[DFRPG] Crawl! IC

[ericthered]

Telrith has only a single stone axe today, called Cleave, made of rock with clear breakage lines in it.



If we're at the same spot we always use, that should mean that the fort is still there. Telrith will inspect the fort to see if it has deteriorated, and reform it if it has... but if not, he'll go to sleep.



Telrith hasn't brought anything new from town: he's been studying earth magic, not shopping. He greatly approves of the torches.

Before leaving to his watch-post, and after listening to Telrith’s remarks, Bain says:

That’s the attitude!
Burning your eyebrows so you don’t burn in hell.

Tell me one thing about CLEAVE, is he wielding an axe made of stone?
Would that be better than an actual axe?

OOC: Also, what is CLEAVE’s SM?

The party goes to sleep...Until they are awakened (except for their watch) by the incessant sound of buzzing one hour later!

Looking around with the help of the torches, they see a big swarm of winged giant ants converging erratically upon the camp!
They are all currently 15 yards away from the adventurers, but that could change soon!

Combat starts
The strange monsters fly on bizarre bee-like wings towards the camp. They move 12 yards through the air!
(OC: Bain, you are up.)

Bain speaks to himself with surprise:

WOW! 20 flying ants! It’s like moths to the flame!

The combat is on! He shoots 2 times and hits 2 bugs for 33 and 30 points of impaling damage.

[ajardoor]

The big bugs don't die like they should! Instead, they dissolve into weird liquids and fall to earth in puddles, one appears to be an strong acid and the other some kind of molten metal sizzling with heat. The bugs are not above anyone when they turn to gunk and fall, but the puddles collect on the ground...

(OC: Vic, it's your turn now...)

Telrith gave cleave a metal axe, which is better than a stone axe... though Telrith has looked at such options (and HIS axe might be be made of some exotic stone, I'd have to check). Best pure combat option would probably be two-handed axe. Right now they have a free hand for a torch.

cleave is a stone axe, with ST 11 and SM-1. Telrith summons larger elementals, but he only got one today, and he generally tries to get weapon wielders first.

Vic stands by Gathika's side and prepares a STOP HIT.

I will cover you sister.

[ajardoor]

Gathika turtles up.

(OC: Telrith, what do you and your elemental friend do?)

[ericthered]

Telrith reaches out his hand and calls down stones from the sky in front of him. The area effected is immediately in front of the front in the direction the flying ants are coming from. The bugs are in an area six yards across, and three yards away... telrith casts a spell eight yards across and 1 yard away, which should be enough to hit.

It costs a massive 8 Energy, taken from both FP and ER, he now has 5 FP.

Cleave performs wait to move: if any bug tries to approach Telrith Cleave will stand between his summoner and the bug.
