Metropolis IC: Into the Darkness

[Jemal]

OOC: Sulli, Rogues get a little p.o'd when people misspell their class.. Just call'em thieves, that's all they are anyways.

IC:
Jemal sighs and stands near the pit, Assesing the situation to decide which spell to cast.
( Assuming those are the only two hobgoblins, then 2 magic missiles each, and the 5th to whichever appears less damaged... if one or both are dead, or there are more than 2, I'll instead cast Polymorph self (No change initially though).

 

[Timothy]

Sqill'Mar will jump the pit and join the melee. I'll attack the one where Rover is as well, if that one is still standing. Or I'll give a more accurate describtion after rover and Sulli (cloude, right?) have posted.

 

[Sulli]

cloude take the blows with a smile backing up one step, stands sreight and charges back into the battle.

attacking hobgoblin on the left side.

 

[Leopold]

OOC: Knock bow and arrow and shoot at hobgoblins if possible. Firing into melee, such is life. If i hit one of my companions the first time then i sling, jump pit and engage in melee..

 

[Corlon]

Jemal, you have no idea what's happening, you don't know there are hobgoblins, all you know is that two ropes with metal balls smashed into the big guy.

Still waiting for rover, if he doesn't respond in a while then I'll just say he tactically enters melee.

 

[ivanhoe]

Rover will delay his action and wait for squill'mar to attack one before joining in attacking his victim by flanking, unless its a surprise round for us anyway in which case i will attack one and get sneak attack anyway.

 

[Timothy]

Okay then, knowing this, this will be my action:

Sqill'Mar will jump over the pit and attack the right gobling, trying to position himselfso that Rover can easily jump in so that both of the are flanking. Sqill'Mar will wait for Rover to join him before making his devastating attack. I fwe have the surprise round, Rover is allready up ther and I'll flank him, if it isn't possible for me to position myself for a flank attack without getting an AoO, I'll let Rover do the maneuvering and attack when he is in position. If rover doesn't come into position this round, I'll strike anyway. Needless to say I'll wait untill my brother has fired his arrow, because I know his trcks.

 

[Corlon]

charging into the darkness, how stupid is that?

Cloude charges into the darkness, where he smells hobgoblins around, (standard action to pinpoint them), and as he lumbers forward the ropes lash out again and... deal 15 damage to the lumbering giant. Cloude's greatsword flies into a table and smashes it in half.
Iq'il's arrows fly through the air, one just nicking the hobgobin, but the other hitting him strait in the chest.
Squill'mar will launch himself at the hobgoblin that was just hit by his brother's arrows, but the hobgoblins wield their strange weapons very quickly, and both of them shoot towards Squill'mar. One of them misses but the other hits squill'mar in the gut (10 damage). Squill'mar still manages to get an attack against the one that Iq'il injured, slashing him across the torso with his bladed gauntlet, and the creature lets out a scream of pain.
Rover also charges into the darkness, his excellent reflexes and accuracy with the rapier do nothign for him in this darkness, but the hobgoblins still swing their weapons at him. One of them clangs harmlessly off the ground, but the other makes a square shot in Rover's arm (8 damage).
The hobgoblins swing their metal spheres at squill'mar, and one manages to hit him (8 damage).
Jemal mutters some words and waves his free hand around, but nothing seems to happen (except that he knows that polymorph self has been cast)


ooDM: get in there with your torch Jemal!!

 

[Jemal]

*The torch has a 20' light radius, meaning it should shine 10' into the room since I'm standing at the edge of the pit. And if that doesn't illuminate any of them, then that would automatically activate my polymorph action*

 

[Corlon]

jemal here's the map

5 spaces=5 ft.
| = wall
[]=pit
```=door, so your torch goes 5 ft. inside
J=Jemal
x=normal ground

|x ```x|
|[][][][]|
|[][][][]|
|xxJxxx|
|xxxxxx|

That is pretty much what it looks like, not perfect, but...

Second round, what are your actions?
