Resurrection City IV: Et In Arcadia Ego

[Old Fezziwig]

Diggory delays to see what the others do and then fires his gun at the creature, should things head that way.

[sblock]Initiative, 16; Ranged Attack with gun, 21; damage, if necessary, 4. Diggory's Roll History.

I kind of like this way of rolling — what do you think, Andrew? Let me know.[/sblock]

Trevor shouts "Out, Out!" and pulls back.

Sorry for not posting. Back now.
Initiative:
[dice]
If I win init, I'll use a Move action to get out, wait for everyone else, then use the rest of my action to close the door (so 2 move actions total).
Edit: OK, I didn't win. I'll just try to run for it...

Vaughn manages a scream as the leopard leaps at him, sinking its teeth into his neck. He manages to fight it off and stumbles towards the others, bleeding copiously from a gaping wound. He falls prostate on the ground. Hewitt grabs Vaughn under his arms and drags him outside, and Trevor is quick to follow suit and runs out. Still wielding his weapons, Diggory does likewise. The leopard roars and pads its way out after the men.

As it begins heading out, Trevor and Diggory get sudden impressions of uncanny intelligence.

[sblock]Jim -- exactly how does the internal die roller work? I'd like to use it in my games I play in (yes, I actually *play* too). Kajamba -- that way works just fine. That's the leopard's second round action -- I've gone ahead and taken Diggory's, based on your post from earlier. Let me know what Trevor's doing this round.[/sblock]

Once outside, Diggory fires at the creature, hoping he'll at least slow him down.

[sblock]Ranged attack, 20; damage, if necessary, 3. Diggory's Roll History.[/sblock]

Trevor levels his revolver unsteadily and lets loose

[sblock]
Attack roll [dice=1]20[dice] +0 Dex, -4 non-proficiency.

The dice syntax is
(dice=#)Size(/dice)
so (dice=1)20(/dice) rolls 1d20.
Replace all parens with square brackets of course. It's interesting because you don't know what the result is as you write your post...

Edit: And that time it didn't work because I got the syntax wrong. Try again:

[dice=1]20[/dice] +0 dex, -4 non prof.

Edit 2: AND I forgot. You can't use the dice tag when you edit, only with new posts, so don't forget the closing slash like I did the first time. *sigh* Can you roll for me?

Hurriedly, Hewitt pulls a bandage from his satchel and begins dressing Vaughn's wounds. Diggory and Trevor both empty rounds into the charging cat, Trevor's wounding it severely. Bloodied from the bullet's impact, the cat takes a massive swipe at Trevor.

Trevor:
[sblock][dice] +6 = 11 to hit Trevor.
[dice] +3 = 8 damage.

EDIT: crud, I see now it substituted a d6 for a d20 in the first roll, although I could swear I entered 20. At any rate, we'll use that result, since it was my fault.[/sblock]

 

[Old Fezziwig]

"Blast it! This beastie's quick!" Diggory backs up and fires at it again.

[sblock]Ranged attack, 6; damage to innocent bystanders, if necessary, 6. Diggory's Roll History.[/sblock]

 

[JimAde]

Voicing a strangled cry, Trevor backs away from the creature and fires again. "Die, curse you!"

OOC: Forgot to roll:

[dice] -4 for non-proficiency

Diggory fires a blind shot towards the cat. It impacts with the side of Madame Sosostris' wagon, but thankfully due to the late hour there are few out and about. Reflexively, Trevor fires back into the cat's underbelly. It yowls and falls to the ground. But when it expires, it dissipates into mist and then vanishes.

All around, you can hear the stragglers who are still here screaming and running. Hewitt looks up from Vaughn's prone body, his hands bloodied. "I think he may pull through," he says. "It looks worse than it is. Thankfully, the bite's missed the major blood vessels. He'll be needing more than what rudimentary aid I can give him here, however." He stands. "They have to have a doctor around this place somewhere. Watch him, Diggory, I'll go find him." And he sets off.
