Remnants of the Horde-Flight from Aruth

Wekerak crouches low behind the rocks, keeping himself out of sight of the elves. They pass by, then when they run into ogres, I gut 'em from behind. The goblin's lips curl back with pleasure at the mental image.

Moving a little off to the side (to the right about 20') Forlash (still Flying)will let Evards Tentacles on the 1st group of elves to crest the ridge.
 


"I will help the captain, but first some magick here. This is stronger and will last longer."

Tsu'koka casts Good Hope* on the group (including mounts) as Forlash casts his Invisibility. He tosses the CLW wand to Klug.

Tsu'koka then directs Blood around to the south of the elves and across the valley at a run. Another incantation and a quick gesture and his outline blurs**. As he approaches the rear of the elves, he prepares to cast Glitterdust on them before slamming into the elves southern flank and starting up Inspire Courage.

*OOC: Good Hope: 10 mins; +2 morale bonus on saving throws, attack rolls, ability checks, skill checks, and weapon damage rolls.
**OOC: Cast Blur on self.
 

OoC:ENWorld just came back up and I need to run off...dammit. Just waiting on intentions from the rest before getting the smackdown under way.
 

The Elves still more than a round away Forlash casts Evard's Blac Tentacles, massive and sickly tentacles sprouting from the ground, engulfing 4 of the troopers, a fifth escaping.
Immediately, one of the elves in the rear stops, and points skywards, a blast of Lightning slamming into Forlash <missed save,30HP>...
 


Bargo grins and moving closer blows his new horn to signal the doom of the elves on both sides of the little valley. Shouldering it, he grasps Elf-Splitter in both hands moving to engage.

OOC: Try to use reach to kill ones in the spread. Go after ones that escape. Power attack when only getting one attack, frenzied attack when getting a full attack action.
 

As his tentacles engulf the troopers, Forlash smiles for a split second, the next thing he knew he was eating dirt and in quite a bit of pain FOOL!!! NEVER go into combat without first looking out for yourself, didn't you learn anything from your mothers beatings???Forlash immediatly gathers himself together and begins to trace along the spiderweb cut into his flesh over his heart, summoning the powers to protect him from other mages...

OOC: casting Minor Globe of Invulnerability
 

OoC:Trying to make sense of this mess :D
Is Tsu'Tsoka moving to attack the elves besetting Vespazian? That's what it sounds like.
Likewise, is Blaught going to attack those as well, or the group running up the hill at the main party?

Ferretguy, you just took 30 HP in damage. A Concentration check is at -30 to cast...and casting defensively isn't an option in this regards, as the check is from taking damage.
I assume that you will wait a round prior to casting it,and I am going to auto Forlash in order to save him another Lightning Bolt,Dave. Feel free to post differently if you choose.
The Axe hurl I am allowing on a one time basis(not setting a precedence), I am not going to rule such an attack as viable on a serious basis, but it looks cool this time.

IC
The elves charge up the hill, seeing only the flying Forlash,unaware of the rest of the group until a huge axe comes flying out of nowhere,neatly slicing the lead trooper in two before nearly decapitating a second elf (who barely escaped injury).
Kurg casts Sound Burst<4HP and 3 fail saves of 5>, sending 3 Troopers reeling and to the ground.

Several of the elves halt, sending arrows flying uphill <Kurg hit for 8HP, bargo for 4HP>.

Bargo blows his new Warhorn and is briefly shrouded by a pale violet glow, which fades quickly.

Forlash flies down behind the back side of the hill <drinking a Potion is he wishes>.

Wekerak takes the opportunity to snipe a lagging Trooper, putting an arrow between his shoulderblades,killing him.

Tsu'Tsoka and Blaught ride down the side of the hill.


Next Round


Elven Officer A 26: The Elven Officer in the midst of the troops points his gladius forward,yelling 'Troopers,Charge!.
The immediate effect is astonishing, as the elves all surge forwards, up the hill and over the rocky terrain,moving them within Charge distance on their action.
