[Edeldhur]

Telurion

Some questions - My second dagger should hit AC4, after the penalty of throwing into melee. So that should be a hit, right? Also, I did not roll a 1 this round, so the dignity/pride hurt is from the previous round?

TBH you fell so getting up and throwing 1 dagger is about all I should have allowed at the most. Generally if you fall the next round is spent on getting back up. So i hope it was fair to say i technically should only take the first throw not both. But I really don't want to be a rules lawyer here.

All good from my end - I never really realized I had fell down. I saw this:

Tellurion attempts to throw a dagger at the alfa-gator falls and drops the dagger 3 inches from himself.

But missed this.

Friends: Tellurion dignity and/or pride hurt fallen 1 round to get back up and pick up dropped weapon. Egon 5 dmg from a tail whip.

So fair enough!

[Edeldhur]

Tellurion

Having recomposed himself, Tellurion throws two daggers at the croc thing!

+1 Dagger Throw (THAC0 is 13) : [1d20-1]=10-1=9 Damage (vs Medium) [1d4+4]=2+4=6
Dagger Throw (THAC0 is 14) : [1d20-1]=8-1=7 Damage (vs Medium) [1d4+4]=3+4=7

[Darklin2]

Grimnar draws and moves forward with his magical Chaos Blade, attacking sword and shield style.


[1d20+5]=3+5=8 Chaos Blade AC 10

[2d4+9]=3+9=12 Chaos Blade Damage

[1d20+5]=5+5=10 Chaos Blade AC 8

[2d4+9]=4+9=13 Chaos Blade Damage

[Cwreando]

Trist and Jivet

Trist takes another swing at the beast. "Keep after it folks. It's got some tough hide."

-----------------------------------
As Bitey dies his form changes to that of a human male a little over 6 feet tall roughly 240 lbs muscular build even not as a lycanthrope he would have been a formidable warrior by the looks of him. He is wearing ragged clothing and what appears to be a kilt, he also has some sort of bag like thing on his back that has some pipes coming out of it, the dwarves and anyone musically inclined thinks it is a musical instrument called bagpipes. Other than that the man has a belt pouch and a small satchel handing from his neck that is about at mid chest.

Actions?

[gurusql]

Delsenora

"Being a flute and lute player, I love a good bag-pipe."

Delsenora searches the body for loot.

[GreyWolfVT]

inside of the belt pouch you find 8 gold pieces 16 silver pieces and a family sigil presumably of the fellow that was the werealligator. In the pouch handing from his neck you find a container of powder you don't recognize what this powder is at the moment from mere looks it could be multiple types of powder. Beyond that you find nothing aside from a bite scar on the man's thigh.

[tristenc]

Reywald ends the fire spell once it is clear the beast is dead. Ghastly creature... Hopefully he was the solitary sort..

[shaidar]

Weston

Weston looks around at his companions "Was anyone seriously injured? Bitten?"

[GreyWolfVT]

Fortunately nobody was bitten in the battle the only damage dealt was from a tail whip/slam from the weregator.

[gurusql]

Delsenora

"Given that there are 8 of us, that sounds like easy math of 1 gp and 2 sp per person. I will carry the powder till we can Detect Magic, I suggest some else carry the family sigil for the same reason."

Noted on sheet.

[GreyWolfVT]

While gathering the loot you notice the clothing on the defeated man is oddly well preserved with no idea how long he has been in the lycan state you don't know if they are new or perhaps magically protected.
1 Tunic, 1 Kilt, 1 Belt, 1 set of boots, 1 small belt pouch, & 1 pouch with leather tie (for wearing around the neck).

math was intentional didn't feel like rolling for treasure so i made it easy.

[shaidar]

Weston

The priest is intrigued and utters "Shazbot!"

[Edeldhur]

Tellurion

What is Shazbot?

"Should we press onward?"

[tristenc]

Yes, and quickly lest we find allies of... that. Reywald mutters

[GreyWolfVT]

Shouting the activating magical word of one of his magic items Weston sees pretty colors, indicating that magic is indeed detected on the clothing, looking at the other items he notes the pouch of powder is also radiating a minor aura of magic.

[shaidar]

Weston

The priest smiles "The clothes are indeed enchanted in some form..." he points at each one in turn "... It looks like the powder is too."

Does the enchantment colours on the clothing 'match'? Part of the same spell, or just a similar type?

[GreyWolfVT]

The aura color matches on each article of clothing but the powder is a different color entirely.

[Rex]

Egon

"Interesting, magic clothing. We should see if it magically adjusts its size to fit everyone."

Egon is at 22 of 30hp.
