So what I'm inclined to do is to go ahead and get organized and then start. Given my experience with these things thirty minutes or so will pass before things get too hairy." <OOC> Rogun says, "Hopefully she'll be there by then. If not, she can 'wake up and join' when she gets here." <OOC> Rogun says, "So first things first. Given that this is a fantasy forest there probably are small clearings (surrounded by trees). Streams. Maybe sink holes. Is there any particular location someone wants to say y'all setup camp (if you can roll well enough to find these exotic locales)?" <OOC> Rogun says, "Or just 'in the woods' is sufficent?" <OOC> Ferawyn says, "anywhere in the forest is fine by me. But I imagine if everyone wants a fire, but not to start a big fire, they'll want a clearing that won't set the grass on fire." <OOC> Rogun says, "I'd be willing to handwave fire difficulty. I figure between Ferawyn and Remethaer y'all can safely build a fire pit that won't enflame the campsite without some external hazard." <OOC> Remethaer says, "I imagine it'd depend on the night. If it's windy and cold something near a windbreak (the lee of a hill, a dense copse) would be nice. If it's a nice night then just some place with comfy ground. A freshwater source is always nice but it doesn't need to be right on top of the camp." <OOC> Kravar my ideal would be someplace on top of a hill but with some rocks or trees or other stuff so that there's some cover from things outside of the camp <OOC> Kravar says, "Fallen trees" <OOC> Kravar says, "Maybe something like this: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1584642" <OOC> Ferawyn says, "lets use an amalgamation of standing and fallen trees, perhaps freshwater nearby." <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. Those who want to predict the weather roll Survival." GAME: Ferawyn rolls survival: (14)+12: 26 GAME: Kravar rolls survival: (3)+6: 9 GAME: Remethaer rolls Survival: (20)+10: 30 Remethaer and Ferawyn predict that it's going to be partly cloudy with a light summer breeze. They anticipate no storms or severe weather. The moon is waxing gibbous. <OOC> Rogun says, "Now. Knowledge Geography." <OOC> Rogun says, "This is to attempt to find a hill similar to what Kravar presented. A known geographical feature of the land." GAME: Remethaer rolls Knowledge/Geography: (18)+7: 25 Based upon a desire of some cover Remethaer is able to discern a hill not quite as stark as the one Kravar presented in the picture. It's about three-quarters size and more rounded. The rocky soil causes the trees to be a bit more sparse than in the rest of the forest. The trees themselves vary in size but are typically about thirty to sixty feet tall with the lower branches stout enough to support one or two medium-sized individuals at a time. There is fallen tree midway up the hill in one section. The top of the hill is bald. Water is a short hike away and you are able to secure plenty for the evening prior to settling in. <OOC> Rogun says, "Camp at the top. Near the fallen tree or at the base?" <OOC> Kravar votes at the top <OOC> Remethaer says, "The top is fine." <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. Ferawyn, I believe Remethae has a dog. Do you have an animal companion?" <OOC> Ferawyn does not. <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. Kravar volunteered for first watch. Barring objections. Do who takes second? Does Remethaer's dog get its own watch slot or is it watching with him? Obviously Elessa will not have a slot unless she appears in the next few minutes." <OOC> Ferawyn wanted to sleep through the first watch since, I think, elves don't sleep very long. <OOC> Remethaer says, "Kravar can have first, I'll take the second with the dog, and Ferawyn can have the last?" <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay." <OOC> Ferawyn nods. GAME: Rogun rolls 1d3: (3): 3 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20-2: (9)+-2: 7 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (9)+6: 15 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (4)+6: 10 <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn, roll perception." GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (13)+12: 25 <OOC> Rogun says, "Posing." -=Fade In - A Hilltop Campsite=- The current quest has found our adventurers atop a bald hill-site in the middle of the dense woodland. Having spent an hour at dusk assuring their campsite was in order the vast wilderness knowledge purported by Remethaer and Ferawyn has provided enough food, water, and a fire which is unlikely to get out of control without some outside assistance. As dusk turns to night they share a