Chaosforge 4e PBF - IC

<< < (38/55) > >>

Malek Deneith:
- The column... No! I tire of this pointless ploy. If you won't give me the scepter I will take it of your cold corpses, along with the Kings favor. Get them!! - the last bit is spoken to the hunting hounds - only it turns out they're not hounds at all you learn, as two wolves the size of a pony lunge at Gosok and Marek.
- "Bortek, you blighted fool!" - the girl... no, a gnome woman dressed in magicians garb shouts in frustration but her companion listens not. Armed with a set of axes that you presume was hidden by the same illusion that hid other dangers, the man sprints around the table, tumbles under the wolf assaulting Marek and strikes at Isirius cutting the kalashtar deeply.
- Laugh at me will you? - Bortek's movements are amazingly swift - you're not given a moment to react as he attacks again, this time making a wide cut that misses Quill only due to her size. Thankfully the axe slows down a bit on Isirius body, giving Marek a moment he needs to duck under the attack as well.

Encounter 2: A Warm Welcome - Initiative, Movement and General Commentary

--- Quote ---Initiative
27 - Dire Wolves
24 - Bortek, Human Barbarian
23 - Marek
19 - Berak
18 - Isirius Thray
17 - Gnome Illusionist
14 - Quill
12 - Gosok Skyborn

Actions
- Dire Wolf 1 moves to F0:O1 and then charges to G2:F3 and bites Gosok for 9 damage (33/42 hp left).
- Gosok gains 3 temporary hit points from Serene Blade.
- Dire Wolf 2 moves to G8:F9 and misses Marek.
- Bortek moves to F10 and charges to G7 hitting Isirius for 15 damage (22/40 hp remaining).
- Bortek spends an action point missing Quill and Marek but hitting Isirius 14 damage (8/40 hp remaining). Isirius is bloodied.

Map Notes
- Both table and the beddings to the right are difficult terrain. Table also provides cover if you're attacking someone on opposite side of it
- Braziers burn with hot, hot fire

Important Notes
I'm going to put any movement/charging for creatures of size large and above in format of <bottom left corner of the token>:<top right corner of the token>. Hopefully that's clear enough but I'm open to suggestions if it's not.

Marek thanks Pelor for the missed attack and aims at Bortek while trying to heal Isirius a little.

Seeing the barbarian charge at Isirius and hurt him badly, Berak grabs Bortek with his mind and hurls him into a corner, trying to hit a wolf on the way and hoping to give Isirius a chance to recover.

Malek Deneith:
Yet again Marek starts the battle by entirely missing his target, and gets a strike with the hilt of the axe to the gut for his trouble. At least he helps a comrade by healing his wounds. Berak has more luck, his attack sends Bortek into the corner, although it only grazes the giant wolf that was in the way. Seconds later a burst of light explodes among the tightly packed group, searing and staggering Quill and Isirius.

New Mechanics Learned

Opportunity Attacks
Using ranged or area attacks while near an enemy or trying to move away from them other than through shift and teleportation (or forced movement) will give them ability to perform an opportunity attack, as Marek learned this turn.

Prone
Prone creatures can only move by crawling, teleporting or being subject to force movement. They have a -2 penalty to attack rolls, and grant combat advantage to enemies attacking them in melee but have a +2 bonus to defenses against ranged attacks. This condition can be ended by spending a move action to stand up.
