Heading south

Thia backs out of the archway room through the archway and moves to see what is going on in the room south.

Thia will use Biting Volley on Maulspike and use Elven accuracy to reroll if she misses.

Thia will then use an AP to get some hits back since she can now see Sonya and Twin Strike Maulspike.

Thia has already used Biting Volley.

Those two always get turned around in my head. I meant two fanged strike. I even went and looked them up and still wrote the wrong one.

Thanks.

Miri uses an action point
Flaming Sphere on the red orc 29 vs Ref hits for 11hp of fire damage.

At the end of Miri's turn she rolls her saves...

Slowed 1 failed. Mire remains immobilized (save ends)




NPC's turn...

NPC's turn:

Green Gargoyle:
The green gargoyle takes 5hp of fire damage.

Standard: use Hit & Run on Miri
H&R 19 vs Ac miss. The gargoyle them moves east and south back to the doorway.

At the end of his turn it looks like he's still on fire.

The red gargoyle takes 9hp of fire damage from the flaming sphere.

Standard: take stone form.

Medusa:
Standard: shoot Kaddim with longbow 26 vs Ac miss
Move: move back into the room to the south and out of sight.

Map to follow...
Sonya's turn, then Kaddim

Current map:



PC status:
Kaddim 59/79hp with 10/11 surges (immobilized)

Miri 58/58hp with 9/9 surges (blind, immobilized)

Damn. Hopefully Kaddim & I make our next saves...

Kaddim, can you move the Ogre, or get it within 5 hits? (he's on fire, so close will drop him) Going after the Medusa will be much easier once we drop Maulspike. My guess is, we'll need to defeat her to un-stone Candelos...

I'm out of abilites that move creatures and I'm immobilized.
Free: Open Eyes
Standard: Lightning Lure on Ogre.
Free action: Close Eyes if medusa comes into view.

LL 31 vs Fort hits for 10hp of damage.

At the end of Kaddim's turn he rolls his save...
Immobilize 8 failure. Kaddim is now petrified. (looks like it's just the girls again...)



Ogre's turn:
At the start of the ogre's turn he takes 5hp of fire damage.

Standard: Attack Sonya 25 vs Ac hits for 16hp of damage. Sonya is knocked prone.

At the end of the ogre's turn it looks like he's still on fire.

Thia's turn, then Miri...

Free Action: "Thia, don't worry abou the Ogre, he's almost down. Try to run over here quick and help Miri before she turns to stone!"
Side Note, Brad, even though Sonya already went, I think I was near the bottom of the order. Can you delay until after me and I can try to do a Heal Check on you again?

Teramotos wrote:Can you delay until after me and I can try to do a
Heal Check on you again?

I think that's a good idea. The only thing is, delaying will cancel the
'Flaming Sphere' I've been maintaining when my turn is supposed to end.
The red Gar-Orc will get away (to be fought later with the Medusa).

I can barely see any green on the Ogre's life bar and he's still on
fire...maybe we can turn him to our side? In any case, we shouldn't give him another chance to flee & have to fight him again with the Medusa...

Oh, and on my turn, I'll delay until after Sonya goes.

Thia will use disruptive strike on the ogres attack on Sonya.

I believe I have just enough movement to make it to Miri, if not I will run.

Thia will try to make a heal check on Miri.

Krystoff wrote:Thia will use disruptive strike on the ogres attack on Sonya.

Thia will try to make a heal check on Miri.

Thia's turn:
Thia uses Disruptive Strike as an interrupt against the ogre's attack.
DS 22 vs Ac miss

Move: Thia moves 7 south to get adjacent to Miri.

Standard: attempt a heal check 16+9=25 success. Miri gains a +2 bonus on a saving throw.






Miri's turn...
Since Thia made the check, did you still want to delay?

Dwarmaj wrote:

Definitely yes. I can get up to +8 bonus, and I think I'm the best chance to unstone the boys (if I'm not stone myself).

Since Miri is delaying, is it Sonya's turn, or the NPC's?

NPC's turn...

