Quote from: The Scene:Swantville is a small farming town slightly off the path near the southern swamp-lands.
While passing through, you've all individually noticed a reward offered for a dragon that has been terrorizing the herdsman near the swamp. The rewards seemed particularly worthwhile for you, and you respond to the article.
Its turns out that 4 of you have responded to the reward, and the sherrif has sent you all out together to better your chances against the beast.
After a few very-slow days of searching around the swamp, you've finally stumbled upon a giant opening beneath a fallen tree, which must be the dragons lair.
The open is covered in muck and moss, but you can tell that after only a few feet, it becomes an actual cave
There is no light beyond the first few feet.
The cavern obviously slopes down, and the floor is slick with black swamp muck and moss.
The entire opening is 12 feet across and 7 feet high.
just list your memorized, or known spells, depending upon class. (update)

Quote from: for BartYour eyes have focused in on the pool in the back of the cavern.
Since you don't see any other movement in the room, you've assumed that the dragon must either be gone, or in that pool of sludge.
You can still see Flint waiting in the skylight form the tunnel opening.
You have initiative.[/quote]Your hear them walking deep into the opening, and eventually they stop.
You've heard no other sounds, and all seems clear outside.[/quote]i pull out my rope[/i]' or whatever you need that may be 'standard' equipment.
[ic=Saelin]I look around to the others, then whisper
"All right, which one of you knows where the dragon is - or can guess?"
While talking, I move to the front of the line, and ready an action to breath fire if we are attacked unexpected[/ic]
[ooc]Free Action: Talking

Quote from: for SaelinThe other two seem to be staring at the pool at the back of the cavern.
If a character talks to a character, then I'll let the other player respond IC.
Normally when not in combat, I will wait on a few people to post actions, then play it out.
[ic=Gilbert]
My book says the dragon may be in the pool of slime back there. But I'm not sticking my toes in there to find out. Ick![/ic]
[ooc]
Begins pulling out his rope to climb down to the cavern floor
[/ooc]
[ic=Gilbert]
Bart, are there any more openings out of the cave anywhere?[/ic]
BTW guys, I'll be at work until after 2:00 PM EST today, ,so don't do anything fun without me :)
[ic=Bart]I look around, then mutter
'No eggs... must be a bull. bulls is gamey.'
i'll check under the ledge to see if there's a dragon there (stealthily!). if not, i'll jump down (stealthily!). if there is, i'll... scream or something?.[/ic]
[ooc]Free Action: Talking
Move action: Check under the ledge.

[/ooc]
Quote from: for GilbertYou pull your rope from your bag and attach its hook to a solid rock jutting from the wall around you.
You hear a rather loud 'splat'! and you look down to see that Bart has fallen down from the ledge.
You quickly grab your rope tight, and start scrambling down to the cave floor.
When you're feet hit the ground, you immediately turn to help Bart up from the sludge.
You hear a 'splat' come from the opening.
Still nothing wrong outside the cave.
It sounds as if the assault has begun.[/quote]It's a bull, just as you feared.
Not only that, it's older and bigger than you anticipated.
You can feel the
fear trying to sneak into your bones as you stare into it's deep, empty eyes.
You shake off the stupor immediately, and quickly pull your way to your feet using Gilbert for counter-weight.[/quote]
You see it all.
The dragon pushing its' head above the surface, your companions hurriedly readying themselves.
You've been ready the whole time.[/quote]
Initiative!
Flint & Saelin are already prepared to act, and can act first.
Gilbert & Bart need to re-roll.
--------------
The Dragon:
size: medium
dragon init: [dice]1d20[/dice]
--------------[/blockquote]
If you roll to attack, go ahead and roll damage at the same time.
[ic=Saelin] "Prepare to die, beast!"
Saelin shouts, loud enough for Flint to hear, to ensure he can come to our aid. I throw a shortspear at it, and then jump down to the ground with the others.[/ic]
[ooc]Free Action: Talking
Standard Action: Throwing Spear
If this is a surprise round, ignore the jumping down, that will be my move action next round. If it is part of a regular round, that's my move action. I'm on the edge of the ledge, so it might be considered a free action to just hop down: if daggerhart agrees, treat it that way.
Attack: [dice]1d20+5[/dice] -1 if the dragon is more than 20 ft away, -2 if more than forty.
Damage: [dice]1d6+2[/dice]
Jump: [dice]1d20+5[/dice] (yay cross class skills)[/ooc]

[ic=Saelin] "I pray to every one of the eternally forsaken visages that you are merely making a moronic joke, Gnome. Do you really want to try and subdue a brute of that size? Do you even think we could?"[/ic]

