Approaching(dm sam) Tuesday December 17th, 2002 5:25:39 AM
Brahmah isnt quite able to make it to the tree line(its 100' away) and though he still hears the wailing, he's not able to tell what it is or where the arrows came from. back with the main group, Flat-Top is the only one able to hear the sound of feet crushing leaves and branches. lots of feet. the minotaurs dont seem to be doing anything except preparing for an onslaught, and there is no sign of Kale or Brahmah.
Kale Tuesday December 17th, 2002 5:27:41 AM
Kale continues to move towards the minotaur group and wonders if spliting up was such a good idea(now 60 ft away from group)
Flat-top d20+3=6 Tuesday December 17th, 2002 8:20:35 AM
"Kanisha, Ceira, I hear something! It's crushing leaves and snapping twigs, but it's not hooves and it's not paws? I wonder who it is that shooting arrows at us?" wonders Flat-top as he tries to locate where the sounds is comeing from.
Brahmah (Flying and Invisible) d20=12 Tuesday December 17th, 2002 10:25:19 AM
The flying minoTaur flutters another 40' into the trees and then continues into the canopy another 50'. He makes no attempt to be silent flying into the trees. Twigs and leaves fall to the ground. Then he turns and makes a final pass out of the trees, 90' back toward the Chosen, trying to see what he may (spot of 12).
Kenisha (AC=22) d20+2=4 Tuesday December 17th, 2002 11:41:05 PM
Kenisha keeps trying to hear what everyone is going on about, but she just can't catch it. So she does the best she can do to prepare.
((Readied action- if something does charge out of the woods she will fire Magic Missiles at it.))
Leets Wednesday December 18th, 2002 4:14:22 AM
Receiving no order, Leets wonders what to do...With Managarm growling by his side, he follows Flat-Top, shield and longsword ready...
"I think I heard something this way Flat-Top..."
Discovery(dm sam) d8=1 Wednesday December 18th, 2002 9:22:45 AM
Brahman gets to the treeline and plunges right in(you have a movement of 90 so you cant go as far as you like) with no regard to the branches(make dex check of 20 or suffer 1 pt of damage for the treelimbs ripping at you). he only flies in for about feet and he discovers the source of the moaning : zombies. centaur zombies. lots and lots of them. though he sees the zombies, Brahman does not see the source of the arrows that shot out earlier
back with the group, the ominous moaning gets louder and louder, and the minotaurs on the left move about 20 ft closer to the forest
Kale Wednesday December 18th, 2002 9:25:03 AM
cursing to himself, Kale move to get behind the minotaur group(now 90ft away from the group)
Flat-top d20+3=18 Wednesday December 18th, 2002 5:47:21 PM
"Girls I don't like this, watch those minotaurs of Proudhorn. I hope that Kale pick up a clue?" Flat-top is still listening as to what direction they are coming from.
Brahmah flying, invisible d20+2=8 d20=2 Wednesday December 18th, 2002 6:23:17 PM
(Dex check 8, taking 1 point of damage.... merely a scratch.) Brahmah continues back toward the group and when he gets close enough, he flys down towards Flat-top and then speaks, whispering in a disembodied voice. "We make a stand at the village! CenTaur zombies, lots of them. Find Leets and tell him to be ready. Let the Proudhorn alone, let them defend, I trust them.... for the most part. Get the ladies and Taric ready for spellcasting or whatever they do. (Spot Check 2) Where's Kale?" Thinking to himself, 'Good, he's working.'
Kenisha (AC=22) Thursday December 19th, 2002 12:14:05 AM
"I am ready, Brahmah." Kenisha says, keeping her eyes on the trees. "Although I do think you should warn the Minotaurs as to the exact nature of what they are facing."
(will maintain her readied action)
Ceira Thursday December 19th, 2002 1:04:17 AM
Ceira prepares her crossbow and moves to the side. If she has a chance to shoot, she will want to avoid having to shoot through her friends.
Leets Thursday December 19th, 2002 3:31:17 AM
"Chhh...Hey, I'm there Brahmah..."
Says Leets from behind a tree near Flat-Top.
"I'm going back to the village and prepare for their attack..."
The young paladin takes the way of the village, calling his dog...
"Come on Managarm, we've much to do and a battle ahead!"
Taric Thursday December 19th, 2002 3:43:30 AM
Taric sees a lot going on around them, but decides to stay with the Chosen as he is not able to discern what exactly is going on. He keeps his crossbow ready in case something comes into view though.
They're Heeeree(dm sam) d20=3 d20+3=22 d8+2=4 Thursday December 19th, 2002 9:16:26 AM
a few moments after Brahmah's voice tells the Chosen that the approaching menace are zombies, Leets starts to head back to the village(the edge of the village is 70 ft away). after moving about 20 ft, Leets hears the wailing become tremendously loud. a moment later a horde of zombies come marching out of the woods. at the same time, two arrows come shooting out of the woods towards Flat-Top, the first one falling just short but the second one graizes his arm for 4 pts of damage(everyone make spot check of 18 to see where the arrows came from). Proudhorn's group continues to move towards the woods, though something seems a bit out of place(int check of 12 to figure it out)
Kale d20+7=21 d20+2=8 Thursday December 19th, 2002 9:20:58 AM
seeing his friends begin to move back towards the village, Kale momentarly wonders if he should go back or stay where he is. then, when the zombie come out of the forest, Kale decides to move back to his friends, though he waits a bit and will try to get behind the undead. as he waits, he spies something in the wood(made spot check, failed int check)
Flat-top d20+1=18 d20=20 Thursday December 19th, 2002 2:37:50 PM
"Watch it! Girls! the arror came from over there. Lets start backing up and let Leets and I do the strong arms stuff. You girls do the magic stuff that you do so well." Flat-top sang the last verse.
(OOC question= How many are there in this horde of zombies?)
Kenisha nods and steps back a bit then casts Magic Missile, sending the three missiles off at three different targets (2 HP, 2 HP, and 3 HP of damage).
Ceira d20+3=8 Friday December 20th, 2002 10:08:28 AM
Although prepared for the enemy, Ceira is still surprised by the sheer number of undead. Her inital crossbow bolt is sent shooting into the sky.
Brahmah flying, invisible d20=19 d20-1=17 Friday December 20th, 2002 10:31:18 AM
(Spot of 19 made it!, Int Check 17 made it!)
Brahmah then darts back toward the forest as fast as his wings carry him. He finds a point between the three groups then hovers (6ft off the ground) and waits. (Readying an action, moved a very short distance then Readied) If Brahmah gets a clear view of everything and figures out what's going on, he'll move at best speed toward the biggest threat.
(OOC: Readying because both Brahmah and Jay are clueless. My gut tells me to charge the Proudhorn, but I've givin' them the benefit of the doubt.) :)
Taric d20=13 d20+2=20 Saturday December 21st, 2002 1:03:22 AM
Still clueless as to where the arrows are coming from Taric gets a strange feeling of understanding about the ongoing situation.
Letting himself fall back to stay close to the other Chosen he aims his crossbow but doesn't shoot yet. His mind is searching for the appropriate spell as well.
Brahmah (flying, invisible) Monday December 23rd, 2002 5:31:54 AM
The warrior ponders a passing cloud as he flutters there.
Brahmah invisible, flying Thursday December 26th, 2002 5:16:10 AM
Loses himself again, in yet another passing cloud.
Thinking to himself, 'That one looks like a sailing ship!'
Leets d20+3=15 2d6(5+1)+6=12 Thursday December 26th, 2002 3:24:50 PM
"Ok! Here we go! Are you ready Flat-Top?"
Leets quickly ties his holy symbol on the hilt of his sword, and tightens his grip on his shield once it's done.
"Domi! Help your children in this new battle against evil, show your power and give us courage and strength to protect the innocent! Bless our souls so that we don't fail, and our blades so that we slay the unholy!"
OOC: Leets cast Bless (+1 on attack, +1 on morale vs fear) on whoever is here to defend the village. Then, as soon as the undeads are close enough, he tries to turn as many of them as he can, able to turn a max 4HD undead, and turning a total of 12HD. As a 5th level Paladin, Leets is considered a 3rd level Cleric for turning...
Flat-top Saturday December 28th, 2002 7:44:28 AM
"Yes! Leets I'm ready. Let's go get them." Yells Flat-top.
Brahmah (flying, invisible) Monday December 30th, 2002 7:03:06 PM
Brahmah stays, flutting in the air, overlooking the grassy floor 15' below, wondering when life can begin again.
"Ho, hum."
Creeping Doom(dm sam) Monday December 30th, 2002 8:23:09 PM
Kenisha's bolts sizzle the zombie's flesh where they hit, but the undead monster's dont seem to notice. Ceira's bolt flies wide, then the group tries to catch up to Leets(Leets moved toward the town earlier, so he' one round ahead of everyone else). as the group retreats, those that made their spot check can see where the arrows came from, but cannot see who actually fired them. Kale and Brahmah are closer though, and they see eight shapes on the edge of the woods. four of them look like they may be centaurs, while the other four look like they may be minotaurs. they are too deep in the woods at the moment to make out any more details. those that made their int. check realize that only three or four zombies are attacking Proudhorn's group. a moment after this realization the group of minotaurs charges the zombies and begins to carve them up. the other zombies continue to close in on the Chosen and the town, though no arrows fly out of the forest this time.(Leets bless effects everyone except Brahmah and Kale, who are too far away, the zombies are still to far away to be turned though)
(OOC im going to try to have a map ready in the next day or two. here is everyone's location, as best as i can figure since everyone has a different movement rate. Leets and his dog is 30 ft away from the town, Flat-Top, Ceira, Taric, and Kenisha are 30 ft away from Leets, the zombies are 60' away from Flat-Top and the others, and the group in the woods are 110 ft away from Flat-Top's group. Kale is 40 ft from the Proudhorn group and 90' from Flat-Top's group. Brahmah is in a position where he is within 90' ft of all the groups. it may be a bit confusing, but if i get time ill make a map
just to make things easier the AC of the zombies is 11 and there are 30 of them)
Kale Monday December 30th, 2002 8:25:59 PM
Torn at what he should do, Kale decides to move back towards his group, knowing that they cannot handle that many zombies with two of their best fighters(himself and Brahmah) not there to help them(double movement rate to get back
Flat-top d20+1=19 Monday December 30th, 2002 10:14:28 PM
Flat-top is looking around and yells at Leets, "Theres alot of them, I'm going to make a charge at them, if they come to battle with you girls, Yell to me and I'll be right back."
Flat-top takes off, Yelling "Well, My Capitain, We need your help. Just a little mind you. He He He."
Flat-top will attack with his Morning star, he will be at full speed for this round. He will be attacking the nearest undead near him.
OOC:I don't think Flat-top can engage any one in this round.
Taric d4+1=3 Tuesday December 31st, 2002 12:51:34 AM
When Flat-Top sets off Taric motions him to stay for a moment, quickly chanting some words and touching the centaur, providing him with the possible necessary extra strength needed. Taric then loads his crossbow again while falling back to the village with the others.
OOC: cast "Bull's Strength" on Flat-Top. +3 Strength for Flat-Top for the coming 4 hours.
Ceira d20+3=13 d8+3=10 Tuesday December 31st, 2002 1:08:19 AM
Ceira fires off another bolt (Hits AC 13 for 10 dmg) in a direction away from any of her friends.
Brahmah (flying, invisible) d20+5=20 2d4(1+3)+9=13 Tuesday December 31st, 2002 4:03:50 AM
Brahmah hears Flat-tops pleading, looks briefly at the woods, then snarls. Brahmah turns immediately and heads to the group of zombies, entirely aware he'll be leaving the archers with an additional target when he becomes visible. If he's able to, he'll attack a zombie that he reaches within his flight range.
***If he's able, he'll attack, hitting AC 20, using Power Attack of +7, doing a total of 20 DAMAGE to a zombie. He becomes visible.***
Kenisha 6d6(3+2+5+5+3+4)=22 3d4(3+1+4)+3=11 Wednesday January 1st, 2003 9:55:25 AM
Kenisha moves back with the others and was about to cast a new spell when Flat-top took off back towards the undead. But given the sheer number of them she makes a choice and begins to cast.
(If she thinks that she can hit the zombies with her Lightning Bolt spell without hitting anyone from either the Minotaur or the Chosen groups she will (22 HP of damage). Otherwise she will cast Magic Missile aiming all three bolts at one zombie (11 HP of damage).
the zombies are pretty spread out so you can use your lightning bolt without any worries

