Sunedilar rolled 19+8=AC 27, hit, rolled 15+3 on Strength roll to pull her down. Alev rolled 11+5=AC 16, hit.  Rolled 4 damage.  Alev rolled 20+2=22 on Sense MotiveCharacters by Initiative, damage:Aligor, HPs:22/37Cat, unhurtBane, unhurtSunedilar, unhurtAlev, unhurtGirl, very hurt]Meanwhile, on Gorgon’s Way, Alicia isn’t sure about what action to take. For a moment, Gwyn feels he has half a dozen dogs attacking him from various angles, but as he concentrates, he realizes it’s the same dog, appearing and disappearing in slightly different places.  At one point, the dog’s jaws seem to almost close on his arm, but then the dog’s position shifts slightly, and instead the creature snaps at empty air.  T’aria notices two more dogs at the front doors to the building, and then suddenly, one of those dogs is instead right next to her and Miri, trying to grab at T’aria’s arm with it’s jaws.  The other dog that T’aria saw manifests itself right next to Alicia, barking at her loudly, but not attacking yet, apparently waiting to see what she will do.Gwyn hacks at the dog threatening him, his scimitar missing the dog’s nose by inches, then his pick, looking like it will hit the canine in it’s belly. But just as the weapon makes contact, the dog’s position once again shifts, resulting in the pick striking nothing.[I’m having Alicia “delay”, so we can continue.  As soon as I know what she’s doing, she’ll act at that point.  The dog on T’aria attempted to join in the grapple, rolling an 18, which I was sure would succeed, until T’aria opposed roll was a 20.  I’d really like to know how Goddess is influencing my dice like this. <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=":)" /> Note- I didn’t include T’aria’s proposed actions, since I thought they might change with one of the dogs on her.  Gwyn rolled 65% on his miss chance on the scimitar attack (so it could have hit), rolled 10+3=AC 13, missed.  Rolled 40% on miss chance on pick, no chance to hit.] [Characters by Initiative, damage:T’aria, unhurtMiri, unhurtJeleneth, unhurtAlicia, unhurtDogs, unhurtGwyn, HPs: 15/18]</blockquote>
