The Kolloseaum: Team Gil's Conscience (DM: Iron Sky, Judge: Luinnar)

[Iron Sky]

Match One: The Sandy Arena, Round 4

The spawn all dead, the Burrower is left alone. That doesn't make it much less dangerous. Despite being burned by Kauldron's holy sanction, it burrows up near Lerrick and Brenwar, biting ineffectually at Lerrick but lashing with its stinging tail and injecting Brenwar with burning poison.

[sblock=Enemy Actions]Burrower: Burrow Up: Burrow down(Close burst 1, -2 mark, -2 Enfeeble): <Take 7 radiant + 3 vulnerable = 10 Radiant from Kauldron's Divine Challenge 11 vs Brenwar's 18 Fort, miss, Stealth 26, Burrow Up(Close burst 1, -2 mark, -2 Enfeeble, +2 CA): Nat1 vs Brenwar, 17 vs Lerrick's 18 Fort, miss. Tail Lash(Reach 2, -2 mark, -2 Enfeeble): : 19 vs Brenwar's 19 Ref, hit, 7 damage and 5 ongoing poison damage(save ends). Bite(Reach 2, -2 Enfeeble, -2 mark): Nat1 vs Lerrick.[/sblock]

Burning Sands(Aura 1): The zone is difficult terrain and any creature that enters or starts its turn in the aura takes 5 fire damage. The damage from the auras stacks. Burrower Surprise: The burrower does +1d8 damage when it has CA. Half-burrowed: The burrower is immune to forced movement.

Effect Key: location, hp/max hp, damage related, TenT or TsnT, conditional, save ends, encounter[/sblock]

[sblock=Terrain]Walls: The walls out of the arena are 30 feet tall sheer stone Athletics (Climb) DC 25 if you want to try to escape into the stands for some reason.
Pillars: The pillars in the center are the same DC and can provide cover.

Stairs: The stairs are all difficult terrain. The northern podium area is one square above the rest of the arena. [/sblock]

[sblock=Appease the Crowd]*As a minor action, a PC may make a skill check to wow the crowd. If they succeed at the check, they gain +2 to their next d20 roll if they beat the DC, plus +2 per 5 by which they beat the DC. If the check is failed, the PC takes a -2 penalty to their next d20 roll, -2 more per 5 by which they miss the DC.

I.E, if the DC is 15, 1-5 would be -6, 6-10 would be -4, 11-14 would be -2, 15-19 would be +2, etc.

*All skill DCs will start at 15 and each individual skill's DC goes up by 2 per time the skill is used as the crowd gets more jaded. The DCs go up at the end of the round in which they are used. The DCs do not drop between arena rounds.

*Any skill can be used, as long as the player can provide relevant character action to back up the roll.

Current Skill DCs:
Acrobatics: 19
Religion: 19
All: 17[/sblock]

 

[Rapida]

At this point Brenwar's armor is giving off a slight pink glow (ooc: so many turns in so many fiery auras), and as the poisonous stinger connects he chokes back a bit of bile. However, all his time fighting the beast has taught him its rhythms. He yells to the crowd, "Watch and learn, now it goes for the lunge" he begins to move before the beast has started its forward momentum.
The creature seems confused as the paladin is no longer where he should be, the confusion is ended when a shield is smashed into the side of its head and the crowd erupts in cheers. As the holy symbol on the shield connects with the beast it flashes in a divine light, leaving the creature dazed and trying to shake off the ethereal silver owl that flits about its head. Finally, getting a moment to rest Brenwar backs away from the inferno coming off the creature. He shakes off the poison but no longer seems to be as fortified with divine power.

[CaBaNa]

Standing near Martelai still, Gil continuously peaked around the pillar at Lerrick, when the Burrower erupted near her in the sand Gil reacted quickly HEY! GET AWAY FROM THERE! the words carried with magic fueled power and wrapped themselves around Lerrick, then blasting thunderously toward the worm. The booming sound still echoed around Lerrick, acting as a shield against oncoming attack, and the blast washed over the worm with little effect. Gil continued to hold out the vial of liquid in offer to Martelai.

[CaBaNa]

I know! Isn't she awesome? Gil pauses sheepishly upon blurting, I mean, what I meant was, we should have more fun the next couple rounds! I haven't even been scratched yet.

 

[MetaVoid]

Cyr stands still in his place. Using temporary vulnerability of the beast he blasts it with rays of radiance, one ray going for each part of the body. With so many places to move, the beast has no chance to avoid deadly ray.

[Luinnar]

I love bloodsports, don't you Amanda dear? you hear a older human man in the stands saying to the elven women next to him. I judge this to be quite satisfactory. Too bad the kids are not here, they would love it. Tarquin Wellington says, turning to a female dwarf next to him.
[sblock=Judge]I'll judge this if you still need a judge [/sblock]

 

[pathfinderq1]

Joy continued to sing, though the eerie keening tone seemed to have faded. Her voice rang out, insulting the worm in the most demeaning terms- appealing to the lowest common denominator of the arena's crowd. Despite her words, the burrower still kept its attention on the plate armored goblin knight.

Artemis can't help but smile at Gil's comments. He moves away from the burrower worm, his star powered eldritch blasts mildly injuring the beast.
