Malfiac DEX 10

Malfiac's eyes widen as he witness arcane bolts of magical energy shooting forth across the chamber, hitting the robust dwarf with pinpoint accuracy! He is clearly at a disadvantage here, not being able to cross the narrow bridge due to his teammates blocking it.

He must find another way across, but how.... Looking around the chamber, he guestimates the space of the gap that the bridge extends over, and rules out jumping it.

Spot 5% [1d100] = 62

Climb 86% [1d100] = 35

Not seeing many options to go off of, Malfiac will do things the hard way and climb down to the ledge of the bridge and maneuver himself across using his arms.

If he must Throw his arms one by one to reach the next hanging point on the bridge, here is a check for that.

Throw 51% [1d100] = 44

With these maneuvers in place, Malfiac slowly starts to make his way across the gap, using the side of the bridge as a his pathway to the otherside. He prays that no one steps on this fingers as he maneuvers himself over, or that anyone notices and tries to stop him.

Varrick watches the scene as the two dwarves charge out onto the bridge to engage with the creature on fire, He has a moment of shock as a bolt of magic shoots through the air and lands directly into Rafo. Varrick audibly sighs, "Alway wit tha magic us'as eh? Guess a' ought ta 'elp out now." Varrick steps off to the side so that he has a clean shot of the creature, He then throws his second dagger at the creature, aiming for it's head.

Dagger Throw(25%): [1d100] = 13, Dagger Damage: [1d6+1] = 2+1 = 3

***Rafo, Cave and Bridge***

Jogging across the bridge, Rafo looks in front of his fellow dwarf and tries to notice what else is in the inferno. With the dwarf's war chant still echoing, within the cave, he strikes out at the nearest creature.
Rafo(9)
Spot(25), Roll to see [1d100] = 89
Parry (77), Roll to parry [1d100] = 24
Javenlin (77), Roll to hit [1d100] = 15
Damage [1d6+1] = 6+1 = 7

Ruke, I'm changing your Throw roll to a second climb attempt. Both of which succeed finding Malfiac climbing up the far side next round. Good use! Throw Skill is for use when throwing things that aren't weapons like rocks, sticks,tomatoes, bricks, chairs, pans, ect... just what a scrapper needs!
You guys got this sucker, just waiting on Thorgrim.

Seeing the magic bolts strike Rafo, Thorgrim lets loose a growl and charges at the woman.

OOC: Is Thorgrim able to reach the woman this turn? I can't really tell from the picture. If he can reach her he will charge and attack but if not he will just move up and off the bridge to allow others to pass and will attack with his crossbow instead.

Even more of the fires dissipate on the far side, leaving a smoke stinking of burnt hair and refuse in their wake.
Caltus begins forming the words and finger motions to a complex dweomer.
Varrick proves his worth with a well thrown dagger that lands squarely in the still thrashing giants chest.
Its own flames have nearly burned out as it still scrambles to get past the dwarves, probably looking for the water behind to cool its charred skin.
Angry Giants attack (even Rafo, odd Thorgrim)[1d100] = 87
It struggles to push Thorgrim out of the way but fails in the attempt as Rafo finishes the blackened beast with a javelin strike through its neck!
It falls in a wreck, causing the bridge to buckle and sway under its weight just as Malfiac struggles up the ropes near by to the dwarves surprise.I assume Mal left his torch on the other side.
Thorgrim spots the magic throwing witch down the slope and on some stairs about 40' away and decides to shoot at her instead of charging, scoring a hit in the hags left thigh.

Image

Caltus, still on the safe side of the bridge with Varrick, nearly finishs chanting an incantation but some of the smoke catches his lungs causing him to cough up the foul stench, disrupting his attempts. -3 MPs

Gotcha and I didn't know the mechanics of the MM spell - I'd say I tried to cast 2 missiles = 6 mp this time round.

