Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

[Erekose13]

"That's why!" cries Maugra as she turns to face the killer again. She hastily loads her pistol again and fires.

 

[Cthulhudrew]

Vanden steps away from Longcoat towards the scythe on the wall, reaching into his pouch as he does so.

[sblock=ooc]I knew he wasn't dead, darn it! Should've done something about it, though, I suppose. Anyway, 5 foot step towards the scythe, and Vanden will remove his tindertwig from his belt pouch.[/sblock]

 

[Trench]

"What the-?" Ada leaps up and takes a swing at Longcoat with her club.

[Trollbabe]

With a shriek, Longcoat -- his wounds partially healed -- springs from the floor, leaping at Garn. One claw catches the half-orc in a previously sheared-away portion of his armor, and fresh blood spatters the wall. The half-orc folds to the floor, unconscious and bleeding out.

"Son of a..." Garnet scrambles to reload his crossbow and fire on the creature.

Once more, Maugra's pistol roars with flame and sound. Where the shot goes, though, she cannot tell -- Longcoat's coat billows, but he seems unstruck and unhurt.

As Vanden slips toward the scythe, pulling out a tindertwig as he goes, Ada cracks Longcoat across the face with her mighty club, spinning the creature around with a high-pitched scream.

[sblock=ooc]Ada does 10 points of damage, reduced to 5 by Longcoat's damage reduction.[/sblock]

Once more, the creature crumples into a heap of coat and dark blood.

[sblock=ooc]Thanks for your patience, everyone. I've been unbelievably sick -- I've lost 9 pounds over the course of this flu -- and am just now regaining the brain power required to not totally screw up combat.[/sblock]

 

[Erekose13]

"This time, it might be a good idea to ensure that he is down." says Maugra blowing the smoke issuing from her dragon pistol.

[sblock=ooc]Glad to hear you are doing alright.[/sblock]

 

[Cthulhudrew]

Vanden takes hold of the scythe and approaches the body of Longcoat. Holding it out as an offering, he says, "In some stories, severing the head from the body is an effective means of preventing the dead from rising. I fear, though, I am too weak at the moment to do this task. Burning the body might be suggested as well."

Out of the corner of his eye, he notices Garn lying in a heap. He shuffles towards the half-orc. "Gods! Garn- Maugra, can you do anything to help him?"

 

[Voadam]

Garn bleeds profusely but does not stir as his name is mentioned.

 

[Trench]

Ada ignores everything else around her and smashes Longcoat's skull in with her club. And then she takes the club to each limb for good measure. She'll watch the body carefully for any more signs of healing.

 

[Erekose13]

"Yes, yes let me through." she says moving over to Garn to bandage his wounds. She regrets not having any more divine aid so her skills will have to suffice.
