Bridge Battle

Kesyn 's gotta take an afk for a little while to appease parents....she won't be long

[Wolftooth ] ((Ticker?))

[Wolftooth ] ((repost)) The path through the dark cave emerges into a larger cavern. A ten foot wide path moves along either side of a narrow chasm, some twenty feet deep, with a river rushing along at the bottom. At the far end is a rope bridge spanning the 20-foot-wide chasm with the river at it's bottom.

[Wolftooth ] ((Ahh, there's the little dino. Good, good. Fortunately I still have all the info and marching order here ... is anyone willing to play Linsida as a stand-in?))

[Razor ] order last i beleive was Dun, Wolf, Ticker and Kaelie, then Lin and Alfred then Razor and Kesy.

[Wolftooth ] ((Dun, Wolf, Ticker, Kaelie, Linsida, Horse (Alfred), Kesyn, and Razor is the order I last had.))

Dunithenail takes one look at the Bridge and to his credit he stops for half a pace to look it over. And then he quite happily steps out into the cavern to cross it. The sword still blazes Hole Light into this place of darkness, ligting him and everyone within twenty feet or so like a beacon. He doesnt do stealthy ;P

Wolftooth is taking it a bit slower than Dun, giving him plenty of room while he searches the ground actively before him ... tracks, traps, pits, snares, mudpuddles, whatever. Wolf doesn't like surprises.

[Wolftooth ] ((*slides my NPC's right in there after Kesyn and before Dun in the posting order* "... please let them have their actions as well." ^_^))

Ticker follows along behind Wolf ...going about the same speed, but not checking over Wolf work. He's too busy looking over the cliff and trying to find the river and all that fun stuff, ...he does look alittle closer at the bridge though, wondering slightly why anyone would put something like that up, .... .... ...

Razor wonders if she can smell anything funny besides Wolf?

Kaelie quietly wishes she had inherited more than just her eyes from her tiefling grandparent. She knew the fiend had been able to pull the darkness around him like a cloak, but she couldn't even see in the total dark. She sighs and shakes her head and keeps an eye open for unpleasant things as she follows along behind the strange lizard creature.

[Razor ] *Lin pauses with Alfred to look at the bridge before them, commig up behind the others. Getting him across will be a chore that much is certain.

Razor wonders if Kes is back or not?

[Dunithenail ] wohoo! The tin can spots something, now what's he going to do about it, will he a) rush blindly forward yelling religious doggerel or will he b) see A) :P

Razor cant check anything out with Dun there and his infernal light!

[Dunithenail ] Its Holy l;ight thankyeverymuch :P

Razor remains by Kesyn's side but out of Duns' oppresive light. Its clearly apparent that she either doest like the light or him. She remains as much in Alfreds shadow as possible, prefering the dark to the light. The bridge wont really be a problem for her, she actually doesnt have to move across it to get to the other side, the distance with in her range to just 'walk' from one shadow to another as long as Dun doesnt obliterate them all together. Her nose twitches at the scents in the air, unwashed bodies as well as dampness.

Razor notes not to her it aint!

[Dunithenail ] Kes is still AFK on AIM >.

[Wolftooth ] ((Dun, wait your turn. I still have NPC actions.))

Dunithenail shuts his mouth then ;P

[Wolftooth ] ((Spot checks for Linsida and Razor. Also, everyone can clearly see another cave opening in the rock wall at the far side of the underground ravine, just across the bridge.))

[Razor ] that was line

[Kesyn ] ((Spot check for me too?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Kesyn, what is your char doing first?))

Ticker has a feeling he's going to need a rope, -_-

Kesyn 's been healed by the rather lavicious cleric, the young avariel's eyes going wide a moment as the warmth trickles from her lips and over her body, dizziness and disorientation gone with the tremulous softness of that gentle little kiss. The tall Elven looking woman, with wings that resemble an eagle's tucked so firmly to her back as to be a feather cloak letting the paranoia of her situation sink in. She hated the dark, she detested caves but Dun's light sheds enough for her keen eyes to work just fine, the fearful woman gripping Razor's mane as she glances about continuously, trying to work out where they are, and where they have been.

[Kesyn ] ((Get's the sinking feeling these di are rigged too))

[Wolftooth ] All of a sudden, no sooner does Dun cross the halfway point of the bridge than it suddenly shudders and the whole thing collapses! Reflex save, Dun. And for everyone, listen checks.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Dammit!))

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, never mind. Thanks, Razor. Don't feel so bad now.))

Ticker could use that rope about now, anyone? hmm?

[Wolftooth ] ((*gasps* Glad you could join us! Raz, can you fill her in on what's been happening and where she is now? I can repost any info you need.))

Linsida 's player apologizes for being so horrably late.

Kesyn 's ears perk, the woman twitching into attention, that bard's voice of hers clear and precise as she speaks in her exotic take on Common "It's a trap!....There's a caster back there..." As she speaks, fingers weave already, a spell being cast a shimmering disk of energy, like a rainbow distilled into a plate that whips out to catch Dun, or at least give him footing to puch himself up a Tensor's floating disk .

[Wolftooth ] Luckily, Dun's quick reflexes allow him to grasp the underlying ropes of the bridge as they slacken, swinging across to impact with the steep walls of the far side of the stream which runs under the bridge before dropping into two feet deep water below.

[Wolftooth ] ((Kesyn, can you hold that action? We're still in the surprise round, effectively ...))

