Part 1: Fighters Academy (IC Section 1)

[Rex]

Yagul

"Direction doesn't matter to me, do you still want me bringing up the rear?"

[GreyWolfVT]

Map: Before


Ferris opens the door.

New Room Description:
The chill in this room is almost as heavy as is the dust. Four wooden chairs surround a carved mahogany table. Overlooking the scene are more than a half dozen pairs of glass eyes, winking hack from the numerous stuffed hoar, deer, and other animal heads on the south and east walls. A stuffed brown hear is frozen in a snarling charge; it stands in the southeast corner. A skeleton with four arms holds guard in front of the door on the west wall. Twin pinpricks of blue light dance in its dark eye sockets. It holds a sword, a hand axe, a mace, and another sword in its hands.

Ferris

"oh $!@#. I might be needing that potion!" The gnome exclaims as he steps into the room.

to be fair if I have opened the door to view stuff he would have taken a step forward.

So I immediately cast 'Darkness' upon myself and roll tumbling across the room to the direction of the table in the middle. Hoping the sudden absence of all light makes me more difficult to be hit by the skeletons impending attacks.

[Rex]

Yagul

Can Yagul see anything once the Darkness spell is cast? Did he see the skeleton before the spell was cast?

[tarlyn]

Monty


The Paladin, upon spying the skeleton, unstraps her quarterstaff, and moves to face the undead thing head on!

Unsure about how using it two handed works and two attacks.

As well, like Rex, do we still see the skeleton due to the darkness?

In case we can not see it due to darkness Monty will use her detect evil power to guide everyone to approximate area it is.

[GreyWolfVT]

sorry I did not move any PC tokens on the map Ferris would be just inside the door, Yagul was the closest to the door at the time it was opened so yes he would see into the room though most likely if nobody else moved forward nobody but Ferris would see the Skeleton other than perhaps Yagul it would be up to them to relay this information. As for how 2-handed attacks work RTFM (not in a rude manner, Read the Friendly Manual aka PHB ) Darkness was cast directly on Ferris if I read that correctly so the darkness moves with the gnome. So yes you can see through it.

[tarlyn]

Monty

She does not have Two Handed Weapon slot for a 1/4 staff type so she will just whack at the Skellie once


Attack with the Quarterstaff [1d6] = 5

Definitely a miss!

[Rex]

Yagul

"Skeleton, to your left as you pass through the door."

Yahul moves on the skeleton and attacks.

Scimitar [1d20+2] = 18+2 = 20 to hit [1d8+5] = 3+5 = 8 damage
Scimitar [1d20+2] = 12+2 = 14 to hit [1d8+5] = 4+5 = 9 damage

If he ends up fighting in the darkness, he has the blind fighting NWP so he is -2 instead of -4.

[wolfpack]

Mctavish attempts to turn the undead

[Antman9]

Uther

Uther will manuever himself and prepare to cast Magic Missile if an opening presents itself, and the rest of the party is clear.

If Needed:

Magic Missile [1d4+1] = 1+1 = 2[1d4+1] = 4+1 = 5

[Darklin2]

Shade

remains in the room and moves to the other side of the door as his companions pass through.

[GreyWolfVT]

McTavish tries to turn but for some reason or another the crazy four armed skeleton does not move the turn appears to have had no effect. please note this may or may not be based on the turn roll but could in fact mean the creature is not what it appears to be.

[Darklin2]

OOC- It definitely is not what it appears to be. It has a pair of Goggles where it's junk should be.

[GreyWolfVT]

Battle with a 4 armed Skeleton R0

NPC/Monster
4 Armed Skeleton attacks Yagul as that was the first being into the room it could locate, hitting for 10 dmg! as 3 of 4 swords strike him.

4 Armed Skeleton [1d20] = 20 to hit, [1d8] = 6 dmg, [1d20] = 12 to hit, [1d6] = 3 dmg 4 Armed Skeleton [1d20] = 12 to hit, [1d8] = 1 dmg, [1d20] = 5 to hit, [1d6] = 1 dmg

Shade moves out of the way to let the others into the room.

Yeah ,,, no comment lololololol

[tarlyn]

Monty

Monty tries again to attack the Skeleton with her Quarterstaff.

Attack on Skeleton [1d20] = 7

[Rex]

Yagul

Continues to press his attacks.

Scimitar [1d20+2] = 17+2 = 19 to hit [1d8+5] = 2+5 = 7 damage

Scimitar [1d20+2] = 15+2 = 17 to hit [1d8+5] = 2+5 = 7 damage

Scimitar [1d20+2] = 17+2 = 19 to hit [1d8+5] = 8+5 = 13 damage

Scimitar [1d20+2] = 13+2 = 15 to hit [1d8+5] = 2+5 = 7 damage

Yagul needs a 16 to hit AC 2, so he hits 3 out of 4 times for 27 HP damage.

Monty is using her staff as slashing dmg is considerably less than it is instead of a bludgeoning. Though I've been rolling like shyte lol

[Rex]

I figure my pluses with the scimitar make up for the half damage from slashing weapons.

[Bluetongue]

Ferris

On hands and knees he crawls under the table, surrounded by darkness. He fiddles through some pouches and loads his pick bow contraption. When he is certain the noise of battle, sword upon sword and booted feet are still away from him, he will.dismiss the darkness spell of able.
