Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas once again endured the blistering winds from Aurora's attack, not expecting it to persist so long. He wasn't knocked down at all (Fort save 31 in Dice thread), but he was feeling parched and it was slowing him down significantly. Thankfully the power of Haste was still in effect and he managed to move out of the area relatively quickly to J16. "Okay...I'll admit, that was pretty annoying. I'm parched, a little woozy, but I am in no way ready to give up!" he announced. He certainly wasn't expecting Aurora to have the ability to fly. His only hope was to continue to endure until she exhausted her spellcasting abilities. Now that he was closer to her, he could still attempt to ping her with an arrow if nothing else.

"Good," Aurora said, smiling brightly. "I'd be crushingly disappointed if you gave up already!"
Aurora grunted softly as Markas' arrow found its mark.
The centaur smiled again, feeling bolstered by the cheering crowd.
"You like arrows, huh? Me too!"

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
"More like I wasn't expecting you to be part Pegasus," Markas joked back, but when the volley of arrows reached him, most of them bounced harmlessly off his armor, however one hit its mark, and surprised him with a jolt, "And since I can't fly, well, do the best I can with what I have. And what I have is infinite ammo, and the stubborness of a Dwarven Stonelord!" he boasted before releasing another volley at his opponent...

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
All but one of Markas' arrows were deflected by the invisible barrier. The one that got through bounced harmlessly across her horsey rump.
"This bow is supposed to have infinite ammo, too," she said, giving the bow an aggravated shake. (4 rounds without ammo.) Aurora felt the crowd's disappointment in her screw-ups and felt a bit deflated.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
As the arrows missed their mark, Markas suddenly shouted an unspeakable curse in Giant (learned from Umbear of course) and dropped his bow as Aurora descended. The bowstring had cut into his thumb deeply, the pain making it feel useless for a moment, but before he could react further, Aurora's blast of wind pummeled into him, but his perserverance prevailed and he was barely touched by the strong gale. Now that his opponent was on the ground, it was time to go on the offensive Still under the power of Haste, Markas moved 45' to I 25, drawing his Halberd as he did so, and struck at the Centaur, playing close attention to her strong legs...

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas was jolted a little from Aurora's attack, but thankfully she was still close enough for him to reach, he took a five foot step east, though she was floating above him, he knew he could press his attack, "I'll admit Aurora, you're full of surprises. I had no idea what to expect when fighting against you, but no matter who comes out on top, I want to make sure I gave it my all!" he announced as he pressed his attack...

(1d20+8)[26] Damage if hits: (1d10+3)[6]
After he swung his halberd, Markas noticed the bleeding in his thumb stopped...it still pained him severely and it would be harder to use a bow for a while, had he not dropped his bow earlier, "probably taken by that gust of wind and pushed into that cyclone anyway," he thought.
He finished with a flourish of his weapon.

The first swing was a glancing blow that didn't have any effect. The second found its mark and Aurora flinched. The other two blows couldn't penetrate the centaur's defenses.
"Aha, so what you're saying is, you were shocked!" Aurora joked, eyes sparkling. "Wanna know something else shocking?"
Aurora kicked down at him with her pale, shining hooves.
Attack 1: (1d20+21)[28]

Then the centaur ascended east at a 45 degree angle again (5' step) so that she was at a 10' elevation.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Aurora's first attack glanced harmlessly off of his armor, but the second one knocked him in the head and sent another jolt through his body, "I think you'll earn a new nickname after this bout with all the wind and lightning you're using..." he muttered, "Oh no, you can still fly and I can't reach you and lost my bow...what ever shall I do?..SURPRISE!" he shouted as he picked a tanglefoot bag from his belt and tossed it at the Centaur!

"Ugh!" Aurora said as the bag of goo exploded open on her. She laughed. "Alright, I'll admit it, I wasn't expecting that! I knew you picked them up, but I admit to being surprised that you used one now," she said, shaking her head and smiling. She remained aloft without difficulty.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Right when Markas retrieved his bow, he heard Aurora shout at him almost cheerfully as she unleashed her attack. Although two of her arrows missed, the others hit him with near-perfect precision and they HURT! "Guess...that's why she sounded...so cheerful," he grumbled to himself, "well BACK AT YOU!" he shouted as he returned fire.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas shuddered for a moment when that loud thunderclap hit him. Fortunately it sounded worse than it felt (Fort Save 35 in dice roller) and he was still standing. "You made my ears ring! That wasn't very nice," he grinned at his opponent. He wished he had more up his sleeve but with her still in the air he was down to the one option. His stubbornness and pride wouldn't allow him to let up even if the audience may find this boring at this point...

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Aurora winced again as the Markas' last shot made it through her barrier and landed a direct hit. That shot had more power behind it than the previous one! The cylinder of hot air over the western starting block dissipated.
Line AoE duration: 12 rounds.Spoiler: DMBlessing of Fervor: Make one extra attack as part of a full attack action, using its highest base attack bonus. 1 round remaining.
Aurora lifted into the air as she moved 5' west, to an altitude of 5'. (5' step.)
"Yes, the wind and I have come to an understanding," she said with a wink. "It blew me out of my homeland to chase demons! What called you from your home, Markas?"
She took aim with her own bow and fired at Markas again.
Attack 1: (1d20+26)[46] <-- Crit, 40 to confirm, 28 additional damage.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas actually grunted in pain as he took severe impact from Aurora's arrows. He looked at the one that missed him with wide eyes, sure that if it had hit, this battle would have been over. Breathing hard he replied to his opponent, "What drives me...To battle? Nothing...So mystical...Like the wind...Just...The simple...Desire...to protect... Protect the ones....Who can't protect themselves!" With that he unleashed one last volley at the Centaur!

