You may encounter adult conversations, concepts and material on this server. If you're under the age of consent, get out now. My arse is now officially covered... parents and watchdogs, take responsibility for your own damn kids, 'cos I sure as hell won't.
Enjoy the freedom of communication with the OpenRPG Veav I message board. There is no other OpenRPG Veav server. If you see one on the server list, it is somebody who probably violated rule one and got their ass banned. OpenRPG Veav I does not condone or support piracy or intellectual property theft.
This is a friendly server. I don't much care what you do, so long as you do it in a civilized manner. This means you can discuss anything you like and say anything you like, using whatever words you choose - so long as you aren't being an asshole.
Under consideration: VeavCon! Make your voice heard! Nothing's finalized, not even whether or not the event will take place; still, get your two cents in now just in case.

09:45 (1483) Valarian: greetings

09:45 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1483) Valarian...
09:45 (1460) Elendwyn: hi
09:46 (1483) Valarian: "Music and blasters and old jedi masters at the staaar waaaars, star wars cantina!!"
09:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: hehe
09:48 (1465) Artemorra|IdlingAsOnlyDemonsCan: Evenin' BRB shortly.
09:48 (1460) Elendwyn: as said in the game time thread, my time slot for this ends in a bit under 2 hours from now on...
09:48 (1483) Valarian: :(
09:49 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Alright
09:49 (1483) Valarian: You know what this means.... It means we must kill you...
09:50 (1460) Elendwyn: ah yes... If you can... Mwahahaha
09:51 (1484) arthurtuxedo: We might cut short of the full 3 hours anyway
09:51 ** (1483) Valarian nods **
09:52 (1483) Valarian: So, we are waiting on Heath, and who else?
09:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: And with some people expressing time zone confusion (even though I repeatedly told everyone to reconcile their time with mine), I have to wonder how many more will actually show today
09:52 (1483) Valarian: damn time zones....
09:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Heath, CorSec, Pete, Shapless_Caren, and G.O.G.M.
09:53 (1483) Valarian: When I take over the world, we will not have time zones. Everything will be done in Earth Standard TIme
09:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: And no fucking Daylight Savings Time, especially. I hate that shit
09:53 (1492) Bill (enter): 09:53
09:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Greetings!
09:54 (1483) Valarian: indeed
09:54 (1492) Bill: hello
09:54 (1483) Valarian: it must be done away with as well
09:54 (1483) Valarian: Hello Bill
09:54 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1492) Bill...
09:54 ** (1483) Valarian uses cajun voice **
09:54 (1483) Valarian: "You gonna die, twice"
09:55 (1492) Bill: Die? Do i have to?
09:55 (1483) Valarian: yes
09:55 (1492) Bill: Aw.
09:55 (1460) Elendwyn: we all do... :D
09:56 (1492) Bill: You first, then
09:56 (1460) Elendwyn: em... well... uhm...
09:56 ** (1492) Bill backs away slowly **
09:56 ** (1484) arthurtuxedo sings "I be a baaad boy, I be a baaaaad boy, I do the March of the Black Queen!" **

09:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Who can name the band and the album on that one?
09:57 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1497) gerard_paloma...
09:58 (1497) gerard_paloma: I missed it, what is it? I wanna play
09:58 (1498) Mxyz (enter): 09:58
09:58 (1498) Wiggins: 'ello, 'ello.
09:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: I was seeing if anyone knew who sung the song "March of the Black Queen" and what album.
09:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Heya
09:58 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1498) Wiggins...

09:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Hello
09:59 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1499) G.O.G.M....
09:59 (1498) Wiggins: Why's everything gotta be black with you?
09:59 (1499) G.O.G.M.: greetings
09:59 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The band was Queen, the album was Queen II. C'mon, people!
10:00 ** (1498) Wiggins remembers to turn on some music. **
10:00 (1483) Valarian: Greetings to all those who came in.
10:00 (1460) Elendwyn: greetings n stuff
10:00 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Looks like we have everyone who created a character. We're missing Pete, but he doesn't have a character sheet. If he still wants to play, his character can show up later as a "reinforcement".
10:00 (1492) Gustav: Sorry, I only have Queen's Greatest hits vol1 &2
10:01 (1483) Valarian: Your doom has been foretold, yours is the path to destruction and the time for your ending is nigh etc etc etc so on and so forth
10:01 (1484) arthurtuxedo: OK, here we go.
10:01 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Once we start, put all out-of-character chatter in parentheses, like so)
10:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Anything that's not in parentheses is for things your character says or does
10:02 (1483) Valarian: (we sometimes MST3K ourselves you see....)
10:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: * * * Campaign Start * * *
10:02 (1498) Wiggins: (sometimes?)
10:02 (1492) Gustav: (Cool)
10:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: * * * Session 1 Start * * *
10:03 (1460) Elendwyn: (and so it begins...)
10:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Two channelers, an undiscovered type of mage, have defended the agricultural village of Dawn's Crest from a bandit attack. Dawn's Crest is a sleepy village in Shadowdale. Aided by magic and telepathy, word spread quickly, and the Crown of Cormyr would very much like to speak to these channelers.
10:04 (1483) Valarian: (Or rather, boostrap us into service)
10:04 (1498) Wiggins: (Bootstrap's bootstrap!)
10:05 (1492) Gustav: (Oh, but of course. Were would we be without conscription? :P )
10:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Sent by the winds of a teleport spell, a hand-picked squad of Purple Dragons arrives in the town as suddenly as they were whisked away, to no small surprise from the townsfolk. The apprentices are still there, helping the townsfolk and recuperating from their own scratches and bruises. The Purple Dragons seem to be the first on the scene, and are standing about 10 meters away from the apprentices.
10:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Each person should now give a short description of his character)
10:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (We'll start with Lenny, then Valarian)
10:06 (1497) Lenny: (Oh, it's my turn? Ok.)
10:06 (1498) Wiggins: (n00b question: are they friendly?)
10:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You can just copy and paste the phsyical description field from your character sheet)
10:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You're one of them, so I'd say so ;) )
10:07 (1497) Lenny: Lenny is a young, naive wizard's apprentice. He has unwashed, dirty-blonde hair, a hook nose, a few pimples, and his glasses are repaired with tape. He wears a threadbare brown robe that's a size too small. He is of very slight build, and average height.
10:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Everyone else can type up their description now, I just want the two channelers to be the first ones to hit ENTER)
10:08 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Valarian's turn)
10:09 (1483) Valarian: (Valarian stands at about an average height, but has a very slight build. His clothes and glasses are in better condition than his companions, but they are obviously well-used. He has close cropped brown hair and leans heavily on a quarter staff, though he shows no apparant sign of injury after the battle.
10:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Okay, no everyone else can go in a big mob)
10:10 ** (1498) Wiggins smells the ionized air even on the far side of town. Quick to his feet and quicker to be curious, Wiggins steps out in the middle of the town and is immediately transfixed by a group of Purple Dragons. **
10:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (now rather)
10:10 (1492) Gustav: (Muscular young man with close cropped dark hair and a sparse beard. He's armoured in chain and is currently on the back of large and rather fracticious horse. Numerous weapons are in easy reach. However, none are actually in his hands, and his helmet is off.)
10:10 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn is at first sight a Drow, a shy over 6' in size, athletically built. Shock-white, neck long, hair, silver eyes and an very attractive face. He's clad in a light leather of very good quality.
10:10 (1465) Derick: One such Purple Dragon is a burly dark-featured fellow with the look of a terminally ill-humoured oik. That said, the quality of his clothes suggests that he's the kind of oik with the coin to back up his superiority complex - one might describe him as a brick in a silk stocking. A really arrogant brick. With an almost comically oversized sword, the fact that said sword is sheathed contrives to make it look no less huge. Perhaps a more adequate description would be a brick in a mailed glove, in a silk stocking.
10:10 (1499) G.O.G.M.: An Elven Female about 5'4 105 pounds. Oak hues hair and pale brown skin. She is wearing a pale blue peasant dress. She is considered a moderate elven beauty.
10:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You're also a Purple Dragon, Wiggins, or at least are with them.)
10:11 (1505) Shapeless Caren (enter): 10:11
10:11 (1460) Elendwyn: I might additionally mention his horse...
10:11 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1505) Shapeless Caren...
10:11 (1505) Shapeless Caren: Hello
10:12 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (We just started, Caren, everyone is describing his or her character. Please put out-of-character chatter in parentheses, like so)
10:12 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (ok.)
10:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You can just copy and paste the physical description cell from your character sheet, if you want)
10:15 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (You see a goblin, wearing breeches and a shirt. Her shirt and breeches hug her body tightly, revealing feminine curves. Her face is mild for a goblin's, and could be called pretty by most anything. Long black hair falls to waist, cascading down. A shortbow is strung across her back, with a quiver of arrows opposite it. You can not imagine why though, as this female goblin looks so sweet and innocent and harmless, that you would never imagine she could use a bow, much less the one she carries.)
10:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: After a few beats pass of the two groups simply staring at one another, it occurs to all that maybe someone should say or do something...
10:16 ** (1498) Wiggins , stands to his full height, which is far shorter than any of the others. Despite his dimunitive size he's no less serious - or armed - than the others. He looks around, his odd gold flecked eyes making note of the conditions. **
10:16 (1498) Wiggins: (redo, better?)
10:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Much)
10:16 (1492) Gustav: (Are these the droids we're looking for?)
10:16 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (What happened before I came in?)
10:17 ** (1497) Lenny tries to look intimidating. **
10:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The Purple Dragons showed up in front of the two apprentice channelers by teleportation)
10:17 ** (1497) Lenny fails miserably. **
10:17 (1483) Valarian: "Hold, Cormyrian's what is your business here? We have just been through a long and arduous ordeal and ask what you are doing so far north of your jurisdiction" Valarian says, as he mutters something under his breath.
10:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (My Star Wars geekiness prevents me from telling you that these *are*, in fact the droids you're looking for, so I'll just say nothing)
10:17 ** (1465) Derick seems inclined to say something, but then thinks better of it, mainly because from the looks of these two wizards, it'd be beneath his station to talk to them. He doesn't say anything to that effect, but looks at his compatriots as if expecting them to do something. **
10:18 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - El moves near gobliness
10:18 ** (1498) Wiggins realizes that whatever trouble occurred here has passed. He leans on his staff, a reluctant bemusement playing on his lips. **
10:18 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn looks at the other party and tries to assess them.
10:18 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - El gives all an appraising look
10:19 (1483) Valarian: "Well?"
10:19 ** (1492) Gustav says "Hello. Are you the casters who defended here?" **
10:19 (1483) Valarian: "Yes, I am Valarian Starfire and this is Lenny, might I have the pleasure of your name?"
10:20 ** (1497) Lenny waves. **
10:20 (1498) Wiggins: "I don't know why we were sent here. Seems they have it all under control," Wiggins says with as much humor as the situation warrants.
10:20 ** (1483) Valarian mutters something barely audible under his breath, something about sword slingers **
10:21 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - El draws still closer to the gobliness
10:21 (1505) Shapeless Caren: "Hello." Milla says to Quan-El.
10:21 ** (1465) Derick introduces himself with a combination of his first name, and a slew of ultimately forgettable names half of which seem to be embarassing if pronounced wrong (or rather, correctly) and he sidles over to Wiggins a bit, shooting him a fractious glare. **
10:21 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn carefully steps closer to the wizards, one might almost say sneak, and simply watches them.
10:21 (1492) Gustav: "I am Gustav. I and my companions have been sent to take you to the capital of Comyr"
10:22 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "Greetings, i am Quan - El"
10:22 ** (1492) Gustav ignores the sword slinger comment. **
10:22 (1492) Gustav: (Hey! I resemble that comment!)
10:23 (1497) Lenny: Lenny finds his voice, and squeaks up. "What? Why?"
10:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (This is about 4 hours after the bandit attack, by the way. Just in case anyone was wondering. It's now early afternoon)
10:23 (1483) Valarian (exit): 10:23
10:23 (1492) Gustav: (Come with us if you want to live!)
10:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Get used to that. It will happen several times this session. Alyrium's connection sucks)
10:24 (1498) Wiggins: Well, you see it's somewhat complicated. You use this new magic and the Crown wants to see it.
10:24 (1465) Derick: (Because there's about ten minutes before the entire church of Mystra turns up and pummels you, and we'd like to pick your brains before handing you over to them! XD )
10:24 (1497) Lenny: (Indeed. It sucks out loud.)
10:24 (1498) Wiggins: So, um. I guess it's not that complicated.
10:25 (1492) Gustav: "I'd imagine there would be others wanting you as well..."
10:25 (1505) Shapeless Caren: "What about the ones who do not use magic?"
10:26 (1460) Elendwyn: "Just convince them to come and be done with it..."
10:26 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - El looks around for injured beings
10:27 (1512) No Name (enter): 10:27
10:27 (1498) Wiggins: (woot)
10:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: No one seems to be injured, although there are a number of dead bodies.
10:28 (1512) No Name: "this is our home, under who's authority do you derive the mandate to take us? Cormyr has no power here"
10:28 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1512) No Name...
10:28 (1498) Wiggins: "So," Wiggins continues, "if you'd be so good as to grab what you think you'd be needing an' come with us."
10:28 ** (1465) Derick coughs a bit, glances at Elendwyn and frowns, "Well, yes, we'd like you to come with us. In that we're nice, and we'd rather you not end up falling prey to anyone who could be described as nasty. Word spreads, and there's plenty who want to learn more about your discovery. They would probably wish to do so painfully, for you, if neccessery." **
10:28 (1505) Shapeless Caren: While the larger beings were talking, Milla quite looks around for anything of use that the dead might be carrying. (Just looking.)
10:28 ** (1492) Gustav says quietly to Elendwyn "And how am I supposed to do that?" **
10:29 (1498) Wiggins: "No doubt, you might be right. But if Cormyr has no power here, that means this place is ripe for the takin', if you gather my meaning. Better the devil you know, hey?"
10:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: It's been 4 hours since the fight, so the bandit bodies have already been stripped clean.
10:29 (1497) Lenny: "I guess that does make sense," he trails off, deferring judgement to Valarian.
10:30 (1465) Derick: "Which is why we're here, supposedly. To avoid letting you fall into the hands of anyone worse than us," he doesn't mention that he interprets their orders as including, 'kill the apprentices if they're about to be captured.' Not a crowd pleaser that one.
10:30 (1498) Wiggins: (Can I pet the rabbits, George? Can I?)
10:30 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn leans toward Gustav. "Just think of something. I'm sure it'll work..."
10:30 (1484) arthurtuxedo: About 20 meters away, a humming sound starts to build strength, and there are 9 motes of light starting to build. The two channelers, having just seen this exact same effect, recognize it as incoming teleporters)
10:31 (1465) Derick: (Oooh, terminator line time... >.>)
10:31 (1460) Elendwyn: "Oh joy," Elendwyn mutters
10:31 (1498) Wiggins: I suggest making a decision right quick.
10:31 (1505) Shapeless Caren: Milla looks around for a place to duck, if they are hostile.
10:31 (1492) Gustav: "Stand Clear!"
10:31 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - El draws bow and looks for cover
10:31 (1512) Valarian: The wizard chuckles at the threats. "I have studied the history of this area.. Shadowdale has never been taken. Still, I suppose it is better to be escorted by you, than have to defend ourselves alone from... necromancers or somesuch"
10:31 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn tries to get away, in some safe spot away from the lights
10:31 ** (1492) Gustav wheels the horse to face the effects, and helmets up **
10:32 (1505) Shapeless Caren: Milla draws her bow.
10:32 (1465) Derick: (Humm. Are we mounted presently?)
10:32 (1512) Valarian: Valarian turns to face the teleporters, his hands ready to unleash powerful magics
10:32 ** (1492) Gustav gets his his shield and mace as well **
10:32 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Quan - el backs toward cover while drawing arrow
10:32 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn gets his bow as soon as he found some safe spot
10:33 (1505) Shapeless Caren: Milla will duck behind whatever cover is avaliable, and knock her bow.
10:33 ** (1498) Wiggins draws his crossbow, aiming at one of the lights waiting for it to form a person, or thing, being ready for whether it be friend or foe. **
10:33 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I forgot about miniatures. Everyone find a picture on the net that's a good representation of your character, copy and paste it into the location bar, and hit "add miniature")
10:34 (1460) Elendwyn: (umpf... "good representation"...
10:34 (1465) Derick: (Any particular size limits?)
10:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Google image search is usually the best way)
10:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (No size limits, you can resize)
10:36 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (How do you resize them?)
10:36 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Resize by right clicking and editing properties. Resize them so that the largest dimension is 50 pixels, using the auto-scaling)
10:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (They should end up about the same size as "Enemy 1"
10:37 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (Ok, done.)
10:38 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (efforting)
10:39 (1465) Derick: (I was tempted to hunt tfor something from Monty Python's Grail... Humm...)
10:40 (1492) Gustav (exit): 10:40
10:40 (1516) Bill (enter): 10:40
10:40 (1465) Derick: (Ack, apologies)
10:41 (1512) Valarian: ok, how do I resize these
10:42 (1465) Derick: (Right click on the mini, then go to properties, and leaving the scale locked, resize the largest axis to 50 pixies. Yes, that's a deliberate typo.)
10:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (When everyone's got their minis, I'll save the map and then start arranging it)
10:43 (1498) Wiggins: (good to go)
10:43 (1497) Lenny: (good to go here, Skip)
10:43 (1512) Valarian: (got it)
10:43 (1516) Gustav: (Up)
10:43 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (Im good)
10:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I count 7, who are we missing?)
10:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Looks like we're missing Quan-El)
10:44 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (efforting)
10:44 (1465) Derick: Still need a Milla and a Quan-el.
10:44 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (efforting)
10:44 (1497) Lenny: (Milla's there)
10:45 (1465) Derick: (Is she? *Hunts about*)
10:45 (1497) Lenny: (I suppose 867-5309 is Valarian)
10:45 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (Far right)
10:45 (1465) Derick: (Oh, aye, so she is.)
10:45 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (can you say dial-up? I knew you could)
10:46 (1465) Derick: (Yah, the mage doing the glowy-symbols routine's he...)
10:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, well I'll find one and you tell me whether it's good enough)
10:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Does that work?)
10:48 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (wow!!!)
10:48 (1465) Derick: (Humm. What's the link to the Quan-El pic? I didn't see it in full-size...)
10:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: http://www.lord-of-the-rings.org/fan_arts/archer.jpg
10:49 (1497) Lenny: (Alternatively, there's this one)
10:49 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Map is saved, now I'll start arranging it for the battle, no one but me should move miniatures right now)
10:49 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (is that where it's from?)
10:49 (1497) Lenny: (eh, looks like shit miniaturized, nm)
10:49 (1465) Derick: (Humm. Nifty. Very nifty.)
10:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (There's also this one)
10:50 (1498) Wiggins: (boing)
10:50 ** (1497) Lenny (starts moving minis around.) **
10:50 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (i like)
10:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Cool, let me save the map again)
10:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Ignore the spare icons in the south-east corner of the map)
10:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The teleporters arrive. A mage in a bright red robe, with a halberd-toting bodyguard looking menacing next to him. In front of them is a group of orc savages sporting crude battle axes and wearing thick hide armor. The orcs on either end of the line have large nets. They quickly get their bearings and the wizard shouts "There they are, get them. Kill anyone who interferes!" The orcs surge forward.
10:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 1
10:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Can we stop moving the icons, please?)
