UsernameMDM Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Hoke feels the surge of battle flow through him as he rips Vintul from its sheath and pulls out his diamond from its place. Diamond, Chaos Beast A, Back Row. Quote
Flipz Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) "Sir Cronk, for this Round only, I need you to put me last in the Battle Order. If I can manage to pull off a Mojo that is, IF my abilities still work as a mamber of the Court, then I'll have Stunned most of our enemies AND left the rest Stunned for next Round; if we manage to keep doing that, attacking the un-Stunned enemies every Round, we can alternate attacks until everything is dead. Also, Sir Cronk, please take an archer, since Dyric and I have the lowest Defense we should take on the clerics. Scratch that, Dyric should take a Cleric, but the other should remain untargetted so you can absorb its Free Hit." "This Round, let's focus on the Pongcanae, they'll deal more damage with their Free Hits than the chimaera guards. I don't think I need to remind everyone to strike from the Back Row, even if you deal melee damage; that will be a rule for the ENTIRE fight, even if it looks like we're winning. A Skeleton Decoy would be a waste of effort, it'd only take two Free Hits before breaking and we'd have to invoke one extra Free Hit for Dyric to activate it--and our best shot is for him to successfully Assassinate some of these things anyway." Arthur physically attacks Pongcanis Archer D from the Back Row with the Staff of the Cultist Battlemage.

CorneliusMurdock Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Arthur, perhaps using scroll to put a guard to sleep would help as well. Cronk will bash Archer B from back row. Order: Cronk Skrall Haldor Arthur Dyric May Ennoc guide our weapons so weapons strike true. Edited January 21, 2013 by CorneliusMurdock Quote
Scorpiox Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 "A very dire situation we find ourselves in indeed, we had better get to work. With me, comrades!" Haldor leads a cautious advance toward the foes amassing in front of him, and takes a long swing with his axe at Pongcanis Archer C once he draws near. Back row. Quote
The Legonater Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 More of these wretched mechanics! They're disgraceful things, I tell you. I attack Cleric A from the back row with the Cat 'O' Nine Tails. Quote
Pandora Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 "Hullo Mallelio, you have quite the talent for getting yourself into scrapes. Good to see you old friend, we'll get working on getting you out of here safely. Glad to see you could bash them about a bit before we got here, but it seems they've been ganging up un you." Nyx winks at Mallelio and surveys the room. Bloody mechanicals, and bloody chaos beasts, and blood bombsters, but bombsters could mean... She refocuses, and starts to formulate what she hopes is some sort of plan. "Mallelio, please stand with us back here. Those damn mechanical thingies are going to hit us a few times this first time round, and you're in no shape to fight right now, so please take the time to heal yourself. Vipera, sweet dragon, I know you have a close connection with gentleman Hoke here, but may I impose upon you and ask you to cast me lucky? I will try my best to keep you out of harm's way. Gray Wizard, we've not had much time to chat, but would you be so kind as to smite Chaos Beast B with your staff? Alexis, would you mind attacking one of the mechanicals with your second hit, as I think Felton would be most suited to attacking Bombster B. The rest of us will also start work on these mechanical beasties, and I'm hoping I might be able to take one out in one blow. Thothy, is it ok with you to take on one of these mechanical monstrosities too? Does anyone disagree? Oh, and in case this all goes horribly wrong, Hoke, I'd very much like you to take charge if I fall." Nyx grips her tome tightly in her right hand, and her Topaz in her left, planting herself firmly in the back row. She focuses her destructive will against Advanced Chimera Guard C with all her might, secretly hoping her spider might reappear. Battle Order: Hoke vs Chaos Beast A Thothwick vs Advanced Chimera Guard A? Alexis vs Bombster A Gray Wizard vs Chaos Beast B Alexis vs Advanced Chimera Guard B? Felton vs Bombster B Nyx vs Advanced Chimera Guard C (Felton's unblockable free hit vs Advanced Chimera Guard D) Vipera casts lucky on Nyx Mallelio heals himself Everybody Back Row. (For my reference) Quote
Professor Flitwick Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Whilst attacking Advanced Chimera Guard A from the back row with his Banana Sabre, Thothwick's mind was racing with excitement. "Can't quite fathom it! I've been this close to a Dragon before, but to see one in combat? At such a close proximity? What wonderful luck Orang Pendek has bestowed upon me!" Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 "Nope not a problem Cinna. I'm happy to help where ever I can!" Alexis jerks her second shot off towards Chimera Guard B. Quote
Zepher Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) OoC: Skrall, I never removed your Heavy Armor. I apologize, but since it is too late, I think I will just leave it as is. It's too bad, it was good role play to give it to Nyx... if you'd like to switch it so that she has it on and you do not, I will absolutely allow that, but the two of you should tell me this round.

