Corra: Dark Skinned woman in studded leather

Dylan: A male wild elf with red-brown hair.

Pavel: Pale Khazad wearing shades and a wide-brimmed hat.

Corra has disconnected.

You were all hired from the Guild to explore a mine up in the mountains which was reportedly haunted, but when you arrived you found one lone woman faking ghost sounds to scare people away, and no danger. You got the standard pay (pretty small without the danger bonus) and are heading back towards Alexandria when you hear running feet around a corner of the road and a small group of humans come roud the bend, clearly jogging because they are too winded to run any faster. They pull to a stop at the sight of you but then one woman stps out of the group (it looks to be mostly children of various ages) and addresses you. "Greetings, travellers, just let me..." She pants for a few seconds and collects herself. "Greetings. I assure you we have nothing worth robbing." Indeed they all look unarmed, and are all watching you warily. Well, all but the ones who have collapsed now that they have stopped running.

Dylan looks immediately concerned and raises his hands in a gesture of peace. "It's ok, we're with the Guild. We're not here to rob you." He nods up the path they just came from and asks, "But what are you running from? Something sure has you all spooked."

Pavel doesn't seem particularly annoyed by the lack of ghost killing in the mine, though with the sun still up, he has switched out his minotaur helmet for a large wide brimmed hat and a pair of smoked lens spectacles. The insinuation that he is a robber does seem to get to the khazad and he huffs out in broken tradespeak, "Not robbers. Mercenaries."

The woman having caught her breath looks relieved. "Oh, it's terrible. I run a summer camp for children up here in the mountains, you may have heard of it, Delta's Dawnbright Retreat. Usually everything is quiet and we go about the daily chores away from the hassle of city life, but recently we've been seeing signs of intruders into the stockade. Yesterday I sent off one of the councilors to town for reinforcements but didn't hear back, and then last night came the kobolds! Lots of kobolds!"

One of the girls, perhaps 5, breaks in and holds out both hands. "This many! I counted!"

Delta continues. "Indeed, about a dozen I think, but far bolder than any I've seen before and without weapons! They took over the camp and locked us into the cabins! This morning when most of them went to sleep I slipped out with these, about half my charges, and we're on our way to get help. Can you help, brave adventurers?"

Dylan blinks, openly surprised. "Good lord, those are some bold kobolds. But... no weapons you say?" It's not that Dylan doesn't believe the claim, he's just confused. He looks back round at his colleagues and shrugs. "I don't think I've ever seen a kobold without a spear, or knife or something." He waves his hand to dismiss the thought and nods at the woman. "Nevermind, of course! Of course we can help." He turns back to the others and asks, "Right guys?"

Pavel normally wouldn't go for charity work, but kobold killing is a whole different matter. Especially after the little bastards ambushed him in that canyon. "Breed like cave rats. Come we will kill many kobold." The dorf grumbles, intent to butcher some reptilian little dragonoids as much he butchers the common tongue.

Delta thinks. "Well, some of thm had these claw things strapped to their hands, but their leader just leapt up and kicked poor Doris in the belly and she collapsed and the rest swarmed her! She was in charg of defense, her mother is in the Alexandria guard so she knows how to swing a sword. It really didn't help." She seems upset at the thought of what happened and one of the smaller kids starts crying. "It's a little ways back along the road, then turn left at the sign for Delta's Dawnbridge Retreat, you can't miss it. It's not that far along, a stockade and several buildings. If you hurry you can probably get there before dark."

Dylan nods eagerly, and takes a moment to rest a reassuring hand on Delta's shoulder. "Don't worry, we'll clear them out. It won't matter /how/ they fight when we're done with them." He removes the bow from across his back and pops open the cap on his quiver of arrows as he starts up the path, slowing just enough to watch for his companions joining him.

Ssylrath has dropped a TIMESTOP!

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "9 kobolds run forward, double-moving. They end in melee with all of you, 3 each. I'll pose it."

The kobolds spot you on the trail and start shouting, running forward. "Watch out! There are tallfolk at the gate! warn Gurg! Waaaargh!" They run right up to you all, you can see they have blades strapped to their forearms instead of the more normal spears and such, but they seem used to them and they do look sharp. <draconic>

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

GAME: Note Flat-footed on Pavel ended.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You have three small scaly critters in your face."

