For anyone wondering about Vishi's weapon of choice:
Dagger-axe: This pole weapon consists of a dagger-shaped head set perpendicularly to a long shaft, similar in appearance to a short-bladed scythe. It is highly effective against mounted foes who think they are out of reach. A spear is often added to the top of the shaft. Up to 2 meters long.

Vishi's pole arm slams into the chest of the giant statue sending flint flying all around
OOC:
So after 6 armour points, that's 13 damage!
The statue topples backwards, stumbling over the altar and crashing to the ground.

OOC:
Next Round. The statue is on its back, but still moving.

What's everyone doing this round?

OOC:
Did it by chance release Dazarim when it fell?

If it did not, Nathem would cast Bear's Strength on himself and try to pry its fingers open to get Dazarim. Or maybe cast it on Vasana? I think she might be stronger to start. Oh, but she would have to be an Odayla worshiper.

Yes, the lifeless body of Dazarim has fallen to the ground.

OOC:
What are the mechanics of dying in Runequest? Is Dazarim dead-dead or if Nathem tried to heal him could it bring him back? Sorry I'm just not familiar with it. If there is nothing that can be done, then Nathem would cast Speedart and try to shoot the stone statue in the head.

Valid question, we're all learning the system after all!

Damage equal to more than a hit point's location can mean various things, to a leg or arm the limb becomes useless but no risk to life. To the abdomen the victim will bleed to death in 10 minutes without first aid. To the chest (as in this case) the victim will cough blood and bleed to death in ten minutes. To the head, it's a knockout and death in 5 minutes without treatment. In this case, Dazarim took 9 damage to the chest, after armour that's 7, so more hp than he has on the chest. In this case, Dazarim has lost consciousness but can still be saved by First Aid or magical healing.

Resurrection is also possible after death, followers of Chalana Arroy may have access to this powerful magic. A temple would charge whatever the adventurer's Ransom stat is to do the job and must be within 7 days, after which the soul has travelled to the Court of Silence, gateway to the afterlife.

Vasana has magical Healing as well, in case Nethem would rather do something else this round.

OOC:
I think Nathem would have to roll a 35 (Spirit Combat Magic) to successfully heal, is that right KEG? How does that line up with Vasana? Is Makarios the healer?
Jan 4, 2025 10:42 am
OOC:
A casting roll is POW x5 so 75% for Nathem. ( the 35 is for spirit combat, as Vishi just engaged in)


Makarios is the natural healer of the group so should have the best ability to heal (though his PIW is 60, so casting roll is harder ).

OOC:
I’ll just attempt the heal.
Nathem ran to the unconscious form of Dazarim calling out a whispered prayer to Odayla as he laid a hand on the man.
OOC:
Sheesh

POW x5 (75) - (d100)

(85) = 85

Nathem tries to summon healing magic, but nothing happens.
Jan 5, 2025 6:26 pm
Vasana will also try and heal Detharim when she gets a chance
Jan 5, 2025 8:41 pm
OOC:
Go ahead and make your casting roll, Vasana
Jan 5, 2025 8:50 pm
Vasana sees Vishi's magic fail to trigger and hopes it isn't too late. She crouches beside Detharim and invokes her own spirit.
OOC:
edit: haha, well.

Thankfully no fumbles on Spell casting rolls, just a wasted turn.

We're left with Vishi, Rurik, cousin monkey and Makarios
Jan 6, 2025 6:04 pm
Cousin Monkey, seeing the statue prone jumps and claws at it ferociously.

Vishi follows suit and raising his dagger-ax takes another strike.

Rolls

CM claw location - (1d20)

(11) = 11

Claw - 50 - (1d100)

(60) = 60

Vishi attack location - (1d20)

(20) = 20

Dagger-Ax - 60 - (1d100)

(62) = 62

Jan 6, 2025 6:55 pm
Rurik leapt onto the prone statue and began raking it.

Rolls

Clawx2 (50) - (d100, d20, d6)

d100 : (12) = 12

d20 : (13) = 13

d6 : (5) = 5

Clawx2 (50) - (d100, d20, d6)

d100 : (16) = 16

d20 : (5) = 5

d6 : (6) = 6

Bite (40) - (d100, d20, d6)

d100 : (95) = 95

d20 : (3) = 3

d6 : (2) = 2

OOC:
Fighting vs a prone target adds 40% to your hit chance, how, however Rurik and Cousin Monkey are ineffectual against the stone. (6 points of armour all over)
Vishi does hit though, to the head. go ahead and roll damage.@thefrozenghost
Jan 10, 2025 5:18 pm
Vishi's hit

Rolls

Damage - (3D6+1D4)

(133) + (3) = 10
