>>180628>Crit with a harpoon"~Ooaaooh!" Posey moans, as the spear impales her with its barbed tip, tickling her dead nerves
Her eyes glow brighter, as her masochism triggers
>>180631Posey is flat-footed, so that confirmation roll would hit her, the weapon skewering right through where her heart would be. Too bad she's not using it right now.
>>180621>>180622I thought you were talking about the harpoon. I'm dumb.
>>180623The anatomical term for equines is withers.
>>180615Sure. I can attempt to stun one while you disarm another.
>>180633
Oh
Nevermind then.
At least I can still charge now.
It's Posey's turn now, right?
>>180634On Brie's turn, he will make a move action, say a few words to Cavaliere, and then hold his action for Cavaliere's turn, changing his initiative score to match for future rounds. In this way both characters can move prior to each other's action, or vice versa, for maximum flanking shenanigens.
>>180636Yeah, Posey's next, then Red, Zeeb, White, Brie, and finally Cavaleire. Presumably Kira will join in next round.
>>180631^^
She starts her journey ho... back to the church.
Her tongue rubs against the inside of her lips. She can almost taste her favorite poison. She shakes her head and gets back on task.
She whistles the psalm 236, a somber melody that ends on a happy note but she never whistles that part.
You are given free reign to decide the lore for this song, if you feel like that is. >>180638Okay, I had this elaborate attack with which I intended to splatter him all over the wall, but are we going to move forward with the Disarm check?
>>180634Ah, nice. Then I know. ^^
>>180640Preferably yes. The griffon isn't the problem, the crown he's wearing
is.
>>180632~10 damage
>>180639Vir knows she needs alcohol to, you know, kill any amoebas that may have survived in her stomach. Gotta keep up that reputation.
Vir makes it back.
Heather approaches, clearly very surprised.
"You found it?!
>>180637We can do this, but I won't be able to play after this combat round. I will allow you to use Cavaliere's actions for the remainder of this combat, as long as they are prioritized to be nonlethal for the sake of capturing the griffons alive. They are under mind control but might continue fighting after it is removed.
Alright, let's go the pacifist route and not kill him just yet.
Posey moves towards red, flanking him with Silver, and attempts her own disarm check. Since he's already made an attack of opportunity, he doesn't get a second unless he had Combat Reflexes. Moreveover, since a harpoon is a reach weapon, he can't attack Posey while adjacent anyway.
She makes a Disarm check
[1d20+12 = (15+12) = 27]As she attacks, the bones on her armor rattle and she makes a free action demoralize, against Red, her eyes glowing, her mane standing on end, her horn crackling with power, and her head illuminating with a corona of dying stars as she lets out a dreadful cackle-whinny
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARG!"Intimidate
[1d20+18 = (7+18) = 25]And this triggers her Dreadful Wrath, all enemies must make a DC 22 Will save or be Shaken
>>180643Unf
>>180640>>180644>>180642Brie is a grappler on par with the noodle, we will have this wrapped up within the round
>>180643>Vir knows she needs alcohol to, you know, kill any amoebas that may have survived in her stomach.^^
Where are we know? What's the scene like? You don't need to anything fancy btw, I just enjoy having a place to work with.
"I know right," Vir says, and looks away with a slight rose tint to her cheeks. "I just fumbled around a bit in the waters. Have no idea why I thought it be there. But... Maybe,
she was with me."
>>180645If Posey succeeds on her check, she would like to use her unseen servant to place the tiara on her head.
>>180645Opposed, moving his harpoon to attempt a block
[1d20+12 = (13+12) = 25]>>180647Vir, I believe, has moved back to the basilica, which is lined in marble and has a neoclassical style. There is a greatly better description somewhere...
gasp"It's true. It really was in the water. How did you find it? It's incredible..." She smiles "Maybe Celestia
is with you." She adds, "I wonder where the rest of it is."
>>180650Ripping the harpoon out of Silver's shoulder to attempt this block, it should be noted, causes Silver a
lot of pain.
>>180650Wait, I miscalculated the -2 penalty from Posey's barding
This is a tie: it all comes down to if her intimidate check and/or frightful presence succeed in debuffing him (you would roll that before the opposed roll).
>>180650>There is a greatly better description somewhere...Vir shuts her eyes and grins. "Where do you want this? In the church?"
>>180645His eyes change color
>>180652I think reroll
[1d20+12 = (13+12) = 25]>>180653"Yes, yes, put it in the church. I would say put it where the statue would be, near the door, but uh, we haven't got the rest of the statue."
>>180655Okay, but is he affected by my fear abilities?
[1d20+10 = (12+10) = 22] Alright, since I must leave right now, I'll just pre-announce my attack.
Cavaliere moves at the black griffon (with the gun) and balls up a talon into a fist. With surprising power he punches him right in the head. Did the yellow griffon already get an attack of opportunity in? I'll leave it to you to sort out.
Stunning fist: [1d20+4 = (7+4) = 11]
>>180657Uhm,... Brie is gonna grapple him, so all you have to do is snatch the crown, assuming this is unresolved
Okay
With my turn over, I would like to use my Unseen Servant to scatter a bag of marbles in his square.