<OOC> Pavel says, "I stabs a kobold."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Dead 'bold?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, Corra, we'll back up and do your action at the top. Go ahead and pose killing one Pavel."

GAME: Ssylrath reverses the initiative order.

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, I'll put up the opening pose for Corra. :)"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You beat their initiative Corra, they are still 50' off. What do you do?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No problem, we'll cope. Good luck."

GAME: Corra rolls 1d8+7: (5)+7: 12

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You killed one. I'll fix the Kobold pose to account for that. Pose it."

Corra spies the kobolds attacking the stockade and doesn't waste a moment. She pulls two arrows and looses them in rapid succession. The first takes a kobold in the neck, dropping it, while that leaves the second to fly clear as its target just fell.

The kobolds spot you on the trail and start shouting, running forward. "Watch out! There are tallfolk at the gate! warn Gurg! Waaaargh!" They run right up to you all, you can see they have blades strapped to their forearms instead of the more normal spears and such, but they seem used to them and they do look sharp. Three approach Dylan and Pavel, and two swarm Corra. <draconic>

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Can you repost your pose Pavel?"

GAME: Ssylrath advances the initiative order.

It is now Dylan's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Dylan says, "Dangit, I forgot to cast Mage Armor on the way up the path. What a doofus. :p Oh well. I'll flurry and see how it goes."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I'll assume you did, it's obvious and easy."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh ok, thanks!"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Cast that now. Flurry away."

GAME: Dylan casts Mage Armor. Caster Level: 1 DC: 14

<OOC> Dylan says, "I use Weapon Finesse, mind if I just roll ranged-1?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Go ahead."

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged - 1: (14)+3+- 1: 18

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged - 1: (12)+3+- 1: 16

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Both hit."

Pavel blinks, surprised by the sight of three kobolds actually bum-rushing him. Even at three to one, he apparently finds it pretty bold. Especially now that he quickly reduces it to 2 to 1, throwing the spear point of his halberd into the throat of one as it closes in, shaking the limp body to ready it again.

GAME: Dylan rolls 2d6+4: (6)+4: 10

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Was that both? Can I get them separately?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh sure, sorry"

GAME: Dylan rolls 1d6 + 2: (3)+2: 5

GAME: Dylan rolls 1d6 + 2: (4)+2: 6

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "So it takes you both hits but you drop one of them solidly. Pose it."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You have two kobolds. Go."

Shimmering with the magical protection Dylan cast on himself on their way up the path, he is caught off guard when the kobolds rush them. He still has his bow, but whips his feet up in a flourish, kneeing and then kicking kicking one of the little monsters unconscious.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? You can 5' out of reach still."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, I'll move on and resolve your action when you come back. :)"

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "There are two kbolds on each of you, they all kove to flank and attack. Six more come running out of the camp to join them, leaving 4 on each of you, 2 with attacks this round. I'll roll them."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "So one hit on Pavel."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 1d4: (4): 4

GAME: You damaged Pavel for 4 points. 26 remaining.

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Pavel will murderify the one that stabbed me, 5ft step to avoid any flanks or a flank without drawing an AoO.

GAME: Pavel rolls melee+1-1: (4)+6+1+-1: 10

More kobolds come flooding out of the camp in response to the shouts until you are all surrounded by short scaly menaces. Only Pavel takes an actual injury but you are all now swarmed.

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh yeah, can Pavel and I flank?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Each of you is pretty much surrounded. I'll allow a flank though. It doesn't help."

It is now Dylan's turn! Corra is next!

Pavel looks even more surprised as of all the thrashing, he is the one to be wounded, one of their tiny blades slipping into one of the creases of his armor plates. Out of frustration, he swings his polearm around, but comes up an inch or two over the kobolds heads.

<OOC> Pavel has to put on some spaghetti real quick. If it comes up my turn and I'm idle, just assume I am stabbing kobolds.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "OK."

<OOC> Dylan says, "What's the process of casting Shield while surrounded like this?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Concentration check. DC 17 I think?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "And if I fail, they all get AOO's?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "If you fail you lose the spell. No AoO."