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Blunted arrows bounced off Aurora's barrier, except one, which simply tangled in the borrowed robe she wore.
"Ah, nobility. Nobility may be less mystical, but I would say it is far more voluntary. Not that I regret things or would choose anything else in hindsight, but even so!"
Line AoE duration: 11 rounds.Spoiler: DMBlessing of Fervor: Gain a +2 bonus on attack rolls and a +2 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. 0 rounds remaining.
"If you are so close to defeat, I am concerned about continuing to use the bow, so I will instead do this," she said, lifting her hand to fling a small amount of fine sand into the air again.
Spoiler: Sylvan"Fire and wind of my desert home, descend and wear down my opponent!"
A fresh blast of hot air descended on Markas in a 20' radius, in a cylinder that extended 60' in the air. The blast did (4d6+13)[28] fire damage and was strong enough to knock Markas right off his feet! (DC 22 fortitude save to halve damage and negate being knocked prone.) The heat and pressure of the desert wind was every bit as exhausting as the first time (but Markas is already exhausted, so it doesn't matter).
AoE duration: 13 rounds.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas tried to withstand the heat and wind of Aurora's attack, but even after successfully bracing against the wind, it was the heat that finally got him and he fell to the ground in the center of Aurora's maelstrom...

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Aurora quickly made a flicking motion, dismissing the cylinder of hot air.
Warrick flew down into the arena and nodded at Aurora, who cast 'Dispel' on the line of wind.
"Good job," he said as acolytes rushed into the arena to gather up Markas and take him down to the pit.
"Ladies and gentlemen, your winner!" he boomed.
The audience applauded and cheered while Aurora bent one foreleg and stretched the other forward so she could bow. Performance combat check (vanquish opponent): (1d20+9)[28] Warrick patted her rump and pointed towards the pit, ignoring her disgruntled expression.
Down in the pit, the aides were bustling about, and a handful of acolytes surrounded Markas as they peppered him with healing spells. A few more came forward to bombard Aurora too, despite her protests that she could heal herself just fine.
"Alright you two," Warrick said, "it's time to go back out and take your bows and speak if you want."
The Master at Arms led them both back out into the arena and to the center where they'd stood for the start of the match.
"Ladies and gentlemen! I hope our dazzling heroes impressed you with their show of strength today! It was quite an interesting match-up, I'd say! I hope you all enjoyed the bout and the display of skill and tenacity both of these fine heroes showed. It was quite impressive how Aurora was able to gain control of her opponent's movement from the start, but it was equally impressive how Markas persisted in the face of that initial disadvantage! Truly, he is a hero we are blessed to have fighting to protect us!" Perform oratory: (1d20+36)[47] Warrick paused to allow the audience to applaud and cheer some more, and after a moment when they'd quieted down, he lifted his arm on Aurora's side.
"And now, I present to you, your victor for this bout: AURORA CENTAUROI!" Warrick waggled his fingers slightly to indicate Aurora should fly up to be seen better, and clapped his other hand on Markas' shoulder.
"We should talk technique later," the half-elf murmured to the human fighter. "I have some pointers for you."
Aurora manifested her wings again and spiraled up to about a 30' altitude.
"Thank you, all of you, for coming out to see the match today," the centaur said, spreading her arms. "I had a very worthy opponent and found it to be a very enjoyable match. I hope you enjoyed watching it as much as I enjoyed participating! I am honored to be returning to this tournament for the second time, and my only goal is to make it further this year than I did last year."
"It is truly a blessing to be able to come here and stand amongst and against heroes of equal and greater caliber and be given the opportunity to test my strength and skill with them. I learn so much from this event, both in and out of the arena! That is, to me, far more valuable than even the prizes offered. And that is why, win or lose, I am content merely to be present for this and able to engage! Thank you all so much! May the winds blow ever in your favor!" Aurora's humanoid torso bent forward low, arms spread wide, as she bowed. Diplomacy: (1d20+20)[21] Perform oratory: (1d20+5)[23] The centaur descended to the ground once more and turned to smile brightly at Markas.
"Thank you for the excellent match! I was quite pleased, and I hope you also enjoyed it," she said, holding out her hand to him.Last edited by Wolfykins; 2017-04-02 at 11:18 PM.

Re: (IC) Festival of Heroes - Jousting Arena
Markas woke up suddenly from the multiple healing spells that Warrick's aides provided, "That's better," he said softly before Warrick led them back out. He appreciated the MC's speech praising both of them, but still felt a little down, "Pointers?" he asked at his offer, "I guess..." "A 40-year-old veteran being offered pointers...am I getting too old for this?" he thought. He did smile at Aurora's speech as well, her reasons for participating similar to his own. He then realized that the audience was awaiting his own words after Aurora was finished.
"Good people of Juvelnord!" Markas began, "I felt the greatest honor in being invited to this tournament for the first time. I have battled many strong monsters, stood alone against small armies, but never have I faced an adversary as tenacious as Aurora Centauroi. Her victory was well deserved. I too have learned from this bout and for that I will be forever grateful to my most worthy opponent. Wish her victory in her future matches!" He then took his own bow
Diplmocay check: (1d20+3)[16]
He then took Aurora's hand and gave it a firm clasp, "Enjoy the rest of the tournament," he said before departing.Festival of Heroes