[Wolftooth ] ((3 damage, Dun, from wall impact.))

[Kesyn ] ((Whatever, sure...Can we just make it clear and move on then, right now I'm confused as hell))

[Wolftooth ] At the same time as the bridge collapses, a handful of figures rush out of the cave opening on the far side of the stream, armed and ready to fight. Three are orcs, and one looks much larger, stronger, and dumber ... but he's got a really really long spear. They stop just at the far side of the bank, spreading out slightly with two on either side of the ogre and one moving a bit further down the ledge downstream. So, three orcs and one ogre. There we are. Roll initiative, everybody.))

[Wolftooth ] ((o.O!!!!!))

Razor 's lost Wolf, last thing she had was you telling her to tell Lin what was going on.

Ticker awwws and huggles Kae, poor girl, ...has his dice, ;)

Kaelie 's gonna stick a dagger in Ticker's ribs for snatching her dice :p

[Wolftooth ] ((Sorry everybody ... what was I unclear about? Dun moved across the bridge, everybody else moved up to where the bridge started but not onto it, and then the bridge collapses when Dun gets halfway across, dumping him into the shallow stream twenty feet below. The stream divides two walkways on either side of the chasm, one of which most of you are standing on, and the other three orcs and an ogre are now standing on ready to attack you all.))

Kaelie is still curious what that listen check was for

Dunithenail wasnt certain he had crossed the bridge. he did spot soemthing, he may be full of religious crap, but he's nto stupid. But it's neither here nor there :)

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, Wolftooth (me) is first, followed by Ticker. I'll let the rest of you know when you'll be next to let you prepare. If I didn't respond to you about the listen check, than you didn't hear anything.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Any other questions before we leap into things? Please ask now.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Dun, you didn't see what you saw until you were halfway across, so it shouldn't matter.))

[Wolftooth ] Oh, one more question. Light sources? Dun's down below, so you won't get too much light from him unless you're standing in the stream with him.

[Dunithenail ] Are the orcs acting beyond rushing out? Are we waiting for me to post again?

Linsida coughs lightly to Wolf to check her sheet. ;)

[Wolftooth ] ((You'll need to be more specific, Linsida. What am I looking for?))

[Linsida ] ((One Everburning Torch))

[Wolftooth ] ((Wolftooth beat everybody for initiative, so he gets to act first. Followed by Ticker. ANd yes, the orcs and whatnot all rushed out of the cave on the far side to take their places across the stream from you all. That's all they were able to do during the surprise round.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, light is taken care of. I'm going to go ahead with Wolf's move now. Here we go!))

Wolftooth drops his axes on the ground, seeing as there is no immediate way for him to reach the orcs on the far side, drawing his bow from his back (move action). He quickly pulls an arrow and fires at the orc that is most upstream.

[Wolftooth ] The orc is hit, and drops to the ground.

[Wolftooth ] ((Ticker, your action. After him is Kesyn.))

Ticker squeaks and slides his bow off his shoulders. He glances over at the other cliff and just shrugs as he picks the nearest target. He takes an arrow out, ...aim and shoots at the closest orc to him.

[Wolftooth ] ((Ogre is the closest. Still want to hit an orc?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Bleh ... never mind.))

[Wolftooth ] ((GO ahead and roll damage with your attacks please, that will save me time.))

Ticker Rarr!s ...ph34r the mighty little lizard shooting practice arrows, -_-

[Wolftooth ] Ticker's arrow grazes the ogre's side, not seeming to cause too much damage. It's still up, and not looking happy now. ((Kesyn, go ahead with your action. Next is the bad guys!))

[Wolftooth ] ((Orc's side ... orc! Grumble.))

[Ticker ] (Whichever, =P)

Ticker also reminds himself he has Dodge and to use it next round, -_-

[Wolftooth ] ((THis is combat. Clarity is essential. DOn't hesitate to ask me anything, I have you guys all on a combat map over here with miniatures. Can't say I'm not thorough.))

Kesyn is still under the impression one of them is a spellcaster, after what she heard, so the tall Avariel starts to cast a Magic Missile but she doesn't cast it at the moment, she's holding the spell waiting for one of them to make a movement she deems aggressive, the Ogre especially. Seeking to distract them at that time.

Razor slips from beneath Kesyn's hold, vanishing between one moment and the next. She prowls on the other side, one with the shadows for a moment, merely a darker shape moving amoung the lighter. Crouching she springs forward towards the closest Orc's back, meaning to send him down into the casim (and hopefully not end up there herself.or end up as one of the parties targets!!!)

Ticker 'll use his dodge od the Orge, Duh, he wouldnt be a happy Dino if he get impaled, -_-

[Wolftooth ] Kesyn doesn't have to wait long, as the orcs and ogre quickly attack! The orcs draw back and let their javelins fly, attacking various people on the far side of the chasm. The ogre proceeds to brandish his spear against Dunithenail who is down in the pit. And yes, it can reach him when he's twenty feet down below. It's an ogre longspear, after all.

[Razor ] - pounce is 2 rakes included =P

[Wolftooth ] ((Hang on, Razor ... the orces want to go too! ANd they beat your init, unfortunately. Tell you what, I'll go ahead and let you go first this round.))

Razor normally posts after Kesyn Wolf, she hadn't posted yet.

Razor 'll just vanish now and then just use her going for him for her next

[Wolftooth ] ((We're going by initiative order now, Raz. That's why I had you all roll. But you're after the orcs on initiative anyway, so it's no biggie.))