He crumples to the ground. The celebration is short lived as Alexis is overrun with Chimera Guards. She stumbles backwards, barely alive. Felton lands a blow before being stabbed through the stomach by multiple knives from the Chimera Guards. His finishing blow comes from the Bombster. Nyx obliterates one of the little monsters and wipes her brow. The Gray Wizard and Mallelio stands next to her. "Felton... if it comes to it, Nyx, it is my turn to save your life.

Flipz Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 OOC: Hoke took Arthur's Ether Core, I believe. Which means Vintul is now more powerful than a Plaything would be in Hoke's hands! Also, did you roll for Cloak of Deception redirection on Arthur's Free Hits? If they would have saved him, then he's still in the battle. Quote
Zepher Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 OoC: Fixed Hoke! Also, just rolled for the Deception. It didn't save you, but thanks for the reminder! Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) OoC: Skrall still favors humanoids so his attack would still have had the x3 multiplier which I believe means he would have killed Pogcanis Archer A and thus Dyric would not have had the chance to reap gold from him or assassinate him. Also, I'm fine with keeping the heavy armor, I deleted that part because I realized that the Robe of the Arch Magi was also torso wear so their wasn't that big of an advantage giving it to Pandora. Smoke covered the room as Skrall waved his hat to try and clear the air in order to discern the state of the battle. Regulus was gone, Dyric was still standing and had managed to slay a few of their enemies, and the rest of the Party looked in alright condition. There were still a lot of enemies, but at least now the Party was ready for them. Skrall lifted his crossbow again before firing at the Pogcanis Archer C from the back row. "Haldor, we need to keep Dyric on his feet, I'd suggest ya try and patch him up by one way or another. Cronk we can survive a few more bouts, but we need to make sure that Dyric stays up. I'd suggest ya put Haldor first, then yerself, then me, then Dyric last. If we keep our attack on the Pog archers and Dyric keeps at one of the Cleric, I think we'll pull through." In the style of Flipz: >Haldor vs. Dyric [either heal or use a potion/grand potion] (-11 from free hits) >Cronk vs. Pog Archer B (-17 from free hits) >Skrall vs. Pog Archer C (-12 from free hits) >Dyric vs. Cleric A (-10 from free hits) Edited January 22, 2013 by Waterbrick Down Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Hooray Ether Core!!! BUT! I still want a Zoot's plaything. Counterstrike Gloves on Hoke. Does that mean I hit that Chimera Guard twice? Quote
CMP Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Felton!! Damn it. Roleplaying has forsaken me. Atramor pushed his way through the horde of Pongcanis violently. The Explosive Staff served well to force the hairy beings out of his path, and the eerie pink blobs of venom helped to keep them from attacking. Panic became slightly evident as he stumbled from between the Chaos Beasts and fell into line beside Triad. The weapon wavered in his hands as he held it ready. He may have been Lucky, but he couldn't be feeling less Inspired or Encouraged. The advancing mass of opponents seemed to grow even larger as they approached. There was something wrong. There had to be. He'd faced death mere hours ago in the cemetery, why did everything feel so hopeless now? Who was this fool standing in the path of oblivion? Instinct overcame whatever had brought him to the brink of suicide. When Triad next looked, he had fled. The lack of talons grasping his shoulder never occurred to him as he bolted down the staircase. Battle Order Atramor Triad Death Quote
