The Darkness That Comes Before [IC]

[Quirhid]

Taneth Aislan (hp 14/14, AC 15 (50% mc), atk +2 m (1d8, 19-20/x2) or +6 r (1d6, x3)

Taneth backs away from the beast (#4). "Ian, can you handle this one?" he asks quickly without waiting for an answer. He turns and starts to cast another spell. [ooc: spell=Scorching Ray, target=#2]

 

[Ferrix]

Donner - hp42/42, ac 20, +13 ride-by (3d6+18)

Giving a quick survey of the situation and seeing Ian and Taneth in control of the two beasts on that side, swings about and charges the one fighting with Folco, the glowing lance bearing down on it.

OOC: he'll go a straight line out past the one folco is fighting strike it as he rides by (lance has 10' reach) and continue on another 15'-20' and then swing-around for the next round.

 

[Thomas Hobbes]

Mahe's staff twirls in his hands as he strikes at the wolf once, twice. If the beast is felled, by his blows or another, he kneels down next to Gespeth and places his hands on the man's bleeding body, and utters one word in Druidic. "Close," he instructs the wound, which begins to heal, slowly at first and then more quickly. "Close!

Full attack or, if it's dead, cast Cure Moderate Wounds. That's my action until such time as I actually get the chance to cast the spell.

[Round 3]

Taneth sends a scorching ray at the wolf hovering over Gespeth. The ray burns the beasts flesh, leaving the area smelling of burst green vegitation. It falls unconscious beside Gespeth. [ooc:hit #2, 13dmg]

Mahe places his hands over Gespeth's neck, ordering his wounds to close. The scent of a summer glade replaces the burnt smells as Gespeth's wounds move to obey. With a sharp intake of breath his eyes open wide. [ooc: cure moderate wounds for 21hp of healing]

Folco and Wolf continue to press their advantage. Folco's sword bites into the creatures flesh, but Wolf fails to find purchase for his jaws. [ooc: hit #1, 6dmg]

Dara charges the creature between Folco and his companion. She slams her sword into its side sending a spray of ichor arching up over it. [ooc:hit #1, 26dmg]

The last wolf standing bites Dara's leg bringing her down beneath its jaws. The green ichor from its mouth drips painfully onto her flesh as it grins before moving in for another bite at her throat. [ooc: hit Dara, 13dmg, #1's trip successful, Dara's fort saved]

Donner pulls Grizzle round to charge. His lance finds its mark toppling the wolf beneath the weight of the movement. [ooc:hit #1, 27dmg]

Ian turns to wait for the webbing to dissipate on the first of the wolves he has trapped.

Nalya too looks around to see what she can do to help. Spotting Taneth's poor mount she moves over and concentrates for a moment. A small pink glow eminates from her hand as she lays it on the beast. [ooc:lesser body adjustment on Sadet for 6hp]

[Quirhid]

Taneth sees the two beast falling. He turns towards one of the bound ones (the one that will be released sooner). A spell starts to form from his casting. [ooc: spell=Melf's Acid Arrow (or Acid Arrow if you prefer it that way), target=the beast which will be released soon]

 

[Ghostknight]

Gespeth - Hp 16/19 AC 17 Init + 1 Atk +2 (1d6, critical x2)

"Thanks Mahe, much appreciated! "

With that Gespeth grabs his staff and starts hitting the unconcious beast next to him repeatedly, to make sure that it never sees consciousness again!

ooc: Coup de grace on the unconscious wolf

 

[Thanee]

Dara Dragondaughter - HP 18/45 AC 10 Atk +10 (2d6+7[+2d6SA], 19-20/x2) - Rage

Seeing the beast dropping to the ground, Dara regains her feet and looks around for other opponents to show up. She slowly moves towards the center of the camp meanwhile (20' move).

OOC: Rage (3rd round).

 

[Serpenteye]

Ian calls out to his companions "This wolf is going to be released from the spell any moment now, join me in despatching it before it can attack us.", indicating wolf #4.

 

[Erekose13]

[Round 4, 5, 6, 7, end]

Taneth moves to a position where he can fire at the wolf as soon as it breaks free from Ian's webbing and begins casting.

Mahe, seeing that Gespeth is okay surveys the battle scene to check who else needs help.

Gespeth thankful for Mahe's healing rubs his neck before picking up his staff to wack the unconscious form. [ooc: immune to crits. hit #2, dmg 6, dead]

Folco and Wolf join the others waiting for Ian's web to dissolve.

Dara moves to the centre of the camp ready for action, her rage seething while she looks for more opponents.

Donner having turned Grizzle around following his very successful charge starts to make his way over to the two bound wolves.

Ian having alerted his companions to the danger already, joins those ready to pounce, just as the wolf escapes from the binding. As it shakes the disolving web free it turns its eyes to the party shouting defiance in its glare. As everyone brings their swords, flaming arrows, and sundry weapons to bear it falls in a green haze of gore and ichor. Its jaws fail to find purchase on any of the assembled companions. Hacked to pieces the wolf lies bloodied on the ground.

A few moments (like 3 rounds) later the other wolf escapes its bindings as well. But like the first those gathered round quickly descend on it, turning it into another green pile of goo.

[ooc:damage recap for the battle
#1 - #4 dead
Dara - 27
Gespeth - 3
Sadet - 0, stable]

 

[Quirhid]

"Sadet!" Taneth cries after the last beast had been slain. He kneels beside the horse and examines its wounds. "You'll be alright, friend. Nothing will disturb us anymore," he whispers to the horses ear. He stays for awhile stroking the horse and speaking to it with calming words.