<OOC> Dylan says, "What do you roll for concentration?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Caster level plus spellcasting stat bonus."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Ok, so Sorc1 and Charisma 16 means I roll a +4?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Yep."

<OOC> Dylan says, "I'll risk it"

GAME: Dylan rolls 4: (3)+4: 7

GAME: Dylan casts Shield. Caster Level: 1 DC: 14

<OOC> Dylan says, "No good!"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No spell, sorry."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? Any sign of life?"

Surrounded as he is, Dylan looks like he's trying to focus for another spell, but he can't manage to get his thoughts straightened out to pull it off. He sighs and drops back into a ready stance to defend himself as best he can.

<OOC> Corra says, "yeah sorry, dinner happened"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Take two rounds of actions. You are surrounded. :)"

<OOC> Corra says, "surrounded as in no 5' step back or?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "The first round you could, the second round no."

<OOC> Corra says, "first rd step back 5' rapid shot with deadly aim one arrow each at the first two that ran up at me"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Go."

GAME: Corra rolls ranged+2+1-2-2: (16)+8+2+1+-2+-2: 23

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Kill both. Second round? No 5' this time, they flank you."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Nice!"

<OOC> Corra says, "how many on me?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Your damage bonus kills them."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Two."

<OOC> Corra says, "will rapid shot deadly aim one shot at each, taking the aoo if it causes them."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "One kill."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pose both, oe or two poses as you wish. :)"

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Five more kobolds flood out and surround Corra for a total of 6, one attacking. The four on each of Pavel and Dylan each attempt to grapple, provoking AoOs. Each of you please make one AoO."

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged: (9)+3: 12

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "To be clear: On each of you one is grappling, the other three are aiding the grapple. Dylan misses."

Corra blinks as the kobolds rush up to her. She has her ancestral weapon in her hand, her mighty composite longbow and an arrow in the other as she gets swarmed by kobolds, first it is just two and before they even can do anything she hops back a half step and puts an arrow through each of them, felling them where they stand, but then two more swarm and they try to hit her but it isn't very successful. She grins, "Hi, big mistake" she says and the pulls another arrow, she gets struck at again as she makes herself ready and downs another with an arrow through the neck.

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (corra stab): (18)+3 (corra stab): 21

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 5 (grab Dylan): (4)+5 (grab Dylan): 9

<OOC> Pavel says, "Back."

GAME: Pavel rolls melee+1-1: (14)+6+1+-1: 20

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "That misses your CMD Dylan?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Um"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "And Pavel, damage?"

GAME: Pavel rolls 1d10+7: (3)+7: 10

<OOC> Dylan says, "CM/D/ yes!"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Was looking at my B :p"

<OOC> Pavel says, "you wanted the D."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, so one misses the grab on Dylan, the one on Pavel just dies. I'll pose it."

The kobolds swarm around Pavel and Dylan, one taking a halberd in the throat and expiring messily while Dylan manages to throw off the grabbing hands. Corra gets stabbed however with one of the wird armblade things. There are now six attacking Corra, four on Dylan and three on Pavel.

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Is everything clear I hope? Pavel!"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Am I reading this correctly, that they would get +6 to their CMD's if I tried to Tumble away?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh sorry, I'm next, not now!"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pretty much yes. The first no bonus, then cumulating +2 for each additional."

<OOC> Pavel will stab a kobold.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Roll."

GAME: Pavel rolls melee-1+1: (10)+6+-1+1: 16

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Kill. Pose it."

GAME: Pavel rolls 1d10+7: (1)+7: 8

It is now Dylan's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Dylan says, "Would I roll 4 times? Or just one and compare to see how many AOO's they get?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Lemme check that."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I'm going to go with one roll, compare to all, unless someone can find a reference otherwise."

<OOC> Dylan says, "K, I'm going for it. I'd like to tumble to get some free space, and cast Shield"

GAME: Dylan rolls acrobatics: (4)+7: 11

The khazad, now motivated by the pain in his side from the little kobold puncture and now the lot of them trying to get their filthy scaley hands on his birthright armor, shakes the second dead kobold off of his halberd's spear point and goes with another swing of the axe. Low this time, and that works out much better, shearing the thin reptilian legs off one of his attackers. Pavel silences his screams by stomping on his head with a hob-nailed boot.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You avoid the first one but not the next 3."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yeah :p"

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3: (12)+3: 15

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra, you have six on you. Action?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "A 5' will still have 4 threatening you best case."

