Shackled City Adventure Path

Giant #4 falters alittle under Boz's savage attack. The first sword swipe cutting a deep crimson gash across the front of its chest spilling blood like water. The shield bashes into his knee causing him to stumble back just out of the second sword strikes path. As Aldreneth begins attacking #2 the well placed strikes catches the humanoid off guard complety as two cuts appear on its leg just above the knee.

As Slitz lowers from the hols and blasts the unsuspecting giants they begin scraming brifly in agony and quickly turning around to see just what sprayed them. Then as Laguz flails feebly at the giant it just eyes him quizicaly with a half smirk on his face as if he is amused.

#1, seeing the little thing touch him as no threat, steps forward and swings through the enclosed space at the acid spewing lizard, missing both times to Slitz's satisfaction. #3 cuts that mirth short as his forst swing slams right into Slitz sending him spinning in mid-air, and missing the second swing. #2 slams its club down on the greater perceived threat of Aldreneth slaming the mans helmet into his head and missing the second strike.

The savage beating that #4 has taken just seems to piss the creature off as it lifts its club and swats Boz around like a baseball, both hits leaving a visible dent in his armor and rattling his brain.

Badly wounded from the giants attacks, Boz sidesteps the giant in front of him, quickly snatchs a small vial off his belt, and attempts to down while placing his shield between him and the giant.

[sblock]
Boz takes a 5ft step NW putting #4 between him and #3.

Shield Block +1 on #4 (AC 27 for #4)

Draws and attempts to use a Cure Mod potion, which provokes an AoO from #4. #4 gives me soft cover from #3, so no AoO for him! :p
Cure Mod Potion (2d8+3=12)

Vigor [+2 Fast Healing]

Slitz flies up to ceiling and to the west wall, and then chugs the potion down. When finished, he drops the bottle and snickers as it breaks when it hits the floor.

[sblock=Action]Slitz drinks a Cure Moderate Potion (2d8+3=9). Then, free action, dropping the empty bottle onto the floor below.[/sblock]

** Notice **
Changing action to Aerea's post because of some impossible action I did. So, I modified mine and talked with aereas about what actions I can do.

Since the Giants ignore his feeble attacks, Laguz decides to change tactics again. Lessons from the monastery come flooding back to him.

When facing a larger opponent, use his size against him. Tip them off balance, and their own strength can bring them down.

Laguz casts another spell. As he finishes the floor beneath 3 & 4 are suddenly coated with a glossy slippery film.

OOC: Grease, effect is for 7 rounds

The Familiar goes invisible and flies down the western hall, scouting ahead to make sure if more Giants come, we can quickly flee before they arrive.

Aldreneth grimaces as he continues to attack the same Giant as before.

1d20+12=27, 1d8+6=10
1d20+7=20, 1d8+6=11

OOC: Note that AC is still 31; Combat Expertising for 2 again.
 

Seeing an opening present itself #4 takes advantage of it by slamming his club lengthwise into Boz adding another note or ringing to his head. Slitz, feeling deaths cold grip reach for him flies back 15 feet out of the giants immediate reach and drinks a potion after landing on the ground.

As a thick layer of grease coats the floor, and the giants begin to slide, Aldreneth draws two more sizeable gashes into the large mans leg. The giant nearly topples but somehow manages to catch himself before that.

As all of #1's closest targets leave or dissapear it climbs down from the balcony and moves within attacking range of Aldreneth. With a heavy swing his club slams into its target echoeing off the walls of the cave. #2 follows suite with an attack that rams into Aldreneth's side with considerably less force than the first but still leaves a dull echo. The second attack proves quite easy to dodge though.

#3 turns and charges after the recently landed lizard slamming into him club first and xpressing the scaled creature into the wall. #4 just grins at Boz as it lifts its club and slams down twice both times driving it into Boz with a steady clang that makes the littler man's ears pop.The giant worked himself in such a frenzy that he completly forgot about the grease under him and went to move his leg only to have it complety fly out from under him dropping him flat on his @!# prone before Boz with a bewildered look.

Unable to shield himself from the giant, Boz drops his vial and falls to the floor after the giants blow. Badly beaten, he shudders, and then stops moving. Seconds later, he twitchs back into motion, only unconsious.

-18/78​

Seeing the success of his last spell and the beating Alderneth is taking, Laguz casts another spell. This time the greasy slime appears beneath giants #1 & #2

OOC: thanks for the bigger map. there should still be a grease patch on the balcony from his first spell. and can someone link to the OOC, I can't seem to find it.
