Q'Barra: Facing Truth Chapter 2

Stepping nimbly around Trebuchet, Darrick darts forward and strikes at the closet foe, his blade flashing in the sunlight....

[sblock]
Intiative: 23

Move to K4, attack Bandit3 with a 2 point power attack. 11 to hit, with 6 damage in the very unlikely event that this attack was effective.

AC is 25 vs. Bandit3, 24 vs. all other foes.

Kaelan Hp: 36/36 DR remaining for day: 10

Kaelan watches as Charles moves around to attack the guard nearest him. His opening was there, now he only needed to take advantage of it. He took two long steps toward the nearest bandit and tried to gut him before he even knew he was upon him.

[sblock=ooc]Init: 17; Nat one on attack roll [/sblock]
 

(Sorry, I wasn't counting this first round as a Surprise round, since the bandits were obviously prepared for combat. Also, I rolled initiative for those that forgot. :) )

With a better view of the bandits, the group can see that there are two humans, a dwarf and an elf.

Darrick slashes at Bandit1(purple), wounding him as the bandit runs past before. Darrick then turns and slashes into Bandit3(black).

Bandit1(purple) swings his sword in a tight arc and cuts a furrow into Trebuchet's armored leg.

Charles rapidly moves to face the dwarf(white) and easily slips his spear past the man's guard, cutting him across the ribs.

Bandit2(light blue, elf) draws back his bow and lets forth a mighty shot which strikes Charles square in the chest. Charles gasps as the arrow is buried in his chest. He is still conscious and standing, but the pain is among the most intense he's known.

Kaelan steps forward and slashes at the dwarf, but the dwarf easily knocks the blade aside with his shield, before connecting a blow to Kaelan's left arm with his axe.

Sepoto (init: 14)throws a flask of the alchemist's fire at Bandit3(black) hitting him in the back with the sticky burning substance. The man tried to ignore the fire and continue with his planned assault.

Bandit3(black) joins his partner's assault on Trebuchet and connects with his own strike across Trebuchet's mithral chestplate.

Trebuchet (init: 6) ducks and weaves and manages to get off his spell without being struck. A column of stones batters the dwarf, who staggers a bit.

Catherine's presence seems to have rattled the dwarf, and it's obvious to see in the way he his holding his axe.

Damage Summary:
Kaelan: 10 damage. 26/36, 9 DR Remaining
Trebuchet: 17 damage. 13/30
Charles: 22 damage. 4/26

Blue= Kaelan
Pink= Catherine
Green= Charles
Purple= Bandit1 (Human)
Light Blue= Bandit2 (Elf)
Black= Bandit3 (Human)
White= Bandit4 (Dwarf)
 

A terrible buzzing, rattling noise emanates from Trebuchet as he reacts to his damage. A trail of blue ichor runs down his leg, and blinking lights can be seen under the rent in his chestplate.

"I am d-d-damaged," he reports in a voice that skips over itself. "Emergency core venting in th-th-three...two...wu-wu-wu-one."

Small flaps spring open all over his body, and there's a sound like something spinning faster and faster...a whine that gets higher pitched every moment. The exposed vents over his frame glow orange for a moment...then begin to vomit gouts of flame in all directions!

He then limps a little to the south, to help Darrick strike his foe.

(concentration check to cast defensively, DC 18 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1094890)

(Casting Fireburst. 4d8+2 damage to everything within 5' of Treb. Ref Save DC 15 for half)

(Then 5' adjustment to south to flank Bandit 3)
 

"Away from him, you bastard," Darrick barks, turning to attack Trebuchet's assailant....

[Sblock]Slash at Bandit 1, with a 14 to hit, 8 damage. Darrick does *not* get a flanking bonus, even if Treb moves before he does. It's a matter of honor, y'see. Continuing to Shield Block Bandit3, so AC 25 vs. him, 24 vs. the rest.[/sblock]
 

Argh! Charles cries. He hastily moves back several feet, coughing heavily as he does. He pulls out a Potion of Cure Light Wounds and chugs it down. He pulls out the arrow a moment later.

[sblock]
Uses Dodge on the archer.

Moves to P-4.

He drinks a Potion of Cure Light Wounds: Potion of Cure Light Wounds (1d8+1=9)

AC is 19 vs Archer, 18 everyone else.

Kaelan Hp: 26/36 DR remaining for day: 9

Kaelan hisses slightly at the pain he feels in his leg. Flames surround his blade as he parries the bandits next slash, and brings his scimitar in a high vertical overhead slash aimed at the man's forehead. He says a silent prayer to Kaelan as he brings the blade down.

[sblock=ooc]Attack w/ one end of weapon, power attacking for 4. Darricks aura included. Any flanking bonuses or Charles bonus of 1 will apply if he attacks the same have to be added to the final total. I am using another AP. 16 to hit. 22 damage(including 4 from weapon capsule). AP roll: 1, total attack roll 17 AC: 19[/sblock]
 

Sepoto turns from the sight of the arrow imbedding itself in Kaelan's chest only to see Trebuchet spun around by a violent blow from the still-flaming human. Seeing the warforged sustain harm of any kind with his metallic body seems impossible to the shifter, but he is acting even before Catherine yells her command. Fading from view, a resolute look upon his face the last thing his companions see, Sepoto raises his kukri high and leaps down behind the smoldering human below, slashing for the neck as he falls.

[SBLOCK] Ghost Step and using an action point on the attack roll, target is Bandit1:
Attack Roll = 18
Action Point =3, Attack Roll Total = 21
Kukri Damage = 2
Total Damage with Sudden Strike Damage = 12

"Darrick and Sepoto you take care of the humans, and Kaelan and I will handle the dwarf and elf. Treb and Charles, pull back for now." Catherine takes a quick step to the side, and brings her halberd around in a slashing arc towards the dwarf's head.

[sblock]
5' step left to M4 and attack the dwarf. If the dwarf is down, the Catherine will move to attack the elven archer from M2. Catherine issues a fighting challenge to whichever target she is attacking.
Attack Roll 21
Damage 12
I forgot to add in the +1 damage from the fighting challenge ability, so it should be 13.

[SBLOCK] Ok, Pebele, my action has been adjusted... I eliminated the poison from my attack also. Confused myself while looking at the map it seems. Good news is, now I am below and the elf can be next! ;) [/SBLOCK]
