Scales of War #1 Rescue at Rivenroar IC

[Goonalan]

With a low sustained growl, Gorm walks into the room. Following closely, Ah-shahran paces deliberately, staff clacking on the stone floor with each step. As he walks, his voice raises in a carrying tone. "Frazzle, old boy! How good to see you! I say, but your choice of decor is really quite horrid." As he clears the door, a stirring in the spirit world becomes evident. "But what's this drivel about 'doom' and 'destiny'? Decidedly dreary of you, my dandy lad. A detestful display of idiocy, most disappointing to discern."

Flicking an imaginary speck of dust from his sleeve, Ah-shahran pauses as he reaches the swarm of rats. A slow, menacing smile spreads across his face. "As I fear you'll soon discover, the only immediate destiny with a claim to doom--is YOURS!" With his closing shout, Ah-shahran wheels his staff above his head and sends a wave of power blasting into Frazzle and the assembled rats. As a soul-numbing dread covers the room, Ah-shahran slams the heel of his staff into the stone, unleashing a storm of spirits across the room, invigorating the adventurers and tearing at their foes.

While Frazzle and the rats reel from the assault, Ah-shahran directs a low appeal at his allies: "Now that I've gotten their attention, backup would be nice!"

[sblock=Mechanics]Minor: Adaptive Stratagem on Freggo
Move: to J:3, Gorm to I:3
Free: Corellon's Boon of Arcane Might daily, choosing Dread Presence
Standard: Dread Presence on E-I:4-8, catching all enemies. This area becomes a zone.
Action Point: Spirit of the Healing Flood, catching all enemies and all allies except Viator (in range but no line of effect).

Free: Memory of a Thousand Lifetimes. First priority--try to turn Dread Presence miss into hit on the swarm. 2nd, try to turn SotHF miss into hit on the swarm. 3rd, try to turn Dread Presence miss into hit on Frazzle. If all of those are hits already, save the power.

Note that all Dread Presence damage and Spirit of the Healing Flood are close powers, so they ignore concealment. Also, their damage is damage from a close power, thus triggering vulnerability in most swarms.

[sblock=Dread Presence text]Dread Presence

Your shadow lengthens and grows, looming over your enemies and overcoming them with dread.

GM: Right then... I think this is correct- feel free to put me right if its not.

Before Ah-shahran can do anything Lord Frazzle disappears from view- fades into... nothing.

GM: However if I read the rules correctly then that doesn't make a bit of difference for Ah-shahran's Burst or Blast- if I'm wrong then please help me out by showing me where I should be looking.

Freggo suddenly feels... burlier? Is that the word- certainly more capable of bringing the hurt.

Ah-shahran and Gorm, meanwhile, shuffle forward in to battle, and once there- unleash hell, or at least some of the old Deva's spirit friends, although they're not very friendly.

His Dread Presence is felt by most everybody- the Rat Swarm is decimated, two of the hidden Big Rats are killed outright, two of the other Rats are left injured and Lord Frazzle screams fit to bust- all are left sluggish and slow, and within a zone which is full to the brim of less than wholesome spirits.

GM: Here's the thing Frazzle has Will 14, you rolled a 14- from what I read then that hits- none of the concealment modifiers count, Frazzle is in the zone- therefore... Is that right. If not he has total concealment (Invisibility), therefore you are -5 To Hit, which means with the +6 from Memory of a 1000- you hit anyway. Please mail me back if I'm mistaken. The other thing is I seem to remember reading about Invisibility is negated if the creature is hit- I can't seem to find it now however? Any clues?

The second wave of hurt washes over the creatures- a Healing Fklood, which causes much harm to the Deva's enemies- the Rat Swarm is totally destroyed, the remaining Big Rat is also ended. Of the other three rats, two are badly wounded, the other only slightly, as is Lord Frazzle again.

GM: But you can't see him!

GM: No need for Memory 100- or is there, see above.

The enemies are almost defeated already...

Next up Freggo and then Velani...

 

[Blutspitze]

Freggo, now somewhat saddened by the lack of targets, decides to lead an assault into the fog, trying to take down one of the rats.

