Erithmu 05-03-07, 07:29 PM	Lightwolf looked at the map that he had gotten from Torel. The druid had enough time to construct one from the scrying pool. With a quick scan of the map he saw the next way point on this journey. Rolling the map back up he continued along the road towards what he was told was a power center for natural divine energy. None of it made any real sense, but then again he was helping the Living Tree. Moments after walking up the short slope he heard an arrow whip past him and stick into a tree. Turning to look at his attacker he saw an orc equiped with leather armor, a bow and a big sword on his back. Standing next to him was a half blooded orc with a wolf next to him. It was the half blood that spoke I think you might want to give us your money.
Yitzi 05-03-07, 08:51 PM	Can I have a map? Also, do I get to go now, or was that arrow a surprise round? Also, what is the half-orc wearing?
Erithmu 05-08-07, 12:35 AM	Lightwolf drew his weapons in defense and as he did so everything started to move into action. The orc was quick in drawing a second arrow that hit Lightwolf with a graze. The halfblood called fire to his hand and began to bark orders to his pet. Init Orc - Atk 20 vs FF 3 dmg Half - Casts a spell flame comes to hand Lightwolf - ???

Yitzi 05-08-07, 08:23 AM	Lightwolf draws his bow while moving to take cover behind the nearest tree, and shoots at the wolf. "I'll make you a deal. I'm on an important mission to serve nature, so if you run now, I won't chase you to kill you." draw&move to 15O, shoot (single shot) at wolf. Declare dodge vs half-orc.
Erithmu 05-08-07, 10:34 AM	Lightwolf ducks behind some cover, and finds his target with an arrow, however the wolf closes quickly and the orc archer is moving around the tree on the north side. The halfblood moves to get a better view.

Yitzi 05-08-07, 11:15 AM	Lightwolf taps his tattoo of skate and runs southwest to 19H. I know it's an AoO from the wolf, but I don't see much alternative. I'm declaring dodge against the wolf before my move, and then back to the half-orc after the wolf makes its AoO.
Erithmu 05-08-07, 07:32 PM	Lightwolf gets some speed on his legs and dodges one wolf bite but the creature closes quickly and gets a hold of his legs and almost manages to bring Lightwolf to the ground.

