Fight ALL the bosses! - IC
You approach the cabin cautiously, aware of the violent tendencies of the men you've tracked this far and none too eager to have it visited upon yourselves. The cabin and surrounding areas are quiet, and the inside is dark save the dim light of a few candles you can just barely make out through the grimy windows.
Spoiler
You aren't in initiative order yet. How do you want to proceed? Tree spaces are difficult terrain should it become relevant.Last edited by Shadebinder; 2013-03-18 at 06:22 AM.

Loranys moves forward, a wand in her left hand and a tanglefoot bag in her right. She pauses, her lips drawn into a pout, as she awaits her companions' actions.
SpoilerMove forward 20' and ready to cast Wall of Smoke at the door the moment it opens. Wand of Grease in hand, tanglefoot bag in the other.

Vlad, long spear in hand, starts to make his way to the back side of the cabin. He's warded his companions from the fire that burns within him. He's itching to get rid of these thieves.

**Tip** Is it possible to put letters and numbers onto the grid? Might help when moving to just say move to L# verses "5ft diagonal top left and 15 left"Avatars-Avatars designed by Ceika

For we wield, the righteous flaaaaaames of justice! Archibald finishes his (utterly abysmal) song, smirking as his own longsword and the weapons of his allies burst into flames. Ready, lads? Oh, and lady.

Samuel will move silently until he's 15 feet away from the door. He'll then wait until he hears the tell tale sign of his fire breathing companion before he does anything else.

Re: Fight ALL the bosses! - IC
As the rest of the party readies themselves for the coming fight, Vladmir circles around the cabin. Moments later an entire corner of the cabin is ablaze, door and all. Apparently not all of the inhabitants of the cabin were asleep however, for a cry goes up scarcely a second after the flames take hold of the log siding. After some muffled cursing, the other door is flung open, revealing one of the bandits standing in the doorway, sword in hand. His eyes open wide at the sight of the rest of the party apparently ready and waiting for that very action.
Spoiler
Each of the bandits is carrying a shortsword and is wearing leather armor. The bandit king (the unique token) is technically currently out of sight of the party, but since you'll see him shortly it hardly matters. His shortsword is of finer make than the others and his leather armor is reinforced with thin discs of steel.
You lost initiative, but all of the bandits' actions were consumed by standing, drawing weapons, or opening the door. Your move.Last edited by Shadebinder; 2013-03-18 at 06:22 AM.

Vlad, happy with the way the cabin is starting to burn, runs as fast as his short legs can carry him back towards the front of the house, wary of the flames that he's started.

Samuel sneers but doesn't say anything charging forward the moment the door opens. The shortspear tears through the man in an explosion of pure force and fire sending charred bits of viscera across the back of the room.

Re: Fight ALL the bosses! - IC
It hardly seems possible, but Samuel does indeed make one of the bandits quite literally explode, aided by Archibald's magic. Archibald's own attack proves slightly less fruitful, hacking weakly at what remains of the unfortunate man.
Three of the remaining bandits pour out of and into the doorway, coughing at the thick smoke suddenly present. One of them doubles over in a fit of choking coughs as he stumbles free, but the other two seem to weather its effects with little harm, circling around Archibald and seeking to make short work of him.
Inside, the bandit king draws closer and readies his weapon warily, waiting to see the outcome of the melee.
Spoiler
(The two bandits outside provoke AoOs from Archibald and Samuel as they move past. The one on the left came out first and is nauseated. If your AoOs drop both of them, ignore the second attack, reduce the attack rolls by 2, and ignore the precision damage.)
Attacks against Archibald: (1d20+6)[22] for (1d6+2)[8] +(1d6)[5] precision damage.
(1d20+6)[26] for (1d6+2)[8] + (1d6)[1] precision damage.Last edited by Shadebinder; 2013-03-23 at 05:43 AM.

Re: Fight ALL the bosses! - IC
Samuel had driven his spear so violently through the first guy that he continued the momentum of his attack impaling a second guy onto his spear. Again a burst of flames ignites the man and the two of them are dead before Samuel can even use his mailed boot to kick them off his weapon.
"Really? A smarter man would have thrown down his weapon." Samuel had said when the third man had attacked Archibald instead of begging for his life. Samuel's attack was thrust slowly forward, and the bandit had easily been able to parry the spear away from his vitals. Something about the way Samuel looked at the man, a half smile and a spark in his eyes, indicated that he was playing with the bandit.
Spoiler
When the man in the doorway attacks Archibald, Samuel switches his aura from power to vigor as a swift action (Fast healing 1).
If Archibald is unconscious Samuel will five foot step over his body.
(1d20+4)[9] for (3d6+4)[14] points of damage.
I'll probably save my AoO for the main dude and ignore the side guys this round.

Re: Fight ALL the bosses! - IC
Loranys summons a burst of flame just inside the doorway, catching both the hapless bandit standing there and his nearby captain. Though the wall of smoke she had summoned dissipated, new fumes arose from the blaze she had conjured.
SpoilerLoranys moves north 5' to be within range. She casts a 5' fiery burst just inside the doorway, one square NW of the bandit in the door/standing in front of Archibald, catching both him and the bandit leader.
(2d6)[8] fire damage to each, DC 17 Reflex save for half. Flammable objects are possibly set ablaze.SpoilerCurrent characters:
