Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Thrir rose and readied his sword and shield. "Bah, Can a dwarf not sleep in peace!"

He then moved and engaged the nearest enemy troll.

Ascud was barking at the trolls. They looked big to him so he needed to make himself bigger. He didn't attack yet barking and looking over at Thrir to make sure he was up and about and waiting for any command.

OOC:

17:24, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 10 using 1d10+2.  Initiative (counts Dawi Drengi's speed factor).

17:27, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 17,10 using d20,d8+4 with rolls of 17,6.  to hit, damage.  (Hit AC -2 for 6 hp of damage....gonna be a long fight)

"Ha haa", Bofri screamed in laughter at Thrir's comment, "We are sleeping, friend.
This is the best dream I've had since the one with that Pork Belly Pie  ...
"
             as he charged the nearest gnarly-man with enthusiasm.

- rolled 10 using 1d10.  Initiative

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Initiative: 08:46, Today: Ymir son of Gunir rolled 6 using 1d10 ((6)).

Ymir saw what they were facing now that he was fully awake. In the air he heard Hunginn cawing.

"Thanks fer the warnin, ye sleepy rooster! Fat lot o'good it does now...Stay in the air and keep a black eye out fer any other beasties comin at us - we have work to do on the ground", he yelled at his Raven-Friend.

Ymir saw the size of the creatures and aimed his arm at one, above the heads of his companions, getting close enough to be within 30 feet and activated his Bracelet that stored his Chromatic Orb spell, calling upon its Ruby Red power on the creature attacking Evia.

Attack Roll: 09:07, Today: Ymir son of Gunir rolled 20 using 1d20+4 [+3 spell, +1 racial bonus to hit trolls] ((16)).

Damage Roll: 09:08, Today: Ymir son of Gunir rolled 5 using 1d6 ((5)).

Effect: Heat: The target loses one point of Strength and one point of Dexterity (or takes a -1 penalty to attacks and AC) for one round. The orb is also hot enough to melt 1 cubic yard of ice.

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

ROUND 1

(Okay, so far my initiatives are as follows:

Initiative 6 is Ymir
Initiative 7 is Oli, Nendiel, Dwór
Initiative 8 is my five TAWARTEREG
Initiative 10 is Bofri, Evia, and Thrir

So I need initiative from Kronin still?)


Ymir holds up his arm, revealing his gleaming bracelet.  With a word he unleashes a glimmering sphere of crimson at the closest Forest Troll.  The glowing orb explodes in the bizarre creatures face and it roars in anger, its face now blackened and smoking.  The Artificer had clearly done some damage!

Óli charges in to attack, brandishing his scimitar.  He slashes at the same Troll's branchlike arm, hacking off bits of bark as his blade bites deeply

Nendiel picks up a leaf from the forest litter and breathes upon it, whispering "Olā naur!" and the leaf lights on fire and grows to become a flaming blade in her hands.  Then she rushes towards her foes.

Dwór draws his trusty short sword and rushes into combat, but his initial swings seem to do little against the rough bark skin of the Tawartorog before him.

The First Troll with his scorched face is angered and seems to attack blindly.  He swings his two knurled fists at Oli, and manages to hit him with one.  The Rune-caster is knocked back ten feet and lands hard on the forest floor, dazed and gasping for breath!

Second Troll attacks Evia, who is already deep in the fray, but the Dwarven warrior easily evades its clumbsy attempts.

10:58, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 7,10 using 2d20.  Second Troll attacks.

Third Troll rips up a large stump and throws it at Thrir!  The Huge log manages to catch Thrir solidly in spite of his efforts to evade it.

11:04, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 9 using 2d6+6.  Third Troll damage.

11:03, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 18 using 1d20.  Third Troll attacks (+3 for Strength)

Thrir takes 9 hit points damage :(
.

Strength check please Thrir or you are knocked backwards and lose your action this round :)

Fourth Troll and Fifth Troll move to the west and east, trying to find a way through the trees to get at the Dwarves.


