Aligor rolled 17+9=AC 26, hit.  Damage rolled 8+7=15.  Hex fails a fortitude check and is dead.  Aligor is dying, having lost his extra HPs from his rage.]Sunedilar hears the hooves of horses outside the antique store as he decides what to do.[Characters by initiative, damage:Sunedilar, HPs: 21/29Aligor, HPs:0/37, dyingLeeza, deadHectaras, dead]Current (later than the Boone fight), near Max’s Martial Training SchoolThe city guardsmen hear Alicia’s story, but apparently don’t buy it.  One says “No way anyone in town would hire… whatever the hell you are.  Lay down on the ground or we fire!”  When Alicia fails to comply, all three begin circling around the cart, one to the right side of the cart, two to the left, firing their crossbows.  Alicia can only use the cart to protect her from two of her attackers, and the third manages to shoot a quarrel into her shoulder.[Alicia rolled Bluff 6-2=4.  Failed.  I was hoping you’d get lucky and roll high, just for the humor of them falling for it. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  Oh well.  Alicia is hit once for 3 points of damage.]Alicia hears her dwarf friend some 70 feet behind her yell “You stupid guards aren’t going to come after these brave warriors today!  They’ve suffered enough!”  She casts a spell, and suddenly icy rain begins to fall, even though it’s a warm day, in the area between the guards and the warriors bandaging their fellow’s wounds [see Map for area].  The rain falls hard, making visibility through it impossible, and coating the ground with thick ice, including the ground where one of the city guard’s mounts are standing.Alicia, still smarting from the quarrel in her shoulder, charges her attacker, striking him hard.  The man drops his crossbow, pulls a heavy mace and strikes Alicia with it hard.  The horse in the ice storm slips as it tries to walk, and falls, while the other guard moves back, so the cart no longer provides cover, and fires, but misses as he’s careful not to hit the guard next to the half-ogre.[Alicia’s attack rolls 16+8+2+2=AC 28, hit.  Damage rolled is 7+13=20.  Alicia took 6 points of damage from the mace.  Note: you were at 12 HPs before this, so I went with your ‘charge’ and not eating berries (actually, weren’t they nuts?)  You probably will want to eat them now. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> ][Characters by initiative, damage:Alicia, HPs: 6/262 City Guard, unhurt1 City Guard, hurtBurly man with longsword, dyingMan with crossbow, unhurtMan with gleaming longsword, very hurtGirdra, unhurt]</blockquote>
