FEF: The Lost Lands [IC Thread]

[Zetaark]

 

"Looks like things are moving quite fast. Better not get completely left behind,"Yuel mutters as she tries to not lose pace completely with her companions.

Move to D23

[Ragnarok97071]

Nothing to do but worry, yet, noone actually injured, though Marl had apparently been stunned by Johan's... singing... and fallen to the ground. She frowns, helping him back up as she moves forward.

 

"Up you come, let's go help."

 

Anea Moves to D23 and Waits

[Unlurking Sentinel]

Marl was still in his bizarre pain-trance when he heard a familiar voice, and someone tried to lift him up from the ground. No sooner than did she start helping him up, when he spasmed forward and regained full consciousness. 

"Wh-w-what happened?! Anea, why are y-" is what he managed to spit out before realizing the mess he was in, and turning to everyone else who had paid attention to his "spectacle" (both his being stunned by the Skald's shout, and being treated like a child by Anea). 

"If any of the rest of you mention moment this outside of these rooms, I'll-" 

He probably would've continued with I'll tear your abdomens open and use your small intestines as spare bowstrings, and the large intestines as your noose, but he managed to take control of his temper, and returned the arrow to his quiver. 

[Twinwolf]

Enemy Phase:

 

Up the hall, the remaining guards rumble with the enemy.

 

Spoiler: Lots of combat happens. Soldiers are hit by axeman. Soldier A dodges a blast from the mage by the skin of his teeth. Soldier B is finished by Archer C. The knight tosses a javelin at the mercenary. The shaman blasts the guard.

 

Back down with the party, a couple of soldiers seem overly focused on the door.

 

Spoiler

Axeman A attacks the door! 10 damage!

 

Spoiler

Archer B attacks the door! 6 damage!

 

The cultist steps back into the pillars before tossing dark magic at Alwine. It singes her armor, and in retaliation she throws an axe into the cultist’s gut.

 

Spoiler

Cultist A:

AT: 15 - 6 Res - 1 Terrain - 3 Armored = 5 damage!

Hit: 96 - 7 - 15 - 10 = 64

AS: 3

 

Cultist A attacks! 9, hit! 47, no crit. 5 damage!

Alwine retaliates! 71, hit! 80, no crit. 13 damage!

 

An axeman interposes himself between the cultist and the angry knight, but doesn't strike for lack of ability to get through her armor.

 

The mage follows up on the strike, but fails to bring Alwine down.

 

Spoiler

Mage A:

AT: 11 - 6 RES - 1 Terrain - 3 Armored = 1 damage.

Hit: 103 - 7 Eva - 15 Terrain - 10 Charisma = 71

AS: 3

 

Mage A attacks! 33, hit! 24, no crit. 1 damage!

Alwine retaliates! 88, hit! 60, no crit. 15 damage!

 

An archer and a knight double team Bradwr, but they remain standing.

Spoiler

Archer A:

AT: 12 - 4 DEF = 8

Hit: 100 - 17 Eva - 10 Cha = 73

Crit: 3 - 3 = 0

Crit: 8 - 1 Dg = 7

Luna: 9% +5% PS = 14%

AS: 7 (double!)

 

Knight A attacks! 56, hit! No crit. 10 damage!

Bradwr counters! 53, hit! 53, no crit. 73, no luna. Tink!

Bradwr counters again! 37, hit. 70, no crit. 63, no luna. Tink!

 

Knight B holds, not being able to attack anyone except in futility.

 

ALLY PHASE:

In the guard post, the men shift as directed.

 

Up in the hall, the counterattack begins - the men know they are to die, but they’ll go down swinging. The marksmen release their arrows on the fighters - one getting a one-in-a-hundred shot on the throat of one of them. The swordsman manages to off the other one. The guard takes a stab at the archer.

Move to J21, Stab the Mage (it too tiny for me to see number UwU)

[Chevaleresse]

Alwine swung her hatchet in broad arcs and tossed one at an enemy mage as their magic washed over her, grinning like a maniac the entire time. 

"Is that the best you can do? Bring it on! I LIVE for this!" She shouted another wordless battlecry as one enemy soldier leapt backward out of the way of her attack, then hurled the weapon into a mage that dared to throw a fireball in her direction. She simply took the opportunity to pull her warhammer from her belt. She aimed a mighty overhand blow at one of her rival, lesser knights.

