Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deeps

Jack tries to go over #e, but fails the first time. He tries again with his other move action, if he succeeds he will move south as far as possible. Zombies e, $, f, and g all get a single AoO.
15:23, Today: JACK rolled 17 using 1d20+14 with rolls of 3. DC 27 vs #g.
15:22, Today: JACK rolled 16 using 1d20+14 with rolls of 2. DC 25 vs #f .

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deeps

#e bites at JACK as he fails to find an opening to move by it. The attack is as clumsy as JACK's attempt to run by it, resulting in both of them ending up back where they started. AoO against his first failed tumble check.
14:28, Today: teslas rolled 6 using 1d20+5. #e AoO flank bite vs JACK.

JACK attempts the action again, this time successfully. #g clips him as he moves by.
14:32, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 25 using 1d20+11. DC 12 Fortitude (bite disease).
14:31, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 27 using 1d20+11. DC 12 Fortitude.

14:31, Today: teslas rolled 3 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
14:31, Today: teslas rolled 23 using 1d20+5. #g flank bite AoO.
14:31, Today: teslas rolled 14 using 1d20+5. #f flank bite AoO.
14:30, Today: teslas rolled 12 using 1d20+6. #$ flank bite AoO.


#5, #6, #9, and #0 stand up out of the water.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deeps

DAI looks to his side and sees some of these  things getting in behind him. "Ah hell no..." DAI uses Fast on himself as a swift action, he then fires off another blast of stone, hoping to deter some of the ghouls before dashing through the trees far as he could.

12:51, Today: DAI rolled 31 using 2d12+8. forgot not PBS.
12:51, Today: DAI rolled 9 using 1d20+5. Stone(RTA) vs Ghoul x

MP 39/54

EDIT: Down till I am about at the trees, then start going down-right

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

DAI's magical stones miss their mark by a comfortable margin for #x.

#?, #", and #! stand up from the water. Their eyes, too, are a glowing deep blue.

#7 and #8 run to near the tree line, close to ZEIG.

#a, #b, and #c stand up out of the water. #m's head only pokes up.

#d advances, trying to cut JACK off.

#% moves forward 30', and casts a spell. Spellcraft #7 JACK's eyes close and his head bobs downward.

#& advances extremely quickly out of the water and ends its movement directly in front of JACK. Spellcraft #8

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep



#w runs up closer to the treeline.

#x takes a 5' step to the southwest, notices JACK's lack of movement, and leans in to sever his spinal column with its jaws.
21:39, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 24 using 1d20+11. DC 24 Fortitude vs. insta-death.
21:39, Today: teslas rolled 15 using 2d8+6. #x coup de grace vs. JACK.
21:40, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 28 using 1d20+11. DC 15 Fortitude vs. Disease.
21:40, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 13 using 1d20+11. DC 15 Fortitude vs. Paralysis.
21:39, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 24 using 1d20+11. DC 24 Fortitude vs. insta-death.

A nasty crunching and tearing noise is made as its teeth pierce his neck and grate against his spine, but JACK's neck holds true. JACK remains motionless, however.

ZEIG sees this, but is unable to move closer to JACK without putting himself in a situation that would lead to assured death, being out in the field completely alone at this point. He begrudgingly withdraws from his attacker, then turns and looks on JACK in horror.

Eighteen or so creatures enter the party's field of view from the east and west.  They are fast approaching JACK and the treeline. And will enter this round. Behind them are hundreds more.

I have, or will shortly, run out of things to enumerate the enemies. At this point everything further will simply be addressed as "1" or "2" or "3" depending on what type of creature it is.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

#e charges directly south, but through some fluke misses him completely in its haste.
21:53, Today: teslas rolled 6 using 1d20+5. #e charge flank bite vs. JACK.
Side note:
You can't be flanked when you're paralyzed (or otherwise helpless). This is a "house-rule", but I can explain why I do this if you care to ask or make a fuss about it.


#f moves down and bites the immobilized JACK-like statue.
21:56, Today: teslas rolled 4 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
21:56, Today: teslas rolled 10 using 1d20+3. #f bite vs. JACK.


#g does the same, though JACK's magical ward from Protect nearly deflects the attack.
21:58, Today: teslas rolled 4 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
21:57, Today: teslas rolled 7 using 1d20+3. #g bite vs. JACK.


#h, somewhat hampered by the magical difficult terrain, merely moves up next to him.

#s, #t, #u, and #v all move out onto land as far as they can.

#@ moves forward and casts a spell.

## moves up and casts a spell. Spellcraft #9 Purple tendrils of light flow from JACK's mouth, ears and eyes to ##.

#$ moves 60' toward the trees.

#i and #j move up to GRIM and attempt to bite him.
22:10, Today: teslas rolled 5 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
22:10, Today: teslas rolled 9 using 1d20+3. crit confirm.
22:10, Today: teslas rolled 23 using 1d20+3. #i bite vs. GRIM.

