High Ref Maurkov

LoS. I'm assuming that the doors are 10' tall and that the characters are 5' cubes (i.e., can't see past the altar).

@Morbius

Spoiler

No LoS. You can see Snarl's door open during his turn.

@Snarl

Spoiler

Morbius's door is open. I think you spent a move action opening your own door, but please make such things explicit.

Snarl Round 2

Actually, we're both taller than 5'. Does that change LoS?

LOS!

@Refs:

Spoiler

Due to the height of the Altar (5') it blocks LOS for Medium and smaller creatures looking across it.

The walls and pillars block LOS as normal. As the trees are large enough to occupy 5' squares, they provide cover and concealment as normal, and thus block LOS.

@Morbius:

Spoiler

No LOS

@Snarl:

Spoiler

No LOS. The shout of Marco came from your north-northeast, at a distance putting it somewhere north of the altar.

Continue.

Round 6 (?)

"It's wrasslin' time!"

I'm going to be away for the next two days, so let's see if I can't condense this down into one post:

1) Take your damn AoO. My AC vs you is currently 18 (no buckler, plus dodge).
2) Touch attack to grab:
(1d20+4)[14]
3) Grapple check to hold (please roll one yourself)
(1d20+4)[17]
4) Assuming things have done alright for me so far, I'll move into your square as a free action.
5) Assuming the above succeeded, I'll draw a dagger with an opposed grapple check:
(1d20+4)[6]

And I end the turn.

[Morbius]

(sigh forgot to use animal devotion :P)

All right Aoo vs your touch AC

touch AoO - (1d20+4)[8]

if it hits you take
damage - (1d8+3)[10]



a 14 hits me so

opposed grapple - (1d20+3)[21]

Also are you sure you can draw a weapon now? I though you could only do damage when you start a grapple

[Morbius]

There goes my guidance.... Well at least I believe my spell is not lost as you could not start the grapple

Morbius 1st to act - round 7


Morbius changes law devotion to attack.
Swift action to activate animal devotion: ape str.
Then he attempts to poke you (a very painfull poke indeed)

touch attack - (1d20+7)[22](3str+1ape str+3law)
damage - (1d8+3)[5](+2 bonus from the altar)

Done.
