OOC:
I'm going to say she is going to run to the tree trunk the male is on and try to use it as cover. I'll say you still have your standard action as they want to be safe anyways. Edgar used his action to do what he wanted because he actually threw the Halfling. Go ahead and take your turn
Jan 12, 2024 5:49 pm
Ylliane is confident in the ability of her new comrades, to get in the beasts' way if neccesary, so she immediately drops her pack, and in a flash has an arrow notched and ready to fire. She keeps her head down and cocked to the side, following the chittering - for lack of a better word - of the ankhegs with her ears. When she hears a clean line of fire, she takes her shot. Before the arrow has even hit, she's nocked another one and fired it off as well. Hopefully there's no elves around to be jealous.

Order of battle is probably something they should have discussed before, but there no time for recriminations now. She should be able to take a bite or two, and if not, well... she's said for a while now that she wanted one last adventure - this could be it.
OOC:
I dunno if you prefer me to say each time, but since Fighter, I'll default to flexible attacks pretty much always. Dunno if we're rolling twice for crits or just doubling it, so will leave it as it is. A nat 20 can trigger Second Shot, so I'll do that.

EDIT; Forgot to say which. Let's go with A1.

Ylliane pulls of an astounding double shot that hits both times. The first arrow hits with a satisfying slide into its underbelly while the second hits it near the face. Blood drips down both wounds.
OOC:
A1 is staggered. A2 will go after Makasi.

Makasi feels tinge of responsibility for the young Halfling woman, but she realizes now it's time to turn her attention to the beasts. As Ylliane's arrows fly at one of the creatures, Makasi holds its mate at halberd's length. "Glad you're on our side," she says to the Elf. Keeping her attention on the uninjured beast, she quickly whirls around, summons the strength of her ancestors, and strikes the one already injured by the Elf.
OOC:
Attacking the same one as Ylliane.

Falconloft, please correct me if Ylliane is a half-elf.

Ankheg
OOC:
Ylliane is actually human, the image just has long ears.
Wow, both Makasi and Ylliane both got a critical hit! This will be a quick fight
Makasi runs up and makes a cut so deep into the Ankheg that it falls over and twitches, dead. The other Ankheg is too distracted by the halfling to notice, but looks over at the adventurers that are getting in the way of its meal. It approaches and attacks Edgar with its mandables, but he is able to deflect it away in time for him to squeeze out before it hurts. it then spits acid at Hrafe, which lands and is slowly burning him.
OOC:
Hrafe now has 5 ongoing acid damage on him. When he ends his turn, he will take 5 acid damage and then need a 11 or higher on the a d20 to keep it from happening the following round

Hrafe goes, and then the rest of the party. Once Hrafe's turn is finished, the escalation die will be +1

Rolls

Mandibles vs Edgar AC 14 - 8 damage - (1d20+7)

(2) + 7 = 9

Acid Spit vs Hrafe PD 18 - 5 ongoing acid damage - (1d20+7)

(14) + 7 = 21

Jan 13, 2024 3:38 am
"Oh that stings!"

Hrafe hissed as the acid burned into his flesh. But it only served to piss him off, and that fury was let out on the ankheg that remained.

Rolls

Melee Attack - Total - (1d20+6)

(12) + 6 = 18

Melee Damage - Total - (2d10+4)

(41) + 4 = 9

Save vs acid 11 - (1d20)

(19) = 19

Jan 13, 2024 3:48 am
The blow seems to fail to find the spot Hrafe was hoping for, but as the warrior he is Hrafe still harms the Ankheg a little
OOC:
Attack missed, as AC is above 18. As it was a melee attack, he still deals damage equal to his level anyways, and thus deals 2 damage. Hrafe takes the 5 acid damage but then the acid falls off and he is no longer suffering from it.

The other 3 players in the group may now go. the escalation die is now +1
Jan 13, 2024 11:14 am
With the creature now focusing on him, Edgar lets loose with a vicious cut with his dagger.

