Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
Sslag settles down and adresses the others.
And I am Sslag, brother of Sslar from the brood of Burz.
He scooped up the halfling and set him on his shoulders.
And I take that claim as a challenge, halfling. I know a bit about flight myself.
OOC: And Necro, I did a bit of searching around. Draconic is a perfectly viable language for arcane verbal components and, due to the articulation of the dragon's hand (draconomicon somewhere, they can even use wands with their hind feet...) somatic component's shouldn't be a problem, at least not with a proper concentration check.

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((Cool. Fireball spitting chimera, who'd've thunk it. though I don't have fireball, yet.
For the purpose of this exercise I think it's okay to assume this room allows us to treat all damage as subdual.))
Uranus didn't respond to the other introductions, she wasn't one for social niceties. As they arrived at her room she opened the door to a vast stone structure. Somewhere around 300 feet wide, by 300 long, with about 800 feet of height.
"I guess I'll be target number one. Just give me a moment to prepare."
Over a short period of time Uranus doubled in size, her physique filled out quite a bit and several images of herself began to appear.
"Ready?"

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
Sslag looks amused, and settles Sasach down.
I take it that this is a challenge? For every defense, there is a variable that is overlooked
Sslag lobbed a dirt clod at the real figure.
These images sound and look like the real thing, but only you have an odor.

Hooray for blindsense!
Sslag took a running leap and streaked towards the now-large Uranus with a flap of his wings.
OOC: Untrained grapple check provokes an attack of opportunity, but not before the AoO provoked from entering through the large-creature reach
Grapple Attack: [roll0]

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((****ing blindsense.))
(Using Invisible Fist to become invisible as an immediate action until your turn ends. [roll0] If you are still subject to flat-footing from invisible attackers, well you get the point. Not really sure how blindsense works, I'll have to look it up. SRD says you should have 50% miss chance and no dex to AC.)
Uranus swung at Sslag.
[roll1] If hits [roll2]
If that fails then I'll take my second AOO (combat reflexes) for the untrained grapple. If possible it will be a stunning fist attempt.
[roll3] for damage [roll4] Fort save DC 24

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
OOC: Nice...both strikes hit, due to flatfootedness and the attack fails.
Blindsense can tell which square you are in (hence being able to tell which of the images are false, but cannot see invisibility or sharpen blurred, concealed targets.
Fortitude Save: [roll0]

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((Yeah like you weren't going to save for that.))

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
There is still a five percent chance that it works, though...
So, end of my turn and Uranus becomes visible again, if I read that correctly.
your turn!

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((My turn then everypone else can take their turns.))
Using invisible fist again. (considering it a new round, she took her spell actions, then you attacked and it came back to her, if we're not going to count it that way she'll use her shadowblade boost to become invisible as a swift action instead.)
Using stunning fist attempt (leaving 7 for the day, one just now, one for this action, and once against the psion) to engulf her hands and feet in flames. Two Weapons fighting reduced the extra attack penalty.
[roll0] if hit [roll1] and fire damage [roll2]

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((I thought it was a duel, but If anyone else want's to come in and join, sure..)
The flurry of blows connects, but the lizardfolk seems to shrug off three of the impacts. (AC 26 flat footed) Also, the fire licks his flesh and does nothing. (Fire immunity due to brass dragon apotheosis)
Total damage taken so far: 59 points.

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
The halfling set himself down in a steadied position, at first aiming for the copies, aiming to dispel them to determine the real, but seeing one turn invisible and Sslag's attacks connecting led him instead figure out which was the right, and focus his attacks there.

The d20s are attack rolls, the d4s are weapon damage, and the d6 are energy damage. 50% miss chance even if I aim for the right square, right?

Depends. If you wait for her to attack, then the invisibility ends. She used it to attempt to deny Sslag his dexterity bonus.
As for Sslag's action, his limbs burst into flame as he begins his onslaught.

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
Good point. She just attacked, so Ignore the d100s.

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((Actually it's not invisibility as the spell. Using my stance I am invisible until the end of the round regardless of attacks. So when my turn comes back around I will again be visible. Unless I am mistaken but that is how I was able to dictate it. BTW: Mirror Image says that if I levitate or turn invisible, my copies do aswell, same with casting spells, it appears as they are casting as well. So, when I turn invisible so do they.))

((Well, his attacks connected, and mirror images dissipate on a successful attack. Not to mention his verbal pointers.))

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((Two of your rolls beat the 50% miss chance, now you have to roll another percentage, for my four images, forgot to roll, so 3 for 10th level caster. Only on 75% or higher will you actually hit me. If you hit the other one, then they'll disspate. But so far only two of your atacks connected and now you gots to roll to see if you hit the right person. Unelss you have true seeing or blindsense.
I love stacking odds.))

((If you'll remember, Sslag pointed you out by scent, and by action, and since I mostly trust Sslag, I'll go for that one. It's not a random feature, I'm allowed to pick my targets among your illusions.))

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
Pity that there aren't any area affect doodads we could use. Those would clean up the mirror images pretty quickly.
Ooh, these stances make my head hurt.
Just be glad that I don't have damage reduction or fast healing (not yet anyways).
And make sure you don't pincussion Sslag's arse, Squish! :smallbiggrin:

((Sslag poitned me out by scent, that does not grant you the ability to discern my location, no matter what he says; it gives HIM the ability to pinpoint my location. Also, read the description for Mirror Image, the images don't stand still, they move inbetween the squares we take up so you CAN'T pinpoint one. That is why you have to roll a percentage based on the number of images. Scent grants the PC with it to pinpoint, which only works for him.
Much like an animal companion can tell you which square an invisible foe is in, but you still take the miss chance.))
-
Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((I think I see the problem being addressed. All sasach knows is that the real target is in the squarew that Sslag is attacking. However, he still cannot see the target and gets the 50% miss chance applied. Also, let us take this to the OOC thread for this. I also read on your char sheet that the Shadow Stance as granting invisibility "until the end of your turn as an immediate action". I am not sure how many times a day you can use stances, but I am pretty sure your turn ends at the end of your last attack or action. Otherwise, you have effective pixie invisibility. ))

((The point is that he acted on the scent-based discovery that only he knew. He acted in a way we could all perceive, revealing the one he's striking as the real one. It's not like I can't see where he's attacking, or see him react to your blows.
And it says you CAN move in-between the squares to re-disguise your identity against foes who've learned it through sight and sound, but even that wouldn't help, since you're invisible. We can't see the rest of your images, so how does it help?
The rolling randomly applies generally, against NPC foes without strategy, not to foes who've ID'ed you, or even have a hunch.))

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
(I'm still confused as to how the precision strike works, is it damagex6?)
-
Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
((Gah, this happens when I miswrite something. The precise attack can do up to your normal BAB attacks in multiplying. Essentially, it's better if either you risk missing on your lesser attacks, or a single attack with a multiplier would be more powerful than many attacks, which doesn't apply in certain cases, such as SA pumped attacks.))
-
Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
I thought it was overpowered...
Ok, that means x3 then for BAB of 11 for three attacks. 75 damage is still good, but not as nauseating as 150. Thanks, AK!

Re: When The Avatara Walk the Earth....
Sslag stood up.
Well, then. That was invigorrating, but I believe we have a busy day tomorrow. I'm going to get something to eat.
With that, he strode out of the room leaving Sasach and Uranus.
(yet another shameless attempt to the story moving along, since we hit a road block, it seems. And yes, I know Sslag has a ring of sustenance, but he likes to eat anyway.)
