Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Seri
Without any armor, all of the Vrock's attacks connect. Each claw and talon knocks her around, but once the Vrock is finished she simply picks herself up. Even if left a bit shaken and wincing, she turns to the Vrock with a smile. "Odd isn't it? Yeah, you're not what you used to be, and its only downhill from here..."
"Cold? Yeah, you're going to feel this!" Her shield ready, she taps into her armbands to make use of the curse she'd cast on it. She keeps an eye on Nevi, knowing he'd be able to take the stand off of him in a second and ready to make use of any opening he creates. She was glad to have drawn the bird's attention though, he'd seen better days.
Fimbul, on the other hand, was having a blast. She only saw the Vrock in front of her as prey. The cart thrown against her had pinned her, but done little beyond that. She pushes it off her and lunges at the Vrock in a single, feral movement.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Dretch continue falling all around, civilians continue rushing out of the marketplace. Karamandes eliminates the dretches surrounding Gabriel, giving him a clear swing at the vrock looming over him; Gabriel's blade bites deep into his vrock's flesh. At the south end of the market, one vrock has time for one final squawk before its demise: Percy's thrust skewers it against the wagon on top of Nevi, holding it in place for Dwomak to wear it down and Seri to finish it off. Just as she does so, Nevi and Fimbul manage to topple the wagon and table on top of them, Nevi crushing the last surviving dretch near the party and Fimbul taking a chunk out of the vrock still reeling from Wogg's sonic onslaught. The two vrocks who manage to avoid being targeted swoop in to the attack.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Sir Gonen
Gonen watches in surprise as all the demons surrounding Gabriel fall, then takes a step towards the Vrock flying next to him, swinging hi chain towards it, and murmuring "Let's finish this, shall we?"
Dwomak jumps towards the large flying demon near him, clawing at it with all four legs.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Seri
As the defeated Vrock vanishes, Seri takes a deep breath and shakes her right arm, as if trying to cool it. "That was good... Only a few more now... Just a few..." Suddenly she shakes her head. It seems to help. "Alright, next!" Nevi crouches for an instant that Seri uses to hitch a ride. The pair then leap towards the Vrock to the north of them and attack in unison, the ghostly hound behind them.
Further north, Fimbul finally takes a hit, but isn't too fazed. She leaps back at the Vrock with renewed ferocity.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Gabriel
Though the Vrock's slashes would have hit any other man, the energy permeating Gabriel's being allows him to dodge the attacks with ease--as if time itself were slowed for him.
Again, Gabriel's eyes glow as arcane energy suffuses his blade. He lashes out in a fury against the Vrock beside him.
SpoilerSwift Action--Cast Wraithstrike, so all attacks this round count as touch attacks.
Free Action--Activate the Arcane Strike Feat, burning one of his level 3 prepared spells for the day (Keen Edges) in exchange for a +3 to all attacks for the round and +3d4 to damage per hit.
Power Attack--Gripping Slayer (Cold Iron +1 Evil Outsider Bane Longsword), -9 to attacks, +18 to damage, for all attacks this round.
Full attack on the Vrock beside him, all touch attacks:
AC: 26
HP: 50/77
Attack 1: (1d20+10)[16]

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
The last dretch, scurrying away in fear, keels over with a gurgle as Karamandes's arrow finds its mark. The mostly-unwounded vrock in the center of the market dodges Seri's and Nevi's attacks with a mocking cackle only to find itself nearly torn to pieces by Gonen's chain and finished off with a jab from Percy; the vrock already partly frozen by Seri's blast of cold is crushed under Dwomak's massive bulk. Gabriel's expert bladework leaves his target in three pieces on the ground. In mere seconds, only a single vrock is left, having escaped the worst of Fimbul's fangs (though being knocked prone by them) and narrowly evaded Wogg's hefty swings.
Glancing quickly between Wogg and Fimbul, the vrock rolls just out of the wolf's reach and spits a few profanities in Abyssal. Wogg's morningstar comes rushing down, but before it can deal a lethal blow the vrock blinks out of existence in a puff of feathers.
SpoilerIt takes a 5-foot step northeast and starts to use its greater teleport SLA.
Wogg's AoO
Attack: (1d20+9)[28]; Damage: (1d8+11)[17]+(1d6)[4]
Crit Confirm, if needed: (1d20+9)[21]; Damage: (1d8+11)[15]+(1d6)[1]
Vrock's Concentration check: (1d20+20)[26]
The crowd has mostly stopped panicking, seeing that you have things well in hand, and have even started coming closer and mocking the demons as they have dropped one by one. Now, they surround you and give cheers and pride and acclaim for your heroic efforts.Last edited by PairO'Dice Lost; 2010-06-11 at 03:28 PM.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Seri
<Giant>"I think that's all of them..."</Giant>
After spending a few moments looking around, Seri breaths a sigh of relief. She shakes her hand until the blue energy flickers and, like a flame, dies out. Still, she keeps it up for a little while longer as she cools the arm. "Yeah... looks like it..." She takes a few deep breaths. The dark hound doesn't react in any way and walks into Seri, leaving no trail.
Watching her prey blink away, Fimbul gives chase until she right where it left. Snarling, she looks around frantically in the off chance it was still here. Finding no scent she starts muttering obscenities in her native tongue, gives Wogg a quick glare and heads back to the group.
<Giant>"Damn it! We could have gotten him if you two had just followed, what kept you?!"
"We were needed here, besides, the screech-"
"Oh come on! it wasn't that bad how long am I gonna have to watch over you two anyway?! If I..."</Giant>
Seri just dismounts and lets them argue, she still had to find her axe. The cheers felt good, but she was still rather uneasy. She avoided looking north and tried to concentrate. Anything that would get her mind off things was good. She turns to the others and fiddles with some wands in her pack. "Ok... things could have gone worse. Is everyone whole?"Last edited by Ryuuk; 2010-06-11 at 07:22 PM.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Karamandes
"Whole as a gem. They didn't even touch me.", Karamandes says as he slings the bow back over his shoulder, and counts the number of arrows remaining in his quiver, replacing the one he fired at the last demon.
"Now.", he says, stretching his drawing arm, as if it were a bit stiff after the battle. "Does anyone think this was something more than a random attack by the demons? Demons aren't the greatest strategists on the planes, but if this was actually directed at us, we have a reason to be worried."Halfling healer avatar by Akrim.elf.