Dunithenail is against the wall, not really certain how he ended up there. When the ogre's pike comes down at him he abandons the rope, gripping the pike. Now the ogre will either have to pull him up to fight, abandon the pike entirely or be pulled in by the heavy weight currently at the end

[Dunithenail ] Okay, can we get the order down in a leetle list? It's hella early over here and you're gonna need to smack me over the head with it :) and I';ll jst repost that one in the appropriate place :)

Razor has the sudden image of Dun as a metal tea bag and the Ogre dipping him into the stream =P

[Wolftooth ] ((*blinks* Lemme guess ... you guys aren't used to fighting by the books, are you? o.O My order is as follows: Wolf, Ticker, Kesyn, Orcs, Razor, Linsida, Dun, and Kaelie.))

[Dunithenail ] Religious nutter tea ;)

[Dunithenail ] okies, that works for me, my post will be postponed then :)

Razor puts her post after the one Wolf did for them then.

Linsida is used to it Wolf, hence why she shut up for a while.

[Wolftooth ] ((Razor, I need you to make an opposed grapple check for your pouncing maneuver.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Sorry, all ... I'll go ahead really quick and finish the orcs attacks.))

[Wolftooth ] A javelin misses Wolfie and Ticker, but one hits Kaelie on the far side for 4 points of damage. Now for the ogre spear ...

[Wolftooth ] ((*smacks forehead*)) Crud ... the spear gets embedded in the thick sludge at the bottom of the stream and is now stuck. The ogre snarls, giving it a quick tug, but it's no use.

[Razor ] Razor slips from beneath Kesyn's hold, vanishing between one moment and the next. She prowls on the other side, one with the shadows for a moment, merely a darker shape moving amoung the lighter. Crouching she springs forward towards the closest Orc's back, meaning to send him down into the casim (and hopefully not end up there herself.or end up as one of the parties targets!!!)

[Wolftooth ] Also note ... two javelins were thrown from the two orcs still standing. A third one came from deeper into the cave where it's still too dark to see ... for some.

[Wolftooth ] ((Grapple check, Razor.))

[Kesyn ] ((Held action....on the Orc))

[Kesyn ] ((So 5 damage))

[Wolftooth ] ((Which orc, Kesyn? The one injured by Ticker's arrow, or the fresh one?))

[Kesyn ] ((Orc even....She 'll have the Ogre cause he looks more dangerous))

Ticker killed that Orc and you know it! you just dont want to give him the exp! ;)

[Wolftooth ] 5 damage to the ogre, and now he really isn't happy!

[Razor ] actually thats a +8 due to form Wolf..

[Wolftooth ] Razor comes in from behind with a pounce that the orc didn't even see coming, quickly toppling into the stream with a mortal scream. Does Razor accompany him?

Razor actually had to go look that up.

Razor also gave him 11 damage from claws Wolf.

[Wolftooth ] Then the orc topples lifelessly into the stream below. Splash! ((Linsida is next, followed by Dun!))

Dunithenail apologises for jumping the gun again >.

[Wolftooth ] ((No problem, Dun.))

Wolftooth thinks he should have asked for bigger orcs ... o.O

Linsida sighs alittle and walks alittle more forward to see her allies. She smiles slides the top of her robe down just enough to expose her well formed cleavage and chants a few words. "Now concider yourselves blessed" as she winks.

Razor 's going over how she rolls with Ticker Wolf, she's not adding all her bonus' it turns out.

[Linsida ] ((+1 to attacks and saving throws to anyone friendly within 50 feet))

[Wolftooth ] ((I have no idea what your bonuses are, Razor, and never really have. *shrugs*))

Razor will send them tonight Wolf..she keeps forgetting to add str bonus to damage.

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, you're all blessed. Dun? You're up. Kaelie is next.))

[Linsida ] (+1 morale bonus if anyone needs to worry about it))

Dunithenail now has a go at battering the ogre with the but end of his own spear, or failing that just tries to pull him into the stream, either way works for him. He's achieveing nothing down here but lighting up this stream

[Wolftooth ] ((What's the reach of that spear, Dun?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Longspears have a reach of 10 feet ... most reach weapons for medium sized characters do.))

[Dunithenail ] Pass, itls the ogre's spear? Twenty feet? Hewas still holding the other end last time I checked :)

[Wolftooth ] ((The ogre's spear is longer because he's larger, having a reach of twenty feet. And what are you doing with its spear now? Say again?))

[Razor ] -he's trying to smack the Ogre iwth the end of the spear Wolf, using it being stuck in the much and wiggling it back and forth i think

[Dunithenail ] Trying to batter him with it or just plain pull him into the stream by pushing away from the wall. Yeah, what Razor said :)

[Wolftooth ] ((Hmmm ... make a melee attack roll to oppose the ogre's ...))

[Dunithenail ] Using strength as an adder?

[Wolftooth ] (((Yes. 1d20+base attack bonus+strength bonus+whatever else applies. Bless applies, so add +1))

[Dunithenail ] 18 then :)

[Wolftooth ] ((Good enough for me. Roll 1d4.))

[Wolftooth ] Dunithenail yanks on the spear, effectively yanking it out of the ogre's hands and smacking him in the face with its end for two points of damage and leaving the spear in Dunithenail's grip. "Heeyyyy!!!" the ogre growls, glaring down at Dun.