Flat-Top moves toward the horde of zombies, but he just comes short of them. Taric casts his spell right before Flat-Top leaves, and Ceira's crossbow bolt tears a hole into zombie #1. Brahmah engages one of the zombies on the far right(#10). though his blade bites deep into the undead flesh, the zombie still stands, though it looks like its ready to fall. then Kenisha's lightning bolt tears into a group of zombies(1,2,20,19,21, and 22, none save). the first zombie(#1) falls over and stops moving and the otherslook like they are ready to drop too. the nearests zombies surround Flat-Top and Brahmah while the others continue to move forward. Flat-Top is attacked three times, with one of them smashing him with its club for 9 pts of damage. Four of them attack Brahmah from all sides, but only one of them hits the leader of the Chosen for 9 pts of damage. the rest of the zombies continue to move forward towards the town. the combat between Proudhorn's group and the other zombies continues, and the small group in the woods continue to stay where they are.
Kale d20+8=27 d10+5=7 Thursday January 2nd, 2003 12:44:12 AM
seeing Brahmah surrounded, Kale charges into the nearest one(#11) and slashes him with his sword(AC27 for 7 pts of damage) "Im here!" Kale yells out as he pops into view
Taric Thursday January 2nd, 2003 2:44:35 AM
Seeing the horde of zombies taking on Flat-Top, Taric moves forward, passing Ceira on the right-side and continuing on. He only stops to finish his chanting while pointing at the area where four zombies are standing, causing the area to become totally slippery.
OOC: move 30 ft (passing Ceira on the right side and ending 30 ft below the group of zombies 8, 27, 28, 30. Casting 'Grease' on that area (10 ft square). Zombies have to make a reflex save against DC 15 or fall down.
hello. sorry, but you only have a movement of 30 so if you want to cast your spell you can only move 1 ft. dm sam

