Q'Barra: Facing Truth

[EvolutionKB]

Kaelan

Kaelan sees the massive hoof of Steadfast crunch onto the skull of the lizard and he knows that they can handle this threat. Charles was fighting alone however, and it looked like he was bleeding pretty good in several places. Kaelan moves swiftly and quietly towards the lizard attacking Charles, one end of his scimitar becoming cold as ice. At the end of his charge he briefly closes his eyes and says a prayer, "Kaelan guide my blade," before neatly cutting at the lizards neck.

Charles aches from his wounds, but remains satisfied with his last hit. He is quick to jump and roll several feet to his right, doing his best to avoid being hit again. He again tries to spear the lizard through. Reptile, can't you bite any harder?! he shouts as he stabs forward.

Trebuchet, seeing his initial target down, moves forward 25' (to G10) and considers. The various accoutrements on his left arm recede back into the cowling, and he turns to face Charles' lonely solo fight.

Three small openings slide open in the oddly pie-shaped hemisphere just under where a human's sternum would be. From inside the holes burns actinic blue light.

"Tier one force evocation, target locked," he announced cheerfully, and three small bolts of energy burst from inside him, zigging and zagging until they all converged as one upon the lizard attacking Charles.

(Magic Missile for 2d4+2 damage)

 

[Rookseye]

After dispatching the hissing monstrosity in the pathway, Sepoto's keen ears detect the sounds of Charles' struggle to the north. Scanning the undergrowth from his higher vantage point, he spots the scout circling the the massive reptile, jabbing at it with his spear, while dragging his wounded leg behind him.

Shifting slightly in the crook of the branch, his form still faint and indistinct, he nocks another arrow and turns to fire, aiming again for the giant lizard's head.

[SBLOCK] Provided that he can still retain his sudden strike damage (assuming that the squares are 5', and it the target is < 30' away) Sepoto fires at lizard #3, the one attacking Charles. If the distance is greater than 30', he terminates his Ghost Walk ability prior to firing his bow, as no benefit will be gained.

Short Bow attack = 22
Short Bow damage = 2
Sudden Strike damage = 9

[Yeoman]

Catherine moves her hand down to her injured leg, and murmurs a quick prayer to Dol Arrah. "Goddess hear my call! Heal your unworthy servant that she might fight on in your name!" Her wounds partially healed, Catherine then advances towards Charles's position, limping ever so slightly.

[Pebele]

Catherine's wounds began to heal, and she limped towards Charles.

Charles tumbled backwards, and was able to avoid the lizard's teeth, then stabbed his spear forward, but the injured lizard is able to avoid the blow.

Darrick's sword connects with the lizard's back, but it still had enough life to hiss at him. Steadfasst quickly snuffed that life out, as the lizard's skull was crushed under his right hoof.

Kaelan charged at the lizard that was attacking Charles and sliced neatly through the lizard's throat with one end of his scimitar. The lizard fell forward on the ground, still and silent.

(Great job everyone. I will calculate your total XP and post it tomorrow. The next big leg of the journey will be up tomorrow as well.)

Kaelan

"Good fight everybody, we are working well together. Catherine, why don't we use my wand to heal everybody up today. If we find any agents of the Children then you'll still have all your spells." Kaelan takes a look at the bodies of the lizards, seeing if they were starving like the apes they had encountered a few days before. "We should keep moving, the sun has just reached it's peak in the sky."Knowledge (Nature): 9

[sblock=ooc]I'll expend charges on the wand if everyone is in agreement.[/sblock]

 

[BRP2]

Well, I got quite a brusin' from that. I should been more careful... Charles speaks with a light tone as he looks at his wounds. Got my blood pumping though.

 

[Rookseye]

Sepoto shoulders his bow and drops from the tree, landing lightly upon the muddy jungle floor on one knee. Making his way to where Charles and Kaelan stand over the dead reptile, he sniffs the air and scans the the thick foliage around him to see if there is anyone watching the aftermath of the confrontation.

First Mo'kede and now this...

Sepoto thought these angry Children were cowards for goading half-starved beasts into attacking he and his companions. Perhaps they yet lurked to observe their ambush.

[SBLOCK] Sepoto will make an attempt to Spot anyone who may have been watching the aftermath of the confrontation from afar. Spot check = 26 [/SBLOCK]
"Friend Charles, are you all right? It seems the jungle itself now lays in wait for us. I am curious to see what hungry creature will try to gnaw upon us next, perhaps a pack of clawfeet if these Children have their way..."

 

[Shayuri]

"I am dissastisfied with my combat performance," Trebuchet mutters as he fusses with some of the instruments in his arm. "Avoiding friendly fire when attacking into a melee is more difficult than I believed it would be. When we return, I will develop a specialized training exercise to simulate that complication."

He offers a stiff, contrite bow of his head towards Charles and the others. "My most sincere apologies for failing to reduce our foes to piles of ash in a timely manner."