[Wolftooth ] ((Kaelie, your go. Wolf is next.))

Kaelie whistled appreciatively when Wolf felled the orc with one shot, but her appreciation is cut a little short when they let loose thier javelins. She grunts in suprise when one of them slams home into her, and she curses lividly, her eyes watering from the pain, as she pulls the thing out of her and retreats back into the passage.

[Wolftooth ] ((What's your move, Kaelie? You should be able to leave the cavern entirely.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Move rate, sorry.))

[Kaelie ] 30ft, but I don't intend to leave the cavern.. just getting out of the way seeing as I can't do much of anything.. unless you thing taunting them helps :p

[Wolftooth ] ((I'll put you just outside the cave entrance. How's that?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Cavern exit, rather.))

[Kaelie ] Works for me

Ticker thinks Tuanting falls under the Bluff skill as a use, ;)

[Wolftooth ] ((You still have enough for an action. Would you like to fire a shot or some such?))

[Kaelie ] The only weapon I have is a rapier wolf.. and I don't think throwing it at them would do any good ;)

[Wolftooth ] ((Got it. Wolf's turn, followed by Ticker.))

Wolftooth just keeps firing arrows, moving on to the next orc which was hit by Ticker earlier.

[Wolftooth ] ((Frickin A! What happened to all those nat 20's?!))

Ticker grumbles slightly at his last shot just grazing that Orc, he pulls out another arrow and aims again, abit more carefuly this time,.....

[Wolftooth ] ((Hang on ... resolving a fumble ...))

Razor has a bad feeling she just got shot

[Wolftooth ] Dun just got pegged by one of Wolftooth's arrows for 3 damage. Oops.

Ticker notes least it wasnt him, he already killed his party member for the day in the game this morning, =P

[Dunithenail ] Down in teh stream? Can Wolf even see him down twenty feet?

[Wolftooth ] This time the arrow sticks, causing a bit more injury, but the orc is still up. ((Kesyn, your go. The orcs go next.))

[Razor ] it was a fumble Dun, doesnt matter if he can see you, just matters if he can hit you...

[Wolftooth ] ((Doesn't matter, Dun. Wolf fumbled and did a wild freak shot, the arrow veering off and striking you. 20 hits your AC and everything.))

[Kesyn ] ((Wolf--- Surely it wouldn't get through his armour at that angle? It'd be more like a drop... *Raised brow*))

[Wolftooth ] ((Even plate armor isn't invincible. In fact, one of the weaker points is just above the neck, I hear. That would be a perfect angle to hit. But that's all metagame. A 20 hits Dun's AC, that's all I need to know. Go ahead, Kes.))

[Wolftooth ] ((You know, if Wolftooth wasn't blessed right now, that arrow would have bounced off ... ironic.))

Kesyn 's got her sights set on the Ogre, hell he's the mean looking guy and ugly should never win, let alone Evil, Evil is one thing, but ugly and evil is another, so as she starts to sing, her voice pure and sweet as she unleashes an arrow towards the big brute "And low, how sweet the angels voice rose above the throng, and felled the hoardes of evil each and everyone..."

[Wolftooth ] ((Great! Damage?))

[Wolftooth ] Kesyn's arrow sings through the air, striking the ogre's shoulder and lodging there. This ogre is definitely not having his day ... ((The orcs go next, followed by Razor.))

[Razor ] Kesyn wins the teddy bear!

[Wolftooth ] The remaining orcs all throw their javelins, now bending their efforts towards the two spellcasters.

[Wolftooth ] ((*laughs*))

[Wolftooth ] Linsida, the javelin strikes you for 7 damage. Kesyn? ... yeah, hang on while I resolve another fumble.

[Wolftooth ] The orc's javelin catches on its sleeve once thrown, its velocity great enough to topple him down into the pit.

[Wolftooth ] Night night from falling damage, mister orc.

[Wolftooth ] ((Still have one orc hidden in the cave, and the unhappy ogre.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Razor is up, followed by Linsida.))

Razor 's feeling bad, very very bad...Lineing up with Mr. Ogre she goes for him full out..if he happens to take out Dun on the way down..all the better.

[Wolftooth ] ((*blinks* Is Razor going to try to push the ogre off the edge? If not, what is she doing?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Oh! The Ogre didn't go!))

[Razor ] yesssss...very uptight kitty...do Ogre

[Wolftooth ] The ogre reaches out and grabs for his spear, which is still standing mostly upright in the muck. Dun, do you still have hold of said spear?

Razor can see the Ogre pole vaulting now =P

[Wolftooth ] Wait, forget that ... there's a kitty! Ogre abandons his spear, pulls out a massive cudgel about the size of a small tree, steps closer and lets Razor have it!

[Wolftooth ] Ogre swings, and misses, leaving a large crack in the ground just a foot or two away from her.

Razor has uncanny dodge Wolf. Tickers looking up things for her as she is players bookless currently.

[Wolftooth ] ((Go for it Razor! Linsida is next. And by the way, the ogre is taking up the entire walkway, leaving no way for Razor to get behind it and push it in.))

[Razor ] he's a large creature?

[Wolftooth ] ((Yup. He's large and in charge.))

[Razor ] ya know..all that fricking bonus and i get that????

[Razor ] least it wasnt a 1!

[Wolftooth ] ((+14?! 0.0))

Dunithenail points and laughs at Razor!

[Wolftooth ] ((I disbelieve?))