Flat-top was charging into them, he get hurt but the momentum of his Morning Star with his shield, as he enters the gang of undead Flat-top will open his shield arm (To try to bash #29) While swinging his weapon in a figure eight motion. he hits (I hope) #6 for 12 HP, and on the return swing, Hits #7 with such force that he does double damage (18+13=31HP.) Flat-top yells at #14 (who is in front of him) "Your next!"
hello. sorry, but undead are immune to critical hits. dm sam
Brahmah (flying is still active) d20+8=10 d20+10=17 2d4(3+3)+9=15 Thursday January 2nd, 2003 4:30:25 AM
Having set down in the middle of the frey (his flight still active), Brahmah strikes at #10 in hopes the drop him. (Hits AC 10 missing horribly. Then he turns to attack the zombie #11 who is flanked by Brahmah and Kale,(hits AC 17, for 15 damage).
"Stay there Kale my kin, we'll turn these unnatural critters into zombie goo!" He smiles broadly as he Dodges #10 (AC vs #10 is 22).
Kenisha 6d6(4+5+5+3+4+6)=27 Thursday January 2nd, 2003 8:23:53 AM
Pleased with the results of the first Lightning Bolt, Kenisha casts it again, this time making it 10' wide and 80 foot long. Again doing her best to avoid hitting any friendly, she aims it for the back of the large group of zombies (ie zombies 16 through 21 for 27 HP of damage).
Ceira Thursday January 2nd, 2003 10:17:46 AM
Ceira is quite impressed with the magical might of the Chosen. Careful not to get in Kenisha's way, Ceira shuffles over to the left of Leet's and loads another crossbow bolt.
2nd Round(dm sam) d20+4=8 d20+4=8 d20+4=18 d8+4=5 d20+4=23 d20+4=21 d20+4=9 d8+4=12 d8+4=6 d20+4=20 d20+4=22 d8+4=11 d8+4=12 Thursday January 2nd, 2003 10:40:47 PM
Taric's spell causes one of the zombies to fall on the ground(#8) but the others seem to get out of the area ok. Kenisha's second lightning bolt does alot more damage than her first one, dropping 5 zombies and seriously damaging several others. Flat-Top, Brahmah, and Kale all land heavy blows to their foes, but the zombies hit continue to attack back. Flat-Top is attacked by three of them(#8 fell to the ground) and is hit once, taking 5 pts of damage. Brahmah is also attacked3 times, being hit twice for 12 and 6 pts of damage(18 total). Kale is attacked twice and hit twice for 11 and 2 (23 total)pts of damage. the others continue to move forward, with one of them(#5) engaging Taric but unable to attack. the small group in the woods still dont seem to be doing anything, and Proudhorn's group continues to fight their zombies
Kale d20+6=14 d20+6=26 d10+5=9 d10+5=15 Thursday January 2nd, 2003 10:44:12 PM
reeling from the zombies, Kale grips his swords tightly and uses one attack on #11 and the other one on #30, doing 9 pts to #11 and 15 pts to #30. "This is harder than I thought." Kale says as he wipes blood from his face
Taric d4+1=4 Friday January 3rd, 2003 3:13:05 AM
Seeing the zombies approach in front of him he takes a step backwards and casts a protective spell over himself, or merely a help to stay alive.
OOC: steps 5 ft backwards (southeast direction) and casts mirror image, creating 4 images of himself.
Brahmah (flying is still active) d20+8=28 d20+8=14 2d4(4+3)+9=16 2d4(1+2)+9=12 Friday January 3rd, 2003 3:19:26 AM
Brahmah continues with his assault, consumed with the thought of protecting the village and showing Domi that Brahmah still does his works.
(Brahmah hits AC 28 vs #10 for 16 damage, and he turns to hit #11, hits AC 14(+flank hits AC 16) for 12 damage).
"Kale! Yur dooing grreaat!" Shouts the Captain.
hi. Kale was able to drop #11 so i redirected your attack to #12. dm sam
Kenisha 3d4(2+4+4)+3=13 6d6(5+2+3+4+2+3)=19 Friday January 3rd, 2003 8:34:35 AM
Kenisha's hair practically crackles with electricity as she lets loose her spells. Now she takes a five foot step back and looks over the situation, looking for the best place to help out in the battle.
(Since I don't know which of the advancing zombies are left and how they are grouped, I'll leave it up to the kind graces of our GM to assist here.
1. If Kenisha thinks she can do it without hurting Flat-top, Brahmah or Kale, she'll let loose another Lightnight bolt 10' wide between Flat-top and Brahmah to catch the zombies there. 19 HP of damage.
or
2. Kenisha will angle her Lightning Bolt so as to best hit as many of the advancing zombies without hitting her friends. 19 HP of damage.
or
3. If neither of those two options looks good, she'll Hit one of the zombies attacking Flat-top with all three missiles from a Magic Missile. 13 HP of damage.)
hello. you should do the 2nd one. did you not get my 2nd map? dm sam
Ceira d20+3=9 Friday January 3rd, 2003 10:37:21 AM
Ceira fires her crossbow at zombie #4 but misses (hit AC 9). In a moment of shock, she starts going backwards as far as allowable to get away.
hello. i just realized you are using a lt. crossbow, and since your a large sized creature you can shoot it every round, not every other round. dm sam

"Ouch! I don't like you." Flat-top swings again at (#14-) hitting him for (27hp I hope), Flat-top now rears and will hit (#6) with his hooves for (8+7=15 hp). "Now want some more? Well, just twitch."

up front, Brahmah carves up one of the zombies attacking him(#10) and delivers a serious blow to another(#12). Kale also finishes off one of the monsters(#11) and continues his assault on the other one. Flat-Top delivers some serious damage to his foes, but none of the zombies drop to the ground. Taric is just able to avoid the incomeing zombie and casts him spell on himself. instead of 1 Taric there are now 5. the another burst of lightning bursts from Kenisha's fingertips and four more of the undead centaurs fall to the ground, their charred flesh stinking up the air. Ceira's bolt hits in the ground at the feet of one of the zombies, then she retreats away from the horde.
the zombie that fell in Taric's grease spell tries to get up, but all it manages to do is fall back down. two of the zombies move to engage Brahmah and Kale, but are not able to attack. the three on Flat-Top attack him once again, with one of them clipping the centaur on his shoulder for 5 pts. two of them attack Brahmah, but both of their attempts miss. the last one attacks Kale, but the Rogue is able to dodge out of the way at the last second
near the village, Taric's images are surrounded by zombies. after several attacks on the illusions, Taric is able to avoid any damage, though only one of his images remains. the group by the village is in serious damage of being over run by the undead centaurs.
back up top, Prounhorn's group finishes off the last of their zombies and begin to move into the forest. the other group that has been waiting on the outskirts ofthe forest still linger there, not doing anything
Kale d20+6=19 d20+6=9 d10+5=14 Saturday January 4th, 2003 4:51:27 PM
"We need to get back to the town!" Kale cries out as he continues his attack on #30, hitting once for 14 pts.
Flat-top [62/53 hp] d20+21=38 d20+15=35 d20+10=26 d4+15=16 d4+10=11 d8+10=14 Sunday January 5th, 2003 11:36:00 AM