Bobbing and weaving, weaving and bobbing. Dylan is quick, but he's also surrounded. Finally he finds a sliver of an opening and dives through it. Several of them take swipes at him as he goes, but none of them can catch him. In the open again, he flexes his free hand and makes the incantation to call up an additional layer of protection before settling back into his familiar fighting stance.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Your AC is now 25 yes Dylan?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yeah"

<OOC> Dylan says, "For a minute, anywa :p"

<OOC> Corra says, "will 5' step take what aoo...and shoot two of the 4..pbs rapid, deadly aim"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, 4 AoOs."

GAME: Corra rolls ranged+1+2-2-2: (13)+8+1+2+-2+-2: 20

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Kill two. Pose it."

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

Corra doesn't like the fact that she is getting swarmed and by the greater number. Six surround her and she decides to improve her odds a bit. She hops back a bit and while barely avoiding some shots from the kobolds she looses two arrows and two kobolds drop, pierced by her shots, then there were four remaining..on her.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, two of Dylan's get frustrated and join the ones on Corra, they try to grapple. Do you have a way of making an AoO while wielding a bow? The others attack Dylan and Pavel, two on each, just stabs."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (dylan): (2)+3 (dylan): 5

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (pavel): (3)+3 (pavel): 6

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (pavel): (13)+3 (pavel): 16

<OOC> Corra says, "I think it lets me get an arrow off but not 100"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Not unless you have something that specifically says so."

<OOC> Corra says, "ok..then no"

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 9 (grab Corra): (17)+9 (grab Corra): 26

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "How is that versus CMD?"

<OOC> Corra says, "is grabbed"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, you have kobolds climbing all over you, you are grappled. "Grappled creatures cannot move and take a -4 penalty to Dexterity. A grappled creature takes a -2 penalty on all attack rolls and combat maneuver checks, except those made to grapple or escape a grapple. In addition, grappled creatures can take no action that requires two hands to perform.""

The kobolds swarm over Corra, hampering her actions severely, while others stab at Dylan and Pavel to no avail.

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You have 2. Pavel?"

<OOC> Pavel says, "Stabs!"

<OOC> Pavel says, "Got some RL drama butting in, sorry for the delays."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Roll."

GAME: Pavel rolls melee+1-1: (5)+6+1+-1: 11

<OOC> Pavel says, "Or not."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Miss. Pose."

It is now Dylan's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Dylan says, "I can't move and flurry same turn, right?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Correct. 5' only."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "There are two flanking you."

Probably shouldn't have stepped on the kobold head. It looked menacing, sure, but kob-brains are slippery. Enough to throw Pavel's stance off as he brings his polearm to bear and drive the bloody spike into the belly of another attacker. "NNgh." The dwarf grumples in the universal language of frustation.

<OOC> Dylan says, "How far away is Corra?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Let's say 15'."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Ok, I'll try a tumble again"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Go."

<OOC> Dylan says, "I can go 15' with a tumble"

GAME: Dylan rolls acrobatics: (5)+7: 12

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Yep. You avoid both."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Ok, now I'll just do 1 big punch on the one grappling Corra"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "OK."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Or kick, I guess, but yeah"

<OOC> Dylan says, "flank bonus?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "They are technically all grapplig at this point I think."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Sadly, once grappled, you don't threaten anymore."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No flank."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Or do they become flatfooted for grappling?"

<OOC> Pavel says, "Their dex drops by 4."

<OOC> Pavel says, "So that helps."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No, they just don't threaten. And yeah."

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged: (2)+3: 5

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "That still misses. :("

<OOC> Dylan says, "Well, need more than a 2 on the die :p"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pos your daring rescue attempt."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? They can't assist on holding the grapple so you may well be able to throw them off."

<OOC> Corra says, "will try."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Roll CMB."

GAME: Corra rolls cmb: (8)+6: 14

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Success! As a Stabdard you break the grab you have a move still. You are surrounded."