22:11, Today: teslas, on behalf of GRIM, rolled 21 using 1d20+11. DC 12 Fortitude.
22:12, Today: teslas rolled 7 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
22:11, Today: teslas rolled 9 using 1d20+3. crit confirm..
22:11, Today: teslas rolled 23 using 1d20+3. #j bite vs GRIM.

22:12, Today: teslas rolled 15 using 1d20+11. DC 12 Fortitude.
Again, #i's and #j's teeth find small gaps in his armor, but can't quite reach his skin. The sites tingle nonetheless.

#k works its way around to within striking distance of JACK, and joins the circle of open, teeth-filled mouths.
22:14, Today: teslas rolled 10 using 2d6+4. crit bite damage.
22:14, Today: teslas rolled 13 using 1d20+3. crit confirm.
22:14, Today: teslas rolled 23 using 1d20+3. #k bite vs JACK.

It catches an artery in JACK's shoulder. An alarming amount of blood begins to flow down his back.

#l runs directly south, nearly making it to GRIM.

#z moves down next to ZEIG, but its skin begins to dissolve. It screams in what probably isn't pain, but anger.

#1 moves to GRIM, teeth clanking off of his armor like all the rest.
22:20, Today: teslas rolled 5 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
22:20, Today: teslas rolled 22 using 1d20+3. #1 bite vs GRIM.


#2 moves closer to the tree line.

#3 charges GRIM.
22:22, Today: teslas rolled 3 using 1d6+2. bite damage.
22:22, Today: teslas rolled 21 using 1d20+5. #3 bite charge vs. GRIM.


GRIM tingles all over, like after drinking too much bad, soured ale.

#4 moves in to further complete the box forming around GRIM.

JACK stands, motionless, being torn to shreds.

LEO is literally lost for words. He can't really even react to the teeming masses of undead. He just stands there, slack-jawed and horrified.

[OOC] I'll hold action until... Jeez, I don't know. Until something good happens?

DAI's turn, LEO delays until dinner.

Also, LEO, you can't quite see JACK on account of that giant tree in front of you. Maybe take a 5' step if you're into that sort of thing.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

DAI, panicking a little from how exactly fucktastic this had turned out to be, tries his best at killing the nearest Ghoul to ZEIG so he can do another one of those balls of undead-slaying fury. He then turns and runs, not wanting to leave JACK behind but...honestly not knowing what else to do. "This is SO fucked up..."

08:49, Today: DAI rolled 14 using 2d12+9. Damage(PBS).
08:49, Today: DAI rolled 12 using 1d20+6. Stone(RTA)(PBS) vs Ghoul z.
Rough terrain on the ghoul's square, and to the right.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

LEO:
The problem with delaying your turn in PbP is that it's hard to tell the DM when you want to enter in between the monster's turns. Taking your instructions literally, we won't have to worry about that. Feel free to break in at any time, however.


DAI, you weren't clear with your movement, so I'm just going to put you 30' further south.

The magical difficult terrain out in the tall grasses near the lake dissipates.

DAI knocks #z over with magical stones which then pile up on the ground. #z, once it hits the ground, begins to melt slowly. It lets out a horrible stench.

#?, #", and #! run up close to the tree line.

#7 and #8 run up to just inside the tree line and then stop. They yell in some incomprehensible language.

Another large swarm of creatures approaches from both sides.

#a, #b, #c, and #m all advance closer to the tree line.

#d places its mouth near JACK's belly, and slowly attempts to disembowel him where he stands.
03:18, Today: teslas rolled 9 using 2d6+4. #d coup de grace vs. JACK.
03:18, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 26 using 1d20+11. DC 18 Fort vs. Insta Death.
The ghoul tears a large gash into his front-side, but it doesn't quite cleanly slice all of his abdominal muscles.

#% runs up closer to the tree line.

#& attempts to finish what #d started.
03:21, Today: teslas rolled 8 using 2d6+4. #& coup de grace vs. JACK.
03:21, Today: teslas, on behalf of JACK, rolled 17 using 1d20+11. DC 17 Fort vs. Insta Death.
JACK lives through the attempt, but his body, although paralyzed, no longer has the blood pressure to keep him upright. He collapses to the ground.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

Leo creeps up to the embattled Grim, ending up in the square immediately to the left of Zeig.

Grim again withdraws to the south as fast as his stubby legs can take him.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

GRIM beats feet away from the mass of undead forming around him before most of them can react. He throws one's mouth off with his shield, and another mis-times its attack and misses altogether.
18:01, Today: teslas rolled 6 using 1d20+3. #4 bite AoO vs. GRIM.
18:00, Today: teslas rolled 14 using 1d20+3. #1 bite AoO vs. GRIM.