Flat-top looks at #7 (with teeth clench) "So we want to play I'LL SEE YOU DEAD LIKE ME?? Take this kiss from My Morning Star." Blam! The Centaur rears up on his hind hooves and strike at # 14, still on his hind Legs, hops to his left (about an eight of a turn) and hits #6 with his other Hoof. "Captain B, Kale How's Proudhorn doing??"
howdy. #14 has moved away from you, so i redirected your attack to #29. dm sam
Kenisha d4+1=4 d4+1=5 d4+1=4 Sunday January 5th, 2003 11:10:23 PM
(ooc: since there isn't an updated map yet...)
Kenisha targets three of the advancing zombies that look the worst off and each one gets a missile from a Magic Missile spell.
(4 HP of damage to the first, 5 HP of damage to the second, and 4 HP of damage to the third)
Brahmah (flying is still active) d20+8=14 2d4(1+2)+9=12 d20+8=17 2d4(2+4)+9=15 Monday January 6th, 2003 2:12:32 AM
Brahmah sees that he's almost sent the creature back where he belongs, he plans to finish off zombie #12 (hitting AC 14 for 12 damage).
Then he switches his other attack and twirls his second blade toward zombie #13, the flanked zombie (hitting AC 17 (+2 flanking hitting 19), for 15 damage.
Brahmah then adjusts his position with a 5 foot step toward #30 (no attack of opportunity from the zombies, only 5 feet step)
"Kale, keep it up! Flat-top, need me over there? o' you okay!?"
Taric, only one image remaining d20+5=20 2d6(5+6)=11 Monday January 6th, 2003 3:00:33 AM
Taric is glad for the images he created but realizes he is in the middle of the advancing horde. Letting himself fall back he tells the others to "Fall Back!" at the loudest tone they have heard so far from him.
Taric himself walks back straight south to provide some cover for Kenisha behind him and shoots his crossbow at another of the zombies.
OOC: moving southwards 10 ft (ending in front of Kenisha) and shoots at zombie #3 (hits AC 20 for 11 damage)
Leets(dm sam) d20+6=19 d8+2=9 d20+4=7 Monday January 6th, 2003 8:36:05 AM
overcoming the horror that he feels, Leets finally snaps into action "Managarm, with me!" Leets yells as he and his dog charge into combat. Leets attacks #2, his blow landing solidly for 9 pts. Managarm attacks #3, but his bite has no effect on the zombie(missed attack)
Ceira Monday January 6th, 2003 10:06:23 AM
Judging by the trajectory of the zombie horde, an idea pops in Ceira's head.
She briefly glances back towards the town and then proceeds casts a wall of Silent Image 15 ft in front of the nearest group of zombies (1-5, 15, 16, 25-28). The shape resembles a fence in front of the zombie group's vision. The vision will be a 2D image of the village.
The trick of this image is that she will shift the image 5 ft every 1/2 round to make it look like the village is more to THEIR right. Her goal is to make the zombies subconsciously veer to their right while their focus is on Taric, Leets and Kenisha.
Everytime a zombie advances forward, Ceira will adjust the shape of the fenced image to keep the image 15 ft in front of every zombie. She will avoid overlapping any of her friends so it won't ruin the image.

Up top, Flat-Top dispatches two of his foes(#6 and 7) and Kale is able to drop one(#30). Brahmah once again inflicts serious damage, and though several of the zombies look ready to drop, none of them do. #14 moves into the grease area to get to Flat-Top but slips in the grease spell, falling to the ground, as does #8. then the grease spell fades away(lasted 4 rounds). Flat-Top faces one of the zombies, but its club flies wide. Brahmah also faces off with one of the zombies, who also misses with its attempt. the last two attack Kale, but he's able to dodge their attempts.
down below, Taric moves back to protect Kenisha but on his way back is struck a devistation blow(attack of oppurtunity, critical hit with another hit) for 13 pts of damage(6 +7). even though he is in terrible pain, he manages to hit squarly with his crossbow. Kenishas magic missles burns undead flesh once again, but none of the zombies drop to the ground. Leets is able to finish off one of the zombies that Kenisha burns, but his companion has no such luck. Ceira casts her illusion and places it directly behind Kenisha. the remaining zombies swarm the small group. Leets faces 2 attacks but both of the blows bounce off his armor. Managarm also avoids injury. once again Taric's mirror image saves him from injury, though he's been surrounded by zombies. another zombie moves to engage Kenisha.(Ceira make a wisdome check)
back up top, Proudhorn's group charges into the woods and dissapears from sight. the small group in the woods finally moves out into the opening. the first thing Flat-Top, Brahmah, and Kale notice is that there are four centaur zombies like the ones they are fighting right now, except they are wearing black breastplates with a white skull engraved on them. but thats nothing compaired to what follows them out. four minotaurs, all wearing black armour with skulls engraved on them. the first one is wearing full plate armor and carries a scythe in one hand and a shield in the other. he wears a helmet shaped like a skull. the second one wears full plate armor too and carries a huge two handed scythe in his hand. he also wears a helmet shaped like a skull. the third is dressed in full plate too and carries a longbow. on his face is painted a white skull. and the last one is wearing studded leather and is also carring a longbow. his face too is painted with a white skull. the one with the scythe and shield points his weapon at Flat-Top and the others nod. the two with the bows fire at the centaur, though both arrows fly wide. the first minotaur with his scythe pointed at F-Top yells out "FREEZE!!!" and Flat-Top feels compeled to obey him(make will save of 15 Flat-Top or your flozen for the round). the other minotaur with the giant scythe casts another spell centered on Flat-Top, and the centaur feels evil flow all around im.(casts deserate in a 20' around Flat-Top, undead in the area get +1 to hit, dmg, and saving throws)

"I will return you to your grave!" Leets yells as he attacks #4 with his longsword(hits, 9 pts of dmg.) and uses his hooves on #25(two hits, total of 10 pts). his loyal dog attacks #3, taking a bite out of the zombie(hits for 9 pts)

Kenisha takes a five foot step back away from zombie # 16 (so that she's behind Taric and blasts zombie #16 with all three missiles from her Magic Missile. (12 HP of damage)
Ceira d20+1=18 d8+2=3 Tuesday January 7th, 2003 1:15:30 AM
(OOC: Wisdom=18)
If zombies continue towards the town, then she will continue focusing on her Silent Image. If the zombies are only focused on getting a kill, she will break it off and shoot her crossbow at #5.
Taric (19/32 hp) d20+3=23 d8+2=6 Tuesday January 7th, 2003 3:40:58 AM
With the zombies in front of him and clenching his teeth from the pain of the last hit Taric decides to use his horns to attack the zombie attacking Kenisha.
OOC: attack = 23, damage = 6
hello, Kenisha finished off the zombie that attacked her, so i redirected your attack to one of them on you(#27)

Brahmah once again lays into the unnatural menace, he knows is just a distraction, and his suspicions are confirmed as the metal clad octoplet approaches the village and fire at Flat-top. "Yup! Figured it'd be something like that!" He says sarcastically.
He attacks #12 hitting AC 13 for 16 damage (assuming he hit anything!). Then he turns to #13 and hits AC 22 for 12 damage.
"Kale, Flat-top... regroup! The others needs us!" Brahmah then takes a 5 foot adjust behind Kale. "Regroup!"
Flat-top [62/53 hp] d20+8=28 Tuesday January 7th, 2003 8:12:01 AM
Flat-top feels a little cold breeze, But it goes away.(made my will check) Flat-top when ha notices the menacing eight, "I don't know who or what they are, BUT we are going to have fun." Flat-top changes from Morning Star to his long sword. "Do we finish here or do we advance to the pretty faces over there?"
Flat-top Tuesday January 7th, 2003 8:17:18 AM
"OK! OK! I'll regroup, I don't like it but I'll regroup."

