Mines of Eshina IC thread

[Altaria87]

OOC: Do I still have control on my turn, or will I be stuck screaming?

[Balthazar]

Oh you don't have control. The good news is you may not be screaming. Just attacking people. :) I just put screaming in as a side-effect? of the confusion.

[Wind d8/d12]

Claes's eyes widen, apparently the buffing spell was a bad idea.

[Altaria87]

OOC: Great, confusion, how do you get rid of it (been ages since I've read the spell description)

[Balthazar]

Wait 8 rounds. There's probably some spell. Heal I think.

[Altaria87]

OOC: Ah well, the rest of the party will have to restrain me... Or hope that the d100 comes up with me attacking the hulk (I have my warhammer drawn by the way)

[Omegonthesane]

Michael decided he might as well take charge, in the absence of the obvious leader. "Grishpot try dealing with Solomon! Danath with me!" Since Solidem had so kindly attacked the... thing, attracting its attention, Michael ran up to the other side of it and poked with his rapier.
Attack Roll (1d20+6)[19]
Normal damage (1d6+1)[7]
Sneak Attack damage (3d6)[12]

[pcamp88]

"Finally..."

Danath approaches the umber hulk and strikes with his greatsword.

Attack: (1d20+11)[16]
Damage: (2d6+6)[17]

[Wind d8/d12]

(On my Initiative) Claes moves to the Umber Hulk and draws the Illuminating scimitar as part of the move. Claes Attacks at the back of it's segmented knees and tries to pull it off it's feet. (Claes has Imp. Trip and if the Trip Attempt is successful gets a free melee attack at the prone enemy.
ROLLS:
Touch attack To Trip: (1d20+3)[19]

If successful free attack (1d20+6)[16] (1d6+3)[8] Note that the Hulk's AC will be less because it is prone.

OOC:About to go afk for a few hours, I'll set aside 5 charges of my CLW wand for the DM to use in my stead.

[Jair Barik]

OOC: i'm pretty sure I get a turn before Claes goes again...

Well assuming it's not dead

IC: Grishgot mutters a quick prayer to his God and charges the creature, axe drawn.

((He said on his initiative - his post happens just after yours.))

[Jair Barik]

OOC: yeah noticed that shortly after posting.
Pity its not a humanoid. I really want to use clutch of Orcus on something

[Balthazar]

Joey's hit lands true, but since the monster's in a corner, you can't flank it, and get no sneak attack. Danath misses. Solomon screams incoherently and attacks Girshpot, who since he hadn't moved is the closest. His warhammer whooshes past the cleric's head. Grishgot then attacks the Hulk, scoring a solid hit for 12 damage. So the tactical layout is like this:

|
|
-------------
With Smiley being Solidem, Cool being Joey, Furious being Grishgot, and Tongue being Danath.
Claes trip hits, but you have to make an opposed strength check, right? The Hulk rolls a 9, you roll a natural 20, confirmed, you kick out the back of his knees, making him prone for an extra turn.. Your attack then misses.
Solidem then attacks again, missing.
The monster lies prone, struggling to stand up.
Phew! Over to you Joey.
I'm going to be gone for about 3 hours, sorry. Also, sorry that this took so long to respond, wasn't notified.

[Jair Barik]

awesome. You captured my characters state of mind perfectly

[Balthazar]

Yeah, I'm back. Michael's turn.

[Wind d8/d12]

Claes grins as the trip connects and through gritted teeth says "I learned to fight with the wolves, and kill with the bears! I'm the shadow at noon and the light among the dark, make your peace, o mockery of nature!"
-------------------------------------------------
OOC
When he stands he is going to get raped on attacks O oppurtunity. Also he is denied his dexterity so a certain little rogue should get in his sneak attack next round.

[Balthazar]

OOC: Oh wow, I just found the combat rules on creature size, and he should have gotten in an attack of opportunity on at least on of you guys. Oh well. Live and learn eh?

[Wind d8/d12]

OOC: you DID say he was a runt :) Maybe he is a Medium sized powerful build umber hulk?

[Balthazar]

Yeah, I considered that, but then only three of you could be attacking him. Not the 5 who currently are. Also, I miscalculated, wind your trip attack hit, so it's at 8 less health.

[Wind d8/d12]

OOC:

Wind D8/D12:Breakdances.

[Balthazar]

Heh, break dancing provokes an attack of opportunity :P
btw, the situation is now like this:

-------
With Solomon standing by the door.

And initiative goes
Cleas
Solidem
Umber Hulk Runt
Joey
Danath
Solomon
Grishpot

[Omegonthesane]

Michael saw little else to do other than take another shot, and hope he struck true this time. Not even time to shake his head at Grishgot ignoring his advice to deal with Solomon first. He briefly considered taking out Solomon, but the hulk was the bigger threat.

To Hit (1d20+6)[24]
Damage (1d6+1)[4]

EDIT: Whooo! Critical threat!
Rolled confirm and bonus damage here.

[Altaria87]

During his madness Solomon just manages to think I am sorry, everyone before he once again decends into insanity after looking at the gaze of pure hatred.

[Jair Barik]

When my turn: Hefting his axe Grishgot brought his axe down upon the Umber hulk

To hit (1d20+6)[19] damage (1d10+4)[10]

[Balthazar]

Michael's trike hits true, stabbing the wounded beast straight through its left top eye. It screams in fury, and it's claws start flailing wildly.

[Balthazar]

Well it's not your turn (I know, rolling ahead), but your turn comes around again before his, so he won't be standing up yet. I don't believe you can trip as an attack of opportunity. Also, he won't be standing up on his turn will he?

[Omegonthesane]

((My guess is he's going to melee at whatever penalty rather than get up... if a prone large thing can melee squares right next to it what with the whole 10' reach thing. Or be dead before his turn comes about, I dunno. *offers up dice for the dice god and rules for the rule throne*))

[Balthazar]

Well I grow bored of waiting for pccamp, so I'm going to assume that he's delaying until he actually does something.
Solomon screams, and attacks Danath, charging with his warhammer high, connecting solidly, and does 11 damage to him.
OOC: Also, I totally just realized that the skeletons had damage reduction 5/bludgeoning. That should have gone on longer >.<

[pcamp88]

OOC: Sorry, forgot to mention I was at work. XD


Danath will attack the the umber hulk again:
