Heroica RPG - Quest#155: The Grunch Who Stole Grogmas

[Palathadric]

I remedy Thalion and then Dual-Strike Krampus first and the Tin Soldiers second from the Front Row.

Vind, should remedy Pretzel and Matthias as they are lucky and he is not.

[-obelix-]

Thalion repeats his attack.

"Mux, dont worry, we will bring Grunch back, just as soon as we finish with these enemies. Will you help me attack and bring them down quickly?"

Battle Order:

Vindsval

Vindsval

Mux bares his teeth and growls at Krampus.

The way can both help and harm.  Lay not your hands upon those you would call allied.

Vindsval Uses a Remedy on Monk from the Back Row.

Vindsval Uses a Remedy on Matthias from the Back Row.

Matthias attacks Krampus again, then heals Vindsuval (if necessary).

> Matthias: Extraordinaire v. Krampus
> Matthias: Heal (XX Replica) v Vindsval if not full health; otherwise, Extraordinaire v. Krampus

Also I believe that Reindeer A and the Mob should be *Fragile*?

Calling out to Mux, the tiny druid keeps his voice as calm and even as he can. "Master Mux, do not be troubled, I will soon have Master Grunch up and about again."

QM Note: I've been ruling that the fragile effect only affects the target as the extra damage rider is an effect itself.

Vindsval manages to remedy the Party as Monk Pretzel flexes his scourge downing both Krampus and the Toy Soldier Mob. Thalion blasts the reindeer along with Matthias as Mux takes a snap at the quadruped. Matthias fires off another shot severely wounding the reindeer and nearly knocking out another dwarf.

"Excellent job master Monk! If you keep that up we will be done in no time."

Thalion casts a darkness spell at Dwarf A (and B) from back row. Then repeats that attack.

"Mux, just a liitle more and we will be done with these miscrients; can you help me with the dwarfs and attack that one (C)? Masters Vindsval and Matthias, could one of you help us and get Grunch back into the fray?" If he is back up, Thalion addresses Grunch, "You should rest and heal up in the back row for now. And if you at full health already, you can help Mux and me with the Dwarf C."

Matthias heals Thalion, then either attacks dwarf B or heals Mux.

By your Word Thallion, I will raise the cur. If only that we may reach the children he has put into danger the more quickly.

Vindsval Ignites a Phoenix Essence over Grux in the Back Row.

Now get on your feet and aid us, if we are quick the younglings may yet live.

Vindsaval Heals Mux from the back row with Ludeas.

Please move Vindusval after Matthias in the battle order; he can revive and heal only if Matthias fails to do so (Roots of Life, etc). Matthias is going to run out of ether at some point; Vindsval can perform his heals only as needed and attack otherwise.

[Waterbrick Down]

Monk Pretzel nearly brings down the reindeer and the dwarves in one fell swoop. Thalion manages to add to the chaos with a well timed bolt of dark power. Matthias at long lasts calls forth his healing roots to not onl raise Grunch but nearly heal the entire party to full health. Vindsval can't seem to pin down his target as Grunch and Mux both fail to have an impact.

[StickFig]

Matthias nods to Grunch as the latter gets up and winces as the orc takes another hit. "Welcome back. Try not to suffer too much too quickly!" The druid addresses Mux. "Told you I would get him back good as new." Watching his fellows, Matthias heals where needed and attacks where he can.

> Matthias: Heal (XX Replica) v. Grunch
> Matthias: Heal (XX Replica) v. first injured party member; if none, Extraordinaire v. Dwarf A

[Asphalt]

Vindsval marvels as the druid shows his power once again.

The strength of the land is indeed great and broad.  Well master Matthias.  With their Master gone, let us rid ourselves of his minions.

Vindsval attacks the Reindeer Twice from the front row with the Crystal Blade.

 

[-obelix-]

Thalion casts a darkness spell at Dwarf A (and C), from back row. Than repeats his attack. If only one enemy remains, Thalion will dual-cast the spell at it - darkness if its a dwarf and light if it is a reindeer.

"Grunch, you should stay out and rest unless you are fully healed, otherwise you can help me with dwarf C or the reindeer, but you should keep to the back. Mux, we should finish them off." He says, pointing to the dwarves.

I then Dual-Strike the Two Dwarfs with Heaven and Hell from the Front Row.

Unless somebody is already down, in which case I Dual-Strike the Other Two.

[Waterbrick Down]

Monk Pretzel swings his weapon around and manages to strike a vein of gold running through the cave and strikes it rich. Preoccupied by his new wealth, the monk fails to notice the dark dwarf archer sinking a piercing round into the Artisan's side. Thankfully Matthias restores both Pretzel and Grunch to full health. Thalion goes into another whirlwind of blades and blasting darkness damage as Vindsval once again calls for aid from his heavenly guardian. Mux manages to bite one of the remaining dwarves as Grunch brings the monster down with a single slash from his blade.

Party Leader, Please determine the battle order.

[Palathadric]

I attack the Reindeer twice from the Front Row with the Dual Staff while Dual-Striking the Dwarf.

I nod appreciatively to Matthias.

"A druid is one of the most useful members a party could ask for."

[StickFig]

Tipping his hat to Pretzel, the gnome prepares his final ether for healing... and prepares his cannon.

> Matthias: Heal vs first injured party member other than Mux; if none, Extraordinaire v. Dwarf A
> Matthias: Heal vs first injured party member other than Mux; if none, Extraordinaire v. Dwarf A

[Asphalt]

Indeed it would seem to be.  My father was one such as he, though never a warrior.

Vindsval REPEATS

[-obelix-]

Thalion casts a light spell at reindeer (twice) from back row. Then casts a darkness spell at dwarf A (twice) from back row.

"Grunch, Mux, you can focus you attack on either one of those two standing."

Same battle order.