DC 15 Balance check, to avoid falling over
>>180656Something is wrong with him, which seems to make him resistant. But either way, he rolls higher here. He only just barely manages to avoid Posey knocking off the crown, which does move on his head.
Now, it's red's turn.
He speaks in a language even more incomprehensible than his usual speech, and to his left, the air moves, and space itself contorts until there is black smoke, which then expands into fire.
What is left behind, is an absolutely
massive black, dog-like creature with a flat face.
It immediately moves forward and bites at Posey
[1d20+10 = (3+10) = 13] >>180657>>180655Are the rest of the enemies shaken by Posey's Frightful Presence?
>>180657That might hit, if he fails the balance check.
>>180660Does he fall over, from the marbles beneath his feet?
>shadow mastiff"~Awww, so cute."
Is it a free action to pet the dog?
Yellow:
Yellow tries to stab Silver
[1d20+4 = (15+4) = 19]>>180659Dude, no. You've literally never written the word "marbles" anywhere on /vx/ before that post.
>>180661They aren't acting on their own volition
>>180660Oh yeah, I'm going to roll Arcana to identify this monster:
[1d20+11 = (10+11) = 21]And another Arcana check, to identify what Red just did:
[1d20+11 = (2+11) = 13] >>180663>noOh fine.
>Fear doesn't affect themThere goes half my spells... Oh well.
Defiant's turn
>>180663>>180593Silver seems to be hit... again
[1d6+1 = (4+1) = 5]>>180664Something like a yeth hound
>>180663Didn't yellow already act this round when he stabbed Posey?
>>180628 >>180655When walking over to the big doors of the church, the doors stretch infinitely up into the sky as pillar of black wood whereas the world disappears into a red backdrop. Psalm 236 snakes its way into her mind as it's played by an organ in another church, in another time.
"Pew Seat, a filly with an ordinary name but extraordinary capacity in her heart, for love..."
Reality returns.
She pants a few times and pushes one of the doors aside. When inside, she turns to Heather.
"Hehe, maybe you ought to lead since you know where we're going," she says and forces a smile onto her lips.
>>180667That's right. It was White moving this time. And white may actually be closer to Posey...
Both are closer to Brie, but Brie doesn't even look armed, so they aren't going to attack him >>180669Awwww...
"Yes." The filly says. "You're wet, do you need to dry off? Do you need something?"
Okay, Defiant Dust actually goes before White
>>180614Wha- REEEEEEEEEE!
Dust snorts and rolls his eyes at the collective group. He's gonna give that unicorn a peice of his mind at some point for being so rash, but perhaps this will serve as enough of a lesson.
He hefts up his flail, and with a short chant through gritted teeth, slams it into the nearest structural beam to him as the hilt glows very faintly. The beam rings out as normal at first, but as it tapers off the vibration grows stronger, until they too start to fade and-
GONGThe beam rings out as if a bell, except much much louder. Painfully loud actually. Dust has cast sound burst, and unfortunately allies are affected as well as enemies, incurring 1d8 damage on everypone else in the room and a DC 16 fort save or stunned for one turn. Let's hope this damage is low and only the enemies fail their fort saves.
Silver
[1d8 = 2]Yellow
[1d8 = 6]Black
[1d8 = 5]Posey
[1d8 = 8]Red
[1d8 = 3]White
[1d8 = 8]Brie
[1d8 = 8]Cavaleire
[1d8 = 3] >>180676>>180677Thankfully for Silver, he's in enough pain from the harpoon having been shoved into his shoulder and pulled back out again that he hardly notices the ringing in his ears and the trickles of blood running down the sides of his head.
Based Sound Burst enjoyer.
"Fuck, that zigger is loud!" Posey hisses, but remains steadfast
Whelp, everyone roll Fortitude saves
[1d20+5 = (18+5) = 23]
[1d20+3 = (17+3) = 20]
[1d20+2 = (5+2) = 7]
[1d20+2 = (15+2) = 17]
>>180671Ah, Heather was the filly. I thought it was the mare. ^^
Do you need something? The filly's voice repeats in her head, bouncing around.
She shakes her head.
"Yeah, maybe a towel. But I intend to train a bit before any potential sermons. Are there any sermons today? Maybe, I'll just dry off after training so that we don't need several towels."
>>180676I'm immune to the save, but ouch, a max damage roll, that bypasses her damage reduction.
Oh wait, I forgot I had SR. Make a caster level check to see if you affect Posey and the dog monster.
Cavaliere would attempt a stunned fist that misses...
But that hardly matters, as Brie goes in for a grapple...
But Brie failed his fort save and has been flashbanged by Defiant Dust, so...
Silver's turn (assuming white takes the same action as listed before
>>180666"A yeth hound, from Tartarus!" Posey shouts to the party
"Be wary, its howls can drive you mad. Mortal weapons won't work against it..."
She turns to silver
>>180679"But your sword will. Take care of the dog. I'll handle the bird."