Ticker nudges Raz, that should be a +11

[Razor ] plus Lin's bless and the size..I wasnt adding in my Str stuff before Wolf...only have it in this form

[Razor ] 13 actually...

[Wolftooth ] ((Size bonuses are all accounted for, no need for you to add them.))

[Razor ] (wasnt paying attention when you mentioned that Wolf, sorries.)

[Wolftooth ] ((So it's a +13? SO that last roll is a 15?))

[Razor ] umm...yeah...

[Wolftooth ] ((An 18 doesn't happen to hit you, does it Raz?))

[Wolftooth ] ((*waits on tiptoe*))

[Wolftooth ] ((Wait, nevermind.))

[Wolftooth ] Razor takes a 5-foot-step towards the ogre, attackes, and misses.

[Wolftooth ] ((Since you only took a 5-ft step, the ogre doesn't get its attack of op. (reach) But you do get your full attack, Razor.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Linsida, go ahead and start with your action, just so we keep things moving. Sorry for all the background chatter ...))

Linsida yelps in pain as she takes a spear right to the thigh, she yanks it out and screams as the weapon's removed. "Bastard got one of my best pair blooded, I'll KILL him." As she pulls up her crossbow and take aim at the orc who threw that spear.

[Wolftooth ] ((Did you take your full attack, Raz? If not, you're entitled.))

[Ticker ] yup/TO Wolftooth

[Wolftooth ] ((That orc is in the darkness, Linsida. You'll need to move closer to see him, and he'll have some concealment likely.))

Razor 's full attack would be raking him with claws if she hit, you said she didnt

Linsida isn't in the thinking mood, she's in the slaying mood, what's the concelment type?

[Wolftooth ] ((Dun, be ready. You're after Linsida (and Raz, if she'd like to take the rest of her attacks? I only saw you make one attack roll, Raz. Would you like to take the other? Perhaps a bite? I think that's what most kitties get is a claw/claw/bite attack ...))

[Wolftooth ] ((I'll say 3/4 concealment?))

[Wolftooth ] ((roll bite damage. Icky.))

[Wolftooth ] Linsida fires into the darkness, her bolt clattering across the stone.

Dunithenail grips hold of the spear, making sure it's deeply embedded and stable before he basically uses it as a climbing rope. He wants a word with whoever's arrow is stuck in his shoulder and wants a word with the orcs about the safety of their stupid bridge

[Wolftooth ] The ogre staggers as Razor locks onto his leg for a moment, but he shakes her loose, leaving a sizable wound there. The ogre seems to stagger a bit as he puts both feet down ... not looking too good at all.

Razor forgot something Wolf, just realizes..she cant take the bless bonus from Lin.

[Wolftooth ] ((The spear wobbles too much in the muck, Dun. It won't stay upright for you to climb.))

Razor goes skidding across the floor after being shook off, her mouth full of blood which drips down from her jaws to the floor as she lays her ears back and hisses

Dunithenail kinda hangs around then till someone coughs up a rope or a handy bridge :)

[Wolftooth ] ((Sorry, Dun. We'll get you out soon, unless you'd like to try climbing straight out? Next is Kaelie, followed by Wolf.))

Razor wants to drop the Ogre on Dun

[Wolftooth ] ((Go Kaelie go ... *cheers you on* Throw that rapier ...))

Kaelie stays were she is back at the cavern's entrance, glowering and irritated that she can't do much else.

Wolftooth urks and regains his footing after that last wild shot, glancing down at the glowy knight down below to see his arrow sticking out. Making a note of such, he wastes no time in firing at the remaining orc (which he can see, thank you darkvision).

Wolftooth 's shot whizzes through the air, striking an unseen opponent right in the chest, who growls and falls lifeless on the darkened cave floor.

[Wolftooth ] ((TIcker, you're up. Next is Kesyn.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, no more orcs are left ... just one hella wounded ogre.))

Wolftooth keeps forgetting he has point blank shot ... oh well.

Razor wonders what Ogre tastes like?

[Kaelie ] ((I'm gonna go with day old sweat ;) ))

[Wolftooth ] ((At first, it's rather foul. But once you get past that, it's actually pretty tough and meaty.))

[Wolftooth ] ((C'mon, Ticker, we're almost finished! Roll a nat 20 for me!))

Ticker grabs an arrow, aims slightly and shoots at the Orge, chittering slightly, ....figuring he should be able to hit the bigger target easy enuff,

Ticker had to run afk, he just got back, *atts another +1 for that bless* -__

[Wolftooth ] The shot bounces off the ogre's tough hide and hits the wall, shattering.

[Wolftooth ] ((Not even with bless. Kesyn?))

[Wolftooth ] ((The ogre goes after Kesyn ...))

Ticker just started tpying as soon as he hit enter, he didnt even look to see what he got, =P

Dunithenail thought Kesyn was on the other side of the stream o.O

[Wolftooth ] ((no no no ... the ogre's turn comes after Kesyn's turn.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Sorry, poor wording.))

Kesyn 's still singing, her voice pure sweet and true, a Maiden singing to the Ladies and gentlemen of Court it could be, schooled to carry, a vicious look in her eyes though, her people were warriors they'd had to be and this frail woman was no exception, feeble and meek mayhaps but in a fight for life she was not empyt handed "And so it rained from above the fiery hands of death from the Gods, on the hock or on the heel none know the blissful reel of wind, the feeling that it is on the wing..."

