Sanne steps over the dying giant to face the next one. But she's having trouble getting her attacks in rhythm this battle.

Aeranduil whirls to face the closest threat, stepping back ward as he does so. He pointedly ignores the wolf in his face, aiming his volley of arrow at the hill giant.

"Voadam, use your magic!" he calls to his companion, hoping The Green Wizard has something prepared to deal with situations like this.


AC 23, HP 64/64

5' step to AG49, full attack vrs. Hill Giant 16

3 arrows, using Rapid Shot, Point Blank Shot and Adjust the Range/Woodland Archer, as well as Close Combat Shot to avoid any AoO from the giant: +17/+12/+17 (1d8+11+2d6 bane).

Morika moves on the opposite side of the hall to avoid deadly giant club, then lowers her head and charges into the wolf! His mass and four legs prevent him from going down, but the hit hurt.

Sanne steps over the dying giant to face the next one. But she's having trouble getting her attacks in rhythm this battle.

Thanor sets into the giant again, but, like Sanne, he is off this battle, for which he curses under his breath.

Morika moves on the opposite side of the hall to avoid deadly giant club, then lowers her head and charges into the wolf! His mass and four legs prevent him from going down, but the hit hurt.

Aeranduil whirls to face the closest threat, stepping back ward as he does so. He pointedly ignores the wolf in his face, aiming his volley of arrow at the hill giant. 2 of the arrows strike true.

"Voadam, use your magic!" he calls to his companion, hoping The Green Wizard has something prepared to deal with situations like this.

Momentarily snapping out of his daze, perhaps by the massive club that missed his head by a foot, the wizard steps back and produces a small feather from his pouch, before incanting a few arcane syllables -- the effect is awe-inspiring -- the giant looming over both he and Aeranduil pauses, begins to chuckle, then falls to the floor laughing.

The halforc strides confidently into battle,"Consider it brought, fools." He raises his spiked staff up over his head and smacks it savagely into the nearest ogre. "The Shadow will feast upon your weak souls this eve!"

Thanor is assaulted once again by the giant next to him, but is able to avoid his blows, much like the giant was able to avoid his.

The giant from within the room moves along the wall and gets within range of the Khoravar, while on the other side of the battlefield, the other giant continues to chuckle and laugh, unable to do much else.

The ogres converge upon Yoggrith, but are unable to land a blow, eliciting another evil grin from the priest.

The wolves yip and snarl, trying to get at the party, but are unable to get past the giant's prone body -- the lone wolf able to attack snaps at Morika, but misses.

"Wizard, get back! Elf, retreat, I cannot hold them all. Voadam, how long will he be down? Elf, don't kill him he blocks the wolves out!"

With each exclamation, Morika swings into the wolf, blood flying. She uses her scimitar almost like an axe, chopping rather then trusting, but it's viciously effective.

As much as Ipshivi hated direct combat, she knew that she couldn't simply sit back and watch while her compatriots were so badly out numbered. She scampered across the ceiling to a better perch and hurled another bolt of swirling dark energy at one of the giants.

[sblock= OOC]
>Move across ceiling to AF 35
>Eldritch Blast at giant 42; +13 ranged touch, 3d6+1 damage (point blank)

Since Sanne's original plan of moving into a flanking position on Hill Giant 42 would leave her in melee range of two giants, she reconsidered and quickly stepped out of one's reach before making two quick slashes with her rapier.
 

OOC[MENTION=24380]Neurotic[/MENTION]: you mean 41 hp damage right?(2x14 + 13?)

OOC[MENTION=29098]Rhun[/MENTION] - are you going to heed Neurotic's advice and change targets or continue firing at the giant?
