[Sealed Lands] The City of Taleas

[Kalanyr]

OOC - Apology for the extra 24 hours wait, I got hit with some extra assessment I had to deal with (bleah).

Once more the goblin mutters and waves his hands, but this time as the shadows pull around him, they wrap and he seems to grow taller and more fearsome even as he gestures dramatically. Aerick:

Spoiler

You feel a shadowy compulsion come over you but you shake it off. Will Save Result 20 vs Some DC (Success)

Dekiran

Spoiler

This time working out the spell takes a good deal of thought but you deduce its a Charm Person spell (Spellcraft Result 16 vs DC 16)

Garen backs away from Aerick defensively keeping his shield in position and backing away 40'.

Once more Dekiran, Argus and the Orc standby.

(I assume that Aerick will close again since I can't see a ranged weapon on his sheet)

Aerick closes the gap between himself and Garen, which invites an attack from the long halberd of his foe, but Aerick's chainshirt absorbs the force of the blow only its magical reinforcement enables it to deflect the heavy blow (Attack 18 vs AC 19) . Aerick manages to close and swings his axe at Garen, but the platemail clad warrior catches the blow on his shield turning it harmlessly aside (Attack 13 vs AC something).

Haragaos casts his spell but the Guardsman seems to shake off his certainty and fight on (Will Save 22 vs DC 16 Success).

(Since its getting very late for me from this updates the timer will be only 18 hours this time, but after that it will return to 24 (the adjustment will move it to early night instead of almost midnight for me)

 

[ferretguy]

OOC: yer right on that Kalanyr...Aerick likes things up close and personal...Bows are for civilized peoples!

Knowing that only by keeping on the offensive will he win this battle, Aerick continues to attack with all his strength hoping to bash through the well armored foe.

 

[Kalanyr]

The goblin stands by watching intently and his gaze flickers to Haragaos, in what seems to be a mixture of glee and respect.

Garen once more thrusts his halberd forward, this time battering past Aerick's defences, and landing a blow ( Attack 23 vs AC 19 Hit) that inflicts a small wound on the rugged barbarian (5 HP damage).

All others look on watching and waiting.

Aerick once more launches his attack, but again it is caught on his oponnent's shield and driven aside. (Attack 13 vs AC Unknown).

OOC: 24 hour timer now resumes.

Damage:
Aerick (40/45)

 

[Serpenteye]

ooc: In the same round as he identified the

Spoiler

Charm Person

spell:

Dekiran sneers in contempt, seeing the rules of honourable duelling flouted by both sides. He says, half to himself, "So this is the way you want to play...", and casts Ray of Enfeeblement on the guard.

 

[ferretguy]

For one in plate he does move fast... First blood to you my foe! But the last is all that counts!
Aerick continues the attack ignoring the minor cut upon his chest.

OOC: full attack +8

 

[Kalanyr]

The goblin stares intently at Aerick as the battle rages on. Aerick:

Spoiler

You are filled with feelings of friendship for the creature as if he was your lifelong friend. But apart from that all else is fine, you can move and speak as you choose etc. ( Will Save 6 vs DC 13)

.

Galen halts and seemingly makes no movement.

Dekiran unleashes his spell on the warrior and a ray of sickly green light springs from his hand striking the guard (Touch Attack 13 vs Touch AC 12 Hit, 7 points of Strength penalty inflicted. ) who seems to slump in his armour barely able to move.

At this point Garen makes his first deliberate noise since he appeared yelling that he surrenders.

The goblin shouts out that he acknowledges defeat and moves towards Aerick. (Using his action for next round)

OOC - Timer starts again, if you want to continue combat, otherwise feel free to say as you will.

 

[ferretguy]

Sheathing his axe into his back sling, Aerick walks over to the armoured knight lending his hand to help him stand. Well fought good Sirahh, perhaps some other time we could have a longer test of arms.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Argus nods in approval of Aerick's victory.

"Well done, lad," he says encouragingly.

 

[Serpenteye]

"You did well, and you would doubtless have won even if the duel had been fair.
You should be aware, though, that the spells you were targeted with were what is commonly known as Charm Person spells. Any feeling of friendship or affection you may be feeling towards the Goblin Sorcerer are merely the product of a compelling spell, a grave violation of your integrity."

 

[Kalanyr]

The goblin arrives and nods at Aerick

"You have won the duel and may ask of me three questions, as agreed."

To Haragaos
"I did not expect you to raise the stakes as you did, you should be careful though, when you target a champion not your own, you allow the otherside to do so, and remove the informal forbidance on not attacking a participant. I tell you this out of respect for your quick grasp of the rules. "

To Dekiran
"Impressive magic you wield, for a human. "

After Dekiran's accusation
"Indeed they were, after your priest allowed hostile spells, it seemed to be the most effective method, but the barbarian has shown impressive mental fortitude and resisted my casting of the spell. "
