R2: Rats in a Maze [Manzanita judging]

OOC: Just a note to say that Gideon is going to try and maintain the pin on Drezel until Tor comes to and kills Drezel, or it looks like Otto is going to make mincemeat out of Metrius or Fimble. If it looks like Otto is going to kill one of Gideon's companions, he'll leave the grapple with Drezel and go after Otto (With his silvered longsword).
 

Drezel squirms and twists in Gideon's grasp, trying to free himself once more.

Metrius steps forward and tries to bring Otto down with his mace. He lands a solid blow to the thief's midsection but Otto stays on his feet.

Tor's eyes regain focus as his sight returns, but he's still too stunned to take action.

Otto grimaces from the blow, then lunges forward with his dagger. The blade plunges deep into the cleric's side and Metrius' eyes go wide with pain.

Drezel's Grapple check to escape the pin = 27.
Metrius mace attack on Otto = 21, damage = 5.
Otto dagger attack on Metrius = 16, damage = 5.
Gideon needs to make an opposed grapple check to keep Drezel pinned, then it's his action. After Gideon it's Fimble then Babette.

Opposed grapple (1d20+8=16)

Gideon wrestles with Drezel but loses a bit of focus when he sees Metrius take a heavy strike.

He shouts out to Babette and Tor, "Stab Drezel with something silver! I can't keep this up all day, and we still have Otto to deal with."

Hold fast Metrius, he thinks, just a little longer.

OOC: For his action, Gideon will delay to see what his companions do.
 

Fimble McGee

Fimble is really starting to get worried. I can't even hit him with liquid fire! Desperate to do something, Fimble loads his crossbow with one of his silver bolts and aims carefully at Otto. Then he fires.

OOC: I can't roll IC right now. No move action

ooc: Rae, Fimble's alchemist's fire attack is his action for this round, I just haven't resolved it yet. I'm assuming you want to use this crossbow attack for next round, or did you mean to replace the alchemist's fire with the crossbow?
 

OOC: Whoops, I'm one round ahead. However, if Otto is close enough to do melee with Metrius, Fimble wouldn't throw the alchemist's fire. So yes I'm one round ahead, and... Yes, I'm changing Fimble's actions. =P
 


Fimble starts to draw something out of his pack when he notices how close Metrius is to Otto. Rethinking his plan, he loads and fires his crossbow once more at the rogue. The bolt buries itself in Otto's side and the thief slumps to the ground, no longer a threat.

Babette heeds Gideon's words and draws her dagger. Not really used to the weapon, she stabs down awkwardly, missing Drezel completely.

Fimble crossbow attack on Otto = 15, damage = 3.
Gideon can take his delayed action now that he's seen what his companions have done.

Seeing Fimble drop Otto, Gideon almost lets out a cheer. But his attention is drawn to Babette as she stabs in near his arm. He rolls quickly to one side, trying to put Drezel in the path of her blade, but only manages to make her miss completely. Seeing that she is heeding his words, Gideon redoubles his efforts to make Drezel a stationary target and tries to keep him pinned.

Pin attempt (1d20+8=19)