CorneliusMurdock Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Where is Arthur going?! Battle is this way! Blasted sorcerer... Good thinking, friend Skrall. Haldor use Grand Potion on Dyric. That way party is sure of success. Cronk will bash Archer B from back row. Order: Haldor Cronk Skrall Dyric Quote
Zepher Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Triad is a whirl, her single blade spinning out into her shuriken which she used as a shield, and then twisting it back to a blade, cutting and moving through the Pongcanis. When Atramor reaches the stairs he sees another Pongcanis coming up them, somehow bigger than the others, his fur more ratty, burns here and there. Before Atramor can act, he feels a hand on his shoulder. He spins around and there, splattered with purple blood and red blood, stands Triad, tall, strong, solemn. "We advise you go out the window," says Triad. Atramor doesn't have a chance to respond. Triad, with the strength of an Acerpusculum, with the strength of a whole ancient race, hauls him to the window. "We know you are good, Atramor. As long as good stays strong and fights-" she fends off a Pongcanis. "-evil, evil will never win. As long as one person defends one other person-" she cuts off a Pongcanis' hand, "we will die happy. We die proud of our life, Atramor. That is the only goal we have. To die proud of ourself for ourself." She tosses him out the thin slit of a window. He finds himself balanced on a gargoyle, also used as a spout for the gutter. Below him is another, and below that a ledge... the climb down is long, but he can (and must) climb fast. He spins back to look through the window. The huge Pongcanis bursts into the room as Triad sinks her blade into the stomach of one of his fellows. The Pongcanis falls she struck falls and takes the blade with it. The new Pongcanis laughs a deep guttural laugh at her. "You are one of the heroes? I've met you heroes before. You are weak. Pathetic. You have no honor." "No, Pongcanis. You have no honor. Give us our blade, and we will gut you." The Pongcanis slams her down into the wall. "I fight those who challenge me. You will die, and then to be sure you're dead, my men will eat you, and we'll snap that blade of your's, and we'll shit out your remains. We will have the honor of killing an Acerpusculum. But if you want to fight..." The Pongcanis raises his huge blade before kicking over her thin one. It skitters next to her... too far to reach. Triad sits stock still. "You will never have honor. We look down on you. We do not pity you. You do not deserve that. You will die a pathetic being, and you will know that-" The Pongcanis brings his blade down and splits Triad clean in half. Sticky purple liquid bursts forth and covers his blade and face. He licks it and growls with pleasure. Atramor begins his descent quickly. Edited January 23, 2013 by Zepher Quote
Scorpiox Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 "We are on the offensive, let us not slow up now! Wait, but where is the Sorceror? He goes now, when we are fighting for our lives and the lives of this city. I do hope that he will come back. Dyric, I feel that you have need of some replenishing? Here, take this." Haldor tosses a grand potion over to Dyric, which he then uncorks and drinks in one. But as the potion left his hand, the nord felt a pang of sadness strike his heart, as though a great friend had passed away... Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Alexis smiles as the Bombster falls. Then staggers as she's hit by the Chimera guards. She reaches into her bag and draws out the health core. Alexis shoves it into her mouth then shoots an arrow towards Beast A. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Hoke energies zap into Vintul instead of the Chaos Beast. Somehow he can feel the blade becoming stronger and is eager to try it out. Diamond, Chaos Beast, Back Row. Did Hoke counterstike the Chimera Guard twice from it's hastened free hits?

