Talic - Thok
SamtheCleric - Unstoppable Force

All gladiators please roll initiative

[SamTheCleric]

I'd like to buy a potion of Hide from Animals, potion of Shield of Faith (+2), potion of Repair Light Damage and 5 Javelins... 155g total.

Initiative: [roll]1d20+[/roll]

(may make more purchases depending on what you buy :) )

[SamTheCleric]

I fail at the dice roller.

(1d20+1)[16]

[Talic]

Purchases: Potion, Hide from Animals. That's all, unless you buy something else wonky. I've got my idea, we'll see how it works.

Init: (1d20)[1]

Edit: No, THAT'S failing at the dice roller, lol.

[SamTheCleric]

I'll probably get to my first action later this evening or tomorrow morning... need to formulate a strategy against you... cause... frankly... i'm quite intimidated.

[Talic]

Yeah, I needed to think for a moment when I saw 24 AC, vs my buffed AC of 9-13.

Wow. I thought the move would surprise you, but I was expecting to surprise you on MY turn. Oh well.

[SamTheCleric]

Your elevation is 15 feet.. so you're within melee reach of the light orange squares, yes?

[Talic]

Relative to squares the color of O8 and O9, I am at an altitude allowing me to stand on the ground. Only reason I'm flying still is that I didn't have the move to get all the way up without squeezing, so my back half is hanging over, and I'm flying east.

[SamTheCleric]

Ok well, this is gonna end faster than I had hoped, your strength is what... 30 right now? 22 + 6 for fist of stone + 2 for enlarge... sigh.

I drop the potion in my hand (does a potion break if its dropped? I hope not!)

I take a move action to move 5 feet to P10 and draw my sword on the move. You may take your AoO as I leave your threatened square (please dont hit me!)

(1d20+4)[17]
Damage: (1d8+3)[8]

Please die.

[Talic]

Let's see... At the time I make an AoO, you're 10 feet out.

Provided that's true, I'm making a grapple attack. It provokes, so, provided you have a weapon with 10' reach, feel free to take it. Otherwise:

Melee touch attack: (1d20+9)[27] (+10 str, -1 size)
Grapple check: (1d20+14)[26] (+10 str, +4 size)

Damage if successful: (1d3+7)[8] nonlethal

(fist of stone applies for the slam attack (and damage) granted by fist of stone, as well as grapple checks, but does not say it applies for regular melee damage rolls. Grapple checks deal unarmed strike damage, which is 1d3 + 7 (+6 str, +2 from enlarge), nonlethal.

[SamTheCleric]

Opposed Grapple Check:

(1d20+7)[19] +4 for Strength, +3 for shield ward.

Fail. So I take your damage (reduced by DR) and it is now your turn.

Since I didn't get to move... is my sword out or not? I'm fine either way.

[Talic]

6 for the previous round, and...

Grapple check to deal damage: (1d20+14)[20]
Damage: (1d3+7)[10] Nonlethal

Done.

Edit: 8 more for this one, if successful

[SamTheCleric]

Ok 6 damage from the last attack...

Grapple check to resist your damage... (1d20+7)[23]

If Im holding my sword, free action to drop it. Attack you with my Slam attack

(1d20)[5] (+4 normal, -4 for attacking inside a grapple)
(1d4+7)[10]

Natural 1 always misses.

[SamTheCleric]

You're a tough one.

Grapple to resist damage... (1d20+7)[17]

If I don't die

(1d20)[12]
(1d4+3)[6]

And that's match. Owwie.

Good game :)

[Talic]

TY, I figured grapple was my only shot, your AC is too good otherwise.

[SamTheCleric]

It was a very effective strategy... if I could drink the potion, it brings my AC to 26... which is right where I like it.

I assume my potion doesn't shatter when I dropped it... so I'm going to carry it on down to the losers bracket.

[Talic]

Nope. Falls from less than 10 feet don't deal damage.
