S2: War in Vastermarch - Completed

[Patlin]

waiting for Patlin. Not sure what Banion is going to do, and I know you're around.

ooc: Oops! Somehow I had thought the pointer was on Beamer, and Banion had just gone. Sorry for tying things up.

5' step to the north and attack #13 (1d20+13=17, 1d6+1d8+3=9)

(I'm not sure what the color difference means. If 13 is KO'd, I'll go after 17 instead. They're both orcs, right?)

 

[SlagMortar]

Beamer steps farther back from the orc to get some space to work his magic.

If he has noticed Tharok, he casts glitterdust (DC 15 Will or blinded) on him to point him out to the rest of the group.

Otherwise, he casts magic missles directing two missles at 17 and one at 13.

OOC:

Spells remaining prior to this round: 5/3/4

Round 4 (10:35:18) (con't)

(the colored orcs and zombies are just that - glowing from glitterdust. And blind)

Banion steps forward & hurls his mindblade, killing an orc.

Beamer can not see Tharok, or any of the northern orcs. He directs two missiles at the orc attacking him, killing it. He directs his third missile at the blinded zombie, injuring it (2 pts)

Torvin moves to the nearest horse and mounts.

The orcs attack where they can. Two make their way through the trees and move to attack Lothar and Eusebius. Lothar is ready, and skewers one with a crossbow bolt (23). Eusebius also sees the orc coming and cuts it down with his chain before it can strike him (30)

Others rush forward and attack the south wall. One hits Razh (8 pts). One hits Ogrin hard, but it's not deadly

One of the boys manages to administer the potion Ogrin gave him to the wounded boy, saving his life.

Juliana heals herself again, clinging to consciousness.

[Boddynock]

Eusebius is desperate to reach Juliana but dare not leave Beamer unprotected. He contents himself by moving adjacent to Beamer and handing one of his healing potions to the plucky boy standing next to him.

"Here, lad, take this to Juliana - the woman in armour there. Tell her it's a potion of healing. If she's badly hurt, you give it to her."

Then he calls out over the battlefield noise, "Banion, what's attacking Juliana? I can't see any enemy near her."

He says quietly to Beamer, "Be ready to move when I do - we need to help Juliana."

Finally, he raises his fist, brandishing the holy symbol on his ring. Wreathed by the unending flames, it acts as a focus for his call to the Sun Lord to banish the evil undead.

And all the while he keeps an eye on Lothar and Torvin, alert for any sort of betrayal.

[sblock=OOC]

• 5 foot step straight up to 14.
• Hand over potion with instructions (move action).
• Shout to Banion (free action).
• Speak to Beamer (free action).
• Turn undead (standard action).
  War in Vastermarch; big battle; 2nd turn attempt; turning check & turning damage (1d20+1=16, 2d6+4=6)
  (That turns up to 6 HD of undead with up to 5 HD apiece. It destroys any in range (60 ft) with 1 HD.)
• And he's ready with up to three AoO if either Lothar or Torvin try to attack him or Beamer.

[Patlin]

Then he calls out over the battlefield noise, "Banion, what's attacking Juliana? I can't see any enemy near her."

"There's someone in the trees with a black and white face mask! I don't have a clear shot! He has one of those magic remote hand things!"

 

[Patlin]

On his next turn, Banion will throw a mindblade at Z6 in an effort to clear the way toward Tharok. As zombies are immune to Psychic Strike damage, the mindblade will not discharge, and so Banion will not need to charge it again. After reforming the blade, he will move forward 30' to the square currently 2 east and 1 south of z1. (If Z6 has cover based on Banion's current position, he'll move first and then throw, which would give him +3 attack and +1 damage as well.)

-2 from range, No PBS (as Zombie, no Psychic Strike) (1d20+10=29, 1d6+2=8)

Banion's attack strikes what would be a vital spot on a living creature, dealing 8 points of slashing damage to the zombie.

 

[B4cchus]

Talbin moves 5' forward and launches a sling bullet to Orc 26's head

ooc: attack: 23 damage: 15 Rolls are here
Hide check: 21

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Round 4:

Despite sustaining some damage himself and seeing his friend hit hard, Rasereit remains relatively calm. He strikes twice at the orc right in front of him, but this one is less careless than the last. It parries the axe blow (12) and dodges the shield bash (12).

 

[Someone]

"A orc wizard? I can't see it" says Nodis. He watches the constructs attack the orcs at the back.

[sblock=ooc]Constructs attacks:
1st one: attacks #11, hits AC 14, damage 12. If the orc is killed, then Cleaves to orc 24, hits AC 22, 8 damage.

2nd one: Moves to 25-D, one square south of orc 8, provoking from him (but remember the construct has Mobility). Then attacks:
Attacks orc 8, hits AC 13, 8 damage. If killed, Cleaves to orc 9, autohits (natual 20) and 11 damage.

Attack rolls here

Nodis himself tries to regain Focus as a full round action, but fails.[/sblock]

 

[Manzanita]

Round 4 (10:35:18) (con't)

Eusebius steps North, handing off his potion and organizing his team. He then holds up his holy symbol and sends a blast of light towards the last two zombies. Both turn to flee as fast as their dead legs can carry them.

Talbin launches another bullet at an orc. This time, though, it swishes through the brush (target has 20% concealment in the bushes)

Razh battles the orcs inconclusively, as does Hugh. Currently no one can see Tharok.
