Emjajoas Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Em scowls, gritting his teeth, eyes darting between fallen party members. He chugs back a potion, intent on keeping himself standing.
Palathadric Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I stagger to my feet feeling the warmth of the Phoenix Essence. I nod to Hybros as I uncork my Phoenix Incense. "Well, demon, I have to say that you're a better sort than the taller demons hanging around the hall. Perhaps the Spirit of the Highest overshadowed you." I hate wasting expensive consumables like this.
joeshmoe554 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Jeaux felt his life forced drained once more. This time to such an extent he could no longer remain conscious. As the darkness enveloped him, Jeaux felt a sharp tug pull him out of the inky black. He awoke with a start to find two other members of the party recovering from the violent attack. The automaton picked up his handcannon from where it had fallen and Fired a round at the remaining gnome once more from the back row.

Party leader, please list a battle order.
JimBee Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 I stagger to my feet feeling the warmth of the Phoenix Essence. I nod to Hybros as I uncork my Phoenix Incense. "Well, demon, I have to say that you're a better sort than the taller demons hanging around the hall. Perhaps the Spirit of the Highest overshadowed you." "Perhaps, hehe. Or perhaps the archdemons have told me to take mercy on you, heheheh." Hybros grins, then winces. His wounds from the previous round were making themselves apparent. "Ehehm, I could use some healing, though..." He leaps back into combat by attacking Gnome C from the front row with his Sword, twice (or, if Pretzel chooses to heal and it fails, drinks a Grand Potion then attacks).
Palathadric Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 I heal Hybros from the Front Row. "Let me take the Shade's Hit and I'll hit him back a good one," I shout. "Perhaps, hehe. Or perhaps the archdemons have told me to take mercy on you, heheheh." "Bah! Humbug!" "Soryx, watch out! We don't want the Baron dead. Use caution with those hits of yours."
JimBee Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 "Soryx, watch out! We don't want the Baron dead. Use caution with those hits of yours." "Hm, you are right, Monk. I certainly do not want the Baron dead, even if he is in this state. Should we rethink our strategy...?" OOC: There's a 1/9 chance that Soryx will kill the Baron next round. We could wear him down with our attacks at the risk of him knocking us all out again with that special, or take the risk with the next roll. There is a much higher chance he'll knock us out at least once before we get his health low enough. Edit: Wait, I can give him my Axes this round to attack the Baron with, eliminating the chance to kill him completely when he attacks next. That means Em should attack Baron this round. Sorry for all the OOC. Summary: Monk Heals Hybros Hybros drinks Grand Potion/Attacks Gnome Hybros hands axes off Soryx receives Hybros thinks for a moment, then digs in his pack for the Dastan Dual Axes, handing them to Soryx in place of his second turn. "You should know how to use these better than I. They are a bit dull, and less lethal than that sword of yours. Be careful with the Baron, we do not want him dead." "I thought these might be useful, heheh..."
joeshmoe554 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) OOC: Actually, the baron still needs to use Gnome of the People before his special will deal more damage. We could take advantage of the current opportunity to strike him since he can't deal damage thanks to blinded, While letting Em and Pretzel take the free hits. Jeaux aims a shot at the baron from the back row Edited April 24, 2014 by joeshmoe554
JimBee Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 OOC: Right, but it still might be safer to just let Soryx target him to lessen the chance of "using up" his other special. On another note, it might also be wise for Em to hand off his Frost Helmet to Soryx this round: he can receive both the helmet and the axes in one turn if I'm not mistaken, and can spend next turn equipping the helmet to ensure that he doesn't get OHKO'd from the front row when attacking the Shade. Hybros groans and sheathes his Sword, following Jeaux. After handing off the axes, he switches targets to the Baron, attacking with his Twin Kunai from the front row (twice). He puts the Grand Potion away, not needing healing this round.
Emjajoas Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 OOC: What would you like me to do, then? Hand off the Frost Helm or Attack the Baron? Em rummages in his bag for his Frost Helm; he prepares to toss it to Soryx, but he also readies his aquabow to fire at the Baron from the back row. He awaits further instruction (Use whatever is agreed upon).
joeshmoe554 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 OOC: I seem to recall multiple items can be traded in one turn as well, so it makes sense to take advantage of that. Battle Order >Em passes Frost Helm to Soryx Monk Pretzel Heals Hybros >Jeaux vs Baron >Hybros passes Dastan Dual Axes to Soryx Hybros vs Baron (+ Baron) Soryx receives both items
CMP Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 OOC: I seem to recall multiple items can be traded in one turn as well, so it makes sense to take advantage of that. I don't believe so.
joeshmoe554 Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 OOC: Given the lack of a response in the rules thread, I'll just switch the action this round. Battle Order >Em vs Baron Monk Pretzel Heals Hybros >Jeaux vs Baron >Hybros passes Dastan Dual Axes to Soryx Hybros vs Baron (+ Baron) Soryx receives both items
Palathadric Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 "Don't all go railing on the Baron now. He may have knocked a couple of us down, but it wasn't intentional...I think."
joeshmoe554 Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 "As long as he is possessed by this energy, he is not the man who hired us. I will do what I can to avoid killing him since doing so would be killing our employer as well, but if we are to release him from whatever hold the darkness has, we must not hold back in this battle."
Palathadric Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 I gaze suspiciously at the robot and grunt. "I am a seasoned tactician and know when someone shoots to kill. I'll be monitoring your movements and don't think I'd hesitate to decapitate you." How again is it that we have a robot for a party leader? Even a demon would be better than this.

joeshmoe554 Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 OOC: Monk Pretzel was in the front row, so he should have taken and dealt 28 damage. "You would attack a fellow party member without bothering to think twice on the matter? That sort of rash decision making is likely to fail the mission and endanger everyone who is working alongside you. Soryx, think you can take care of the baron without killing him?" Jeaux loaded another round into the handcannon, staring down the baron through the weapons sight from the back row OOC: If my math is correct, the max damage Soryx can do to the Baron is 258, leaving him with 77 HP. Em and/or Jeaux should then be able to whittle him down to below 50 barring 2 more special damage rolls.
Emjajoas Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Em shoots a razor-sharp glare at the bickering party members, though decides to keep quiet. He fires at the Baron from the back row.
CMP Posted April 25, 2014 Author Posted April 25, 2014 "Soryx, think you can take care of the baron without killing him?" "I will try. I only hope he can properly exorcised if he survives.There is no telling with such an anomaly possessing him."
Palathadric Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 I equip the Magic Viper Skin in replace of the Strategist Shako and move to the Back Row. I should have dealt +5 Damage due to the Shako. "You would attack a fellow party member without bothering to think twice on the matter? That sort of rash decision making is likely to fail the mission and endanger everyone who is working alongside you. Soryx, think you can take care of the baron without killing him?" "Ha! Robot, don't talk to me about failing missions. I've led many a party on many an occasion and I've never failed to fulfil a mission once. Don't think that because you're the party leader you can boss others around. I don't take this sort of talk from some mage who has managed to power to life a machine so he doesn't need to go out and do anything for himself." "I will try. I only hope he can properly exorcised if he survives.There is no telling with such an anomaly possessing him." "Hmm, I hadn't thought of that before.

You would need multiple test subjects who have already been possessed to learn how to exorcise the possessor. It seems only logical the best way to accomplish that would be to first learn how to possess those subjects."
JimBee Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Hybros tries to focus on the battle and drown out the chatter between Jeaux and Pretzel. He downs a Grand Potion and attacks Gnome C from the front row with his Sword.