Zepher Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) OoC: Counterstrike fixed, Hoke! Also, edited in the final picture of Triad... because I forgot I had one, but I do! And you're right, you should have killed him, but I'll let Dyric keep the gold because I'm just that nice! Guffington Manor Outer Wall Battle Round Two >Haldor uses Grand Potion on Dyric (+25 health) >Cronk v. Pog Archer B - Hit (39/2/2=9) >Skrall v. Pog Archer C - Special Damage (24 Damage First Three - Haldor: 24-7=17, Cronk: 24-17=7, Skrall: 24-8=16) >Dyric v. Cleric A - Special Damage Hit - (26/10=3 to the first six, 2 to the last 4) (Rolls: 2326363221) (Chimera Guard F Assassinated) Free Hits Cleric B + Chimera Guard D v.

Dyric - (20/2=10) Heroes weakly beat back the enemies, and Dyric tears a Chimera Guard apart, but the slew of arrows puts them down. If they wish to survive, they'll need to do some quick thinking.

The Legonater Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) If we can all survive one more round for the scarf to kick in, we should done fine. Skrall, Cronk, and ideas? Edited January 23, 2013 by The Legonater Quote
Pandora Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 "Nope not a problem Cinna. I'm happy to help where ever I can!" "Thanks Alexis, but my name's Nyx. " Nyx is visibly impressed at how quickly Alexis takes to her new Class as she displays a viciousness that Nyx herself enjoys. Her smile drains completely though, as Felton falls to the Bombster's tricks at the end of the round. Ignoring the lump in her throat she surveys the field once more, knowing now is not the right time to be sentimental. "Mallelio, we have no intention of running - we intend to fight, although I will bear your kind offer in mind. You are brave, I know this, so fight with us. Felton, I hope to hell you can hear us, we'll try to get you back on your feet. Vipera, could you attempt to raise him? Alexis, I like your style, please keep doing what you're doing with that assassination stuff. Gentleman Hoke, if you could stop playing with your weapon for a few moments, we could really use your help in cutting these guys back down to size. Mallelio, Gray Wizard, hopefully you should be protected to some degree from those nasty mechanical specials, so if you could just attack the weakest mechanicals that'd be great. And feel free to pull off a healing doo-hickey in the process." Once more Nyx feels the responsibility on her shoulders. So much at stake here, but she was designed for battle now, after all. She looks at Bombster B, and tries to keep thoughts of men and bombs out of her mind. The emotion swells though, so she channels it through her Amethyst and Book at this pretender. Battle Order: >Vipera raises Felton (pleeeeeaaaaaase) >Hoke vs Chaos Beast B >Thothwick - yet to choose action >Alexis eats Health Core >Nyx casts Darkness on Bombster B >Felton (if resurrected) vs Chimera Guard A >Mallelio casts Lightning on Advanced Chimera Guard D >Alexis vs Chaos Beast A >Gray Wizard attacks Advanced Chimera Guard E Everyone back row again.

CorneliusMurdock Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Here is Cronk's idea. Cronk will use Phoenix Essence on Haldor from back row. Once revived, Haldor should use Health Core on Skrall. Skrall should continue to attack archer and hope for lucky roll. Dyric should conitnue against Cleric and think assassin-y thoughts, hoping to dispose of at least one archer. Friends should survive round that way if all goes well. Though Skrall should check Cronk's math on that. Stay in back row, friends. Order: Cronk- Free hits- CL B+ CC=18-17=1 damage Haldor- AC+CD=34-7=27 Skrall- AD+CA=34-8=26 Dyric- CE=10 Quote
Professor Flitwick Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Seeing Feltons collapse withdrew Thothwick from his thoughs, and with renewed vigor he attacks Advanced Chimera Guard A from the back row with his Banana Sabre >Thothwick - yet to choose action Ooc: Sorry everybody! I saw my post from the last round, and convinced myself they were this rounds actions. Quote
The Legonater Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I repeat my attack, thinking assassin-y thoughts. Quote
