Whirtlestaffs Wizards Academy Action: in-character thread

[J. Alexander]

The Glade

1d20+4; 1d20+3 → [13,4] = (17) spot
1d20+4; 1d20+3 → [3,3] = (6) listen

 

[Leif]

Kerlan and Gregory are both quite certain that they saw some movement in the edge of the forest, but they are not certain what it was.


Another listen check from everyone, please? Forget that! Let's have some action!

 

[Scotley]

Tylara

Continuing her quest for the plants we need Tylara moves to her left stepping into some fallen leaves that make considerable noise and keep her from hearing anything in the woods.

OOC: Listen Check (1d20+2=7)

 

[Leif]

Tylara is stomping around and doesn't hear, but the rest of you hear gutteral cries from the edge of the forest, and look up to see a group of kobolds bearing down on your position. OOC: I'm not able to make a map at the moment, but we'll assume for the sake of whatever that the bad guys are in a fairly tight-knit group and the wizards are also. You can move as you wish from here onward.

Initiative!

 

[Scotley]

OOC: No worries on the map, but could you give a rough distance from our group to theirs? That will help us decide on what sort of Artillery to unleash on them.

 

[FreeXenon]

Durgeon (Male Dwarf Conjurer); Init: 4

Durgeon will move back and then cast Grease (DC15) upon the Kobold's ranks if he has time and relative safety.


[OOC: How far away and how many are there? Weapons and armor? Is there a creature that is most likely a caster in the group?

Initiative vs Kobolds (1d20+1=4) ]

 

[KerlanRayne]

Initiative vs Kobolds (1d20+3=10)

OOC: Yes, a distance would be nice as well as a rough number. Are there about a dozen? Half a dozen? Do any of them look like a leader?

Good questions, all. They are approximately 40 yards away and closing rapidly. They are still a good bit out of range of the grease spell. There are between 5 and 10 kobolds, none that look like a leader, but one at the back that looks like a shaman or something. All of the others are armed with spears, and wearing hide or leather armor (some wearing hide, some leather). As they approach, they are staying in a fairly tight group, with the "shaman" at the rear.

 

[Scotley]

Tylara

Seeing the reactions of her companions, Tylara turns and is startled to see the Kobolds approaching. "Cheeky Buggers! Its getting so a girl can't even go picking wildflowers in the meadow anymore." Dropping her basket she pulls her bow and quickly nocks an arrow and lets it fly (1d20+4=23) at the lead Kobold. She is gratified to see the arrow (1d8+2=8) hit hard. To her fellow wizards she calls, "Use your spells on the Shaman first and I'll try to slow the warriors down a little with a well placed arrow or two."

OOC: Initiative (1d20+2=15)

 

[KerlanRayne]

To her fellow wizards she calls, "Use your spells on the Shaman first and I'll try to slow the warriors down a little with a well placed arrow or two."

"Sure thing," Kerlan calls back as he begins casting Glitterdust (DC 15), catching as many as he can in the area, including the Shaman in the back.
