Scales of War #1 Rescue at Rivenroar IC

[Goonalan]

Fiery Insect #1

... is not yet finished with Freggo, it lurches forward- flails with its stump, to no effect, and then attempts to pincer its way through the recumbent Freggo's legs...

It doesn't do a bad job- Freggo's lower right leg is left bleeding profusely- charred and with several bones fractured as the beast releases its grip and scuttles around Freggo- next time it's aiming for the young heroes neck. Freggo sees stars, he's as light as a further- thr thump-thump of his heart in his ears- he's smiling, and close to unconsciousness... He needs help!

Fiery Insect #2

Has had enough of Velani, it lashes out and attampts to squeeze its claws shut, even the battered one, around her waist...

The good Sgt. is having none of it though, the left pincer she deflects with her shield, the right with her longsword- the beast flails, and scuttles around again- burning slightly as radiance pours from Velani in to the beast.

[Thanee]

Kyalia

“Oh, come on, don't you see, that this Lord Frazzle is only using you? You shouldn't let him do that to you!”

But Kyalia is a hunter, not a diplomat, so she keeps moving about the battlefield, looking for a suitable target for her bow. Seeing Freggo being mauled further by the other insect creature, while Velani and Kali seem to handle her current quarry just fine, she switches over to the other side of the room and changes targets to assist Freggo.


[SBLOCK=OOC]Free: Diplomacy
Move: M11
Minor: Hunter's Quarry on #1
Standard: Twin Strike on #1[/SBLOCK]

 

[Thanee]

Kyalia

Not all to happy with her aim, Kyalia raises her bow again, and fires a single arrow at the same insect creature.


[SBLOCK=OOC]ACTION POINT: Evasive Strike on #1[/SBLOCK]

OOC: *sigh*

Kali raises his axes as he moves toward the gnomes, spinning them in a dramatic display. Keep your hands to yourselves, and I won't hit you with these. But only because Derek asked us to be nice to you. With that, he spins away, catching the insectoid between himself and Velani, and slashing down with his axe. His brutal strike fractures the creatures shell as his other axe comes about in a disembowling sweep. As the insect collapses, he looms over the gnomes, ichor dripping from his axes. You DO want us to take you to Derek, yes?

[sblock=mechanics]Minor: Acrobatics to put on a display of prowess
Move: to N13, NOT provoking from the insect, therefore provoking from both Gnomes, who hopefully have better sense than to try punching (description has their crossbows in hand and picks on their belts)
Free: Assassin's Shroud on FIB2
Standard: MBA on FIB2 with Flank, activating shrouds
No Action: add Power Strike to the hit
Free: Dual Weapon Attack
Free: (only if that onslaught killed the insectoid) Aspect of the Cunning Fox, shift to M14[/sblock]

[sblock=Kali quick reference]For my convenience:
MBA (battleaxe): +7 vs. AC; 1d10+7
DWA (handaxe): +7 vs. AC; 1d6+7

[RavenBlackthorne]

Viator's body seems to slump slightly to one side: his frail body puffed out at the chest as he walks with a strange rhythmic gate towards the gnomes.

Like, seriously, bros, this Lord Frazzle is a proper waste of your time. Being in his crew is gonna end up with you in serious strife, or worse. We've had words with Derek and he's willing to forgive you, like, but if you push us, we've been given full on orders to wipe you.

Casually he reaches out with his left hand as his left eye twitches.

The air ripples around Freggo and him, the static building, ripping the firey creature from it position in a blur. It reappears between him and Velani, as the static erupts in a torrent up around his body, causing him to levitate slighty off the ground. The arcs lick toward the gnomes, but never reach them.

His hair streaking in the wind...

I'd think about it hard, bros

[sblock=Actions]Move = Bowl to N11
Free = Streetwise to Gnomes
Standard = Dimensional Scramble (Aug1) at N10: Fiery Insect Beast #1 - HIT 7 dmg and teleport to O12
Minor = Arcana for flourish[/sblock]

 

[Goken100]

...
"Who are you?" Doofus asks.

"...And what do you want?" finishes Stubby.

Then, "How do you know Derek?" the pair ask, again, in unison.

"Speak quickly foolish mortals or else Lord Frazzle commands that we end you..."
"What?"
"I said..."
"No, I got that- but 'end you'?"
"What about it?"
"A bit... y'know."
"No, I don't know."
"Y'know."
"NO- I DON'T KNOW- TELL ME!"
"A bit... Meh."

Doofus says nothing- only glares at his brother.

Stubby continues.

"Anyway..."
"Anyway what?"
"Frazzle."
"What about Frazzle?"
"He's a..."
"He's a what?"

Stubby shrugs.

"What does that mean?"

Doofus shrugs back.

"Frazzle's a dick bro..."

Freggo, still lying on the ground in blood and cooling lava, turns his head around curiously at the exchange of the gnomes. Freggo's still seeing stars, but he can't help looking back and forth as the two argue.

Forgetting himself, and feeling more than a little drunk from loss of blood, Freggo nods sagely. "True, that's definitely meh. What about, 'speak quickly or we shall bring death as Lord Frazzle commands'? Bit more professional sounding, eh?"

 

[larryfinnjr]

Velani (dealing w/ the Gnomes...not sure where we are just yet with the buggies)

"Let me make it simple for you, boyos. Stand down, or find yourselves lying face down. My hands would get dirty, and Big Tony hates his women dirty. Or, er... wait......."

 

[Goonalan]

“Oh, come on, don't you see, that this Lord Frazzle is only using you? You shouldn't let him do that to you!”

But Kyalia is a hunter, not a diplomat, so she keeps moving about the battlefield, looking for a suitable target for her bow.

OOC: *sigh*

Kyalia shouts over at Doofus and Stubby before scurrying towards Freggo and Gorm... the Gnomes hear her wise words, Stubby it seems is in favour.

"He's creepy", the Gnome states referring of course to Lord Frazzle.
"But think of the power..." Doofus ofles invisible power- within his grasp, maybe.

"Tell him- TELL HIM!" Doofus yells to you guys, "Tell him why it's not right what Lord Frazzle is doing... summoning Demons and the like, working with... them!"

And then Kyalia is ready, her arrows fly- an aberration- they both miss, she leans in- concentrates her efforts in to... blast it, wide again.