 

HAMMER DOWN Knight A (and also Guard whoever ends up adjacent to me)

[Swordstar]

K-20, stab a mage

[Raindrop Valkyrie]

Cassidy snickered to herself as she saw the knight that seemed out of place, battered and confused. She'd use this opportunity to sow her unique brand of chaos and further, look for any goodies she could get her hands on. She snuck up, an electric whisper on the wind, undetected, unseen. She rifled around in the Knight's armour seeing if there was any interesting goodies before she went for her signature trick. From behind she managed to unlatch the man's belt buckle and then with a quick tug, pull it entirely free of it's fastenings. Continuing her routine Cassidy put the motion from tearing away the belt backwards into a somersault to free herself of any retaliation that'd surely be coming. "Cassidy: 1 Belts: 0. And a little somefink fer my troubles~"

K25 to steal whatever's interesting then belts, then move to K26

[Powder Miner]

Linton moved towards the door as the sounds of combat grew very strong from beyond it -- peeking through a hole in the door, and then yanking his head back just in time to avoid the axe that splintered some of the wood.

"Well. Gentlemen, good news -- it looks like most of the Paxi forces are occupied by the party with the shouting Kahlan in it. We still have a couple of them to deal with, but we should be more than capable of that." He began lightly tapping his sword against the edge of the doorway, in precise time.

"Now, then... one, and two, and three, and four..."

R23, Leaf on the Wind

[RedMageCole]

Aidan looked a bit... flustered to see Cassidy suddenly snatch the Knight's belt, and it almost threw him off his already slightly panicked game after Johan's roar. Afterwards, he looked at the Knight.

 

"...Well, on the bright side, you won't have to worry about belts any longer, good sir. I'm afraid I'm on a bit of a tally, you see."

 

Aidan toasts Knight B.

[rokubiraijuu]

Elizabeth to J20, Heal Bradwr.

 

"Hey, I don't know what you're doing in this castle, but back off!"

 

J23, attack Axe B with Black Axe.

[ElfCollaborator]

"A strong breeze starts to blow! It carries us out to sea with hope of fame and pride! And glorious all will be that with sword in hand will die!"

I-23, perform Aidan and Bea

[Unlurking Sentinel]

Before Johan moves to I-23, Winston moves to K-22 and stabs Archer A

[RedMageCole]

"O-Off we go, then!"

 

Aidan to J24, toast Swordman A.

[Unlurking Sentinel]

This time, Marl had braced himself for Johan's singing, and mostly managed to maintain his composure this time. He took out his Training Bow then rushed as far into the fray as he could (J23), before setting up an Overwatch position. Though his ballista was likely a surer shot at killing someone, he did not wish to fall too behind the group, if he wanted any glory out of this.

"Listen well! Your days are numbered, and they're numbered less than one!"

The last remaining enemies make their last stand, pulling back from the door (besides the axeman) to try and do some damage before they go down.

 

The archer steps into Marl's range, and he takes a shot!

The axeman finishes the door, only to find a bunch of armed guards inside. "...I didn't think this through."

 

Up the hall, the clash continues!

 

Spoiler

Some stats and rolls I figure aren't actually that relevant to the players at this juncture, so I'll just say results.

 

Merc A dies, after countering Sword D. 

Soldier A is finished by the mage.

Guard A dies. 

Marksman B takes a hit, but lives due to dodges. 

Swordsman D gets healed to full.

 

The sneaks get a bit brave, what with the few surviving guards. 

 

Ally Phase

 

Up in the hall, the archers manage to take out one of the thieves - protecting the king's treasures seems the best they can do with the time they have left. 

 

Spoiler

More irrelevant math. Sneak B dies, after knifing Marksman B again.

 

"You bastards, you killed Ken!" 

 

Back at the guard post, Shin takes a step forward. "Not so tough without half a company at your back, huh!?" he shouted, before blasting fire at the axeman. A lot of fire. Someone needed to let off some steam.

Marl to M21, shoot cultist with training bow if they're not dead

"More combatants on our side?" As much as Sir Marl would prefer to handle this situation himself, the consequences of failure were too dire to refuse additional men.

"Welcome aboard. We'll save introductions for later, right now we need to protect the king!"
