I'm done with it.

Hey DM, I tried to find a rule for me attacking someone in a grapple but couldn't spot one. Am I able to move over and attack the dog on Ealga? If so, are there any penalties for my roll?

It looks like you can attack as normal, and the hound loses it's dex bonus to AC

Thanks Ealga. I did read all that, though, and I can't see any rules for someone who isn't involved with the grapple trying to hit someone who is. I don't want to join the grapple, I want to smack it with my longsword.

Yep, you can attack people in grapples, its actually easier because they take ac penalties (denied dex bonus) against anyone not involved in the grapple. Making a ranged attack against grappling people is dangerous though because your attack has equal chances to hit either party.

Sweet :)

Need to know if lonhro's attack killed the beast or not before I post

The Trollhound is still up.

Since the 'Orcs' have not gone, I assume I can not yet act.

No no, they went - the women are freaking out and the Chief used his actions to get up, get his weapon and free the hound. You're good to go.

Ok, now Ealga's 9 non-lethal will take the fight out of the dog. So its no longer a threat and lets go of Ealga.

Ah, so the other 'orcs' on the map are the female orcs, falling all over themselves.  I thought they were enemies.

What would happen if I cast my entangle spell in here, where there are no apparent plants.  Would it fail?  Reduced effect, in either area, duration, or something else?

The spell works in a 40 foot radius, so would cover 80 feet diameter.  Since I can't see the maps, can someone tell me if this would catch any allies, if used to it's full area.

(As ascii map would help.)

Ah Mellar, I forgot you can't see my oh so pretty maps usually (its been awhile). I'll see what I can do.

As for entangle it does need some kind of reasonable plant life to work so in a situation like this it won't help. That's not to say you won't find places where entangle will work as we go along, just not here.

I can only not see the maps from work.  Alas, it is where I do much of my posting.  I can see them fine from home. I saw the map at home.  Even if it would work down here, the room is too small. I would catch all of us in the effect.

Everything OK here?

Ya just waiting for dm :)

Technically true as I should have invoked the 48hr rule as far as Radoslav goes. Updating as I type.

Ouch! Stop hitting me!  Mom!  :)

Ok, I'll see if I can't hit Mordred next. Smacking around wizards is always good for a laugh.

Oh my....

Wow folks, way to roll high. That was quite the beatdown you just laid on the poor orc barbarian.

One more hit and I would have been down and out.  Cleric!

Everything OK here?

Sorry for the lack of consistency I'll try to improve.

As for current IC things, I just thought I'd drop a reminder that I think there are some healing potions and a CMW scroll floating around the party if healing is the only thing keeping you from continuing. Resting is fine too though.

Fight was worth 435xp so added to your previous total of 2350 you are all now sitting at: 2785xp.
