Who Wants to be a Wayfinder? The Alumni

[Krug]

"R-r-rats! So m-m-many r-r-rats!" Plonk says. "No wonder the soup tasted funny! What k-k-kind of e-es-... PLACE is this??" the gnome exclaims. He waves his crossbow around but readies action and fires only if one of the rats is 10' away.

 

[Ferrix]

Teivel hops off of his chair, his spiked chain lashing out at one of the rats. "You shouldn't try to woo rats, Kala, they'll only bite you," he quips sardonically.

OOC: Move to H13, swing at the rat at F12.

 

[Verbatim]

As the rats continued to run through the bar, Patruk guessed that whatever the shifter had tried to do had not worked the way she had planned.

~Although, she has given me an idea...~

Patruk's eyes grew murky as he reached inside himself for the gift that had followed him upon his return from the grave. It was a minor trick really, but Patruk had long since learned that even minor tricks were effective in the right setting.

Suddenly the angry hissing and growls of cats began filling the bar and Patruk hoped that whatever was driving the vermin from their holes was not stronger than an animal's desire to flee from its natural enemy.

OOC:[sblock]Using Ghost Sound and centering it behind the rats at 10 and 11. Hope you don't mind the eye thing as I am sorta stealing it from the X-Men movie. It will only happen when he uses his Nec Born abilities until he takes Blood Mage, then it will be a pretty constant thing.[/sblock]

“Looks like these little bastards are out to lunch,” Kala said, drawing her scimitar with almost animal glee. With an easy smooth move, the shifter girl jumps onto the table in front of her, hoping to use the high ground to her advantage.

“I’ll be sure never to try wooing you, then, Torn,” she said with a grin and a wink at the swashbuckling lordling.

Jaron Dain - Paragon

With a quick motion Jaron sights a rat about to attack someone and releases an arrow.


OOC - Target Rat at 14E (+4 to Hit w/Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot - 1d8 Damage)

 

[SelcSilverhand]

The rats scatter into the room. Some seem to run aimlessly while others rush towards the nearest patrons and attack. One to the south manages to bite one of the men swinging at him and hold on. He shouts and flails at the rat with the broken fragments of his chair. Two more at the other end of the room have cornered a rather drunk dwarf who is trying to beat them to death with his tankard. Glaw rushes forward to aid the men to the south. His fist crushes the rat closest to him. Teivel steps forward, whipping his chain about his head. He looses one weighted end that smashes into a rat and straight through the wooden floor underneath. Kala leaps nimbley onto the top of a table, her scimitar in hand. Patruk's spell fills the room behind the bar with the sounds of cats fighting and hissing. The noise can barely be heard above the din of people shouting and fighting. Some of the rats panic and run back towards the kitchen. Jaron fires his bow at a rat menacing a nearby patron, but the bolt misses the fast moving rodent. One of the rats darts past Teivel and heads for the group of you when Plonk's bolt abruptly skewers it to the floor.

Glaw
[SBLOCK]
From your years of studying all aspects of animal behaviour, you are familiar to the cause and effect formula that can be used to describe animal habits. Responses to danger, seeking food, shelter, a mate, are all common motivations. You can tell these rats are not fleeing danger, nor are they looking for food, shelter, or a mate (Unless Kala's squeaking entices them). Some seem to be running about with no goal other than to cause havoc. Others seem to actively move to the nearest person and attack.

Jaron Dain - Paragon

Again with a quick motion and change on field of fire, Jaron sights a rat about to attack someone and releases an arrow.

Speaking to no one in particular, thought the grin on his face is unmistakable."I am really starting to have second thoughts on our choice of establishments."


OOC - Target Rat at I-08 (+4 to Hit w/Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot - 1d8+1 Damage)

 

[Krug]

"I hit it! I hit it!" says Plonk after he skewers one of the rats, who jumps up and down, trying to balance himself on the table. He quickly tries to reload and will shoot at any other rats approaching.

 

[Primus]

“Nice shot,” Kala said to the gnome, as she hopped down off the table and brought her scimitar around to skewer a rat in arm’s reach.

[sblock]Attack rat right in front of Kala. Attack roll 1d20+2 = 21 (CRIT THREAT!), Crit Confirm 1d20+2 = 19. Damage, including Crit – 2d6+4 = 11.[/sblock]

 

[Ferrix]

As Teivel sends his spiked chain lashing out at another rat, he quips back to Kala, "you're just afraid that you'd like it if I were to nibble on you."

OOC: Move to E13, Attack rat at C13.
