The Sceptre of Kings-A Heroic Dwarven Quest

[Uriel]

Elspeth shivers as the cold washes over her, "This is beginning to annoy me," she draw and deep breath, steps across to get a good look at whatever is in the room and targets her breath weapon at it.

OOC:
30' cone of fire
6d10
DC20

Stepping in, Elspeth sees a massive form, perhaps eleven feet tall, a purple Giant in ornate plate armor, a massive Halberd in his hands.
Ogre Mage she thinks briefly, then she spits her firey doom upon him.
<36 HP, he made his save,ack...18 HP damage>

Initiative

Turlough '20', way higher actually...
Terrick 19
Elspeth 13
Ogre Mage 9

OoC:Everyone else will act after this round.
The Ogre Mage stands some 15 feet inside the door and is currently visible.

"Untryn we need you," Eslpeth looks at Turlogh, then at the Ogre. She eyes up his guard with the halbed ready to step foward and keeps her sword out ready to paryy.

OOC:
Move foward & single attack hopefully setting up a flanking opportunity for Trulogh and/or Terrick. Soak AoO if she has to. Expertise set to max.

what up turlough

turlough will try to tumble into the room and withdraw his blades. He has the meanest mug you have ever seen on a gnome. grizzled

 

[silentspace]

OOC: matthewbajda, I'm Turlough you're Terrick! And Elspeth would have to beat his hide and move silent checks to see him!

Seeing the ogre mage, Turlough advances out of the shadows, tumbling around the foul blue beast to end up behind it, and readies a sneak attack for when someone flanks opposite the Trapmaster. Turlough's run through this drill many times with the younguns, and he knows someone will help him set up his sneak attack. If it's that gnomish fellow, he figures it will be twice the fun!

OoC:He is Flat-Footed NOW folks, he has not gone in the Initiative, as per the rules...

OOC: Oh, well then nevermind!

Trapmaster Turlough goes tumbling in, looking to smack the ogremage silly.

 

[Wilphe]

OOC:
Fair enough.
Let's just kill it.

 

[Wilphe]

As Elspeth steps foward she is quite suprised to find the blue skinned beastie caught unawares, but unsure if its some sort of trick she keeps her guard up as she swings at it.

OOC:
Move and attack..
Expertise still at max.

 

[matthewbajda]

oh, yeah

[OCC] - silly me. i want to write terrick, but your name just sounds a bit meaner... you know, gnomes are not known for being mean.

Terrick will attempt to flank on the opposite side as turlough the trapmaster in order to do some tag team double dragon style sneak attack. to do this action of awe and glory, he will first tumble then go for the ole' leg hack. you hear a faintest whisper of, "Bring it..." escape the gnome's lips

 

[Uriel]

Turlough moves in, a small streak of death and lays a mighty *smack* across the Ogre Mage's abdomen <25 HP, including Sneak>.

Terrick moves in and stabs the Giant <13HP including Sneak and Bane>

The Ogre Mage roars in pain as the Giant Bane Sword cuts him deeply, but he stays up.

Thus, it is Elspeth's strike <11HP> that brings him low.

The Giant hits the ground with a thud...

Outside, the others can hear smashing on the other side of the Ice Wall.
The Wall cracks at one point, and it is only a short matter of time before the Giants (and whatever else comes calling...) break through.

OoC:What's it going to be, folks? Fight or Flee...
