Duncan Tallheart Annoyed that the giant frog escaped his blade, Duncan pursued the blue devil in hopes of delivering strikes once more. Thankful that he isn't alone against the Slaad, he quips to the fey creature assisting him. "Thanks for the help, Smiley." Duncan manages to avoid and block several strikes from the Slaad, thanks to shield work and his magical cloak, to which is he is eternally grateful. He makes a riposte attack amongst the misses. He then falls into the old rythum of Smash and Thrash.

Duncan Tallheart Helping to finish off the first opponent, Duncan sees another foe enter the fray. The large blue frog-beast makes for a tempting target, as he is not too big to be dropped by Duncan's shield attack. "The bigger they are... or is that blue-er?" Duncan set his shield straight, and charged toward the frog. His enhanced muscles from the potion lending extra power into his shield smash, and double sword strikes.

Duncan Tallheart Realizing he will need all his strength to take on such foes, Duncan reaches into his pouch and pulls out a scratched vial he has been transporting around for quite a while. As the oily liquid hit his throat, he felt his muscles bulge to unheard of proportions. He felt as if he could arm wrestle a frost giant! "Have at you!" As he drew forth his rapier, and rushed forward to aid Theren, he manages to overswing the sword, being unaccustomed to his new muscles. However, on a second try Duncan manages to make a better swing.

Using Dice from the previous post, the 19 to hit will become a 22, hopefully hitting, and the damage will increase by 3 as well.

well that's gonna cramp my typical in the scrum style, but what can you do. PK, can I amend my action? I'd like to take a potion of frost giant strength first, then rush in and attack the demon messing with Theren. I may need to use Action Surge to manage this, but it and I would still miss with one hit, but I may manage to hit it if I have an additional +3 to strength and damage. if that seems to Meta, I get it. I'll just do it next turn.

Hey Cheezal, Thanks for being persistent with me. Sounds good PK. I'll do what I can to get another post up soon. I don't typically spend my day around computers, so I have to make an effort to get a post up. This newer system isn't as easy to use when it comes to mobile, at least it seems that way to me. Sorry for being the boat anchor all this time.

I would like to apologize for the massive delay. Yall can thank Cheezal for being persistent enough to get me back on. I will be continuing through the end of this adventure and then I will likely be signing off again more permanently. I appreciate everyone having me back, but I am being a boat anchor to this group. It's all me, and my own scheduling and time management. I'm sorry for being a drag throughout this module.

(OoC 1: Unable to get things to copy over and can't get into my MW on my computer ATM, so this will have to do) Duncan moves gingerly to try and encircle one of the apparitions. (Move 2 spaces west, one space diagonal south-west) He stabs forth with his rapier attempting to sever its link to this mortal coil. (OOC 2: sorry for the messy Dice roll. 😞)

Merry Christmas everyone! 🎅

Duncan Tallheart Noticing his friends were crowding the phantom that were seen, and being hampered by the marshy ground, Du can adopts a new strategy. Waddling a few feet away from the roiling inferno of elemental power, Duncan sets his stance and diligently scans the area to the east for any incoming attacker. He stands ready, poised to strike if the creature comes within range once more. His shield drooped low, seeming to leave him more open to attack, but always at the ready due to his mastery of its use. "Try me again."

       Duncan Tallheart Character Sheet Duncan bately managed to avoid getting wounded by the wind, only being saved by his Cloak that made him hard to pin down.   The invisible foes were a frightening thought, but if they couldn't hit him even unaware, perhaps they wouldn't be so bad... if only he knew where they were. "Show yourselves, ya cowards!" Seeing Bloodaxe go into a fury of strikes he takes the hint and moves southward a few feet, drawing his rapier and attacking at the difficult to see target there.   Abilities and FeatsFighting style: Duelist: When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other Weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to Damage Rolls with that weapon.

Duncan looks at the odd tree with fascination. "I don't understand why someone would just make a tree. I mean isn't it a lot easier to grow one? Why do we always end up in these strange situations? Can't we just be tasked to go defeat aome boss without some drawn out and confounding puzzle first?" With that he let his shield down after giving Erie a boost. "Don't worry Erie, ill catch ya if ya fall."
