Q'Barra: Facing Truth Chapter 2

[Yeoman]

Another hit like that...Just have to keep parrying these attacks. No choice.

Catherine does her best to maneuver her weapon into a defensive position as she continues to attack the massive beast man.

[sblock]
Switching to fighting defensively. +2 to AC for this round. If Kaelan dispatches Catherine's target, she will move 5' to C9 to attack Bandit 9.

Sepoto staggers backward, nearly falling over Trebuchet, his chest and arms cut to ribbons, the blood flowing freely from the gaping slashes.

"Trenchbucket.....help...."

[SBLOCK] Sepoto will take a 5' step to square C7, and quickly quaff a potion of cure light wounds, and then use Ghost Step to turn invisible until the next round. I'm not sure on the caster level of these potions, Pebele, feel free to roll for me. [/SBLOCK]

"Of course, Sepoto." Trebuchet obediently marches forward to block off Sepoto from further harm, even as he discharges a flurry of bright blue darts of force from his torso. The tiny bolts wheel and converge unerringly on the huge hyena humanoid, who seems to be the greatest threat so far.

(Move south one to stand beside Catherine and make sure Sepoto has a solid blocking line. Cast magic missile at Hyena...or if he falls first, then at the female facing Catherine. 9 damage. http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1197782 )

 

[Pebele]

Charles tumbles towards the open door and lunges at the heavily armored bandit, but the man easily swats the spear aside with his blade.

The woman pursues Sepoto, striking him hard in the chest and sending him sprawling to the floor. The other end of the blade, crackling with electricity slips past Catherine's defenses on her injured side. The blade carves a path up her side, as sparks sizzle across her armor. "Pathetic, children. Run along home, before it's too late!"

Darrick brings his blade across in an arc above the man's shield, which obviously takes him by surprise. His armor deflects most of the blow, but Darrick's blade comes away crimson.

Kaelan steps forward, blades flashing in the torchlight. The energized blade strikes the beast man hard in the back, and with a pained roar he collapses to the ground.

"Congratulations boy, you nicked me. Now it's my turn!" The heavily armored bandit's blade comes up in a rapid salute to Darrick, while the man's gauntleted hand triggers a capsule container similar to the ones Kaelan and Catherine use. His blade ignites in a blaze as he slashes at Darrick again. The blazing blade swings low, underneath Darrick's shield and cuts across his thigh, cauterizing the wound as it goes.

Trebuchet's darts of force rush forward and strike the woman in the chest. Even as the bolts are landing, Trebuchet is already moving to stand over Sepoto's prone body.

Catherine is caught off balance by the flurry of attacks leveled against her and does her best to move to a defensive stance, but her strike against the female bandit is easily deflected.

[sblock=EvolutionKB]Yes, the female bandit has avoided catching fire.[/sblock]

Edit hp for stabilization

[SBLOCK] Ouch. OK, optimism: I guess I can keep that potion in my inventory and hold on to that use of ki power! [/SBLOCK]

[sblock]I rolled for Sepoto to see if he stabilized at the end of the round, and he did. So he will drop no lower than -5.

And, yeah. He can keep his potion and Ki, so that's a good thing! Right? Yeah.[/sblock]

 

[Rolzup]

Doing his best to mask his pain and shock, Darrick lowers his shield a little and turns to present his side to his foe. "You're not nearly as dangerous as you think you are," he informs the other man, making a sudden lunge which (to his own surprise) penetrates his opponent's defenses.

With a self-satisfied grin, he takes a step backwards. I'm keeping him occupied, Charles, he thinks to himself, Now take the bastard down!

[Sblock]Yowza. Switching to fighting defensively, and spending an action point on his strike back at Mr. Smug Bandit: And someone loves me! 29 to hit, 7 damage, critical threat.

Rolling to confirm, and I can't remember off the top of my head if the action point contributes to this as well, so I'm leaving it out: The poot is moot, as the confirmation roll is a mere 10.

Following this, a 5' step back to H10. Current AC vs. Bandit 8 is 27. Fingers are crossed.[/sblock]

Concentration: 12 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1198695

(I can always rely on Invisible Castle to make an almost surefire roll go disastrously wrong at exactly the wrong moment. And I don't even get the satisfaction of throwing my dice at the wall! )

Somehow, Trebuchet just can't keep his mind on his spell as he tries to avoid the sword of his nearby opponent...

 

[Yeoman]

Catherine steps away from the woman as nimbly as she can, and attempts a quick healing prayer even as she tries to keep avoiding her blades.

[BRP2]

Charles looks at the situation. Sepoto has fallen and both Catherine and Darrick are about to wear out, Charles thinks to himself dissociatively. He gives two short glaces at Kaelen and Trebuchet as they assist Catherine. He sees Darrick's defensive stance and begins to tumble forward. "Hey, scum-bucket!

He places himself behind the heavy armored bandit and tries to use his position and speed to hit a weak point.

[sblock]
Tumble (1d20+11=20)

Move to E-9.

Attack Bandit 8. All attacks following Charles gain a +1 bonus to hit.

Attack; Damage; Skirmish (1d20+6=18, 1d8+4=6, 1d6=4) 12 damage.

I'm not sure who my Dodge is on, but I switch it to the Bandit9.
