Gladiator Tournament II - Grand Melee

[Black Plauge]

To those of you just coming into the arena, I'd like to welcome you to Duke Soloth's Gladiator Tournament, and compliment you on your sense of timing.

Compliment? They've already missed some of the most spectacular man vs. beast qualifying matches that we've ever held here. Some 28 competitors faced off against a similar number of specially raised dire wolves.

Yes, blood and gore abounded there and good fun was had by all, but if you were going to have to miss something, I'd say that those qualifying matches would have been it. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that if you were only going to make one event today, this would be the match to see.

Well, I suppose. We are about to see the most experienced gladiators take to the arena in a grand melee that will help the judges decide the seeding for the matches over the course of the next few days.

This is going to be quite a sight. Fifteen professional gladiators have made it here to the arena today. We have halflings, humans, elves, a dwarf, and even a big smoking cloud.

Smoking cloud? Aren't we more interested in the gladiator inside of it?

Ah, ah, ah! Don't you go spoiling the suprise. Moniker has gone to great lengths to keep his identity as much under wraps as possible. He even petitioned Duke Soloth himself to have a judge come out to the house where he is staying to verify his equipment and then accompany him back to the arena in an enclosed carraige.

That's an awful lot of effort for just some anomynity. I hope Moniker makes it worth Duke Soloth's while.

Well, what do you say we find out and get things started?

Let's. Gladiators, introduce yourselves to the crowd!

All characters have until 9:00am on Tuesday to post their Round 1 actions. These actions are supposed to be for showmanship.

[Benicus]

"Ah," Achiliene says flourshing his sword about him, "The public loves me!" He begins to floush his weapon in the traditional style of the gladiator's.

[OOC: Perform Weapon Drill Check +30]

[generaljimX]

"Too crowded over here, Thornbeak," Charmaine says. "Lets go." With that, she uses her extrodanary riding skills to not only take a more advantages position, but to show off to the crowd as well.

[OOC: Direct Thornbeak to move to N/O 23/24, landing on top of platform. Use Ride check(+39 modifier) to try and impress the crowd while we move.]

[Lune]

None would know what Moniker was sensing inside the billowing dark cloud. His ears twitched noting the large beast take flight near him and the human who thus far is simply standing near where it took off from. To another side another strange being moves about. Another human to his south touches the ground softly. And within his cloud are a dwarf and an elf. Moniker grins, "I be the CLOUD OF DEATH! Fear me for ye shall not see your imminent doom." With a low rumble of a growl trailing his words he fades into silence.

Moniker will have Death's Grip in hand.
Hide 15, Move Silently 23

Free actions:
Quick Reconnoiter to Spot and Listen to notice anyone out of blindsight radius.
Scent to notice anyone outside of blindsight radius.
Setting power attack for this round to 5.

Actions:
Begin studying the elf that is standing near him (Del Holimion).
Ready an action to move if Del attempts to move outside of radius of smoke cloud and away from his blindsight radius.

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh raises his voice in a loud chant and begins to jumping up and down, slowly working his way south east. His fist strikes rythmically against his chain armor as he pumps himself up for the fight at hand.
"The pack is stronger than the one
when fighting out under the sun.
One will stay, the rest will go.
The Towering Inferno!"
As he finishes his chant, several likenesses appear mimicking his movements.
He moves a little way to an defensible area, not to near any of the other gladiators.

OOC: Cast mirror image. Move to I32, or similar position that is at least 5 feet away from any other gladiator's reach (15 feet for gladiators with reach, 10 feet for others). He will not take any attacks of opportunity during the showmanship round. Any attack of opportunity except against the giants/goliaths during the first real combat round will be trip attempt with the follow up attack for damage. Attack of opportunity against the giants will be for damage. Power attack for 4. Designate Brunhilda as dodge target. Spiked chain in hand with merciful activated.

[Darius]

"I am FING FANG FOOM!" the monk yells, though compared to some of his fellow gladiators, it is most likely a paltry thing. He jumps up in the air as he executes a spinning kick followed by a defensive kata meant to highlight his defensive skills.

[OOC: Jump to C29 (Jump+37); Perform Weapon Drill +26]

[Chris Chandler]

Stading amongst his fellow competitors, Elgin looks toward the large crowd and shouts -

"PREPARE YOURSELVES!"

He moves with an easy gait through the press of rubble more toward. As he steps into position his hands are a flurry of motion. He spins his halberd in blinding fashion. It travels unbelievably quick from one hand to another, behind his back, over his head, each motion fluid and deadly. There is no superfluous motion - this display could very well be an attack.

The last steps to his position find Elgin kicking up the dust around himself in a furious manner, ending his display with a furious overhead chop -

"KIAI!"

He then stands motionless, awaiting his opponents.

[move to H30, weapon display +26]

[Noocytx]

"Another free for all, I'm sure teams will be formed" UrEssel whispers to herself. Having lived and fought for herself for so long, she moves to a more strategic location and begins to go through with some pracitce of her dagger waving it to and fro in front of her with her years of experience shown before the fight begins.

