Her eyes descend on the stone. A growl echoed as Ira began to advance, eyes of murderous intent. Her sword hung to her side, decieving others of its readiness.

"Speak up, creatures, or we will strike! What business do you have in Hania?"

[spoiler]Initiative (1d20+3=16)

Ira moves up to the left of the throne, behind the 4th pillar but after the third, one square from the space in between the pillars (35' < 40' move) and activates her stance (Awesome Beauty), so all enemies within 30' must make DC 16 will saves or gain a step of fear unless if they're immune.

She also repeats her message in all four languages she knows: Common, Elven, Auran, and Sylvan.

If the enemies approach, she'll activate her Ferocity as an immediate action, making a demoralize attempt as a part of her rage: Intimidate (1d20+15=16)

Positioning himself with his companions on either side, Caden lets a few flames lick his lips as he stares at the creatures, adding his own personal touch to Ira's threat. "Ye heard the lass, what are ye?"

The creatures chitter and grin, not responding to their called queries.

To Caden, the remnants of the regalia that they wear suggests grand formality, of coming from a noble past that has crumbled away into almost nothing, one of much former power.

The blinding light seared into Ira's light sensitive eyes, and with but a simple flare everything became blinded from view.

Being closest to the lightsource, Caden can't manage to avert his eys quickly enough and the bright light overload his synapses. Growling "Gah, d'ye think thatta save ye?", he advance forward and breathes flames to where he belives the creatures are standing.

The warrior tried to desperately regain her vision, but she found herself at a loss. Regardless, she inched forward, placing her blade in front of her, anticipating attacks.

Ira tried to desperately regain her vision, but she found herself at a loss. Regardless, she inched forward, placing her blade in front of her, anticipating attacks.

Being closest to the lightsource, Caden can't manage to avert his eys quickly enough and the bright light overload his synapses. Growling "Gah, d'ye think thatta save ye?", he advance forward and breathes flames to where he belives the creatures are standing.

Twin bolts of magic fly from one creature, striking out at Caden, impacting into his body, each leaving painful lesions on his skin where they struck. The last creature points his finger at Canere, and a bolt of burning fire strikes forth, scorching a hole in his chest, cauterized instantly by the flame.

Seeing his friends affected by the flash of blinding light, Canere steps in front of them, draws his sword and creates a patch of slippery floor in front of him.


Action:
[spoiler]Monster - Cast a pyrotechnics spell on the torch. DC 14 Will save or be blinded.
Ira - Move forward 5', total defense.
Caden - Will still move foward at the speed possible (IIRC, half normal movement) and try to aim at the squares the creatures are still in, breath weapon as detailed below. 1d20+4=19, 1d20+4=19, 1d20+4=10. Catch the three aimed at with breath weapon. Ten damage a piece.
Monster - Magic Missle at Caden. Damage: 2d4+2=10
Monster - Scorching Ray at Canere. 1d20+5=12. Damage: 4d6=10.
Canere - Please mark the area on the map affected by grease.[/spoiler]

Ira, hearing the bolts of magic fly, barreled towards the throne. As her body hit the object shoulder-first, she crouched down, discerning where she could find cover amidst the whitewashed room, wary of the impending attack.

"Canere! Caden! You two okay?"

[spoiler]Let us know when duration ends. :P

Ira moves, crouches as a free action (kneeling, granting +2 to AC vs ranged), and total defensing again (+4 to AC, +2 additional AC from tumble ranks).

I'm fine Ira, Caden was blinded too, but he's toasting these critters as well as ever. Canere takes one hand off his sword and points toward the (bolded) nearest creature. A pair of star-shaped magic missiles streak from his fingers, striking it unerringly. He then attempts to communicate the location of the best group of monsters for Caden to fry.

"Dannae worry 'bout me! I can roast this entire room and ye'll still be alright, so they're as good as gonners!"
Dropping the ironic invention that played part in his perdicament, Caden advance and lets loose another gout of flame.

[spoiler]
Ok, so the map took me a while to figure out and it turns out I'm a bit of an idiot.

I was a bit uncertain about where exactly we where, so my position on the map is fucked up.