Yay free actions[/ooc]
[ic=Bart]"Subdue it? I ain't into eatin' live food." *hock, spit*[/ic]
[ooc]
dammit dagg, i rolled init at the start specifically so i would NOT have to roll it again ;)
Init: [dice]1d20+2[/dice]
move action if i've got time:
draw bow while moving so that I'm not directly between firebreather and the dragon ;)
standard action if i've got even more time:
Longbow: [dice]1d20+6[/dice] (+1 if he's w/i 30 feet.)
damage: [dice]1d8+3[/dice] (+1 if he's w/i 30 feet.)
[/ooc]
Quote from: for FlintYou hear "Prepare to die! beast!" in a thick elven accent, echoing through the opening.
(don't forget that the ground is slick before charging in ;))
init(27) Saelin crys out and leaps from the ledge as hurls a shortspear at the dragon's protruding head.
The spear flies through the air and sinks deep into the beast's lower neck with a thud.
The dragon shreeches in pain, and sinks back underneath the muck surface.
init(26) Gilbert sidels towards the western wall of the cavern, removing himself from the line of fire.
-
just as Saelin lands perfectly beside him.
init(20)
Dragon leaps from the pool and lands just on the cavern floor (about 40 feet away from you all), it's wings slinging sludge all over the dark cavern.
It roars again, as it begins a dead charge towards Saelin...
[/quote] I stopped here because Gilbert still has an action to make (you've only moved).
Once he makes his move, I'll continue the round with the dragon's charge.[/ooc]
((Sorry guys, didn't realie I was holding things up))
[ic=Gilbert the Toe]
"Dammit, now I'll never be able to understand the methods of his flight, not to mention whether or not he uses tricuspid or valvular regurgitation to spew acid!!"
I hurl my knife at the dragon's head.
Attack: [dice]1d20+6[/dice]
[/ic]
[ooc]
I get dibs on his horns![/ooc]
[ic=Flint]
"I'm... er... Coming!" Takes a potion bottle out and gulps it down, then I run into the cave
Drinks Potion of Bull's Strength, 20 ft. move.
Bull's Strength potion last 5 minutes, 5th lvl caster.
[/ic]
[ooc]
I'm gonna slay the dragon, I'm gonna slay the dragon, hooray![/ooc]
Quote from: Round 1 of Combat cont...init(26) Gilbert gets to the west wall of the cave, and throws his knife straight for the charging dragon.
It bounces off a scale with a *tink* and falls to the floor.
init(20) Dragon races across the cavern towards Saelin, ending its charge by slashing with its powerful claws.
to Hit claw 1: [dice]1d20+11[/dice] : DMG : [dice]1d6+2[/dice]
to Hit claw 2: [dice]1d20+11[/dice] : DMG : [dice]1d6+2[/dice]
init(7) Bart backs away from the middle of the room, drawing his bow.
Takes quick aim and lets an arrow loose at the beast.
Only to have it fly far right, and *clank against the cave wall.
init(7) Flint slides to a stop on the ledge above the rest of you.
Crushes an empty potion bottle in his right hand, as he surveys the battle.
----- END Round 1-----
I have a good idea.
from now on, could you post your current HP after your character name in the 'in character' box.
[ic=Name / HP]like so[/ic][/ooc]

QuoteReflex Save: [dice]1d20+7[/dice]
The stream of fire hits the dragon square in it's face.
The dragon reels back in pain, snapping it's powerful jaws at the fire.
[ic=Gilbert the Toe / 17]
"Damn! Durned thing would sure have bit the dust if my knife had hit him!"
I pull my caltrops and toss them across the floor in front of the dragon, then begin circling around to flank him.

Quote from: Round 2 of Combat cont...Gilbert pulls a handful of caltrops from his bag and tosses them directly inbetween Saelin and the Dragon, while trying to manuever behind the beast.
The Dragon is trying to shake the flame from it's face.
After a short moment it levels it's gaze back on Saelin, and again moves forward to strike.
... it's front paws landing square on the caltrops.
Caltrop to hit: [dice]1d20[/dice] (dmg 1, 1/2 movement)
The sharp spikes sink deeply into the beast's claws, and it stumbles around for a second, before pulling back it's head, and shooting a stream of a green-hissing acid at Saelin.
(reflex DC 17) DMG [dice]6d4[/dice]
I need a reflex save from Saelin for half-damage. (also, please make any resistance adjustments you need, and post the results).

Quote from: Round 4 of combatinit(27) - Saelin spans the room, and begins climbing the rope behind Gilbert.
init(26) - Gilbert climbs the rest of way up, onto the ledge, and moves into position (5ft), now faced with the dragon's tail whipping back and forth.
He stabs, but the dragon's hide continues to reflect his blows.
Saelin, finishes climbing the rope, onto the ledge.
init(20) - Dragon takes a sharp intake fo breath, and shoots stream of hissing green liquid at Flint.
DC 17 , Relflex save for half-dmg. : DMG : [dice]6d4[/dice]
init(7) - Bart fires arrows towards the beast's back.
Arrows stream by Saelin and Gilbert, one sinking deep into the dragon's back. The other bouncing off its thick scales.
init (7) - Flint's Turn
hope this helps, this is a text representation of the battle.

