[QUOTE="Aereas, post: 3091444, member: 31008"] The giants dont seem to learn from the last explosive ball of magic and when the second one erupts at thier feet not a one makes even the slightest move to avoid it until it is far too late. A smoldering #2 hinches over starting to feel the weight of the attacks but otherwise manages to keep his feet beneath him. As Elsa follows up with a fiery display of her own the only giant to seems aware enough of the attack to avoid any of it is the one who has done almost nothing this whole fight, #1. The rest just continue to stand there, as the magical flames burn at thier skin, shouting out in pain, causing #2 to actualy slump to his knee. As the shadow moves over toward #4 and reaches into its chest the giant hesitates for a moment in his actions before firmly gripping his club ready to continue the fight. As Slitz slams his elbow into the slouching giants toe it is all the creature can do to avoid yelling out in pain and anger. Though the rage shows clearly in his eyes. Due to the bad lighting in the area Aldreneth doesn't realize the giant slouched down leaning alittle further back and so his attacks fall short of thier target. Boz rushes straight for the mortaly wounded giant and stabs out at the large form. Unfortunatly for him though the large object he just struck was the giants club and not the giant itself (missed due to darkness). Giant #1 continues to stand there like a statue acting only to defend himself while #4 gives up on bringing his pal back into the fight and moves to join the fight bby swinging his club at Aldreneth, but both attacks bounce harmlessly off his armor. #2, having seen too much of the battle, moves away and seeks an escape route. OOC: I'm seeing alot of talk in OOC, but not in character. If you want to plan strategies with tactics and such you need to speak it in character otherwise there just thoughts and, as no one has detect thoughts active, no one else knows what your offering or want to do. If players want to add thier characters thoughts to the game then it should be included in an in game post but noted as thought (italics is a common way to indicate thoughts in a post). Otherwise, as Boz said, no one is saying anything and so characters don't know what other characters wants done. Elsa's note to Laguz about not wanting to respond and give her position away was fine (just so the player knew he wasn't being ignored) but shouldn't have contained an answer to his question as unless Elsa answered he wouldn't have any way of knowing. While its only a minor bit this still does lead to player knowledge being used in the game. Slitz diddn't need to tumble through the mantis's space but he did need to tumble through the giants threatened area. At the time he was asking about the DC I forgot about him possesing spring attack. [url=http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d192/aereas/VapraksVoiceBattle.jpg]Battle map[/url] [/QUOTE]