"Let it begin" She says loud enough that only some of the audience can hear her, not willing to scream and show off like some of the other gladiators.


OOC: Move to E7, Perform (Weapon Drill) check +28

[Noocytx]

"Ah Ha, what a fine day to teach everyone the lessons of a battle. I hope everyone is prepared. You shall learn the aspects of magic and fists, the power that it holds."

James takes a look around, trying to size up the competition to see what would help him best at this point. "Hmm, let's see if you can fight what you can't see" With that statement, magic fist waves his hands in a complicated pattern, and disappears from the audiences sight.


OOC: Cast Greater Invisibility

Dependents: Wish to move 10 ft away from other gladiator.
If before Coravel, but after Groden, and Groden hasn't shifted, then move 10 ft from Groden.
Otherwise, move to J7.

[Boomlaor]

Gork looks around the arena, taking stock of his situation. With much of one end of the arena obscured by smoke, he sets off in the other direction, prefering to begin with fewer unknown variables. With a series of grunts at his companion, he sets off toward the eastern group of gladiators, and warms up with his trusty mancatcher, allowing its familiar weight to guide his movements.

[ooc free action to command peanut to heel, move to I-30 (if higher initiative than Rakesh) or to I-28 (if lower initiative than Rakesh), free action to command peanut to perform, standard action to perform weapon drill (+22). Peanut moves to G/H-27/28, performs tricks (circumstance bonus to weapon drill?). In hand: mancatcher]

[Boomlaor]

Brunhilda smiles as she walks into the arena, relishing the catcalls some of the more drunken spectators shower down on her. She says loudly, in a very husky voice, "Is it hot out here, or is that just me?" She then licks her finger and touches it to her scantily clad, and somewhat hairy, thigh, making a sizzling sound with her mouth. As she does so, she bursts into flames, then leaps onto a nearby platform, twirling as she does so to fan the flames even higher.

[ooc: Free action to talk, move action to activate nimbus, move action to jump(+31) onto the platform at L-32, jumping to impress the crowd. In hand: magic rock in right hand and nonmagic rock in left]

[Lord Twig]

Yarden grimaces at the smoke and stalks out into the clear. "Supposed to show off and and Marvin or Marian or Whatever-His-Name-Is is sitting in a big stinking cloud!"

He jogs around a wall and breaks into a Dwarven weapon drill. With his shield held high, the blade of his over-large axe seems to appear around the edges, slicing at an imaginary opponent.

OOC: Yarden moves to L20 and uses Perform: Weapon Drill (+20).

Note: Yarden is basically just trying to get his back to a wall and size up the situation before engaging an opponent. does not have his tower shield with him for this combat.

[Lord Twig]

Finding himself on the edge of Moniker's smoke, Del heads towards clean air. As he steps out he quickly spots Fu and whistles for his friend. His quick strides take him towards one of the raised platforms, leaping on top of it with the barest of effort. He turns just in time to see the smoke closing in after him.

"Going to deny me the use of my bow are we?" Del scowls, then quickly chants and brings about one of his most useful spells. A wide grin spreads across his face as his swords appear in his hands as if by magic. He turns to face directly at his incoming foe.

OOC: Del moves to I-18, then D-18, jumping onto the platform (Jump +20). Whistles for Fu (Trick: Come) as a Free Action. Casts Embrace the Wild for the senses of a Porpoise, including Listen, Spot and Blind Sight 120'. Quick draw Long sword and Short sword.

Fu will delay (if necessary) until he receives a command from Del. Then he will move to E-36, D-35, D-32, E-31, jump onto the platform at E29 (Jump +16), continue to E-20, then D-19.

Note: Del wants to meet up with Fu and find some high ground, avoiding opponents for now. With Moniker so close he will make sure to cast his spell so that he isn't blind in the cloud.

[Tashalar]

The Spiker stands unmoving as the Grand Mêlée is proclaimed and the introductory words are said. A sneer shows on his face at one point though. Humans, halflings, elves and a dwarf... they certainly make a point of leaving me out every time...

Over the years the announcers had made it a habit to ignore the Spiker whom the crowd had dubbed "Spikey" from the very start.

Let's get on with this...

"Spikey" raises both his hands in salute to the crowd quickly turning every way. Suddenly his dark grey skin turns even darker, almost black, as very short black fur grows on him. May the panther grant me strength...

While greeting the crowd, "Spikey" had a good look around at the other contestants and their location. Abruptly he turns and jogs towards the other end of the arena and in one fluid motion suddenly takes to the air. One foot outstreched as if doing a flying kick he flies for a good 50' before landing on the ground once more. There he raises his hands again to greet the other half of the crowd once more without saying a single word.

