Ealdwig, looking skeptically at the blue dot, sword hanging down by his side, so you're saying these are training exercises? How did we all of a sudden end up in a training simulator? Well, they... how did they?
Too young?
Ealdwig being a little miffed at what is happening, so this is the classroom? What am I going to be learning? Being forced or tricked into this "training" isn't cool. You know. Maybe ask next time. I've already had a lesson or two with Etcher and Edair. I asked them. You could have done that.
Should I mention my previous experiences? I can't say I am overly happy with the way this played out.
I must be crazy, talking to a blue dot.

Skeeve will try his approach again. First telekinetically grabbing and slamming the dummy into the far wall and the defending with the Onyx shield.
Edit: Also, I assume my last defend action prevented the actual hit.

Skeeve knocks his opponent back with a simple blast of energy. As he does so he sees three green dots appear above the dummies head. One blinks then turns red.
Though one of the poles knocks Blornvid back he manages to avoid both of its poles and is not really hurt. He retaliates with his ax striking one of the rods. As he does so he sees three green dots appear above the dummies head. One blinks then turns red.
The golems strike back. The swordsman speeds up and slashes at Edair twice while Skeeve's sends two blasts at him. Blornvid watches as the thick pillars sudenly bend at various points and move more like limbs to strike at him than simple mechanisms. Blronvid is struck once by the large wooden mechanical limbs and is surrounded by a yellow halo.

The hovering blue dot replies Once you entered the Field House I was activated in preparation of potential requests. Then one of you party entered a training room thereby activating a training option that I authorized.
What you learn is entirely up to you. What I teach is currently limited to subject deemed suitable for one of your age. No one can force you to learn, and no one forced you into the Fieldhouse. No trick was intended on you I assure you. Neither is the environment too hot or cold for one of your race. I do not ask things. I answer questions and provide properly created training schedule to help increase the skill and abilities of those who do choose to participate. I have placed you in a protective environment while your companions complete their preliminary evaluations that I initiated. What would you like to study?

OK, here is my evade roll.
Skeeve says, "Hey! You're supposed to be melee, not ranged!" The point of throwing it back was to get it out of melee range, which is what happened. But then it turned ranged, which is ... inconvenient.
Assuming we can roll on to the next attack, Skeeve is changing approach and shooting off two normal force blasts. No shield this time.
... At least he avoided one of the incoming attacks. No success on his own attacks, though. At least he didn't shoot himself ...

On evade/shield/etc, do I make one roll against one attack, one roll against all attacks, or one roll per attack for each attack. If I need another roll for the second successful attack against me, let me know and I can spit it out fast!Nov 15, 2023 2:34 pm
Incredulously, what do I want to study? No one has ever asked that before.
Starting to understand what this place is about Ealdwig looks around. OK, so this is is a training center. It was created by the family of the manor to train their people in combat and other skills. Nodding his head, alright, I think I get it.
More confidently, well, I am pretty good at acrobatics, been doing that to try to make a living. When not available to me, I've, uh, um... played a few slight of hand games to make ends meet. My feet and fingers are pretty quick and agile.
Looking at the sword in his hand, what I don't know is how to use this? Don't get me wrong, I know how to swing it. Swinging the sword a bit wildly, but I don't know how to use it effectively. I need to be able to help my new friends. I don't want to be a detriment to them and put them in danger. I know there are other ways I can help, slight of hand, pick-pocketing if necessary, lock picking, climbing, but none of that has been useful so far. Looking out the window at the group muttering mostly to himself these could be my first real friends, I certainly don't want to be the reason anyone gets hurt, or Gods forbid dead.

Again, do I need to make a second evade roll to have the second hit miss?Also, Edair can probably make his next attacks already, as Blornvid and Skeeve have.

OOC:
yes, you get 1 evade roll at disadvantage per attack if you evad. @Elysium777 Lucky Edail'rs first d6 was good. you dodge. You still get 2 actions this round.
@daryen Skeeve gets to use 2d6 to block with his spell, so another 2d6
Solidgobi has been off sight for 10 days. My guess is life happened. I sent him messages. If he does not come back by 14 days I will pull his character from the story and let him back in if he comes back.

Skeeves attacks fail to land on his opponent. The golem aims its pole at Skeeve and releases a series of rapid fire blasts at him daryen roll 2 save tests to avoid the incoming arrage
Blornvid manages to get a second strike in and a second dot changes color. The arms move in agina with one striking at him while another spins at great speed as it moves at him. ForeverDED Roll 1 save test
As Edair strikes the golem again the third light changes and the golem collapses to the ground. As it does A door facing Edair appears in the central chamber.

OOC:
Quick recap for Skeeve:Round one:
Skeeve makes a single telekinetic attack and uses his shield magic. The attack fails.
The dummy spends an action to change its weapon and then attacks and hits.
Skeeve makes his shield roll, avoiding damage.
Round two:
Skeeve makes a single telekentic attack and uses his shield magic. The attack succeeds.
The dummy attacks twice and both hit.
Skeeve makes his first shield roll, avoiding that hit.
The second shield roll is below, results to be seen.
Round three:
Skeeve changes things up, and makes two attacks with no shield magic this time. The two attacks fail miserably.
The dummy has not made its attacks yet.
So, below, I am just making the second shield magic roll for Round Two. Waiting to see how successful the dummy's attacks in Round Three are.
... success!
No defense rolls for me in Round Three, though. I took a risk and failed in my attack. Waiting to see how badly I lose that gamble ...

@daryen Since you kept blocking all its attacks the dummy went form direct attacks to an area attack that requires 2 save tests for you to avid damage.We should be on round 4 so everyone can go again
