Baeril attempts to light a torch. Miraculously, it catches on the second try...
[SBLOCK=Baeril]
Baeril can see... shadows. He's pretty certain that Aswan, Jerolan, and Thorg are all clustered quite close together, with something about the size of a large cat floating above them. Whatever it is, it is definitely *not* a cat, however. Too many bits flailing about.[/SBLOCK]
[SBLOCK=Carolina] Carolina can now see Aswan, Jerolan, and Thorg, as well as something above them, but she's not quite sure what.[/SBLOCK]
[SBLOCK=Aswan] Aswan can see Jerolan and Thorg quite well. Floating above them is some sort of airborne squid.[/SBLOCK]
[SBLOCK=Jerolan]
Jerolan can see the outlines of his fellows, and some sort of shape above his head.
[/SBLOCK]
[SBLOCK=Thorg] Thorg can see his buddies, and a flying squid monster![/SBLOCK]
Round 3:
21: Baeril lights his torch.
10: Carolina slings a stone at the creature, but it bounces harmlessly off.
8: Aswan misses with his first blow, but a follow-up jumping roundhouse catches the beast firmly just above the tentacles, knocking it back slightly.
7: Jerolan attacks with both weapons, narrowly missing with his rapier but striking a glancing blow with his dagger.
7: Mysterious assailant (-4) misses as it attempts to slam into Aswan.
5: Thorg yells at the monster and swings wildly at it, missing badly.
[SBLOCK=OOC]
Bright idea with the torch! Everyone can now see something, so I'm giving you all (except for Baeril, who took his turn lighting the torch) a chance to give new directions in light of this illuminating knowledge.
I guess this means I have to do up a map now....

[SBLOCK=OOC2]Carolina attack, 10+6 misses.
Aswan flurry of blows 5+0 misses, 18+0 connects. 20% miss chance, roll of 10 strikes true. 1+2 points of damage.
Jerolan two-handed attack: 16+4 hits, 19+4 hits and threatens. 20% miss chance, roll of 2 misses, roll of 9 strikes true. 10+4 fails to confirm. 1 point of damage.
Thorg attack, 2+1 misses.
Please not that the negative number after a character/monster is the total number of HP lost, not its actual number of HP.
