Subtract one from Skulk 1's attack roll for BANE

 

[ahayford]

Two skulks loose their bolts, but they deflect harmlessly off Marcus's shield. Caytis's charge catches the lone skulk off guard, but he quickly ripostes. He uses the longer reach of the rapier to his advantage, scoring a flesh wound on Caytis's thigh.

Svexyn and Nia hurl missiles at the two bowmen, but they clatter uselessly in the debris behind them.

Dark tentacles seem to extend outward from Wilbur's form as he casts his spell. The foul pseudopods wrap around the three skulks and then dissolve, cursing them with their foul touch.

As Val touches Marcus's shoulder, his magic moves through Marcus's sword arm and steadies his blade. The mark of Cayden Cailean upon him, charges to Caytis's side against the long Skulk. Marcus's heavy downward swipe catches the Skulk in the shoulder. The Skulk yelps in pain and grabs his shoulder has his lifeblood mixes with the spider ichor that covers the floor.

The two crossbowmen abandon their comrade and flee down the breach tunnel to the ast.

Help me you bastards! COWARDS

[sblock=ooc]I've updated Caytis' stat block for the hit, but I'm a bit confused. His AC with shield is 19, so unless I'm missing something, the attack (17) misses, doesn't it? My best guess in reading the narrative round summary is that you applied an actual charge penalty to Caytis' AC, but he didn't actually charge (he couldn't, since he had to move through Marcus' square). Doesn't really affect the actions this round, but wanted to make sure I was understanding things correctly.[/sblock]


"So sad. No honor among skulks, eh?" Caytis quips. He shifts aside, mentally cursing the cot for making a flanking maneuver so difficult. He stabs out, and while he still can't seem to properly target any major arteries, he at least makes a deeper mark this time.

Aah when I was resolving combat I thought I remembered you casting shield but didn't see it in your action. I forgot that you cast it before combat began. I apologize. You can ignore the hit.

On hearing the other two flee, Nia mutters an oath and steps out to view the remaining one from behind Caytis.

"You," she says peremptorily. "We don't be havin' time for dis now. Surrendah or die."Her hair whipsaws out, arcing over her head like a scorpion's stinger.

[sblock=ooc] Sorry, long day at work tonight. Will update tomorrow.[/sblock]

 

[Fangor the Fierce]

Svexyn spots the fleeing skulks and thinks about letting them go. When Wilbur gives chase, he knows that he wont' get far on his own. "C'mon Val, let's go help out Wilbur. Easier for us as we don't need the light. Nia, keep that one alive for now..."

Svexyn then moves after Wilbur, another dagger already in hand and waiting to be used...

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Rapier in hand, Val follows along with his old friend in pursuit of Wilbur and the fleeing skulks.
