Defense of the Manor

The Wall
Nijel 20
Pyrex 14
Kat 13
Alban 12
Ewan 12
Roak 10
Padraig 7

Reacting quickly to the threat of the ladders, Nijel springs into action and manages to push away the first two ladders in a burst of movement. Answering the crossbowmen with his own ranged attacked, Aidan throws a sizzling ball of acid at his opponets neatly catching three and causing great screams of agony. Kat meanwhile begins to stalk the wall with her two short swords awaiting an opponet to gain the wall. Trying to pick off one of the Ogiers ascending a rope, Ewan lets fly with several arrows but manages to miss his opponet....those who know the deadly archer can imagine the curses his is uttering at the failure of his arrows to hit...Cairnwalker manages to toppel one ladder as he follows Nijels move...while waiting for opponets to reach the wall. Padraig meanwhile steps to the ropes and looks over the wall briefly exposing his upper torso and head. As he pulls back from the wall, screams can be heard from below..

Just at the party readies themselve two ogiers gain the wall and three more ladders appear.

Any attacks of opportunity?

Nijel Bladesong, AC20/FF20/T10 HP62/62 +11to hit,+5 dam; F+9,R+3,W+6

Nijel boldly steps up to the first ogier to attain the wall and viciously assaults it with his axe! He is trying to bottle up the other ogiers behind this one until more help arrives. NIjel lands a mighty blow, and his axe sinks deep into the ogier's chest!

"Take that, you Foul Hellspawn!

Attack: Battleaxe, +11 to hit= 21, damage= 13!

Katherine Brightlaw (AC: 24; HP 34/34)

Seeing her friend engaging the Ogres, Katherine quickly slides into a flanking position and attacks. She swings Knight in an attempt to hamstring the Ogre but misses. Her follow through with Knave is vicious but also misses as Kat's lead foot hits the gore left by Nijels tearing axe attack and she ends up on her arse, desperately fending off the attacks of the other Ogre as she attempts to stand.

A weakly uttered "Oh ballocks!" makes it to Nijel's ears as she falls.

[sblock=For JA]Natural 01 on the second attack - I figured losing her attack next round due to slipping was appropriate. Feel free to impose a different consequence if you wish and I'll adjust this post to reflect it.[/sblock]

Ewan Driscoll, HP 45 / 49 AC 16

"I am trying to help, Nijel. I would just be in the way down there. My bow is far more effective than any attempts I would make at melee."

Ewan sights in on the Ogres atop the wall Starting nearest Nijel and lets fly.

[sblock=OOC]Attacks on Ogres (1d20+6=19, 1d20+6=21, 1d20+1=8) should be 2 hits.
Damage on Ogre (1d8+7=12, 1d8+7=11)

Andor and Bertrand

The altar is quite as the two debate what to do next...you get no sense of feeling other than the power that was stirring in response to your earlier attempt. The power is there but is difficult to reach and call upon..........

 

[Neurotic]

Andor Anande de Andrade

I'll try once more, Alban. Please stay a moment more, I might need help during or after this try. I promise that if I fail we go as fast as possible to aid the defenders.

Or, if you really feel you should go, find one of underpriests and send him my way. I'd like you to stay however.

Not waiting for response, Andor turns back toward the altar calling upon Guidance of Pelor and focusing his considerable will aided by Resistance into the task.

OOC: Hehe, we posted at almost same time, didn't see JA's post before. Action stands however, Andor tries again.

Andor and Alban

Trying once more the power begins to stir...............

Andor i need three saves will at dc 26....fort at dc 28 and another will at dc 30

alban I need three saves will at dc 20...fort at dc 22 and another will at dc 24.....

OOC: Uargh! I asked for it...

Will checks DC 26 (1d20+8=24, 1d20+8=28 (CRIT!), 1d20+8=17 (maybe crit covers this?)

Fort DC 28(1d20+8=12); Will DC 30 (1d20+9=13)

OOC2: Terrible rolls, two 4s in a row, but then again 16, 20 and 9 on first three, invisible castle is just wrong today
OOC3: spent guidance on the last will roll, didn't help much. Andor couldn't make it except with another +1 (lets say from prayer) and critical success ...

 

[Rhun]

Roak too moves to engage the ogiers, but like Kat finds himself sliding in the gore from Nijel's assault upon the lead brute.