Varrick slowly makes his way across the bridge, retrieving his daggers when he makes it to the giant, keeping one in hand and sheathing the other. He exits the bridge behind his three other companions, keeping as much distance as he can, and observes what is going on, waiting for a good opportunity.

I've made a new rule, if a spell is disrupted or the skill roll fails you only lose 1 MP per level. Also, my fault for not sending you the spell description. It's a non-standard spell therefore isn't in the list under character generation.

Malfiac DEX 10

After having climbed up from the ledge and situating himself next to the dwarves, Malfiac notices that the skirmish near the bridge was over, and all that was left was the ritual area. With Jagged Bone Dagger in hand, he will charge the area and attack the first target that he can see or that attacks him for that matter, ready to dodge if needed.

Dagger 72% attack roll [1d100] = 84

That was probably a miss, so I won't add a damage roll unless requested.

Dodge 88% dodge roll [1d100] = 88

yes, if Malfiac is charging the hag, a dodge roll might be needed. By the skin of your teeth. :)

OOC: Are we on to the next round yet?

Thorgrim will take another crossbow shot at the hag, providing he can get the shot off before anyone else engages her in melee. (Hopefully that will keep her off balance enough that she won't be able to cast another spell until the others get close enough to melee with her)

***Rafo, Bridge Battle***

Feeling the burning sting of his injuries, Rafo continues his charge into battle.
He will strike out at whatever is nearest and if nothing near he will follow Thorgrim toward the creature, on the steps, and attack her. I already rolled his attack roll and dodge a couple post up.

Medium Crossbows take a round to load, therefore have a fire rate of 1 every 2 rounds. If you want to change to a charge thats fine, otherwise...

Caltus(NPCd) ,still desiring to see his knew knowledge in action begins chanting in a low elvish tongue. Caltus Knowledge check [1d100] = 13-6 MPs
Thorgrim loads another deadly bolt into his bow as Rafo and Malfiac charge the witch.
Caltus(NPCd) ,still desiring to see his knew knowledge in action begins chanting in a low elvish tongue.
The Hag drops her staff and attempts to rake her claws against Malfiac who reaches her before Rafo. Hag Claw Attack [1d100] = 80
She scores a successful skill role but malfiacs also successful dodge negates it.
The witch is quick and angered. She screams over and over "You killed them! My children! You killed them! as she rakes towards the far too agile scrapper.
Caltus lets loose a volley of 2 magic missles which strike the burned head and chest of the hag.
Magic Missiles [1d4+1] = 2+1 = 3 [1d4+1] = 1+1 = 2

Image

Rafo and Malfiac have reached the Hag and can attack this round. Thorgrim finishes cocking his bow and has a clear shot between the two, if he wishes to fire.

Next round actions!

Rafos last attack roll helped bring down the burning creature on the bridge. Will need a new roll for this round.

Malfiac DEX 10

Dagger Strike 72% attack roll [1d100] = 66

Dodge 88% dodge roll [1d100] = 13

Malfiac steels his heart as the hag's screams echo through out the chamber and his mind. It was never his intention to needlessly take life, but they were a threat to his mission, and their dark magics must be stopped! Now that he is situated right next to the Hag, he will strike true with this Jagged Bone Dagger
(if there are any hidden bonuses on it, or consequences for that matter, please edit my damage post accordingly. You could say this is me experimenting with any potentially magical effects.)
Making sure to leave enough room for his companion's crossbow shot.

dagger damage with bonus [1d4] = 4+2+[1d4] = 2 Total of 8 damage so far.

***Rafo, Attacking Hag***

Jabbing straight out with his javelin, Rafo feels a gush of air as the hag easily dodges his attack. "Curse you vile creature!"
Rafo(9)
Parry(77)...Parry [1d100] = 70
Attack(77) Rolled...Attack [1d100] = 99

Caltus the mage

Caltus decides to press the attack with his previous spell.
magic missile Lev1 = 3mp - Spell-check (Know. Arcana, 68): [1d100] = 17 for [1d4] = 1 + 1

(that looks like 2 dmg)