Rolls

Melee Attack - Total - (1d20+7)

(3) + 7 = 10

Abandon Dagger - Total - (2d8+5)

(63) + 5 = 14

Sneak Attack - Total - (1d6)

(5) = 5

Jan 13, 2024 1:12 pm
Unfortunately, Edgar's weapon is intercepted by the ankheg's big claw, but the blade still scrapes enough to deal some harm
OOC:
Edgar misses and deals 2 damage
Jan 13, 2024 3:42 pm
Makasi manages to maintain some sort of spiritual connection as she pulls her halberd free of the ankheg's carapace and arcs it toward its mate.
OOC:
If that's a miss, she does half damage, so 8 or 9, depending on whether we round such things up or down.

Makasi's attack strikes true and deals a good blow, but the beast is not staggered yet
OOC:
I assume round down unless told to specifically round up
Also, as of lv 2 weapons deal two dice of damage, so I think your halberd should be doing 2d10+STR Mod by default. Go ahead and roll that other d10 and update your character sheet. In 13th age your weapon rolls a number of damage dice equal to your level. Spells are different, but weapons work that way

Ylliane grumbles a bit as battle is properly joined. "Still not an elf. I swear I need a new cloak."
OOC:
I didn't realize that my picture had pointed ears. XD I'm trying to replace it.
Jan 13, 2024 10:06 pm
OOC:
Once Ylliane takes her turn we'll see what the ankheg does
Jan 16, 2024 5:55 pm
OOC:
Sorry, I read up without realizing another round had started, so I was waiting for the Ankheg too. v__v
With one ankheg down, Ylliane quickly swivels in place to aim at the place the second one is making noise from, and looses two more arrows in quick succession. Hearing at least one arrow thud into the ankheg's carapace, she readies herself to fire again if neccesary.
OOC:
second verse same as the first.

Attacks should be 26 and 19 respectively - I forgot the eDie.

Ankheg
OOC:
looks like you didn't include the escalation die (+3 from Dex, +2 from lv, +1 from ED). As such your second attack should be a 19 which should hit exactly their AC
The beast reals from the archer's blows. It lashes out, and then looks to reposition.
OOC:
Ylliane is now taking 5 ongoing acid damage. If the battle ends before her turn, she will take it once and then it will end

It is now Hrafe's turn

Rolls

Mandibles vs Hrafe AC 18 - 8 damage - (1d20+7)

(9) + 7 = 16

Acid Spit vs Ylliane PD 14 - 5 ongoing acid damage - (1d20+7)

(19) + 7 = 26

Disengage check (-2 from engaged with 3 PCs) - (1d20-2)

(7) - 2 = 5

Escape Speed Check (success on a 1) - (1d6)

(6) = 6

Hrafe repositions and slashes at the Ankheg as it was busy trying to burrow away.

Rolls

Melee Attack - Total - (1d20+7)

(13) + 7 = 20

Melee Damage - Total - (2d10+4)

Hrafe leaves the beast at 1 hit point. If anyone can hit an AC of 19 then it will go down
OOC:
Ylliane, Makasi, and Edgar are up (no particular order). Escalation die is +2.
first come first hit gets the glory hahaha
Jan 17, 2024 2:20 pm
Her halberd still embedded in the creature's thorax, Makasi sees the beast stagger and drives the weapon further in.
OOC:
Even on a miss, that should do it, right? I do 2 damage on a miss.

OOC:
correct
Despite the glancing blow, the glaive opens up a wound that was almost opened but not quite until now. The beast falls over, dead.

The halfling female comes out of hiding while the male yells "Help! I'm not good at climbing!"
Jan 17, 2024 6:41 pm
Ylliane rolls her eyes, a gesture that would be made useless by the span between her and the tiny people even if age hadn't beaten distance to it. "Then just stay quiet - and still. There are probably no more in the vicinity, but they're burrowers. They can probably tell where you are by all your bouncing around."