Like a snake, Dylan slips through the horde of kobolds to come up at Corra's side. He tries to land a kick at one of them holding on to her, but misses for fear of hurting her as well. Yeah, that's why.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Anything else Corra?"

<OOC> Corra says, "no..has nothing that is just a move"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "OK. Pose it."

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

Corra manages to throw the kobolds off of her for the moment at least and tries to figure out what she is going to do next.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Oh, you switching weapons Corra?"

<OOC> Corra says, "yeah..let me repose, drop bow draw scimitar"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Two attack Dylan, two attack Pavel, six try to stab Corra."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (dylan): (16)+3 (dylan): 19

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3 (dylan): (8)+3 (dylan): 11

Corra manages to throw the kobolds off of her for the moment at least and tries to figure out what she is going to do next. She does drop her bow and pulls out her scimitar.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Damage?"

GAME: Corra rolls 1d6+2: (3)+2: 5

GAME: You damaged Corra for 7 points. 25 remaining.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You wound him gravely but he does not drop. He has your bow."

The swarm on Corra change tactics in the face of her scimitar, just stabbing at her from all sides. One also grabs her bow, earning a nasty slash in the process. The others flail in futility at the other two adventurers.

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pavel?"

<OOC> Pavel says, "STAB."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Roll."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Jesus."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "In an amusing fashion if you wish. :)"

It is now Dylan's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan?"

Pavel looks to Corra and Dylan as they are swarmed, letting the attacks of the kobolds scratch across his armor pitifully. Almost as pitiful as the wild swing he takes to ward them off while surveying the battlefield.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, Dylan we'll do your attacks when you get back."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? One is standing there with your bow, bleeding heavily. There are five others around you."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pose, anyway."

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

Corra growls as she sees the one take her bow, she got a slice out of him and this time she works on taking more and drops him and her bow to the ground as he isn't moving. She moves to stand over her bow.

<OOC> Corra nods

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan? Your action?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh sorry! Um, can I flank with Corra now? I want to flurry at one caught between us"

Dylan steps up to assist Corra who clearly doesn't need any help, but hey, it's what he does. His attacks are fast and furious, but the smaller opponents seem to have him off his game.

The horde of kobolds swarms all round, slashing and jabbing at your knees and ankles. None make contact.

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pavel! Roll better!"

<OOC> Pavel says, "Second verse, same as the first. I'll lay off power attack this time."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra!"

Still not entirely on form, Dylan does manage to drop the one he'd been working over earlier. He scans the sea of kobolds for any clues about how to proceed.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You slash at +6 I assume, I'll roll that."

Pavel plants his feet and settles in to kill one of the little scaley bastards with one sure thrust, but the axe blade of his halberd does little but tear what raggedy armor it wears open. "<something you don't understand in khazdul>" He grumbles under his breath.

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 6 (Corra attacks!): (15)+6 (Corra attacks!): 21

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra kills one."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I'll include the pose for that in the Kobold pose if she's not back."

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "There are 7 kobolds left from 20 original. They all flee back towards the camp, withdrawing. Some make it inside, some are just at the gate."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Do we get AoO's for their fleeing? :)"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Nope, they withdraw."

The Kobolds, wathing yet another of their number cut down by Corra, decide to take the better part of valor and run away. "Aaaah! Adventurers! Gurg, save us! Use your magic fighting powers to destroy the softskins!" Some make it inside the camp but most are still within view. <draconic>

It is now Pavel's turn! Dylan is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Do you wish to pursue now or drop out of initiative?"

<OOC> Pavel says, "I'll charge the little bastards."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Cool"

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged: (20)+3: 23

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Confirm?"

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged: (11)+3: 14

Pavel growls as the combatants turn and run. "NOT DONE YET." he bellows, stubby legs carrying him recklessly farther than the kobolds can cautiously. He splits one of the scaley monsters down the middle with a wild axe chop, almost bisecting it in that one savage swing.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Nope. Damage?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oh well"

GAME: Dylan rolls 1d8 + 2: (2)+2: 4

<OOC> Dylan shakes head.

It is now Corra's turn! Kobolds is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? Pick up and shoot?"