OOC: I need Evia, Bofri and Kronin's attack rolls please.
       A strength check from Thrir to keep his attack action this round.

Her side step is off and she slips as he first attack goes wide. Sensing her near fall the troll moves in and Evia brings the top of her hammer in a straight arc straight up into the beast chin with a resounding crack.


Evia daughter of Dwalin rolled 9 using 1d10+5.  Damage 2. Double damage = 13...

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Thrir stands his ground easily though the stump strikes him quiet hard. He growls at the Trolls.

"I would of thought you all died with the Dark Lord!" he exclaimed as he charged forth with his longsword to strike at the troll who had hit him with the stump.


OOC:

16:15, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 9 using 1d20.  Strength Check, STR 16.

Just from past post my attack:

17:27, Mon 15 Mar: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 17,10 using d20,d8+4 with rolls of 17,6.  to hit, damage.

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

ROUND 1 (Continued)

Evia
swings her mighty hammer twice at the slower Tawar-torog, missing with her first attempt, but making up for it on her second strike.  She does indeed soundly smite the Wood troll upon its chin, the loud crack and resounding bellow of the monster proof of the damage inflicted.

Bofri likewise steps forward without hesitation, coming to Óli's defense.  With a powerful swing of his two handed war mattock, the former Stoneguard crashes against the Wood troll's chest, bark shards flying everywhere.  The nearby trees shake at the force of the troll's enraged roar!

Thrir
grunts as the stump slams into him, but with a herculean effort the son of Thrur keeps his feet, and replies with amazing swiftness, closing the gap and brandishing Dawi Drengi and plunging it into the third troll's side.  Black ichor gushes around the wound as Thrir yanks his blade free and pulls back into a defensive stance.  There were few things more terrible than a wounded troll.

Kronin (NPCed) rushes to the aid of his companion Dwór, the elvish axe Cambeleg glowing brightly in his hands...

END OF ROUND 1

INITIATIVES AND ACTIONS FOR ROUND 2 please

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Perhaps it was the force of the stump still throwing him off a bit with the ache in his shoulder as he brought his shortsword back and stabbed again at the troll but his blade could not find another soft spot being blunted by the thickness of the troll's hides.

Thrir cursed as his blade failed to draw blood this time.


OOC:



21:25, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 5 using 1d10+2.  Inititiative.

ROUND 2

(Okay, so far my initiatives are as follows:

Initiative 5 is Thrir
Initiative 8 is Óli, Nendiel, Dwór
Initiative 11 is my five TAWARTEREG
Initiative 12 is Bofri (5+ Speed Factor 7 for War Mattock)
Initiative 14 is Evia

So I need initiative from Ymir and Kronin still?)

Thrir slashes furiously lunging for what he hoped was a weak spot in their bark armour, but his enchanted blade fails to bite this time.  Cursing he steps back and brings his short sword around for another stab

Óli gets to his feet, the gash in his forehead bleeding profusely.  Dazed as he still was by the Forest Troll's mighty blow, the rune-caster bellows: “Ai-rusê!” (upon the filth!) and charges at the troll who brought him down.

Nendiel with her Flame-blade ready, advances on Troll 1.  She brings the weapon above her head and straight down in a blazing arc!  The Tawartorog roars as the magical sword not only cuts him, but sets his arm on fire!

Dwór, heartened by Nendiel's success and seeing his ally Kronin approach, swings with all his strength at the thick leg of Troll 1 and manages to cut through its tough hide.  Black ichor pours from the wound, making Dwór smile grimly.  They weren't impervious to his blade after all!

TROLL 1 Now badly wounded, and blind with rage attacks the opponent he most fears: the Elf with the flaming blade!  He swings his huge club and she tries to dodge out of harm's way, even the lithe Nendiel isn't fast enough this time.  She is smashed violently to the ground, crying out in pain and her flaming blade is extinguished, turning into a withered leaf in her hand!

TROLL 2 Continues to pummel Evia, and one of its wooden fists manages to find the agile Dwarf scholar!

