The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter II

[hippocrachus]

Remembering the large role he played in slaying Simon, and the fact that he casually looted his body of a certain key, Calenthang feels a large part of Ssirine's aggression may be directed at him. He quickly second-guesses who the attended target of the spell is and launches at Ssirine, sword in hand.

[Brother Shatterstone]

Mosslime: Finhead Saurial/Male

[Seonaid]

Just before the woman metamorphizes, Chastity gasps out, "No!" [And I will wait to see what she does before I post my action.]

 

[Verbatim]

OOC: Back all, and as usual wow..I go away for a little while and we seem to be neck deep in the thick of things again... Majin, what part of MD do you live in, as we were in Pasadena for the weekend.

IC:

As wealth poured from the bag in a seemingly endless stream, Ayden wondered how many other schemes the Mayor had pulled before coming to Orchard Meadows.

~I have not seen this much coin since leaving to serve you Uncle...~

As Andreas probed the bag for further contents, Ayden stared blankly at the coins until the sharp shrill of Drogo's whistle caught everyone's attention.

As they rushed off, Ayden began scooping all the items back into the bag as fast as he could, lest anyone come behind and take their evidence away from them in the confusion.

As soon as he finished, Ayden began climbing the stairs to see what the others had found.

Actions: Approach and come in when DM says I am there, as I am going to assume it was after Ssirine change.

 

[Majin]

Ayden approaches, hearing the commotion as Calenthang circles around the bed to get at this new creature in front of him. He swings but misses by mere inches as Ssirine shifts quickly in the water at her feet. The way she moves it appears as if she has almost become a part of it, or the water is an extention of herself, you can't tell. Ssirine finishes her spell and focuses her eyes on Chastity. Chastity feels a slight tugging at her mind, and for a moment wonders why she was thinking of attacking Ssirine, a good friend. She then shakes the thought from her head and easily pushes it from her mind. Ssirine is kept busy dodging yet another of Calenthang's blows as he tries to take advantage of her concentration being elsewhere, on her spells.

Sielwoodan fires an arrow off at the water creature before him. The missle goes straight through Ssirine's head and out the back of it, causing ripples of water to erupt from it. Ssirine gurgles in pain. (4 damage) Drogo finds a place to step in and stabs at Ssirine but misses her as she shifts in the water again.

OOC: Chastity next. Verbatim - Eastern part of Maryland, in Harford County.

 

[Seonaid]

Chastity leaps in and attacks Ssirine. "'ware, friends! She's a tricky one!"

[Attack with greatsword: +5 Melee, 2d6+4 damage, 19-20/x2]

 

[Jarval]

Chastity leaps in and attacks Ssirine. "'ware, friends! She's a tricky one!"

"Oh really? You think so? What ever gives you that idea?" Andreas says irritably. Being attacked so many times in one day is starting to take its toll on his normally good humour.

On seeing the woman start to cast a spell, Andreas decides to respond in kind, launching a magic missile towards whatever is attacking his friends.

 

[Verbatim]

As he reaches the top of the stairs, Ayden stops short when he sees his companions attacking the creature in front of him. Cursing his lack of spells, Ayden clenched the oaken staff in his hands and entered the room preparing to take a swing when an opening presented itself.

OOC: Not sure, but does a quarterstaff count as a "reach" weapon, or is that only with polearms and similar weapons? Either way, Ayden will try to help out the old fashioned way...

 

[Majin]

OOC: It can be used as a double weapon, but it's not classified under reach.

Chastity brings her greatsword down, cleaving the half water, half lizard creature down the middle. Water splashes on everyone in melee range, and a screech erupts from the evil spellcaster. The creature's form quickly brings itself back into place, but it is obvious it's still wounded. (12 damage) Jarval fires a magic missle at Ssirine. It weaves it's way around his companions and strikes her form in a burst of magical pyro. (2 damage) Ayden finds a spot to step in and swings his staff at the creature, becoming splashed with parts of Ssirine himself in the process, but he can feel that he did not connect properly.

In order to get in place to attack Moss circles around quickly to Ssirine in the small cramped room. Surrounded on both sides between Mosslime and Calenthang, Ssirine is unable to dodge Moss's claws. (11 damage)
