Sik will run and stop at the base of the cliff.

If he is within short range (less than 50 feet) of the pig man, he will fire one normal sling bullet at the pig man. Otherwise, he will remain a ready shooter for now.

To hit: [1d20+1]=9+1=10, damage with sling: [1d4]=1

Taibhse

Seeing that Belloc did not follow and witnessing the attack he cast Chill Touch and charges back into the combat his right hand glowing purple on his axe handle.

Does the pig man's attack break the "spell" over Ceana?
If not, she will stay where she is, trying to stop her companions from interfering.
If so, she will hurry back toward the fray and join in.

Akhilleus unsheathes his sword. He will charge at the pig man as soon as he is at the base at the cliff.

Since it's a charge, please tell me if I already can roll an attack in the next round or if I should wait until the next round, OM.

Since Akhilleus has Weapon Mastery with Broad Swords, does that mean he makes two attacks too while charging, or just one?

No, it does not.

You made it to the bottom at the end of this round, so his Charge and attack will happen at the end of this upcoming round. (so yes, please include an attack roll)

The Charge is its own attack, and happens after the end of up to full movement, so your normal attack routine of 2 or 3 attacks will start after the Charge round. (in other words no, he can't attack more than once on a Charge)

Belloc grinds his teeth, gripping his staff defensively as he anticipates the worst. Sidestepping the pigman's attack, he quickly casts Levitate, trying to lift himself out of reach.

Xenos

Once Xenos reaches the base of the cliff he will cast Chill Touch before engaging the pig-man in melee.

Under The Zakath Desert
Pig Faced Man?
No Idea On Time Or Day


Belloc starts casting a spell as the tusk bearing pink behemoth bites at him again, this time taking a large chunk of flesh from the Mage's left shoulder. 10 dam :shock:

With his magic spell suddenly disrupted by the severe pain of this injury, his plan to escape the danger appears thwarted. (you can make a 3d6 roll (add 10 from the damage) vs. INT to determine if he lost the spell or not) The porcine monster seems to enjoy the taste of human flesh much better than snakemen, as it swallows loudly and appears ready to take another bite.

Kain and Ceana do right by the monster, meeting the rest of the group at the base of the cliff 40 feet away as instructed to tell folks to wait there. Drest, Cyril, Sik, and Magda agree to stay put, though two of them attempt an attack from a distance. The Barbarian's sling stone bounces off the body of the threat without injury, and the spell cast by Cyril doesn't seem to have any effect on this dangerous underworldly beast.

Unable to prevent all six people from charging, Taibhse stops for a moment to cast a spell that will enhance his attack before turning to run towards the beast as soon as his magic is completed. Xenos does almost the exact same thing, using his magic before he too rushes in towards the melee.

Akhilleus sprints towards the action with a charging motion, his large sword at the ready. He lays a wicked blow on the horrible figure from behind, but to his sheer terror, even though his attack was perfectly successful, he sees no damage done to the monster from his mundane weapon. :?

Kainaxarthos

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! You need to stay put, no running off anywhere." He tries to impede the group from moving closer.

Kain calls over to Akhilleus. "Come back! He wants you to stay over here."

Sik, realizing the impotence of Akhilleus' sword against the swine, switches to his silver bullets.

He says a prayer to the first God he can think of - Ceana's Yoon'deh - and lets loose.

To hit: [1d20+1]=19+1=20, damage with sling: [1d4]=2

Xenos attacks the pig-man, hoping at the very least his spell has an effect:

Scimitar (long): to-hit [1d20+2]=19+2=21, damage [1d8+3]=6+3=9

Chill Touch damage
Chill Touch: [1d4]=4

(Sorcery save or - 1 to-hit and damage)

Found time for a little post :)

Magda & Skavi

While the warriors slip past Ceana and Kain, Magda tries to reason with the enthralled pair. "You call that thing 'Master,' but what do you know about him? While you hold us back, he seems to be trying to eat your friend Belloc."

To the others she calls out: "If steel can't harm it, you may have to tackle it. If we can hold it down, I've something that might work."

OOC:

just in case

Akhilleus

"A pox on it! I can't harm him!" Shouts the warrior in frustration. And then to Magda. "I'm not wrestling him. He might bite my shoulder off! Look at Belloc!" He says in terror.

He then switches weapons from broad sword to... silver dagger :roll:

Not rolling because I guess switching weapons is the action in itself. I'll roll if you tell me otherwise OM.

Drest

Figured that out, but figured Drest wouldn't know that from his location at the start of his action. Plan on switching to his silver dagger next round.Plus my crappy roll misses anyways.

Taibhse

Dismayed that Belloc didn't join him in moving to join the others, he will call for the party to join him in attacking the pig man.

Attack [1d20+1]=12+1=13 Damage [1d6+1]=1+1=2

Chill Touch Damage: [1d4]=2

Cyril looks off to the left as if at a companion that is not actually standing there and says, "Azathoth, you fickle beast..." He then looks at the rest of his companions and raising his voice to be heard says, "I believe retreat is in order.

Kain, Ceana - you will not understand this but that porcine threat is attempting to eat us. I do not believe we have the strength to withstand it. We have bit off more than we can chew with this delve and must come to terms with this quickly before that thing bites off quite a bit more of us!"


Cyril begins making his way quickly up the path.