These dice rollers need some work... The edits are messing with their rolls...[/ooc]
for the time-being, dont edit anything.
just say 'disregard last roll' and roll again, in a new post.
that will keep them from going crazy.
damned if i'm not gonna start taking cover penalties.
@nat20: backing up may NOT have been the best idea. you're kinda isolated, there, bud :)
also @nat20 i know. fixing them is going to break every roll made so far, so i'm waiting for a lull--and some free time :)
[ooc]I think it's my post. Either way: is their a way I could hit the dragon at an angle that wouldn't have Gilbert or Flint in the way? IE: If I were to enter Gilber's square, could I breath down at the dragon so the angle prevents either Flint or Gilbert from being roasted with it?
Oh, and for now, are we using the [test] tags, or normal dice tags?[/ooc]
dice. test is literally a test tag. a month from now it may deal with images or something. come the update, dice will be changed to act like test.
die update.
dragon breathed for 8 (???) damage,
nat rolled:
fort 7
attack 22
damage 12
heal 5

Not sure where daggerhart's been, I'll see if I can round him up to get things moving today.

(Grapple attempt) [dice]1d20+11[/dice]
Gilbert gets an AoO. (to hit AC 19) --- even if I miss, you get the Aoo
if I miss: [spoiler]Attck 2 (Grapple attempt) [dice]1d20+11[/dice]
if Gilbert has 'improve attack of op', or whatever, then you get another aoo.[/spoiler]
We'll continue, once the grapple has been solved. :D[/ooc]
[ic=Gilbert the Toe / 17]
Ha! You WORM! You can't hit me![/ic]

Now, what do I need to do about this grapple check? I"m absolutely no good at grapples. What kind of check do I make to oppose?[/ooc]
[ooc]
Oh, and +2 attack for flanking still? If so, that's 19, a hit[/ooc]

http://www.thecbg.org/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?546
at the stage we're at, dragon's first attempt failed cuz of AoO hit, but second melee touch attack hit, so both have to do opposed grapple checks?
I hate grapple...
this is what im using :)
(http://www.raelifin.com/picture_library/random/Grapple.jpg)
[ic=Dragon ]
Grapple: [dice]1d20+12[/dice][/ic]
So it's grapple fails; I should be good now.
EDIT: My touch AC is 15 (+4 Dex, +1 Size)
grapple fails.
next attack.
[ooc]Hate to do this, but grapple isn't over yet.
Ishy, the second grapple hit, and you didn't get an AoO due to lack of second AoO. You need to make a grapple check to beat the Dragon's grapple check result of 14. Alternatively, since you were grapple, I'm pretty sure you can make an escape artist attempt.
Sorry for nit-pickyness, I played a rogue who paired up with a grappling half-dragon for uber sneak attack once and know the grapple rules pretty well.[/ooc]

[ooc]
The grapple didn't pass, since my touch AC is 15, and the dragon rolled 14 twice ... and I don't think the dragon has Improved Grapple (unless daggerhart says so), so I should get an AoO as well, according to that diagram up above.[/ooc]
[ooc]That 14 was to grapple you. His second touch attack, made in the inital grapple post, (it's in the Spoiler) was a 21: more than enough.
And you only get one AoO a round, unless you have improved AoO.[/quote]
[ooc]
Okay, I think this is where we are in the grapple thing.
The Dragon missed Gilbert with it's first grapple check (it rolled a 14 versus my touch AC of 15).
I rolled an AoO and presumably hit (Attack roll = 19 versus Dragon AC 19).
The dragon made a second attack roll and hit (rolled 21 versus my touch AC 15, or regular AC 16, I honestly don't know what he was rolling against there, was it a regular attack?)
Which means I need to roll an opposed grapple check now, I believe.
So....
Opposed Grapple Check(Attack + STR MOD - SIZE MOD) Versus the Dragon's 14:
[dice]1d20+2-4[/dice]
Edit: I failed, so the dragon has Gilbert in its claws now.... is that all correct?
Edit#2: And that AoO I made above that hit was the only one I've made this round; so why can't I take it?
[/ooc]
[ooc]You get it right, you are now held by the dragon.
I don't get your second question: you made the AoO, it hit, the dragon took damage. That was for the first grapple attempt. Then their was the second one, and you couldn't make an AoO because you already had.
Hope that helps clear things up.[/ooc]
Guess we're done here... :(
So much for my first dragon slaying...