(OOC: activate Boots of Speed as a free action, manifest Animal Affinity augmented to give a +4 enhancement bonus to STR and DEX (panther), single step to F13 and then get running start to F17 and jump (to impress crowd) from F17 to F27 (Jump +56) - jumping over the ape if it hasn't moved away until then)

Edit: 8 PPs spent

[Tashalar]

Coravel Auvrearretyn entered the arena at a leisurely pace, rapier in hand and clad in his usual resplendent blue and silver fighting outfit, to proceed to his starting area. All of them at once... let's see if any of them show capable of touching me...

Head held high he waits for the other brutes to shout there crude names before indicating a bow to the nearest audience. As if the crowd can hear there feeble cries, Coravel thinks disdainfully before he suddenly jumps into motion. Coravel erupts into a flurry of cartwheels, feints, and flips left and right before he abruptly ceases moving and again indicates a bow to the audience while pointing to the ground to the right with his rapier and to the ground to the left with his left hand. He is standing right at the top of a big U for 'Untouchable' facing west.

(OOC: activate Boots of Speed as a free action, tumble I6-I7-H7 (tumble +28) as part of the move action with a combined perform weapon drill (+27) both to impress the crowd - if this combined maneuver is not possible mechanically, he'd just do his acrobatics and then follow up with a perform weapon drill during which he scrapes the 'U' into the sand)

Edit: Due to the rules of the grand mêlée, Coravel has his non-magical rapier in hand.

Achiliene tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 36 vs. DC 35. Success. Crowd attitude towards Achiliene improves 2 steps.

UrEssel moves and tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 47 vs. DC 35. Success. Crowd attitude towards UrEssel improves 2 steps.

Moniker takes in his surroundings. Spot is ineffective outside blindsight range and scent has a maximum range of 30 ft (there are no winds) so neither provide any more information than his blindsight. Listen 30. Moniker is able to determine the general direction of all competitors except, The Towering Inferno, Elgin, Gork, and Fu, for whom there are sufficient barriers to mask their positions.
Moniker begins studying Del and readies an action.

Fu delays for orders from Del.

James casts greater invisibility and moves.

Thornbeak delays for orders from Charmaine.

Grindle delays for orders from Elgin. Note: I previously forgot to place Grindle on the map. This has been corrected. Grindle is currently in M27.

Coravel activates his Boots of Speed.
Coravel does a combined tumbling and weapon drill to impress the crowd. Perform (weapon drill) is automatic vs. DC 10 to aid the Tumble check. Tumble 45+2=47 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Coravel improves 1 step.

Gork delays to time his actions with Peanut.

Elgin moves and tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 32 vs. DC 35. Fails. Crowd attitude towards Elgin doesn’t change.
Grindle moves.

The Towering Inferno casts mirror image and moves.

Gork orders Peanut to come and perform. These are tricks he knows, the DC 10 Handle Animal checks are automatic.
Peanut moves and Performs. 18 vs. DC 10. Success. Peanut adds +2 to Gork’s Perform (weapon drill) check. Note: the debris is rough terrain so Peanut cannot reach the desired square.
Gork moves and tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 25+2=27 vs. DC 35. Fails. Crowd attitude towards Gork doesn’t change.

Groden does nothing.

Charmine directs Thornbeak to move and tries to impress the crowd with a Ride check. 40 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Charmine improves 1 step.
Thornbeak moves.

Yarden is on the edge of the smoke and thus able to tell which way is out.
Yarden moves and tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 32 vs. DC 35. Fails. Crowd attitude towards Yarden doesn’t change.

Del is to far into the smoke (15' from the center of a 20' radius effect) to tell which way is out.
Del orders Fu to come. This is a trick he knows, the DC 10 Handle Animal check is automatic.
Del casts embrace the wild for the senses of a porpoise. With his blindsight, he can now make out Moniker and recognize him as a threat, spoiling the assassin’s study.
Del moves away from competitors, triggering Moniker’s readied action.

Moniker moves to follow Del.

Del moves, jumping up onto the platform at the end. 22 vs. DC 20. Success.
Fu moves towards Del. Jump 27 vs. DC 10 to hop-up onto platform. Success. Note: A hop-up counts as 10 ft of movement so Fu cannot make it to the desired location. Also, by my calculations Fu’s Jump modifier is +11 (+8 for speed, +3 Str), not +16.

Foom jumps to move. 49 vs. DC 50 (15 long + 10 high, doubled for no running start). Fails. Foom lands 1 square short of his target position, but since that square is on the same level as his target position, is able to land on his feet as if he had meant to land there. Bluff 15 vs. Crowd Sense Motive 11+0=11. Success. Crowd does not realize that Foom failed to complete the jump he intended.
Foom tries to impress the crowd with a perform (weapon drill) check. 41 vs. DC 35. Success. Crowd attitude towards Foom improves 2 steps.

Spikey activates his Boots of Speed.
Spikey manifests animal affinity.
Spikey moves, Jumping to impress. 70 vs. DC 40. Critical Success. Crowd attitude towards Spikey improves 2 steps. Note: Spikey’s bonus to jump from his speed is +20, not +24.

