Yeah but flapjack, if I read right the eyes are glowing. I may be mistaken, but things with glowing eyes die in my book. Lol. Sorry for being so rash.

fear not, good sir - if its what ya character would do then i consider it fair game

in all fairness - dead bodies/pools of blood/glowing red eyes... its probably evil and we're meant to squash it with as many sharp/bludgeony/slashy things as we can find to stick in it

young logan is still a bit niave for now, but give him time and im sure he'll quickly realise the world is full things that need to be hit first and questioned later

Talus:
Well, they better be showing their friendly intentions veerryy clearly. We're missing several people, afterall.
Talus moves forward with his bow drawn, but holds his fire, waiting for a better shot.

Double more forward, going 1 square forward, one square diagonal left forward, and the remaining 6 forward. This is assuming that I'm the orange circle in the first row, next to the blue one.

Also, Bangles, can you go 7 squares in one move action? That's 35ft, and I thought you were in armor.

Forgot the armour rule - and its only 6 squares first diagonal = 5ft second = 10ft.

If the DM would be so kind - knock me 2 squares back.

Lethe OoC:

Lethe is allowed to move for this round still, even though I've run all the stats. I'll fix it so she has her say. So two rounds worth next post please.

Albect OoC:

Spoiler

Show

You are uable to take two standard action in the same round, so only one attack. If you'd like to move up while you're reloading, let me know.

Logan's attemtps at diplomacy are met with nothing but a feral sounding growl, though the creature (that appears to be a wolf) doesn't move from behind the statue.

Jay winds up, throwing an incredible shot, sticking her javelin into the creature. It is met with a yelp of pain, but it stays still, as if waiting for something. Albect's bolt ricochettes off the statue, unable to match the feat of Jay's javelin.

Albect will Advance once again, getting 30 feet closer to the opponent. (am I the purple dot?)

For every bolt I waste on this thing, I am going to bash its skull in. Albect seems different, ( yet again ). His personality everchanging he prepares to set off yet another shot from his crossbow.

Dirk
Initiative: 13
HP: 14 / 14 [♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥]
AC: 20 (15 Touch)

Dirk hurries forward to keep up with his advancing companions.

[[Are you friendly, or are you hungry?]] He yaps in Draconic, followed by Undercommon, followed at last by Abyssal. After speaking in the tongue of demons, he shoots glances at his companions, wondering if they're judging him.

Suddenly inspired by what he just said, he pulls a pouch of rations and throws it towards the creature, hoping to land it as close as possible.

Surprisingly, he manages to throw it a mere 10-15 feet from the statue.

Spoiler

Show

Move : 5 North -> 1 Northeast (Beside Jayletina) + Retrieve Stowed Item (Rations)
[I'm not sure if this is mechanically legal, but sifting through a backpack while running isn't exactly impossible, and you can draw a weapon as part of a move if your base attack bonus is +1 or higher.] If not, I guess I'll throw it next round after moving a bit closer.

Standard : Ranged Touch Attack

Food Toss - (1d20-4)[11](7) (Ranged Touch, 5 range increments {-10 penalty}) Targeted at the closest possible grid square (AC 5). The square three below, and one to the right of the statue.
Deviation Direction - (1d8)[1] : 5 squares.

[MeklorIlavator]

Talus:
Talus continues forward, stowing his crossbow and reading his glaive as he does so.

Spoiler

Move forward 4 squares. Stow crossbow. Draw Glaive.

I assume that we're supposed to post when we can. If that's not true, sorry, and you can disregard this post if you wish.

Sorry for the delay guys. My brother came round yesterday and asked if he could use the computer for 20 minutes. He was on it for the rest of the blinking day. *sigh*

After hearing Jayletina shout, Lethe's eyes snapped toward the statue before flicking towards the two prone bodies. She licked her lips. Gods, that doesn't look good.

She started towards the two bodies while firing her crossbow at the glowing eyes.

Round One

Spoiler

Show

Move forward one diagonal space to the right and the rest straight forward.

Attack - (1d20+5)[22]

Round Two

Move forward one diagonal space to the right and the rest straight forward.

Attack - (1d20+5)[24]
Damage - (1d8)[3]

[Rodgin]

(No worries. Like I said, one post a day is what I expect and we're well beyond that.)

Lethe's first shot also ricochettes away, carroming off the statue as well. Albect's next shot finds its mark, dropping the animal in its hiding place. Everyone moves forward slowing a little as the apparent threat is dropped.

Dirk:

Spoiler

Show

Didn't throw your food, as the creature was killed before your initiative.

Lethe:

Spoiler

Show

Didn't fire your second shot. Readied an action instead. Let me know if you're not happy with the result.

As the wolf looking creature drops, another howl picks up, and a second one charges out from behind the other statue, closing on Lethe. Letting another shot loose, she sticks a bolt into it, but it doesn't stop its charge. Snapping at her, the wolf misses. Lethe the Rogue, lives up to her name.

From behind a gravestone next to the mausoleum, another wolf, this one darker and larger, with intelligent looking eyes, lopes forward, using the gravestones as cover.

Lethe chided herself as she rcovered from the wolf's surprise attack. Stupid, stupid Lethe. Wolves hunt in packs. PACKS!


Her hand snatches for her rapier and uses it to stab at the animal, before slowly backing off.