meal together before setting a watch and turning in for the evening. Kravar volunteers for the first watch if only to spare the racket of donning and removing his armor multiple times. His shift passes without incident as the fire dies to a low state. Remethaer and his companion are awakened next. The veteran ranger is quite accustomed to having his sleep disturbed in such a manner. He tracks his time by the movement of the moon and occupies his time without fear for the darkness over the valley below. Ferawyn awakes next. Her sylvan form seemingly less dependant upon sleep than her companions she arises feeling fully rested and ready for the next day's adventure. However, communing with nature she is preternaturally aware of her surroundings.. ..the complex symphony of nature is interrupted by a discordant note. Nearby she detects the movement of not one, not two, but three separate entities. At least one of them is much larger than the others though she cannot quite yet see its skulking form in the low-light of the moon. <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll init. Ferawyn." GAME: You roll initiative for Interloper_T1: Roll: 15 + Bonus: 2 = Total: 17 GAME: You roll initiative for Interloper_W1: Roll: 2 + Bonus: 2 = Total: 4 GAME: You roll initiative for Interloper_W2: Roll: 2 + Bonus: 2 = Total: 4 GAME: Ferawyn rolls initiative: Roll: 18 + Bonus: 3 = Total: 21 ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Your action." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "I'm definitely hopping off of my tree and waking remethaer up." <OOC> Rogun says, "Pose it. He'll wake next round." Tilting her head with a start, Ferawyn easily slides down out of the tree she was sleeping on, and nudges Remethaer. "Reme. Wake up. We have company." She says first in sildanyari, then in a language reme will definitely not recognize before she finally speaks it in common..... <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll perception again." GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (20)+12: 32 Ferawyn only would note that the hillside forms continue their cautious approach. As she slides off her perch and moves to wake her companion they seem to pause for a beat. Her senses meld with nature as she wakes her companion. For a moment she can clearly detect the three forms despite the darkness and distance between she and they.. **PERMIT TO FERAWYN ONLY** The two smaller forms are quadrupeds and you determine them to be animals weighing approximately 90 pounds. The third form is large. Nearly ten feet tall. The two smaller forms break formation and begin to circle with one on either side of the camp. You can determine the larger one to be doing something. <OOC> Rogun says, "Remethaer roll initiative" You paged Ferawyn with 'Also. They are about sixty feet away.' GAME: Remethaer rolls initiative: Roll: 7 + Bonus: 5 = Total: 12 ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "Right. I'm waking Kravar next." <OOC> Rogun says, "Pose it." GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (15)+6: 21 Still keeping an eye on the trio approaching, Ferawyn sighs. "Have to be wolves." She says to herself as she strings her bow together, and gives a swift, but solid, kick to Kravar. "Wake up Kravar, we have company and we need your sword, now." GAME: Rogun rolls 1d8+1: (2)+1: 3 GAME: Rogun damaged Ferawyn for 3 points. 22 remaining. GAME: Remethaer rolls Perception: (10)+10: 20 GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (6)+12: 18 <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "are we still considered to be in the forest?" <OOC> Rogun says, "The overall terrain is forest, yes. The hilltop is bald." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "K. my AC is 18, not that it matters now...but." An arrow flies in from the darkness striking Ferawyn as she moves from Remethaer to Kravar. **Remethaer** Something is shooting a bow from out in the darkness. Its far enough away that its hard to detect. Emit to whom? **Ferawyn** You realize the large shape is firing a bow as you are struck with an arrow. The other two shapes continue to circle. <OOC> Rogun says, "Remethaer." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Stand as a move (and draw my rifle as part of that action) and then shake Elessa awake." <OOC> Rogun says, "Pose it." <OOC> Rogun says, "Kravar init." GAME: Kravar rolls initiative: Roll: 17 + Bonus: 2 = Total: 19 ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn is giving Kravar bull's strength. <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay." GAME: Ferawyn casts Bull's Strength. In the process of rolling to his feet, Remethaer ducks at the whistle of arrows. "Handy bloody wolves!" He counters with an awkward grind, scooping up the elaborate compound stick of metal and wood. He pushes at Elessa with his foot, "Hunter's step, quick miss." <OOC> Rogun says, "Kravar. You can stand and grab weapons this round if thats what you want to do." <OOC> Kravar nods...can we pretend my pose was for this round? :) <OOC> Rogun says, "Yes. :)" Kravar opens his eyes with a start, then struggles to his feet, taking up his sword first and then looking for his shield. "What is it?" He tries to blink away sleep. <OOC> Rogun says, "Perception from the three who have had turns." "ERGH!" Ferawyn yelps as the arrow hits her in the shoulder. However, she doesn't let it break her concentration. "Paulein, giver of fruits, embolden this warrior for the fight ahead." She says in druidic..... GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (3)+12: 15 GAME: Kravar rolls perception: (5)+5: 10 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (4)+6: 10 <OOC> Rogun says, "Perception when you get a chance, Reme." <OOC> Rogun says, "Also, you can roll your dogs as well." GAME: Remethaer rolls Perception: (18)+10: 28 GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d20+5: (2)+5: 7 <OOC> Remethaer says, "+8 if Scent applies." Another arrow flies in. This one a bit wide striking the ground with a *THUNK*. **Ferawyn** The large shape fires another arrows. You lose track of the other two in the hail of arrows though they were last at opposite ends of the encampment in the darkness. **Kravar** An arrow just flew in. It's dark out there. **Remethaer** Now that you've shaken off your sleep you can determine that whatever it is out there in the darkness appears to be quite large. The crude arrows look more like large short-bow ammunition. The hair on the back of your neck stands on end. You feel like you are being encircled. The dog is diligent and seemingly aware that the major threat is ahead. ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Elessa roll initiative when you return. We'll progress around you for the moment." <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "I can still see the one who fired the arrow?" <OOC> Rogun says, "Not clearly. IT's definately concealed by the darkness but yes you are aware of its rough size and position from your previous rolls." <OOC> Ferawyn is going to cast a summon nature's ally then..... <OOC> Ferawyn says, "2nd level. Unfortunately I didn't have a spell prepared since I goofed on my last readysp.....:/" <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. What are you summoning. Also it will take a full round and roughly where will it be appearing?" <OOC> Rogun says, "Kravar." <OOC> Kravar says, "Sorry...so did I see any enemies, or where that arrow came from?" <OOC> Rogun says, "You have the direction the arrow came from. Otherwise its just dark." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "It'll burn my last 2nd level spell. It'll be a small fire elemental, and I'll plop it right next to the guy firing arrows." <OOC> Rogun says, "He's about sixty feet out. You can get it about halfway between you and it." <OOC> Rogun says, "Due to the range of the spell." <OOC> Kravar hmm one last question is there any way to take cover from arrows on our hill? <OOC> Rogun says, "You can fall prone or get behind one another. The hilltop itself is bald." <OOC> Kravar will switch to hiw own bow and try and stand in front of Ferawyn <OOC> Kravar says, "Between her and the arrow guy" <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. You'd give her pretty good cover. Pose it." Shaking her head, Ferawyn grumbles a bit. "We have no cover. We're gonna need to distract him a bit." She then stands still and begins to chant........ <OOC> Rogun says, "Also, Kravar, is your AC setup correctly from your sleep state?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Name | Race | Class | E Lev| CHP | HP | AC | For | Ref | Wil | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |Elessa |HUMAN |Rog | 2 | 14 | 14 | 15 | 1 | 7 | 1 | |Remethaer |HUMAN |Rgr | 4 | 33 | 33 | 18 | 6 | 9 | 4 | |Kravar |HUMAN |Ftr | 4 | 41 | 41 | 15 | 7 | 3 | 2 | |Ferawyn |WILD_ELF|Dru | 3 | 22 | 25 | 16 | 5 | 4 | 7 | <OOC> Kravar nods, except for the shield GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (14)+6: 20 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d8+1: (1)+1: 2 GAME: Rogun damaged Kravar for 2 points. 