[D&D][IC] Valkyria: Scales of War

Recommended Posts

As you’ve been talking to the guards, you’ve been hearing shouts in the distance. But now those shouts are a lot closer, and a throng of townsfolk comes running around the street corner to the north.
They’re fleeing a curious sight: a full-grown ogre pulling a wagon by a yoke around its waist and upper body. The ogre holds a large cask in one hand and a massive club in the other. Riding atop the wagon are two goblins with short bows, shooting at the fleeing townsfolk.

Roll Initiative

 

To Richard

"Well we did have to go North but it looks like that isn't happening if we head East here we can turn back north at the next junction." replies the barman.

And again Richard nodded in response to the bartender's statement, and he slowly and purposefully led the group east in an attempt to try and draw the attention of any goblins or other monsters they might encounter away from the rest of the group, although he wouldn't be lying if he said that he was praying for the trip to be an uneventful one.

 

Richard didn't really say anything to the bartender or his family along the way, he was never very good at walking quietly, but he wasn't going to be the fool who wouldn't shut his yap when sneaking either.

Ragash sees the ogre and goblin and smiles a little. She then takes a few steps back as an orb of unhindered magic appeared in her hands which she flings at the goblin.

The Ogre throws the cask in his hand, it wobbles in the air as if it is unbalanced. However it still manages to land in the middle of the squad of guards, and the Cleric. A black viscous substance covers the ground what ignites covering the area in fire.  It then reaches into the wagon and pulls out another cask.

Spoiler

@Cool Girl make a dex saving throw to try avoid some of the damage (1d20 + dex mod) (1d20 + 2)


The Guards suffer severe burns and split up, two fire crossbow bolts at the ogre, while the other two charge forward with their weapons.
One bolt lands true, and the two strikes find their mark.
 

Spoiler

@DragonRage your turn

Maris doesn't really think punching a dude that big is going to work out very well.  Fortunately, he has alternatives!  He readies an action to dodge should attacks come his way, and attempts to convert the ogre to a higher calling, or at least give it a really, really nasty headache.  "Inspiration is a constant.  The dreamscape radiates transmissions from a higher power!"  He informs the ogre, and anyone else who might be listening.  "Only you can take a stand against materialism!  But how should you navigate this divine universe?  Although you may not realize it, you are mystical!  Have you found your quest?  The path to enlightenment is strewn with the castings-off of life!  Base, physical goods shall only hold you back from enlightenment!"

The Ogre gives you a confused look probably because your words had to many syllables more then anything.
Meanwhile the rest of the bar patrons move away from the fight following the barman's lead.
Before leaving the elf fires a shot but the fire puts him off and it misses the ogre by a good 5ft.
The Elderly Dwarf charges in but his sword glances of the contraption holding the Ogre to the cart.
 

Spoiler

@Cool Girl your turn (you take 2 fire damage for starting your turn in the fire)

There are injured, but we can't right now. There's no room or time to heal. Guess I'll have to go on the offensive here. Althea thinks to herself.

 

Althea agonizes a bit in pain as she took a bit of fire damage and gets out of the fire. She grabs a small bottle of ointment and puts it on her injury in hopes that it'll heal a bit. She thens decides to cast sacred flame on the ogre in hopes that the others can get an opening to attack.

 

"Hey, now's your chance!" Althea screams to the others

Richard did what anyone with two brain cells to rub together and an actual excuse would do when faced with an Ogre, and that is make a tactical retreat with the civilians he had promised to protect. He made damn sure to say "Keep up the good work!" to the town guards who were fighting against the damn thing while he, Sir Richard that is, bravely, bravely ran away.

As Richard is escorting the bar patrons, two goblins turn the corner coming to join in the sound of battle, seeing the group one fires his short bow at Richard what bounces off his armor, the second passes straight through a bar patron's lower abdomen leaving him bleeding out on the floor. The group also notice two goblins approaching approaching, one from the west and one from the south.

Near the battle with the Ogre two goblins turn the corner, and with a shot from a bow and a slash from a sword a guard fall to the floor.

@Megagun You're up.

I hastily throw a javelin towards the ogre, before moving back near the drow and telling her "think you can light up that cart behind the Ogre?"

 

Spoiler

Didn't even bother to roll damage....only rolled a total of an 8 on attack

"I can try. If I can't you probably want to see if you can find any of those flasks the runts where thrown earlier and try those as well." Ragash says as she moves to get a clearer view at the cart and flings a bolt of fire trying to see if she can ignite the stuff in side of it.

Ragash shakes her head "I can't get a good angle to hit the stuff unless I leave everyone to get up stairs." She says to the halfling as she flings a bolt of energy at goblin.

The ogre swings it's great club down at the nearest guard, but the cutting words of the bard cause it to hit the floor, with a loud 'thuwmp'.
The guards respond in kind firing a frenzied salvo of attacks at the ogre, however only one seems to hit an area that causes any real damage.
The fire starts to spread towards the grass.
The guard that was sent to escort the bar patrons sees the two goblins approaching, moves up, and gets ready to strike and goblin that comes into range of his short sword.

Spoiler

@DragonRage you are up

Maris runs over to the civilians being menaced by the goblins, and readies an action to strike the first enemy to go into his reach with his fists.  "Do not worry!  I shall protect you from these goblins with my fists of justice!"
