TUW: The Outpost

[Tellerian Hawke]

Maka will shoot at the nearest enemy, which is indicated on the map below:

[Waynan]

Sensing that the Essence of the Kaalatala that he attacked is still within him, Raven Elk kneels down to pull the spear out: but also, to touch the Kaalatala over his heart and uses Way to draw out what is left of his Essence to strengthen his own. This was something Ma had told him. When you knew they were dying, it was sometimes helpful to draw out what was left for yourself (as a Warrior would) or to transfer to transfer to the family members to help them know the new journey their departed love one was now on. (as she heard practitioners like her would use that could use Way in that manner).

OOC: GM NOTE: Richelle's ability to manipulate Way is trivial as she is a Diviner. What she can do is related to Hermetics (plants and animals not people). Animals do not have an Essence, only sentient beings do. While a novice character can withdraw the essence from another person using Dissemble, it is simple released. It cannot be used for any purpose. Trying to keep it for oneself is like trying to pour more liquid into a full cup. It just pours out over the side and is lost.

 

[Kwargrow]

Taylar intends to jab the iron shod end of his baton into the abdomen of the Kaalatala and manipulate Way to Heat his opponent.

 

[Waynan]

Raven Elk, as he pulls the spear out of the Kaalatala's dying body, realizes that there is something strange and dark about trying to pull Essence from someone else to use for oneself and gives up on the process realizing that this leads nowhere --- at least nowhere he wants to travel.

He stands to help Taylar with the other Kaalatala.

Day 217: Continued Combat

Adi decides to stay put, knowing that V will have more company soon. He peeks around the tree trunk watching and waiting for the enemy to come by so he can attack. He will add thump to any attack.

Maka will shoot at the nearest enemy...

Vittero will continue to use his bow as a shield to deflect the enemy's javelin, while again trying to hit him to manipulate Way. Since the enemy is already injured, he will try heat this time.

The Kaalatala fighting Taylar is the fastest to reengage. He attempts to spear Taylar with his javelin.

GM: Taylar and the Kaalatala make about an even exchange, both able to hurt the other, but the addition of Raven Elk is more than the Kaalatala can defend against. After already being hurt, Raven Elk's spear stab leaves the Kaalatala dying. Maka can readily see that two of the Kaalatala will reach him well before he can draw his bow.

OOC: Maka will be next.

 

[Tellerian Hawke]

Seeing that the two approaching foes are closing fast, Maka will give a war cry, and clock the nearest one in the head, using the bow as a club, while at the same time manipulating Way, creating a sonic wave (thump) in front of the blow, in order to make it hit harder.

​

GM: Maka almost instantly adjusts his intention, but the Kaalatala Novice is still able to reach him and jab with his spear before he can adjust.

[sblock=Assault]Kaalatala Novice: 36(attack) + 23(precision) + 15(fury) + 74(d100) = 148
148 - 50(partial cover) = 98
Maka: 15(defend) + 15(preservation) + 15(konokoro) + 87(d100) = 132[/sblock]

GM: Using the benefit of being in between 2 trees, Maka is able to successfully defend against the first Kaalatala attack.

[sblock=Assault]Maka: 17(attack) + 15(precision) + 15(fury) + 83(d100) = 130
130 - 50(partial cover) = 80

[sblock=Thump]Range: Touch
Affect: Essence + Confluence
Effectiveness:

• Essence + Confluence +
• Mind + Knowledge + Will +

By actively manipulating Way, this causes a rapid expansion of air creating a loud thump in the target's ears which can inflict stunning damage (loss of Mind).
Maka: 32 + 72(d100) = 104
KN: 35(conditioning) + 15(fury) + 20(d100) = 70
Damage: 104 - 70 = 34% * 13 = 4
Mind: 9 - 4 = 5: dazed[/sblock]

GM: The tree offers the same coverage for the Kaalatala, but he is unable to make as good of use of it, as Maka strikes his waist with his bow. Simultaneously generating a loud thump as he strike, the Kaalatala is even more stunned by the pulse of air. The second and third foes reach Maka just as he dazes the first.

[sblock=Assault]Kaalatala: 24(attack) + 17(precision) + 13(fury) + 88(d100) = 142
142 - 50(partial cover) + 50(2nd opponent) = 142

GM: Though Maka appears to be getting overwhelmed with enemies, he has prevailed uninjured thus far as his armor as prevented any javelin from finding flesh.

Day 217: Adisakti Takes Action

Adi decides to stay put, knowing that V will have more company soon. He peeks around the tree trunk watching and waiting for the enemy to come by so he can attack. He will add thump to any attack.

[sblock=Speed of Attack]Adisakti: no roll necessary
Vittero: 16(readiness) + 17(impetus) + 17(fury) + 61(d100) = 111
111 - 32(armor) - 100(way) = -21

Kaalatala: 54 + 52(d100) = 106
106 - 10(armor) - 100(javelin) - 70(injured) = -74[/sblock]

GM: When the first of the two new Kaalatala sounds as if he is about to pass, Adisakti steps into the path swinging his staff, culminating his manipulation of Way as he does.

[sblock=Concealment]Adisakti: 12(inversion) + 17(stealth) + 90(d100) + 82(luck) = 201
Kaalatala Novice: 15(konokoro) + 23(perception) + 44(d100) = 82

KN: 35(conditioning) + 63(d100) = 98
Damage: 102 - 98 = 4% * 9 = ineffective[/sblock]

GM: Perhaps the Kaalatala was too focused on his target. Perhaps it was mere luck. Either way, Adi surprises his target as he steps toward him whirling has staff into the Novice's head, the echo of the thump resounding with the contact. The Kaalatala's head cracks with the force of the blow as blood begins to trickle from the wound as well as his nose and right ear. The foe falls straight backward. His counterpart barely notices as he rushes by toward Vittero. Vittero reacts faster than the injured Kaalatala with whom he is already fighting and stabs at him with his dagger, still using his bow in his left hand to block.

[sblock=Assault]Vittero: 13(attack) + 17(precision) + 17(fury) + 70(d100) = 117
Kaalatala: 24(defend) + 17(preservation) + 13(konokoro) + 20(d100) = 74
Damage: 117 - 74 = 43% * 10 = 4
Body: 3 - 4 = -1: incapacitated
Mind: 10 - 1 = 9: dazed[/sblock]

GM: Vittero flicks his knife into the Kaalatala, making a minor cut, but it is enough with the injuries already sustained to incapacitate him just as the Novice thrusts his javelin.

[sblock=Assault]Kaalatala: 36(attack) + 23(precision) + 15(fury) + 42(d100) = 116
Vittero: 16(defend) + 17(preservation) + 18(konokoro) + 97(d100) + 88(luck) = 236[/sblock]

GM: The falling first opponent provides a considerable bit of luck for Vittero, allowing him to easily avoid the second attacker.

[sblock=Character Data]

OOC: Maka is still involved with 3 opponents. Vittero has 1. Everyone else is free of active combat. Maka can take a step back when he reacts hoping to cause one of his opponents to move between the trees which would force the other 2 to move around in order to still attack. Everyone should state intentions.

 

[Sylvar B.]

Adi, stands, pleased with him self, he looks around and doesn't see Maka but hears the sound of combat to his left. He runs into the trees toward the sound, attempting to quiet his steps and hoping to find Maka before it's too late.
