Quote from: Coffee;267277Zarko takes a coffee and pops the lid off of the to-go cup. He sips it idly as he walks over and studies the elves.

He smirks, as if these guys won't be too tough to beat at all.

Then he throws the coffee in the face of [the Head Masher] upon whom he then launches a Sneak Attack.

Initiative (+4): 14
Sneak Attack (62): 08 (!)
Damage (+0): 1
Saving Throw (37): 95

Zarko's got a cunning plan, but Head Masher knows a thing or two about dirty tricks.  He blocks the coffee cup with one hand, shrieking as the scalding coffee burns his arm, and brushes aside the ape's sucker punch.  The elf clinches with Zarko, and grinds his knuckles brutally against the ape's temple.  He's able to squirm loose of the elf wrestler, but he can barely see straight.

[10 HP damage.  When you get a noogie from The Head Masher, you feel it.

[As before, when you Sneak Attack a wary opponent they get a chance to Guard, and H.M. made his roll.  But I gave you a Happenstance chances that the coffee was hot enough to be a missile weapon, so you still ended up hurting him.]

Quote from: Rondo;267198Buck is gonna attempt to grab and lift one of the PhD. elves over his head in order to chuck him at the giant when the giant is on top of us.

Attack: 46%

Quote from: Rondo;267358Buck picks the Elf up like a ragdoll, I think...i rolled an 8% for the first Great Feat!  As I walk to chuck him, I roll a 71 % for the second Great Feat, which I'm hoping means he gets chucked elbows over ass, but I think I missed the "giant".

Buck isn't quite as quick as Zarko.  Before he can grab his man the elves set up for some fancy maneuvers of their own.  Doctor Dropkick drops to all fours, and Professor Pain vaults onto his back.  Leaping off in a move known to students of Elf Championship Wrasslin' as the Deconstructor, he plunges toward Buck in a pre-emergent paradox of postmodern punching power.  Lucky for Buck, the professor's calculations are off and he sails right overhead, belly-flopping in the dust.

Buck grabs the fallen elf and tries to hoist him over his back in a fireman's carry.  At first the elf rolls free, but Buck gets hold of him again and heaves him onto his shoulders.  The elf thrashes wildly as Buck staggers toward the giant, peppering Buck with rabbit punches.  Buck struggles and hurls the elf -- he's well short of the giant, but he slams down the elf with a satisfying thud.  

[Take 5 HP from punches -- you can make a Saving Throw as normal.  Roll your attack damage for tossing the elf on his head d3 and, what the heck, add +2 for missile damage (NOTE: your character sheet is incorrect.  Buck's  missile damage is +2 -- +1 from DEX, +1 Pioneer bonus.  Could you edit your posted sheet?)].

Quote from: wulfgar;267322Oh, they seem hostile.

Attack: 34% HIt
damage: 10
Save: 21% make

Creature throat punches the giant.

Each of the giant's heads roars as it approaches, "Fee Fi..." "...Fo Fine..." "...I smell...I smell..." "It's 'the blood of a frankenstein,' you numbskell."  "BLOOD!!  I smell BLOOD!!"

'Stein and Giant charge each other and the two heavyweights trade mighty blows.  Flexing his Adam's apple in a fearsome display of manliness, Creature punches the giant in the stomach with his own throat.  The giant grunts, his pot belly rippling with the blow, and counters with fists and feet.  Creature catches a fist on his shield, and spins away from a kick.  The giant swings down a second fist...

[Need an extra Saving Throw from you here, and then you can fill in what happens to Creature based on whether he takes full, half or no damage (saving against 2 hp damage, so it's not a crushing blow).  

[Mini-Magog attacks 3/round, so go ahead and give me 3 Saves when you fight him.

[Did you ever roll for HP healed overnight, Wulf?  You get back d4.  And take 2 HP from the Giant's fist gonging off your shield, plus whatever his second punch deals.

[Will this make sense at all?  One wonders.]

(Geez, sorry 'bout the sheet JM...I gotta go back and check that, but as you were: +2 it is...)
Save: 11% (made it.)
Damage on the elf: 3

Am I within range of the giant since he's ontop of Creech?  Just curious.

Quote from: Rondo;267609Am I within range of the giant since he's ontop of Creech?  Just curious.

[Sure, but the elf wrestler you tossed is between you and Mini-Magog.]

[I rolled initiative for Buck & Creech for that last round.  Could you each roll when you take your actions for this next round?  (Zarko's roll of 14 stays as it is)]

Sorry: what's our initiative die again?  I apologize, JM, my brain has been hurting BAD from work...hadn't had a lot of time to focus on the fun stuff lately....

...d8?

[d10 + missile damage bonus]

Healed 3 Hit points.

Missed my saving throw with a 63%.  

Creature takes a blow to the head that sprains one of his cranial feelers and makes him bite his own tounge.  

"OW"

3 total on initiative on this end....

[I'll be able to update at lunch, so if you dudes get a chance let me know your next move, attack rolls, damage, etc.

[General Note: I've been letting you guys take center stage, with your posse mostly standing around, but in case it's not clear you can think of them as henchmen.  Feel free to interact with 'em and give orders, etc.]

"Don't just stand there!" Zarko roars, backing away from the elf and pointing at him. "This is the audience participation part of the show, guys! Get him!"

(Zarko is badly hurt, but not out yet. I'm hoping my boys will take care of the creep. I'm going on full defensive this round, though.)

Save (37%): 48

Or, y'know, not.

I'll try to grab the nearest elf by the collar and nail him in the face as hard as I can.

Attack: 5% (ouch for him!)
Damage: 3 rolled
Save: 18% (made it again! I can't believe it)

I'll have a feel around to see if I can find Quazarn.

To allay suspicion from onlookers, I'll make it look like I'm doing interpretative dance.

Quote from: ttagxamm;267514The warlock disappears!  Erm, completely.  Not only is he invisible, but completely silent, odorless and possibly incorporeal as well: Hobson touches nothing when he reaches a hand into the space where Quazarn stood an instant ago.

With a shrug, the hobling sets off, trusting the moody warlock to keep up with him.

[I made the Invisibility roll myself rather than make you wait, Fable.  You out there Doc?

[Now, where exactly are you headed?]

Quote from: Age of Fable;267867I'll have a feel around to see if I can find Quazarn.

To allay suspicion from onlookers, I'll make it look like I'm doing interpretative dance.

You draw a few curious stares.  It isn't every day one sees a cop suddenly start dancing.  Still no sign of the warlock though.
