Q'Barra: Facing Truth

Sepoto:

[sblock] Just read your post Pebele after completing mine. If it is merely undergrowth with no trees, Sepoto will take a swift action and become invisible with ghost step and fire during this round as the creature races down the road toward Catherine. [/sblock]

[sblock] Rookseye: it is mostly underbrush, there would be no trees within 10 feet of the path, a few trees at 10-15 feet. Then, 20 feet from the path would be the dense trees of the jungle. So, it is up to you. A tree 15 ft from the road or invisible?[/sblock]
 


(I was in the middle of posting earlier, when my PC shut off on me ;x I rolled a lot better before, but that's luck lol)

(Initiative (1d20+4=5))

Charles draws his weapon(Longspear+1), which is already coated with Drow poison, while he moves towards the nearest beast, while keeping 5 feet between the target and himself. Charles watches its movements and is prepared to dodge it's attacks(Dodge). He does his best to strike the creature down.

(Attack (1d20+6=22))

(Damage (1d8+4=7, 1d6=1) 8 damage.)

(Drow Poison: Injury DC 13, Initial: Unconsciousness, Secondary: Unconsciousness for 2d4 hours)
(AC is against his target is currently 18, against another monster it is 17)
 

(ooc: Ok, sorry it took me so long to get this up, guys. Also, I'm still trying to get the hang of Dundgeni, so I don't know how to make it print the grid markers. I'm working on it, though, I promise! And also I made an error on the first map and did not take in to consideration the size of the Apes. I'm sorry.)

Sepoto quickly scales the nearest tree, and pulls out his bow as soon as he finds a perch. Meanwhile Darrick and Steadfast ride up next to Catherine. Darrick holds his sword at the ready in case either of the animals come within reach.

The southern-most animal snarls and charges towards Darrick, its superior reach allows it to claw at him from outside of Darrick's reach. However, the animal's claws glance harmlessly off of Darrick's shield.

Catherine, having an up close view of the animals, is able to identify them as Dire Apes. She held her Halberd at the ready and attempted to intimidate them. She seemed to have no effect on the Apes, however.

The northern-most Ape charged at Catherine and made a vicious swipe at her chest. Catherine Screamed in pain as the Ape's claws connected and left two wounds on her right shoulder. Catherine reacted quickly and swung her Halberd mightily at the beast that attacked her, she connected and the Ape grunted in pain.

Kaelan was also able to identify the Apes as he rushed towards the southern-most one. His Scimitar burst in to flames as he cleaved a savage blow at the Ape. The Ape howled in pain as Kaelan's blades connected. The Ape then turned to Kaelan and made a clumsy motion to claw him. Kaelan easily danced away from the Ape's claws.

Trebuchet's magic made an impressive display, however the Ape was able to dodge the flames and escape unharmed.

Charles rushed to Catherine's aide and speared the Ape that was attacking her. The Ape growled, but appeared to shake off the effects of Charles' poisoned spearhead.

The ape then turned and made a swipe at Charles, its claws raking across his left thigh.

(Phew! I think that was everything. Damage total: DireApe1 took 15 damage, DireApe2 took 28, Catherine took 10 and Charles took 8. Map for round two is below.)

"Have at them!" Darrick bellows, spurring Steadfast forward. He lashes out with his sword, even as his steed does the same with hooves and teeth.

[sblock]
5' step forward, and an attack upon Ape #10 from both Darrick and Steadfast.

Darrick's attack roll is a 13, and his damage (should he hit) is 9.

Steadfast does a bit better, with his hoof attacks being 21 (for 7 damage), and 16 (for 12 damage).

His bite attack is a 6, which would have done 6 damage had it hit.

As a side note, Darrick is projecting his Motivate Attack Aura, which I should have explicitly stated in my previous post. I've been adding the +1 to his attacks, but I don't know if everyone else remembered to do so.

Trebuchet steps 5' north to get a clearer shot at the towering ape. His left claw snaps back into place.

"Correcting course," he announced happily, and the ball of fire skidded to a halt, leaving a short trail of blackened dirt behind it...then launched itself at the northernmost ape again!

The warforged wasn't done though.

"Force evocation, phase one, preparing to fire." A structure looking a little like a flattened hemisphere located just about where a human's sternum would be; between and just under Treb's chestplates and about the size of a human head...whirred and made a clacking noise. It was split radially into five equal pieces by lines that crossed at the exact center. Each of the "slices of the pie" as it were, had a small rectangle in it.

Two of those rectangles slid open, revealing a bright blue light pulsing underneath.

"Target locked. Firing."

From each of the now open apartures...each one just big enough to poke a finger into...came a bright bolt of light. They zigged wildly, spreading apart to miss allies, then reconverging against on the northernmost dire ape to burst upon striking it!

(Directing Flaming Sphere as a move action to Dire Ape 1 again, DC15 to avoid, and firing Magic Missile at the same target. 2d4+2 damage.)

Kaelan

Knowing that the apes would not fare well against his Valenar blades, Kaelan intends to slash with both ends of his weapon.

[sblock=attacks/dam]Full attack with both ends, thanks to Charles flanking they are +9/+9. Attacks hitting AC 26 and 10 Damage for both attack rolls is: 9 damage and 6 damage I forgot to change the number of dice rolls to one in the link, still works out to nine damage. If Darrick kills ape10 before I do, I will charge the other, PA for full, activating another my other fire capsule. 1d20+7 . Forgot Darrick's aura, making it hit AC 16 with Darrick's aura. Going to use AP. [URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=888643]Hit AC 21 with AP, 21 damage + Catherine's aura if active(I forgot that too) total I believe is 23 damag total [/URL],[/sblock]

Charles curses at his wound. If any of them are still standing by the time he is ready to attack again, he shouts: Draw my blood will you?! He focuses on the nearest ape and stabs forward to strike it down.

(Doesn't use Skirmish, normal attack. If he has to move to reach the other ape, I will roll Skirmish, or you can do it for me if you want to speed things up)

Attack (1d20+7=14)

Damage (1d8+4=8))