#w moves up into the tree line next to LEO. It screams in fury as it begins to melt, though apparently the tempting sight of an injured LEO was enough to endure such a thing.
18:08, Today: teslas rolled 10 using 1d8+3. bite damage.
18:08, Today: teslas rolled 22 using 1d20+5. #w bite vs. LEO.

18:09, Today: teslas, on behalf of LEO, rolled 17 using 1d20+8. DC 15 vs. Disease.
18:09, Today: teslas, on behalf of LEO, rolled 24 using 1d20+8. DC 15 vs. Paralysis.


#x bends down over JACK's body and extinguishes what little vitality was left.
18:10, Today: teslas rolled 14 using 2d8+6. #x coup de grace vs. JACK.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

ZEIG, suspending his feelings of remorse and disbelief, takes a 5' step to the southeast. Not wanting to leave LEO to the same fate as JACK, he casts Harm.
20:42, Today: teslas, on behalf of ZEIG, rolled 13 using 1d8+5. harm damage MP: 37/53.
He then pulls out his staff. Which we haven't seen in like, forever.

#i, #4, #a, and some of the ones that are now innumerable explode into dust. Unfortunately, the trees in the forest block the effect from striking many of the creatures it otherwise would have.

Any parts of the map toward the lake that are no longer shown are assumed to be completely covered, as in, at least one per 5' square, by enemy creatures.

#e, #f, #g, and #h half drag, half dismember JACK's corpse toward the lake.

#s runs into the trees up next to LEO. Its skin begins to dissolve slightly.

#t runs closer to the treeline, from where it was near JACK's place of short-lived rest.

#u runs into the trees next to ZEIG. It, too, begins to melt.

#v, maybe not so blood-thirsty (but doubtful), only moves up a small bit.

#@ runs south-east 30' and casts a spell.
LEO's head droops down as he falls into a gentle slumber.

## and #$ run south, ending their movement behind a tree relative to ZEIG.

#k moves further south.

#1, #2, and #3 turn and run back toward the lake, out of sight into the swarm of undead approaching.

The large group labeled "1" advances closer to the treeline, and more pile into the field.

#5 and #6 move toward the tree line then stop rather abruptly.

#9 runs ahead of the approaching horde to the tree line's edge.

#0 follows some of the others, moving back toward the lake out of sight.

LEO sleeps peacefully.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

DAI fires an arrow at LEO, trying to wake him up. He unfortnately, pulled the string back rather far. DAI curses himself for ever wanting anything to do with this lake...and is likely going toget an earful from ZEIG later about it. DAI continues his fleeing the scene.

13:53, Today: DAI rolled 8 using 1d8. Well...huh.
13:38, Today: DAI rolled 8 using 1d20+2. arrow to wake LEO(please don't kill him).

13:53, Today: DAI rolled 1 using 1d20-2. if I can, NL bow shot vs LEO.


OOC: I think an 8 hits when he's asleep...though he doesn't act again until a full round later anyways...

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

DAI, I am going to make you move about 30' to the west to line up this shot.

The mixture of moonlight-level illumination and aiming around trees distract DAI. He plants an arrow squarely in LEO's back despite trying to aim for the meat of his thigh. LEO drops to the ground, being unaware of the entire process going from sleeping to unconsciousness.

#? moves out into the open relative to ZEIG, and casts a spell.

#" stays where it is, and casts a spell. Purple tendrils make their way from LEO's body to its own.

#! advances and casts a spell.

#7 and #8 remain where they are. They scream in a language none of you understand, though what they're saying sounds similar to one another.

More creatures pile into the party's view.

More injured creatures from ZEIG's spell retreat into the approaching mass from the lake.

#% stays where it is and casts a spell.

#& moves forward and casts a spell.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

#w bites out LEO's throat, slaying him instantly.
20:53, Today: teslas rolled 18 using 2d8+6. #w coup de grace vs. LEO.

#x runs up to the tree line.

ZEIG withdraws and begins trying to catch up with GRIM.

A couple of the creatures chase for a very, very short distance, then either dissolve into a lump or retreat back into the field.

The party stops running about 30 seconds later and attempts to see the situation, but can't through the trees. You all slowly make your way back to the lake. Most of the creatures are back in the water, which has begun to uniformly glow once again. There are two paths in the grass that end at the lake which have been bent over flat, but otherwise no sign of JACK or LEO's body.

You gain 50 Experience Points for the ordeal.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

DAI catches his breath, before looking to GRIM, then looking to ZEIG. He takes his hat off...realizing that his damn curiosity killed an old friend, this time maybe for good, and an innocent who had trusted them so freely. "I...I need to sit down..." DAI meanders over to a stump, or rock or something, and begins taking this all in.

Re: Chapter 3-B: Across the Aldi and Into The Forgotten Deep

ZEIG simply stares at the lake in silence. He moves as if he is going to begin speaking a few times, but no words form.