Brunhilda activates her nimbus.
Brunhilda moves, jumping to impress the crowd. 45 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Brunhilda improves 1 step.
Nimbus deals 5 fire damage to platform. Since platform is wood, fire damage is not halved (unlike normal for fire on objects). Hardness 5 reduces damage to 0. Note: If a wooden item catches fire (i.e. takes damage from fire), it automatically takes 2d6 fire damage each round which by passes hardness in addition to any damage an outside source deals (outside sources still do not by pass hardness.

Achiliene, UrEssel, and James have 24 hours to post their Round 2 action.

Death!

Wow! We've got quite a variety of displays going on here.

Death!

I'll say, weapons are spinning all over the place. It's a wonder that anyone can keep up with it all.

Death!

Just listen to that crowd too. The match has barely started and they're already calling for blood.

Death!

By the gods! Did you see the jump that Spikey just pulled off? I've never seen anything like it in all the planes in the multiverse!

[Benicus]

They're calling for death this early? Distasteful crowd, a bunch of shrewd spectators they are. Still if they want it they shall have it in do time, for now I give my own show.

Achiliene mutters to himself for a moment about his thoughts then brandishes his weapon again showing that he was a very skilled gladiator, not taught in much else he spoke to the crowd, though he had to scream to get to them, "People, you wish to see blood yes? Well you shall! You shall see gallons of it! You shall see the blood of the famed Moniker, his cloaks of shadow's will not hide him from your view forever! All this as I cross into the victor's arch!"

[ooc: Perform (Weapon Drill) at +30, [roll0], apparently I fail...]

[Noocytx]

UrEssel takes a look around, and having seen the man disappear from sight, she realizes that she needs to escape away before that man can come after her. "To the sky" She begins to move her hands and soon after she lifts herself off the ground and flies over Groden who seems to be an easy target.

OOC: Cast Fly, move to L8 (10 ft in air)

[Noocytx]

Maybe they should have listened. Time to teach this one a lesson.

A blur of attacks are unleashed onto Coravel, hoping to put him out of the tournament early.

OOC: 5 ft step to I8,
Arcane Strike (Free Action, Trade in lvl 6 spell, +6 hit, +6d4 dmg)
Ascetic Mage (Swift Action, Trade in lvl 6 spell, +6 hit, +6 dmg)
Full attack at +29/+29/+24/+19, 2d8+6d4+6 non-lethal damage.

[Lune]

After taking in his surroundings as completely as he can now, Moniker watches as Del casts his spell. Noting nothing immediately, he then can see that Del is able to percieve within his cloud just as well as he can. Surprised by this, he is impressed. At first he thinks to press his assault anyway, however there could be something to be gained from this. Thinking as the professional gladiator (and opportunist) he is he follows Del and whispers in his direction, ":eek: ...you be able to see within the Cloud of Death, manling? Come, and we shall both take advantage of mine cloud. Unless you would rather see if you can best me without that one advantage? :evil:"

OOC: Hopefully speach is being counted as an immediate action and this would take place before Moniker's turn. However, if it is not then I will adjust accordingly.

[Black Plauge]

Achilene tries to impress the crowd again with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 33 vs. DC 35. Fails. Crowd attitude towards Achilene is unchanged.

UrEssel casts fly and moves. UrEssel is now 10 ft off the ground.

James steps and attacks Coravel, striking for non-lethal damage. 36, 35, 37, & 24 vs. AC 30. First three hit. Last is deflected by ring. Deals 27, 34, & 23 non-lethal damage.

Maps are unchanged.

[Lord Twig]

Del is momentarily caught off-guard by The Cloud of Death's offer, but quickly realizes that accepting The Cloud's proposal would allow him a better chance to show off his abilities.

"We can save that contest for another day. Until then let us strike fear into those who lack true vision. I will accept your offer."

Note: Del's stat block doesn't show his active spell, "Embrace the Wild" and his spells remaining should be 2/3/3/2

[Tashalar]

Coravel has just finished his 'U' for 'Untouchable' when he gets severely pounded by fists... thanks to his instincts he manages to bring his defences up in time to deflect the fourth incoming attack. Turning towards the imminent threat he brandishes his rapier and shouts at the top of his lungs "Trickster! Fraud! Craven! Show yourself James, son of a dwarf, for I know it to be you who once more is trying to eliminate your strongest adversary! You shall not take me down, not today and not at any other time!" Coravel's face gets darker and darker in anger, but before he is finished with his speech, his rapier suddenly lashes out once to the left and once more in a sudden forward attack, returning the attack in the direction it came from. But Coravel's whole poise is a defensive one as he is gauging the location of his adversary.

After his quick attacks, he takes a small step backwards and haughtily smiles in the direction he suspects James Stone to be...

