The Dracolich: Take 2 - Round 1

Post by ManWithDoor » Fri Jun 09, 2017 9:21 pm

Ovind rushes towards Egbert, trying to get close enough to heal him, keeping the Paladin in the fight.
Double Move towards Egbert. If I can get within 30', use a Mythic Point to cast 'Heal' on him (can cast it at a range of 30' because of Mythic Abilities). If I can't, instead cast 'Chains of Light' on the Dragon (SR No, Reflex DC 25). I know Dragons are immune to Paralysis, but if nothing else the spell is about holding him in place, so at least he couldn't move around, or teleport.

Post by Vardaen » Tue Jun 13, 2017 4:32 pm

Round 1 Lehros 24, Egbert 23, DracoLich 19, Ovind 13, Ronk 13, Saeldur 5
Round 2 Lehros 24, Egbert 23, DracoLich 19, Ovind 13, Ronk 13, Saeldur 5
Ronk charges forward howling in a rage as he races forward up to the feet of the things. Ovind charges forwward also, and with mythic timing she casts a healing spell on Egbert that removes all the wounds and suffering he had. He's refreshed and ready. Saeldur, no more hastes left, goes the other way. He flies forward and up and speaks the Haste spell in reverse, and causes the Dracolich to slow down, it staggers and moves a much slower pace now!

Lehros and Egbert...
Ronk - Run/Rage
Ovind, Double Move, Mythic Point Amxz Init: Heal on Egbert: +130Hps
Saeldur: Fly, Slow on Lich: SR: CLC: 37 vs 32 Success: SLOWED

Egbert falters as the dracolich hits him again and again. So this is it, he thinks as he feels ribs breaking and skin tearing. He takes a deep breath. I won't give up! Must keep on fighting. Wearily, he flies to a vertical position and turns to face his opponent again, teeth clenched grimly in defiance. Then he sees Ronk run to his side. A feeling of happiness fills the warrior of Lugus when he spots his sibling. He nods grimly to Ronk, two warriors acknowledging: "Now it counts!" A second later, he feels a surge of power going through him, energizing him from head to toe, his wounds are healed. He glances back at Ovind and nods to her in thanks.

"For LUGUS!!!"He flies up a bit and swoops over the Dragon's neck toward his back, then, he slashes at the Dragon, raises the Godslayer piece again, and attempts to plunge it deep into the monster's spine.

Move: (speed 40) 6x east. (up and down as needed)

(Shield and Godlsayer Piece Readied)

Standard: Vital attack on Dracolich with Godslayer (vital attack, power attack, "buffs", smiting, flanking with Ronk?, flat footed (Titan's Bane Feat)...
Flames of Entanglement (still active), +39 (13x3) damage for first successful attack with smite +Vital Strike. + Righteous Vigor (bonus for each sucessful attack + hit points).

Free: use MP (Amazing Initiative) for another Standard action: (sheet updated)
Standard (from Amazing Initiative): Attack again, as above.

Round 2 Lehros 24, Egbert 23, DracoLich 19, Ovind 13, Ronk 13, Saeldur 5

Eilandor combat rule
Lehros races forward, arrow on his string of his bow and he fires it into the eye socket of the draco lich. The arrow vanishes inside the bony eye socket striking the inside of the skull doing it some damage from the impact on that strange magical glow coming from its head.

Its Egbert however that is going to do the most harm to this foe. He sweep through it wing space and down to its spine flanking with Ronk. With a slash of Godslayer he shatters one of the vertebrae on its back. The whole beast shudder and shakes from the impact of the relic blade. He then suddenly does it again, and a second bone is turned to pieces. If not for the fact that this was some necromantic horror likely it would be destroyed by now!

Moving slowly the dragon twitst and steps just enough to put its mouth a few feet from Egbert. It opens its mouth and Egbert is engulfed in a lighting storm of electricity. He's badly burned, electrocuted, and otherwise harmed by having the DracoLight breath on him point blank! Yet he survives it.

Ovind, Ronk and Saeldur...
Lehros: Move, Point Blank: Shoot SA: 37 Hit for 11 + 42 = 53 Dmg
Egbert: Fly [AoO: titan's bane no att ], Vital Attack, PA, Smite, Flank, titan's Bane: 43 Hit for 156 (Righteous Vigo +1 Att, + 8 Temp HPs, MP for 2nd Standard Attack: 48 Hit for 159 Dmg
DracoLich: 5ft, Breath on Egbert: Ref Save: 31 FAIL: 105 Electrical! (8 temp hps removed first)

I think I got it all

Ronk continues his run forward with his great obsidian axe lifted high above his head. Knowing that he might not do much damage to the dragolich, doesn't mean the barbarian is holding back in his axe swings. Hoping to at least distract the beast, so Egbert might use the magical weapon against it, he continues to chop and hack at the monstrous creature.

Saledur holds nothing back. Keeping as much out of the way as he can from the creature's terrible breath attack, he casts the most powerful fire spell he knows - an immense ball of fire that explodes on the far side of the massive dracolich.

"Stay strong!" he calls out. "We can defeat this creature if we all work together.
Move: NW x4
Standard: Cast Delayed Blast Fireball (14d6 fire, DC 25 Dex save for half). Aim ir for the back of the dracolich so it doesn't hurt the CoK.

Round 2 Lehros 24, Egbert 23, DracoLich 19, Ovind 13, Ronk 13, Saeldur 5
Ronk lays into the dragon as he leaps forward a few feet. His axe shatters the ankle of the great undead beast with his first blow. A cloud of bone dust and shards falls around Ronk as he swings a few more times not really making impact with the other strokes.

Saeldur calls out and fires off a tiny glowing orb. It flies into the back of the dracolich through its bony body and then WHAOOOSH! It explodes in a great big ball of flame that burns the back half of the monster to a crisp.

Between Egbert, Lehros, Ronk and Saeldur the structure of the dragon's body can't take it any more and it collapses once more onto the paved road totally inert -- for now.
Ronk: 5ft, Rage, Full Power Attack: "20" (Crit:46) Critical Hit for 41 Dmg , 28 Miss, 34 Miss
Saeldur: Delayed Blast Fireball: SR: CLC: 37 Success, Ref Save 17 Fail: 48 Dmg = DEAD

"Quick," Saeldur says, "Strike it with the sword! End its existence, if we can!"

"Come on, back on your feet! Keep it up!" Ovind stays within range, healing Egbert again. "If the Godslayer can't keep it down, nothing can."
"Heal" on Egbert again.

Ovind reaches out and floods Egbert's body with so much divine light that he is once again feeling fully healed and ready to fight.

Saeldur shouts out an order to strike the 'dead' dracolich...
Ovind Heal Egbert +130 HPs
