The Psionicle, Part IV

[Creamsteak]

OOC: Do we roll initiative with a 10 or a 20? Do we use some kind of dice-bot? Where do I access it? I rolled on my desk, this is what I recieved

Initiative (d10): 4 + 2 = 6
Initiative (d20): 14 + 2 = 16

Animus will take advantage of his current obscurity. He will not risk being spotted yet.

OOC: I forgot to log in to Animus, I will try to remember from now on.

 

[Jarval]

Initiative: 15 + 7 = 22

Unslinging the gun and passing it to Shardorn, Jansson draws his sword and charges Jirlai.

Attacking with MW Shortsword +8 to hit, AC 18 (taking into account the charge mods).

 

[dkoz]

Init: 6 + 2 = 8

Desimus holds any actions. He keeps his eyes on the fight, but at the first sign of trouble he will cast Mage Hand on the staff and move it 15ft into the air and hopefully out of reach.

 

[Dalamar]

OOC: Init 3+2=5

Syld keeps a close eye to the duel, if he sees anybody trying to cheat he manifests Astral Construct I with 'Additional Attacks'.

 

[Hand of Vecna]

OOC: Gnomeworks, did you roll Nathan's Move Silently check, to see if he could move quietly (and invisibly) bhind Jirlai?

 

[GnomeWorks]

Jansson vs. Jirlai

First - Hand, yes I did. I'm not going to tell you what you got, though. Your job to judge what you got, and act accordingly...

creamsteak - we use d20 for initiative.

---

Initiatives...
Jansson - 22
Jirlai and Animus - 16
Desimus - 8
Syld - 5
Nathan - Unknown

Jansson takes the straight-forward approach and charges Jirlai.

Jansson gets a 10, and +8 is 18, which is a hit. Jansson deals 6 points of damage to Jirlai.


Jirlai grimaces as the halfling's sword slides into him. He gestures with his hand and speaks a simple phrase, and three glowing shards of ice fly forth from his fingertips (Magic Missile, for those of the magical persuasion among the party who would recognize it) and slam into Jansson with a shower of red and purple sparks.

Jirlai gets a 24 for overcoming Jansson's SR, more than enough. His spell deals 9 points of damage to Jansson.

Animus continues to hide, staying out of view and observing the confrontation.


Desimus and Syld observe the battle, readying themselves if Jirlai should go against his word.


Nathan remains invisible, and it appears that Jirlai has not seen or heard him. He has managed to maneuver around Jirlai and is currently standing behind the rock upon which Jirlai had been sitting (if you wanted to be somewhere else, just say so, but I assumed that you were aiming to get behind Jirlai).

---

That's the first round. Jirlai has suffered 6 points, and Jansson has suffered 9, two points of which count as subdual damage.

 

[Animus Abdicerer]

Animus is "accidently" manifesting compression durring this round. "Accidently," as in that I (the player) did start it, but as far as my character is concerned it happened spontaneously.

OOC: I will use orange for my "mental" conversations with myself if that color is not already used for something else.

"What is this feeling... this tingling in my head?"

"This has happened before... but what does it do? Is this more of the suffering I have to take because I did something wrong? Why is this always happening to me!"

Animus Abdicer Manifesting Compression
Note that my skin turns bluish and my eyes whiten when manifesting.

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

Sahgrim looks how his partner is not faring too well, and prepares to attack Jirlai if necessary...

Initiative: 16+2=18

(Sahgrim still has his bow out and his crossbow with an arrow, but he won't use it to attack yet, he readies his action so if Jirlai spots Nathan though, he will fire at Jirlai if he tries to reclaim his staff or harm Nathan)

 

[Jarval]

Jansson yelps as Jirlai's magic hits him. He swings again at the mage, hoping to distract him from his spellcasting.


Did I get an Attack of Opportunity against Jirlai when he cast Magic Missile?

 

[Zhure]

Osius

Initiative = 5+2 (dex) = 7

Oops, forgot to chime in yesterday.

Osius stands ready with morningstar in hand and if things go bad, he will manifest Burst and try to run in and help. There's not much else he can do.
