DM posting for the player a fourth time.

The monk, smiling serenely withdraws towards the casters, keeping himself between the remaining draugr nearby. "Worst things can happen at sea.. or so my friends tell me.", he remarks, uttering a well known aphorism, a certain wry humor on display.. since he clearly does not share the opinion of whoever his friends might be.

Despite this, there is a look of sadness in his eyes at the slaughtered civilians littering the beach.

Northern Company

Party Turn

Torren, after an early period of success, swings his blade fit to chop an ox in half. However, he misses his crab once more.

Heva moves towards where the main combat is further south.

Theo looses another pair of glittery homing daggers of brilliant energy down the beach, striking the crab there, which again loses track of what it's doing.

Drew misses with his shield.

Drew's warhorse hits home with both hooves on a crab, ending its scuttling pincering life.

One of the civilians, this one close to Heva, gets up off the sand and runs towards the dunes, looking terrified. The civilian on the ground, next to the warhorse, opens her eyes, but is too terrified to do anything except freeze, which is good for them.

______________________

Enemy Turn

Crab 2, continuing its mutually ineffectual dance with Torren, doesn't even get close to the valiant fighter with either claw.

Crab 4, having avoided Drew's shield, reaches in and grabs a limb, grappling him with one claw, and squeezing. The second claw likewise lands, though thankfully it doesn't manage to maintain hold. Even so, Drew finds himself in real trouble, even more so if he gets pinned.

Crab 6, unaware the easy target is awake, concentrates on Drew's warhorse. A claw hits home but the warhorse is too big to hold onto.

Crab 7 unable to figure out with its pea sized brain why its in more and more pain, retreats into the sea.

Ed side steps and ducks the Draugr's axe and gets a hand on his sword. He attempts a wild spinning back swing at its neck but comes up short, finding himself face to face with the dead-eyed creature and with its horrendous breath just as it comes forward with another attack.

OOC: The absolute worst rolls to start this game :(

Didn't want to leave my sword by withdrawing. Probably die now. He should end the level holding both Sword and bow in hand.

Southern Company

Party Turn

Billings reaches for the sword he'd cleverly tossed point first into the sand, when dropping it would have drastically reduced his life expectancy. He swings his blade at the Draugr, but the angle is off and the Draugr simply sidesteps out of its path.

Raziel channels before he moves, one of the Draugr in the pit collapses in a heap of blistered flesh and shattered bones. The other three Draugr appear close to suffering the same fate, moaning in clear distress.

Edwin gets out of the way, looking the worst for wear, but clearly the worst is over.

Trayvan backs off with the priest, moving to a position where Raziel's bodyguard would be expected to stand.

______________________

Enemy turn

Draugr 1 swings at Billings with his two handed axe and misses by a country mile.

Draugr 3 picks up his heels and runs towards the isolated Billings.

Draugr 7 joins Draugr 3 in racing towards Billings.

Draugr 6 attempts to climb out of the pit and manages to do so, only to fall back into the pit to its utter destruction.

Just in the last few seconds, Ed has developed a real deep disliking for the foul creature that keeps trying to cut his head off. It's ugly and it smells terrible and it scared off his dog.

But with several more like it turning and running straight for him, he decides not to press his luck.

"Keep goin, Bugle! I'm right behind ya!" Ed yells, turning and following in his dogs tracks at a run.

OOC

Depending on Draugr behavior, Ed will likely choose to pick them off from a distance unless they remain hot on his trail. He's withdrawing, but perhaps not leaving combat.

Even though many of the Draugr are down and out, nonetheless the survivors seem to be drawn to a swordsman and his dog further up the beach instead of being drawn to the channeler. Perhaps these undead are far cleverer than I had first imagined, Father de' Fatale thinks to himself as he mentally prays for the fallen.

Changing tactics once again, the holy man says, "Let's keep whatever survivors who are alive safe. I'm going to try and help the warrior and his dog," Raz quickly reveals. Noticing that Edwin is bleeding from several wounds, the cleric adds, "I'll heal you soon, but since you're hurt could you please establish an overwatch on the beach, so we don't get surprised while we quickly mop up the battlefield?"

Assuming there are no objections, the armed Priest of Erastil jumps back into the skirmish as he quickly moves forward toward the remaining foes who are attacking one of the armed shipwreck survivors and channels a wave of invisible positive energy once he is in range, the effects of which divine power of the gods are very visible for present to see, hear and smell as their rotted flesh cooks down to the now blacken bone.

Once again having placed his battered body within easy reach of the foul Draugr in an effort to save the souls of the living, assuming any enemies are still standing, then Father Raziel once again mentally concentrates on innate abilities associated with Erastil's natural link to animals as he covers his body with a covering of thin Chitin which toughens his body and boosts the health of his soul in anticipation of the worst, as well as things getting even worse!

lvl 2: create pitx2 (fog cloud)

The wizard deal with mixed feelings, on one hand the aasimar is proving helpful and passably competent, thought his priorities dont really match Edwin's ones, however that can be expected from a cleric, the church turn them into fanatics, not thinkers.... still being bossed around by someone with such limited intellect annoy the wizard, could as well listen to the zombie.

explanation

Edwin has nothing against Raziel, would behave the same with almost everyone(except theodmer)

He has Int 20, which make him inhumanly smart (Videlis has int 18, a lich has int 22) and has a different perspective

it's like being a top a tall building, you cant tell the difference between a 190cm tall man and another 160cm tall

In the same way, he doesnt see that much of a difference between int 8 and int 10 (or 12).

if strength 20 is 4 times as strong as strength 10, it's reasonable to say int 20 is 4 times as smart as int 10

Edwin sigh, realizing that the best course of actions is to go with the flow, as demeaning as it may be he will stay on overwatch duty, he move closer to the cleric "understood" he ready to strike the first foe who move toward Raziel

Billings after swinging once backs off from the draugr and races onto the grassy dunes.

The monk drops into stance and delays..

Edwin, who'd delayed casting, now casts a spell and a pit opens up under the charging Draugr who disappears from sight entirely.

The monk swivels in place, hooks a foot behind the oncoming Draugr's leg. Down goes the Draugr face planted into the sand, right in front of him.

___________________________

Draugr 3, face planted in the sand, moves to rise. The monk catches it once with a kick that breaks ribs while the punch that follows breaks its jaw. The thing collapses into the sand.

Combat over.

Drew, grappled by a crab who hasn't let go, attempts to escape from the grapple, since it's the only thing he can do when grappled, and is successful.

Drew's wonder horse steps forward and cracks more crab shell.

Torren slices his elusive crab opponent so hard it looks like someone took a crab mallet to it.

Heva's long string of misfortune in combat continues, her arrow missing its target once more.

Theo moves towards the remaining enemies and hurls a ball of acid at the crab holding onto Drew, which hits by the narrowest of margins, a glancing strike. Still the ball flows over a claw to his and smoke.

Crab 4 attempts to grab Drew again and fails.. by the narrowest of margins, claws slipping off plate steel at the last second.

Crab 6 battling the warhorse, fails in every respect to damage the war trained mount.

Blinking slightly as the man cleaved the crab in twain with a roar of anger, Theo mentally shifted the man from a clear 'knight apparent' to someone with 'possible berserker tendencies'.
