Of Sound Mind III

[Jarval]

Initiatives:
Gholog 22
Jason 19
Seraphina 16
Kerrick 9
New goblins 9

Jason throws a punch and kicks at the goblin. The punch is badly timed, but the kick smacks across the goblin's face (To Hit: 2 - 1 = 1, And again: 15 - 1 = 14, Damage 3 + 1 = 4). The goblin drag its hand under its nose, looking with anger at the blood Jason's caused to flow.

Seraphina throws herself up onto the ledge, and looses a bolt at the only goblin she has a clear shot at, the psionically talented one clinging to the rock above the cave entrance. The goblins shouts with in fear as the bolt clips the side of his head, cutting his scalp badly (To Hit: 18 + 3 = 21, Damage 5). The goblin calls out to its companions, and the two by the cave entrance each grab one of their fallen fellows, and start to drag the limp forms back into the cave. The psionic goblin calls one last command to the goblin fighting Jason, before he too scurries off back into the cave, moving quickly along the passage ceiling.

Janon's foe scowls at the order given to him, but backs away from the young monk, his blade now held in a defensive grip. He spits at Jason's feet, a look of utter disdain on his face.

Kerrick steps back from the cave, the air humming with power and the rocks at his feet are briefly coated with evaporating astral matter, as his wounds pull closed (heals 6 hit points).

Aiden grasps hold of the rope, but his armor weighs him down, and he is unable to gain any height as he struggles with the climb (Climb check: 12 - 9 = 3).


Sorry about the delay in this post I've been really busy with a college assignment.

Seraphina frowns, and reloads her crossbow. She then quickly looks around.

"Gholog's been dropped." She says quickly. "Someone should take care of him while Aiden gets up here."

Her gaze then turns to the cave. "You all stay here... I'm going to go have a look. If I get into trouble, you'll know it."

She then tries to recall the general appearance of goblins, as well as the typical garb of the goblins they just fought.

Quick question, Jarval: can you move while concentrating on a spell? Not concentrating as in casting, but if 'concentration' is the spell's duration.

And don't worry about the delay in posting. It happens to all of us.

Aiden grimaces in frustration, My companions are up there, getting hurt while I'm down here unable to help them. He tries to get up the rope again.

PHB, page 151
"Concentration: The spell lasts as long as you concentrate on it.
Concentrating to maintain a spell is a standard action that doesn’t
provoke attacks of opportunity. Anything that could break your
concentration when casting a spell can also break your
concentration while you’re maintaining one, causing the spell to
end (see Concentration, below). You can’t cast a spell while
concentrating on another one."

Thanks, but I already read that... and the section that it was pointing to. Neither said anything about movement breaking concentration, so I don't know if it breaks it or not... well, it specifies certain kinds of movement that break concentration, but not normal movement. I need to know if just walking around will break concentration.

Thanks for the effort, though.

Jason Master

(OOC)
It looks like you use a standard action to concentrate, which still leaves you with your movement action, so I’d say that you could move your base while concentrating,
(/OOC)

“I have no problem with staying right here,” Jason laughs as he painfully drops next to Gholog. He works to bind Gholog’s wounds as best he can, hoping to stabilize his fallen companion. He calls out to the cleric, “take all the time you need to climb that rope, Aiden. It looks like the goblins have fled for now, but we could really use a healer; Gholog, Kerrick and I are in quite a lot of pain right now.”

He smiles and corrects himself, “well, maybe just me and Kerrick. Gholog’s just kind of lying there...”

OOC: Gnomeworks, I guess your question has already been answered by Zhure and Other Guy, but just so you know, I agree with them.

Oh, and BTW, the OOC thread is over here: http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=12183

I figured you would, but I was waiting for your statement of approval.

Seraphina, now (hopefully) having an image of a goblin in her mind, begins casting...

Seraphina casts silent image of a goblin. The image will conform to her as much as possible, and will match her movements.

"Now if I only spoke goblin." She says, sighing, once the spell is complete. "I'm going in, to do a little scouting. I'll be back in a few minutes."

With that, she follows the goblins, her image conforming to her movements as best as possible.

Heh, sorry about that... I'll make sure to use it in the future.

Gholog

Gholog looks peaceful. Not bleeding, as some of it is subdual.

 

[Jarval]

Seraphina makes a few small gestures with her hands as she mutters a the phrase to trigger her illusion spell. The image of a goblin form around her, roughly mimicking her movements. With a smile, she sets off into the cave mouth. She creeps a short way along the passage, glimpsing the head of a dragon laying on the cave floor ahead of her.

At that moment, she also spots the berserker goblin that wounded Jason and Kerrick staring straight at her. He calls out in what Seraphina assumes to be Goblin, and looks at her both expectantly and with some suspicion...

Outside, Jason ties a few rough bandages around Gholog's wounds, stopping the slight flow of blood (Not real game effect, but OTOH, it doesn't do any harm). Down below, Aiden attempts to the climb once again, gaining even less height that his previous try before sliding down again (Climb check: 2 - 9 = -7).

OOC: Just to clarify a point: Aiden might, with both some luck and time, be able to climb the rope, but his armour is just far too heavy for him to attempt the final rock face stage of the climb up.