Up top, Brahmah finishes off another of the zombies(#12) then moves to help Kale, who is unable to finish off his foe. Flat-Top switches weapons and finds himself almost surrounded as the two zombies that have been hindered by the grease field pick themselves up and move to attack. Flat-Top faces 3 zombies but none of them are able to harm the centaur. Kale faces the other two zombies, getting hit twice for a total of 13 pts. the small group of minotaurs and zombies continue their movement. the first minotaur continues to move towards Flat-Top. the second one moves 10 ft and begins to chant. a moment later a large scythe made of complete darkness appears right in front of Brahmah it moves to slash the minotaur but Brahmah is just able to dodge out of the way. the other tow continue forward towards Flat-Top.
down by the village, Ceira realizes that the zombies seem to be far more interested in the Chosen than the village(rolled damage for your crossbow) Leets destroys the two zombies engaged with him, and Kenisha blasts #13 out of existance. Taric heroicly charges the closest zombie, though he seems to do little damage to the monster. Leets faces one more zombie, getting nailed for 9 pts. his dog also gets attacked and is struck for 11 pts. once again Taric faces the brunt of the zombies attacks, and not only is the minotaur's last mirror image dispelled, Taric is struck twice for(ac 17 and 23) for 21 total points of damage. Taric falls under the hail of blows. and Kenisha is attack by the last zombie, getting hit(ac 18) for 11. pts.

Taric (-2/32 hp) Tuesday January 7th, 2003 7:17:50 PM
Trying to protect their second leader Taric feels the blows rain down on him. He takes a last look at the battlefield before everything becomes dark and he falls down.
Brahmah (fly is still active) d20+4=14 d20+4=23 d20+4=24 2d4(3+4)+9=16 2d4(3+1)+9=13 Tuesday January 7th, 2003 8:48:04 PM
Brahmah smirks as he sees #4 coming up behind him. He takes a 5 foot step toward #4, Dodging #4 and fighting defensively (his AC jumps to 24 versus 4).
He swings at the steel clad Taur hoping to draw them 'all' toward himself rather than Kale or Flat-top.
He hits AC 14 which is a miss, and a confirmed critical versus #4 for 29 points of damage on #4. (Both attacks were calculated -4 for fighting defensively.)
Brahmah growls at #4 as he keeps the blade in the wound momentarily.
"Regroup! I'll be there shortly!"
hello, undead are immune to critical hits, so your hit is just a normal one
Ceira Wednesday January 8th, 2003 2:10:42 AM
Ceira curses herself for wasting her time on her illusion when the real focus were the Chosen. After seeing Taric fall, she quickly casts Invisibility on herself.
(OOC: Don't worry Taric, I have a potion coming your way. Question... if I drag Taric's body away from the skirmish, would that nullify my invisibility or would everyone just see a sliding body? Freaky!)
its not an offensive action, so you would say invisible
Leets (49/58) & Managarm (16/27) d20+3=22 2d6(4+1)+6=11 d20+4=12 d6+8=11 Wednesday January 8th, 2003 4:29:53 AM
Seeing Taric fall and more zombies arriving, Leets goes really angry and suddenly stands high on his back legs, holding his shield and sword high.
"Taurs you were and Taurs you shall recognize the allmighty power of our divine father! Whoever pulls the dark strings entangling your souls, look at the light of our true lord and bow before his power, sons and daughters of Domi!"
Leets then tries to turn the undead that are around him, Kenisha and the wounded Taric: Turning check 22: Leets can turn a 7HD undead max. Turning damage: 11: Leets turns 11HD of undeads.
While the holy light of Domi shines and burns the foul creatures, Managarm jumps by Taric's side and attacks #28, surrounded by the holy aura of the celestial dog (with his smite evil ability). Attack 12, 11 damage (D6+4+4HD for the smite evil).
Flat-top [62/53 hp] d20+14=15 d8+2=10 Wednesday January 8th, 2003 6:30:29 AM
OOC: To hit AC 15 - I don't know if I hit anyone, BUT if I did he gets 10hp of damage.
"Look out! I'm Coming!" Yell Flat-top. He Swing in a big circle with his long sword. Flat-top will quickly move to regroup with Kale and Brahmah, hopefuly avoiding any weapons, "I don't like Scykles, they rough on the skin."
Kenisha (30/41 HP, AC=22) d20+8=23 Wednesday January 8th, 2003 7:44:53 AM
Kenisha holds her ground and concentrating hard (Concentration check=23) casts Mage Armor on herself.
She then looks at the various zombies around her and tries to determine which ones look the worst off.
Kale 2d8(4+3)+5=12 Wednesday January 8th, 2003 9:35:54 AM
reeling from the zombie's blows, Kale takes a 5 step back and pulls out a potion and drinks it(cure mod. wounds, 12 back)

up top, Flat-Top's wild swing is enough to bring down one of the zombies(#29) and he moves to link up with the minotaurs. Brahmah connects solidly with one of his blows, but it doesnt do as much damage as he thought(undead are immune to critical hits). Kale moves beside him and gulps down a potion. the dark scythe follow Brahman and slashes at him again, biting deeply into Brahmah's flesh(7 pts of dm) the other armored zombie moves to engage Brahman, but isnt able to attack. the other one is though, but his club bounces of Brahmah's armor. the other zombies close in on Flat-Top and Kale, but the two taurs are able to avoid any damage. the rest of the armored zombies and the minotaurs continue to move forward with the one closest to Flat-Top(#4) pulling out two flails and begins to swing them, hatred written on his face.
down below, Leets holy power causes the two zombies nearest to him(#5 and 3) to flee back towards the woods.(Leets, you get an attack of oppurtunity on #5). Managarm takes a bite out of the zombie, but the undead centaur is still in the fight. Ceira turns invible, Taric continues to bleed(-3 now) and all the zombies still look pretty strong to Kenisha. one of the zombies moves to engage Leets but misses the paladin. another of the zombies move to attack Kenisha while the other one continues its attack, both of them missing. the last zombie attacks Managarm, but he also misses

"alright! What are you doing here,your dead Centaurs?". Flat-top swing his sword with all his might (on #13 hit at 27 - damage at 8hp) then rears up using his hooves (on #8 hit at 27-21 - damages at 7+7=14hp) "Captain B. Tell me where is Proudhorn? And his Party of Taurs? Where are all these Zombies coming from? A Horn of Plenty?"
Brahmah (fly is still active) 25 of 59 hp Wednesday January 8th, 2003 5:47:53 PM
***OOC: SAM YOU HAD NOT SPECIFIED WHETHER THE GREEN NUMBERS OR THE BLUE NUMBERS WERE THE UNDEAD, I FIGURED THE BLUE NUMBERS WERE BECAUSE THEY WERE HEADED FOR THE DESCRATION. SO I ROLLED MY CRITICAL.
IC:
Brahmah turns, grabbing Kale undead the arms, "Sorry my friend, we must be going." Then Brahmah's large wings begin to beat, lifting himself and Kale into the air (15 up and however closer toward the Chosen, all he does is move). (Brahmah's max lift is 2600 pounds) He moves back toward the Chosen. "Regroup Flat-top, the Proudhorn have abandoned us! Cowards!"
OOC: I'm not sure how you want to do this... he's lifting something off the ground, but only moving and nothing else, if you want an attack of op on Brahmah, take it.
OOC: whoopse, my mistake. the blue numbers are the armored zombies, the green ones are the minotaurs. also, #1 and #2 green minotaurs are the ones who cast the spells.
Brahmah (JAY) Wednesday January 8th, 2003 10:38:23 PM
OOC: Geez, Brahmah grabbed Kale under the arms.
CHANGE** Brahmah turns, grabbing Kale undead the arms, "Sorry my friend, we must be going."

