The Hunt for the Blue Palace (Yoon Suin/Troika!)

[Ancalagon]

Miu takes out his knife and throws it at the creature who attacked Subötaï. Then braces himself, holding up his shield, in case the two creatures he previously attacked decide to pounce on him.

Note that firing into melee in Troika is risky, you risk hitting your ally. Are you still willing to do so or do or do you want to switch?

@Ancalagon Ya, I'll switch then.

Seeing the two creatures recoil, Miu quickly advances towards them. He raises his shield, pushes back the left creature, and swipes at the right one with his staff.

Vs Miu attack: 2D6+5 = [6, 2]+5 = 13
1D6 = [2] = 2


@tuffghost12 please give me an opposed roll for your attack.

I will go on the offensive. Going to slash one of the creatures attacking one of the others
_: 2D6+6 = [5, 6]+6 = 17
_: 1D6 = [6] = 6

8 damage if I hit something

Vs Miu attack: 2D6+5 = [6, 2]+5 = 13

@tuffghost12 please give me an opposed roll for your attack.

Opposed Roll: 2D6+5 = [4, 1]+5 = 10

Uh oh.

 

[Ancalagon]

Miu stepped in to bash one of the yellow monsters, but recoiled as its clever knife work resulted in a jab in the gut. Thankfully, the dull blade did a poor job vs the padded coat, and Miu took only 2 points of damage.

 

[Ancalagon]

Opposed roll to Frog Froth attack: 2D6+5 = [3, 3]+5 = 11
1D6 = [6] = 6


Taking half a step forward, Frog Froth struck the strange monster between the eyes, the kukri slashing through the carapace. The being shrieked, jumped back and fell over, dead.

End of Round 1!
Ooc: will post a recap and the start of round 2 later tonight.

 

[wingilbear]

How many attackers can I see? What is the nearby terrain like?

 

[Ancalagon]

End of round 1:
2 Ophilones with 4 dmg each
1 Ophilone with 6 dmg
2 uninjured Ophilones
1 dead ophilone

PC
Miu: 2 dmg

 

[Ancalagon]

Beginning of round 2. No one is surprised anymore, everyone can act. (@Fradak @FitzTheRuke you can act now!)

Pinpehlu, you are holding one of the ophilone's stabbing arm as you are about to hit it with your hook again, but with a loud pop creature yanks itself free by leaving its arm behind. You are now holding a long skinny arm with a knife - Said arm is still trying to harm you, what do you do?

@wingilbear You are in a small clearing near the Red Road. The party is roughly arranged as per the map. There are 4 ophilones - those strange ovoid spiders - as well as one stabbing arm. One Ophilone has died at your blade, and another is fleeing. I should mention that slugmen can look in multiple directions at once, it is trivial for you to look behind you while keeping an eye on your foes...
