Vassarious steps in closer and summons up their Chi and lets loose a roar at the beast, hoping to stop it in it's tracks and make it rethink this folly

Kiai!
HT Based Style! (resisted by Will)

3d6 <= 15
3 + 6 + 3 = 12 ... success with a margin of +3

I climb up, to get above the armadillo.

Success by 9 if it matters
Halcyone starts climbing up the portal frame, she will finish next round (not sure where else you would climb up)

Armadillo rolls a 13... failure by 1! It is mentally stunned and thus will not take an action! (you are at 3 yards, I think).

Arlon mumbles "No knife" and generates lightening in his hands (5 dice)


Haley looks around for a stick

OK. On the turn after this, I'll climb on the ceiling of the cavern until I get above the Armadillo.

The armadillo fails its will roll to recover from stunning


Haley looks around for a stick some more, but doesn't see one


Arlon charges up his lightning blast to 10d6 and shouts "keep it stunned for me! Its vicious!"


Halcyone climbs to the top of the portal frame, where she can reach the ceiling. I'm going to guess rule on the ceiling is a -5. (Halcyone has skill 18)


Vassarious tries to descalate the situation while the armadillo recovers.

I suppose Vassarious isn't going change tactics just because the armadillo was stunned for anther second.



And it rolls 13 and remains stunned. Its will is 12, I swear I didn't think the stun would be this effective.



Halcyone is above the armadillo, ready to drop down when ready.



Haley still hasn't found anything. she might be ready to give up the search


Arlon extends his charged up finder and a bolt of lightening hits the armadillo. Rolled damage is 20 (on 10d6-10), but armor absorbs 8 of the damage (organic armor is rather useful against lightening.) That's still 12 damage, but that's only a barely a major wound. The armadillo succeeds against the stunning roll from damage, but not from electricity. It now has to succeed at both HT and Will to become unstunned. Arlon has spent most of his mana on the spell.

I drop down and grab on to it, then put it into a choke hold.

Then with my third attack I guess I'll smack it. Do I see anything soft to hit?

Vassarious is content to observe unless there is an unexpected development. They feel that destroying this beast was likely unnecessary.

Stunned, the armadillo fails against both of those attacks.

its neck? also its belly or eyes. I await the rest of your action



Arlon steps back. Haley picks up a rock.
