With Hat of Disguise, my disguise ability is +24.  Bad roll (4) = 28.

Leslie, please post a response to Synxol.  We really need to move this forward.  I'm about to put the Order of the Yellow Rose right on your back ends.  Delaying just makes it more likely.

[Jbizzle]

Yeah I don't think that the crimson color of our blood will go well
with ANY of our outfits.... well maybe our 'guide' and the worg...

[rpgamer]

Angel cast fly on himself.

[Leslie]

Sorry I thought I had posted wanting to leave and didn't realize you were waiting on me.

hey Erek, i'm not sure if Briggs remembered to post this or not, but everybody that was in the clearing has been healed to full from the cure light wounds wand.  It cooked 29 charges, but hey,  we all up to full hp.  As far as I know the only people not include were Diedra, Angel and the worg, for obvious reasons.

[Russ]

oh, yeah
knowledge: geography check: 19

[rpgamer]

1. What does Angel know about shining yellow rose in the center of
breast plate symbols?

Knowledge(religion) +10 plus growing up in Calsham


2. How much time (rounds) does Angel think he has before armor boy
reaches him?

[Michael Briggs]

Angel knows that these fanatics HATE Hunter Wraith followers and will kill anyone to stop them.  He also knows they act more like Hunter Wraith followers than Shanadan followers. 

[Bob G.]

Mike,

Please let me know if/when Cal'Shir spots Yellow Rose flyboy...and when
he's in range for a sneak attack... ;)

The satisfaction of a spellthief 'stealing' a fly spell from an airborne
assailant would be welcome.

[Don Alley]

That's just plain unethical.  =)   I'm proud to know you.

[Michael Briggs]

Although it sounds like a good time, I don't think the fighter will be within 30 feet.

[Don Alley]

You never know. Angel could come up with some crazy notion to lure him down there. 

[rpgamer]

how many rounds before flyboy reaches Angel?

[Michael Briggs]

4

[rpgamer]

And rounds before the foot patrol reaches the ground below him?

sorry, should have asked that at the same time.

trying to plot, er plan the fun

[Michael Briggs]

Hard to say, but at a full run they might be there in 10 rounds.

[Bob G.]

How far out and up is Angel from Cal'Shir

[James Kolasinski]

Calling this round 1, Angel is descending at double speed (40' x2) and casting a spell. He is moving away from both Yellow Rose and his group to a place on the ground about 80' away from his group.

 

Depending on whether his group flees or how many stay with his horse, he will flee to his horse and catch up or try to finish this yellow rose knight off in ambush then fleeing before the others arrive.

 

 

[rpgamer]

The group should be able to guess that Angel would make it to the
ground next round if unimpeded.

[rpgamer]

Pseudo round 1:

free action: yell messages

move action: Angel descents 80'

standard action: cast expeditious retreat on self

[rpgamer]

I also await DM decision on Tempus shots, if he was able to see enough
to fire, would make a difference what Angel does next depending on the
approaching knight's reaction.

[Leslie]

Do we see any thing?

Sent from my iPhone

[Leslie Lock]

Yeah, I was under the impression only Angel saw anyone.

[Michael Briggs]

You are correct, that is until just now.  The man's a little noisy.

First round of combat-  Post actions

[rpgamer]

Love the crashing through the canopy scene!

[Bob G.]

Cal'Shir cast Expeditious Retreat on himself.

+30' per round for 1 minute per level.

Using stealth to close within 30' of flyboy anticipating his own noise
will make movement easier and faster.

Not sure if it will take one round or two to get there, advise me when
ready for my next move. :)

[Erek Paterson-Hatton]

How far away is the knight?

Sent from my iPhone

[rpgamer]

Angel landed 80' away from the group, then moved 60' toward them, so
is 20' away from the his main group.

The knight's actions after Angel's dispel attempt hasn't been posted
yet. He was crashing through the tree tops about 80' away from the
group at the start of this round.

[rpgamer]

Not sure how the mechanics would work, but Angel's intent is to stay
ahead and out of melee range of the knight, but still look over his
shoulder to keep watch of him. Bait for a nice ambush.

