Group - A

opposed attack roll

Rolled 1d20+7 : 8 + 7, total 15

 
The pale inquisitor lays stunned on floor bleeding profusely. He has a far off look in his eyes, he mouths words silently. As if the blow to head when he crashed down, has sent him into another place and time.
Mercutio strikes with his whip, it snaps around the blade of the dagger. He yanks hard and the dagger flys out of Mott's hand, landing on the ground near Alphonse.
When the dagger flys out of Mott's hand he suddenly snaps back to his normal senses. He growls with anger when realizes what happens. You fucks! I will have your heads decorating my chamber walls for this!!!


((links turn))






Zero

You follow the trail into the next northern room where it exits into the surrounding areas. The Kargat generally have not ventured out of the library area. The rat has some distance on you at this point.
((your move.. another set of rolls if you pursue further.which you will be heading outside the library area and into the surrounding area.))

[phaedrusxy]

Mercutio says "Just think of it as a training exercise, Mott."

[linklord231]

Alphonse bends down to pick up the dagger at his feet.  As soon as his fingers touch the hilt, he gasps in astonishment, and a far-off look comes over his eyes.

Will save: 

Rolled 1d20+1 : 5 + 1, total 6

((Phae, do any of your bardic buffs effect Horror checks?  I think things that apply to fear saves also apply to horror.))

[phaedrusxy]

(Yeah, the Inspire Courage he has running now should give everyone a +3 vs. Charm and Fear. I forgot to mention that.))

[dna1]

((k alphonse looks like your stunned for 1 round, Riek your action sir))


A look of terror comes over Mott as Alphonse bends down and grabs his dagger. As he is reaching for it Mott begins to stammer No! Noo no no noo noo nooo!

[Scout89]

When Alphonse reached for the dagger, Riek shouted No, Alphonse! But it was too late. <<For the love of the gods!>> he thought. He readies himself to shoot Mott once more, Don't move a finger, Mott! Or I'll make sure you can't do it anymore!

(click to show/hide)

Readied Action: Shoot a Mind Arrow at Mott if he tries to do anything other than surrender.
I'll roll an Intimidate Check for completion's sake, but Riek is not counting with his (lack of) ability to threaten Mott.

Intimidate Check 1d20-1 : 8 - 1, total 7

[dna1]

((my action, alright first off, when Mott gets up it provokes AoO, however, he has a Armband of Elusive Action, so 1x/day he can avoid one AoO. This time its avoiding you phae, and alphonse is stunned for 1 round he won't be making an action. I will go a head and narrate as if you tried to strike him with your AoO.
Riek go ahead and roll your readied action on Mott.))

In a split second Mott swings his legs into the air and does a graceful kip-up. While in mid-air Mercutio snaps his whip at Mott, trying to snag a limb. But somehow he manages to slip past the whip, he lands crouching with his torso turned so he is half-way facing both Alphonse and Mercutio. He growls loudly as he draws a simple looking dagger from behind his back and flicks it at Alphonse.

attack

Rolled 1d20+12 : 12 + 12, total 24

knife damage

Rolled 1d4+1 : 2 + 1, total 3

fire explosion damage

Rolled 3d6 : 6, 1, 4, total 11

The knife slams into Alphonse's chest and explodes into a small fireball. The knife sticks into his arm, leaving Alphonse standing there scorched and wounded.

Mott snickers as he fades into the air.

Rolled 1d20+22 : 18 + 22, total 40

((alright I am assuming the dagger hits so I went a head and narrated it, what kind of AC negatives do you get for being stunned? I just assumed it was rolling vs flat footed.
anyways.. heres my list of actions
kip-up = move
dagger throw = attack
Hide in plain sight = swift action.

Riek your readied action takes place before Mott hides, any actions on mott after this till treat him as being hidden.

[phaedrusxy]

Not wanting to risk blinding his friend, Mercutio pulls out a flask from his belt, and throws it at the area where he last saw Mott. Upon shattering, the area is splattered with a glowing paste which sticks to everyone in the area.

((Torchbug Paste. Acts like Faerie Fire, but not magical.))

[dna1]

Mercutio slams down his flask onto the area where the Inquisitor was at. Within seconds the outline of Mott is glowing with purple fire. He appears to be hunched over in a defensive position.. or is that in pain? It's hard to tell just with the outline, but he is there.

((concealment negated, next turn should be alphonse.. which he had a 1 round stun, so it skips back to Riek then my self.))

[dna1]

((zook you forgot a 50% miss chance because you cant see him. your spot was to low.. rolling now. 1-50 hit, 51-100 miss.

Rolled 1d100 : 57, total 57

[dna1]

Zero swoops into the room chasing the hidden dire rat. He can tell where the rat generally is, but he is blending in with the darkness quite well, making it nearly impossible to pinpoint his exact location. Zero dives hard intent on killing the rat, but he comes up empty. He can hear the vermin scurrying further north. As it is now Zero is nearing the end of the Kargats Library. If he doesn't dispatch the enemy soon there is a good chance of him escaping into the underdark.


((k sir, your action again, the rat used his turn to flee further. make your rolls if you continue to pursue. the rat is leaving a noticeable trail, not to mention he isn't very quiet.))

[dna1]

((oh also you all hear this))

Kwah-Yah then uses Azalin's Trinket to send a message to everyone but Valrin and Punka (using however many uses are needed to send all of the message)

"We found an ornate box. Wizards stayed to investigate, Zero and i chased shadows. I'm back, the wizards are gone, with the box. Suspicious. I'm following the Wizard's track now, going up to the upper levels of the place. Zero is going deep into the unknown. Fighting happened, swarms of rats. No real damage done. Message back with info on your end. Keeping a low profile."

[zook1shoe]

quickly sends a message back can't... talk... now... will let you know when this guy is stopped

desperately trying to stop the creature from escaping his grasp into the depths, he uses the tracks to try to determine which square the creature is in.

he then swoops down quickly, slashing with his feet at the square, and grabs at the creature's items. ending farther down the tunnel than the creature in an attempt to stop him by forcing him to pass Zero.

[Scout89]

Riek keeps a stern look to where Mott's eyes should be. You know we can see you hiding, Mott. So I'm gonna give you one last chance to surrender. If you refuse this last option, we won't stop attacking you until you're dead.

Ready Action: Mind Arrow at Mott if he does anything other than surrender, including running away.

[dna1]

((riek- motts not giving up, especially now that he wants his dagger back. go a head and make your attack sir.))




((zook))
In a blur Zero flaps down and slashes wildly while grasping at the darkness. He can feel the knife slip into a fat, fleshy vermin. You hear a squeek of pain, and suddenly you feel a skinny, fleshy appendage in your grip. It seems you managed to grasp his tail.
Out of the darkness the rat begins to appear, his body starts twisting and reshaping, growing in size and turning into that of a humanoid form.

((he is shifting into a ratman form, it will take 1 round. your action sir, currently you have dropped his tail and he is about half way through the transformation.))
