Of Jungle Deeps and Ocean Depths

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Jalaro nods.*

"I'll keep the anklies clear of him. Do what you can, but I agree with Rappai, drive him off, it's going to be very hard to kill him."

*The rest of the party heads toward the noise, Mourn and Rappai flying above. It takes a couple minutes for the party to get close to the edge of the clearing where Killhaven stands, growling at the five remaining dwarves. There's a pool of blood and... pieces near the towering creature.*

*As the party draws close, Killhaven roar loudly, shaking the air like thunder, burning it with his rage. Tiana, Undinar, and Invelion feel a deep, primal fear twist their guts at the thundar-lizard's roar.*

[OOC - Tiana, Undinar, and Invelion are all shaken taking a -2 penalty to attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws.]

 

[Jarval]

Mourn climbs and banks around, readying himself for the attack. He calls out words of frost and ice which start to crystallize in the air ahead of him, then with one final shouted phrase the particles of ice grow, splinter and shoot forwards towards Killhaven.


(OoC: Casting Cone of Cold. Mourn's made sure to position himself so he's both (vertically) out of reach of Killhaven, and won't catch the dwarves in the spell's AoE.)

 

[Zerth]

Uh-huh. I wonder if this was a good idea after all.

*Tiana takes cover behind a tree and begins to fire at Killhaven with her shortbow.*

(OOC: +16/+13 to hit, shaken effect included. Range increment 70 ft. Damage 1d6+1.)

Edit: Rappai's spell also added to attack modifiers.

 

[Keia]

Rappai, Grippli Cleric/Divine Oracle (Jarrijan, Grippli Monk)

Rappai flew closer hoping to catch as many allies and Killhaven in her area of effect and invoked Recitation (DotF).*

"May the blessings of Is-aycha guide your hands and protect your hearts," Rappai invoked.


*: 60 ft range, 60 ft radius burst, 10 round duration. +2 Luck bonus on attacks and saves, -2 to enemies (+3 for worshippers of Is-aycha).

 

[Erekose13]

Undinar draws and fires his bow from behind cover. He will remain there beside Tiana and the others while the aerial bombardment continues.

Longbow +12/+7 ranged [1d8 + 4 damage, x3, 110', P]

 

[Lichtenhart]

*Harry shouts over Rappai's liquid prayer: "Way to go, Mourn! Freeze this scurvy bastard's sorry undertail! Arrr, at my call, drive him this way, mateys!"*
*He gets out his rope, and ties and end of it to the the strongest trunk he can find, and looks around for another one, hoping that the beast will be dumb enough to trip on it, and that the rope will be strong enough not to snap under its weight.*
"C'mere, Lady Luck, it's your Harry. Gimme a little help, would you?"

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

*Jarrijan waits just a moment for Rappai to invoke her blessings before rushing into combat. Mourn flies high above the massive dinosaur before unleashing the fury of winter upon the jungle beast. Surprised by such a strange aerial assault, Killhaven takes the full force of the blast.*

*Mad Harry was about to create a trip-line for Killhaven, but suddenly realizes that for a creature nearly as tall as the treetops, the rope would be less than a thread to him. Instead he takes out his hand crossbow, sights and fires near Killhaven's eye, striking him in the face.*

*Rappai invokes her blessings, filling everyone with renewed vigor, while seeming to impede Killhaven. His signal given, Jarrijan leaps into the fray, sticking to the leg of the massive creature and beginning to pummel him unmercifully.*

*Tiana fires one shot into the dinosaur's chest, but the next one bounces off his pebbly hide. Invellion gives a great shout and hurls something at Killhaven. Just barely above Jarrijan, a ball of fire erupts, scorching the dinosaur badly. The dwarves seem to take heart from the sudden arrival of the party, and throw four more spears into Killhaven. He gives a roar and swings his head around, as if trying to decide who do go after first. With a howl unlike any anyone's every heard, Killhaven charges through the trees swinging his head to look for a target. He seems to decide Invellion looks like his worst enemy and snaps his jaws on the mage, lifting him up into the air, clamped in a viscious, vise-like grip.*

*Undinar skips back a pace and lets two arrows fly deep into Killhaven's side, blood starting to trickle down. Killhaven is starting to look rather bad, as the fight is beginning to take its toll.*

[OOC - Initiative
Jarrijan - 25
Mourn - 19
Mad Harry - 17 (higher Dex)
Rappai - 17
Tiana - 15
Invellion - 13
Killhaven, dwarves - 10
Undinar - 5

Killhaven fails his Reflex save witha 20 and takes 36 points of cold damage. Mad Harry makes his Intelligence check and hits a 26 for 24 point of sneak attack damage. Jarrijan hits a 31 for 10 points of damage. Tiana hits 26 for 4 points of damage. Invellion does a fireball for 37 points of damage (failed Reflex save). Invellion gets hit with a 28 for 28 points of damage and is now grappled in Killhaven's jaws. Undinar hits twice for 21 points of damage.]

 

[Jarval]

Taking advantage of Killhaven's massive size, Mourn banks around again and drops a fireball beside the tyrannosaurus, placed carefully to keep his companions and the dwarves out of the blast.


(OoC: If this isn't possible due to the placement of the people on the ground, Mourn will instead cast Melf's Acid Arrow on Killhaven.)

 

[Zerth]

"Let him go you over-grown lizard!" Tiana yells at Killhaven and drops the shortbow and wields her whip dagger. She also activates the boots of haste.

(OOC: Drop shortbow [free], wield whip dagger [move], activate boots [standard]. AC 28 [base 19, +1 dodge feat, +4 Mage Armor, +4 Haste], HP 87/87.)

 

[silentspace]

Invelion Sun Elf Wizard 5/Harper Mage 3/Mage Killer 2

Invelion howls in pain as the T Rex's jaws bite deeply into him, his life flashing before his eyes.

Why did I not stay back, and fly above out of the beast's range like Mourn did? Out of such simple decisions is a person's fate decided.

Invelion focuses his concentration and attempts to Dimension Door straight up 800 feet.

[Depending upon the results of Invelion's morning casting of Endurance: hp 33/61 or 43/71. Concentration DC 24 to cast Dimension Door. Concentration +16 or +17.]
