turned aside by the beast's chitinous exterior.
"Strike it down!"
Keoni attacks Rhagodessa with spear (defensively) (1d20-3=4) MISS!
------------------------------------------
"Right, wytchwood arrows gifted by the pixie queen Eilaya should do the trick."
Kalen draws his bow and fires an arrow at the large spider.
Unfortunately, as Kalen takes care to avoid hitting Keoni, his aim is off and the arrow misses its target.
Kalen fires an arrow at the Rhagodessa. (1d20+3-4(into melee)=10) MISS!
-------------------------------------------
The older man, Col, curses several times upon seeing the battle ebb and flow the way it was. Spitting at the floor, his bats at the vermin with his long spear, more as a distraction than as a serious means to his. "Chongo, you gotta be crazy goin' toe'ta'toe w'dat thing!"
Unfortunately, the beast appears focused on attacking its nearest prey, and is unfazed by the mad scholar's longspear.
(Col uses Aid Another to help Chongo's attack.)
Aid Another to help Chongo's attack. (1d20+0=9) FAILED

--------------------------------------------
Anar grimaces as he sees Keoni move into the position he had hoped to use to flank the creature. Thinking quickly, he instead moves up to stand next to his companion, and tries to stab the beast, all the while keeping on his guard for the creature's attacks.
Alas, the young rogue's rapier fails to connect with a vital spot.
Anar attacks Rhagodessa with Rapier (defensively)(1d20-2=8) MISS
----------------------------------------------
The Rhagodessa turns now to the dark-skinned warrior who has wounded it so badly. Its menacing pedipalps lash out with blinding speed, and both latch ahold of the barbarian's skin with their horrible suckers. Chongo cannot stop himself from being drawn close to the horrible vermin, but somehow, he manages to twist and squirm enough that the thing's mandibles cannot close on him. They open and close with a loud clacking near his head, as the creature chitters in frustration.
Rhagodessa attacks Chongo with Pedipalps. (1d20+7=17, 1d20+7=18) BOTH HIT
Rhagodessa grapple check vs. Chongo (1d20+11=27)
Chongo grapple check vs. Rhagodessa (1d20+4=19)
Rhagodessa wins grapple check, gets free bite attack.
Rhagodessa bites grappled Chongo (1d20+9=11) MISS!

------------------------------------------------
Chongo grunts angrily as the spider-fiend drags him into its loathsome embrace. The adrenaline of the battle had vanished, leaving behind a exhaustion that numbed his mind. As the others stabbed at the creature, he struggled against it, trying to keep it occupied so the others could kill it.
Chongo twists around (despite the hooked pedipalp that digs painfully into his shoulder), trying to grab ahold of the dangerous beast, and hold it still; but its flailing legs and clacking mandibles prevent him from getting a firm grip.
Chongo grapple check vs. Rhagodessa - pin attempt. (1d20+3=7)
Rhagodessa opposed grapple check vs. Chongo. (1d20+11=21) RHAGODESSA WINS, NO PIN

-------------------------------------------------
Anar continues to feel stronger, while the unconscious Damash and Nicolai also reap the benefits of Keoni's healing aura.
(+1 hp to each)

The old man screams in rage, and doubles his effort to harry the insectile beast. This time he tries to assist Anar's blows, hoping to provide enough assistance to force the creature to drop his friend.

OOC: Aid another again, this time for Anar; that should help offset his attacking defensively. Is is possible for Anar to tumble around to flank?

OOC: Since the rhagodessa is grappling Chongo, it can't make AOO's....no tumbling necessary. :)

True enough. If it has only one attack, Anar wouldn't need to fight defensively either. Or, Col could try to boost Anar's AC instead, letting him attack w/o the -4. Rhun's call.
 

"Kill it! Stab the beast!" Chongo manages to grunt as he tries to keep its attention firmly planted on him. He wrestles with it, trying to keep its mandles off of him.

[sblock=OOC]I'll continue to contest the grapple. Since it's not taking the -10 on the grapple to not use its entire body, this would be a fabulous time for everyone to just keep stabbing it until it dies. :)[/sblock]
 

Kalen will move next to the Rhagodessa and speaking in Sylvan tell it what a naughty beastie it is being and how it should be ashamed of itself for grabbing Chongo.

ooc aid another to give a +2 to hit.
 

Anar tries to move into a position to flank the beast with one of his companions, and tries to slip his rapier into a weak spot in its hide. With Chongo grappling the beast, the rogue gives up his defensive stance, and focuses on slaying the creature.



OOC: AC16, Attack +2 (1d6+2/18-20), sneak attack +1d6 if possible