Yitzi 05-08-07, 08:02 PM	My plan at the moment is to use my now-superior speed to give me distance to work with. So I will need the map extended to the west some, but you can remove the northern and eastern parts if it makes it easier. Lightwolf beats a wary retreat to the west withdraw (90') to the west, I want cover from the half-orc (and from the others, if possible, so I can make a hide check), that tree to the west looks good.
Erithmu 05-09-07, 02:35 PM	Relative Speeds: Wolf: 50 Lightwolf: 45 Orc: 40 Half: 30 You can run, but I'm going to go mapless at that point. If you withdraw you will be withdrawing endlessly since the wolf will always base you and thus negate your ability to hide.
Yitzi 05-09-07, 02:46 PM	And here I thought it was 40 for the wolf. So much for that plan. So instead I will: Lightwolf adjusts his position southwest and fires two shots at the wolf 5' to 22H and rapid shot at the wolf. If the first one drops it, the other one goes for the orc.
Erithmu 05-09-07, 03:01 PM	Tired of being the prey Lightwolf steps back from the wolf and orc and puts an arrow into the wolf finishing off the creature. Turning to the Orc he releases an arrow point blank that sticks in his neck, the orc drops his sword and falls. A ball of fire passes in front of him as he turns to see the half orc gathering another ball of fire. Two more arrows finish the half orc off. Round 3: Orc Follows after Lightwolf and bases (double move) Half - moves around the tree Lightwolf - 5ft step + Rapid (atks: 14,20! vs wolf 12 dmg Confirm vs Orc: 19 dmg 21) Round 4: Half flings fire at Lightwolf (atk: 1!) Lightwolf Rapid: (18,20 dmg: 23) Lightwolf 20/30 (D: Half) Orc xx-dead Half xx-23 (buff 1) Wolf xx-dead
Yitzi 05-09-07, 03:30 PM	And just in time to stay on schedule too! What's my loot? Lightwolf searches the corpses and continues walking, this time with his bow in hand.
Yitzi 05-10-07, 05:06 PM	When are we getting started on encounter #2?
Erithmu 05-11-07, 12:03 PM	Checking the corpses Lightwolf found that most of his gear was superior to the equipment that the orcs carried. Continuing on he stopped by a drop point for the Living Tree, and healed his wounds. Finishing that he continued on looking at his map. About an hour later he came upon a split in the road that was not on the map. Glancing at the map there wasn't another land mark for another portion of the day. Glancing up he took a second look down the left path and saw movement. A quick look to the right indicated another something in that direction. Stowing the map he drew his bow and saw his aggressors. To large monkey like creatures came running down each of the paths. Each on of them is about ... 80ft off, it is mostly open area. Init: Lightwolf Ape 1 Ape 2
Yitzi 05-11-07, 01:56 PM	Lightwolf lets off two shots at the nearest ape, movig a bit back as he does so. rapid shot at nearest, then 5' away from both of them (or, if only one remains, that one). Dodge vs. nearest still alive. This is assuming I can't reach cover, if I can, show me the map and I'll adjust.
Erithmu 05-11-07, 06:13 PM	Lightwolf rips off 4 arrows before the apes can close, but he has taken one down and now the other is looming over him with one arrow sticking out of him. Round 1: Lightwolf Rapid: 26,23 dmg 24 + step Ape 1 double moves Ape 2 double moves Round 2: Lightwolf Rapid: 21,17 dmg 8, 10 Ape 2 double moves and bases Currently based (ape has 10ft reach) Lightwolf 30/30 Ape 2 xx-10
Yitzi 05-12-07, 10:40 PM	Is he 10' away or 5' away?
Erithmu 05-13-07, 12:09 AM	Is he 10' away or 5' away? Based means that he is 0ft away. Based: Base to Base contact, commonly used in DnD minis, or older games such as Warhammer line of games.
Yitzi 05-13-07, 12:14 AM	Well, then I'll just 5' away and rapid shot him. I know it's an AoO, no help for that. I'd intended to use a tattoo of skate when they got closer to avoid this situation, but since you had Lightwolf rapid shot that second round as well... Also, I don't see why he would base instead of just attacking from maximum range. It's not as if an animal has the intelligence to try to avoid me 5' stepping out of range.
Erithmu 05-13-07, 09:46 AM	Well, then I'll just 5' away and rapid shot him. I know it's an AoO, no help for that.

Also, I don't see why he would base instead of just attacking from maximum range. It's not as if an animal has the intelligence to try to avoid me 5' stepping out of range.My bad. I had Lightwolf move to cover to prevent charging. Lightwolf ducks under a claw swipe and unloads two more arrows into the creature felling it. Rnd 3 Lightwolf - Step and Rapid ... ... AoO (1!) ... atks: 20,24 dmg 22
Yitzi 05-13-07, 10:30 AM	What's the ape do now?
Erithmu 05-13-07, 10:31 AM	Bleeds on the ground? To Fell: to defeat
Yitzi 05-13-07, 10:41 AM	Sorry, didn't see that. Well, this is week 3 of the cycle, so Lightwolf will buy the following scrolls, all at CL 1: protection from goodX1, prot from lawX1, prot from chaosX1, prot from evilX1, ray of enfeeblementX1, shieldX2, expeditious retreatX2, sleepX1, true strikeX1. That's 11 scrolls for 275 gp, I can't use any of them yet, but I can own them (current CL 0+2<1) and after this quest is over (if I complete it), I'll have enough XP to go up to level 5, which seems like a good time to take sorceror.
Yitzi 05-15-07, 10:24 AM	I'm also buying a spell component pouch. In order to stay within light encumbrance, I'm dropping my staff, hopefully I won't encounter any skeletons this 3FC.
Erithmu 05-15-07, 12:19 PM	Lightwolf makes it through the rest of the day without incident. Finding one of the old TLT rest points he finds an unkept bed and some basic supplies. The bed does well enough to sleep in, and he rummages through the supplies finding a few things of interest which he stows in his pack. He sleeps well. Any arrow reloading?
Yitzi 05-15-07, 06:50 PM	Wait, I can make use of "At home" items? If so, I'll keep my staff and instead stash 2 arrows, which, in addition to the 11 spent, brings me down to exactly 50 lbs. If I can't use "At home" items, I'll buy 20 arrows-due to dropping my staff and having used 11, I can carry them. And please let me know which of the 2 it is.

