Actions for Round 3?

[Rex]

Egon

Egon attacks the ogre again.

Magic Battle Axe [1d20+2]=9+2=11 to hit [1d8+4]=6+4=10 damage

The Ogre is -4 to hit me.

[Cwreando]

Trist and Jivet

Trist continues to fire at the ogre. She'll switch to a new target coordinating with the others so they only attack one at a time.





"Alright folks, One at a time ey? If the beast we are attacking falls then we target the next closest one and focus on that one until it drops and so on. Sound about right?"

Trist has Jivet stay close for safety.

"Stay with me young lady."

4 sheaf arrows removed for last round and this round.

[tristenc]

Reywald slings a stone (which probably sails far over even the Ogre's head)

[gurusql]

Del

Del will slit the throat of one of the unconscious ogres with her short sword, while singing a prayer to Eilistraee,

"To aid the weak, with hearts so kind,
A steady hand, a guide to find,
Through storm and shadow, we stand tall,
Lifting them up, when shadows call.

The strong endure, with might and grace,
Their courage shows, they set the pace,
In battles fierce, they never yield,
Their strength will forge a righteous field.

The long they stand, through years untold,
With patience, wisdom, hearts so bold,
In trials deep, they never break,
For justice's light, they will partake.

Together we fight, through day and night,
Against the dark, we bring the light,
The weak, the strong, the long, they slay,
For goodness reigns, and evil's kept at bay."

[Edeldhur]

Tellurion

The Fighter continues his attacks, with another 1-2 combination.

Dagger slice (THAC0 15)! [1d20+1]=13+1=14 Damage [1d3+4]=3+4=7

Mace [1d20+1]=11+1=12; damage vs. S/M = [1d6+2]=5+2=7 damage vs. L =[1d6+1]=4+1=5

[GreyWolfVT]

Fast tracked 3rd round The party overwhelms the one not incapacitated ogre dropping him to the ground.
Initiative NPCs [1d10]=4 PCs [1d10]=3 PC's still act first.

Now that leaves what do you do to the other ogre's under the color spray's effects? Kill them all and leave one to question or just simply kill the rest?

[tristenc]

Reywald mentions to the others, They won't be out long. Time is of the essence.

[Edeldhur]

Tellurion

"Help me tie and gag one, or dispatching the others" - Tellurion produced a rope - "Better use two or three ropes though"

Agreed. Tie and gag one for interrogation, kill the rest.

[tristenc]

Reywald will assist with the tying
(He has the Rope Use NWP)

[Rex]

Egon

Egon gets to work killing the others.

[gurusql]

Del

Del will continue to help Egon, repeating her prayer over each.

[BaltoBruiser]

Kravoud

Tellurion, do you need me to lay my hands upon you and channel my healing powers?

Otherwise, he will assist Tellurion with tying up the captive ogre.

[Edeldhur]

Tellurion

"I should be ok Kravoud - looking at the size of these beasts, it could have been much worse" - Tellurion nodded with a smile.

Don't remember exactly how Lay on Hands works in 2e - is it you can heal 2hp/level? Tellurion is at 17/22hp, so that should be ok for now I think. Or you can just 'blip' me for 2hp?

[BaltoBruiser]

I was going to cast Cure Light Wounds which restores 1d8 of HP. But if you are good, I will save it.
