Decent damage, but I was hoping István would succeed in dropping the thing in one hit. Oh well, a running fight it is then. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" />  Thanks for the AoO and nice description BTW. It's not clear if the imp is flying level across the rooftops where István can follow it but I'll go ahead and assume that's the case until told otherwise. Considering the kinds of spans that he can traverse by running and leaping it would seem to be a reasonable assumption.The gnomish harrier takes up pursuit of the fleeing fiend without a moment's pause. Keeping his attention firmly fixed on the flying creature as it flaps wildly just a few steps ahead of him, István silently runs along the slate shingled rooftop of the boarding house. As he moves, the whisper gnome leaps deftly over chimneys, window gables and decorative ironwork spikes with magically silenced footfalls (charging 50-ft. directly towards the imp, +2 bonus to attack, -2 penalty to AC, while using whatever cover is available along the rooftop to attempt to hide his approach from the imp, Hide +23 with a -20 penalty for charging, all as a move equivalent action). Having caught up to the infernal creature the gnomish harrier lunges forward with his crystal shard and, calling once more upon the uncanny agility granted to him by his magical fencing gloves (as a swift action), aims for its small vile heart (Standard action, skirmish attack with rapier +10, +2 for charging, 1d4-1+3d6 damage).Edit: If you judge that István's path isn't straight enough or is too obstructed to charge in a straight line, then go ahead and disregard that part. Instead, he'll try leaping just before his attack so that he's striking downwards at them imp, thus getting a height bonus. Likewise, if you judge that István is aware that devils are vulnerable to silver weapons, then he'll draw his silver dagger as part of his move action and use it to strike at the imp rather than his crystal rapier. Every other detail can remain the same I believe.[/sblock]</blockquote>