[AC was 30 last round due to haste effect]

[OOC: boots stay activated until I say otherwise - is that okay?
Coravel is at H7 (as per his last post) and attacks the square where the attacks came from - I8
- fights defensively and combat expertise set to 5
- uses only the two highest attacks of the full attack sequence:
+25 -4 (fight defensively) -5 (CE) +1 haste
=> +17/+17 (50% miss chance)
damage: 1d6 + 5 (I guess the 2d6 from precise doesn't count against an invisible attacker?)
5' step to H6 to finish.]
Edit: Coravel was at H7 to start with not at H8 as posted before.
Edit: If possible, Coravel's dodge target is the invisible attacker... if not possible, it will be UrEssel.

[Chris Chandler]

Not impressive. I must then work on cleaning up my technique. Most disappointing.

Elgin continues to work his way to a less crowded section of the arena, to give him a bit more space. As he heads down he observes the situation he is leaving -

Better for them to have dissent and chaos among themselves for a bit longer - let us give Rakesh an advantage, for the time being.

Stamping the butt of his halberd down on the ground, Elgin pulls out a pinch of ground mica. Opening his hand, he blows it in the direction of the throng to the north of him, and a dazzling array of bliding glitter flows from his hand, covering his competitors.

[Single move to N29, cast Glitterdust, targeting the bottom left of G28, with the intent of catching Gork, Peanut, and Spiky in the area of effect. Dodge target is Brunhilda.]

[Black Plauge]

Coravel attacks James twice, fighting defensively (-4 to hit, +13 AC) and using Combat Expertise (-5 to hit, +5 AC). James is invisible and has the benefit of full concealment. Concealment rolls: 86 & 91. Concealment does not effect either attack. 33 & 35 vs. AC 33. Both hit, second threatens. 29 vs. AC 33. Fails to confirm critical hit. James’ anatomy is not discernable while he is invisible so Precise Strike damage does not apply. Deals 7 and 8 damage. Crowd attitude towards Coravel worsens 5 steps (dealing lethal damage during first 3 rounds of combat). James receives 15 points of healing. Coravel will be charged with the cost of a cure moderate wounds.

Elgin moves, provoking an AoO from both Gork and The Towering Inferno. Since AoOs are provoked simultaneously, I’ll flip a coin to determine who is first: 1. Gork is first.

Gork attacks Elgin. 28+2 (flanking)=30 vs. AC 22 (+4 dodge from mobility). Hits. Deals 31 non-lethal damage. Gork gets a free attempt to initiate a grapple with the mancatcher. 54 vs. 23. Success. Elgin is grappled.

The Towering Inferno attacks Elgin, attempting to trip. 38+2 (flanking)=40 vs. Touch AC 14. Hits. 33 vs. 27. Success. Elgin is prone. The Towering Inferno gets a follow-up attack and attempts to disarm. This would normally provoke an AoO, but Elgin doesn’t threaten The Towering Inferno. 32+2 (spiked chain)=34 vs. 37-4 (prone)=33. Success. Elgin is disarmed. Crowd attitude towards The Towering Inferno improves 4 steps (+2 trip, +2 disarm).

Since he is Prone, Elgin cannot complete his movement. Since he is Grappled, he cannot cast glitterdust because it has a somatic component.
Elgin still has a standard action remaining

Elgin, you have 24 hours to post your standard action for this round.

The Towering Inferno, Gork, & Groden, you have 24 hours to post your round 2 action once Elgin's action is posted..

Maps for the lower half of the arena are unchanged. Please ignore the glitterdust on Gork, Peanut, and Spikey. It will be removed from the next update.

[SlagMortar]

Out of the corner of his eye, Rakesh catches Achiliene's display. He is impressed even if the crowd was not.
"You handle your blade
with the talent of a pro.
Careful! Do not drop."
He activates his boots of speed and three Towering Infernos pounce on the death dancer, all three chains lashing out at Achiliene legs and weapon. Then as suddenly as he struck, he leaps backward twisting in the air and spreads his powerful wings to glide down on top of the platform (or not, see below).

OOC: Move H33 to E33. Signature "spring attack trip" Achiliene (+28 to hit, +16 trip check) and followup with disarm (+34 disarm check). Assuming I can take 10 on a jump check, perform standing broad jump 20 feet (DC 40) toward H36 to impress the crowd with aid of accelerated tumble. At peak of his jump start flying and fly the rest of the way to K38 on platform. I believe that's 65 feet of 70 total movement. If K38 is occupied by Elgin (from his dimension door) then Rakesh will divert to H38. The rest of his action remains unchanged.
If I counted wrong and he can't make it to the platform then he will drop to the ground as far as he can make it. Jump check is +34 due to haste bonus.
If I can't take 10 on a skill to impress the crowd, I will still take 10 and not try to impress the crowd with the jump.
If Rakesh can't fly and spring attack in the same round (he doesn't have flyby attack) then he will move around the wall and toward K38, jumping onto the platform if he can make it far enough.
Edit: Rakesh's boots of speed will remain activated for the rest of the Grand Melee.

