[DFRPG] Crawl! IC

[Hide]

As the enemy prepares, Bain whispers:

Then it is about 16 men, thank you guys.

Vicious, you can fight along Stone-maul; move as one, it will be harder for them to strike you. Take a step and then make a mighty defense. I will support you from cover.

Gathika, bring the torch, but don’t set fire on it. Keep close, but not exposed.

After his allies prepare, Bain proceeds to camouflage and steps in for combat...

Camouflage SL16:
3d6=6... Critical Success!

He speaks to himself…

These bandits knew they couldn't change their situation, so instead of reflecting on themselves, they blamed the beasts. . .

Gathika follows Bain strategy, she stands a yard away from Bain.

Once Vic is behind stonemaul, Telrith gives his order:


"Stonemaul, full speed ahead!"

The earth elemental keeps going, faithful to the end.

TURN 5

Seeing Vic and his stone escort move up, the bad guys strike. 4 of them fire their pistol crossbows at Vic, 2 fire bows at Vic, and one throws an oil bottle with a lit wick at him, too. The bowmen ditch their weapons after firing.

(OOC: I'm not on my main computer for this post, someone roll attacks for me, please.)
(4 pistol crossbows; skill 13 -4 Range +4 Acc&Aim -2 cover. Damage roll is 1d+0 imp)
(2 bows; skill 15 -4 Range +4 Acc&Aim -2 cover. Damage roll is 1d+1 imp.)
(Molotov cocktail; skill 14 -4 Range +4 attacking hex. Malfunction 13. Damage roll 1d(5) burning)

Vic clutches onto his sword and shouts

FINALLY A WORTHY CHALLENGE

His eyes bloodshot as the arrows try to make it to his chest.

One, two, three, four! With a combination of swings he parries each one of them, while the rest of the attacks fail to land.

The molotov cocktail was a dud, and will never explode.

(OOC: Vic, did you remember to factor in the penalty for multiple parries in a single turn?)

Yep, -2 for successive parry

[ajardoor]

(OOC: Good. Bain, your turn is first...)

Telrith, please tell Stonemaul to stay one step in front of me

Bain's shots severely harm or kill a total of four people as Vic braces for more.

(OOC: Gathika and Telrith, what say you?)
