Ice Lake Round 11 ~ The Party Makes Hay


The battle rages on.  The creatures are quite obviously dumb; they continue to swing at you, stumbling on the ice, but the emptiness of their eyes is disturbing and the ghastly wailing they give has begun to wreak upon your nerves.

However, as each one is destroyed, they seem to give a sound that is ... like relief.  As if they are as glad to give up the fight as you would be.

The larvae that enter into 1822 and 1922 move to attack Engelhart, while Mikael is forced to defend himself against the creature in 1924, as Lothar's attentions are placed elsewhere.

Two creatures continue to attack Embla.  The larva in 1623 misses with a 6.  The larva in 1722 hits with a natural 20, which is double-damage after a second die is rolled.  Thankfully, it causes only 6 damage, which doesn't stun Embla.

Four creatures attack Engelhart, all affected by the curse spell.  1823 misses with a modified 15 (would have hit if not for the curse), while 1922 misses with a modified 5.  2023 misses with an Un-1, an unnatural 1, while 2024 misses with a natural 1.  All around, a poor performance.

The larva on Mikael misses with a 3.

Lothar is hit with a 14 by the larva in 1925, causing 5 damage.  Lothar was at 26 before the hit, so he isn't stunned.  The larva in 1826 misses with a 5.

And finally, three creatures attack Rob.  1624 hits him with a 16, causing 5 damage.  Three of this is soaked up by the armor, which falls away, and two by the druid.  Those 2 are not enough to stun.  The second creature in 1625 hits with a 15, causing 3 damage.  That isn't enough to stun, either.  And finally, the creature in 1725 misses with a 10.

The remaining creatures continue to circle in.

Following the party's actions, the positions stand as follows:


And the experience so far:

I still have some fight in me yet

Embla Strand said...

I swing at 1823 again.

18 on the die will hit AC -1 for 10 damage.

That destroys it, Mikael.

Lothar's blow cuts to 1925 instead, as Mikael was one minute faster. That will also destroy.

Lothar Svensson said...

I'll take it. Whoo, we're on a roll now!

Engelhart Askjellson said...