[Chris Chandler]

Leaving himself little recourse for the time being, Elgin shifts through a dimensional portal to safer local -

Better to retreat from that predicament. Where is your Head?!

[cast Dimension Door, travelling to K38]

[Boomlaor]

[bah, I tried to jump the gun and he posted while I was typing mine up. Edited slightly to account for Elgin's attempted action. Second edit to add AoO info]

As Gork's mancatcher latches on to Elgin, his loyal fans start to go crazy, knowing what will happen next.

"SQUEEEE!! SQUEEEE!! HAWGTIE!!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Gork smiles as the now famous pig squeels echo around the arena. He struggles to keep Elgin from being able to concentrate on his spell, and with a flip of the wrist, he immobilizes Elgin in a pair of manacles from his belt, and in a smooth motion releases Elgin from the mancatcher's grasp, and steps toward Spikey. With the help of a distraction from Peanut, Gork latches onto Spikey with his mancatcher, pinning him in place and dragging him to the ground.

[ooc: Peanut uses Aid another to grant Gork +2 on attacks vs Spikey, Gork quickdraws masterwork manacles from belt and improved hog-ties Elgin (grapple +41), 5' step to H-28, continue full attack action targeting Spikey, using itterative attacks in the following order, attack with mancatcher (+24, grapple on successful hit), pin (grapple +35 {9 str+4 powerful build+4 improved grapple+8 gloves+6 bab+1 mancatcher enhancement bonus+1 weapon focus mancatcher+2 aid another}, trip with mancatcher (no touch attack needed, trip +15)

If Elgin successfully casts Dimension Door, however, Peanut’s action remains the same. Gork steps to H-28, attacks Spikey with mancatcher (+29, grapple on hit, insert squeels from the audience here), pins (+40), trips (+15) quickdraws masterwork manacles from his belt and hogties (grapple +30)

either way, any AoOs triggered will be grapple attempts]

[Black Plauge]

Elgin tries to cast dimension door. Concentration 33 vs. DC 24 to cast while grappled. Success. Elgin escapes the grapple via dimension door.

Grindle does nothing.

Rakesh activates his boots of speed.
Rakesh makes a spring attack against Achiliene. 44 vs. Touch AC 22. Hits. 31 vs. 22. Success. Achiliene is prone. Rakesh follows up with an attempt to disarm. This would normally provoke an AoO but Achiliene does not threaten Rakesh. 53 vs. 39. Success. Achiliene is disarmed. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 5 steps (+2 trip, +2 disarm, +1 spring attack)
Note: You cannot take 10 in combat unless you have a special ability which allows you to do so.
Rakesh moves away, jumping as he goes before taking flight. Jump 45 vs. DC 40. Success. Rakesh changes to flying midway through the jump.
Note: Because Rakesh can fly and his jump is leading him into flight, the crowd doesn’t consider it anything worth getting excited about.

Peanut does not know the Aid Attack trick so getting him to aid is considered pushing and requries a move action. Handle Animal 13 vs. DC 25. Fails. Peanut does not aid Gork in his attack. His previous order was to come, so he continues with that trick, moving adjacent to Gork.
Peanut moves, provoking an AoO from Spikey. Spikey attacks. 35 vs. AC 14. Threatens. 33 vs. AC 14. Confims critical hit. Deals 25 non-lethal damage. Crowd attitude towards Spikey improves 2 steps.
Gork steps and attacks Spikey with his mancatcher. 35 vs. AC 26. Hits. Deals 16 non-lethal damage and 1 point of strength damage. Gork gets a free grapple attempt. 61 vs. 42. Success. Spikey is grappled.

Groden, Charmine, and Yarden have 24 hours to post their round 2 actions.

The maps for the left hand side of the arena have not changed. See most recent versions of them in previous posts.

[generaljimX]

Charmaine is confident in her position, and fires off a volley of arrows toward the flaming opponent near her. While she does so, she order the hippogriff to attack anyone who gets within range.

I wonder if the flames are going to hurt the arrows.....

[OOC: Full attack, using Improved Rapid Shot, at Brunhilda. +25/+25/+20/+15/+10 (1d6+2+1d6, all subdual). Thornbeak's dodge target is Yarden. He readies an action to attack anyone who comes within range(if possible; I'm not sure it is).

[Lord Twig]

"Hrumph! That mounted midget is probably as close to the ground as she is going to get on that winged beast of hers. Let's see if I can get her attention."

Yarden launches himself forward with a tremendous clang of armor and weapons, his short but powerful strides closing the distance. At the last moment he leaps up to take a swing at the small paladin.

Move to M23 and attack Charmaine. Attacking to subdue (+23 attack). Dodge target is Charmaine.

[Black Plauge]

Groden goes on full defense and moves.

