X4-5: across the mountains - IC

[kinem]

ooc: Summon Monster is a full round action, so the bee will not appear until the end of the round.

 

[renau1g]

Father Fuller cries out at the slash and the ice crystals forming on his skin, then moves closer to the skeleton and smashes the creature with his mace, knocking bits of bone from its frame.

Aram remains on the defensive, slowly working his way around Skelete. "Come on Girgal," he shouts. "Smash the damn thing's bones!"

The troll skeleton swings the axe at Girgal, but his tough hide deflects the blow. It also tries to claw and bite at him, with no more effect.

A giant bumblebee appears near Aram and attempts to sting the skeleton, but misses.

ooc: PCs to act

 

[Leif]

Bevin "The Beguiler" Rockhammer, Beguiler9, AC:20/17/15 HP:56/56

OOC: Bevin wants the bee to buzz loudly right in the skeleton's face and try to block his vision. Stinging is nice, too, but Bev mostly wants the bee to be a huge nuisance to the thing and distract it.

 

[kinem]

ooc: Too bad for Bevin that he can not communicate with the creature, and even if he could, the bee has no such capabilities. Summon Monster 2 does not double as glitterdust.

[sblock]The way I see it, beguilers have three main options against undead and constructs. Use glitterdust to blind (no SR - works on golems!), illusions to distract, or greater invisiblity to help protect PCs. Bevin has a couple other options due to his extra spells known - summon monster and burning hands. In any case, far be it from me to tell anyone how to run their PC [/sblock]

The closest things the bee can do to what you want, are to attack the skeleton (which then has a chance of randomly targeting it, since skeletons are mindless) and to help someone flank.

I will allow Bevin to use hand motions to direct the bee to move to a different square so it can help flank.

 

[Rhun]

Aram steps behind the skeleton, and his scimitars slash in at the creature. The dervish remains on the defensive, but hopes the cuts of his blades will at least distract the thing from his companions.


5' step southeast, Aram should now be flanking Skelete (no sneak attack obviously, but +2 to attacks.

Full Attack + Combat Expertise [5], AC is 30

+7/+2 Scimitar +1, holy (1d6+3 [+2d6 vrs evil], 18-20/x2) AND +7/+2 Scimitar +1, holy (1d6+3 [+2d6 vrs evil], 18-20/x2)

 

[Walking Dad]

Girgal, AC 23 (T15, FF20), HP 66/66, F +11,R+8,W+14

Without having a better idea, Girgal continuous his assault.