13:55, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 16,9 using 2d20.  Second Troll attacks.

13:57, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 11 using 1d8+6.  Tawartereg fist damage.

Evia takes 11 hit points damage :(


OOC: I need a Strength check from Evia to keep her feet please :/

TROLL 3 Swings both fists at Thrir, but the creature's blows are clumsy and Thrir evades the beasts attacks this time.  This of course, makes the creature even more enraged!

TROLL 4 & TROLL 5 are still circling around and will likely be in position the next round.

Bofri Continues to pound on TROLL 3 with Thrir hearing an audible crack as his mattock crashes into the Wood troll and bark flies!


Evia daughter of Dwalin, brings her maul around for a great blow, but this time her mighty hammer seems to bounce off the Troll's bark hide!

OOC: Okay, I from those who have taken an action in this round I need init and attacks/actions for ROUND 3.  Also please don't forget to update your current HIT POINT status in your bio please.  It helps us keep track so I don't have to backtrack to figure it out.

Kronin, I need an init and attack my friend, Ymir I need the same please.

Evia, I need a Strength check for your character to keep your feet after you were smashed by its natural attack.  Otherwise it will take one of your actions next round to stand up.

Her foot finally bit into the earth just as a mighty fist struck Evia broadside. She did not move, her foot stayed and she brings her hammer around to connect with the beasts hip. She again drags the head back in an arc and hits the same spot again with a louder crack.

"I will fell you demon tree." she spot at the beast as a mixture of blood, bile and spit left her mouth.

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Okay, so far the current battle looks as follows:

TROLL 1 is SCORCHED, WOUNDED and REALLY upset! He is facing down Kronin and Dwór and Nendiel (who is currently prone).

TROLL 2 is BADLY WOUNDED as Evia continues to pummel him into submission and is also really upset.  Ymir is facing Troll 2 as well.

TROLL 3 is taking a beating from Thrir and Bofri (who rolled a natural twenty and so received DOUBLE DAMAGE for a critical hit! WOOOOooo go Bofri!)  I shall apply your CRIT attack to last round since you DO get a second attack on your second round due to specialization.  Just roll me damage please :)
The Troll is thoroughly annoyed and looking for some revenge.  Óli is coming to help with this wicked Troll as quickly as he can.

TROLL 4 and 5 were circling around.  They'll join the fight THIS ROUND!

Also thank you Thrir for updating your status to reflect your current hit points.  Evia you still need to update your status for the 11 hit points you took in ROUND 2.

For now I'll need to NPC Kronin until he hopefully joins us again.

So now, let's continue:


ROUND 3

(Okay, so far my initiatives are as follows:

Initiative 6 is Óli, Nendiel, Dwór, Kronin
Initiative 9 is Thrir
Initiative 13 is my five TAWARTEREG
Initiative 12 is Bofri
Initiative 15 is Evia

Ymir I need an initiative and action please my friend).

Óli the Rune-caster charges at Tawartorog 3 with complete abandon, gripping his scimitar with both hands and swinging it wildly.  He actually manages to hit, the blade tearing off layers of bark and forcing a roar from the Wood Troll.

Nendiel quickly stands up, taking a defensive stance with her staff her mind works to come up with another dweomer to hurt these monsters!

Kronin (NPCed) hefts Cambeleg and swings the mighty axe twice, both times biting into the fearsome Troll.  The creatures knot like eyes blaze with a baleful green light, now centered on the son of Krolin!

Dwór thrusts with his short sword, but this time he cannot find a weak spot in the wooden hide of the creature.  He curses in Khuzdul and brings his sword smartly around for another try.

Thrir slashes twice with Dawi Drengi, carving deep into his Troll.  The monster gushes steaming black ichor from his wounds and bellows in pain and fury.  The enchanted blade glows and pulses in answer, as if it enjoys the carnage it has caused.

The first Troll swings its huge club at Kronin, smashing into him and nearly knocking the stolid Dwarf from his feet.  Kronin swiftly regains his composure, gritting his teeth from the pain, and battles on!