<OOC> Corra says, "yeah how far did they make it"

As the kobolds retreat, Dylan says, "We can't let them get away, they'll only come back!" He hefts the heavy bow he's been carrying all this time, nocks and arrow and lets fly. It only wings one though. Apparently he needs more practice.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "40' for the nearest."

<OOC> Corra says, "so no pbs. alright one arrow at the 40' one at the next one. rapid and deadly aim"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No rapid shot, you have to pick up first."

GAME: Corra rolls ranged+2-2: (11)+8+2+-2: 19

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I believe you kill it."

Corra drops her sword and picks up her bow and looses an arrow at the nearest kobold, "Working on it." she says as she downs it.

It is now Kobolds' turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, the kobolds vanish through the gate, scattering throuhout the place. They all double move, withdrawing, and there are no hahre or shooting lines. I'm calling this combat, 5 of 20 escaped and one of those is bleeding."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No charge lines."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Any disputes?"

<OOC> Pavel says, "S'fine."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Nope"

<OOC> Pavel says, "The xp is still the same. Let's go take all the stuff these guy's stole from the poor peon villagers and call it treasure! :)"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "They are defeated, there is no way they are facing you again. :)"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Hahaha"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I'll pose the end of the combat."

<OOC> Pavel melts down wedding bands and gold teeth. >_> <_<

<OOC> Dylan says, "Thought maybe we had a boss fight coming with Gurg :p"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You do. Not with these guys though."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Oohh"

As the kobolds scramble through the slightly ajar gate they vanish from view and everything grows quiet. Too quiet. You can faintly hear the sounds of kobolds still running on the far side of the gate but nothing else, no sounds of camp life or released campers or anything. What will you do next?

GAME: Ssylrath removes the timestop.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Free roleplay again. Pose whenever you wish. :)"

Dylan sighs as his shield spell sputters and goes out. "Hell," he says, taking a step towards the gate. "They'll be some kinda pain ferreting out of a place like this. Then again..." He tilts his head and nods to himself. "There was something familiar about their fighting style. I bet... I bet they had a leader here somewhere. Someone who... if we took /him/ out, they'd scatter for good. Just a guess, but it might work."

Pavel grunts as he pulls his halberd free from the mangled corpse of the kobold killed last, taking care to wipe the blood clean with an old rag from his pouch. From another pouch, he produces a bundle of what appears to be ground herbs and the husk of a dead albino cricket of some alien variety seen far below the surface. He pops both into his mouth and gives them several thoughtful chews before he spits the disgusting mess into one palm and begins to pack the nick in his side with the mixture. "Follow and kill? They breed up more, be back in half year with more."

Corra picks up her scimitar and sheathes it and then shakes her head a bit, "Just want to cclear it out and call it good."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Let me know when you want to go inside."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "At some point in the future that will come up."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Anyone? Poses or should we go inside?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "By the way, staff swapped a feat for me, dropping Dodge for PBS. I can keep going with Dodge if you want, or whatever. Didn't realize they were gonna get to it so fast XD"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I can't see your feats, so go with whichever."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Let's go ahead and go in. Only got an hour to kill zee boss."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Ok, I'll play the new feats"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yep, lets go!"

<OOC> Dylan says, "I assume I'm well within my Mage Armor hour?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Oh yes."

Corra moves a bit closer, "So...lets go."

Slipping through the gate you all stand at one end of the main open area of the camp with several cabins scattered around the edges and a larger lodge at the far end. Everything is quiet and still except for the single kobold standing in the middle of the open area, about 60' away. It is dressed in a white robe belted with a blood red belt, and around its head is a white headband with a symbol over the forehead. None of you can make it out from here. The kobold takes a fighting stance, completely unarmed, and then gestures for you to attack with one hand.

Ssylrath has dropped a TIMESTOP!

GAME: Note Flat-footed on Pavel ended.

Dylan runs forward with his bow in hand, stopping when he reaches an agreeable distance and draws his shot. It goes wide, but Dylan narrows his eyes at the thing's movement, learning.

<OOC> Dylan says, "Because 'knowing is half the battle' >.>"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "60' range."

<OOC> Dylan says, "The other half is rolling higher"

It is now Corra's turn! Kobold Monk is next!

GAME: Note Flat-footed on Corra ended.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? Shooting?"