I screwed up when calculating exactly where we where as a group when posting my first round action due to not having a location on the map. Going at half movement speed, I can't be doing what I've been doing.

Either I'm at 1, 2 or 3.

1 is where I'm supposed to be, due to beeing blinded and moving at half speed. But no breath weapon then, since I can't reach. It also messes with Canere's action, since I don't think he wants to throw Grease where I'm standing. So that's a headache.

2 Is where I can cover two of the creatures in my line breath here, so just exlude one of the creatures from the damage taken last turn.
From 2, I have just enough movement to advance to 3 and catch the three of them this turn.
But technically I haven't got movement enough to be at 2 at the start of this turn, unless Caden walked forward whilst Ira and Canere held their ground before going into combat.

So, my point is that if Caden just advanced the round before combat began to start at 2, he's currently now at 3, breathing over the three nearest creatures with his cone breath. Last turn, he hit two of them with his line breath. It's the easiest modification since it won't mess with Ira's or Canere's actions, just TWS flavour quote about stepping infront of me. The other option is do this as it should be done, but that requires us to rewind this a round, preferably two. A retard replay just grinds pbp in the ground like gangsters grinds faces on the highway, so I'm asking Stratovarius, could you please let this slip? :embarrassed

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Free action to drop torch (right side of me), move action forward to 3, standard action to use breath weapon.
Damage 10,entangling damage 4

Ref 21 for half damage against the 10, the 4 is automatic for the two creatures suffering from entangling.

Relevant Entangle effects on the three creatures:
-2 to hit.
Concentration check 15+spell level to cast.
-4 to effective dexterity
-moving at half speed, no run or charge.

So stratoviarius, if they decide to sling more spells at us, they're going to need a Concentration check, aswell as having effectivly -4 to hit with spells depending on dexterity to hit.

Other relevant stats:
40/50 HP remaining

Combat, Round #2 Complete

A grin flashing across its toothy maw, the quickest of the monsters and his two companions turn inward, chanting and gesturing, before magic flashes across all three of their bodies. They walk towards Caden, unsheathing claws.

Ira, hearing the bolts of magic fly, barreled towards the throne. As her body hit the object shoulder-first, she crouched down, discerning where she could find cover amidst the whitewashed room, wary of the impending attack.

"Dannae worry 'bout me! I can roast this entire room and ye'll still be alright, so they're as good as gonners!"
Dropping the ironic invention that played part in his perdicament, Caden advance and lets loose another gout of flame.

The monsters near Caden slide forward, walking carefully around him before sliding into combat positions, their weapons prepared to do grevious damage. Those on the far side of the hall mutter amongst themselves for a moment, and seconds later another magic missle streaks forth to hit Canere, burning his arm.

Canere takes one hand off his sword and points toward the (bolded) nearest creature. A pair of star-shaped magic missiles streak from his fingers, striking it unerringly. He then attempts to communicate the location of the best group of monsters for Caden to fry.


Action:
[spoiler]Monster - Cast a spell, move towards Caden.
Ira - Moves forward and hides.
Caden - Free action to drop torch (right side of me), move action forward to 3, standard action to use breath weapon. Damage 10, entangling damage 4. Saves: 1d20+4=15, 1d20+4=12, 1d20+4=11.
Monster - Move around Caden.
Monster - Magic Missle Canere. 2d4+2=6
Canere - Magic Missle from gloves.[/spoiler]

Initiative:

Seeing the unharried creatures raining bespelled destruction down on him and his allies, Canere moves laterally and causes his form to become blurry and hard to see.
[spoiler]25 feet left and 5 feet diagonally left and up. This should put Canere right of the pillar above and left of Ira.

Hearing enemies all around him, Caden wastes no time turning around and breathes out an flame to cling and burn his opponents whilst quickly taking up his shield to protect himself.


[spoiler]http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2043743/
Move action to draw shield, standard action for breath weapon. Cone shape, but if I'm not mistaken I'll only nail one of them anyway. Ah well, things could be worse...
Aiming straight ahead, towards the creatures I've been roasting so far.
New Entangling Exhalation, damage 12, 2 rounds duration, same Ref. as always.
