Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil

[DarkMaster]

Suddenly Krog remembers what that human blabber mouth said a few minutes ago. "I don't have to be the fastest, I just have to be faster than my compagnion. Obviously this one is too strong for me. I don't see why I should die here today"

Krog quickly withdraws from the area. (withdraw action, double move 80' feets away).

 

[Mithran]

Brar (druid)

Brar makes some growling noises to Kali (signaling him to attack) and run's to the dragon's left. (Hopefully towards some cover)

If there are any plants near the dragon for the spell Brar will cast entangle centered behind the dragon so as not to hit Krog.

If there are no plants for the spell Brar will throw a dart instead.

 

[DarkMaster]

OOC I will slightly modify my action

Krog carefully thinks, "The slowest is the unlucky one. The druid can probably change in a bird or other quick animal, that leave Hedwan and the damn human.

Krog rushes on hedwan, grab him by one hand and put him on his shoulder.

OOC Only if he agrees of course.

 

[Mithran]

Brar (druid)

OOC: as it seem's the other are going into a full scale retreat I think Brar will change his tactics.

While the others are (hopefully) distracting the dragon Brar will run for one of the nearby rooms. (Kali follows, of course)

 

[Lobo Lurker]

...the big lummox! the song is about heroism and courage in the face of certain death... not fleeing before an obviously superior enemy! Honestly, must I do everything myself? Now, how do I get myself out of this situation with both arms attached?

Caine doesn't let his outrage affect his song in any way.

C'mon Redithor and Chatrilon, do something.

OOC: In case the italics don't make it obvious, Caine is thinking.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Krog retreats back to the entrance of the large chamber, picking up the smaller Hedwan in the process.

Brar looks around, seeing at least five openings in the room. Two are long hallways, one on the left and one on the right, both leading to multiple closed doors in various states of disrepair. Two others are simply openings that lead out of sight. The last opening is another door, right behind the Dragon. The nearest is the hallway to the right, which you head to quickly, seeing three different doors on opposite walls and an open room about a hundred feet own the hall.

((Hedwan casts Scorching Ray from Krog's shoulder...going to require a Concentration check to cast it because of the circumstances. Hedwan gets an 18 and passes the check...so, the Ranged Touch attack is a 17. That hits the Dragon and deals 17 Fire damage. And just a little note, Scorching Ray can be bypassed by SR.))

A bright red-orange ray of fire shoots out from Hedwan's finger. Krog feels the head of it next to his head, and they all see the ray collide head on with the angered Dragon, burning and scorching its face. The Dragon rears back slightly, shaking its head and roaring painfully, almost ending in a whimper.

Seeing the state of things, Redithidoor notches an arrow onto his short bow, before letting it loose at the injured Dragon. As the arrow flies out, the young Elf seems to have gained at least a bit more courage in his voice, despite his actual words, "Perhaps we should be retreating?"

((Redithidoor's attack is a 12. A miss.))

Chatrilon also pulls out a shortbow, standing his ground just near the entrance to the room. Before letting loose an arrow at the Dragon, he growls to the rest of you, "Stand your ground! Stop running like cowards! Do you want to be killed from behind?!"

((Chatrilon's attack is a 21. Just hits and deals 3 more damage. End of Round 1. Actions for Round 2?))

 

[Lobo Lurker]

Well at least some of us know how to handle a threat. Caine continues to sing his song of heroism and bravery. Simultaneously, he sights along his nocked arrow and lets it fly.

 

[Ferrix]

((Hedwan casts Scorching Ray from Krog's shoulder...going to require a Concentration check to cast it because of the circumstances. Hedwan gets an 18 and passes the check...so, the Ranged Touch attack is a 17. That hits the Dragon and deals 17 Fire damage. And just a little note, Scorching Ray can be bypassed by SR.))

"Krog, put me down and get that other gnome to heal you." Even if Krog doesn't put me down, Hedwan will draw the wand of magic missiles and make with the blasty-blast.

((Oops, must have been thinking of Melf's Acid Arrow; Magic Missile 1d4+1))

 

[DarkMaster]

Krog let Hedwan falls "Take good care of yourself buddy" on the ground and heads towards the other gnome for healing.

OOC He will double move sheating his greatsword and switching to his bow.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

((Caine's attack is a 15. Miss.))

The arrow goes high, bouncing off the already collapsed ceiling and falling uselessly behind the Dragon...which has turned towards Brar. It roars at the small Gnome before pouncing across the chamber, sharp-toothed jaw first.

((Dragon's attack against Brar is a 26. Hits and Brar takes 6 damage.))

The jaw clamps down on the Gnome's arm, biting deep and holding on for a short moment before letting go and roaring again. Its wings flare out and it arches its back as if to pounce on Brar again.

((Waiting on actions for Brar...))