10:56 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (First part of any round is that everyone states their actions, then the actions go by order of iniative)
10:56 (1505) Shapeless Caren: (Are there penalties for shooting through an occupied square?) (If not, then;) Milla shoots at the mage with her bow, aiming at his temple.
10:57 (1460) Elendwyn: I would like to shoot orc4 with an arrow
10:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (As long as the person knows you're there and isn't in Hand to Hand combat, you won't hit them)
10:57 ** (1465) Derick will draw his sword, and (if possible, guess who's not memorised these rules!) head roughly south east, aiming to cut off the orcs. **
10:57 ** (1516) Gustav gets out of the way of anyone doing any shooting **
10:58 (1499) G.O.G.M.: I'm shooting the nearest net weilder
10:58 ** (1498) Wiggins lets a breath hiss through his teeth. He knew the mage would be the most trouble but chose not to focus on him. Instead he takes aim at one of the charging orcs and lets a bolt fly. **
10:58 (1516) Gustav: (Man on horseback= big blockade)
10:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Orcs 1 and 7 have nets)
10:58 (1499) G.O.G.M.: orc 1 then
10:58 (1465) Derick: (I'm assuming I'm mounted, too, ATM)
10:59 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (All shooters can either take a round to aim and fire next round or fire this round with less chance to hit)
10:59 (1460) Elendwyn: (I assume my horse to stay a bit away, out of harm's way)
10:59 (1499) G.O.G.M.: this round
10:59 (1460) Elendwyn: Elendwyn is aiming
10:59 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You can either be mounted or have dismounted, your choice)
10:59 (1505) Shapeless Caren: ( I have the instant aim ability.)
11:00 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Anyone with instant aim can go this round with no penalty)
11:00 (1516) Gustav: (I most definately am mounted. Said so in the description, I did.)
11:03 ** (1497) Lenny begins casting a spell. (Armor, 12 strands, 2 round casting time) **
11:05 ** (1512) Valarian starts moving his hands in an intricate pattern, and his lips intone words of power. Energy gathers arouns his fingertips and he waits for the orcs to get in range. Hie targets a spell at the red robed wizard, one which would hopefully freeze him (8 points of damage.... 8 strands). He had to cast it quickly however, and invested extra energy in getting it done in a couple seconds (at the end of this round, 3 strands +3 for the projectile) and be especially accurate (+4 bonus 2 strands)). [1d10+14] -> [7,14] = (21) (for the spell) [1d120+19] -> [22,19] = (41) (for the attack role) **
11:06 (1512) Valarian: [1d10+14] -> [1,14] = (15) for the spell [1d10+19] -> [9,19] = (28) for the attack
11:06 (1512) Valarian: (son of a bitch)
11:09 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, so 8 strands. +3 for 1 round casting time. +2 strands for +4 acc. With multipliers, that's 16 strands)
11:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla, Quan-El are firing arrows this round.
11:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Quan-El has the higher iniative, and goes first.
11:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Roll 1d10 + your AT, which is 15)
11:10 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [9] = (9)
11:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Okay, good enough. So that's a roll of 24)
11:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Who were you targeting?)
11:11 (1499) G.O.G.M.: orc1
11:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The scale we're using here is that 1 square = 5 meters, btw.)
11:12 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (So 25 meters distance, x5 because it's a snap shot = 125 meters effective distance)
11:12 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (understood)
11:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That's +8 difficulty. I don't belive there are any other modifiers)
11:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [15 + 8] -> 23
11:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (24 is more than 23, so that's a hit. You didn't call a shot, so we roll randomly)
11:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Roll 1d10 for general location)
11:14 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [5] = (5)
11:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Abdomen
11:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Roll 1d10 for specific location)
11:14 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [6] = (6)
11:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Intenstine
11:14 (1512) Valarian: (ouch, even if he survives, infection alert)
11:15 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (just drop the net)
11:15 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Quan-El does 10 damage with her bow, plus 2 penetration. The orc is wearing armor with more than 2 resistance, so this is like having 2 extra damage. 12 damage - 6 resistance = 6 damage.
11:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The Orc has 12 HP, which means it did exactly 50% of his HP. That makes him Wounded (-2 to all rolls, cannot sprint).
11:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (He is also bleeding internally, but it's not really enough to make a difference in the span of this combat, so we'll just ignore the bleeding)
11:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Now it's Milla's turn.
11:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Difficulty for Milla is only [15 + 2] -> 17 because she aimed.
11:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Roll 1d10 + your AT, which is 18
11:18 (1505) Milla Rell: (And I have a +5 to hit for called shtots due to expert precision.)
11:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yes, but you didn't call a shot)
11:18 (1505) Milla Rell: (Temple) [1d10] -> [4] = (4)
11:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Looks like I neglected to include that area on the chart. That's an oversight. Functionally it's pretty much the same as throat, though, so we'll treat it the same)
11:21 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The penalty for targeting the temple is 13, but reduced to 8 because of Milla's Expert Precision. 17 Difficulty + 8 = 25 DF)
11:21 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (4 + 18 = attack roll of 22, not quite high enough)
11:21 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla's arrow whooshes by the orc's head, missing by an inch.
11:22 (1498) Wiggins: (who am next?)
11:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The wizard is casting.
11:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The orcs sprint forward)
11:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Willpower check for the wounded orc: [1d10 + 5 - 5] -> [6,5,-5] = (6)
11:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The wounded orc shakes off the injury and runs forward, slower than the others.
11:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (At a sprint, you can move forward one square. Anyone who has not fired this round can move)
11:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Or who is not aiming)
11:24 (1460) Elendwyn: (Just to announce... but I really have to go in a few minutes... I was hoping we'd be further along by then... But I still want to do ymy shot...)
11:25 (1465) Derick: (And horses can move Humm, about three squares?)
11:25 (1512) Valarian: (someone could probably take over your character in the combat Dahak)
11:26 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (3 squares, yes)
11:26 (1512) Valarian: (CAVALRY CHARGE!!)
11:26 (1465) Derick: (Diagonally? If so, I'll be making for Orc7 *cringes*)
11:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That would be doable)
11:27 (1498) Wiggins: (I was shooting this round.)
11:27 (1465) Derick: (Like so?)
11:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Snap shot?)
11:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Just like that, yes)
11:28 (1465) Derick: (*waits to get stabbed in the head by orc6's spear*)
11:28 (1497) Lenny: (stabbity stab)
11:28 (1498) Wiggins: (yes, snap shot)
11:28 (1460) Elendwyn: (wants to shoot... :P)
11:28 (1516) Gustav: (I'd like to go round their flank, diagonally)
11:28 (1516) Gustav: (Left and down.)
11:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, if you're both shooting, Elendwyn goes first. It's 1d10 + your AT)
11:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (And name your target when you throw the roll)
11:29 (1460) Elendwyn: [1d10+16] -> [2,16] = (18)
11:29 (1460) Elendwyn: as mentioned before, it's orc4
11:30 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [15 + 8] -> 23. Elendwyn's arrow whooshes by the 4th orc's head and embeds itself into the ground.
11:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Wiggin's turn)
11:31 (1498) Wiggins: (which orcs were carrying nets)
11:31 (1498) Wiggins: (?)
11:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1 and 7)
11:31 (1465) Derick: (1 and 7)
11:32 (1460) Elendwyn: (hooray... Ok, I'm off, sadly. Hate real life interferences... If someone please takes the character over for this session, I'd be pleased :) )
11:32 (1498) Wiggins: Orc7 [1d10+16] -> [5,16] = (21)
11:32 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Cool, see you next time)
11:32 (1497) Lenny: (later man)
11:32 (1460) Elendwyn: (yupp. I lok forward to it... )
11:32 (1460) Elendwyn: Disconnecting from server...
11:32 (1460) Elendwyn (exit): 11:32
11:32 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (merry part)
11:32 (1512) Valarian: (Aufwiedersehen)
11:32 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [15 + 8] -> 23
11:33 (1516) Gustav: (Too slow...)
11:33 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Actually, wait...)
11:33 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [15 + 12] -> 27 (Not that it matters)
11:34 (1498) Wiggins: (okay, went from whizzing by his head to whizzing way over his head)
11:34 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Wiggins' bolt flies from his crossobw and viciously annihilates a clump of dirt.
11:34 (1498) Wiggins: (Damn dirty dirt! Take that!)
11:34 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (What are you attacking with, Derick?)
11:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Nevermind, you just have the greatsword. It's Gustav that has the lance)
11:35 (1465) Derick: (If possible, either attacking 7 with the sword, or run him down with the horsey. The bow's slung, and probably not even strung.)
11:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick rides at the Orc, swinging his greatsword. (1d10 + your AT)
11:36 (1516) Gustav: (and the mace. and the sword. and the emergancy knife)
11:36 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = Orc's HtH AT + 5 = [9 + 5] -> 14
11:36 (1465) Derick: I think it's: [1d10+16] -> [6,16] = (22)
11:36 (1498) Wiggins: (and the subnuclear sonic grenade with uv component to handle vampires)
11:36 (1465) Derick: (reading off the weapon AT column there...)
11:36 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for general roll)
11:36 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That's correct)
11:37 (1465) Derick: (Soo... What results does that have, or do I need to roll for damage now or some such?)
11:37 (1516) Gustav: (I would've if I could've taken one of those :P. Be prepared!)
11:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for general hit location)
11:38 (1465) Derick: Area of the body: [1d10] -> [7] = (7)
11:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Torso
11:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for specific location)
11:38 (1465) Derick: {I suspect if you want really complex rules, one might add a bias towards hitting upper body when one's mounted like that.)
11:38 (1465) Derick: [1d10] -> [1] = (1)
11:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: General Torso
11:39 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (True, that occured to me a few minutes ago. I'll think it over further later)
11:39 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc has resistance 6. Damage 14 - 6 = [14 - 6] -> 8 adjusted damage.
11:40 (1484) arthurtuxedo: That's not quite 80%, so this orc is Wounded.
11:40 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (What was Gustav doing this round?)