39 remaining. <OOC> Rogun says, "You can all roll perception again." GAME: Remethaer rolls PErception: (12)+10: 22 GAME: Ferawyn rolls perception: (20)+12: 32 GAME: Kravar rolls perception: (12)+5: 17 A third arrow flies in from the same direction. This time is strikes Kravar as he physically shields Ferawyn with his own body. *Remethaer* Same results. The large form is firing arrows. You get the sense there's something else lurking. If the arrows are coming from the north the other shapes are east and west making the camp nearly surrounded. *Kravar* Now you can make out the vague shape of a large creature. Approximately ten feet tall sixty feet beyond the encampment. It's shooting arrows. *Ferawyn* The large creature continues to draw and fire arrows. It's not attempting to move at this point. You pick back up the other two creatures. If the arrows are coming from the north the other shapes are east and west making the camp nearly surrounded. <OOC> Rogun says, "Reme you are up." Kravar glowers at the arrow, then nods at Ferawyn. He slides away his sword and sets down his shield, coming up holding his bow. Then an arrow hits him, making him flinch. <OOC> Remethaer says, "Which side was the fallen tree on?" <OOC> Remethaer says, "At the base of the hill, I mean." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Or halfway up, whatever it was." <OOC> Rogun says, "East side." <OOC> Rogun says, "Arrows are coming from the North (for all)." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Try to stealth down to that cover with the dog and pick out what's trying to flank us." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Or move down to the cover and stealth behind it, in whichever order it works." <OOC> Elessa says, "Back" GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+8: (14)+8: 22 GAME: Elessa rolls init: (6)+4: 10 <OOC> Rogun says, "We'll say the log is about sixty feet east." GAME: Elessa rolls initiative: Roll: 13 + Bonus: 4 = Total: 17 Remethaer makes it about thirty feet down the hill towards the cover of the log. At this distance his dog halts and moves protectively with its hackles raised. At that same moment a lupine form rises to a ready position and snarls lowly at the ranger and his companion. (DM Emit) <OOC> Rogun says, "Do you want to continue to move with your other action?" <OOC> Remethaer says, "I'll pop off a shot with the rifle if that's the case. The Dog will get the 'Guard' (me) command as a free action." <OOC> Rogun says, "Fire away." GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d20+11: (4)+11: 15 <OOC> Remethaer says, "Versus touch armor." <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit." GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d12+2: (10)+2: 12 <OOC> Remethaer says, "It's Magic (for DR, if needed)." <OOC> Rogun says, "Severely wounded." ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Elessa ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Elessa I'll let you have last action this round as if you held." <OOC> Elessa says, "Sure, which would be stand up, pull out her shortbow" <OOC> Rogun says, "Once Reme poses I'll do W1 (this was his target) and W2 and then it'll be on you." <OOC> Rogun says, "Noted." <OOC> Rogun says, "Go ahead and prep that pose." <OOC> Elessa says, "Awesome. I'll prep it" "They're attempting to flank," Remethaer observes, turning a slow circle to catch the movement near the base of the hill. "I'll be back." He snaps his finger and dips low to scuttle towards the east, glancing this way and that as he goes. When the dog blocks the Xian's path the rifle comes up by reflex, his thumb tracing out the intricate patterns of the arming plate. The spiral-flash of mana and a thunderous report conjures a stifled yip and a violent splash of blood from the lupine form. As the ranger raises his rifle the wolf goes low in preparation to strike. However, the ranger is faster and the shot connects solidly causing a pained yip to coincide with the noise of the gunshot. The wolf turns and begins to retreat into the night. <OOC> Rogun says, "Elessa may pose." <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "My elemental should be here by now......" <OOC> Rogun says, "Yes." Elessa takes a few extra seconds to wake up from Reme's nudge and the words eventually processed. She quickly hears the others moving about and something about something coming into camp. She quickly looks around and sees that they are moving off and quickly scrambles to her feet. Not bothering with her armor, she grabs her shortbow and several arrows. Turning, she quickly looks over to where the others went to make sure she knew where the dangers seem to be coming from. <OOC> Rogun says, "It's thirty feet out. The archer is thirty feet beyond it." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "so it's going to go behind the bow firing dude, since it's speed is 50......and it'll do a slam attack." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d20+4: (13)+4: 17 <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d4: (4): 4 <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "reflex save" GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+4: (4)+4: 8 <OOC> Rogun says, "Save fail." GAME: Rogun rolls 1d4: (1): 1 <OOC> Rogun says, "Burns for 1 round." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d20+5: (7)+5: 12 <OOC> Ferawyn says, "vs touch" <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit on the storm burst." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d6+1: (1)+1: 2 <OOC> Ferawyn says, "non lethal damage." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "and a -2 on it's attack." ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Elessa ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Kravar. Now that the elemental is crawling on it you can see its a big green giant-like creature with a bow." <OOC> Rogun says, "You are up." At the end of her chanting, Ferawyn pops her hands together, which seems to be enough to spark a fire into existence. That fire mosves with a life of it's own and immediately goes after the archer attacking them, seeting his clothes on fire. Ferawyn smiles a bit, but then extends her hand towards the now lit archer, blowing winds and a bit of rocks against it.....a wind powerful enough to hurt and mess up his aim a little. <OOC> Kravar charges it! with unarmed strike:) <OOC> Rogun says, "Its just within range. Roll away." GAME: Kravar rolls melee: (5)+8: 13 <OOC> Rogun says, "Miss." <OOC> Rogun says, "Elessa." <OOC> Kravar says, "hmm is it also flanked?" <OOC> Rogun says, "No. The elemental is more or less in the same square but not behind it." <OOC> Elessa says, "How far away is it from where I woke up?" <OOC> Rogun says, "About sixty feet." <OOC> Elessa says, "Move thirty feet closer and fire." <OOC> Rogun says, "Do you have precise shot?" <OOC> Elessa says, "No, I'm thinking actually. Scratch that, drop bow, double move to the thing, drawing shortsword as I do, to nearest square, I'm not going to do a charge." <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay." <OOC> Rogun says, "Pose it." GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+8: (9)+8: 17 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+8: (7)+8: 15 <OOC> Rogun says, "AC on small fire elemental is 16 I believe." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "it is." <OOC> Rogun says, "Both misses. Due to the Storm burst." Now able to see the creature and it not being as far as she thought, Elessa drops her bow and arrows and quickly moves closer to the thing. She has her sword and pulls it out and gets up to the creature with the bow. Nope, it's not going to get away with sneaking up on them that easily. GAME: Rogun rolls 1d4: (1): 1 The light cast by the elemental partially illuminates the archer. It is a tall spindly creature with moss-like hair on its head, chest, and under its arms with greenish brown skin that is almost bark-like in appearance with a dingy rag-like loin cloth. Whereas it was holding the bow the bang from Remethaer's gun catches its attention and at nearly the same instant a jittery fire elemental heaves itself onto its form. Although the tiny spark of flame is nearly inconsequential to its largish form the elemental has a profound psychological effect for as its hair catches fire it gives a deafening shriek and hurls its bow to the ground as the air whips to life sending debris and dirt upon its form and into its eyes. Either unaware, or too distracted to respond to the encroaching Kravar and Elessa it slashes madly at the tiny elemental. The spark flits about, seeming unaffected by the massive claws, as it singes away small sections of flesh. <OOC> Rogun says, "Reme" <OOC> Remethaer says, "SKip me, sorry. Phonecall." <OOC> Rogun says, "W1 is still running." <OOC> Rogun says, "W2 takes no action." <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "Elemental attacks again." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d20+4: (17)+4: 21 <OOC> Rogun says, "Ok." GAME: Ferawyn rolls 1d4: (3): 3 <OOC> Ferawyn says, "reflex save" GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+4: (7)+4: 11 <OOC> Ferawyn says, "got it. DC was 11" <OOC> Ferawyn says, "and storm burst again." <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll it." GAME: Ferawyn rolls ranged: (5)+5: 10 <OOC> Rogun says, "Miss." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Alright. Back, I can shoot at the wolf when you're ready. Sorry. :)" <OOC> Rogun says, "As it runs? Okay." <OOC> Ferawyn holds her pose for the moment. <OOC> Rogun says, "The range on your gun is 40?" <OOC> Remethaer says, "Haha, I totally missed it running. Sorry, I'll head back up to the top of the hill and keep an eye out for the other." <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. :)" <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll perception." GAME: Remethaer rolls PErception: (4)+10: 14 <OOC> Rogun says, "You're not quite sure where it is at the moment." <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Ferawyn is posing. <OOC> Rogun says, "Kravar." <OOC> Kravar says, "I will drop my bow. pull out sword and go for a 2 handed power attack" Ferawyn, smiling as the elemental attacks again, holds out her hands and blast another bit of wind and debris at the archer, but in his flailing, seems to have moved away from where he was..... <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll it." GAME: Kravar rolls weapon1: (11)+9: 20 <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit." GAME: Kravar rolls 1d8+15: (4)+15: 19 <OOC> Rogun says, "Very good damage." Remethaer watches the wolf retreat for a moment before he's sure the animal isn't going to turn and doubleback-- or as sure as one can be in this world. He dances up the side of the hill to find its top once more, taking a few steps past the crown to stare down at the opposite side of the hill. ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Elessa ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Elessa." <OOC> Elessa says, "Would I be able to move into flank with Kravar easily or would that require an acrobatics check?" <OOC> Rogun says, "It would require acrobatics." Kravar's expression show his mounting frustration. and also leads to a bit of recklessness. Dropping his bow, hedrags the longsword out and hews at t he archer in a powerful two-handed grip like the berserkers of legend." GAME: Elessa rolls acrobatics: (17)+9: 26 <OOC> Elessa says, "I think I make that check?" <OOC> Rogun says, "You do." <OOC> Rogun says, "So now you are flanking." <OOC> Elessa says, "Yay" GAME: Elessa rolls melee+2: (2)+3+2: 7 <OOC> Rogun says, "Miss. :)" GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+8: (12)+8: 20 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+8: (3)+8: 11 GAME: Rogun rolls 1d6+5: (3)+5: 8 The troll is still frenzied at the fire which is moving about its form. It claws angrily actually catching it one time such that the flame burns a lot less brightly. Meanwhile the various wounds that have been inflicted upon it can be seen to visibly mend as the bleeding staunches almost immediately and the great gash Kravar inflicted starts to rapidly close. Although the various burns seem unaffected by this regeneration. <OOC> Rogun says, "Reme." <OOC> Remethaer will head down to find the other wolf. <OOC> Rogun says, "Roll perception." GAME: Rogun rolls 1d20+6: (11)+6: 17 <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn go ahead and declare your action." GAME: Remethaer rolls Perception: (3)+10: 13 <OOC> Rogun says, "You move 30 feet but cannot find the wolf. Do you want to continue to move any direction?" <OOC> Rogun says, "Actually. Roll for you dog." GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d20+5: (18)+5: 23 <OOC> Remethaer says, "8 more if Scent applies." Remethaer's dog lifts its nose as the move down the hill. It swings its head to a point further down the western side of the slope between its current position and the troll and growls. <OOC> Rogun says, "Ferawyn." <OOC> Remethaer will ready to attack if it steps out! <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. :)" <OOC> Ferawyn says, "This should be the last round for the elemental....so one more attack for that."

Kravar." The little fire elemental is still going after the troll, and sets it on fire yet again. Ferawyn tries to hit it with another storm burst, but she blasts the wind in a different direction....... The Redridge Mastiff bristles, its great mane rolling as the muscles play beneath. Remethaer slows with the rifle at the ready and blue motes of energy play between his thumb and the arming plate. Trails of warm aether already rising slowly from the long barrel. <OOC> Kravar is gonna pull out a dagger and do a full attack with two weapon fighting <OOC> Rogun says, "Okay. You are flanking with Elessa." GAME: Kravar rolls weapon1+2: (11)+9+2: 22 GAME: Kravar rolls melee+2: (7)+8+2: 17 <OOC> Rogun says, "Double hit."

GAME: Rogun rolls 1d4: (3): 3 Kravar eyes the Troll's wounds healing, but in true Aesir fashion his response is to inflict even more wounds. Taking one of his hands offf of his sword, he instead draws a dagger and attacks with both weapons.