"There is one. Let us kill it and be done." Pavel growls in his broken tradespeak. The halberd is stabbed into the ground, no need to dirty it up with more kobold blood, so he thinks. The khazard moves forward slowly, pulling the compact crossbow off of his hip and taking a pot shot that the kobold sidesteps. "Nngh." Is Pavel's response and he dumps the crossbow as well, hand going for the hammer at his waist.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, we'll get back to Corra. The kobold moves up to Dylan and attempts a Stunning Fist."

GAME: You damaged Dylan for 4 points. 12 remaining.

The kobold slides forward, mainting its combat stance, and unleashes a low kick to the groin, doubling Dylan over gasping for breath. It grins wider and points at Pavel, beckoning again.

It is now Kobold Monk's turn! Dylan is next!

It is now Dylan's turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan, pose your non-action please. :)"

Dylan coughs as his bow tumbles from his nerveless fingers. His brow furrows in confusion as he tries to reorient himself.

It is now Pavel's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Corra says, "yeah got stucck on phone"

<OOC> Pavel says, "I will charge+draw hammer."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pavel, go ahead."

<OOC> Corra says, "+1 hit+1 dam +1 save vs fear"

Corra frowns and then starts to sing. Her words are a kind of inspiring song, even the melody helps that is is geared to inspire her allies.

GAME: Pavel rolls melee+1+2+1-1: (4)+6+1+2+1+-1: 13

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Miss. :P"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Sorry, I can't help you with those rolls."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "It's behind your allies."

<OOC> Corra says, "range?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "30'."

Pavel is fairly easy to manipulate, especially if your goal is to attack. The plate-wearing khazad warrior runs forward again, pulling his hammer free and taking a downward swing, which is easily avoided by the kobold monk.

<OOC> Corra says, "pbs rapid shot deadly aim, continue singing"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, I'll apply cover."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? Roll?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I believe she's at +6 after the mods, I'll roll if she doesn't first."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Woot, can dylan 5' for the flank? :)"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Sorry, Pavel, I gotta put my Shield up first"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "And a second comes out from behind a cabin where he was hiding and attacks Pavel with the flank, one attack, stunning fist as well."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 7: (7)+7: 14

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "That misses too. I'll pose."

The kobold monk swings at Pavel twice, barely clipping him once but setting him up for a flank with another slightly larger one that has a similar outfit but a green belt. This one also swimgs on Pavel but glances off his armor. Both grin slightly less.

It is now Dylan's turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You can 5' and cast."

<OOC> Dylan says, "5' back, and cast shield"

GAME: Dylan casts Shield. Caster Level: 1 DC: 14

It is now Pavel's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pavel, you are flanked."

Dylan shakes his head to clear it, taking an unsteady step back. Once there though, his eyes clear and he seems to have his bearings again. He takes a deep breath and mutters a spell again, calling up those protective magics.

<OOC> Pavel says, "I will 5' out of the flank, diagonally so the other one can't just flank with a 5ft step again and try to trip the one that punched me."

GAME: Pavel rolls cmb+1+2: (11)+6+1+2: 20

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Go ahead. If your weapon isn't Trip you don't get any bonuses from it."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "That works though."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pose it."

It is now Corra's turn! Kobold Monk is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra? You back?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, I'll roll for her again, +7 twice."

Pavel's head snaps from the wild swing of the monk and rocks forward from the frail impact of the blow to his back. Dipping down low, he steps under another swing and grabs the exposed tail of one that landed a hit, pulling him down on his ass. And a bit of bloody spittle while he's at it.

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 7: (17)+7: 24

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 7: (6)+7: 13

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, so the first one would hit but it deflects the arrow with a quick flick of the wrist."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 7: (6)+7: 13

<OOC> Pavel says, "Yeah."

From afar, Dylan grins.

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 1d6: (2): 2

GAME: You damaged Pavel for 2 points. 23 remaining.

After blocking Corra's arrow the standing kobold rocks Pavel with a blow between his armour plates, straight to the kidneys. The other one stands and swings but misses. Both laugh wildly, completely unhurt.

It is now Dylan's turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Can I flank one of them or is Pavel not threatening?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "He is not."

