ROUND 4
Init Order: Ty, Dufgal, Ghoul Serpent, Aldric, Anora
OOC:
That’s a miss, Aldric. Spending two Luck would turn this into a hit, though.

Aldric and Dufgal are up at the top of Round 4.

OOC:
Feel free to resolve this after Ty posts
Dufgal, a bit intoxicated by the rush of adrenaline after throttling the first snake to death, yet drained of energy from the feat, takes the opportunity target the second snake while it’s distracted by the elf.

He can’t quite get into the right position to make an impact, but he sure gives the snake another combatant to worry about.

Anora lets loose an irritated grunt, as the exertion of the swings tips her off balance, and knocks some of her neatly arranged hair even further out of place…

Bleeding now from his right leg and foot, Tyravasiel staggers back. He tries to put enough distance between himself and the serpent for a forceful thrust of his javelin. The elf narrows his weird, green eyes, takes aim, then drives the weapon's mithril head toward the beast.

However, Ty's balance is off, and the stab goes wide.

With only Anora’s light forcing back the creeping black of the tomb, the four adventures maintain their white knuckled grips on their weapons. One of the rotten guardians lies in pieces, but the second slithers still, rattling and hissing as it moves. It is in the midst Dufgal, Anora and Ty — the latter of which is leaving sopping red footprints on the dusty floor of the tomb…

And when the elf darts in with his javelin, limping, the serpent strikes at his hand!

Tired from swinging the long blade in one hand, and carrying the torch in the other, Anora opts instead to stab down on the head of the beast as it coils back into place!

Before she even looses the strike, she knows it’s missed! The thing is too small, and slitting beneath the shadows and her torch!

She grunts in exhausted annoyance as the sword comes back unbloodied!

OOC:
Mentioned in the Discord: Four of you are fighting the thing, and might be striking from behind. When attacking, make a Luck roll. (Roll at or under.) Success will mean you can get +1d on your attack. Limited to one PC per round.

Aldric's Fumble Die is a d8, and the roll is modified by his -current- Luck Modifier, which is... -3. (I'm not sure Aldric could actually burn Luck to 0 vs. 1, but let's not worry about that right now.)

Aldric, roll 1d8+3 and consult the chart below...

OOC:
After we resolve Aldric's Fumble, we'll move to Round 5 and Ty and Dufgal will be up. Remember those positioning Luck rolls.

Alright!
[ +- ] Results of Aldric’s Fumble
Seems to me like this probably puts Aldric front and center to be bitten next — or at least at higher odds. With Dufgal passing his Luck test, let’s remove him as a target, and we’ll give his slot to Aldric.
Feb 26, 2025 8:38 pm
Aldric’s oar smashes down onto the floor of the moldering crypt as the snake-thing darts to the side, out of the priest’s reach. The wooden weapon does not splinter, but when the man tries to withdraw, taking a step back — he slips!

Looking down, the cleric sees seawater! On the floor… here?!
ROUND 5
Init Order: Ty, Dufgal, Ghoul Serpent, Aldric, Anora
OOC:
Ty and Dufgal are up — Dufgal is behind the thing based on his Luck roll and can use his backtabbedty-stab. Aldric is at +2 to be attacked.
Feb 26, 2025 9:28 pm
The thief sees the serpent coiling to attack the man of the very wet cloth yet again. Will the trials of faith never end?! Well, they will if Dufgal has anything to say about it! He sends the sturdy wire around the long throat of the snake menace and reaches to catch the other end for the throttle.
OOC:
Crit result:Foe dazed by ferocious attack; its speed and actions are reduced by half

Tomb Serpent
A keening shriek comes from the leprous serpent when Dufgal comes from behind with his garrote — and like that, the fiend is in pieces, ended by the thief’s deadly wire. The sound echoes throughout the tomb, but then a silence fills the room, broken only by the quiet crackle of Anora’s torch.

Victory! Combat ends, post freely. Scroll back up to Feb 11th to see fully descriptions of the room, what you’d already discovered, etc.

Wanting to make sure none of those foul creatures remain lurking in the shadows, Dufgal pokes his head into the dark space from which they appeared.
Feb 27, 2025 12:21 am
OOC:
They came from inside the ghoul-things, which Ty dazzled. And it appears they were perched high on the wall in the dark.