11:41 (1465) Derick: (I would suggest that gustav go for number six - then we can move on to five and four - now, but, he seems to want to go around to the west.)
11:41 (1516) Gustav: (Moving around the enemy flank. I think I can bash one on the way)
11:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Like so?)
11:42 (1516) Gustav: (yep. So its 2 instead?)
11:42 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Right. Your horse is slower than Derick's)
11:42 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (What weapon are you attacking Orc 2 with?)
11:42 (1516) Gustav: (Ok, called shot to the head. with mace.)
11:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: OK, DF = [9 + 5 + 4] -> 18 (Orc's HtH AT + 5 + called shot penalty)
11:44 (1516) Gustav: (lets see, d10+AT+precise shtrike?)
11:44 (1516) Gustav: [1d10+15+2] -> [6,15,2] = (23)
11:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Ah, didn't see the precise strike)
11:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d20 for specific location)
11:45 (1516) Gustav: [1d20] -> [5] = (5)
11:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Jaw
11:46 (1497) Lenny: (oh god)
11:46 (1512) Valarian: (armor doesnt even cover the jaw usually...)
11:46 (1516) Gustav: (He's not winning any beauty competition ever again :P)
11:46 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav has 10 damage with his mace. The orc's helmet doesn't cover that spot, so no resistance. 10 damage times 1.5 severity = [10 * 1.5] -> 15.0
11:47 (1465) Derick: (Tensided; like other RPGs, but with more flying teeth.)
11:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 15 is more than 100% of the orc's 12 HP.
11:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: If he were a PC or important NPC, he would be Incapacitated, but since he's just a mook, he's dead.
11:47 (1497) Lenny: (There goes the mouthpiece...There go the teeth!)
11:47 (1498) Wiggins: (Down with Mooks!)
11:48 (1516) Gustav: ("Four!" crack!)
11:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orc takes the mace shot full force to the mouth. He doesn't even have time to scream before the impact turns his brain to strawberry mush inside his thick head. He stiffens momentarily before dropping to the ground.
11:49 (1512) Valarian: (his neck would probably be proken as well...)
11:49 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc's 5, 6, and 7 take shots at Derick.
11:49 (1516) Gustav: (Splash 1...)
11:49 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 5 comes first from the flank, targeting the 1 = rider, 2 = horse [1d2] -> [1] = (1)
11:49 (1465) Derick: (Anyone not done anything yet? - Neck broken? Yeah, probably bleeding too, but I doubt he cares much now... ;) )
11:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10 + 10 + 4 - 21] -> [3,10,4,-21] = (-4) (1d10 + HtH AT + flank bonus - Derick's HtH AT - 5)
11:51 (1484) arthurtuxedo: It's no use. The orc can't get his axe strike in, with Derick in such swift motion.
11:51 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 6 takes a swing, but since Derick's weapon has longer reach, Derick gets a free strike.
11:52 (1465) Derick: (1d10+16 again, or reduced?)
11:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [9 + 5] -> 14 = 14 (Orc's HtH AT + 5)
11:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The same)
11:52 (1465) Derick: Free stike to Orc6 [1d10+16] -> [2,16] = (18)
11:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for general location)
11:53 (1465) Derick: [1d10] -> [3] = (3)
11:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Left Arm
11:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for specific location)
11:53 (1465) Derick: And, at a guess, specific location [1d10] -> [7] = (7)
11:53 (1465) Derick: (I have predicted correctly )
11:53 (1497) Lenny: (take his arm off at the elbow!)
11:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Elbow
11:54 (1512) Valarian: (that arm is sooo unusable now...)
11:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 14 damage - 6 resistance = 8 * 2 severity = 16 damage. The orc's arm is maimed and blood gushes freely. He will probably never be able to use it again.
11:55 (1516) Gustav: (Orc6: It's just a scratch! Derick: Your arm's clean off!)
11:55 (1465) Derick: (Ah but the question, friends, is if he can slay valiant but annoying Derick with that axe with only one arm!)
11:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: With the arm injury, the orc's attack is ruined and will not take place.
11:55 (1516) Gustav: (Guess not.)
11:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 7 has dropped his net and goes for his axe.
11:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 2
11:55 (1497) Lenny: (damn, two more damage and his arm would have flown off)
11:56 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla is reloading her bow. (Takes 2 rounds)
11:56 ** (1497) Lenny continues casting, his motions quickening now. **
11:56 (1499) G.O.G.M.: reloading bow
11:56 (1465) Derick: (Huzzah. I was thinking of using a bunch of flaws to create a joke character with godlike HtH skills, but no limbs, and calling him 'Darkstar, the Black Knight')
11:57 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (can i reload and move on my horse at the same time)
11:57 ** (1498) Wiggins curses himself. One would think after all this time, Oi'd know not to just start shootin random-like! Deciding, vowing even, to take better aim. (Aiming this round) **
11:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yes, but not at full gallop, only 1 square movement)
11:57 (1499) G.O.G.M.: moving east and reloading
11:58 ** (1516) Gustav continues flanking manuver with a charge on Orc 1 "For Cormyr" **
11:58 (1512) Valarian: (my spell should go off... MoS is only -1 so it still works)
11:59 (1465) Derick: (Any chance I can trample number seven with the horse while he's readying that axe?)
12:00 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yep)
12:00 (1465) Derick: (Will that impede further movement, or will I be able to run him down then get two more squares?)
12:01 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That will impede further movement)
12:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: So Quan-El is moving and reloading, Wiggins is aiming, and Gustav is flank-attacking Orc 1
12:02 (1512) Valarian: Once Valarian finishes his first spell, he immediatly begins another spell, one which will hopefully counter the other mage's spell. He figures it is probably an attack spell and casts accordingly. [1d10+14] -> [7,14] = (21)
12:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Lenny, Valarian, and the Red Wizard are casting
12:02 (1465) Derick: (Will I be able to finish number six after trampling number seven?)
12:03 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (right on)
12:03 (1505) Milla Rell: (And Milla's reloading)
12:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You can simultaneously attack 6 while your horse tramples 7, yes. There will be a -5 penalty because of the bumpy ride)
12:04 (1465) Derick: (Humm, forget it, I'll just go for number 5, and leave complicated stuff for another time...)
12:04 (1465) Derick: (Presuming that I get another chance to stab seven when he attacks with the axe, anyway)
12:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: First, two things happen simultaneously: Valarian and the Red Wizard's spells go off.
12:06 (1498) Wiggins: (eep)
12:06 (1512) Valarian: (then cancel the counterspell)
12:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Valarian aims his spell at the Wizard, though Orc 5 is in the way. 1 = hits wizard, 2 = hits orc 5 [1d2] -> [1] = (1)
12:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Make your attack roll. AT is Ranged + Coord, and there's a +4 bonus. DF = 17 (15 + 2)
12:08 (1512) Valarian: [1d10+15+4] -> [5,15,4] = (24)
12:09 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Hit location)
12:09 (1512) Valarian: [1d10] -> [10] = (10)
12:09 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Head
12:09 (1497) Lenny: (oh jesus)
12:09 (1505) Milla Rell: (Flying gray matter....)
12:10 (1512) Valarian: (wow, seems that he will be king of the winter carnaval after all)
12:10 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (wait for it)
12:10 (1512) Valarian: (*carnival, rather)
12:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Specific location?)
12:10 (1512) Valarian: [1d20] -> [9] = (9)
12:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Nose
12:11 (1512) Valarian: (poor bastard)
12:12 (1497) Lenny: (that'll ruin your day)
12:12 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Valarian sends a jet of air at the Red Wizard that impacts him right on his bulbous nose. It is so cold that his head turns blue and he falls to the ground, dead.
12:12 (1497) Lenny: (O.o)
12:12 (1498) Wiggins: (w00t)
12:12 (1516) Gustav: (Brain freeze... of Doom!)
12:13 (1505) Milla Rell: (Yeah.)
12:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The Red Wizards spell goes off simultaneously, with no discernable effect until the now-enraged bodyguard suddenly starts running much faster.
12:13 (1498) Wiggins: (wizords for teh win)
12:13 (1465) Derick: (That'll teach him to act so hot-headedly)
12:13 (1512) Valarian: (oh dear... I think I will need to take that bodyguyard down)
12:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orcs don't seem to realize that their leader is gone.
12:13 (1516) Gustav: (Rather you than me, mate.)
12:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick attacks Orc 5.
12:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You know the drill now, right?)
12:14 (1465) Derick: (Yup - more ambitious this time: Quick check on technique. Can I use the dirty fighting bonus (sand in the eyes or something I suspect) while making a called shot to the head?)
12:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yep)
12:16 (1465) Derick: (What's the penalty for the called shot? 1d10+16+2-?}
12:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Penalty for the head shot is 4, unless you have precise strike, in which case it's 2)
12:17 (1465) Derick: (Whaddya know. I do... So, evens out at 1d10+16. Neat)
12:17 (1512) Valarian: bonus to hit +1 strand, hits next round, +3 strands. Total 16 strands)
12:18 ** (1465) Derick makes a bold and less-than-knighly stab in the general direction of the head, accompanied by a swift spur to the gonads; [1d10+16] -> [4,16] = (20) **
12:18 (1512) Valarian: (son of a bitch..)
12:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d20 for specific hit location)
12:19 (1465) Derick: [1d20] -> [17] = (17)
12:19 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OUCH)
12:19 (1497) Lenny: (night night)
12:19 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Jugular
12:19 (1516) Gustav: (This is going to be messy...)
12:19 (1498) Wiggins: (yeah, he's not gonna eat any more of mom's cookies)
12:20 (1512) Valarian: Valarian stards a second spell as soon as he finished the first. He targets the bodyguard, who could get nasty. (9 strands heat damage Projectile +3 strands, +2 hit bonus +1 strand hits on next round +3. Total 16 strands)
12:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: No resistance at that spot, so 14 damage * 4 severity = [14 * 4] -> 56
12:20 (1465) Derick: (Goodnight...)