The second Troll
once again tries to hurt Evia again with his horny fists, and hits once, his fist crashing against her and threatening to knock her to the ground!

12:46, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 9 using 1d8+6.  Tawartereg fist damage.</Red>

12:44, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 10 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


<Red>12:43, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 19 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


Evia takes another 9 hit points of damage :(


The Third Troll
attacks Bofri for hurting him so much.  Swinging both knurled fists at the son of Brogur.  His first attack crashes into the former Stone-guard hard enough to topple him.  His second attack cracks into a nearby tree, cutting in in half and probably hurting the clumsy Troll!

12:48, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 8 using 1d8+6.  Tawartereg fist damage.

12:47, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 14 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


12:47, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 1 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


TAWARTEREG 4 & 5 charge through the trees, splitting ancient trees into splinters as they come roaring through.  One Wood Troll decides to assist the first Troll who has four opponents.  The second Wood Troll rushes to help the second Troll, who is staggering now.  Both get a single attack.  Perhaps due to their haste, both miss:

13:08, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 8 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

13:08, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 11 using 1d20.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


Bofri
lunges forward and smites the Wood Troll (if he isn't knocked down that is) though a bit rattled from the blow he suffered a moment he doesn't manage to hit the beast as hard as before.  Still it clearly does hurt it!

And then Evia takes her turn, hammering into the Troll with mighty swings of her maul.  She sees the creature go down to one knee, then the Dwarf maid is forced to quickly dodge the blow from a SECOND Troll who joins the fray!

OOC: So I need a Strength check from Evia and Bofri
     I need an attack from Ymir
     I need damage for the Critical Hit from Bofri.
     I need those who were hit to subtract the damage from their status please

And that will End ROUND 3.

As usual I'll need initiatives and actions for ROUND 4


Things are getting ugly now.

Thrir smiled a bit as the Troll began to stagger a bit, still it was impressive four of them on one. They needed to finish this one off though so that they could attack the others.

He moved swiftly looking for an opening and jabbing in with Dawi Drengi hoping to fell a troll with it.


OOC:

Keep attacking Troll, if this one falls attack the other one that moved in.

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Ymir, with surprising speed, raises one gauntlet clad hand towards TROLL 2 and a shimmering emerald bolt blazes from it.  The acid splashes against the Troll's bark, sizzling and leaving a scorch mark, but it does not seem to even be enough to gain the creature's attention, so far as Ymir can see.

Both Bofri and Evia steadfastly stand their ground, resisting the impressive blows from their Trollish opponents.

Bofri's mattock swings around and crashes against the monster, forcing a fierce bellow from the Wood Troll (extra attack damage applied :)

END OF ROUND 3


ROUND 4

(Okay, so my initiatives are as follows:

Initiative 2 is Ymir
Initiative 4 is Thrir
Initiative 7 is Óli, Nendiel, Dwór, Kronin
Initiative 9 is Bofri
Initiative 10 is my five TAWARTEREG
Initiative 14 is Evia


Ymir's action for THIS round.

Thrir swiftly lunges with his enchanted sword, biting deep into the Troll's horny hide.  A fountain of black blood spouts from the wounded leg, befouling the ground around the beast.  The canny dwarf notes the Troll (#3) stumbles as it shifts its weight.  Clearly they are wearing it down.

Dwór battles alongside Kronin, slashing with his short sword and savagely cutting across his Troll's right arm.

Kronin swings his magical axe with a single mighty blow and takes the left hand off of his Troll (#1)

Nendiel speaks in rapid Bethteur "Naur dan i Tergteur!" and in her fair hand she conjures a small globe of glowing green fire, which she hurls at the astonished Troll!  The creature's left arm erupts in green flames and it howls terribly and falls to one knee!

Óli shouts a Dwarvish curse and brings his scimitar to bear, but somehow misses the huge beast and embeds his blade in a nearby tree!

Bofri's action.