[Andrew Airmet]

Tempus will be your flanking buddy!

Makes me think of this:

Is it time for initiative rolls?

Mike, can Cal'Shir act in this round or does he have one more to wait?

[Andrew Airmet]

Can Tempus see the knight attacking Angel?

[Andrew Airmet]

Banana phone?

I think I must have made my will save against that getting stuck in my head.  I could send out something more potent to help clean up the effects of my last attack.  Hmm...dangerous though.

[Erek]

Mike - I only fired one arrow last rd, the second roll was a crit
confirm. Assuming since the crit confirm missed that both my arrows
missed this time (hence no dmg rolls)

[Jbizzle]

Well it was just a quick attack, I wanted to keep it in the Pg
section.

[Michael Briggs]

You can act this round with a ranged weapon or charge action.

[Michael New]

Did Smithy reach the attacking knight?

And a map is forthcoming?

[Loki Mischief]

Want me to repost Synxol's move action?   or was he able to get there with his last horse-powered move action?

[Michael Briggs]

I'm working on a map.  Angel is right next to the knight.

[Michael Briggs]

Synxol can be standing near the knight at the start of this round.

[Michael Briggs]

Smithy can reach the knight this round with a move action.

[Don Alley]

Quentin has a readied action for a flanking partner.  The first melee guy that gets to the knight will trigger Quentin charging and getting in some creamy sneak attack goodness.

[rpgamer]

Did the knight have a double move (like with haste) or enhanced speed
to keep adjacent to Angel, assuming a move action to stand after his
fall?

Was Angel able to discern any obvious magical equipment or items on
the knight?

[Andrew Airmet]

Does Tempus have a clear path to the knight (for a charge)?

[Michael New]

Hast doesn't give an extra move action, just a bigger move action. So
if the knight fell down and stood up, that is (normally) two move
actions for the round.

[Michael Briggs]

The falling was a free action that acted like an attack.  The knight's actions were to stand while recovering his sword very close by and to move towards Angel.

[rpgamer]

Angel has Expeditious Retreat, +30' to his move action, active, which
was cast on his way down.

If the knight is next to Angel now, then he also moved 60' toward the
group in a single move action.

Angel would wonder how he did that.

[Bob G.]

And if he could do it, can his comrades do it also?

[Bob G.]

Mike, I used evildm.net to send you two dice rolls for Cal'Shir's
attacks. The numbers are without adjustments for dex or weapons, just
the straight dice rolls. Would you prefer I include the adjustments in
the future?

[Michael Briggs]

On review, Angel is enhanced in speed, so he is standing 35 feet from the knight.  He is full on running towards Angel.  You know the way maniacs get.

[Loki]

Regarding your post that I attached below...

You're still expecting 4 posts per week from us?

On average I'm getting about 1-2 posts per week. Are you wanting more
fluff-type posts where I stand majestically and gaze into the

[Leslie Lock]

Shyam did get her healing wand back right?

[Russ]

yeah, kachok's good like that

[rpgamer]

Karchok has a similar wand himself, so like taking candy from a little
girl, bad half-breed, bad ... then giving it bad to her half spent,
tsk, tsk

[rpgamer]

Holding posting Angel's actions if a map is to be published soon.
Otherwise, let me know and I'll dream something up ... the priest
feels good to be wanted.

[rpgamer]

rewrite (feudian slip):

[Bob G.]

I've been working on the basis that, if there is another post calling
for my character to interact, or a move to respond to, then I post. If
it is a matter of posting fluff to meet a quota that to me just brings
down the quality of everything.

IMO.

FWIW.

[Bob G.]

I am going out-of-town this Thursday and probably won't be able to post
until around the 25th or so. I'll try to get access to email but I can't
make any guarantees. NPC Cal'Shir as needed. His intention is to take
down or disable flyboy before his buddies get there.

If the party is successful in offing this guy quickly enough, he'll ask
for someone to help throw the body on a horse and take off with it.
Failing that he'll certainly want to check the body for removable items
of worth such as rings, brooches, necklaces, armbands, pouches, etc.,
provided time allows. And if he does fall somebody better grab his
weapons... ;)

[Russ]

i didn't know Karchok was carry a wand of healing, I thought Shyam and Angel were carrying them.