12:20 (1498) Wiggins: (wait, wait. he could still be alive!)
12:20 (1512) Valarian: (lullaby..and, and goodnight... go to sleep little ork scum...)
12:21 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orc's head flies freely off of his shoulders, and lands on the ground with a thud, looking up at the sky. The stump geysers blood everywhere and spasms a few times, before dropping to the ground next to the severed head.
12:21 (1465) Derick: (To the orc, mind, not you guys. Still got err, two hours forty minutes.)
12:21 (1516) Gustav: (See! Messy.)
12:22 (1512) Valarian: (spell roll) [1d10+14] -> [2,14] = (16)
12:22 (1465) Derick: ("And this comrades, is why I wear a red cloak!")
12:22 (1512) Valarian: (yay... just made it without problems)
12:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 6 attack's Derick. He's already inside Derick's reach, so no free strike.
12:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d2] -> [2] = (2) 1 = horse, 2 = Derick
12:23 (1465) Derick: (Though I suspect having one arm makes for a considerable penalty)
12:23 (1512) Valarian: (and unless he can jump really well, he cant hit you on the head)
12:24 (1498) Wiggins: (what? it's just a flesh wound.)
12:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10 + 10 -2 - 17] -> [5,10,-2,-17] = (-4) (1d10 + HtH AT - 2 for using a 2-handed weapon with 1 hand - Derick's AT - 5)
12:25 (1465) Derick: ("Pathetic, what're you going to do, bite my ankles?")
12:25 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Derick's AT here is 12 rather than 16. I forgot that horseback skill is a limiter. If you're on horseback, no skill can be higher than horseback)
12:25 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick easily parries the orc's clumsy attacks.
12:26 (1512) Valarian (exit): 12:26
12:26 (1516) Gustav: (I'm gonna have to improve horseback...)
12:26 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Quan-El moves at a trot while reloading her arrow. Orcs 3 and 4 continue to run forward, hoping to get at the archers. The bodyguard sprints forward at a horse's pace, and Orc 1 gets out his ax.
12:26 (1465) Derick: (Likewise *Puts on Anvil of Crom... Seeming appropriate ATM*)
12:27 (1465) Derick: (Wan't number 7 going to attack me too?)
12:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav moves to flank the orc, but the orc sees him coming and turns to face him as he comes in.
12:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (he can't. He just got his ax out this round)
12:27 (1465) Derick: (Ah.)
12:28 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 1 swings at Gustav as he comes in (free strike). [1d10 + 14 - 20] -> [1,14,-20] = (-5)
12:28 (1558) Valarian (enter): 12:28
12:28 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10] -> [3] = (3)
12:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav expertly parries the incoming swing, and retaliates with his mace.
12:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Attack roll)
12:29 (1558) Valarian: (got booted)
12:29 ** (1516) Gustav signals his horse to rear and strike out with its hooves (dirty fighting) whilst Gustav brings his mace down on its head [1d10+15+2+2] -> [8,15,2,2] = (27) **
12:29 Attempting to assign the role of PLAYER to (1558) Valarian...
12:30 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (hit location)
12:30 (1465) Derick: (Yay, we have two knights who have all the chivalry of weasels. Realism or what? XD )
12:30 (1516) Gustav: (called to head)
12:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, that's fine, but normally you have to call the shot when you make the roll)
12:31 (1498) Wiggins: (It's not weaselly if he's fighting evil)
12:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d20 for specific location)
12:31 (1516) Gustav: [1d20] -> [5] = (5) for specific
12:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Jaw
12:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 10 damage * 1.5 severity = 15.
12:31 (1516) Gustav: (stated in the action "brings his mace down on its head.")
12:32 (1516) Gustav: (i'll make it more obvious in the future)
12:32 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (ah, I see) The orc's neck is savagely broken by the vicious swing, and it drops to the ground.
12:32 (1465) Derick: {Humm. Gustav's motief that... Next turn, I'm going to call a shot at the jugular, see if I can't get two there!)
12:32 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 3
12:32 (1558) Valarian: (ouch)
12:33 (1516) Gustav: (and what's wrong with these little tricks? Who said war was fair?)
12:33 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The archers are still reloading, except for Wiggins, who is loaded and aimed.
12:33 (1465) Derick: (Humm. I can see why these two are sent out together!)
12:33 ** (1516) Gustav chases down the next (t3, right?) **
12:34 (1558) Valarian: (and this round... my glorious spell goes off bwahaha)
12:34 (1465) Derick: (Yeah, I'd go for Target 3. I'm debating going for number four myself, to keep them well away from the archers.)
12:34 (1498) Wiggins: (trying to see what orcs is dead and what orcs isn't)
12:35 (1498) Wiggins: Having taken his aim (for once), Wiggins fires a bolt at Orc#6.
12:35 (1465) Derick: (Three and four are uninjured, six has one arm, and seven is wounded somehow (I forget)
12:36 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Orcs 3, 4, 6, and 7 are still in play)
12:37 (1465) Derick: (I'm reminded, in this game, is talking (or indeed, shouting) a 'free action' type thing?)
12:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yeah, pretty much. I'm not too strict about that)
12:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: So Wiggins fires at #6, Gustav charges #3, Valarian's spell at the bodyguard goes off, as does Lenny's protection spell.
12:38 (1516) Gustav: (3 shoud be closest. I wanna continue my rampage! And 4 would stop pointy things flying your way!)
12:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: How about Derick?
12:39 (1465) Derick: (I'll go for four- moving to the north of it to cut it off.)
12:39 (1465) Derick: (That way Gustav and I can stick together to go after the bodyguard)
12:39 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Oh, by the way, we roll the spell rolls at the time they go off, so we don't have to scroll up.
12:40 (1516) Gustav: (Hmm... yeah! fun!.. If Valarian leaves anything of it)
12:40 (1558) Valarian: (ok)
12:41 (1558) Valarian: Spell roll [1d10+14] -> [3,14] = (17)
12:41 (1516) Gustav: (I hope not personally...)
12:41 (1465) Derick: (Number seven isn't going anywhere fast, and the archers can turn number six into a pincushion.)
12:41 (1558) Valarian: (total difficulty was 16)
12:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Since when is Valarian's magic skill 14? It says 12 on my sheet0
12:41 (1558) Valarian: (0h, sorry)
12:41 (1558) Valarian: (typo)
12:42 (1558) Valarian: [1d10+12] -> [1,12] = (13)
12:42 (1558) Valarian: (damn)
12:42 (1558) Valarian: (this might suck)
12:42 (1558) Valarian: (at least it didnt backfire... fuck my rolls are low today)
12:43 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (blow on the dice)
12:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Valarian starts to lose control of the magic at the time of casting. He manages to get the spell off, but it fatigues him greatly (+4 fatigue levels). It goes off with just 5 strands instead of 9.
12:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (hit location)
12:43 (1558) Valarian: [1d10] -> [6] = (6)
12:44 (1516) Gustav: (Get a new random number generator, this ones no good, Valarian!)
12:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Torso
12:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Abdomen, rather
12:44 (1558) Valarian: (damn, I was hoping I could scorch his chest hair)
12:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (specific location)
12:45 (1558) Valarian: [1d20] -> [8] = (8)
12:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (It's a d10)
12:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Only for head is it a d20)
12:45 (1558) Valarian: (ah)
12:45 (1558) Valarian: [1d10] -> [4] = (4)
12:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Kidney
12:46 (1558) Valarian: (ouch)
12:46 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The blast of heat streaks toward the bodyguard. However, his armor absorbs the brunt of the blast, and he continues like nothing happened.
12:46 (1465) Derick: (Everything in this game is 'ouch')
12:47 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (that wasn't ouch)
12:47 ** (1558) Valarian hisses under his breath **
12:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick cuts off orc 4's advance as the bodyguard tries to catch up. Orcs 6 and 7 get free swings at Derick as he rides away from them.
12:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 6: [1d10 + 14 - 2 - 17] -> [7,14,-2,-17] = (2) Orc 7: [1d10 + 14 - 2 - 17] -> [8,14,-2,-17] = (3)
12:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10] -> [7] = (7) [1d10] -> [8] = (8)
12:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Both torso
12:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10] -> [10] = (10) [1d10] -> [1] = (1)
12:49 (1484) arthurtuxedo: General torso hit, and heart hit. Better hope they don't get through your armor :)
12:49 (1516) Gustav: (So... Got good armour?)
12:50 (1465) Derick: (Masterwork light mail, resistance 8. What now?)
12:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (This, folks, is why I admonished a few people for taking light leather just to not have a athleticism penalty. If Derick was wearing light leather, he'd be dead)
12:50 (1558) Valarian: and begins the casting of his third spell of the day. He was going to shrink the bodyguard. (10 strands +3 for projectile +3 for 1 round cast)
12:51 (1465) Derick: (Last time I ride away from an enemy easily. One way or another...So, is there more rolling to be done for me now?)
12:51 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orc's ax heads straight for Derick's heart and impacts his chest, but his carefully woven mail is stronger than the orc's one-handed strike.
12:51 (1465) Derick: (Apparently not. Ahah! Costly thy raiment indeed.)
12:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The second orc has more force behind his swing. 11 - 8 = 3 adjusted damage. 3 damage is less than 25% of Derick's HP, so he is reduced to Hurt, which confers no penalties.
12:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The second orc swings and draws blood, but the wound is minor and does not slow Derick down.
12:53 (1565) Megan (enter): 12:53
12:54 (1498) Wiggins: (rowr!)
12:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav attacks orc 3 from the flank.
12:55 (1516) Gustav: Mace to head, again [1d10+15+2] -> [1,15,2] = (18)
12:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Roll 18 - 1d10
12:55 (1516) Gustav: [1d10] -> [7] = (7)
12:56 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [9 + 5 + 4 - 4] -> 14
12:56 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [18 - 7] -> 11 is less than the DF of 14. The horse steps on a deep patch of mud, throwing off the strike.
