Dark Seeds

You step out of "The Redemption Spire" to meet the group of people to attempt to parley. They looked like they were about to shoot down Elyshaeba's raven hen they notice you. They're taken a bit aback at first as they were focused on the raven, but after a moment of hesitation they exclaim "Fresh meat from the Spire!" in Low Dendrelyssi (but the language of violence is universal...) while drawing their weapons and rushing you...

You can see more clearly that there's seven of them now, most of them are equipped with some sort of melee weapons (swords, hand axes, maces), and two of them stay farther back with bows, all are wearing simple leather armour. Seems combat might be unavoidable...

First round of combat.

Initiative
14 Trendek
12 Gilcyne
10 Valmara
10 Raiders
10 Elyshaeba
09 Glump
08 Korghar
(please roll 1d6 tiebreaker between Elyshaeba, Valmara, and the hostile rabble)

Declare Spells:
If Glump or Elyshaeba wants to cast any spells, they are declared now.


In the meantime, Trendek is up.

10 yards, give or take a few feet...Oh, well, they would have been momentarily distracted by something else then...

One extra HD, yes, but for one round per level per day. Which means that at level 1, you get just 1 round of flurry of blows, that's it.

Also, do keep in mind that your Wayfarer's Unarmed Damage allows you to inflict M or H damage if you wish, so you're not stuck just rolling 1d3 for damage if you want.

Finally, this -1 penalty applies when you perform an extra attack from using my VL damage house rule which is not the same thing as your Flurry of Blows, but could be stacked with it should you choose...

I'll let you edit your previous post and re-roll if you want now that you have all the relevant information.

Aw man, those damage re-rolls suck, what a shame... Trendek hits the two nearest enemies. The first one's armour seems to completely negates the damage while the second one gets lightly bruised.

Gilcyne then joins the fray, attacking another (the same?) target. (note that your rage lasts for a number of rounds equal to your level + D3. Please roll your rage's duration and roll your damage. Both dice would have resulted in a hit).

Valmara shoots, sadly her aim seems off...

From a blow of her great axe, Gilcyne cleaves a raider in two.

The raiders are up next. The 4 surviving melee fighters will attack the closest targets which are Trendek and Gilcyne, the archers will then take a shot at less cluttered targets in the back, at random...

Both Gilcyne and Trendek are hit once for 6 points of damage each! Some lucky blows. As for the archers, they seem to have focused on the witch, recognizing her as casting a spell, but luckily for her, both shots barely miss...

Speaking of Elyshaeba, she's up next!
