mleibrock's in-game thread for Council of Thieves

[Maidhc O Casain]

Liath stands her ground. As the others make their way past her she whispers to each, "Be going, I be following to keep these cautious."

Her longbow creaks as she draws once more to the cheek and sends an arrow whistling down the dark hall. Her shot is answered by a grunt of pain as she scores a solid hit on the lone standing foe.

[sblock=Actions]Liath will get off another shot as her companions move by - she'll cover the backtrail and pepper anyone who gets too close. In the meantime, she fires off another shot.

Longbow Attack (1d20+4=20) for Damage (1d8=3).[/sblock]

Trevor will continue to stay as close to the mass movement as possible

 

[mleibrock]

The group, save Trevor, moves west across the sewage stream intent on moving north up the far hallway and away from the group of hellknights.

Hellknight #2 , draws some steel and begins moving around his companions, intent to not allow you to escape. He successfully moves in front of the other 2 men but it takes his entire turn to do so.

Trevor is up. -

OOC: Todd, keep in mind, if Trevor wants to cross the sewage stream He will need to make another dex check - keep in mind he is already at -2 for traipsing through the stream once where Anundr kicked the planks out of the way.

Trevor will do his best to keep up with the party..

 

[mleibrock]

Hellknight fight

Trevor tries his best to jump the small stream but having the bottoms of his feet already covered in slippery sludge, his off balance landing again puts a foot in the nastiness. He does manage to get across though and is soon alongside the other members of the party.

Hellknight #1 stands and fires a crossbow bolt at Trevor just after he lands on the far side of the water. The bolt hits true and slips right under his arm and deals a mighty 13 points of damage. Trevor slumps to the ground.

Round is over Anundr is up.

[Rhun]

Anundr leads the way out of the chamber, hustling up the northwestern passageway indicated by Suzume, his greatsword held ready.

OOC: Double move, up past B1 on the map.

 

[mleibrock]

Janiven

"Morosino! Give Trevor one of my healing potions at my side." The attractive woman's hip juts out slightly indicating where the potion is. Given different circumstances, most of the party would take notice of the woman's attractive shape but the hellknights falling a party member has everyone clearly focused.

As Morosino begins fumbling for the potion, Janiven lets loose an arrow at the foremost hellknight who has drawn steel but just misses. - *Edit* Forgot the guidance spell so it is a hit

Morosino finds the potion and quickly pours it into Trevor's lifeless mouth. Soon he is again conscious.

"Hurry! All of you follow Anundr! I will stay and cover until you are all safely up the hall."

Hellknight#3 stands up and fires a cossbow bolt at Janiven who is now in their sights. The bolt lands firmly in the breast and the surprise and pain are easily seen and heard on her face and in her scream.

Tiko and Liath are up

[Maidhc O Casain]

Liath draws to the cheek and fires off a shot, sending an arrow caroming off into the darkness somewhere behind the approaching Hellknight.

"You being to go, Janiven," she says calmly. "Leading us out, you. Morosino, you being to give the potion as I being to cover. Janiven, having another potion you? For yourself."
