Even prone, Whyre can stand up and move 30' with a double move. Since I expect Colvin will meet the dwarf head-on, the most important thing for Whyre is to move to a position where Colvin is not providing Soft Cover. So there is no advantage for Whyre to move ahead of Colvin.
Speaking of Soft Cover. TSS, you might want to read/review the rules regarding Soft Cover. If you stand in front of anyone with a ranged weapon, you'll be providing the target a +4 to the target's AC. So when in melee, try and take a position that does not block line of sight for others. The 5' step is wonderful tool before or after an attack to move about without incurring an AoO. Thanks.
Mez tries to get the Ghost to talk rather than fight "Its Harad you have a beef with not these innocents. Tell us what he has done and how you would like us to dispose of the body."
If the ghost continues to advance then Mez casts a spell before standing up.
[sblock=Action]Ready Action: Cast Dispel Undead and stand up[/sblock]
Evret freezes up for a moment upon seeing the terrible apparaition in the doorway. He moves slowly and quietly, trying not to draw attention to himself as he rises.
OOC:
Move action to stand up, another move to hide himself.
Having spent more than a few nights sleeping in the wild, Whyre was used to waking at the slightest disturbance. In this case, the dwarven ghost was hardly a slight disturbance. Whyre was hardly surprised to see the creature and his bow was already in his hand as he stood up. Whyre hoped that somehow that Bastion could reason with the creature, but that's all he had, hope. In the meantime, he notched a blunt arrow and moved to a better position.
OOC:
Stand as a Move Action
Move to 20' to G7, 10' behind Colvin and ready bow
"Granthum!" wails the stoutly terrifying spirit as it raises its axe and charges right towards Lirev through the open space just vacated by Whyre. Colvin's chakram whizzes behind it as it rushes by Morgan, leaving the druid a small opening to attack.
OOC:
Anyone else that readied actions to attack may resolve them now, and Morgan gets an attack of opportunity (I assume he would have stood up and drawn weapons on his turn) .
One of these days. One of these days I am not going to have to be reminded of what should be blindingly obvious, as I am the one who set it up. At least I can take some solace that even if I seemingly cannot track what is happening properly, I can at least referee what does happen, .
I guess that means we are just waiting for Mez then.