[Wolftooth ] Again, the ogre's armor repels the shot, falling harmlessly to the ground nearby. And now it gets its revenge on the only target it can ... Razor. He raises his club, and swings!

Razor 's AC is 10+4 so you know Wolf.

[Wolftooth ] Swings and misses, right?

[Wolftooth ] ((I had you at 15, Razor. You sure it's 14?))

[Razor ] umm...think so, have a +4 racial..dont have them all added together.

[Wolftooth ] ((I only ask you because you really don't want this blow to connect ...))

[Linsida ] ((what about dex?))

[Wolftooth ] ((I assume there's some dex in there somewhere, so it's probably higher than 14. You really should get this figured out. Ticker, can you help her sometime? Or I will, maybe. The ogre missed. Razor's turn, then Linsida.))

Razor has improved dodge Wolf, dont know if that might add to it or not...Dex is 17+2 in this form.

Razor needs Ticker to call her at work tonight after 1am so they can work on it AGAIN

[Wolftooth ] ((We can work it out later, Raz. And 17 dex would give you a +3.))

Razor goes for him again, getting smacked with a club is not her idea of fun, she aims higher this time as he's bent over with his club

[Wolftooth ] ((Hit. Roll damage? And again, Razor may take a full claw/claw/bite attack.))

[Razor ] claws then bites

[Wolftooth ] ((Ummm .... I'll take the first roll? One damage roll per attack roll, please.))

[Razor ] poucnce + both raking..which is both claws, so will roll again to bite or he dead from the 16 damage?

[Wolftooth ] Razor mauls the ogre's thigh, her claws sinking in deep. The ogre grunts in pain, clutching at the wound with eyes clenched before sinking slowly to the floor and not moving.

[Wolftooth ] ((You only get a pounce if you charge, and to do that you must be at least ten feet away from your target.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Doesn't matter, though ... one claw attack was enough to take the ogre down. No sense arguing over semantics at this point, combat is over. Congrats, guys! ^_^))

Linsida winces as she sees the last thing go down and looks about for anyone more hurt then she is, and starts walking toward Kaelie.

[Ticker ] (full att for a cat is bite + claw+claw

[Wolftooth ] ((We can keep going in initiative order, or resume traditional alphabetical user list order?))

Razor doesnt maul him much, moving stealthy to the edge where the Ogre's spear sticks up over the edge.

Ticker smacks his damn laggy comp, -_-

[Linsida ] I vote alpha.

[Wolftooth ] ((I vote alpha too.))

Razor finds it amuseing that none of them likely realize yet she over there, just a shape moving for those w/low light vision heheehe.

Wolftooth growls one last time at the foul creatures across the stream before setting his bow aside and dropping his pack to fish through it. Rope is required, and quickly. Leave the healing to the healers. And then he blinks, thinking he sees something or someone still moving on the far side ...

Kaelie goes with whatever works for everybody else

Dunithenail That's not what you said about NH's body yesterday, Ticker :P::::::::

[Wolftooth ] Nope. Probably nothing. He keeps fishing.

Razor 's gonna get shot, she can see it now =P

Ticker was only going to use it to HOLD the damn door open! =P

[Wolftooth ] ((Dun? Go ahead. Ticker, you're entitled to an action also, seeing as I skipped you.))

Dunithenail is holding a pole he cant use to get out with and doesnt actually have equipment, he's doing diddly squat bar lighting up the stream till someone comes up with a cunning plan to get him back out again :P

Ticker waits for Wolf to comeup with some rope so he can ste__err fly it over to the otherside and tie ot off, ...he chitters quietly as he watchs the other side, ....and glances down at Dun everynow and thing, ...almost snickering at times,

Kaelie resheaths her rapier, and just waits for Linsida.

[Wolftooth ] ((Razor, did you want to roll hide skill? I guess it's your call who spots you over there or if at all.))

Razor 's not hiding..she's going to try and do bad things to Dun *EG*

Ticker sees the kitty then, ...oooOOohh... O_O

Dunithenail thinks he may have killed Razor with a whisper *chuckles*

[Wolftooth ] ((Kesyn? You're up.))

Kesyn 's going with her earlier aborted plan, a little silvered rainbow disk flittering down the little divet to aid the Dun up, it can carry his weight, and will provide a nice little seat for him "Just sit on it and hold on, my friend..." Not often you'll hear that from a lady...

[Wolftooth ] ((Have you read the spell description for that, Kesyn? There's something you may have missed.))

[Kesyn ] ((Semantic...Again...*Facepalms* Forget it...She'll just tie a rope off and mage hand it down to him...Wharever...Can we just get moving cause so far we've fone nothing in over 3 hours.))

Linsida smiles tightly as she walks over to Kaelie, and shakes her head. "How did we the ones in the back get hit with spears and others not?" as winces alittle as she moves down to take a closer look at the wound on Kaelie. "Oh this isn't so bad, just needs alittle proper distration." as she slowly stands straight up, locking her eyes on to Kaelie's. "I have just the thing." as she moves her hands around Kaelie's waist and pulls her in for a good second or two kiss. Before pulling away and winking "See pain's gone isn't it?"

Razor 's spotted by Ticker but doest really care, after peering over edge a moment. She comes back soon enough..with the Ogre's club which she promptly shoves over the side at him right beside the spear thats imbedded in the muck. The light coming up from him below increases the shadows on her side of the ravine, making just her eyes glow errily for a moment as she pushes the club over the edge at him and that damniable light of his.

