The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter VI

[Velmont]

"Bring down the leader!"

Sielwoodan let his first arrow fly, aiming for the leader throat (OOC: using True Strike... I am not sure if a call shot will do anything more, but for the style of it). and quickly take another arrow, firing again at the leader (OOC: Rapid Shot)

 

[kirinke]

Teleri will aim her next arrow at the leader, assuming that the first one hit another grimlock or whatever depending on the roll of the ol' dice.

Now he's a thrice bedamned target. If I live through this I'm going to tie Calenthang's bloody ears in a knot. Hasn't he heard of tactics? Like, let the archers/magic-users wittle down the bad-guys before going in hand-to-hand? she grouses to herself, knowing she probably wouldn't do such a thing, but it was a lovely idea anyway.

She takes aim at what she assumes to be the leader. When she can, she will let the arrow fly to its target.

 

[Majin]

Dunstand throws his knife at his target, hitting the creature's thick neck. The grimlock recoils from the throw, but continues on with a road. (11 damage) Broddy shoots at the grimlock leader, but his bolt misses its mark and shatters as it hits rock farther down the passage. Teleri's arrow hits its mark, striking the leader in the side. (7 damage) It grunts deeply but still keeps coming. Calenthang gets in position off to the side of the wall as the grimlocks run past him.

(For Sielwoodan's task it will require the standard action to cast the spell this round, then the full-round action required to use his rapid shot.) Sielwoodan goes to work chanting his spell for its deadly effect.

The leader runs towards Dunstand swinging its axe with two hands fiercely, but the nimble rogue is able to dodge out of the way of the curving arc of the mighty weapon. All but one of the remaining four grimlocks spread out among the room, taking a swing at other party members. Sielwoodan takes a hit to the shoulder from one, (4 damage) as Broddy and Teleri are luckily able to dodge the blows aimed for them. The last stays on with its leader and manages a hit on Dunstand's leg as he is busy trying to dodge both attacks. (4 damage)

Drogo lets loose with a bullet from his sling at the nearest grimlock, (attacking Dunstand) pinging off the creatures head with a audible *crack* sound, causing the creature to jerk its head to the side alarmingly. (Crit! - 5 damage) Rex meets it at this point, bringing it down and mauling it to death.

Initiative:

Dunstand - 20
Broddy - 19
Teleri - 17
Calenthang - 15
Sielwoodan - 13
Grimlock Leader - 12
Grimlocks (3) - 10
Drogo - 9

 

[hippocrachus]

Happy to see his plan to fruition, Calenthang closes in on the grimlocks from behind, and attacks the leader.
Maybe the girl's loud mouth is a good thing, he thinks to himself with a smirk on his face.

 

[Manzanita]

Drogo Hornblower

"For the Halflings!" he shouts as he drops his sling and readies his spear and sheild. Next round he'll leap into combat, probably against the leader.

 

[kirinke]

Teleri lets fly with another arrow aiming at the nearest ugly-enemy. When she can no longer fire arrows due to proximity, she will resort to sword-work.

 

[Dhes]

As Dunstand feels a sharp pain in his leg, but as he looks down he sees that Rex has already dispatched the offending Grimlock. “Good boy Rex” he sass with a grin. Having only one opponent to worry about, the rogue draws his Rapier and attacks the Leader.
(+4 Melee, Rapier, 1d6+1)

 

[Velmont]

Will finish declared action, trying to do a callshot atthe head with myTrue Strike if it has any more effect than usual.

 

[Majin]

OoC: Mimic, you still with us? I'll give you another day or two to get your action posted before I automate one for you.

 

[Mimic]

ooc: yup still here... have been having a weird week

ic: Broddy lets out a small "eep" as the Morlock's weapons passes over his head, quickly dropping his crossbow he scampers back drawing out his staff to attack the oncoming monster.