((I should've moved 8 squares forward - before lethe moved forward the second time. - so i should be on line with the wolf most towards us infact right next to it on its left. - assuming i get an AoO as it charges Lethe - if i don't and you want me to stay where I am ill just delete all this.

AoO - (1D20+6)[18] - vs its AC-4 assuming it actually charged (-2 from flanking)
Damage - (1D8+4)[5]

Turn 3.

If the wolf is still up after my AoO ill attack that, if not ill move diagonally left and up the map 2 squares - 15ft and left 1 square - 20ft total and attack the other wolf - same rolls for both depending upon whether the first is alive after my AoO.

Attack - (1D20+6)[12] - this is Wolfs AC-2 if its the one with lethe, otherwise its the clever looking one.
Damage - (1D8+4)[5]

Dirk

AC: 20 (15 Touch)

Dirk hurries forward to join the fray and help his new companions. "Lethe! Are you alright?" He yelps. Seeing as how Lethe and Jayletina have one wolf cornered, he decides to help Albect instead, conjuring a black beam that appears to be made of fog, wreathed in purple. It streaks towards the wolf behind the gravestone, screeching with an unearthly howl.

Spoiler

Show

Even if I didn't get to throw my food, I still would have liked to move. So unless these new arrivals appear immediately following the original's death, I should be next to Jay on the map. If so, for round three I would like to move in front of Talus. If not, next to Jay.

[move taken as per actual position discussed via PM - ie: 4 squares north of position shown on map]

also - i know its odd to post 2 attack commands, but im accounting for 2 possibilities that may occur by the time it reaches my Initiative

(1) If the wolf threatening Lethe is somehow still standing after the barage of assault from Jay:

The cleric sees his valiant new companions bravely battling the wolf, and moves to assist their efforts

Spoiler

Show

move north 4 squares

[rollv = attack]1d20+4[/roll]
[rollv = damage]1d8+2[/roll]

(2) if lethe and jay slay the wolf - and with those damage rolls they probably will

seeing his new companions heroically slash and the stab the wolf to bits the cleric moves forward, the cleric spies a new and possibly more menacing foe near were the original wolf-like being lays dead, he bravely advanced forward, calling

"Holy pelor, bringer of light... let me and the good fellows who i travel with triumph with your blessing"

Spoiler

Show

more 4 forwards

cast BLESS - so everyone gets +1 morale bonus to attack and +1 on saving throws against fear effects for the next SIX ROUNDS.

Spoiler

attack (1d20+4)[3](7)

seems i won't be jumping on the crit hit bandwagon just yet - and if that wolf is still alive then by pelor its a monsterous beast ;)

[MeklorIlavator]

Talus:
The appearance of the wolves surprises Talus, but upon seeing that the one attacking Lethe is being taken care of, he shifts his attention the the third one.

Spoiler

Show

Move closer to the third wolf, if possible charge:
attack(1d20+9)[22]
damage(1d10+6)[13]

If I charge, my AC becomes 19 until my next turn.

In any case, should the creature attempt to move through squares I threaten(remember to factor in reach), Talus makes an AOO:
attack(1d20+7)[13]
If the attack hits, the creature must make a reflex save vs DC (1d10+16)[25], or come to a stop.

[Rodgin]

(So, after much confusion, we made it!)

Jay steps in, taking a chunk of hide from the offending wolf. Coupled with Lethe and Logan, the wolf falls, wimpering before going limp.

Albect leaps forward, letting another bolt fly at the big black looking wolf. The bolt sinks deep in the creatures eye, dropping it in its tracks. Anotehr few moments of silence, and nothing else moves.

(Combat over. 150 EXP per. Make sure to remove ammo from your character sheets.)

[mangy_mathan]

Dirk

Dirk glances around quickly. "Is anyone hurt?" Once he realizes that no one is hurt except for perhaps a scratch or two on Lethe, he hunches over and flips up his hood. He appears to be trying to hide his face from the group, Logan in particular.

"Uh, nice work everyone. Let's keep going." He mutters, and hurries to check on the bodies, wondering if they are still alive.

Lethe

Lethe quickly stows her crossbow and rapier before turning to Logan.

"You're a healer right?"

Without waiting for an answer, she grabs him by the wrist and hurries him up the steps towards the bodies.

[DMBlackhart]

Albect

AHAHAHA!! YES!! Albect then moves over to the wolf he shot in the eye. And without much hesitation begins to sever its head, keeping the bolt in place.

This...yeah this right here, is a trophy!! Im going to have the tavern hang this on their wallCOLOR] An over excentric smile on albects face. He then reloads the clip on his rapidcrossbow.

[Bangles]

Jayletina

"I've fought off tougher bandits than that.

Pathetic attempt wolfies, lets go see if thats all there was."

First walking over to the very first engaged wolf, she bends down to investigate whether the javelin is still intact ((Normally a 50/50 chance - DM's call))

Then she walks up to stand guard over Logan and the two bodies - facing into the crypt assuming someone wlil take the back.

[xPANCAKEx]

Logan

Looking around a bit bewildered and shocked, logan shuffles after Lethe over to the bodies

"erm... i possess certain healing powers if they can be of any use..... if any of them are still alive? can we save them?!?

what were those things that attacked us?