Charmaine attacks Brunhilda. 33, 29, 34, 26, & 27 vs. AC 20. All hit. Deals 12, 8, 12, 10, & 11 non-lethal damage. DR reduces to 11, 7, 11, 9 & 10 non-lethal damage.
Thornbeak readies an action. Note: Thornbeak’s Int is 9, he can learn 27 tricks, and there are only 22 published. He can do anything a trick would allow an animal to do. If you could communicate with him, he wouldn’t be limited by tricks.

Yarden moves, triggering Thornbeak’s readied action. Thornbeak attacks Yarden. 31 vs. AC 32. Deflected by armor.
Yarden attacks Charmaine, striking for non-lethal damage. 38 vs. AC 32. Hits. Deals 12 non-lethal damage.

The Cloud of Death, Del, & Foom have 24 hours to post their round 2 action.

[Darius]

Foom Fang Fing quickly takes stock of the situation, though his decision h\is made as soon as he sees the Death Dancer go down. "Behold my Purple Pants Technique!" the monk shouts as he quickly moves into a position to attack the downed duellist. He drives his fist down, seeking for a particular pressure point.

[OOC: Move to C32; Attack Achilene at +16/2d8+4. Non-lethal damage. Use Stunning Fist DC: 25. Any attacks of opportunity will be to trip, followed by a non-lethal strike to stun.]

[Lune]

Moniker looks around to pick a new target. He can clearly hear combat happening to his east and to his south. :devious: Grinning he senses to his south. Quietly he speaks to Del behind a cynical grin, "Do you think you can manage to neutralize our flying friend there?" He does this while pointing at Charmaine...well, more specifically at his bow.

OOC:
Moniker is not idle in the meantime. He casts Freedom of Movement on himself, drops one his eversmoking bottles and begins moving towards his new target. (If you rule that dropping the bottle is a free action then I would like to do a move action to N21. If you rule that it is a move action then I will simply 5' step one space to the south to H18.)
Though not specifically mentioned previously it should be assumed that both bottles were unstoppered (valves open, whatever) from the start as this is SOP for the Cloud of Death.

[Lord Twig]

Del frowns as he realizes that he will have to leave his swords behind, but events are moving quickly. Dropping his swords he chants a very short spell, then takes off like a shot. He whistles for Fu as he speeds past The Cloud of Death and leaps onto a platform at the far side of the arena. His bow appears in his hand and an arrow takes flight almost before he comes to a complete stop.

Drop swords, cast Swift Haste (+1 attack, AC and Ref, +30 move (doesn't stack with boots)) and move to P18 jumping onto the platform there. Attempt a Ranged Disarm against Charmaine.

Primary intent is that Del would like to get in range of Charmaine and try his signature move. If he can he would like to be on a platform and just inside of The Cloud's cloud. The whistling is so Fu knows which way to go, I believe he should still be trying to come to Del.

If Cloud is in his way he will try an accelerated Tumble past him (but not through him, he will go around), but I believe that Cloud's intent is that he would not take the AoO. If he will let Del through his space Del will take it.

[Black Plauge]

The Cloud of Death casts freedom of movement.
The Cloud of Death loses one of his bottles and drops it to the ground. Note: Since you specified that the bottles were bound to you, dropping them requires you to retrieve them first (you can only drop what you have in hand). So while the drop itself is free, retrieving the bottle is a move equivalent action.
The Cloud of Death steps.

Del drops his swords and draws his bow.
Del casts swift haste
Del moves, provoking an AoO from The Cloud of Death. The Cloud does not take this AoO.
Del moves. Note: Going around The Cloud of Death means that Del cannot make it all the way onto the platform with 60' of movement.
Del attacks Charmaine, attempting to disarm her. This provokes an AoO, but Charmaine does not threaten Del. 26+1 (point blank shot)+4 (size difference)=31 vs. 40-4 (non-melee weapon)=36. Disarm attempts fails. Charmaine’s weapon is not a melee weapon so she cannot attempt a recipricol disarm (she also can’t reach Del).
Fu can follow Del’s general direction by scent when he passes in front of him and continues to come, following by sight once clear of the cloud.

Foom moves and attacks Achiline, dealing non-lethal damage and attempting to stun. 32 vs. AC 20 (-4 prone). Hits. Deals 10 non-lethal damage. Achiliene Fort 25 vs. DC 25. Stun attempt fails.

Spikey and Brunhilda have 24 hours to post their round 2 action.

Lower right portion of map is unchanged.

[Boomlaor]

[upon entering the arena Brunhilda was psionically focused and the merciful enchantment of her magic rock was active, her standard procedure for a match]

Brunhilda howls in anger as the arrows strike home.

"What, are you JEALOUS SHORTY?!?!?! Can't handle being in the arena with a more beautiful woman!?!?!"

She rises up into the air slightly, the flames around her swirling faster and faster as she flies into a rage. The audience collectively holds its breath in anticipation as she stares down the mounted halfling.

"See how pretty you look after this!!"

The rock in her hand bursts into flame, and with a grunt of effort, she hurls it at the halfling, trying to mar the small being's face. The crowd gasps as a flaming meteor roughly the same size as the halfling hurtles toward its target.