Kenisha takes a 5 foot step so that she's between Leets and zombie number #26 then blasts #26 with all three missiles from a Magic Missile.
(Concentration check=20, for 11 HP of damage)
Leets (49/58) & Managarm (21/27), Blessed (+1 to attack) d20+8=23 d8+2=7 d20+3=15 2d6(5+3)+6=14 d20+4=8 Thursday January 9th, 2003 9:00:38 AM
Leets first strikes #5 with his longsword as the undead tries to flee: Attack 23, Damage 7.
"As well as Domi will never allow Taur corpses to be used like unholy puppets, neither will he let his faithful servants fall!"
The Centaur paladin then comes closer to Taric, still intimidating the undead and radiating the holy energy granted to him by Domi (4th turning/6 for today). Turning 15, so works on 4HD undeads max, and Leets turns 14HD of undeads withing 60ft.
He finally puts a hand on Taric's chest and heals 14HP.
"Come back among us, Taric of Domi's Chosen, we still need you!"
During this time, Managarm still attacks the same undead (#28), with an attack of 8 that misses...
OOC: turing undead counts as an action, so you cant turn and heal the same round. since you said you turned first, thats the action ill go with
Round 7(dm sam) d20+4=7 d20+6=19 d10+5=14 d20=18 2d6(3+5)+3=11 d20+5=8 d20+4=12 Thursday January 9th, 2003 3:54:32 PM
up top, Kale finishes off the two zombies that have been attacking him. a moment later Brahmah picks up Kale and flies them both towards the village(Att of opp. missed). Flat-Top continues his assault, but is unable to drop any of the zombies. the four armored zombies continue to move towards the village, as do minotaur 1,2, and three. minotaur #4 lets out a loud warcry and charges Flat-Top in his flank. Flat-Top catches the minotaur's flail right on his shoulder(14 pts of damage). the two zombies that Leets turned continue to flee until the come close the minotaur #2, who pulls out a dark holy symbol and begins to chant. a moment later the zombies turn back around to face the town(command undead, effects 5 hds, up to 11 hd) as he's flying, the dark scythe takes one more swipe at Brahmah(misses) then it dissapears
down below, Ceira is able to get to Taric but she isnt able to drag him at the moment. Kenisha blasts #26 and seems to cause some real damage. Once again Leets brandishes his symbol and this time 3 of the zombies flee from his holy light(Leets take an attack of oppurtunity on #15). then the paladin move next to Taric. as there is only one zombie in the immediatly area it attacks Brahmah's companion but misses. the party is just about joined up again, though Flat-Top is all alone and surrounded by enemies(Taric, i forgot to have you make a stabaliation check. roll 10% or under and you stablized the first round you went down and remain at -2. if not your at -4 now)
Kale 2d8(2+6)+5=13 Thursday January 9th, 2003 3:56:36 PM
while he's flying through the air, Kale pulls out another potion and drinks it down(CMW, heals 13 back). "I have one more Brahmah. Do you need it?"
Brahmah (flying) 25 of 59 Thursday January 9th, 2003 4:29:01 PM
Brahmah continues to fly toward the Chosen and village (a little more than 20 feet off the ground now). He blinks a couple of times at the scythe wielding Taurs disappearance, but nothing more could surprise him about this day.
Kale asks about needing a potion, the Captain knods an affirmative, but with his hands VERY occupied he can't drink it himself. "Kale, I do need it. I'll owe you a couple of my curelights from my pack." (OOC: Can Kale please feed it to their leader? ;) )

Flat-top knowing that he can do nothing but die here where he is out numbered. Has to take the chance of being badly hurt, But will have to turn and race to the group. Flat-top will rears one more time to back the enermy off a few feet. Then turn and RUNS for Kenisha's group.

Kenisha, now not worried with the zombies for the moment, decides to use her last lightning bolt on the new (to her eyes) combatants. She has it start with the two closest to her (Blue 1&2 and angles it to Green 2; the area of the spell will cover the following additional enemies, zombies 3,5,&15 and Green 1. It will not include Green 3 nor zombies 26 &27. Damage= 24 HP)

Forgot to mention, the lightning bolt is 10ft wide.
Ceira 3d8(2+1+2)+3=8 Friday January 10th, 2003 10:46:28 AM
Ceira digs through her backpack. "Where is that darned... Ah ha!" the pulls out a potion of Cure Serious Wounds from her backpack and uncorks it. *boop* She slowly drains the potion down Taric's throat healing 8hp.
When she's done, she heads over to Brahmah and Kale's direction.

(OOC sorry but i cant wait for your post Leets. we're under a time limit)
Flat-Top takes a few more swings at the surrounding zombies then he runs towards the village. as he flees Flat-Top takes two hits(zombie hit AC23 and minotaur #4 hit AC 18 for attacks of oppurtunity) for a total of 18 pts of damage. as he runs he sees a blinding flash as Kenisha's lightning bolt smashes through more of the enemies. one of the zombies falls to the ground(#3) and the others she hit seem to have suffered greatly. nearing the village, Kale is able to feed Brahmah his last potion(Brahmah heals 12 pts back). Ceira adminsters her potion to Taric, and the wounded minotaur slowly rises back to his feet. then she moves back to where Brahmah and Kale are hovering. the only zombie able to attack does so but misses Leets' mystical dog. all the other zombies move forward, except for #15,26 and 27, who continue to flee when minotaur #1's attempt to dispel Leet's turning fails. Minotaur #3 shoots his bow at Kenisha, but his arrow bounces off her Mage Armor. minotaur #4 also shoots his bow, his target being Flat-Top. but his arrow also misses as it flies off into the village.
Kale d20+6=25 d6=6 Saturday January 11th, 2003 8:06:13 AM
as hes being held in the air, Kale pulls out his shortbow and takes a shot at the closest zombie to Flat-Top(#13), sinking his arrow deep in its chest(hit AC25 for 6 pts) "Let me down Brahmah." Kale says to his leader. "I can do more damage with my swords than with my bow."
Leets Saturday January 11th, 2003 11:27:05 AM
Now near Taric and seeing most of the undeads fleeing, Leets takes some time to heal 14HP (with his lay on hands ability, stabilizing Taric in the same time...).
Flat-top ac 20- 62/20hp d20+16=28 d20+16=34 d8+4=12 d8+4=9 Saturday January 11th, 2003 6:56:18 PM
Flat-top charges #28 at full galop. Swings with his long sword and hit him (at ac28)making critical damages of (21hp). Flat-top is feeling a little weak, but will stop next to Ceira, "Ceira I have a few 2 cure pink light wounds and 1 potion of healing. There yours to do as you wish." Then he drops his saddle bags next to her. Flat-top will try to go protect Kenisha and the others. .
Kenisha (30/41, AC=22, Mage Armor) 3d4(2+3+4)+3=12 Monday January 13th, 2003 1:42:41 AM
Kenisha takes a diagonal 5 foot step away from Blue 2 so that she's now south of Leets and fires all three missiles from a Magic Missile at Blue 2 (for 12HP of Damage)
Brahmah (flying is still active), 37 of 59 d20+12=20 2d4(2+3)+9=14 Monday January 13th, 2003 2:46:15 AM
Brahmah let's Kale down and sets himself down as well. Brahmah then walks up to blue #2 and swings at it.
(hits AC 20, for 14 damage)
The leader then asks Kenisha, "How are you doing? How's the wee one?!" He startles a bit when shot blasts the undead with her bolts. "Cool."
Ceira (Still Invisible) Monday January 13th, 2003 11:13:23 AM
(OOC: Ceira is a little far from you Flat-top but she can head over there to pick up the potions.)
Ceira's voice cries out, "Thanks Flat-top. Just lay them down and I'll go get them later!"
Once Kale is back on the ground, Ceira's invisible voice whispers, "Hold still, it's me Ceira. Try backstabbing someone." She places her hand on Kale and casts Invisiblity.
Taric, conscious (32/18 hp) Monday January 13th, 2003 1:30:07 PM
Opening up his eyes Taric stands up and amasses the situation.
"Thank you Domi for letting me continue help the others!"
Taric then sets a step back southwest and casts a protective spell at himself.
OOC: taking a 5-foot step southwest and casting 'shield' in front of him.

