Vengeance in Mornonas

[Manzanita]

Solomon Kreel

OOC: Don't forget Solomon's favored enemy. Dmg w/greatsword should be +6. Not that it mattered this time since the orc dropped. How many HPs does he have now? 1 or 2?

Solomon knows that a single crossbow bolt could be the death of him. Staying behind the pillar, he sheaths his greatsword and picks up his bow. Next round he will shoot again, probably at the tangled orc.

OOC waiting for Silentspace

--- Near the golden lion

Jasper and Jraq wait for a few minutes outside. The councellor comes back with two militians and what looks like a knight in full plate armor with a shield and a morningstar. The knight also has small bag on his side. On his tabbard Jasper can identify a symbol of the nobility. The four man head toward the temple.

---- In the temple
Init
1st man in the stairs 22
Dai 19
Black cloak 15
Militian 14+
Telic 14
Solomon 10
2nd man in the stairs 10
Gror 6
Orc 1 5
Orc 2 5

The first man in the stairs doesn't notice Dai and rushes toward the central room. Dai (who readied an action) jumps on the man with his magically enhanced staff. (roll 19+4) Dai first blow (dmg 18) brakes the neck of the men who die on the spot.

Nobody saw what the cloacked figure did.

Nobody saw what the militian did

Telic (who drew his sword has a move action last turn) exchange a few attack and parade with the Orc he finally find an opportunity and with his akward looking greatsword pierces (roll 6+6+3 that was lucky, don't know what's happening to the D6) the orc chest. The sword completly went through him. As Telic removes his sword from his opponent body he fall on the ground. The orc is slowly dying on the ground.

Solomon hidden from the other shooter by the large pillard pick up his bow and aim at the orc. (roll 8+5 dmg 8+5) The Orc howl in pain as he received the arrow right in the middle of the back, but he doesn't fall on the ground.

The second men who saw Dai killed his friend with a single blow nervously grab his crossbow and start knocking a quarrel. His hands are shaking and he slowly walk back up while reloading it, trying to keep his eyes on Dai. Dai can notice the sweat on his forehead, obviously he is really scared of him.

Nobody knows what Gror did.

The only orc standing, furious charges on Solomon(he doesn't technically charge because of the Tanglefoot) on him. He walks in an akward fashion and has a very hard time crossing the 40' to Solomon. (He completes his double move in front of Solomon cursing at him all the way there).

OOC Solomon has now 2hp

Jasper will have Jraq continue following them, using the same system as before.

Telic Freeman, a traveller.

ooc: I looked back over the thread but can't see where Telic has taken any significant wounds. Am I missing something, or did you mean Solomon has two hp? Working on the basis that it is the latter, although I can't really see much alternative even if it is the former.

"Godspit!" Telic hisses. With a glance at the orc at his feet to ensure that he isn't getting up any time soon, Telic steps up to engage the orc threatening Solomon, seeking a flanking position if is possible.

"How about trying me on for size you great big lump of goblin dung! I've added one notch to my belt already, might as well make it two," Telic says lazily to the orc as he approaches it. Telic puts everything into making like the whole affair is nothing more than a minor irritation, and the orc not really worthy of the effort.

ooc: * Obviously trying to draw the orcs attention from Solomon. Bluff +7? * greatsword +7 melee (2d6+3, 20x4)

Solomon Kreel

It looks like Tellic acts before Solomon next. If Tellic manages to slay the orc, Solomon will peer around the pillar towards where Gror and the others were last seen. If he sees any enemies, he will fire, using rapid shot (two arrows at +3 1d8 +3). If he sees no enemies, he will advance upwards towards the next pillar.

If Tellic fails to slay the orc, Solomon will take a 5 foot step back and shoot the orc battling Tellic, once. (+1 1d8 +5 factoring in his favored enemy and his -4 for firing into melee)

OOC: I had forgotten he had rapidshot

 

[DarkMaster]

OOC Ferrix I will assume you attack the second sniper in the stairs.

Init
Dai 19
Black cloak 15
Militian 14+
Telic 14
Solomon 10
2nd man in the stairs 10
Gror 6
Orc 1 5

Dai dashes up the stairs and finishes the second shooter (12+6, dmg 9+7) with his staff. Using the tip of his staff he hits the man in the stomach with such strength that the second sniper falls on the ground unconcsious.

Telic tries to deconcentrate the orc but he seems so focus on Solomon that he doesn't even pay attention to his remark (roll 7+7) Telic takes the opportunity and charges (He is 40` feet away so you have to double move) the orc. (Telic and Solomon will be positioned to flank the orc but Solomon is holding his bow so no +2 for Telic). Telic charges with his Mercurial great sword like if it was a lance. Hearing Telic steps the Orc turns his head. Telic can see blood coming out of his mouth and his eyes are all red. Solomon's arrow badly hurted him. But with an unbeleivable bad luck Telic swords slides on a metal stud of his studded leather. (Roll 1)

Solomon steps back to take an arrow, but somehow lose his cover from the pillar. The militian takes that opportunity to shoot at him (Ready action roll 16). Solomon hears the sound of the quarrel flying through the air and also look at it coming without being able to do a single thing to prevent it from ripping through his armor at stomach height. Last thing he sees before falling unconcsious it the smile of the militian who seems really proud of his shot (DMG 8 Solomon is now stable at -6, still recovering 1hp/rounds). Solomon falls on the ground unconscious.

The dying orc laughs at Telic bad luck and in a quick motion turn and slashes him with his falchion as he completes his charging action. roll 10 but Telic with a last second movement dodges the blow, enraging the orc even more.

Telic shifts, steadies and, with a silent prayer to Olidamarra, attacks again.

ooc: * greatsword +7 melee (2d6+3, 20x4)

After downing the second man, Dai looks around. He doesn't hear anymore sound coming from upstairs (tower). He can walk around the temple on the second floor. The small parapet provides some cover and he can have a better view of the first floor being 15` higher. He can also go back down and help the others

OOC Ferrix I will wait for your post to continue Dai.

The militian reload his crossbow and shoot at Telic even if he is in melee. (roll 7) The quarrel passes by and go hit the back wall.

Telic and the orc are exchanging blow. Telic with in a very clever move land a dangerous blow roll (3+7) But it was a bit too difficult to complete and it doesn't have enough force to go through his armor.

Telic's miss blow gives an opportunity for the orc to step back (5 foot step) holding his falchion in one hand, he takes a metal vial located on his belt, pop the cap with his large thumbs and quickly drinks it. Telic notices that his condition improves dramatically. As he regain his strength he laughs.

--- On the way to the temple

Nothing new Jraq and Jasper are still following the four man

---- In the University

OOC still waiting for Oculus to answer the archeologist.

 

[Ferrix]

If Dai can get into a position above the militian with the crossbow, he'll take the chance and attempt to drop down on him, staff first.

OOC: adjuticate how you wish, if it's not possible, Dai will probably head back downstairs

 

[DarkMaster]

Dai sprints on the second floor around the church to get near the militian he covers the 200' in about 6 sec.(move silently roll 20 - 20 for sprinting + 3 dex vs listen roll 2 - 1 distance) The soldier too preocupied by the action below doesn't hear Dai approaching.

OOC Dai is now right above the soldier 15' high.