Red Gargoyle:
Sensing the fire sphere is gone, he'll move, then use Hit & Run on Thia.
Move: move to east doorway
Standard: use Hit & Run 33 vs Ac hits for 8hp of damage. Thia is knocked prone.

Green Gargoyle:
Move: move north 1
Standard: use Hit & Run on Sonya
H&R 21+2 vs Ac miss

Medusa:
Move: move east and north
Standard Attack Miri with longbow
Longbow 35 vs Ac (critical) hit for 15hp of poison damage.
Secondary attack on Miri 17 vs Fort miss



Sonya's turn, then the ogre...

Standard Action: Heal Check on Miri
Move Action: Stand up (again)
Minor Action: Inspiring Word w Saving Inspiration on Miri (the save will be vs. the poison if a save can stop such). If the poison is for just a round, then I'll leave it up to Miri to take the extra 2d6 hits of healing, or make a save right now to potentially become stone or un-immobilized. Hopefully I made my heal check. In fact, in case Miri wants to move at the start of her turn, I'll leave it up to her if she wants to make a save vs. poison or immobilize.

Free Action: darn, the medusa is in view again. Close eyes.

Minor: Inspiring Word on Miri. Miri uses a healing surge and gains 14hp (now at 57/58hp 8/9 surges).

Miri can either gain 1 additional hp or make her save now before her turn.

The longbow attack from the medusa does not allow a save, unless the secondary atttack hits...

Miri's turn...

Miri's turn...

I'd rather get my turn in for sure, and have more hits...

minor/move actions: none (immobilized)

standard action: cast 'Enemies Abound' on Ogre & green Gar-Orc

note: this will provoke an AoO... if the Gar-Orc hits, I will use an interrupt (Wizard's Escape) to teleport 3 squares NW + 2 squares N (or to the edge of the room... current map didn't go that high), then same standard action

free action: if I didn't use the interrupt, close eyes
free action: "Thank you ladies!"

done.

EA vs the gargoyle 15 vs Will miss
EA vs the ogre 21 vs Will hits for 10hp of psychic damage.

Miri provokes an AoO 22 vs Ac miss.

Immobilized 16+4=20 success

Miri closes her eyes and is now blind.

Question: Can ongoing damage be chosen to be non-lethal? If so, Miri will choose subdual damage for Maulspike. (Otherwise, oh well.)

Thia HQ's the red gargoyle will crawl 2 spaces east and 1 space NE and then twin strike the red gargoyle.

Miri thinks to self: "Hmm... two of our girls are on their knees and two of our boys are rock hard..."

bradly wrote:Question: Can ongoing damage be chosen to be non-lethal? If so, Miri will choose subdual damage for Maulspike. (Otherwise, oh well.)

I don't think ongoing damage can be non-lethal, especially since it continues even when the target is down.

But PHB p295 only states:
When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points or fewer, you can choose to knock it unconscious rather than kill it.

I guess it depends on whether Miri is considered to have reduced it to 0 or not.

I still lean toward no, but that's me...

Krystoff wrote:Thia HQ's the red gargoyle will crawl 2 spaces east and 1 space NE and then twin strike the red gargoyle.

The red gargoyle is adjacent to you and will get an AoO if you move/crawl away from it.

Your attacks from prone are also at a minus.

Did you want to crawl and attack from prone or just stand and shoot?

Current map:

I will just stand and shoot. I get prime shot that way as well for a +1.

Thia's turn:
Move: stand up
Minor: HQ the red gargoyle

Standard: Twin Strike the red gargoyle
The red gargoyle gets an AoO on Thia 24 vs Ac hits for 12hp of damage.

TS #1 20+1 vs Ac hits for 17+3hp of damage
TS #2 21+1 vs Ac hits for 15hp of damage

The red gargoyle looks badly wounded...

NPC's turn

NPC's turn:

Red Gargoyle:
Move: move north
Standard: take stone form

Green Gargoyle:
Standard: use Hit & Run on Sonya 21 vs Ac miss

Medusa:
Move: move south of Sonya
Standard: The medusa leans forward and the snakes in her hair lash out and attack Sonya.
Snakey Hair 35 vs Ac (critical) hit for 11hp of damage. Sonya gains a -2 to Fort defense and 10 ongoing poison damage. Sonya is currently at 11/66hp with 9/9 surges.