[sblock=Actions]Move to L4, Charge rat #4 by going to G5[/sblock]

OOC: I forgot my -5 for lack of perception. Decisive miss.

 

[Thanee]

OOC: I don't think invisibility is removed when you are hit. It is correct, that close and area attacks ignore any kind of concealment (they are not really targeted, like melee and ranged attacks are, but just hit everything in the area).

 

[larryfinnjr]

Velani

While Frazzle and the rats reel from the assault, Ah-shahran directs a low appeal at his allies: "Now that I've gotten their attention, backup would be nice!"

"Backup? Seriously, old man? You're a one-deva-wrecking-crew! I hope I have half the energy you seem to have when I'm your age...."

"Alright, Frapple, where are you???"

Velani saunters into the room like she owns the place, heading right up the center aisle where she had originally seen the Mystery Gnome not moments before as the doors opened. She rushes headlong into the mist and blackness in an attempt to pin him down....

OOC: Move to J6 Charge to F6 in the hopes Frazzle is still in E6, MBA, 21 vs. AC... if he's there and that's not enough, Free action for Heroic Effort for +4 hit Free: Holy Smite - 5 addl radiant dmg and prone AP: Valiant Strike, miss Minor: Defender Aura Prepared interrupt: Will use Guardian's Counter if circumstances permit (ally w/in 2 squares of me is hit by an attack, but ally must be target of Frazzle's attack, not a rat)

GM: Moved you to H5 otherwise the Rat would have had an OA.

GM: Pelor Bonus +1 on something or a Free Minor Action, some small boon...

The swaggering Velani rushes forward and connects, with something- a satisfyingly squeaky "oof" comes from the space before her, followed by the slap of the Gnome's body as Frazzle is knocked Prone.

The ex-Guardswoman can hear the Gnome still, trying to regain his feet.

Alas her Valiant Strike is way off target...

[Goonalan]

Rat #4

The large rodent is keen to stay where is although... first things first, it attempts to sink its teeth into Freggo's leg.

Alas the creature is too hasty, it shuffles backwards- still under the pew, but out of the reach of the terrible spirits.

Rat #5

The second surviving Rat shifts out from beneath its pew, and... transforms into a lurking bearded human dressed in leather armour and clutching a short sword in its hand- the beast grins at Velani... then waits.

Rat #6

The third rodent is swift to follow, it too transmutes as it emerges from beneath yet another pew, yet another scruffy, dirty looking human.

Through his gap-teeth the fiend joins its companion in grinning at Velani.

Flanking the pair attack, short swords hacking at Velani.

GM: Bloody hell- my dice.

The pair cringe as Ah-shahran's spirits tear and claw at their forms, they are both marked by Velani- who grins back at the now somewhat nervous-looking lycanthropes.

Both from his poisoned Battleaxe.

The first shatters bone, the second shatters the beast- which flops to the floor like so much dead meat... The war is being won.

Next up Lord Frazzle...

 

[Goonalan]

Lord Frazzle

The Gnome suddenly reappears, pointedly discards his implements of power, and with his best puppy dog eyes fixes his gaze on Velani.

"I give up! IGIVEUP! I don't wanna die- let me get out of the zone... you can kill these mongrels..."

Lord Frazzle, now perhaps demoted to just Frazzle, indicates the Wererat and the Rat.

"Please! I'm begging you- you can't let me die down here in the crypt, like an animal- I'm begging you? Look into your heart! Please... Like a dumb animal, down here in the crypt- I'm begging you. Look into your heart!"

And last, but by no means least- in his squeakiest of voices.

"I'm praying to you!"

It seems Frazzle wants out, and specifically to be allowed out of the zone, you figure that if he remains in the zone then he will die- such is the state of his health...

Velani is being asked here, others can comment (of course), but Velani has the Gnome locked down with her Defender's Aura and Righteous Radiance.

Regardless the Rat and the Wererat are going to fight on- to the death, they're ferocious and certainly more committed to the cause then the fumbling Gnome.

Velani?
