The city of Westcrown is dying. Since being stripped of its station as the capital of Cheliax, the wealth and prestige of the city has gradually slipped away, leaving the desperate people to fend for themselves in a city beset by criminals, a corrupt nobility, and a shadowy curse. Can you fight back against champions of both the law and the criminal world?
This is a Pathfinder Adventure Path run by the GM arkahm.
Round 2 Bold has gone this round. Kyle: 19
Viraj: 18.9
Fellan: 18.5
Shanwen: 18.1
Ralen: 16
Hellknights: 10
Ralen comes up, just passing Viraj. He points his finger and again a bluish white streak erupts from it. It strikes the unwitting fool in the chest yet again. Seeming to have had enough of this, he clambers down the back of the carriage and retreats as fast as possible away from the overwhelming attack. The fear instilled Hellknight turns to flee, also seeing a lost situation, leaving an opening for Fellan and Kyle to attack. Turning his back to Fellan the man runs square into the swinging gut shot of Kyles Sickle. As the point makes it's point, the unwary Hellknight receives a spiked ball to the side of the head, crushing his skull between the side of the carriage and the heavy metal. The Hellknight's body falls to the ground with his head a bloody pulp.
The piloting Hellknight, struggling to maintain control of the surprised horses manages to calm them and picks up a crossbow from beside his seat. The Hellknights from the other side of the carriage drop down from the running boards seeking the best place to attack. One swings around the rear, while the other makes for the front. The one to the rear see's an attack on Kyle and takes it, missing miserably. The other, around the front, takes aim with a crossbow at Viraj. The crossbow bolt zings through the air to land beyond in the brush behind the monk. The last cornered Hellknight, rejuvenated at the approach of his comrade from the rear, attacks into Kyle. The swing goes wide, as Kyle dodges aside.

Fellan doesn't mention that the group said they might not kill every Hellknight they encountered. He personally is prepaired to slaughter them all. With Kyle striking out at the one before him, the former Inquisitor joins the fray. His morningstar already bloody from smashing in the head of the first foe, he follows that swing up with an uppercutting strike at the lower jaw of the same foe Kyle attacks. "Someone get that fleeing bastard over there."
Growling he strikes.
Attack HK2, if its dead some how after Kyle attacks it, then 5ft SE and attack HK4 instead.

After the brutal death of the Hellnight from Fellan's attack, Kyle switches targets to the other one from the side of the Carriage. He swings his sickle but the Hellknight is ready to react. Kyle swings for a killing blow to the neck but the Hellknight, dodging an incoming attack from Fellan's swing of the morningstar, causes the sickle to only nick the skin of the man.
Viraj, on assessing the battle, reaches into his pouch to throw another barrage of Shurikens. A minor misstep though causes his hands to become entangled in the pouches straps causing him to be unable to launch the items.
Shanwen, now ready to attack, swings the Heavy bow around on its mount aiming to the source of the magical missiles. Firing off his shot, seemingly not accustomed to the bulky weapon, Ralen deftly dodges the missile and advances to assist Kyle and Fellan. Pulling his spear and jabbing out at the nearest Hellknight, he overextends his position jabbing the spear into the side of the wagon. Expecting to hit softer flesh, and not the hard side of the wagon, the spear falls to the ground next to him, thankfully still in one piece.
The Hellknights counter attack. The one from behind the wagon again fires off his crossbow. Changing targets he now aims towards the dwarven monk. After having to reload to quickly, the shot goes high above the monks head. Ralen however is not as lucky. The driver takes aim at the magic user, hitting him squarely in the shoulder. The hard pressed Hellknight moves away from the approach of the third approaching adversary. Swinging at Kyle, he is unable to connect with the tactical move he has made. The other man from the rear of wagon moves around Kyle swinging as he goes. The swing goes wide, though, and he gets nothing but a change of position.

Viraj: Full

Fellan snarls, "Fools, you will die for your blind adherance to the corruption of this city." He brings his weapon around in a high arc aimed at crushing yet another skull of the Hellknights. The request to spare these foes is clearly begin ignored by the former Inquisitor. "There is no mercy for those who do not repent. REPENT!"
Attack HK2.
If dead 5ft SE, otherwise 5ft E.

Kyle's Hellknight deftly dodges Kyle's attack. Not as miserable a fighter as first thought, you think to yourself. You take these thoughts to push yourself onward to hopefully not underestimate him.
Viraj decides it is about time to set into motion and so he moves slow and steady but fast enough to catch up with one of the frigthend Hellknights and kick him in the back.
