Adumbration - Deharius
Bayar - Arthas

All Combatants, please roll initiative.

[Adumbration]

Ah, so meet in this field of battle, Bayar. May your Licheny King be with you.

Rolling for initiative.

(1d20+3)[1](4)

Is there anything else I need to do at the moment?

[Adumbration]

Well, as it appears, Lich King had a few moments of time and decided to tamper with the forum roller. An excellent moment to roll that natural 1.

EDIT: You know, I completely forgot to buy flint and steel. Is it too late?

[Talic]

High Ref Talic

Decide any purchases you wish to make. Your opponent will do the same. You may take turns buying things until you're both happy (or broke). Then you start the attempts to kill your opponent and stuff.

[Adumbration]

Purchasing 2 tindertwigs. Nothing else for now, except it appears I can't find how long it takes for smoke to dissipate normally.

EDIT: How long does it take to scatter caltrops, anyway?

EDIT 2: Nevermind the caltrops. Found that information myself.

[Bayar]

Oh, hi. my init? Kthx

(1d20-7)[-5]

For some reason I wont be the first. Think that my psyhic powers tell me that.

Edit: Wont buy anything, go ahead and start buffing yourself.

[Adumbration]

Deharius - Round 1

Starting in B 13, the scythe sheathed in my back with a tindertwig and a smokestick in hand.

Move Action: B 13 to E 12.

Standard Action: Lighting the smokestick in hand, dropping it to the intersection of the four squares in E 12 - E 13 - F 12 - F 13. Smoke starts billowing forth, and it should cover the squares I just described.

For refs:

Spoiler

Show

Taking a 5-foot-step to D 12. Put it into spoilers becouse I think there's no LOS at the moment.

Also, I have no idea how long the smoke lasts, couldn't find the rules for it in d20 SRD, although I think they should be in there somewhere.

High Ref Talic

I need to verify a couple things, with LOS:

@Arthas:

Spoiler

Show

You have listed in activation Divine Vigor, and in Stat block Divine Favor. Which is it?

@Deharius:

Spoiler

Show

In round 1, you moved, and then took a 5 foot step. This isn't allowed, for future reference. You can only take a 5 foot step in rounds that you perform no other movement. Easiest Fix is to have the 5 foot step occur in round 2.

Rewind action to End of round 2. LOS established, barely, between:
Arthas in N11
and
Deharius in D12.

Deharius's Turn, Play continues from this point.

Also, Arthas didn't list spells at round 1, and selected them at the start of round 2. This didn't create any match impact, but technically, as it's a "rewind" type action, is only allowable if the opponent approves.

[Adumbration]

Deharius - Round 3

Deharius moves out of sight.

Move action:

A five-foot-step to D 13.

Done, but would like LOS yet again.

[Talic]

Will provide LOS in a few (when work slows down), 1 note first:

@Bayar:

Spoiler

Show

If I'm not mistaken, Death Devotion targets a weapon. I assume morningstar?

[Bayar]

@refs:

Spoiler

Show

Do I have another weapon? No. So common sense assumes that yes, it engulfes my morningstar.

[Talic]

LOS!

@Deharius:

Spoiler

Show

No LOS

@Arthas:

Spoiler

Show

You can barely make out your opponent, through the smoke, in D13.

Oh, and I'm wary when applying common sense to D&D RAW. They don't always agree.

[Bayar]

Your turn.

Deharius - Round 4

Edit: I miss, your turn.

[Adumbration]

First of all, make a Fortitude save. From SRD:

Smoke Effects

A character who breathes heavy smoke must make a Fortitude save each round (DC 15, +1 per previous check) or spend that round choking and coughing. A character who chokes for 2 consecutive rounds takes 1d6 points of nonlethal damage.

Smoke obscures vision, giving concealment (20% miss chance) to characters within it.

Now, it's my turn.

Deharius - round 5

Roll against concealment - if it hits between 1-20, it doesn't hit.

(1d100)[77](77)

If that hits, I attempt to trip you.

Melee touch attack against your touch AC of 8. I'm using Guidance to help on that.

(1d20+4)[20](24)

A strength check if that succeeds:

(1d20+7)[7](14)

This is the check you need to oppose if I succeed on everything else. Use your strength or dexterity, whichever is higher.

And now, if that hits, I get a free attack against you.

(1d20+3)[9](12)

If that, again, succeeds, it's damage time. Don't forget to add that -4 to your AC!

(2d4+4)[4][2](10)

I think that's it. Let me know if I forgot anything.

[Adumbration]

If I've calculated right, if you fail that strength/dexterity check against my trip attempt, you're down for the count.

[Bayar]

Free action to say : What the **** ? Didnt expected that move

Strenght check: (1d20+3)[15] Come on dice! Help me out here !

Edit: YES !!! Never doubt the heart of the dice !

Now, for my payback. See next post.