Elessa frowns as she had completely missed her attack earlier. This time, she slashes at it and in a decent spot too but whirls back in order to try and and make sure it doesn't get at her. Blow after blow lands upon the troll. Its flesh is alight again and although the wind and rocks narrowly miss it Kravar's double slash and Elessa's well-aimed flay open its flesh and green-black blood pours over them as it almost falls to its knees. As the fire elemental dims, its horrid face turns to Kravar and with a gruesome snarl. It swings wildly at the man its hooked claws glittering in the fire that still burns its flesh. The first blow comes in on the man's left side, ripping into his ribcage and the second hooks him at about his shoulder. For a moment the troll's hooks are trapped and then, with a jerk, it rends them free inflicting mighty damage upon the Aesir in the process. ===== Current Initiative Order ========= ---------------------------------------- 21 Ferawyn ---------------------------------------- 19 Kravar ---------------------------------------- 17 Elessa ---------------------------------------- 17 Interloper_T1 ---------------------------------------- 12 Remethaer ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W1 ---------------------------------------- 4 Interloper_W2 ---------------------------------------- ======================================== <OOC> Rogun says, "Reme." <OOC> Remethaer says, "Alrighty. Dog will Guard where we are, I'll take a 30' towards the melee and pop off a shot at the troll." <OOC> Rogun says, "If you have precise shot roll normal to-hit. That should get you roughly 15 feet from it." GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d20+12-4: (15)+12+-4: 23 <OOC> Remethaer says, "Touch!" <OOC> Rogun says, "Hit." GAME: Remethaer rolls 1d12+2: (11)+2: 13 <OOC> Rogun says, "You may dramatically slay it." "Dog," Remethaer snaps his fingers to draw the mastiff's attention, flicking a quick gesture before darting closer to the melee. The arming plate is already primed, the rifle charged with a manaload as he brings the barrel up once more. Again, the artifact discharges a raucous report and the magicite flares outward to push the condensed ball of energy into the troll. The beast takes the blast full force, regenerative matter explodes backwards to smear the flora behind it before toppling singed, stabbed, and beaten. In the near-distance the wolf rises from its position as if intent upon helping its master. However, the wounds inflicted upon the troll come so quickly that animal instincts override its protective instincts for it is clear it will not survive when so heavily outnumbered. The wolf turns and rushes down the hill disappearing into the night. The hunks of regenerative matter twitch vaguely.. Those close by would be able to note that they appear to be growing larger - after a time. <OOC> Rogun says, "Disregard inits at this time." <OOC> Rogun says, "You may RP freely for a bit." <OOC> Ferawyn says, "Rogun.....I'm gonna roll knowledge/nature for a bit of info for trolls." Kravar sheathes his blades, collects his bow and then pauses to eye the troll's remains. "Did you see that? That piece...it moved." GAME: Ferawyn rolls knowledge/nature: (17)+9: 26 <OOC> Rogun says, "That is sufficent to understand the nature of trolls and fire." <OOC> Ferawyn nods. Elessa cringes a bit as the thing falls over and dies. "That is... it's twitching," she frowns. "Why is it twitching?" Walking closer, Ferawyn grits her teeth as she sees the pieces move. "Light another fire. We need to burn the body, quickly!" The largest section of troll remains is clearly regenerating itself. The twitching becomes spastic muscular action as nerve ending tie themselves together and receive uncoordinated signals. The next largest piece is now discernable as a section of its shoulder and upper-arm. It's quickly knitting the lower-arm and the torso appears to be thickening. The next few largest pieces continue to grow. Elessa looks to Ferawyn, "I think the fire at camp is still burning." She turns quickly in order to go and see if she could get a lit timber in order to try and burn the troll body. Kravar rushes back up to the hilltop and their campsite, slinging his bow across his back (and after a moment's hesitation, the shield he dropped earlier). Then he grabs logs from their fire, one in each hand. Finally he runs back to the spot the troll fell, offering one of the makeshift torches to Ferawyn. "Burn every piece?" Ferawyn says, "every single piece, otherwise we'll have a completely new troll from each piece!" Ferawyn then, once she realizes she's being handed a torch, grabs the torch and starts putting it to every small piece......then working on the larger one if no one else hits the body first. Remethaer whistles the Dog off, breaking the Redridge mastiff's posturing as he lowers his own weapon. "Never a dull moment!" He's shouting. Just a little. But then his weapon isn't the most quiet in the many worlds. He sniffs as he walks over and plucks a smokey, wax-stoppered vial from one of the pockets of his duffel coat... but holds onto it as people run about with torch logs. Kravar nods in understanding and then starts with the largest piece, holding the burning log next to it, waiting until the troll bits blacken and then moving over to the another side and repeating the process. Elessa has some logs too and starts putting the body to the fire as well. "It doesn't look like we have very long..." She looks over to Kravar though as he runs around. "Are you okay? It looked like you took a hard hit from it during the fight." The pieces shrivel and shrink when the heat is applied as if particularly flammable in this weakened state. With time you are able to identify and incinerate every piece. Soon the entire area reeks nauseatingly of burned troll. The entire affair took only minutes and at least three hours of darkness remain. Whether the adventurers choose to remain so-as to rest and heal Kravar or start their trek earlier to get away from the troll stench no other encounters come before the dawn. In the far distance there is lonely sound of a lonely wolf howling.. ..and then, moments later, a second howl can be heard. -=FADE OUT=-
