This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Short answer is yes. :)

Ylarum shouts: "That's it, brothers!  Those with bows, form up line abreast!  Watch for my stone throw, I'll distract that fire-spitter, you feather yon nightmare!"

This round, Othos and Runch join their companions and stay clear of missile fire. They know are in the direct vicinity of the corridor's entrance.

Ulas takes another shot at the creature's eye and misses.

Ylarum grabs two stones, using one as a decoy for the corridor's candles. Indeed, as soon as the stone gets past the orange candle, it is blasted by the same blob of light you have seen before and deflected from its original trajectory. The second stone is aimed at the monster, and goes past the orange candle without trouble. It is hit by a wisp of green smoke and a ray of blue light as well, but these do not seem to deflect the missile. The boulder still misses its intended target, however.

Tarm's action is delayed while he tries to figure out how to shoot the crossbow.

Belak crawls under the candles' reach. By the end of the round, he reached the iron door and can stand up.

Klob fires his crossbow and misses.

Tudd picks up the statue of the hobbit monk, runs towards the creature and throws the statue at it just as a fleshling grows out of the puddle just vomitted a moment ago on the floor. The statue hits its intended target. Interestingly enough, while the statue itself does seem to damage the huge mass of protoplasm, these are the last flames which were still consuming the robes the statue was wearing which seem to trigger a reaction of total aversion on the creature's part. The chitin, gelatinous flesh, the tentacles and mouths... everything seems to want to get away from the flames in such a way that the creature seems soon to form a sort of ring around the statue as it reaches the floor with the loud, plain sound of stone hitting stone.

Just as Tudd tries to secure his position, a tentacle hits his shield very hard, while another just snaps way above his head (Both miss).

Smeads and Gareth are now at -3 and -1 HPs, respectively.

New (7th) round. What are your intents?

Tudd giggles disturbingly as he attempts to leap over his fallen comrade away from the large mass while swinging with his morningstar at the fleshling with all his might.

OOC: Round 7 Intentions... Belak will stand and move to attack the creature with his battle axe.  Klob reloads and fires again at the creature.

(As per PM, at the end of round 6). Tarm shoots, and his bolt completely misses its mark.

Smeads will hang there in the air. He will try to show his contempt for the creature.

Hey mate, you seem to have missed this thread for Smeads, Gareth and Rissthil. :)

taking in the situation "Dire is the need! I've oil, prepare some flaming bolts! Ylarum, hold yer throw till I clear th' candles. Charlathan guide and protect me!" I sling shield but keep sword in hand and move to crawl under the candles to aide the fallen.
I gird myself to confront the nightmare.
Form the group wisely, make sure you share goals and means.
Set norms of table etiquette early on.
Encourage attentive participation and speed of play so the game will stay vibrant!
Allow that the group, milieu and system will from an organic symbiosis.
Most importantly, have fun exploring the possibilities!