Kale's arrow drops the zombie to the ground, and the combine efforts of Brahmah and Kenisha finishes off one of the armored zombies(#2). Flat-Top's charge almost flatens the zombie, but its still in the fight. everyone else prepares spells for the upcoming fight. the zombies that Leets turned earlier continue their flight into the forest. the rest of the undead centaurs continue their march forward. Flat-Top is attacked by #28 and engaged by #8, but he's able to avoid any damage. Bramah is attacked by blue #1 and engaged by #5, but he too is able to avoid any damage. minotaur #2 chants for a few moments then some of his wounds close up(cast CMW on himself for 15 pts). Minotaur #3 launches an arrow at Leets, but the arrow bounces off Leets' shield. the others continue to move forward.
Kale(invisible) Monday January 13th, 2003 5:31:36 PM
whispering to Ceira "You got it." Kale begins to move towards the spellcasters, thinking that they pose the biggest threat
Brahmah (flying still active) 37 of 59 d20+8=27 2d4(2+1)+9=12 d20+8=27 2d4(1+1)+9=11 Monday January 13th, 2003 7:13:25 PM
Brahmah, somewhat out of breath now, swings at the armored zombie (blue #1). He hits AC 27(unfortunately no crit threat on undead) for 12 damage, then his last attack hits AC 27(unfortunately no crit threat on undead) for 11 damage. *** If #1 drops, he turns his attention to #5, and smiles. (turning Dodge to #5, only if #1 drops)
"Ceira, go heal the others if you can!" Hoping his friend is still alive, he can't see her.
Kenisha (30/41, AC=22, Mage Armor) 3d4(1+3+3)+3=10 Monday January 13th, 2003 11:34:59 PM
Kenisha will take another five foot step (if necessary) to stay away from blue#1 while sending all three of her next Magic Missile to Green#3 for 10 HP of damage.
Taric (18/32hp, shield spell active) d20+5=18 2d6(4+2)=6 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 1:31:31 AM
Taric takes a few small steps and fires at the closest armored undead minotaur.
OOC: orientate shield spell to be in front of him (shield running from west to east) to provide Taric with the most cover bonus possible. He then moves 20 ft southwest and fires at the blue #1, hitting AC 18 for 6 damage.
Flat-top ac 20 - 62/20hp d20+16=35 d20+9=26 d8+2=8 d8+2=10 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 4:27:57 AM
Flat-top sheds his saddle bags for Ceira to pick up. Then Stand fast and faces #28 hitting him (ac 35) for 8hp of damages. Then turn slitly and hits #8 for 10hp of damages. "Come on Boys Let's Play!"
LeetsLeets (49/58) & Managarm (21/27), Blessed (+1 to attack) d20+10=28 d8+4=7 d20+4=12 d20+5=21 d6+4=9 d20+5=17 d6+4=6 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 10:37:16 AM
"Managarm! Take care of Kenisha while I'm away! Don't let those creatures threaten her!"
Says Leets tihgtening his grip on his sword.
"Now it's time to face those responsible for all this!"
Leets begins to trot in the direction of Minotaur #3, and going more and more quickly as he gets closer.
"YOU TAURS!!! You shall feel the wrath of Domi's servants for your unholy scheme! Drop your weapon now and maybe we'll spare your lives!"
When Leets finally reaches his opponent (#3), he charges with all the weight of his full plate barding, with his longsword (28 to hit, 7 damage).
Intimidate: 12
During this time, Managarm jumps at blue#1's throat (21 to hit, 9 damage) and uses one charge of the collar of haste to have a second attack (partial action: attack 17, 6 damage).
Ceira Tuesday January 14th, 2003 11:01:59 AM
Ceira shuffles over to where Flat-top shed his pack. She rummages through it until she grasps a hold of the two CLW potions. Without giving herself away, she keeps quiet and reminds herself to thank him later.
(OOC: Not sure about the map but Ceira will stand near Flat-top since he has the lowest hp in melee.)

