Heroica RPG- Quest #67: Nova Tertia

[Flare]

Benji attacks Spitosaurs A and E.

"Hey, are you guys alright? These newts are a bit more dangerous than I previously estimated, although I'm doing fine."

[Scorpiox]

"Me included, this cloak seems to shielding the worst fo the venom. Alright, keep at it, men."

Haldor continues in his pursuit of Spitobastard D, stopping quickly to attack it when the creature turns. Front row.

Alan writhes around weakly, clutching at his face.

Battle Order:

Tarn

Benji

Heckz

Jeaux

Alan

Bors

Haldor

[Rumble Strike]

Bors let out a panicked moan, "Hey guys, I'm really not feeling so good! Don't let me die here!" (does nothing from the back row)

Tarn feels the poison burn his eyes yet again, and tries to clear them. (does nothing from the back row)

[Flare]

OOC: Let Alan use his potion on Bors, and then Bors can attack from the back row Spitosaur C.

Also, is it worth it to remedy Tarn or not? I can cause more damage than him anyways, so maybe its not worth it to waste a turn remedying him?

[Rumble Strike]

"Benji, I can still Counterstrike whilst Blinded, so unless speed is absolutely critical then I do not need a Remedy."

[Capt.JohnPaul]

QM Note: I'll let you guys sort out your strategy, and I'll probably be gone for most of the evening, so I can continue in the morning, or very late tonight maybe.

[Flare]

OoC: No, no, there us no debate, I've been subdued Please roll now while you have a chance!

"Alright Tarn, whatever you think works best." Benji grumbled in acknoledgement.

OoC: I just noticed that you have forgotten my +3 power bonus for the entire battle

[Capt.JohnPaul]

QM Note:Heckz still has to post... shall I go back and subtract 3 health from each spitosaur you hit each time?

[Flare]

OoC: Yeah sure I guess that be OK. Although actually 12 damage per enemy that I hit, because technixally it would be 3x2x2=12.

Also, assume that Heckz will attack Spitosaur C.

[Scorpiox]

OoC: Yeah sure I guess that be OK. Although actually 12 damage per enemy that I hit, because technixally it would be 3x2x2=12.

Also, assume that Heckz will attack Spitosaur C.

Has it been 24 hours yet? And anyway, I believe that that's my responsibility.

Haldor blinks.

"What?"

[Capt.JohnPaul]

QM Note: Sadly, it has not been 24 hours, but I do have the time for the stats: A loses 12. D loses 6. E loses 6. B loses 12. (some were hits, others were crit hits)

[Cutcobra]

Heckz starts coughing blood and turns to Alan "Would you hand me the potion please?" Heckz casts an Ice Spell at Spitosaur E from the back row.

[Scorpiox]

Didn't notice Heckz' low health, sorry.

Haldor retreats back again, making a move to heal Heckz.

[Cutcobra]

"What's a 'D'? Oh, you mean the ugliest one." Heckz casts an Ice Spell at Spito D from the back row instead.

[Flare]

"What's a 'D'? Oh, you mean the ugliest one." Heckz casts an Ice Spell at Spito D from the back row instead.

"I named him Dee, because its spelled similarly to "die", which is what I hope will happen to him very soon. And yes, he's the ugliest one. Although they all look the same. Which means they're all the ugliest ones. But actually that means that they are all equally ugly. But whatever."

Beni gets mooaaarr gold. Jeaux takes damage, as another creature ferociously pounces on him. The swarm if spitosaurs and the poison makes the battle seem lost, until Haldor starts suddenly shaking and mumbling ancient words. His eyes roll over and the blood of a spitosaur comes out of its body, and it flows into each party member, healing them. Tarn and Spitosaur B keep fighting.

[Scorpiox]

Haldor flexes his shoulders and cracks his neck.

"How's that for a hit? Been a long time since that's happened. Since we're all right now, let's hit as hard and fast as we can."

The nord charges headlong into the crowd of lizards, swinging madly at Spitobastard D from the front row.

Alan cowers feebly.

Battle Order:

Tarn

Benji

Jeaux

Heckz

Alan

Bors

Haldor

[joeshmoe554]

OOC: 6 HP doesn't sound right for Spitosaur C, I think the damage would be [(Haldor)9 + (Benji)5 + (Tarn)17 + (Jeaux)7 + (Heckz)10 + (Alan)1 + (Bors)5 = 54], but I haven't seen many battles with shamans so I could very well be wrong. Also Tarn should be at 37 HP since the free hit did no damage, and Heckz should have 11 Ether since he cast a spell.

The automaton felt the lizard bite down on him again. These scaly jerks were starting to get on his nerves. He loaded another round into the hand cannon, these monsters were going down.

Jeaux attacks Spitosaur C from the back row.

[Rumble Strike]

"Jeaux, I am still suffering the effects of the blindening, leave Spitosaur C to my Counterstrike. It should fell him."

[Flare]

Benji repeats.

[joeshmoe554]

"Jeaux, I am still suffering the effects of the blindening, leave Spitosaur C to my Counterstrike. It should fell him."

"I think you may be overestimating your abilities a tad lad."

OOC: Unless blood ritual managed to deal 656 damage last round, Spitosaur C has quite a bit more than 6 HP.

[Rumble Strike]

Tarn shivered, a reaction to the poison still coursing through his veins despite the healing from the Shaman. Or was it the strange automaton calling him "lad"?

"Apologies, Jeaux. I am feeling a little disorientated. Carry on with whatever attack you wish. I will stay in the back row and do nothing, and Bors will do likewise."

[Capt.JohnPaul]

OOC: 6 HP doesn't sound right for Spitosaur C, I think the damage would be [(Haldor)9 + (Benji)5 + (Tarn)17 + (Jeaux)7 + (Heckz)10 + (Alan)1 + (Bors)5 = 54], but I haven't seen many battles with shamans so I could very well be wrong. Also Tarn should be at 37 HP since the free hit did no damage, and Heckz should have 11 Ether since he cast a spell.

QM Note:656? What did I do wrong??? :wacko: :wacko: Hm, must've been something with the place value. Fixed. And Heckz's ether is fixed. And Tarn's health. Sorry all, I must not have copied something right.