[Kesyn ] ((And if we're being semantic..she could fly down there..have it follow and fly up again..That better?))

[Wolftooth ] ((Okay, fine. Just trying to do my job, that's all. I don't mean or want to hold you guys up any more than necessary, but I guess I'll just shut up since I'm not helping and it's really not that important.))

[Dunithenail ] The exact mechnics of gettin the tincan back out of the hole arent vital to the whole, surely? As long as it's done :)

[Wolftooth ] ((Agreed.))

[Kesyn ] ((The rules should be a guide, not a commandment...This is just slow for no reason, and I know it's hard to DM online...But there have been 6 people sat around doing not alot for hours))

[Wolftooth ] ((I agree, Kesyn. Perhaps I got a bit carried away, for whatever reason. And I do apologize about the combat, if you all didn't seem to enjoy. I tried to keep things as quick as possible.))

[Wolftooth ] ((Go, Ticker?))

Ticker thinks he missed your post? he was waiting on a rope, O_o

Dunithenail is paying attention to Kesyn and not really to whatever happens above him. He nods in agreemtn, just wanting till everything's stable. he doesnt much like magic, but if it gets him out of this cold water he;d ride a Hellhound out of here. WHich all means that he doesnt see the club at all, a satisfying clang resounding from the chasm before he looks up. His voice is a little strained............ "Bless you child, for your playfulness." Bloody uppity cat

Razor is going to intervein for a moment. Different people have different styles. Her's move faster because she started out DMing on line and is use to it. She has trouble DMing table top which Wolf is more use to and can likely run circles around her with it. Please be patient and work with him not against him so things run as smoothly as possible.

[Razor ] =this has been a public service announcement =P

Wolftooth continues to grumble, at last emerging from his pack with 50 feet of sturdy rope. Something in orcish which vaguely confirms his reasons for letting a certain shiny gung-ho go first. He does not hand the rope to Ticker just yet, moving for one of the bridge posts to tie his rope to it securely ... but then sees that Kesyn is also attempting to get Dun out and just watches or offers assistance as best he can.

Wolftooth agrees with Razor heartily, and will try to be less rules-lawyer and more generalist like he used to be before his last RP group ruined him. *sighs*

Ticker chitters slightly and follows Wolf, he paws slightly at the rope after Wold ties it to the post, ....and Waits, ...Kesy trying to help or not, another rope/hand is always useful,

Kesyn just doesn't wanna have to rule lawyer back, Wolfhon, it just gets bogged down...Now...let's get going ...We can assume that Dun got outta the hole...with three people to help =P

Razor seems to grin down at him, not a nice grin, but a 'I'm going to have you for lunch one day' grin. She starts batting at the Ogre's spear with her paw to thump it against him repeatedly until Kes can get to him.

Kaelie 's eyes widen in suprise, but overall the experiance wasn't unpleasant. Not to mention the painreleaving after affects helped to lighten her mood a little. "Thanks," she smiles slightly, but frowns after a second. "What about you? That wasn't exactly a kitten scratch you have."

[Wolftooth ] ((Agreed. Dun, you're up. Do we even want to worry about getting everybody across, or is that assumed also? And what about loot?))

Razor wants to know how the others get across? Kesy flying them over..then there is Alfred to deal with...

Kaelie is willing to search her little heart out once she's across ^.^

[Wolftooth ] ((Reminder, two orcish bodies are down below in the stream.))

Kesyn 's going to look at how the bridge is broken...

Dunithenail certainly isnt eating them :P

Kesyn , personally, doesn't care about smelly, dead, wet Orc bodies...She's above such barbary...the Humans can do that

Razor eventually stops tossing things down at Dun and goes about snacking on the Orge or mayhaps one of the fallen Orc's.

[Wolftooth ] As Kesyn looks over the remains of the bridge, she can see that nothing is really broken at all. In fact, nothing was really attached. The rope is still in one piece, and a fine piece of rope it is. The boards are all intact. In fact, it looks as if the bridge was never connected in the first place.

Razor is not above eating when she's able to Dun =P

Wolftooth calls out to the others. "Who has more rope? We need another, there." He points now to the other posts on the far side of the stream. Apparently his idea is simply to climb down one side and up the other?

Linsida smiles at Kaelie, "Oh aren't you the sweetest thing" as she takes Kaelie's hands and places them around her waist. "You tr,." as she giggles alittle.

Kesyn 's looking then, in that case, for anything to shore the bridge and connect it up...Seems to make most sense as she doesn't feel like carrying horseflesh and getting her feathers in a twist

Linsida forgot roll the hit points for the cure spell on Kaelie so she gets 6.

Dunithenail looks up at the cat for a while. Seemingly challenging her to get through this righteous armour, Sides. He's still holding the sword and it;s still blazing holy light like a lighthouse. It;s not long before he's up on the other side again, taking a look at the problem

[Razor ] Dun on the same side with Razor or the other side with the others?

[Wolftooth ] The rope at the bottom which was used for the bridge seems to be long enough to reach from one end of the chasm and back again, with a little to spare. Kesyn, can you make an intelligence check for me or something?

[Dunithenail ] Oh yeah, and looking for teh owner of the arrow too, so's he can "return! it :P Depends, Razor, Kesyn's call on that one, she ferried him :)

[Kesyn ] ((As we're moving forwards, not backwards....He's on the same side as the Cat))

[Kesyn ] ((Knowlege Engineering do, Wolf?))