Pavel wobbles but don't fall down!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Nice. :)"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Okay, what do you guys want Corra to do?"

Finally recovered somewhat, Dylan steps into place to make this a fight. He delivers a vicious kick to the kobold monk, apparently finally adjusted to their small size.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I'll crowdsource this. They can only deflect 1/round."

<OOC> Dylan says, "She has Precise Shot, right?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Yes."

<OOC> Dylan says, "I'd say double shot red belt"

<OOC> Dylan says, "If Pavel agrees"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "With or without the Deadly Aim? It gives her -2 to hit, +4 damage."

<OOC> Pavel says, "Hit the dead aim, yeah."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Without, for my vote"

"Are you sure you can keep this up?" Dylan asks, as arcane energy sparks in his eyes. He connects with a flat hand palm strike in the kobold's ribs, and discharges magic to weaken the creature.

<OOC> Pavel says, "..."

Pavel snaps out of his concussed state and grabs the kobold in front of him by the shoulders and plants a spiked knee right into it's gut, lifting the 30 lb lizard bastard off the ground with the hit.

Both kobolds keep trying to drop the Dwarven warrior, anding glancing blows. The one in the red belt is looking worried now, bleeding heavily, and starts backing up.

It is now Dylan's turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Hmm. He's going to move over to Pavel. Monk on monk action!"

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 5: (15)+5: 20

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Miss."

<OOC> Dylan says, "you mean Dylan?"

Pavel has cracked ribs, a swollen shut eye, a stab wound, and a concussion. He has had just about enough. Letting the other kobold land a punch that is absorbed by his dwarven plate mail, he scoops up his hammer and uses both hands to swing it down after two purposeful steps. The end result is the kobold's skull being caved in. The dwarf whirls his broad frame around, blood and brain in his beard and announces, "I kill you now." to the other kobold.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Dylan, yes. Sorry."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Might as well try my own stunning fist now"

<OOC> Dylan says, "No flurry though"

The last remaining kobold looks at Pavel and at the crumpled red-belt. "Now the student is the master! I just have to kill you all first!" He bounds over to the lighter-armored Dylan and swings but is foiled by the magial defenses. <draconic>

<OOC> Dylan says, "Are we flanking?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Nope."

It is now Dylan's turn! Pavel is next!

<OOC> Dylan says, "I'll give it a shot!"

GAME: Dylan rolls ranged + 1: (3)+3+1: 7

<OOC> Dylan says, "Honestly"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "...no."

<OOC> Dylan laughs.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pose. :)"

It is now Pavel's turn! Corra is next!

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "You can move to flank if you want."

Dylan accepts the other monk's attack calmly, and composed. More so than before, at least. He easily avoids the attack, and then focuses himself for a stunning blow of his own. The punch hums in the air but he's blocked and the chi energy dissipates harmlessly.

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Pavel?"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Shall we assume he beans him with flank?"

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yeah"

Pavel beans the kobold with the flank!

<OOC> Pavel says, "Sorry, had to deal with some RL. :)"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "No prob, almost done I think."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yeah, no problem man"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "Corra shooting? Has to work sometime."

<OOC> Dylan says, "Yeah, I didn't realize how freaking awesome deflect arrows is :p"

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "It is great. Not right now though."

<OOC> Ssylrath says, "I think 1d8+3 without deadly im, +4 with singing. Tripled."

GAME: Ssylrath rolls 3d8+12: (8)+12: 20

<OOC> Dylan says, "Daaamn"

The second kobold was just starting to look for escape routes when Corra again fires two arrows at him. This time the first was just a distraction as the second enters through one eye and bursts out the back of his head in a spray of gore. He wavers and collapses. All is quiet.

GAME: You remove the timestop.

Dylan flinches as he's sprayed with gore, but then brightens when he realizes the kobolds are dead. "Well done! We got them!"

Pavel grunts as he's showered with gore. Again. The arrowed kobold gets a few boots in the ribs for good measure, or at least to relent the remaining frustration from getting his ass beat silly by kobolds. "We tell no one of this."

Searching the camp you find the rest of the kids and two more caretakers barricaded inside one cabin. They start pelting you with random objects until they realize you are the rescue party, after which they are very grateful.