12:57 (1516) Gustav: (nuts.)
12:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 4
12:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Oh, forgot to mention. Lenny's protection spell went off at the beginning of round 3
12:57 (1498) Wiggins: um
12:57 (1465) Derick: Err. Did I get to attack orc 4, or do I do that now?
12:57 (1558) Valarian: (yay for lenny)
12:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You cut him off, you attack now)
12:58 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla shoots an arrow at the solar plexis of the bodygaurd.
12:58 (1465) Derick: (Right.)
12:58 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (can i aim, with fast aim and shoot in one round?)
12:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The archers have reloaded.
12:58 ** (1516) Gustav really wants to kill 3 now! **
12:58 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yep)
12:58 (1499) G.O.G.M.: aiming and firing on 3
12:59 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Wiggins still has aim.
12:59 (1498) Wiggins: Having taken his aim (for once), Wiggins fires a bolt at Orc#6.
12:59 (1516) Gustav: (Yeah... shoot the one just about to be bashed to death...)
01:00 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (closest target)
01:00 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (take the bodyguard)
01:00 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla shoots an arrow at the bodygaurd's sloar plexis.
01:01 (1516) Gustav: (Hit my horse, and you're for the high jump, mate!)
01:01 ** (1497) Lenny is surrounded by an invisible aura of protection. He takes a quick survey of the battlefield, and begins casting another spell. (Direct damage concussion, at bodyguard, windpipe called shot, 1 round casting time) **
01:01 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla fires at the bodyguard. DF = [15 + 2 + 5 - 5] -> 17
01:02 (1505) Milla Rell: [1d0+18] -> [1,18] = (19)
01:02 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (roll 19 - 1d10)
01:03 (1505) Milla Rell: [19-1d10] -> [19,-5] = (14)
01:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I'd also like to point out that no one has used their action point. You get 1 per session and you can't stockpile them)
01:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Action point can be spent to re-roll a bad roll or make an enemy re-roll a good one)
01:03 (1465) Derick: (Any enemy, or just the one you're engaged with?)
01:04 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Anyone, really)
01:04 (1516) Gustav: (Dark muttering... Coulda known that before.)
01:04 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You can make yourself or anyone else re-roll)
01:04 (1498) Wiggins: (quit your blubberin, you ain't dead)
01:04 (1497) Lenny: (yeah, it's not like you got hit in your weapon hand, and then swung with your off-hand and stuck yourself in the gut)
01:04 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla's horse suddenly whinnies, causing her shot to miss.
01:05 (1516) Gustav: (If ya got 'em, smoke 'em. And I need to start.)
01:05 (1498) Wiggins: (bwaha!)
01:05 (1505) Milla Rell: (I have a horse?! How?)
01:05 (1516) Gustav: (Yeah. That'd suck)
01:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Got you confused with Quan-El)
01:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Quan-El's horse suddenly whinnies, causing Milla's shot to miss (somehow).
01:05 (1497) Lenny: (lol)
01:06 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (s'gay)
01:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Now it's Derrick's turn.
01:06 (1505) Milla Rell: (Ok, Ill use an action point to re-roll the 1d10+18 roll.)
01:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, go ahead)
01:06 ** (1465) Derick spits at the fourth foe en passant, not even remotely damagingly, but offputtingly, before delivering another precise blow aimed at the orc's jugular as his noble steed turns. (Dirty fighting again, precise called shot to the jugular) [1d10+16] -> [6,16] = (22) **
01:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Go ahead and roll location while Milla rolls again)
01:06 (1465) Derick: (Noble, in that it's more noble than he is. XD)
01:06 (1505) Milla Rell: [1d10+18] -> [10,18] = (28)
01:07 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (mo betta)
01:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Roll 28 + 1d10)
01:07 (1465) Derick: (If it's called to the jugular (anatomy) does it actually need a location roll?)
01:07 (1505) Milla Rell: [1d10+28] -> [6,28] = (34)
01:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Um, no. Ignore that)
01:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla's shot hits the guard square in the solar plexis.
01:08 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 10 damage + 2 penetration - 10 resistance = 2 damage * 2 severity = 4 damage. This is more than 25% of his HP, so he is injured (-1 to all rolls)
01:08 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Moved the dead ones out of play)
01:08 (1505) Milla Rell: (Darn Armor.)
01:09 (1558) Valarian: (it is handy.. dont worry, soon I will have him ...cut down to size)
01:10 (1558) Valarian: (speaking of which, that spell should go off... and if I dont do well on the roll, I have every intention of using an action point to ameliorate it)
01:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Now, let's see. Derick has 12 AT on his horse, so his final roll would be 18. DF = [9 + 5 + 15 - 2] -> 27 (9 HtH + 5 + 15 jugular location penalty + 2 precise strike)
01:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Jugular is not a place you can easily hit. -15 to hit, folks)
01:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick goes after the orc's jugular, but the orc swats his attack aside.
01:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav's turn.
01:11 (1499) G.O.G.M.: \Quan - El
01:11 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (oops)
01:12 (1465) Derick: (Oh well. We live and learn. Well, Deri doesn't... Can I still use the action-point to re-roll against that orc?)
01:12 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You'll just miss again)
01:12 ** (1516) Gustav closes to wack the orc on the head (called headshot on 3 [1d10+15+2] -> [9,15,2] = (26) **
01:12 (1516) Gustav: (better!)
01:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d20 for specific location)
01:13 (1465) Derick: Point. Can't actually beat that.
01:13 (1516) Gustav: [1d20] -> [12] = (12)
01:13 (1516) Gustav: (ah well. Something different this time)
01:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav strikes with his mace, hitting the orc in the right ear, mangling both the ear and the orc's hearing.
01:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 4 attacks Derick, but Derick gets his free strike first.
01:14 (1465) Derick: [1d10+12] -> [4,12] = (16)
01:14 (1516) Gustav: (Can I get a re-roll on the specific location hit?)
01:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Sure, if you want)
01:15 (1558) Valarian: (watch, he gets the left ear)
01:15 (1516) Gustav: [1d20] -> [5] = (5), 1AP left (lucky)
01:15 (1516) Gustav: (Jaw!)
01:15 (1465) Derick: (DF of the orc is what, 12 for an unplaced shot?)
01:15 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Gustav, indulging his jaw fetish yet again, fells yet another orc with a shot to the jaw.
01:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (14)
01:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for general location, Derick)
01:16 (1465) Derick: I'm assuming it's 1d10 for location now [1d10] -> [6] = (6)
01:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (yep)
01:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Abdomen
01:16 (1465) Derick: I'm assuming it's 1d10 for specific location now [1d10] -> [2] = (2)
01:16 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (can i change my aim to 4?)
01:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I wonder where Pete is)
01:17 (1565) Megan: (at least it's quiet for now. *G*)
01:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Yeah, you don't have to specify a target until you actually fire)
01:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: General abdomen. 14 damage - 6 resistance = 8 damage. Orc 4 is Wounded.
01:18 (1558) Valarian: (so... that shrink ray going to go off?)
01:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 4's attack: [1d10 + 10 - 12 - 5 - 2] -> [9,10,-12,-5,-2] = (0)
01:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10] -> [1] = (1)
01:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Left leg
01:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10] -> [10] = (10)
01:18 (1498) Wiggins: (SHRINK! RAY!)
01:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Yikes, aorta.
01:18 (1558) Valarian: (teensy weensy!!!)
01:19 (1558) Valarian: (and the blood shall flow....)
01:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 9 damage + 2 penetration - 8 resistance = 3 damage. Left leg is Damaged (cannot sprint). Bleeding is at full 3 damage per minute.
01:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That's not too severe. The mages can probably heal that with 1 spell)
01:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Now Quan-El's shot goes off.
01:20 (1465) Derick: (Arse biscuits. How long is a round?)
01:20 (1505) Milla Rell: (Or I can use the medic skill.)
01:20 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1 round = 1 second)
01:21 (1558) Valarian: (I wouldnt worry. I can get you fixed up)
01:21 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [5] = (5)
01:21 (1497) Lenny: (Me very good doctor!)
01:21 (1499) G.O.G.M.: orc 4
01:21 (1465) Derick: (Most worried about having to run away from the guard...)
01:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = 15, final roll = 5 + 15 = 20.
01:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (roll 1d10 for general location)
01:22 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [4] = (4)
01:22 (1558) Valarian: (if my shrink ray goes off as planned, I wouldnt worry about him.. he wont be able to pick up his weapon)
01:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Right arm
01:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 for specific)
01:22 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Did Wiggins go this round?)
01:22 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [6] = (6)
01:23 (1498) Wiggins: (not yet)
01:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Hand.
01:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 10 damage + 2 pen - 6 res = 6. Right arm is crippled (-10 to all rolls with it). The orc also drops his axe.
01:23 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Wiggins' turn
01:24 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (very handy)
01:24 (1498) Wiggins: Orc#6 [1d10+16] -> [1,16] = (17)
01:24 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (17 - 1d10)
01:24 (1498) Wiggins: [1d10-17] -> [7,-17] = (-10)
01:24 (1498) Wiggins: er
01:25 (1498) Wiggins: [17-1d10] -> [17,-2] = (15)
01:25 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Wiggins' shot goes wide and hits one of the dead bodies instead.
01:25 (1497) Lenny: (haha)
01:26 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The bodyguard rushes in at magically enhanced speed, and starts attacking Derick furiously.
01:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Haste spell gives 2 extra actions. I won't go into detail explaining, but that means that he can take 3 actions at -4 penalty, or 5 at -8 instead of 2 and 3, respectively)
01:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The guard attacks 3 times in rapid succession.
01:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10 + 14 - 12 - 5 - 4] -> [2,14,-12,-5,-4] = (-5)
01:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10 + 14 - 12 - 5 - 4] -> [4,14,-12,-5,-4] = (-3)
01:27 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [1d10 + 14 - 12 - 5 - 4] -> [4,14,-12,-5,-4] = (-3)
01:28 (1465) Derick: (Ouch time...*Basks in the hate having quoted the beast*)
01:28 (1516) Gustav: (Miss time...)
