Kassius:
I believe Angati only summoned one Auroch, but I like the image of it being a whole herd!
OOC: I love the image of it being a whole herd as well, much more funny. :D But are you sure about this? When I look up the level III summon monster spell and click on the auroch link, it takes me to a page where a herd of the animals are described.
Undeterred by the quick demise of her cattle, Angati holds her ground and starts casting another summoning spell.
Kibeti whips around and tears into dino A (23 damage).
V'sesslin had only just managed to get back on his feet when another of Kassius' arrows slams into his chest (16 hp damage) only an inch away from where the first hit. The snake man wheels back and drops to one knee again as the splurting of green blood from his chest intensifies and he lets out a low hissing moan. The damage that he has now taken would have incapacitated any human sorcerer, but V'sesslin doesn't have a drop of human blood in him...
Vanthus looks over from the neighbouring vessel and sighs.
"V'sesslin, I hired you because everyone in Shuttlecove[*] said you were the best. So get the frac up AND START EARNING YOUR KEEP!"
The half-man half-snake thing known as V'sesslin makes a loud hissing noise and mutters a half-dozen dark oaths in his own tongue, but he gets back to his feet alright. He moves behind the two savage pirates activating the wake portal on the prow in order to get some (soft) cover and then casts his spell.
A small ball of blazing light flies out of his hands and heads straight for the back of the front mast of the Sea Wyvern. At the instant it connects with the woodwork, it turns into a incandescent ball of blazing fire, enveloping those at the prow of the vessel (Angati, Kassius, Celene, Urol & Skald).
[*] Shuttlecove is the infamous 'capital' of the 'Kingdom of Ierendi', the loose collection of pirates isles far to the north-west on the other side of the Sea of Dread.
17:55, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 34 using 9d6. Fireball damage.
OOC: Those of you effected my make a DC19 reflex save to only take half damage.
Skald throws himself to the deck and hides from as much as the blaze as he can (17 hp), but for a few seconds he is trapped inside the heaving flames of the fireball - when it clears his clothes have almost been burnt off and his back is charcoal black. The sailor somehow remains conscious but he doesn't get up (dropped down to -11 hp).
Vanthus is close enough to the fireball to almost be singed by the warmth. He cheers!
"That's more like it V'sesslin. Well done!" Lavinia's cries bring his attention back to what is happening on the Blue Nixie.
"Hang on Lavinia! I am coming for you!" he yells, genuine concern showing in his voice. He looks across the deck to where Liamae is getting ready to cast her next spell.
"But first there is something else to take care of..." he mutters.
Vanthus unfolds his wings and leaps into the air, spinning to avoid Kibeti's attacks. Then he half leaps, half flies the 25' feet to land almost on top of the Jade Raven sorceress.
OOC: Okay, he flies over the top, so he isn't trying to go through any of your squares, but passes close enough that he would normally trigger lots of AoO's. He tries to use acrobatics to avoid this. He moves at full speed so the DC is increased by 10.
Avoid Kibeti DC = KibetiCMD + 10 = 30
Avoid Kinstal DC = KinstalCMD + 10 + 2 = 33
Avoid Logan DC = LoganCMD + 10 + 2 + 2 = 34
Avoid Alohan DC = AlohanCMD + 10 +2 +2 +2 = 40
18:10, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 25,34,36,33 using 1d20+17,1d20+17,1d20+17,1d20+17. Vanthus acrobatics checks x 4.
Vanthus manages to avoid triggering AoO from Kinstal and Logan, but triggers Kibeti and Alohan.
Alohan doesn't hesitate to slice through the air and cuts Vanthus in the leg (12 hp).
OOC: I will let Kibeti make his own AoO.
Vanthus lands almost on top of the hapless sorceress while calling out in a dark tongue that only one other person understands... Celene recognises it as Abyssal. ('Charge'/fly + smite good). Liamae's right arm is almost ripped off from the blow (17 hp).
The thunder lizards mindlessly attack the targets in front of them. The four slowed lizards only attack one and less effectively (-1 to attack).
Dino A (slowed): Hits Kinstal for 11 hp, make a DC18 fort save or get savage fever
Dino B (slowed): Hits Logan for 7 hp, Logan already has savage fever
Dino C (slowed): Hits Alohan for 12 hp, he successfully saves vs the savage fever
Dino D (normal): Hits Kaskus for 20 hp, he successfully saves vs the savage fever
Dino E (slowed): Hits Tolin for 7 hp, he successfully saves vs the savage fever
Dino F (normal): Hits Urol for 19 hp, make a DC18 fort save or get savage fever
OOC: Okay, the rest of you are up now. That is Celene, Logan, Urol, Kassius, Kibeti, Kinstal and Alohan + the Jade Ravens & Lavinia.
