Yttermayn's "Saga of the Dragon Cult" (IC) 2

[Yttermayn]

A rear rank kobold takes a 5 foot step forward to fill in where another fell and swings. The other front rank also swings. It is unclear what they were aiming at however, due to the inexplicably clumsy attacks they both made. Meanwhile, the crossbowmen share a few yipping words and then simultaneously fire as a unit at the scariest target in front of them- Scrag. Half a dozen bolts streak toward Scrag. One just misses him and the steel point strikes a spark off the stone near Scrag's head. The others impact Scrag's body in various places. Two bolts actually bounce off his thick hide and clatter to the floor in front of him. One sticks in an enormous, disgusting, hardened carbuncle on his chest and falls out. The last two, however, manage to draw blood quite seriously. Shoulder and thigh sprout blood-blossomed bolt shafts and Scrag starts to feel just a little woozy despite his incredible fortitude.


OOC: Roderic is up! Leif- Not really. But the front line fighters are getting pounded pretty bad.

OOC: rodrick's turn?

 

[Leif]

OOC: Grok's action adjusted/changed below in post 700

 

[Yttermayn]

Grok picks his moment and steps forward to heal Scrag. One of the crossbow bolts embedded in his hide pops out and falls to the floor.

OOC: Roderic is up! Grok originally ended up at the bottom of the init pile due to held action so I am assuming that's what happened this round too. He has now held 'till after the kobolds and done his thing.

Roderic

The young paladin continues to ply his bloodied blade, as he hacks at the nearest kobold!

 

[Amaury]

Rosalia suddenly decides that all kobolds are equally ugly and thus aims at one of the kobold archers, presumably a bit farther away from the melee.

A headshot would be nice! Stop moving you idiot! she thinks, addressing mentally the targeted kobold.

Unfortunately, her mental request seems of no effect whatsoever as she completely misses the intended target!

 

[Yttermayn]

Roderic goes back to the basics and takes a measured swing at one of the remaining melee'rs. His patients pays off when his sword tip opens up a large cut in the kobolds armor and torso. Another arrow goes whizzing over his head a moment later, reminding him of those he defends behind him.

Roderic 20 (rnd3 slash, hit for 5)
Rosalia 15 (rnd3 Shot, missed)
Scrag 13 -5 (rnd2 hitm killed elite melee kobold)
Tuk 7 -12 (rnd2 Missed)
John (rnd2 cast lesser acid orb, miss)
8 Kobolds (rnd2 miss, miss, 4 bolts miss Scrag, 2 bolts hit Scrag for 8+5=13)

Grok 10 (rnd2 Total Defense +4 AC CLW on Scrag for 10)
3 x Elite Melee Kobolds Dead

OOC: Scrag and Tuk are up! I just realized my mental math on the number of enemies was off. Don't worry, you'll get xp for the larger number of enemies. I think I initially said '9', but I've been envisioning and running as 12. Your chars should be able to handle them and will be wanting the extra eep anyways.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

OOC: Is only 1 kobold in melee with Scrag, or does he have several in melee range?

 

[Leif]

Grok Half-Orc Cleric2

[Free Action] (I hope?) Grok looks around quickly to see if there's another of his companions in dire need of healing.

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Die already!" Tuk grunts and swings his chain hard against the shield bearer, breaking through the protective layer of wood and going through the kobold itself! He janks the chain back, satisfaction reaching his ears as the sound of broken bones and rend flesh fills the cave's air.

Critical hit! Confirms for 7 additional damage, to a total of 17
