The Return (The Heros of Mergovie)

Manzanita said:
"OK." Solomon whispers. "Dai, Jraq, we'll all kick it together."

Which of Jraq or Trolm looks bigger? In any case, Solomon will get the others to help him bash down the door.

Jasper pulls his wand of magic missiles free and points it at the doorway, ready to blast whatever is on the other side. "I'm ready." He says quietly.

[sblock]A little search on the guard would have revealed that he had the key ;)[/sblock]

OOC both soldiers are about the same size

Trolm steps up while Jraq draws his bow ready to shoot inside.

Dai, Trolm and Solomon charges at the massive wooden door. (roll 1+3(DC10), 13+3DC10, 17+3+2DC15) The doors crashes down on the weight of the three men. The door gives to a small room with two large doors, 2 small bed camp with soldiers sleeping. The two soldiers are in their chain armor with their weapon on the floor they wake up with all the noise. Their is one door on the back of the room and one on the left wall.

Behind the door facing them, Solomon, Dai and Trolm can hear grunts, shouts "What the &^&*%^% is this" and movement. They can also hear a very low and powerfull grunt behind the left door.

Surprise round since the soldiers were not ready for this.

Initiative
Trolm 21
Dai 13+3
Jasper 15+1
Oculus 9+6
Jraq 12
Solomon 9+2

Trolm quickly regather his wits and charges on the soldiers sleeping in the right bed drawing his sword during the run (roll 21+2;dmg 8) striking the soldier in the chest. The soldier barely waked up crashes back in his bed unconscious.
 

OOC: Yep. Should have searched those guards...

BIC: Solomon will charge and attack the other soldier if he still lives upon his initiative. Once this soldier is dispatched, Solomon will see if the beds can be moved. "We must be ready to defend ourselves, quickly." he hisses.

His idea is to move the bed to give cover for the casters, and perhaps himself, as an archer.
 

Dai mutters a blessing of guidance under his breath as the others rush into the room, following them cautiously while drawing the two kama from beneath his robes.

OOC: Cast Guidance, Move into the room and draw both weapons as part of the move action.
 

Jasper Conrad

Jasper frowns at the sleeping men as the door opens. Should we attack them? But before he has time to consider it, Trolm answers the question. Jasper then follows the soldiers lead, lobbing a missile from his wand at their other opponent.
 

Dai feels a faint surge of energy as he finishes invoking the power of nature.

Jasper steps in the door and with a swift motion of his wrist invoke the projectile of energy. He guides it towards the second soldier. (dmg 4) The projectile crosses the room and hits him in the chest. The soldiers steps back on the impact still half asleep and not fully realising what is happening to him.

Oculus seeing that Solomon is still injured quickly invokes Fharlanghn. His hands starts to glow with energy. He steps towards the warrior and touches him. Solomon feels a hot tingling in his neck as his injury heals (CLW 4+1 Solomon at 25hp)

Before the injured soldier can surrender or talk after receiving the energy missile Jraq let his arrow fly (roll 15;dmg 3) The arrow strikes him in the stomach and he crashes in his bed unconcsious.

Solomon seeing that his two immediate opponents are down rushes towards the left bed. He turns it on the side letting the dying soldier body crashes on the ground. Has his head hits the stone floor Solomon can hear a faint crack as his skull brakes. He then takes the bed and bring it back near the door to cover the wizards.

The sounds and war cry are getting closer from both door. Who ever is behind those doors should reach them soon.

Trolm pushes the soldier out of the bed and difficultly slide it on the floor towards the main door. He then turns it on it's side such that it increases the cover from the smaller central door.

A few second later the smaller front door slams open, the great orc warrior with the yellow plume appears behind it his massive composite bow in hands. Chanting a loud war cry and hainously looking at the group. He notices Oculus partially hidden behind the bed and fires at him. The arrow quickly crosses the room as the string of his bow is released. (roll 27 ;dmg 6) The arrow barely scratches his shoulder, damaging his robe more than anything else. (Oculus at 15). The arrow finishes it's course on the wall behind him.

A Orc surges behind the orcish leader charging at Solomon. But the bed placed between them give the half-orc enough time to react before he can attack (The bed prevented the charge).

Gods protect me, he's huge! With a quick word and an arcane gesture Jasper conjures a glowing ball of fire on top of the orc leader. Then he crouches in the door frame, hoping to get as much protection as possible from it and the nearby bed.

OOC: Cast flaming sphere, DC 16 reflex save to avoid 2d6 damage. Then he moves to the closest location possible where he'll have cover from the orcs. From your description, I think that might mean staying where he is.
 