01:28 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Derick manages to stave off the guard's furious assault, but it might be hard to get inside the halberd's superior range unscathed.
01:28 (1497) Lenny: (suck time...)
01:28 (1498) Wiggins: (my no know! my was walkin when all of sudden, boomdagasser and my is banished)
01:28 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 5
01:29 (1497) Lenny: (spell time)
01:29 (1505) Milla Rell: (Can I move back and relaod at the same time?)
01:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Archers need to reload, except Wiggins, who is still locked and loaded. I belive both mages had spells slated for this round.
01:29 (1558) Valarian: (you skipped my own spell BTW)
01:29 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (is dropping a weapon a free action)
01:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I thought that was for this round)
01:29 (1558) Valarian: (mine was slated for last roughd, but either way...)
01:29 ** (1516) Gustav switches mace for lance (Quick draw) and charges the bodyguard if possible **
01:29 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Dropping a weapon is a free action, but drawing another one is not)
01:29 (1558) Valarian: (Doesnt matter, he still gets shrunk)
01:29 ** (1465) Derick shouts something highly insulting, about the halberd and the guard's head, and focusses on defence. (IIRC, tensided has a 'defensive stance' bit which is what he's going to be doing now. **
01:30 (1516) Gustav: (I'll drop if I have to. I still have a backup.)
01:31 (1516) Gustav: (I really want to use the lance though.)
01:31 (1558) Valarian: Spell Roll [1d10+12] -> [7,12] = (19) If this is low, I will use an action point to reroll
01:31 (1499) G.O.G.M.: drop bow , quick draw sword and have my horse charge the bodyguard
01:31 (1558) Valarian: (YAY)
01:31 (1505) Milla Rell: (Can I move backwards and reload in this round?)
01:31 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Not without a horse. It's one or the other)
01:31 (1505) Milla Rell: (Ok.)
01:32 (1558) Valarian: (that, my friends, was a perfect casting)
01:33 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Milla reloads, Quan-El switches for sword, Gustav switches for bow, Valarian and Lenny cast. What about Derick and Wiggins?
01:34 (1516) Gustav: (nitpick: lance :P)
01:34 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That's what I meant)
01:34 ** (1498) Wiggins will start aiming at #6 - again. **
01:34 (1465) Derick: As above, if possible, focussing solely on defence, after the last turn.
01:34 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Wiggins is already aimed. He's ready to fire again)
01:34 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (oh, right. Forgot that bit)
01:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: First, Valarian and Lenny's spells go off.
01:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (How many strands on the shrink ray?)
01:35 (1465) Derick: (At least, if the tensided rules give any benefit for that. Otherwise I'll go for 4 again.
01:35 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (They do. Sizable benefit)
01:35 (1558) Valarian: (10, though with modifiers it is 16 effectively)
01:35 (1498) Wiggins: (okay, then Wiggins will again try to hit #6)
01:36 (1465) Derick: (Superb)
01:36 (1558) Valarian: [1d10+12] -> [1,12] = (13) again, if low, I will use the action point to reroll
01:36 (1558) Valarian: and I will
01:36 (1558) Valarian: action point used
01:36 (1558) Valarian: [1d10+12] -> [10,12] = (22)
01:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Valarian sends a shrink ray toward the bodyguard, whose size is instantly cut in half.
01:37 (1558) Valarian: (does he even fit i nside his armor anymore?)
01:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (What was Lenny's spell?)
01:37 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (All his equipment shrinks, too)
01:38 (1497) Lenny: (concussion damage, targeted to the windpipe, with a +10 accuracy bonus, 5 strands)
01:38 (1516) Gustav: (Dammit! We need shrinking soda!)
01:38 (1497) Lenny: [1d10+11] -> [10,11] = (21)
01:38 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (OK, so 10 strands. You couldn't roll that low no matter what)
01:39 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Attack roll)
01:39 (1497) Lenny: Ranged roll: [1d10 +11 +8] -> [8,11,8] = (27)
01:40 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (How is that Lenny's roll? I count 1d10 + ranged + coordination + 10 = 1d10 + 11 + 11 + 10 = 1d10 + 32)
01:40 (1497) Lenny: (well, I forgot the 10 accuracy, but he's got 8 ranged and 11 coord)
01:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Oh, I see. Was looking at the wrong column. Okay, so 37)
01:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: [Bad dice format] - [DF = 15 + 5 + 15]
01:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = [Bad dice format] - [15 = 5 + 15]
01:41 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Dammit! DF = [15 + 5 + 15] -> 35
01:42 (1497) Lenny: (lol)
01:42 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Lenny blasts the shrunken guard with a bolt of pure force, hitting him right in the windpipe.
01:42 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (5 damage * 8 severity = 40 damage compared to 9 HP)
01:43 (1558) Valarian: (his throat explodes...)
01:43 (1497) Lenny: (= pwned in the windpipe)
01:43 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The guard wheezes sharply as he futily attempts to inhale precious oxygen. He falls to the ground, gasping for air that he will never taste again.
01:43 (1505) Milla Rell: (Messy...)
01:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Who was Wiggins aiming at, again?)
01:44 (1498) Wiggins: (6)
01:44 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Alright, Wiggins fires a bolt at #6.
01:45 (1498) Wiggins: [1d10+16] -> [7,16] = (23)
01:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: DF = 23
01:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (You know the drill)
01:45 (1498) Wiggins: [1d10] -> [10] = (10)
01:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Head
01:45 (1498) Wiggins: [1d12] -> [5] = (5)
01:45 (1498) Wiggins: [1d20] -> [8] = (8)
01:45 (1498) Wiggins: (woops)
01:45 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Jaw
01:46 (1558) Valarian: (god damn)
01:46 (1498) Wiggins: ('bout damn time)
01:46 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The bolt catches #6 square on the jaw and embeds. 6 damage * 1.5 = 9 compared to 12 HP. Orc 6 is Wounded.
01:47 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Round 6
01:47 (1465) Derick: (Would he not also have lost HP when I cut his arm off?)
01:48 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orcs 6 and 7 put up their hands and drop their weapons, yelling in Orcish. Orc 4 assumes a defensive stance, and yells "We is giving up!" in broken Common.
01:48 (1498) Wiggins: (SOMEONE PLAY BLOCKY GAME! WE AM DONE!)
01:49 (1465) Derick: (NO GIVING UP GENERAL JAR-JAR!)
01:49 ** (1516) Gustav levels the lance at 4 and waits dfor someone else to say something **
01:49 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (wasn't I able to get a charge in after drawing my weopon?)
01:50 (1558) Valarian: "Who in the nine hells sent you tusk-mouthed scum. Tell me, or in the name of Mystra I will end you"
01:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (That's right, I forgot about that)
01:50 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Before that hapens, Quan-El rides at #4
01:50 ** (1465) Derick being the closest to the orcs, takes a careful look around to see what the consensus is... He's presonally leaning towards 'kill the bastards' but this is mosty due to leg pain. One would hope. **
01:51 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla continues loading her bow, then aims it at the orcs.
01:51 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (1d10 + your AT for Quan-El)
01:52 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [1] = (1)
01:52 ** (1558) Valarian mutters something about ending them anyway under his breath. Only Lenny would have a chance at hearing him say it though **
01:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Okay, another 1d10 unless you want to burn your action point to re-roll that)
01:52 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (action point)
01:52 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [8] = (8)
01:52 (1484) arthurtuxedo: That's a hit. 1d10 for general location
01:53 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [6] = (6)
01:53 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Abdomen. 1d10 for specific location
01:53 (1499) G.O.G.M.: [1d10] -> [8] = (8)
01:53 (1465) Derick: (Ah, to be evil! Such an urge to really shrink a rock down, feed it to an orc, and then wait for the spell to wear off...)
01:54 (1516) Gustav: (You monster! : ) )
01:54 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Liver. 9 dmg + 2 pen - 6 res = 5 damage. 5 dmg in internal bleeding per minute.
01:54 (1465) Derick: (I take it we're rejecting the surrender then?)
01:55 (1558) Valarian: (NO! I NEED TO TORTURE THEM FOR INFORMATION!!!)
01:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (This happened before the surrender so we backed up the clock)
01:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: OK, now the orcs surrender.
01:55 (1465) Derick: (Ah.)
01:55 (1499) G.O.G.M.: " let none but one live, he perhaps can give us some information"
01:55 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 4 is screwed. Nobody has high enough medic to save him from bleeding to death.
01:56 (1505) Milla Rell: "Ill take care of that orc's wounds, to make him friendly." Milla says.
01:56 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (too bad)
01:56 (1558) Valarian: (just to let you know, Cormyr is full of pussies who dont take kindly to killing prisoners)
01:56 ** (1465) Derick looks at the tree-hugger and grins a bit. His kind of woman... **
01:56 (1558) Valarian: "So, scum. WHo sent you. The mage I kill couldnt have been the one to teleport you"
01:56 (1465) Derick: (Ah, but the question is, who's going to tell them? >.>)
01:56 (1516) Gustav: (aw... to bad. He was such a nice orc. /sarcasm)
01:57 (1505) Milla Rell: (Which one are we saving?)
01:57 (1499) G.O.G.M.: " I didn't take any prisoners, did anyone else?"
01:57 (1558) Valarian: *killed
01:57 (1465) Derick: (I'd try for saving six and seven...)
01:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: "We is fight for Thay, yes?" Orc 4 manages through his wounds.
01:57 ** (1497) Lenny stands silently, watching everything, and waiting. **
01:57 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (The bright red robes kind of give it away)
01:58 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "who is this thay?"
01:58 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla walks over to six, and starts tending to him, after making sure he is not going to attack her.