the three of the zombies flee into the woods. the combine efforts of Brahmah, Taric, and Managarm drop the armored zombie to the ground while Flat-Top finishes off one of his opponents(#28). Leets and Kenisha also do damage to one of the minotaurs, but Leets finds himself in a very dangerous position as ALL the minotaurs charge the brave centaur. the one wielding the scythe and the shield misses, as does the one wielding the two handed scythe. the one that Leets charged pulls out a huge battleaxe but once again Leets armor saves him from its biting blade. the last one swings one of his flails at Leets head but the nimble centaur is able to duck the blow. the one remaining zombie continues to attack Brahmah but the minotaur is able to anticipate the move and easily dodges the blow. Flat-Top is charged by one of the armored zombies and the other zombie continues its attack. the armored one takes Flat-Top by surprise and smashes his flank for 8 pts of damage. to her surprise, Ceira is also charged by the remaining zombie(remember my email, undead are immune to all mind altering spells, including invisibility) but she is able to keep her wits about her and is able to dodge out of the way
Kale(invisible) d20+10=16 d20+10=25 d10+5=14 2d6(1+6)=7 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 2:30:31 PM
seeing that Leets is in serious trouble, Kale runs as fast as he can and plunges his sword at #2 greens back(used hero point for re-roll). he connects solidly14 pts +7 for sneak attack - 21 total) and then he pops into view. "Looks like you could use some help." Kale says to Leets.
Ceira Tuesday January 14th, 2003 3:17:03 PM
(OOC: After being attacked, I don't know if I'm still invisible at this point or not. If I spend a full round to move away, does that still provoke an Attack-Of-Opportunity? Sorry guys, I temporarily left my PHB at my parent's house.)
Not intending to get this close, Ceira will spend a full-round action to move over to where Taric is standing.
hi. you will provke an attack of opportunity but you are still invisible until you preform an offensive action. dm sam
Brahmah (flying still active) 37 of 59 d20+14=26 2d4(1+1)+9=11 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 5:31:54 PM
Realizing Leets could be in dire-straights by charging into the group of minoTaurs, Brahmah ignores #5 entirely and leaves to attack #1. He flies into the frey, charging #1 hitting AC 26, for (ack! minimum damage) 11 damage. "I'll never understand paladins, never. Leets!"
Flat-top [ac20 62/12hp d20+16=31 d20+16=33 d8+4=8 d8+4=11 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 5:46:44 PM
Flat-top is getting dizzy, BUT he still full strenth into hid swing (#4 blue - 31) doing 8hp of damages. the come back swing on #13 hit (ac 33) doing the damage of 11 hp. "Disapointed Buddies that I'm still standing, if you want me dead your going to have to work for it."
Taric [ac16+shield-spell, 18/32 hp) d20+5=21 2d6(2+3)=5 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 7:28:03 PM
Taric moves to the east to assist Flat-top by attacking one of his attackers.
OOC: move 25 ft to the east and attacks blue #4 with his crossbow. Hit AC 21 for 5 damage
hello. you can only move half your movement if you still want to shoot your crossbow(you have a movement of 30, so you can move up to 15 ft and still do an action)
Kenisha (30/41, AC=22, Mage Armor) d4+1=4 d4+1=2 d4+1=3 Tuesday January 14th, 2003 10:48:38 PM
Kenisha pulls out her Wand of Magic Missiles and fires off two of the missiles at zombie #5 and one at zombie #8.
She will then takes a five foot step diagonally away from zombie #5 if it doesn't drop. If it does fall, she'll stay where she is.
Leets (49/58) & Managarm (21/27), Blessed (+1 to attack) d20+8=27 d20+8=24 2d8(8+6)+4=18 d20+7=26 d20+7=26 d4+2=5 d4+2=4 Wednesday January 15th, 2003 4:22:23 AM
"You're welcome Kale! Maybe we can finally make this battle a little bit more fair!"
Also avoiding his opponents' blows as their only answer to his attempt to make the battle stop, Leets strikes back furiously #3. First with his longsword (27 to attack, critical -24 to confirm-, 18 damage) and then with his hooves (26 and 26 to hit, 5 and 4 damage).
Once the dog has finished the undead threatening Kenisha, Managarm runs behind #4, and begins to bark and growl to draw the Minotaur's attention.

what once looked like a dire situation for Leets now looks decidely better. Kale, Leets, and Brahmah inflict near mortal wounds on their opponents. the four minotaurs look at each other for a moment, then they all nod. the first one says. "We'll die here, but the others will catch him. In the end, we will have victory." then the four of them let out a loud roar and continue their attack. all four of them attack Leets again. the one wielding the scythe and shield slashes Leets across the chest for 9 pts of damage. the large scythe wielding one misses the paladin, though the one Leets just attacked brings his axe up high and brings it down on Leets shoulder(critical hit but no confirmed hit) for 13 pts of damage. the last one swings his two flails at Leets' head, but Leets is just able to avoid the flying heads of his weapons.
a little below them, Ceira flees from the zombie, but as she flees the monster smashes her in the back with his club(8 pts of damage). Flat-Top finishes off one of the zombies on him(the unarmored one) but he's still hard pressed by the two armored zombies, with one of their club's connecting with Flat-Top once again for 5 pts of damage. the heroic centaur looks like he's ready to fall. the one remaining unarmored zombie sees Taric and charges the minotaur. the power of the charge is able to penetrate Taric's shield and the minotaur is hit for 12 pts of damage.
Kale d20+6=20 d20+6=13 Wednesday January 15th, 2003 3:32:03 PM
"Thats right, your going to die." Kale growls as he continues his assault on green #2
Brahmah (flying still active) 37 of 59 d20+8=28 d20+8=22 2d4(2+2)+9=13 2d4(3+4)+9=16 d20+8=12 d20-2=0 d20-2=0 Wednesday January 15th, 2003 6:08:32 PM
Brahmah takes a 5-foot step toward #4, then continues his assault on #1. First attack hits AC 28 (confirming AC 22?) for 13 points of damage on #1 (if critted, total is 29). He then turns to #4 and hits AC 12, missing horribly. The warrior thinks to himself, 'Either their bluffing or we're ARE distracted as I thought earlier.' (Sense Motive of, ack! zero)
He then yells out. "You Taurs will die here and your master will be quite unhappy!!" (Bluff check, AARRGGH!!, another zero)
Kenisha (30/41, AC=22, Mage Armor) 3d4(3+1+4)+3=11 Wednesday January 15th, 2003 11:18:22 PM
Kenisha points her wand at Blue#4 and lets all three missiles fly at it for 11 HP of damage.
If #4 doesn't fall, she will take her five foot step so that she's flanking #4 with Flat-top. She'll call out to him, "Stike hard at this fell creature!"
If #4 does fall, she'll move so that she's just north of zombie #5, providing flank for Taric.
Flat-top ac 20 - hp 62/7 d20+16=28 d20+12=27 d8+4=9 d8+4=12 Thursday January 16th, 2003 12:36:53 AM
As darkness starts to engulf Flat-top, he swing with all his strenth hitting (blue #3) for 9hp of damage, then on the up swing he hit (blue #4)for 12hp of damage. Will power is the only thing thats holding him up, He spits into #4 face "You hit one of our healers!". Flat-top knees are starting to shake, he thinks to himself *Oh! Oh! one good gust of wind and I'll be down for the count.*
Taric (6/32 hp, ac23) d20+5=23 2d6(5+3)=8 Thursday January 16th, 2003 2:41:18 AM
Taric staggers from the heavy blow by the zombie but manages to keep his wits together. Taking a small step backwards he fires again at the foul creature.
OOC: taking a 5 ft step southwards and attack ac23 for 8 damage.
Ceira (13/21 hp, AC 16) d4+1=4 d4+1=3 d20+6=26 Thursday January 16th, 2003 3:44:52 AM
Ceira reels as she cringes from the pain. Being frail of body, she is again weary of getting too close to #5. But instead of leaving Taric, she will take her chances by taking one step away from #5 and unleashing a pair of Magic Missles for 7 damage.
(OOC: If #5 hits her with an Attack-of-Opportunity, then she will continue casting her spell with Concentration=26!!!)
Leets (25/58) & Managarm (21/27) (Blessed) d20+11=22 d8+7=10 d20+5=14 d6+4=6 Thursday January 16th, 2003 4:17:17 AM
"Since you've chosen, you'll die now and it is the gods who will judge your actions! Before falling, know that whoever comes after you, they will follow you in the grave, and you'll soon meet them in the other world if they are as stubborn as you!"
Seriously wounded, Leets furiously strikes back #3, calling the holy power of Domi to inflict the deserved punishment for such an unholy servant of evil forces (Attack 22 (19 wihtout the smite evil), damage 10 (3 without the smite evil)).
Managarm also provides some reinforcement, attacking #4 who seemed to ignore him (attack 14, probably not enough, damage 6 if enough).
