Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Gundrabu chases after  Kondor and his cousin.

[End of round 1.  State intentions, etc...]

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

While the dragon is frying up some beastmen, Kondor takes off with Tillak, veering left and around the opposite hillside. The barbarian is thankful for his mighty thews, and his apex-of-human-potential physical strength, helping him not only move faster than most humans but also drag Tillak along for the ride!

initiative d6: 5!

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Gundrabu, now fully geared, runs away from the lightning-breathing monster and into/over the tree-lined north ridge.

D6- 6!

Gundrabu is on the south side of the stream, running west (away from lizard) along the beach. The lizard is on the east end of the north beach, lightninging the beastmen running up the north ridge followed by the new barbarian.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

By the Kraken this is confusing! I was working from the map, but everyone has moved around on it now.

Okay, Gundrabu will redirect his run south, away from the beach and the river. His aim is to disappear into cover and maybe someday get some rest and a meal and memorize some spells.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Haha! Everyone’s running around willy nilly!

Gundrabu heads east, seeking cover.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

😂

Well, okay, I run to trees/ridge, whatever is away from the monster and beastmen, seeking some sort of cover, a tree bole to put my back to.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Gotcha, bit of a steep incline up the south ridge, but probably manageable. Trees are at the top. Good luck!

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

As soon as possible, since the lizard is heading after the beast men, Kondor will zip up the hillside with Tillak - a 90* angle away from the lizard's path.

I already have a Kondor intention for this round - to run west to the end of the south ridge incline treeline. Are you changing path midstream for phase 2?

Nah, Powering through with barbarian speed and strength. The dragon's got people closer, and Kondor could zip around the edge of the hill to get cover by next round.

LOL! Let me compute the distance and Kondor's armored MV with a limp companion slung over his shoulder!

Just ONE companion?! Pfft, only with his low hit point total. Otherwise, he's one of the strongest humans in Hyperborea.*

*by 3d6 rolling, an 18 is the top 0.46% of humans. Less than 1% of the population sample. And he's above 3rd level. That amount includes all the smarter people out there, too, but he's in that sample.

I think we all can agree that Kondor is an Astonishing Swordsman!

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

 1d6: 2!

Tillak, having been a stupor, follows his cousin and his barbarian friend. 



  • “Moonglum licked his long lips. 'So it’s sorcery again. In truth, Elric, this whole country is beginning to stink of wizardry and the minions of hell.' Elric murmured for his friend’s ears: 'No hell-beings these—but honest elementals, equally powerful in many ways.'"

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Tillak regains his senses and finds himself slung over Kondor's shoulder!