OOC: I'll assume Solomon didn't have time to ready his bow. A few seconds though, would probably have allowed him to re-ready his axe after moving the bed.

BIC: Solomon mutters a 'thanks' to Oculon for the healing and grips his axe again after the bed is moved into rough position. The sight of the orc leader sets off an odd calm inside him. It is his destiny, he knows, to fight this orc. One at a time, though...

Solomon pulls back his axe and swings it wide, as though to fell a tree. "Kill the others. Leave the leader to me." he growls.

OOC: Solomon has no choice but to first rid himself of the advancing orc. He strikes at it with his axe. +8 1d10+7 AC: 16
 

"'dis is not da place fer yer own personal glory, we fight 'm all together," Dai says, both kama at the ready in his hands he advances upon the rushing orc.

OOC: +8 magical kama 1d6+3 dmg; (masterwork bonus included only cause I don't know what it's bonus is)
 

Dai swiftly moves past Oculus and Trolm and jump (no need to roll jump check)on top of the bed and counter attack the orc who seems surprised by Dai moves. (roll 6+8) The magical Kama strikes the orc in the right ribs but is unable to pierce his thick studded leather armor, continuing his spin he steps down the bed and finishes the spin facing his opponent.

Jasper kneeling behind the bed invokes the ball of fires nearby the large orc archer. (roll Reflex 24) The orc quickly steps aside to dodge the rolling ball of fire who is now located in the door step.

Oculus waiting to see what is hidden behind the large door before using his ray of enfeeblement decides to grab his wand of magic missile and points the large orc. Again a large dart of energy appears in front of him he directs it towards the large barbarian. The large orc barely reacts as the energy bolt strikes him. (dmg 2).

Jraq position himself behind the kneeling Jasper and tries to find an open space between the orc and Solomon. (roll 21-4 for Solomon) the arrow whistles in Solomon's hear as it heads towards the barbarian leader (dmg 7) The large orc turns his body instinctively as the arrow is about to strike him. The arrow ends his course on his left shoulder. The proud warrior barely reacts to the pain.

Solomon taking advantage of Dai's diversion steps on the bed (jump 11+4) and engage the orcs. (roll 12+8+1 for being higher;dmg 1+7) The orc still disoriented by Dai's attack never see Solomon's sword coming. Luckily for him Solomon's hand went slightly off course and instead of hiting the middle of the chest stops in his opponent shoulder. The orc steps back under the shock but quickly comes back to engage Solomon who steps down to take advantage of the bed.

One of the orc on the other side of the door hesitate a few second and decides to jump throught the ball of fire. Holding his falchion above his head he jumps over it. (roll 21) the orc is able to jump over it unarmed. He land on his feat and go provide support to his compagnion fighting Dai and Solomon.

The third orc seeing how his friend easily jumped over the ball of fire doesn't even hesitate and throw himself in the room falchion in hand. (roll 17)Unarmed he heads towards Oculus and Trolm. Trolm armed with his sword steps forward preventing the orc from attacking him.

In a loud bang the large double door burst open. A large humanoid shape emerges of the shadow around 10 ft tall and almost as large as the double door. The large humanoid starts moving towards Solomon behind the injured orc. All recognises an Ogre dressed in the same clothing as the orcs and armed with a huge greataxe. The ogre looks quickly glances around before stopping his look on Jasper kneeling on the ground as he control the flaming sphere. He let a terrifying roar go as he tries to push the other orcs to engage Solomon and Dai.

The group can hear other orcs approaching from the front door growling like beast

Trolm engages the orc facing him (roll 25;crit 13;dmg 6) The soldier is unable to strike at the Orc directly but his ferocious attack are forcing him to move out of position and are quickly tiring him, he won't be able to follow that rythm for very long.

The Orc leader slightly anoyed by the arrow in his shoulder kneels on the ground and grabs an arrow. He quickly aims at Trolm fighting his compagnion and let the arrow goes. (roll 25-2rapidshot-4;dmg 5) the arrow is blocked and slow down by his shield but still seriously scratch the soldiers leg. Not quite happy of his partial succes he reloads and aims a second one (21-2rs-4) but this time Trolm uses his shield effectively and the arrow is deflected against the wall.

Solomon notices that the orc is slightly loosing it, his muscle are pumped and a small amount of saliva starts to run down his mouth as he leaps on top of the bed to engage Solomon (jump 13) (roll 18+1;dmg 13) The blade hits him on the leg, to make things worst the same one that was injured the other day when he felt in the pit. Blood slowly starts to spill from his injury. But holding the pain for himself he continue to fence with his opponent.
