In reply to Mancini (msg # 288):

Being truly evil and unwilling to negotiate, it runs gibbering toward Mancini!

Oly steps further away and draws another large knife to throw

Mancini smiles ruefully. "Good. By attacking me, it will leave itself open to attacks from all of you."

Mancini then thrust his weapon at the creature, landing a direct hit.


(Ooc:00:05, Today: Mancini rolled 1 using 1d6-1.  Damage.
23:49, Yesterday: Mancini rolled 5 using 3d6.  Rapier 13 (AoA: Determined +4)= 17(-1 SM=16).)

Grimaldi likewise, keeps back. Having listened to the warnings about the creature, he expected an explosion, and didn't want to be caught in it.

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 293):

Are there bats attacking anything else?

In reply to Aoife (msg # 294):

Sedric will direct his sword to attack it!

Umm, what do I roll for the sword attacking from a distance?

Ardenas draws a quarrel from his hip quiver and begins to cast.

[Private to GM: 06:55, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 3 using 3d6.  Winged Knife, roll to cast (12).
06:56, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 15 using 3d6.  Winged Knife, second crit check.  No second crit, but no fatigue cost.]

In reply to Sederic (msg # 295):

Meikka has a 15 to hit, it is SM -1

In reply to Narrator (msg # 297):

Meikka attacks...[Private to GM: Rolled 3 under to hit. Does it use my ST for damage?]

Ardenas lets his quarrel fly.

[Private to GM: 04:57, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 8 using 3d6.  Winged Knife, roll to hit (15 - SM1 - range).
04:58, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 2 using 1d6.  Damage (impaling) .]

He holds his knife ready to throw, but waits to see what will happen with the animated sword.

In reply to Sederic (msg # 298):

Meika connects with the creature, even as Ardenas' bolt strikes it, injuring it, but not detonating the demonic critter.

Meikka attacks with 15 ST when acting alone, but its kills don't count against its need for bloodshed.

Grimaldi kept alert, ready to begin casting if need be. He also kept his distance, waiting like one lighting off fireworks, in Little Sahud.

In reply to Grimaldi (msg # 302):

Ah, Ok. Updated Character sheet, where I noticed it mentioned a skill of 18. Which number should I use?

Ardenas draws another quarrel while scanning the room for any other enemies.

Mancini retreats for the moment. While he considers his options, he grabs his dwarven whetstone and sharpens his rapier.

In reply to Sederic (msg # 303):

Miekka attacks at 18, and with 15 ST, thrusting for 1d+3 iirc. So roll, and you hit on a 16 or less.



Kalima waits for the sword to clear before advancing with her spear. The creature, ignoring the o5her's attacks, charges giggling at her.

Seeing the imp's charge, Ardenas doesn't wait to cast again, but simply throws the quarrel at the giggling creature like a dart.

[Private to GM: 19:28, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 9 using 3d6.  Throwing (roll to hit, 15 - SM-1 - range).
19:31, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 4 using 1d6-2.  Damage (impaling).
19:31, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 12 using 3d6.  Hit Location.]

These things are less fragile than they look, apparently..
Grimaldi thought to himself, as he watched the thing.

With his rapier sharpened, he takes off his heavy cloak and readies it for battle.

(Ooc: Where is Norman in all of this?)

In reply to Ardenas Barehand (msg # 307):

Sorry, was waiting on the damage roll. As the dancing sword stikes it, the creature, with an earth shattering KABOOM, bursts into a three yard ball of flame, with fragments of bone flying. The sword is flung back ontonthe floor of the tavern.
Those at the periphery  take 2 points burning before DR.

Norman was warding Mancini and covering a two yard field in front of his master.
(He is under Mancini's control, you can post for him)

Grimaldi barely flinches, as he had been expecting an explosion. He had taken the care to stay  back, after listening to Kalima's warnings about the vile thing.

Mancini braces for impact, placing his heavy cloak over his face and vitals. If hit, the cloak will lower damage to 1 point.

(Ooc: No, for some reason I can post as Kalima, but not as Norman.)

In reply to Mancini (msg # 312):

Corrected

Oly had moved well away and I don't think gets burned...
