Book 1: Chapter 3 - In the Crow's Nest

Eberron is a world of pulp noir where swashbuckling and intrigue run rampant. The Last War is over, the war to end all wars, but many say the fighting has simply shifted from the battlefield to the shadows.

In the wake of a long and terrible war, a world struggles to find its destiny. Will it descend once more into brutal conflict and end in spectacular annihilation, or will the world emerge at last into a new era of peace and prosperity? One group of heroes hopes to make Eberron a better place. The Grey Company, formed by a collection of heroes recruits new members to their growing ranks -- you among them.

"CHAAAAAARGE!!!!" The halfling yells as Shakti runs forward. Helion lowers his lance and aims it at the woman in front of him.
HELION and SHAKTI:
Charge attack on Tower Girl 1, Helion will attack with his lance and Shakti will claw her. As a free action, Helion will drop the lance after the attack.

Round 1 Helion 23, Tower Girl's 19, Oloven 19, Werz 15, Fletcher 8,
Helion charges, atop the back of Shakti he charges into the chamber and is shot at three times for his troubles. He manages to duck or out run three crossbow bolts that fly at him atop the saddle. The shots are distracting however and his lance slams into the flipped over table two of the girls are using for cover. Shakti however reaches over the top of the barricade and bites the shoulder of one of the girls just gazing her.

Oloven, Werz and Fletcher...
Helion/Shakti Charge +2 [Readied Attacks: 3 Crossbow Shots: 8 Miss, 12 Miss, 17 Miss], Lance (Cover +4): 19 Miss
Shakti Claw: Charge +2: 24 Hit for 4

Fletcher begins to press forward, great sword at the ready. He now sees the table that Helion has crashed into and makes a move to the side. From high above, the warforged brings his blade down at one of the girls using the table for cover.

Standard: Att #1 with great sword
Number Two: "You are number six."
Number Six: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

Map is really hard to read. Begin shifting. I'll try and move towards 1 and attack with a single claw as I don't think I can charge as it's no straight line.
Werz surges forward his apppearance all of a sudden more bestial, more feline and lashes out against a bilge rat with his sharp claws.

Diplomacy Fails: Round 2

Post by Vardaen » Tue Jun 24, 2014 11:25 pm

Round 1 Helion 23, Tower Girl's 19, Oloven 19, Werz 15, Fletcher 8,

Round 2 Helion 23, Tower Girl's 19, Oloven 19, Werz 15, Fletcher 8,
Oloven moves forward, shield up, slowly and defensively. He provides a hard target to hit.

While at the same time Werz charges forward, shifting to appear more beastial, he lashes out over the barricade and rips his claws across the woman's throat nearly finishing her off.

Its Fletcher that get's the kill however. He comes in and around the others, and chops the woman in half longwise from the top of her head to between her legs. Her two halfs fall to opposite sides in a disgusting display of combat prowess from the Warforged.

Helion and Shakti...
Oloven: Move, Total Defense
Werz: Shift, Move, Attack 31 (Cover +4): 24 Hit for 9
Fletcher: Move, Attack #1 "19" (Crit: 24) Critical Hit for 35! (1 from max!) DEAD
Yeah sorry about the map, I have to find a better version of this dunegon

Helion uses his shield and sword to protect Shakti while Shakti tries to bite and claw the girl in front of them. And while doing so Helion addresses the girl far on his left, "You should consider to surrender".
HELION

Round 2 Helion 23, Tower Girl's 19, Oloven 19, Werz 15, Fletcher 8,
Helion holds his shield at the ready to defend Shakti as the Dino reaches over the barricade and claws the Tower Girl there once. The strike is light, but it opens a wound down her side nonetheless.

The Tower Girl then tumbles backwards and takes off down the hall away from the fight taking Helion's advice. The other girl on the eastern flank rapidly reloads her crossbow, and fires into the air just over Helion's head. She smiles with a shrug and then steps back a few paces.

Oloven, Werz and Fletcher...
Helion: Aid Another +4 AC on Shakti, Shakti Full Attack #2 9Cover +4) 21 Hit for 4 Dmg, 13, "1" (Fumble Threat:20) Normal Miss
Girl #2: Withdraw
Gril #3: Rapid Reload, Shoot Helion: 18 Miss, 5ft Step

Oloven watches the bolt as it shatters on the far wall. He then takes a few steps toward the tower girl, "Through the power of Aureon, I command you tho Fall!"
Oloven's voice booms through the room and corridors.
Move east x4, use Command on remaining tower girl to go prone.

Number Two: "You are number six."
Number Six: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
