Paths of Legend - Tragedy at Silvergard

[crazy_monkey1956]

OOC: William (and anyone else with ranks in it) can make a Knowledge (Religion) check for more information.

The quarry workers jerky movements seem to prevent them from moving very quickly.

OOC: Next in the initiative - Johen.

 

[Amaury]

R1

oh oh... they.. they 're getting too close! Johen thinks with alarm.

Quickly, he raises his right arm lifting his shortspear in the air, pulls back a bit
before throwing it with all his strength at the first incoming 'worker'!
The shortspear wobbles a bit in the air but hits true : squarely in the worker's chest.

Johen then retreats a few paces and shouts: "Guys! They're after us!!"

Round 1

OOC: First non-surprise round. Everyone except Johen and Aohdan is still flat-footed until your turn in the initiative comes up.

Initiative order

21: Corath
21: Valen
20: William
16: Estelle
14: Muzdum
12: Norali
10: 4 Zombies
7: Alaric
6: Aohdan
4: Johen

The four quarry workers continue their slow, uneven advance. Johen's spear piercing through the lead worker's chest, the tip protruding from his back. Other than jerking slightly from the force of the impact, the worker's death clouded eyes don't even blink in response.

OOC: Next in the initiative - Corath.

Round 1
The four quarry workers continue their slow, uneven advance. Johen's spear piercing through the lead worker's chest, the tip protruding from his back. Other than jerking slightly from the force of the impact, the worker's death clouded eyes don't even blink in response.

OOC: Next in the initiative - Corath.

Upon the dust clearing enough for her to see, Corath cocks her head to a rather severe angle, obviously confused by the sight of a person still upright with a spear sticking out of its chest. These don't move smoothly like I do. What could they possibly be?

"I will move forward to keep them away from you," she says to Alaric. Suiting action to words, she deploys her rapier with a soft shing and approaches the one with the spear sticking out of it. She attacks, moving fluidly, as if she had no joints at all.

Confused by the zombie's jerky movements, Corath watches her attack fail miserably.

[sblock=OOC]Corath's attack roll: (1d20+1=4)[/sblock]

 

[crazy_monkey1956]

The zombie makes no effort to dodge Corath's attack and indeed doesn't seem to care that it's being attacked at all.

OOC: Next in the initiative - Valen.

 

[Helfdan]

Valen Sablewood


The woodsman narrows his eyes as he sees the monster unharmed by the spear. Then we shall have to hack them apart, he thinks. He smoothly draws his longsword as he moves up next to Corath, and swings fiercely with a two-handed grip.

[sblock=OOC]

Attack: 1d20+4=18

Damage: 1d8+4=11

Valen's sword slices through dessicated flesh, removing nearly half of the quarry worker's torso...and still it stands, seemingly oblivious to the horrific wound.

OOC: Next in the initiative - William.

*Knowledge Religion: 24*

"By the shadows! Perverted abominations, I shall send you back to the grave!" Sir William lets a shout that leaves no trace of doubt as to what's attacking them or his opinion of what should be done, and suits action to word, charging forwards and slicing his sword (Does it seem to glow for a moment as he swings?) deep through the chest of the nearest shambler. "They are hurt little by arrow or club!" He shouts back at his companions "Sword, Axe, and Fire are the way to destroy them."

[sblock=ooc]
Charge, Smite Evil, wielding bastard sword 2-handed.
Attack + 9 : AC 23

OOC: First, William's knowledge of the undead tells him that these are indeed zombies, and that piercing and bludgeoning weapons will have little effect against them. Second, a little clarification, please: Did William attack the one Valen just sliced, or a different one?

*OOC: The one allready damaged if possible. I assume that with such a high check, He knows how 'tough' these things can be, so concentrating attacks is a good thing.
As to the DR, that's why paladins carry Hackmasters. . *