[Russ]

damn it
*carrying them

[rpgamer]

Yes, Angel gave each (Karchok and Shyam) a wand of healing, CLW (50
charges), knowing both could activate them.

Alas, he obviously has more faith in you two than in return combined.
What's a humble cleric to do ...

Wouldn't want the group caught without healing magics when the priest
wasn't available. Of course he would frown at using them when other
means are easily requested.

He mentioned this to the group when loot and purchases were
distributed during this trip's preparation. This also went along with
him expressing concerrn to Karchok in private about the group's
capacity to heal while adventuring.

[Leslie Lock]

There was a post where you stated he took it from Shaym to finish the
healing, not sure why he took it when she was already doing so :-)

[Russ]

in that case he would have just used his, lol

[Michael Briggs]

I'm waiting on Quentin's post for the next big post.

[Don Alley]

I had a readied action to charge and sneak attack as soon as I had a flanking partner

[Don Alley]

Sent you my attack rolls (total to hit 25).   It should actually hit AC27 because I will have him flanked.

[Andrew Airmet]

How far away is the knight from Tempus?

[Michael Briggs]

Close enough to hug....a big sword pointy hug.

[rpgamer]

Ouch! sniff, Angel muffles his response to the deeply painful blow,
not wanting to cry out like a little girl. That's for the others to do.

[rpgamer]

Can you tell me how close everyone is to the yellow rose knight?

5' Angel
5' Tempus
5' Quentin
?' Smithy
?' Keryth
?' Synxol
?' Cal’shir
?' Karchok
?' Shyam
>60' Diedra & Worg

[Michael New]

Smithy is 10' away, meaning there's a 5' space between their squares.

That distance will close soon.  I'm just not sure when to go next.  Have we rolled initiative?  What happens next?

[Jbizzle]

huh I guess my first round attack didn't happen/ the right
conditions. I think I've within 40 ft of the knight....

I'll be unavailable most of the day whilst in a training class.

Quentin's next action will be to kill the Yellow Rose cretin in front of him.

D

[Bob G.]

I'm back!

[Michael Briggs]

 5'      Angel

 5'      Tempus

 5'      Quentin

 10'      Smithy

 50'      Keryth

 5'      Synxol

 25'      Cal’shir

 60'      Karchok

 60'      Shyam

Please have actions posted by the end of the day tomorrow.  I'll assume basic attacks for anyone who doesn't post.

[Michael New]

Did Smithy's attacks hit?

[Jbizzle]

So where is Rashear? I have posted and nothing? Just checking

[Bob G.]

Just in case there is any question, Cal'Shir ignores Karchok's comments
about leaving the body behind.

;)

He's not exactly going to be gentle with the body, treating it more like
a rolled up carpet than a person, but he won't be unusually brutal either.

[Michael Briggs]

We lost power today, so I can only post on my phone.  The power company expects the power to return tomorrow at 9:30 pm

[rpgamer]

Starting this Sunday, I will be out on travels through Sunday August
14, 2011. Please NPC Angel if needed. Internet connection will be
spotty or non-existent.

[rpgamer]

Anything from Angel's or Smithy's heal checks on the knights
condition, i.e. Will he bleed out?

[rpgamer]

that's knight's not knights

[Michael New]

A 20 on a heal check should have stopped the bleeding...

[rpgamer]

Angel's heal check is only for health assessment, not aid. He just
wants to know the knight's condition, how close to death, will he
bleed out (especially with the rough hurried ride away), et.al.?

[Michael Briggs]

The knight was bleeding out, but is now just remaining unconscious from the non-lethal damage from the horse ride.  

[Loki]

Sorry all, must take my leave from the game.

Was fun while it lasted.

[Bob G.]

That's it, no explanation?

That's unfortunate you have to leave.

[Michael New]

What does Smithy know about the government in Narshall, where we're going?  Are they trustworthy?  How are they on law and order?

[Leslie]

I thought the city is in chaos right now, no government since demons destroyed it.
