The Storm <Team Three>

[Kyeudo]

The Liutenent heads towards the hallway, sword drawn and wary.

Orgeth begins to move into the room, searching the room for anything of intrest. He soon uncovers more droplets of dried blood, leaving a trail towards the hallway.

Yry and Felstashan also enter the room, looking wary but unsure of what course of action to take.

Leon and Feste spot something disconcerting. A vaguely spiderlike form as big as a man lurks on the cieling, scuttling towards Lieutent Carter. The details of its form are hard to make out, as the creature's coloration is near perfectly matched to the wooden cieling behind it.

(Since only Leon and Feste are aware of the creature, there will be a surprise round. The creature also gets to act.)

As nice as it is to be in the game, its Wolfe not Leon who is the PC

Ive also realized that ive not put a spell list down so here it is

0: Cure Minor Woundsx2, Flare
1: Cure Light Wounds, Produce Flame

On the roof!
Им теперь литье продукты пламени

Ranged Touch Attack: (1d20+3)[7] Damage (1d6+1)[4]

[Kyeudo]

(Sorry about that. Fixed. I assume that was Produce Flame?)

Wolfe misjudges where the creature is and his fire spell misses the creature.

The thing lashes out at the Liutenent with a barbed claw.
Attack: (1d20+5)[17]
Damage: (1d4+1)[2]

[Leon]

Yeah, Produce Flame is mentioned in Russian

[Mantid]

Feste lets out a surprised yell and fumbles with his dagger for a moment before throwing it at the arachnid.

To Hit: (1d20+5)[8](-4 for throwing into melee?)
Damage: (1d3)[1]

[Kyeudo]

The surprised Feste's thrown weapon goes wildly off course, lodging in the wall on the far side of the room.

(First round of normal combat up. Have fun.)

[Leon]

Bugger, get it down off the roof

Ripping a thin sliver of wood from the pack on his back, Wolfe throws it at the thing on the roof

Draw Javelin (move action), Throw Attack +3-4 = -1 (standard action)

Ranged Attack (1d20-1)[15] Damage (1d6+2)[8]

[Kyeudo]

Wolfe's javalin bounces off the thing's tough carapace with a grating noise as the creature continues to attack the Liutentent.

Claw:(1d20+5)[21]
Damage: (1d4+1)[4]
Claw:(1d20+5)[9]
Damage: (1d4+1)[5]
Bite:(1d20)[4]
Damage: (1d6+1)[6]

[The_Shaman]

Felstahan

While Fel has been expecting trouble, the beast startles him. With an audible gasp, he reaches for an arrow and fires at the spider

Attack: (1d20+2)[8] (subtract 4 if the situation covers firing into melee, I don't have precise shot) edit: turns out it wasn't needed
Damage: (1d6)[5]

((Anyway, the creature is considered Medium, right?))

[Kyeudo]

(Creature is medium)

[DiscipleofBob]

"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS THAT THING? AH THOUGHT WE WERE FIGHTIN' REBELS, NOT GIANT SPIDER FREAKS!" Orgeth yells at the top of his lungs as he moves to flank the spider with the lieutenant, stabbing wildly with the creature.

Sorry about not posting sooner, was at a camp from monday to friday

Drawing his bow, Yry moves slightly further from the spider and fires an arrow at it.

[/spoiler]
Mechanics:
move to C10, away from the creature, drawing bow, and fire.
(1d20+2)[7] for attack, (1d6)[1] damage
[/spoiler]

[Kyeudo]

Yry's arrow lodges in the cieling a good foot from the spider.

Lieutenent Carter, finaly able to react, is bleeding heavily as he strikes at the creature.
Attack:(1d20+4)[23]
Damage:(1d8+3)[6]

[Kyeudo]

Confirming Crit: (1d20+4)[23]
Extra Damge: (1d8+3)[9]

(EDIT: Wth? He isn't supposed to be this good! The NPC just showed you all up, dispite my best efforts!)

[The_Shaman]

((Well, if he's leading a pack of desperate convict-soldiers and has to keep them in line, he's supposed to be good, isn't he?))

[Kyeudo]

(Not realy. He's a lieutentent more because he joined up freely and has some combat experience, not because he's realy talented at combat or leadership.)

[The_Shaman]

((Well, we don't know that and it seems whatever gods the setting has like him today. It's nice to have a non-incompetent NPC for a change

Anyway, which round are we doing right now? I'm pretty sure Fel's turn won't come immediately, but it's easy to lose track of whose turn it is with all the chaotic posting.))

[Kyeudo]

(All we are waiting on is Feste, then round 2 can go.)

[Mantid]

(All we are waiting on is Feste, then round 2 can go.)

((Oh? We are? I must have missed what happened to Feltashan...))

Feste pulls another dagger out of its sheath and flings it at the spider with a snap of his wrist.

To hit - (1d20+1)[3]
Damage - (1d3)[3]

[Kyeudo]

(He posted his action out of inititive order, which is fine. Well, that round's over, Wolfe is up.)

Feste's second dagger fares no better than the first, while Lieutent Carter's sword finds a chink in the creature's bony plating. The creature's blood is a disturbing shade of teal or cyan.

Taking a guess with this, Moving up onto the table to engage the foe - so from B10 to C9

Stuff this ranged business, RArrh

Wolfe leaps foward and up onto the table to be able to reach the beast

Attack (+2) (1d20+2)[11] Damage (1d6+2)[7]

[Kyeudo]

The creature scuttles out of the way of Wolfe's attack, then continues its now enraged assault upon the liutenent.

Claw:(1d20+5)[25]
Damage:(1d4+1)[2]
Claw:(1d20+5)[14]
Damage:(1d4+1)[3]
Bite:(1d20)[12]
Damage:(1d6+1)[2]

(How do you guys manage to consistantly roll nothing higher than a 9? )

[Kyeudo]

Confirm Crit:(1d20+5)[25]
Damage:(1d4+1)[4]

(I think I figured out why. I must be sucking up all the good luck.)

i beg to differ, my 15 didnt hit - that would have been a 19 if not for the Shoot into combat thing

By the numbers that Lt is one tough number - better him than us & ive gone and put my self near it.....oops

[Kyeudo]

I forgot about your 15. That one almost hit. The Lt. is just a lucky warrior 2 (the bug has mostly missed his AC).

[The_Shaman]

Spoiler

Ok, are we going for the next round? I'd wait for other people, ideally. My attack options are sub-par in such cramped fights anyway.

[Kyeudo]

(We are currently waiting on Yry, if I don't miss my guess, although posting out of inititive order is fine.)

[Armads]

<Sorry about the wait, I've been a little busy>

Yry shoots yet another arrow at the spider.

Spoiler

Show

Attack: (1d20+2)[14]
Damage: (1d6)[4]

[Kyeudo]

Yry's arrow clatters off of the creature's hard carapace.

The Lieutenent staggers, but continues to fight on dispite his wounds.
Attack:(1d20+4)[22]
Damage:(1d8+2)[5]

(For those of you melee fans, the creature is NOT out of reach. Its just on the cieling and hard to flank. You guys are having a terrible time hitting AC 16.)

[DiscipleofBob]

Orgeth keeps frantically stabbing, trying to make his way past the legs and claws to something more meatier and vulnerable.

(1d20+2)[3](+2 for flank)