If I can't use "At home" items, I'll buy 20 arrows-due to dropping my staff and having used 11, I can carry them. And please let me know which of the 2 it is.I honestly don't know I think there are two schools of thought on this.
Yitzi 05-15-07, 07:01 PM	Well, as the QL, it's your decision. Chances are it won't matter, but you have to decide (unless you'd rather ask around in the tavern)
Erithmu 05-15-07, 07:12 PM	Oh I'm sorry I thought you were talking in general. If your just doing it for the quest go for it just tell me what you want. I have the monster rolled, but I can't 'start' till after guild reactions are posted.
Yitzi 05-15-07, 08:52 PM	I would rather be able to store the 2 arrows.
Erithmu 05-21-07, 09:31 PM	Packing for the morning he Lightwolf left some of his equipment stowed with a note for the runners of TLT to take some of his equipment back to the Mountain Refuge. Traveling further upon the path toward where Torel stated the circle should be he started to notice signs of what must have been markers. A series of stones were placed in the ground with what looked like odd symbols. He had seen them back at the Mountain refuge on Torel and Aerryl's doors. He assumed that it was druidic and let his mind be at ease. Traveling further down the path trees started to take the form of what might have been support structures for a village. It was at this moment that Lightwolf heard a chittering sound and the sound of something moving toward him slowly, but with some determination. It then burst out of the woods and turned to face him and come at him. A very large bug. Encounter distance: 90ft Round 1 Lightwolf - ??? Bug - ???
Yitzi 05-21-07, 09:59 PM	Lightwolf shoots off two arrows at the thing while moving back a bit. Well, of course, my first round I'm rapid shotting it and moving back 5'. After that, it depends on its speed (Lightwolf can see how far it moves). Dodge is always vs the bug. If it is less than 30' (which, if you used the random generator and if "bug" means vermin and not bug-like magical beast, is certain, as the giant stag beetle, with 20', is the only such choice), Lightwolf will just keep moving as needed to stay out of its grasp (run if that will take me farther), and rapid shot+5' away if not. If running will not increase the distance by more than 60' (due to obstacles), single move and single shot instead (unless a double move is needed to avoid it closing). If running will increase the distance by more than 60', do so if a 5' won't prevent the bug from closing next turn. If it is 30' or 35', activate skate, and apply as above (but more than 90' to run instead of 60') until skate runs out, at which point apply If it is 40' or above (meaning you didn't use the random roller), just rapid shot+5' (or 5'+rapid shot if needed to avoid AoO). If it uses a special ability (even if I make the saving throw or it misses) or another enemy shows up, let me know, and if it's not too late I'll repost, otherwise it'll have to be held over.

If a full run is 80' that means his speed is 20', so I'll just make sure to keep distance. He can run, so can I, and at 1.5X the speed. That will give me a rapid shot every third round on average in order to prevent closing, so that means 2 shots for every 2 rounds of running, hopefully 12 shots will be enough and I won't have to make a CON check to keep running. So my tactics, unless he comes up with something new, are to rapid shot+5' away if that will prevent him closing enough to attack, run away if not. Any obstacles should hamper it as much as they do me (more, as it's large).
Erithmu 05-22-07, 01:54 PM	Lightwolf plays a quick game of cat and mouse as the beetle simply rushes after him but never can catch up. A few arrows later and Lightwolf defeats the creature. Pulling out his map he looks at where the circle should be and finds it. What you said ... but I did roll the stuff.
Yitzi 05-22-07, 02:31 PM	Is that it? Edit: Since this is up in the Questlog, I assume it is, so I'm adjusting Lightwolf's sheet
Erithmu 05-22-07, 05:01 PM	Is that it? Edit: Since this is up in the Questlog, I assume it is, so I'm adjusting Lightwolf's sheet yea ... The last few weeks have been a little nutty, so the RP of my quests have been off quite a bit. I have a paper due tomorrow that demands my attention, so I have been speed rolling alot of stuff.