Sonya's turn...

At the start of Sonya's turn she takes 10hp of poison damage and is reduced to 1/66hp.

Sonya is currently flanked by the medusa and the green gargoyle.

Where's a +1 snakey tooth when you need one?

I can't believe how lucky you guys have been getting. It may not seem that way with two defenders down, but it could be a lot worse...

When Thia gets hit by the AoO she will shift NE NE with yield ground which should still keep her in range for prime shot.

Dwarmaj wrote:Where's a +1 snakey tooth when you need one?

Could have been a lot better too. They're both down with full hits/surges. I thought this encounter would be a cake walk until we gave up the East flank...

Krystoff wrote:When Thia gets hit by the AoO she will shift NE NE with yield ground which should still keep her in range for prime shot.

I don't think you can use an interrupt on your own turn.
PHB p268

Immediate Action:Once per Round:
You can take only one immediate action per round, either an immediate interrupt or an immediate reaction. If you haven’t taken an immediate action since the end of your last turn, you can take one when a trigger allows you to. You can’t take an immediate action on your own turn.

Sonya's turn:
Minor Action: Rousing Words on self for two surges + 10 hits (42 total hits back)
Free Action: Open Eyes
Standard Action: Lions Roar on Medusa + 13 vs AC 2d12+6 and I'll use the healing surge on myself for 16 more hits back (should put me at 59 total).
Move Action: Shift to SE
End turn, note, if I have to make any saves vs. poison, my amulet gives me + 2.
Keep eyes open (gamble)...

Hey, I know I can if he weren't stone, but can I still move through Kaddim's square? Is he still considered an ally? Is it difficult terrain? Impassable? (Asking for subsequent rounds, not this one)

Standard: attack the medusa with staff
MBA 23 vs Ac miss





Thia's turn...



The square where Kaddim is at isn't totally immpassible, but very hard to get through. You can either try pushing him out the way or squeeze past him/climb over him. Either has a chance of making him fall which could damage him. He is not considered an ally at the moment.

Thia HQ's the green gargoyle.

Thia will move as far as she can north of the doorway accepting the AoO. She does have defensive mobility.

She will then twin strike the green gargoyle.

Free Action: Focus on the gargoyle, they are fairly squishy for being made of stone!

Thia's turn: (sorry, I have her marked as prone, but she's not)
Move: move north provoking an AoO from the green gargoyle
AoO 27 vs Ac hits for 14hp of damage.
Thia is currently at 18/65hp with 6/7 surges

Standard: use Twin Strike w/HQ on the green gargoyle
TS #1 15 vs Ac miss
TS #2 25 vs Ac hits for 10+5hp of damage.


NPC's turn...

Thia, I'm out of heals...

I still have a second wind and I believe we have heal pots somewhere. They might be stone though. One hit and that guys is almost halfway down. Then we can focus on the Medusa.

NPC's turn:

Red Gargoyle:
no actions... Sonya can see that his wounds do seem to be healing...

Green Gargoyle:
Standard: use Hit & Run on Sonya
H&R 18+2 vs Ac miss

The gargoyle is now adjacent to Sonya to the west. And north of Miri.

Medusa:
Standard: Attack Miri
Snakey Hair 32+2 vs Ac hits for 7hp of damage. Miri gains -2 to Fort defense and 10 ongoing poison damage.

Ouch! We'll have to interrupt that...

Use 'Wizard's Escape' (hit too well to use staff of defense or shield...) and teleport either 3 N +2 NE or directly SE of Thia (I can't remember if max distance is 5 or 8... would rather be by Thia)

You need LoS for a teleport and from Miri's last turn (https://nwgamers.forumotion.com/online-role-play-gaming-f14/heading-south-t568-180.htm#7882) she has her eyes closed.

Sorry, no interrupt.
