The Four Lands - Southern Operatives

[Neurotic]

Andor Anande de Andrade

OOC: I would take intuitive strike if by 'martial' you refer to feats useful in combat. If not, probably combat expertise (prefered), rapid reload or improved init (I cannot turn undead or dismiss demons if I'm last in the round). I don't like Mounted Combat as Andor rides because he has to. He is not combat charger.

Staying his spell Andor drops his shield to a boy behind him and readies his crossbow. He will shoot Ogier that remains standing after this round or orcs if none remain.

OOC: Did I miss a map somewhere?

 

[Dracomeander]

Ewan notes the orcs closing on he and the lads and scoots back to Aidan's northwest flank, firing at the nearest orc as he does so.

[sblock=OOC]I think you are forgetting Messenger, the bow you gave Ewan, grants him Shot on the Run. Ewan does not have to stop to fire the bow. He's just limited to 30 ft of movement while he fires.

Also, didn't the lads get out of the trees? I'm not sure I'm understanding the positioning on the map.

Thanks for the gift. Would Swift Hunter from Complete Scoundrel be allowed as a martial feat for Ewan? If not, he will take Dodge.

Point Blank Shot at the orc nearest the lads. (1d20+8=19)
Damage on orc (1d8+4+1d6=14)

OOC: Alban would like to take Cleave as his martial feat. I'll get an action up in a bit.

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Okay, looks like my last action hasn't been addressed as yet, so I'll just add some map coordinates.

Shouting to the Paladin, "I've got him Nijel." Wheeling his mount from the fallen Ogre Magi, Alban charges again (to Q9 to attack the Ogre at O9) giving a powerful swing of Saint's Kiss (1d20+9=17) and the longaxe once more bites (1d12+14=25) deep.

Nijel Bladesong, Paladin of Light 24/49 HP AC20

Shouting to the Paladin, "I've got him Nijel." Wheeling his mount from the fallen Ogre Magi, Alban charges again (to Q9 to attack the Ogre at O9) giving a powerful swing of Saint's Kiss (1d20+9=17) and the longaxe once more bites (1d12+14=25) deep.

"Thank you, Father Alban! Saint's Kiss did just the trick!"

Aidan moves forward breaking free of the skirmish line then wheels his horse and lets fly with his blast stiking one of the ogiers enganging Nijel and Roak. Kat meanwhile moves her great black horse ahead slighlty and lifts her hand into the air. Just moments after the beast is struck by Aidan's blast it begins to shrink and Nijel and Roak are now facing a man sized opponet. As the combat swirls around Padraig he maintains his postion of support to the front line fighters preventing any flanking movement by their opponet. His aura contiues to bolster the strenght of his party. NIjel makes his attack against one of his opponets scoring a solid hit. Once again in a display of skill, Ewan lets fly at one of the closet orcs and neatly places an arrow thru his eye socket casuing the beast to fall. In reply to the Parties attacks the ogiers swing their great clubs. The one at O9 successfuly smacks Roak despite his small size but only does 1 point of damage. Nijel meanwhile is brutally hit by two of the ogiers and takes a devesating 16 points of damage. The remain ogier moves to flank. Roak meanwhile engages an ogier and with a might hit brings draws blood. Charging into the fry, Alban whirls his long axe and neatly decapiates the ogier. The orcs continue to close and will be upon the party next round. Andor supports the party with his crossbow neatly hitting the ogier trying to flank the party.

For Ewan
[sblock]Not everyone stated they were picking up a boy and there were actually three more than the party so some were left behind....I dont have a problem with swift hunter...[/sblock]

Nijel Bladesong, Paladin of Light 18/49 HP AC20

Grimacing in extreme pain as the ogre's great club smashes into his hip, Nijel reaches deep down within himself and finds the will to continue. Since Nijel's initiative falls after some of his friends, he will hold his action for just long enough to see whether they are going to flee or keep on fighting here. Adjusting his initiative downward to the same time as Roak, Nijel will do what Roak does, so he either:

1. hefts his axe around and swings it viciously at the ogre that drew his blood last round. (I'm not sure if it was O9, N10, or N11)
Swinging his axe mightily: 26, and doing 11 hp of damage. http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1450598/

OR

2. He puts spurs to his mount's flanks and gets the Hades out of here. Roak attacked, so Nijel will also.

 

[Scotley]

Alban

Riding in a tight half circle, Alban moves (to N8) and stretches out and swings (1d20+6=11) his longaxe at the Ogre (N10), but his blow falls short this time.

OOC: If N10 is dead, Alban would have ridden on to N9 and swung at N11. Doesn't make much difference since he missed but where he stands at the start of the next round might be important.

 

[Rhun]

Cairnwalker shakes off the latest blow, and bellows a battlecry. "Taste the steel of Gwynedde!" he cries, assaulting two of the ogiers with abandon. Widow's Lament arcs widely through the air; unfortunately, one of the ogiers manages to avoid the strike, but in doing so leaves his companion open. Roak's blade cuts deep into the foe.

Andor heals again

Seeing Nijel hit Andor pauses reloading his crossbow and chants:
"From mist to sun, from wounds to health, Nijel will continue to tread"
Healing from Obscuring mist to Nijel (1d20+5=14, 2d8+4=10)

Shoots Nijel with Cure Moderate wounds (add more to hit if hit from the back), also, add two to hp before this healing because Aura of Vigor goes on initiative and I'm last.