TAWARTOROG 1 The severely wounded creature refuses to die, this time bludgeoning Dwór with the remains of his knobby club.  The Dwarf flies backwards, hitting a stump hard, the falls to the ground and lies still.

TAWARTOROG 2 Again turns his attention to Evia, attempting to pummel her with his sledge like fists.  He smashes her once, determined to kill the Dwarf maid before he himself perishes at her hands.

14:28, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 5 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

14:28, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 16 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

14:30, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 13 using 1d8+6.  Tawartereg fist damage.


Evia takes 13 points of damage :(

TAWARTOROG 3 is panicking and attacks wildly.  Since he cannot decide who is the greater threat to him, he attacks Bofri with one fist and Thrir with the other, but misses them both.

14:42, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 9 using 1d20+4. Tawartereg attack Bofri: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

14:42, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 10 using 1d20+4. Tawartereg attack Thrir: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).


TAWARTOROG 4 tries to help his dying companion (Troll 1) and swings both fists at the Nendiel, whom he judges to be the greater threat after seeing her able to invoke fire!  He hits her with both fists (and rolls a natural twenty).  He picks her up and crushes her angrily in his fist, then drops her to the ground where she lays in a crumpled bleeding heap :(

14:55, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 24 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

14:55, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 18 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).



TAWARTOROG 5 looks down at Evia and Ymir, then decides to aim his blows at Ymir.  The Artificer deftly avoids the first blow, but is smote hard by the second one.

15:09, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 7 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

15:09, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 15 using 1d20+4.  Tawartereg attack: THACO 13 (-4 against dwarves).

15:12, Today: Secret Roll: Eru Illuvatar rolled 11 using 1d8+6.  Tawartereg fist damage.

Ymir takes 11 hit points damage :(


Evia hammers the wounded Wood Troll in the chest, splintering his trunk with a loud crack.  It topples backwards (fortunately for her and Ymir) and does not rise again, much to the other Troll's dismay.

OOC: Okay, as I said, things are getting ugly now.  Two of the trolls are severely wounded and one is down, but so are Dwór and Nendiel :(

To complete this round I need the following actions, please:

An action from Bofri and Ymir.
A STRENGTH check from Ymir.
A STRENGTH check from Evia.

If Bofri or Ymir's action kills or defeats a Troll before its attack, I'll make any needed adjustments to this summary.

Also I need initatives and actions for ROUND 5.  I'm pretty sure we are coming near to the end of this encounter.

Round 5

Thrir notes the limping Troll, he'll not let it get away. "Do not worry, I'll send you to the dark lord soon enough!" he called out to the troll.

He jabs Dawi Drengi in at the Troll trying to get a good hit on that leg again, the Troll rolls around in pain but unpredictable as a child throwing a tantrum which makes it hard to catch it with the blade.

OOC:

17:18, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 6 using 1d10+2.  Initiative.

17:20, Today: Thrir son of Thrur rolled 10,11,3,5 using

d20,d8+4,d20,d8+4 with rolls of 10,7,3,1.  Dawi Drengi's attack (oops forgot to change dice).

Maybe not this round....

1st Attack: hit AC 5 for 11 points of damage
2nd Attack: hit sadly AC 12 (hey maybe his limp gives him a penalty to AC?) for a measly 5 points.

Evia continues on, hammer swinging left and right as she targets the nearest troll to the one that they have just put down. He misses with her first blow but a quick reverse catches the troll as it tries to lunge forward.

Re: Eryn Lasgalen (Mirkwood)

Strength Check - 19:12, Today: Ymir son of Gunir rolled 1 using 1d20 ((1)).

Ymir seeing his enspelled gauntlet failed to do anything to the creature, reached into his pocket to use another focus but then the creature focused its attack on him. He avoided the first blow but the second hit true & the Artificer found himself off his feet and thrown back from the impact.

On his back, Hunginn landed on his chest & flapped his wings and let out a few short caws.

"Have ye ever heared of someone being hurt GOOD?!", he said wincing in pain.
