Chapter 2: Local Heroes

OOC:

Lol of course I get a bonus on the round I didn't intend to do anything so as to draw the enemies out instead.

Jan 2, 2025 1:07 pm

OOC:

Let me know if you want to hold for now Wess and Chigaru and as mentioned in OOC, Khel can hold and use his roll later in the round if you wish.

OOC:

id like to hold at the top of the stairs please, assuming we arent retconning anything

Jan 3, 2025 10:23 am

OOC:

If you're moving, you are technically not on hold anymore. It's either moving to the stairs or standing in the doorway

OOC:

Hi! I think I'm back on GP finally. Still catching up on my games, but I have read this thread fully and I think I'm ready to get back in action:) Next week(from Thursday) I think I will be back at full speed:) As I understand the situation, it will now be the turn of the uglies before Li will be able to act. But I think Li will manage to say something like following before his turn will come.

"Look at the wooden platform and its wooden floor! Maybe we could gather all those abominations on it, just in front of the door and... use all this wood as fuel for some great, cleansing bonfire?! Firing it up by our magicians powers?" - Li wanted to draw everyone's attention to his idea.

"If only I would have taken some alchemy potion from Master Quink, that would burst in flames while thrown." - Li cached himself again this day on thought about usefulness of Alchemy.

"I really have to dig deeper in this subject. Time to use science also for more practical purposes!" - he concluded and promised himself.

Wess raises an eyebrow at Li's suggestion. "You want to start a fire, in an enclosed space, and immolate your enemies? Is this calm collected Li talking, or blinded by grief Li?"

OOC:

Chigaru will stay put and see if the enemies come out.

Jan 5, 2025 6:58 pm

One of the creatures rushes forward while the rest shuffles up the stairs. Their weird legs are apparently not built for speed. It bites at Wess, and he just barely parries the attack.

With one of them getting into view, Khel lets loose with a fiery bolt of doom that does its usual engulfing. It barely have time to scream in pain as it is reduced to cinders.

You hear Shalelu behind you calling out. "There's a hole in the floor. They're coming through!"

OOC:

The creatures only have a pace of 4 so they are shambling almost zombie-like towards you. One is dealt with, and you are all up. Khel's action has been resolved. Still hard for anyone to see anyone but the first creature. Spent my last GM bennie on the one climbing out of the hole, he failed his climb check.

One tries to intimidate Wess, and he need to beat a TN 4 Spirit roll or be Distracted (-2 to Trait rolls until end of next round).

Saldrina prepares a fireball and holds it until the creatures get closer, then throws it at blue.

EDIT: Spending a benny to reroll the attack roll.

EDIT 2: I think that is a raise, so I'm adding a d6 for damage.

Saldrina moves back into the hallway and fires a bolt at one of the creatures that is coming at you from behind. While it hits, this one is able to shrug off the effect. It shrieks in anger.

At first Li says nothing. Then he shakes his had with self-disappointment and says:
"You are right. What was I thinking?"
Than he immediately runs out of the room, to where Shalelu is and if able to reach next enemy: he tries to slash him with his katana. If not he throws his shurikens. If no monster is visible he Holds his throw until one of the monstrosities is visible.

Wess doesn't need any encouragement, as still without its benefit he cleaves the one right in front of him.

Then Li runs down the other hallway and sends a shuriken at the one attacking from behind. It hits and the creature yells in pain.

OOC:

Chigaru left to act if you wish.

Shalelu Andosana

Shalelu quickly fires an arrow at the shaken creature and while her arrow graces it, it is able to shrug it off. Not a good enough hit to pierce its leathery skin.

OOC:

Another Benny to the group and Saldrina gets +2 to all actions this round.

Once again you drew well and Saldrina, Khel, Chigaru and Grimwulf is up. Let me know if you want to hold your action.