[Dunithenail ] uh oh >.

Wolftooth blinks, watching Kesyn's magical platform ferry the knight along with mild curiousity and perhaps a little distrust. He wouldn't seem to have seen much of magic in his simple life. Just the magic of the wilds.

[Wolftooth ] ((That would work perfectly, Kes.))

Ticker glances up at Wolf and shakes his head slightly, he chitters again and just jumps over the side of the cliff, his arms and wings spreading out as he catchs the air a short pump or two and he's cleared the other ledge and starts to land on the other side, ...he'll let the ones that need to get across worry about the bridge.

Kesyn kills her di...and goes back to preening her feathers like the dumb blonde she seems to be

Kaelie plants one on Linsida with a saucy little nip thrown in just for the hell of it.

Ticker blinks! his GF is kissing another women! O_O ....kinky, ;)

Kesyn taps her brow and mutters softly in Orcish...a few words before she looks up at the party "What is the opposite of Release?"

[Wolftooth ] ((*hides his face and chuckles*))

Razor 's not to keen on having Dun at that blasted light on this side with her, hissing constantly at him, blood dripping from her mouth as she tears hunks of flesh from the one carcus, crouching low to keep as much of her body in the dead orc's shadow as possible. She flips out every time he gets close with his glowing holyness, her adjatation growing by leaps and bounds as she latches on to the orc carcuss and starts to drag him bodily to one side of the ledge to darker shadows.

Linsida smiles at Kaelie, as she pulls away and points to her leg. "See just alittle bruse now, you do a very good job of learning. So now I think we can move on." as she winks at Kaelie and walks over to the rest of the group, and over hears Kesyn, "Isn't it hold?"

Wolftooth ponders for a moment before answering the avariel's question, hearing her Orcish and understanding it perfectly. "Grasp. Or if you prefer in orcish, glinsh ." No sooner does he speak this word than the rope seems to come alive! One end of it moves through the muck, water dripping down from it as it snakes its way up the cliff and ties itself back to one of the bridge posts on the far side. Wolftooth just watches the whole thing with eyes wide, looking completely stupified.

Dunithenail thinks about it a moment and then his voice booms out the right word for Kesyn, trying a couple of them, "Connect, Tie, Fasten...." And a few others. Seems the tincan speaks orc as well. He mostly ignores Razor, leaving her to her own devices, but to his credit he's using the sword to light up the streat and chasm, a wide dark shadow behind him

[Wolftooth ] ((Kesyn, Bardly lore check?))

Kesyn nods, satisfied with the little magic trick perform, looking nothing but mildly interested "Hmm.." taloned finger tapping to her cherubim lips "Clever...Yes...Well, Shalll we go?" A word to the rest of the party

Kesyn really thinks these di are rigged

[Wolftooth ] ((*facepalms*))

Razor thinks you should just let her have it Wolf, the dice are against us today

Ticker looks around for whatever bodys are left to loot,.......

Dunithenail steals Ticker's stolen di, giving them back to Kesyn with a little blessing and returning Ticker's dice with a corresponding curse ;P

[Razor ] its when you add the + that it seems to belch.

Ticker so Hates you Dun,..... -_-

Razor looks at Dun's back, temptation is really really great right now just to run and shove him down the casim..its overwhelming almost.

Dunithenail has nboticed that as well o.O mebbe it just doesnt like the adder o.O

[Dunithenail ] That;s not what you said last night Travis *snifflesob*

Linsida nods to Kesyn and the rest of the group as she takes Alfred by the raines and starts to lead him over after everyone else has gone across.

Ticker was Drunk an__*coughs* Shush you@

[Wolftooth ] ((Among all the bodies, you can find enough to give each player 3 gp. Also, in the back cave are 20 spare javelins, with 11 more on the orcs persons. There are also 4 falchions and 4 suits of armor.))

Razor rolled over her wisdom so she can?

[Wolftooth ] ((Four suits of studded leather, to clarify what the orcs were wearing.))

Dunithenail will just have to bless her and lay hands on her for any shenanigans :P

[Wolftooth ] ((Don't look at me, Razor. I'm just the GM. *shrugs*))

Wolftooth sees that there is a rope down one side and up the other, so proceeds to climb down, walk over, and climb up to the other side.

Razor needs a 20 to hit him she thinks..hehehee

Razor gives in to temptation, going for his back as she watches the others, staying in his elongated shadow....

Razor wants to knock off his helmet actually =P

Ticker thinks Raz is just evil in the morning, O_o

[Ticker ] (this is what? the 2nd game when its about over that your attacking a prty member? =P)

Razor misses....damn it..going skidding past him and into the light

[Dunithenail ] Reflex save :P

[Razor ] or he smacks her silly

[Wolftooth ] ((Ummm ... I'm tempted to call it a night, guys. I don't think I'm doing that great of a job here, and am not really enjoying things. Tell the truth, I was fighting a headache when I started all this. Besides, I think most of us are rather lost to the situation at this point.))

Kaelie 's back from afk land.. had to put a log on the fire.. turned out the fire died'nd she had to built one from scratch.. >.>

Dunithenail turns just in time to see the kitty, and just manages to remove his sword out of the way. Course it means she gets the full blast of that bliding light as she comes past him. For once he's simply stunned into silence though, just watching

[Razor ] oks, we meet up next week then.

[Razor ] oks, we meet up next week then.
