TelinArtho 02-02-06, 12:19 AM	[Introduction] As you approach the Warfare Alliance, the metal-man known as Gwar can be seen running down the street. Hey You! Stop! However, he is simply too slow. A group of four seem to be running away from the Warfare Alliance - each heading down a different path. You said you wanted to treat these four as "one" - so I'll do my best to refer to "you" rather than a particular one. Assign one to go down each path individually.
NiQil 02-02-06, 03:56 AM	With a brief glance at each other, the decision was made. This was the creature they had ventured to see. Gwar, the leader of the guild that would be used as their base of operations while they infiltrated Gladius. Being surrounded by hardened warriors who thought you were friends with them and would be loyal was always a good way to begin. Loyalty could be used. At the right moment, it would be put to very good use.... As one, the dwarves who only referred to themselves as The Four Horsemen (having long ago given up keeping identities that conformed to the will of man), broke into a chase of the four beings that seemed to be fleeing from Gwar. With speed that seemed impossible for their size, they began the hunt all of the same mind. If these four had wronged Gwar or The Warfare Alliance in some way, then the judgement of the four would help gain them entrance and buy the loyalty they sought. Bows whipped out from leather cases across the back of the four, and each began targeting a different adversary as they sprinted after them. The one on the middle left, known now only as Pestilence, aimed at one of the fleeing persons that was also to the middle.
TelinArtho 02-02-06, 02:29 PM	Pestilence takes aim against one of the fleeing individuals and his arrow strikes (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=353670) the target in the back - forcing him to stagger slightly. The elf who was hit turns to look over his shoulder and then moves inside a building nearby and closes the door. The building appears to be a silversmith's market. The building is located 50ft from you and the door is 55ft away. There is a single large window in the front to view inside, but that is 65ft away. There are also narrow alleys down each side of the building.
NiQil 02-02-06, 04:01 PM	Pestilence grins in delight at his shot, but his smile quickly disappears when the door to the building closes. He stows his bow while moving up to the door and drawing his waraxe. Don't forget about my class damage bonus vs elves. I am going to take a move action to stow my bow and then draw my axe while advancing 40 ft.
TelinArtho 02-03-06, 12:05 PM	Noted on the extra damage - 11 not 9. Standing before the door of the silversmith's shop, Pestilence hears someone yelling inside. Let me pass! Followed by a muffled thump.
NiQil 02-03-06, 12:33 PM	I will test the door to see if it is locked...if not I will open the door and advance inside, readying to attack the elf if within melee range. If the door is locked, I will attempt to break (sunder) the door with my waraxe.
TelinArtho 02-03-06, 01:01 PM	The door opens easily (more than easily - since I treated it as a free action to your opponent...) - and within, Pestilence can see the elf behind the counter, maneuvering to get to a door to lead into the back room. The room is about 20 deep x 30 wide. Along the backside is a counter that blocks movement except for an entry point on the left hand side. The counter is 4ft high and takes up a 5ft square that you can't move directly into (unless you climb/jump on top of it) - and provides your opponent with cover at the moment - he is 30ft directly in front of you. If you choose to go around the counter, that would be 50ft of movement to get to him - your choice.
NiQil 02-03-06, 01:09 PM	Pestilence, seeing the fleeing elf behind the counter, giggles maniacally. "Come out and play, little elf. Your doom awaits." He then advances around the counter, dragging his waraxe along the floor behind him, creating a sound like fingernails on a chalkboard. Double move around the counter to base him.
TelinArtho 02-05-06, 10:04 PM	The elf does not look the least bit intimidated by the dwarf, and brandishing a rapier from his belt, he whips (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=356512) it towards Pestilence. Pestilence narrowly avoids the blade with his buckler and sneers at the elf some more.
NiQil 02-05-06, 10:15 PM	From here it will be melee attacks with the waraxe unless either the elf breaks contact or I fall below half my hp. I'll reassess from there if either of those happen, but otherwise feel free to play it out in melee.
TelinArtho 02-07-06, 12:07 PM	Pestillence brings down his axe on the opponent, killing (http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=358244) him instantly. Nice to bring him down - would've had another crit to confirm if you hadn't...
NiQil 02-07-06, 12:21 PM	Pestilence, snarling at the little elf, hews his head from his body with another swing of the axe, and then rips the elf's shirt off and wraps his head inside. He stows his equipment and drags his new bundle behind him as he returns to his fellow Horsemen. You and your crazy criticals...it's uncanny LOL.
