[QUOTE="Kelleris, post: 2027932, member: 19130"] Isida: Is Narine going to take a standard action before this round ends? [U]Feiran:[/U] Reaching into her cloak, Feiran pulls out some sort of weapon, looking like a sort of chute between two spindles. She fiddles with it for a moment, obviously prepared to bring the weapon into play in the near future. [sblock] I think "Unfortunately he seems too badly stuck for that to help" was supposed to tip you off as to the result of the check. ;) Also, I'm pretty sure your point count is off, since 140 was at the end of the last combat. You used the [I]sphere of savagery[/I] on the way here, so that's 15 points, and you may also have healed someone (Terak?) after making that post. Oh, I should also say, using the [I]whirligig[/I] on a mob is quite likely to result in an airburst. Good - you'll nauseate at least someone. Bad - you won't get continuous damage or a very high chance to keep them nauseated, and you could very well kill the schlub who gets beaned with the [I]whirligig[/I].[/sblock] [U]Illira:[/U] Thanks for including all the relevant info! :) [sblock] Note that Mobility only applies to AoOs incurred by movement, however, not that I mind too terribly much having it apply to any and all AoOs. [/sblock] Narine and Feiran: [sblock] She's casting [I]shield[/I]. [/sblock] Illira completes her spell while keeping one eye on the mob, and a slight waver in the air before her indicates that some she has raised some kind of magical defense. [U]Mobs 3 & 4:[/U] After being momentarily stunned by your weapons and by Adinal's psionic attack, the crowd fell back a bit and gave you a little more breathing room. They've been plucking up their courage, though, and a few of the braver ones break the fragile bubble of space around you and attempt to land a blow on Cagthail. He parries their attacks easily, and it looks for a moment as though the mob's courage may not hold against skilled fighters - it's as though a sense of fear and loyalty is battling within them to overcome a basic sense of self-preservation. They're merely nasty now, instead of actively enraged. At least, until someone discovers the miracle of thrown weapons - a muddy rock comes from somewhere in the back of the crowd and strikes Cagthail's hand as he brings his main-gauche up to deflect a clumsy club blow. The sight of blood breaks the spell that had fallen over the massed commoners, and they begin to test their luck with your defenses, perhaps sensing a reticence to kill untrained combatants on your part. {Cagthail, the rock slammed into your hard pretty hard - you keep a grip on the dagger, but you take 4 damage from the blow, and several of your fingers are bruised and bloody.} Round 2! Narine's next. And two other things. I just want to say kudos to everyone who posted so nicely - description for everyone to see and OOC for me to deal with. Good stuff. Also, I wanted to repost the OOC thread, since the old link is pretty much kaput after the server move. ([URL=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=105307&page=3]Here[/URL]) I'll be posting later on tonight there, and I'd like to encourage you to throw any thoughts up on the OOC thread while you're waiting for your turn to come around. [SIZE=1][U]Initiative:[/U] Narine/Dros: 20 Mob 1: 20 Feiran: 19 Adinal: 19 Cagthail: 17 Boogeyman: 16 Mob 2: 15 Illira: 14 Mob 3: 10 Mob 4: 5[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