01:58 ** (1465) Derick puts up his sword and dismounts, in agony, and limps in the general direction of Milla. **
01:58 (1558) Valarian: "damn thayans. they will be hunting os for a while" (yeah I know, but sometimes Red Wizards do mercenary work)
01:58 ** (1516) Gustav looks away. He doesn't like the situation. This is perilously close to touching on matters of honour... **
01:59 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "strip them and see if they have anything interesting"
01:59 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Orc 4 gurgles. "Thay is wizards have big power."
01:59 (1558) Valarian: "Good orc. Nice orc. You get to live if I can heal you" (can I heal his bleeding?)
01:59 (1505) Milla Rell: After making sure 6 wont die, Milla will help Derick.
01:59 (1498) Wiggins: Not enough, apparently.
02:00 (1499) G.O.G.M.: dismounts horse while still leveling sword on 4
02:00 (1465) Derick: (Waits for the GM on the success of the healing.)
02:00 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Healing his bleeding would take 24 strands. It's internal and pretty severe)
02:01 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (I'm talking about #4)
02:01 (1558) Valarian: (hmm, I ALMOST can)
02:01 (1505) Milla Rell: (I think Im healing Derick) (Non-magically though)
02:02 (1499) G.O.G.M.: asking everyone " is there one anyone wants to keep alive other than this one?"
02:02 (1497) Lenny: ("I can heal!" Lenny says. He rushes forward and attempts a "healing" spell, and makes the wounds worse.)
02:03 (1465) Derick: (*Beats him black and blue with the flat of his sword*)
02:03 (1499) G.O.G.M.: " i do not want him healed, I'd prefer he die"
02:03 (1505) Milla Rell: (If you are talking about 4, then Iid like to keep 6 alive.)
02:03 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "very well" dispatches 4
02:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (4 is the only one that speaks any common. And I don't think any of you speak Orcish)
02:03 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Hehe, too late)
02:03 (1516) Gustav: (Oh. Joy.)
02:04 (1505) Milla Rell: (Goblin work any?)
02:04 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Quan-El impales the orc on her sword.
02:04 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (not my concern)
02:04 (1558) Valarian: "WHat kind of purple dragoin knights are you. Murdering prisoners"
02:04 ** (1465) Derick winces a bit, looks at Quan-El, and mumbles, "Can we heal him?" - and then she kills him. **
02:04 (1516) Gustav: (SNAFU?)
02:04 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "what prisoners?"
02:04 (1516) Gustav: (SNAFU.)
02:04 (1499) G.O.G.M.: sheathing sword
02:04 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (no fubar)
02:04 (1558) Valarian: "DOnt pull that with me. They surrendered, they are prisoners."
02:05 (1505) Milla Rell: Alarmed, Milla starts backing up toward 6, jhoping that her companions will leave someone alive.
02:05 (1516) Gustav: (Aint bad enough for FUBAR)
02:05 (1558) Valarian: As he says this, he hobbles over to the dead wizard and rifles through his corpse
02:05 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "you may have this one" turning to retrieve bow and 2 arrows
02:05 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Valarian finds [1d6] -> [4] = (4) gold coins, but little else of interest.
02:05 (1516) Gustav: "Good question... I ask that of the others.)
02:05 (1558) Valarian: All the while shooting daggers at Quant El
02:05 (1498) Wiggins: 'e was dead already, just weren't there all the way yet.
02:06 (1558) Valarian: "Last I checked, I did not require your permission"
02:06 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The other wounds are pretty minor. Nothing that Valarian can't heal.
02:06 (1465) Derick: (So, is Derick going to die or not?)
02:07 (1558) Valarian: After he finished grabbing stuff off the corpse, he heals Orc 6 [1d10+12] -> [10,12] = (22)
02:07 (1465) Derick: (He doesn't, presently, seem too disposed to heal anyone...)
02:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Derick's fine. He barely even needs medical attention)
02:07 (1558) Valarian: (that will heal all his wounds methinks)
02:07 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (Although Orc 6's arm would take 24 strands to fully heal)
02:07 (1465) Derick: (Humm, huge bleeding puncture in the leg, IIRC...)
02:07 (1558) Valarian: "this one, will be turned over to the town magistrate, and he will be dealt with lawfully"
02:08 (1484) arthurtuxedo: We'll just assume that everyone is all nice and healed up.
02:08 (1516) Gustav: Recovers mace.
02:08 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Except Orc 6's arm.
02:08 (1558) Valarian: (yeah... but the rest of him should be OK)
02:08 (1505) Milla Rell: Milla sets about trying to talk to orc 6 in goblin, hoping the languages share words.
02:08 ** (1465) Derick makes for the bodyguard's body, and then the others, and tosses everything he can find into a pile. **
02:09 (1499) G.O.G.M.: "perhaps we should move along before any other suprises appear?"
02:09 ** (1497) Lenny chews on his bottom lip, his arms folded across his chest. His eyes dart back and forth among his "companions." **
02:09 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Goblin is fairly similar to orc, enough for basic communication.
02:09 (1516) Gustav: "Yes. That would be a good idea."
02:09 (1499) G.O.G.M.: checking bow and reclaimed arrows
02:09 (1465) Derick: (Humm. What kind of Purple Dragons are we? I think we may be the 'rejects kept around when brutality is needed' squad)
02:10 (1505) Milla Rell: (Good) Milla proceeds to ask the orc; Who hired them, and why.
02:10 (1499) G.O.G.M.: (this isn't brutality)
02:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The bodyguard had a halberd and medium mail armor (normal quality)
02:10 (1558) Valarian: "Indeed"
02:10 (1484) arthurtuxedo: "Nobody hire. Us slaves. Born slave. Is slave."
02:11 (1505) Milla Rell: "Who is your owner then?" Milla asks.
02:11 ** (1465) Derick sets about cleaning his sword, and beckons Lenny over, standing over the frozen-headed red wizard corpse. **
02:11 (1484) arthurtuxedo: "We is fight. Army. No own."
02:12 (1499) G.O.G.M.: moving over to milla
02:12 (1505) Milla Rell: "Who is your leader?" Milla asks
02:12 ** (1516) Gustav uses a nearby corpse's clothing to attempt to clean the mace off. **
02:12 ** (1497) Lenny pauses, then walks over to Derick, shuffling his feet. He keeps his arms folded. **
02:13 (1558) Valarian: "chances are, the Thayans, as well as the Zhentarim and the CUlt of the Dragon will be after us now... "
02:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orc points at the dead wizard.
02:13 (1465) Derick: "I'm assuming you're smart enough not to get struck dead or anything... Anything interesting in this guy's effects?"
02:13 (1505) Milla Rell: "Who was his leader?" Milla asks.
02:13 (1484) arthurtuxedo: The orc shrugs.
02:14 (1558) Valarian: Valarian mutters something in Draconic
02:14 (1484) arthurtuxedo: "They tell 'you fight'. No questions asking."
02:14 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Addressing Valarian " you seem to know most of our enimies, should we not get moving to further confuse them?"
02:14 ** (1465) Derick looks over his shoulder at Valarian, "It'd be easier to count whoever is not after you two." **
02:14 (1497) Lenny: "Valarian already took his money. I can check again." He looks through the wizard's pockets.
02:15 (1605) Henry Frost (enter): 14:15
02:15 (1505) Milla Rell: "Ok, come along with us, and Ill try to get these people not to kill you." Milla tells the orc.
02:15 (1605) Henry Frost: sorry I am late
02:15 (1498) Wiggins: (woot)
02:15 (1484) arthurtuxedo: A few spell ingredients is all. Channelers don't use material components, so it's not particularly useful to Valarian.
02:15 ** (1497) Lenny shakes his head. "Nothing any good." **
02:15 (1484) arthurtuxedo: (We'll stop here).
02:15 (1484) arthurtuxedo: * * * End Session 1 * * *
02:16 (1484) arthurtuxedo: 20 XP for all
02:16 (1558) Valarian: "his tattood scalp may fetch a good price in some markets..."
02:16 (1558) Valarian: YAY!!
02:16 ** (1465) Derick shrugs when Lenny turns up nothing, walks back to the bodyguard, takes the halberd (which I'm assuming, p'raps unjustly, has returned to normal) and takes his head off with it. He did say he would, after all. **
02:16 (1608) Mxyz (enter): 14:16
02:17 (1558) Valarian: excellent
02:17 (1497) Lenny: That was...a long battle.
02:17 (1505) Milla Rell: (So, we can improve our skills immediatly with this?)
02:17 (1558) Valarian: yep
02:17 (1499) G.O.G.M.: nifty
02:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Cool. Well, as you can see, things go a bit slow and rocky in first sessions, but you could also probably see that things sped up a lot once everyone got the hang of it
02:17 (1484) arthurtuxedo: Usually battles go roughly 3 times that fast.
02:18 (1558) Valarian: have fewer people though
02:18 (1484) arthurtuxedo: I like to start out all my campaigns with a battle. Baptism by fire and all that.
02:18 (1497) gerard_paloma: This is also the largest party I think we've ever had, so that slows things down a bit.
02:18 (1465) Derick: Right, more horseback skill, methinks.
02:18 (1465) Derick: I hearby dub Gustav 'Sir Gustav Jawbreaker'
02:18 (1558) Valarian: i will improve magic next session...
02:19 (1516) Gustav: danke.
02:19 (1505) Milla Rell: I think medic, or bow for me.
02:19 (1484) arthurtuxedo: So see you guys next week. You can spend your 20 XP at your leisure. Anyone who wants to stick around and spectate on the Western campaign is welcome to do so.
02:19 (1497) gerard_paloma: I gotta take a bio break. If I'm not back before anyone leaves, I'll see you next week.
02:19 ** (1465) Derick gives Milla a bow... **
02:20 (1499) G.O.G.M.: Good Gaming all
02:20 (1558) Valarian: oh yeah, dont forget to loot the bodies
02:20 (1505) Milla Rell: Longbow or short?
