The Reconquista: Part I (Shadows over Istivin)

[Thanee]

Latalya

“I doubt that, really... Guys, use cold-forged weapons, if you can, the cold iron seemed to repel the... thing. Uhm... guys!? Do something! That smell surely is terrible, but my nose is easily the most offended here... well... or Mavic's.”

Latalya lets loose another two magical cold iron arrows upon the creature.


OOC: Attack +13/+8 (-4 cover) Damage 1d8+6 (cold iron, magic).

 

[Scotley]

Morley Human Ranger

Seeing that arrows don't split the creature into more creatures as he feared, Morley pulls his bow and looses an arrow of cold forged iron on the elf's advice.

OOC: Needless to say, Morley's bow is magical.

 

[Branding Opportunity]

Seeing that arrows don't split the creature into more creatures as he feared, Morley pulls his bow and looses an arrow of cold forged iron on the elf's advice.

OOC: Needless to say, Morley's bow is magical.

OOC: Morley's bow may be magical, but he also is nauseated for the next two rounds and only gets to take one move action per round. Sorry.

 

[Scotley]

OOC: Sorry, should have read nauseated before I posted, I was thinking it was only a penalty. That's what you get when you assume. Anyway, here is his revised actions.

Morley shrinks back from the burning of the acid and the terrible smell. The iron rations he ate this morning are soon added to the aweful sludge that is this creature's lair. He draws his bow, but is unable to fire as he clutches at his stomach. He struggles to fend off the creature's attacks as best he can and tries to pull himself together.

 

[James Heard]

Eshanna and Mavic scowl in unison, look at each other with a similar green look, and commence vomiting.

Foul Play, Round 2

Reivik fumbles Bar from his back as he fights to avoid retching into his helmet. (OOC: move action; Reivik will be nauseated for one more round)

(OOC: Beau will be nauseated for 1 more round.)

Eshanna and Mavic scowl in unison, look at each other with a similar green look, and commence vomiting. As the creature has not bothered, the fire sphere continues burning over the creature, unable to effect it. (OOC: Eshanna will nauseated for 3 more rounds; Mavic will no longer be nauseated next round)

“I have a lot of arrows, but that is it. Blech ...spew I am not really able to do much, can you nice people magically Blech ...spew make him go poof?” (OOC: George will be nauseated for 2 more rounds)

The creature’s acidic tendrils continue thrashing around wildly, striking out against anything within its reach. The pseudopod once again makes a lightening strike against Morley, hitting him squarely in the chest and nearly knocking him off his feet.

COMBAT MAP

 

[Hypersmurf]

(OOC: move action; Reivik will be nauseated for one more round)

OOC: And since I have no move actions to take this round, I'll just feel sorry for myself in the corner until next round /OOC

Reivik hunches up against the wall to allow Latalya a better shot, cursing the searing tendrils and trying to get his stomach under control...

 

[Ranger Rick]

Having just normal arrows and no cold steel weaponary, George walks away from the beast and gets out of the range of the creatures attack.

OOC Can Latalya allow me to pluck arrows from her quiver?

 

[Scotley]

Morley Human Ranger

Staggered by the pain of the attack and the nausea, Morley can do little, but stuggle to ready his bow. He will have revenge on this disgusting creature. He starts to bring his stomach back under control and gets his bow into position.

 

[James Heard]

While Eshanna remained wan and unhappily propped up upon her knees, spewing the stew from last night Mavic composed himself and smiled thinly.

"Aye, ye'er a beauty aright, awash yea yourself!" shouted Mavic, still hunched over from his ordeal. He waggled his fingers while murmuring the arcane fanceries needed for the summoning, until a small stream of water jerked itself out of his small pouch and fled away from him into the room with the creature. More and more it flowed, until it finally coalesced into a towering creature of purest, malevolent looking water.

OOC: Casting Summon Monster VI for a Large Water Elemental and placing it either in between Morley and the creature or beside Morley and the creature. Basically somewhere where the thing can pick on something it's own size and maybe protect Morley.
