Act II: Penumbra

[Charon]

A 17 will not hit.
Viales takes a swing at the devil, who is looking much worse for wear after his previous shock, but he bats your sword aside with a grimace.

(Spellcraft. He just cast Haste)

Nirili is up.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

Viales calls out loudly: "By Paletius' grace, the mage has cast Haste! Be aware!"

[Grodech]

Full attack on C4.

Longsword attack:

[4]+6 = 10
1d20+6:  [

] +6 = 10

Damage:

[2]+4 = 6
1d8+4:  [

] +4 = 6

Rapier attack:

[19]+5 = 24
1d20+5:  [

] +5 = 24

Damage:

[4]+1 = 5
1d6+1:  [

] +1 = 5

[Grodech]

Rapier chance for crit:

[9]+5 = 14
1d20+5:  [

] +5 = 14

10 total piercing damage if crit chance hits.

[Charon]

I'm afraid a 14 will not crit.

C6 will move to L10 to flank Zandorian and attack.
31 to hit.
8 slashing damage.

C5 attacks G2.
16 will not hit.

Nirili tries to land her blows against the cultist she faces but he is surprisingly swift to dodge out of the way. What could have been a severe blow is instead just a laceration along his arm.
The hasted cultist forgoes his full attack to reposition to flank Zandorian and the drow is oblivious as the cultist's blade scores his back.
C5 trades blows with the guard captain, but the seasoned warrior parries the paltry efforts.

Timidity is up.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

How are GC, G1 and G2 looking? Ragged and at death's door, or healthy?

[Charon]

They are unscathed.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

She'll move to V15 and attempt a Dispel Magic on C7 to try and remove one of the active spells.

Caster lvl check:

OOC: I am this close to dropping a nuclear F bomb

[Charon]

G1 will attack C1.
He hits for 10 damage, felling the cultist.
The devil noticeably flinches at this, his form seems to flicker slightly.

G2 will attack C5. Both attacks hit, felling C5.
The devil cries out in pain.

C4 will attack Nirili.
19 to hit.
8 damage.
I think that's a miss.

That brings us back around to Zandorian.

[Grodech]

That is indeed a miss.

Zandorian is not in good shape. He's feeling the wounds, and now knows he's being flanked. Without being able to see, he knows he really can't move anywhere. He swipes out again at the wizard, hoping to hit.

Attack:

[10]+8 = 18
1d20+8:  [

] +8 = 18

Miss chance (low=miss, if given a choice):

[20] = 20
1d100:  [

20

] = 20

Damage, if he hits:

[3]+3 = 6
1d6+3:  [

] +3 = 6

Will save to negate blindness:

[1] = 1
1d20:  [

] = 1

Spoiler

AC: 15 (normally 21)
CMB: 5
CMD: 9
HP: 8/41
Panache Points: 4/5
Effects in effect: blindness = -2 to AC, No dex bonus to AC, -4 to all dex or str based skill checks

[Charon]

(Yeah I always take chance as low because people can't math. 20% miss chance running from 1-20 is more easily readable than 20% miss chance running from 81-100).

It's a miss for Zandorian unfortunately, well within the 50% and a one for the saving throw. A disastrous round for the drow.

The Guard Captain will move to W10 and take a swing at the devil.
Nat 1.

The mage (c7) will unleash another fireball. This is gonna hit everyone except Nirili and Zandorian.

Reflex saves all round.
GC = 17
G1 = 17
G2 = 25

All three pass (DC17) and take half damage. A mere 7 damage.
The devil is, of course, immune.
15 damage to anyone who fails their save.

I'll wait for Viales' and Timidity's saves before deciding what the devil does, but he's up next.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

Here we go...

Save 1 - Timidity:

[2]+1 = 3
1d20+1:  [

] +1 = 3

Save 2 - Viales (no damage if passed due to Improved Evasion:

[8]+5 = 13
1d20+5:  [

] +5 = 13

OOC: Oh fuck me sideways and call me an ambulance...or rather, Timidity...holy hell are my dice rolls bloody cursed with her...


Stats:
Timidity: 9/33
Viales: 8/30

[Charon]

The devil is gonna take his customary attacks against Viales:
13 to hit
and
17 to hit

I swear he's beefed almost every attack roll.

Viales is up.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

OOC: Am I right in saying this is the 6th round of combat (barring the initial surprise round with my Stonecall)?

[Charon]

This is currently the seventh round of combat proper, not including the initial surprise round.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

Viales, despite being singed, hot and his mental faculties melted, will electrify the devil with his loaded shocking grasp.

Atac:

[18]+8 = 26
1d20+8:  [

] +8 = 26

Dablage:

[1]+2 = 3
1d6+2:  [

] +2 = 3

Grsp:

[1, 5, 2, 5, 4] = 17
5d6:  [

] = 17

Cnfirmon:

[13]+8 = 21
1d20+8:  [

] +8 = 21

Ad Dablage:

[5]+2 = 7
1d6+2:  [

] +2 = 7

Ad Grsp:

[4, 4, 3, 3, 5] = 19
5d6:  [

] = 19

Spoiler

HP: 8/30
AC: 25 (base 21, +4 from Shield, +1 Dodge).
Buffs: Shield; +1 Keen on Rapier. (2 more rounds for both)
Arcane Points: 5/8

[Charon]

Did you have a stronk while typing that?

Anyway, yes that cnfirmons and is enough to finally drop the devil. As the lightning courses through his body he shimmers, struggling to remain corporeal and with a roar finally loses his grasp on this realm and returns to Hell.

Nirili is up.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

No, I got fireballed >.>

[Grodech]

Nirili will continue her attack on C4.

Longsword attack:

[8]+6 = 14
1d20+6:  [

] +6 = 14

Damage:

[2]+4 = 6
1d8+4:  [

] +4 = 6

Rapier attack:

[8]+5 = 13
1d20+5:  [

Damage:

[5]+1 = 6
1d6+1:  [

HP 23/49
AC: 20
CMD: 21/CMB: +6
Effects in Effect: none

[Charon]

I'm afraid neither of those attacks land. In the flickering firelight of the devil disappearing, shadows dance and twist around the pair of you, making it hard to judge distances.

C6, still flanking Zandorian will follow up with two attacks.
22 to hit for 11 slashing damage and
16 to hit for 10 slashing damage.

Timidity is up.

[Grodech]

First hit will take Zandorian down. He only had 8 HP left. If the cultist actually takes the 2nd attack on the prone body, it will kill Zandorian outright.

[Charon]

I'm afraid to say that in his hasted state, the cultist will take that attack, running the fallen drow through with his sword.

[Cmdr Maxwell]

She'll move back to W13 and channel another healing energy burst around her, particularly given the fireball did some damage.

Heal:

[1, 6, 4] = 11
3d6:  [

] = 11

HP Stats:
Timidity: 20/33
Viales: 19/30

[Charon]

Confirming, Nirili will also heal that 11 hp.

G1 will relocate and attack C4 for 12 damage.

G2 presses on, relocating to S8.

C4 will engage Nirili.
23 to hit.
9 slashing damage.

GC will relocate to Q10.

C7 will cast another spell on himself. It's fly, given that he starts flying.
He relocates to P7 but 30ft up in the air.

Viales is up.
