Q'Barra: Facing Truth

[sblock]Okay, so my initiative should be 22. Roll 15, +4 mod, +3 from Aura.[/sblock]

Charles bites down on his lip and swiftly moves. He grips his spear and eyes his opponents. He places himself between his friends and his foes. He is ready to kill anything that approaches him.

If anything gets in his way, we will tumble his way past it.

[sblock]
Charles move four spaces, drawing his spear as he does. H-4 to K-5. Because that is still half his full speed, he can apply for Tumble to avoid any AoOs. If he is to provoke any AoOs, then I use Tumble to avoid all AoOs: (note, bonus from Darrick's Aura)
Tumble (1d20+13=24)

He uses Dodge on Wolf1.

With his standard action, he drinks Elixir of Fire Breathing. This does provoke an AoO.

AC=AC 19. (20 vs Wolf1)

Sepoto disappears from view and looses an arrow towards the Northern-most Child of Winter, but his arrow whizzes past the enemy's left side.

Charles moves to a better position and quickly chugs the foul potion. The potion burns its way down his throat as Charles eyes his enemies.

As Kaelan charged forward, the Northern Wolf dodged under his guard and savagely closed its jaws around his right side. It did not release it's grip until Kaelan's scimitar blade severed the wolf's spine. Once the wolf had crumpled in to a bloody heap, Kaelan felt the searing pain from his side.

The back-most Child of Winter finishes chanting and draws his scimitar.

A Black Bear suddenly materializes and moves swiftly to attack Charles. Its massive claws both connect with Charles' shoulders, but Charles is able to dodge out of the way of its jaws.

The Wolverine moves to attack Kaelan. It first rakes its claws down his left leg, then closes its jaws right on his knee. Kaelan grunts in pain, but remains standing and focused.

Catherine moves to Charles side and swings her halberd at the bear. She connects with a blow to its flank.

The Southern-most Child of Winter chants softly and draws its club.

Darrick moves forward and readies action to attack the first person to come in range.

Steadfast remains in place, ready to defend himself if necessary.

The Northern-most Child of Winter also chants softly and draws its club.

The still alive Wolf moves to attack Kaelan. Its teeth only glance off his already injured leg, but it sends fresh waves of pain through him.

Trebuchet readies action to cast Magic Missile at next hostile spell cast.

Summary
Kaelan takes 27 damage.
Charles takes 15 damage.
Wolf 2 is dead.
Black Bear takes 7 damage.

Seeing the bear savage Charles, Darrick breaks into a run, charging and slashing at the beast...

[sblock]Charge to J3 and power attack for 2 points. 16 to hit, 8 damage, and shifting Shield Block to the bear.[/sblock]
...calling out, "You're next, friend! You're next!" at the Child of Winter he'd challenged as he attacks.
 

Catherine moves quickly to Kaelan's position, while trying to duck and weave around the bear as she moves. As closes in on Kaelan, she utters a quick prayer to Dol Arrah as she lays her hands on Kaelan's wounds. "Dol Arrah, heal this warrior's wounds and grant him the strength to fight on in your name!"

[sblock]
Thanks for letting me change my action Pebele. I appreciate it.
Catherine moves to I3 and casts Cure Light Wounds on Kaelan.
Cure Light Wounds, 12 points

Kaelan

Kaelan silently curses to himself when he sees Sepoto's arrow fly high into the treetops. Charles had moved away from the bear and spat fire at the wolf near him. That was a neat trick, if I survive this I'll have to ask him how he did that. I'm in way over my head here, time to make a strategic withdrawal. Kaelan assumes a totally defensive posture and favors his better leg as he limps toward Catherine and unfortunately the bear as well.

[sblock=ooc]Here is to being lucky...total defense, boosting AC to 21, moving away from the wolf and wolverine and avoiding the bear, provoking 2 AoOs. Movement ends at I2[/sblock]

[sblock]Yeah, I'm not thinking straight. Comes of trying to type while a toddler keeps trying to reach the computer.... If the bear is down before Darrick's turn comes up, he'll take a double move to engage the Child of Winter that he's challenged. Unless the CoW is obliging enough to charge straight forward, Darrick likely won't be able to attack him this round.[/sblock]
 

Sepoto's eyes become slightly wider when he sees the arrow miss by such a large margin. He honestly can't recall the last time he missed something that large that he was trying to hit. Ignoring the ever-louder din of the battle erupting around him, replete with the cries of wounded animals and shouting knights, he takes aim for the same Child of Winter, this time steadying his hand and holding his arrow until the druid makes a move to do magic.

As he focuses, he wills the change to come over him. The chakit's posture changes dramatically to something more ape-like and arboreal, and great tufts of orange fur rise from his body and brow, giving his visage a sinister, simian scowl. When he looses the arrow a grunted, orangutan-like 'hoot' escapes his wide lips as he exhales.

[SBLOCK] Sepoto will shift, then hold his fire until the druid attempts to cast a spell or attack.
Short Bow Attack = 10, Yes, a natural "1" Unless I can save it with an action point (which I doubt I can) I won't bother rolling the damage dice in this case, Pebele. Ugh.[/SBLOCK]
 

[sblock]Hmm, didn't the Bear provoke an attack of opportunity while he moved at me? Well, no point to go back now, just curious why that didn't happen(I was counting on it)[/sblock]

Charles tumbles away from the bear, cursing his wounds. He backs up several feet and eyes Kaelen's situation. He sucks up a large amount of air and holds it for a moment. Then he spits forward and ball of fire flies at the wolf in front of Kaelen. Despite targeting the wolf, he is focused on the bear.

Tumble (1d20+13=22)

Pebele said:
[sblock=For BRP2] The Bear only made a 5 foot step to engage Charles, so it did not provoke an AoE. [/sblock]

[sblock]Ahh, I see, should have moved farther.[/sblock]


EDIT1: I just brainfarted and forgot to roll the damage for my breath...

[sblock]Fire Breath (4d6=12)[/sblock]
