Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Donning:  Uh... skip that. 6 minutes?!  Bah, Kondor puts on his loincloth and draws his sword. If the others are charging in, he'll not hide behind - but he's aware of his 1hp.

Oh boy the loincloth got thrown in one of the canoes somewhere when you loaded everything.

No one is charging, so far the intentions for this round are:
Gundrabu will climb into a canoe.
Votin will try to get to his feet to attack beastmen.
Tillak can't find his war pick in the canoes and will try to help Cleric and Barbarian into canoes.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

ooc: Do we see Votin? I don't want to leave our newest player behind, but the group is desperate and Kondor is at literally 1hp.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

OOC: Once Votin gets on his feet he can move pretty fast, he saw you on top of the hill but may have gotten in over his head.

[Votin base rate is 50MV, but there are half a dozen battles going on between him and the canoes.]

Also, when Kondor threw everything in the canoes, he threw everything in the canoes.
So the only sword out is......

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Tillak will attempt to help get the canoe underway. I will not abandon the party though, of course, and will not set out until we are all accounted for.

Mighty though it may be, Kondor shall not use it upon these beastmen.  As the oracles of his homeland state, "don't go chasing waterfalls - please, stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to."

Did we see where the blast came from?

Because he doesn't see the new character, Kondor will get some useless things out of the canoe with the hole in it, and suggest that someone more experienced with canoes who is lighter than the barbarian take that one, so the hole doesn't go below the waterline. His ruined boots, the rations.

If that's not enough, they may need to stay and fight the survivors of the beast men battle!

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

The blast came from the melee behind Kondor.
Kondor frantically starts throwing out useless things [Kondor please list for me beyond the boot and the food]
And he's relieved that its the cleric who's boarded the damaged canoe. As he jumps inside the next. 
Satisfied that his compatriots are aboard, Tillak pushes out the third. And the three adventurers dig the oars into the swirling current.

30 yards up the embankment a caterwaul cuts through the din.
And an armored man climbs to his feet between two beastmen and raises a mighty battle axe!
[Votin roll d20]

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

ooc: hope it works out for Votin.

Kondor just gets rid of the wrecked boots and rations. Everything else is light enough or too important to throw out.

Votin swings again but the beastmen are far better trained than the self taught orphan. The regal beastman laughs at the young boy's inexperience and hefts what looks to be a long headless metal spear shaft above his head to strike. The savage beastman suddenly lunges forward and pushes the young barbarian aside. "No!" it grunts as it takes the full fury of the blow. Its cranium spilts wide on impact and blood and detritus and brain matter cover the boy!