Seri
As she draws a wand, Fimbul and Nevi come and join her. The tip glows in a warm light and slowly the wounds that where left by the spores, carts and claws start fading. She closes her eyes and focuses on the wand while Percy speaks. "It just seemed like they wanted to do as much damage as possible, maybe they followed the refugees?"

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Gabriel
The blur of energy surrounding Gabriel diminishes somewhat as the last vrock escapes. He flicks his wrist, sending droplets of demon blood sizzling into the stone of the marketplace, and returns his weapon to its sheath; he touches a hand to his chest, where the vrock's claws found purchase between the cracks in his armor, and it comes out slick with his own blood.
[Abyssal]"Not so different, are we?"[/Abyssal]
He shakes the blood off his hand, reaches down and taps a stud at his belt twice.
SpoilerActivate Healing Belt twice, using 1 charge each:
(2d8)[8]
(2d8)[11]
As the wounds knit together, Gabriel withdraws a small kit from his satchel. Taking a small dagger from it, he slices off three of the vrock's claws; he then places the dagger and the claws in the case, closes it, and rises, moving towards the others just in time to catch the end of the conversation.
"They were trying to kill everyone here; they nearly did." He shakes his head. "Which means that whatever sanctuary this place once offered has now been compromised. These people--" he gestures to the amassed townfolk, lowering his voice "will need to leave before the next pack gets luckier."

Sir Gonen
Gonen begins cleaning his chain as he walks back towards the group. He taps his belt in much the same fashion as Gabriel did.
"I suspect this attack may have been planned. It seems unlikely that they happened to attack at a time when there were so many people in a small area."

"I agree, Gabriel, we need to get these people out of here, and warn them to not gather in these numbers any time soon."

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Percy
I'll see what I can do to address these good people. Percy says to Karamandes as he climbs up onto a piece of debris overlooking the crowd.
Good people, listen to me! The demons are gone for now, and we must take this opportunity to take cover! Please, remain calm and evacuate the area! We don't know if there will be more coming, or when. PLease, get to safety and do not, under any circumstances, gather in large groups! Get yourselves to safety, and my companions and I shall deal with this demonic threat to our land! In the name of the Rose, I swear will will put an end to this blight, and the demons shall learn to fear our names! This I swear, L'epine de la Rose!
SpoilerDice, should I roll anything here, like a diplomacy or rally check? Please let me know.Avatar by Doran Liadon

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
SpoilerNo roll necessary in this particular case; they're already smitten with you guys after what you did.
The people in the crowd cheer the name of the Rose, and their frantic efforts to exit the area become somewhat more orderly. About ten minutes later, the market is clear and the nearby streets are absolutely empty, everyone having gone home and taken your advice to not congregate in groups to heart.

"Pretty much what we did, isn't it?"
"There's a pretty big difference."
"What?"
"We know how to hunt while the lowlanders were getting mauled by the ugly hunchbacks. If small numbers call small spirits, they're still going to die."
"Percy seems to know what he's doing though, he's one of them and he could handle himself just fine with a sword in his hand."
"They'd better draw those swords then."
</Giant>
Seri finishes healing the last of Nevi's wounds with Fimbul snickering to the side. She puts the wand away and heads towards Percy. "That was pretty good. How do you suggest we put an 'end to this blight' though?"Last edited by Ryuuk; 2010-06-14 at 03:25 PM.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
Gabriel
Gabriel stands back, arms crossed, while Percy addresses the crowd. A small smirk crosses the elf's face as the younger man makes his oath to the crowd.
[Abyssal]"If only it were possible for demons to fear,"[/Abyssal] he mutters softly to himself.
As Percy's speech ends and the crowd begins to hurriedly disperse, Gabriel approaches the others.
"This city may well be indefensible, now that the demons have tasted some of its charms. We might try to strike out from this place, but I'm less than convinced that the guards here will be capable of staving off even a probing attack."
Spoiler
I'm curious to know if the area could somehow be warded via a spell/ritual of some sort. Gabriel knows the Magic Circle spell, and I'm wondering if it could be modified to provide a kind-of temporary sanctuary here. Should I roll for it?

"It might be a better idea to simply press on. I don't like it any more than you do, but offering resistance here is as likely to draw more demons here as it is to help. We are on a quest that might deal the demonic invasion a real blow, and I don't think we are doing these people any favours by fighting the demons inside their town."Halfling healer avatar by Akrim.elf.

Re: When You Stare Into The Abyss... IC
SpoilerWhat kind of sanctuary is Gabriel thinking of? Anti-teleportation, anti-demon, both of the above, none of the above?

"So just keep going as planned?" She took one last look at the now empty streets. Upturned carts, unlucky civilians, frozen lumps... It was strange to think that this could be the norm now, that this sort of thing happened every day and people just kept moving as usual. usual had changed a lot since the mountains melted. She nods towards Fimbul and Nevi. "Then I we'd better get to the docks."Will be edited by Ryuuk : Sometime in the future.

Yes, I agree. Percy says, surveying the situation. The best thing we can do to save things people is cut off this invasion at the source. Let's make for the docks.Avatar by Doran Liadon
