mleibrock's in-game thread for Council of Thieves

[mleibrock]

"Leave them for the HellKnights!" Suzume attempts to get everyone moving and leave the vicious looking, but ineffectual Goblins behind. He does take a defensive stance as he passes.

Sewer Goblin #1 tries to get at Liath but the other one is still in the way and can't get a swing at the Fetchling around him.

Liath and Tiko are up.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Liath stoops quickly and scoops up her bow from the floor, careful to keep her rapier between herself and the threatening goblin. As she straightens, she extends into a lunge. "Am with you . . . bow is withing me now."

[sblock=Actions]

• Move: Retrieve Bow
• Standard: Attack (1d20+3=13) for (maybe) Damage (1d6+2=8)

[Lou]

As Tiko passes by, she drops two silver coins on the path, hissing in orcish as she passes and repeating in abyssal as she moves away, "Money for you. Slow down the big metal men."

 

[mleibrock]

[sblock=OOC]Intersting play Lou. Unexpected but thought-provoking for me. I have to change your action a bit, as Liath is preventing those behind her from moving forward. [/sblock]

Liath stoops quickly and scoops up her bow from the floor, careful to keep her rapier between herself and the threatening goblin. As she straightens, she extends into a lunge. Unfortunately, she misjudges the distance to the small goblin and her lunge is just a bit shy. "Am with you . . . bow is withing me now."

As Tiko watches Liath fail to injury the slippery little creatures, she throws two silver coins into the room, hissing in orcish and repeating in abyssal, "Money for you. Slow down the big metal men." Though the fierce looking creatures do not seem to understand Tiko's words, their eyes follow the glint on the floor.

Janiven looks back and sees space after Anundr and employs the others to move forward to follow Anundr and herself. "Come along, we have no time for skirmishes, those blasted Hellknights are right on our tail."

Dru is up.

[mleibrock]

[sblock=OOC] I wanted to remind everyone of the adjustment to moving through a player. - See post #362 and 365. I'm going to be technical with this. The hallway is 5ft wide however most have 1 ft taken up by the sewage stream so trying to get around another player in a 4ft hallway is going to require an entire action. This may be important if you are in close proximity to a bad guy as it will provoke an AOO. Also a dex check will be required to avoid putting a foot in the muck. If you prefer to move around quickly using the entire square and don't mind making a dex check, go for it. If you fail the dex check, by 5 or less your future dex checks will be at -2 for to turns for one foot going into the muck, if you fail by 10 or more, you will be at -4 for 2 turns for both feet going in the muck. Basically the bottoms of your feet are very slippery. [/sblock]

Dru says, "Forget it, I'll not die slipping in sewage, if I am to die, 'twill be with a blade in my hand and a foe to my fore!" Drew stops, turns and awaits the Hellknights for battle. Maybe he can buy enough time for the others to escape.