[ooc Free action to expend psionic focus to activate firewalk, take a 5' step straight up, rage, move action to activate weapon affire on the magic rock, attack Charmaine with magical rock, power throwing for 5 (merciful active, +22 atk bonus). If rage would make her firewalk fail for some reason, I don't think it would by reading it, but just trying to cover my bases, then forego the firewalk. As I understand the RAW, merciful makes all damage done by the weapon nonlethal and weapon affire makes the weapon deal an extra 4d6 of damage. If these extra dice would be lethal damage, forego the weapon affire.]

[Tashalar]

Caught inside this tool of his... he fears letting me get near him... I shall show him what a bad decision it was to target me... I will take him out as well as his little pet ape...

Spikey does not utter a sound, but suddenly he rises up and seems to grow as he tries to shrug off the mancatcher.

[OOC: sadly cannot add any more descriptive text as everything else depends on the outcome... if it is allowed, I will edit here for description after the outcome has been 'diced' by BP.]

all damage dealt will be non-lethal!

Follow up with a full attack including flurry and extra attack via haste on Gork (+18/+18/+18/+18/+13/+8). First three attacks will be with Stunning Fist (DC 25) - as soon as Gork is stunned, forego the use of further stunning fists and instead attack to deal unarmed damage (all damage is 4d8+6). The last attack will be a grappling attempt vs. Peanut - if he should drop unconscious, stop grappling as free action.]

[2. If swift Expansion is unsuccessful, then manifest (augmented for huge size) Expansion defensively (Concentration +15) as a standard action for 7 PPs; mod for opposed STR check: +7; if successful, then size is huge; reach is 15' (+ other mods) and Spikey is then at D-F 26-28. Take 5' step upwards to be on C-E 26-28.]

[Edit: my intent is not to get AoOs for manifesting. Manifesting in a grapple isn't actually called 'defensively' I guess, but in any case needs a successful Concentration check (DC 21 for a 1st level power). Do I need to make an additional defensive manifesting check to not let Peanut get an AoO? If so, please have Spikey make those checks. Any normal defensive manifesting would be automatic for 1st level powers though. So I guess the DC 21 Concentration check for both is what is needed. Sorry for the confusion on my part! :nervous:]

[Black Plauge]

Spikey tries to manifest expansion as a swift action. Concentration 20 vs. DC 21 to manifest while grappled. Fails. Spikey loses the power.
Spikey tries to manifest expansion as a standard action, augmented for huge size and manifested defensively to avoid AoOs. Concentration 25 vs. DC 21 to manifest while grappled. Success. Concentration 24 vs. DC 16 to manifest defensively. Success. Spikey starts growing to huge size. His growth, however, is limited by the mancatcher, which is held shut by Gork. Opposed Strength checks to establish whether Gork is able to hold the mancatcher closed or Spikey is able to force it open. Spikey 21 vs. Gork 27. Gork is able to hold the mancatcher closed. Spikey’s expansion is prevented, and he remains grappled.

Brunhilda expends her psionic focus and activates firewalk (spending 1 PP).
Brunhilda steps and rages.
Brunhilda activates her hand afire ability and throws her magical rock at Charmaine, power attacking in the process. 42-5 (power attack)=37 vs. AC 32. Hits. Deals 43 non-lethal damage (of which 18 is from fire).

Whoa hoa! Lots of action out there now that the displays are over. Some of the gladiators are still trying to provide a show, but others are out for blood.

Invisibility is an overdrawn trick, perhaps the Magic Fist should use his for once!

Not blood but bruises, except for Coravel. He's been flagged with a penalty and James has been the lucky recipient of some healing.

It also seems that Del & Moniker have formed a temporary alliance.

And everyone's ganging up on the halfling.

WOAAAH!!! GO FIRE LADY!! *whistles loudly*
that's a big bitch.
freak!
SHUT UP!! SHE'S HOT!!!

It also seems that we have some rather vulgar people in the crowd.

Maps are unchanged.

[Noocytx]

I shouldn't have rushed into this!

James takes a couple steps back, and decides that he must continue on with his magical nature to try and overcome his newest opponent. He speaks a few magical words, and enchants himself with more speed to match that of his opponent.

Patience is key to success.

OOC: Move to J9, cast haste.

[Noocytx]

"A little this way, a little that away." That was quick, teams have been formed. And quite a formidable one at that, being able to see in that gas. I hope it doesn't smell in there.

Let's try to set myself up for a better shot on a weaker individual.
UrEssel flies over the arena, moving from one half to the other with delicate grace.

OOC: Double move, height 20 ft, move to M26.

[Black Plauge]

Achiliene takes a total defense action.

UrEssel moves.

James moves and casts haste.

Coravel, Elgin, and Rakesh have 24 hours to post their round 3 action.

[Tashalar]

Coravel's sneers haughtily as his rapier hits true both times when he attacks his craven, invisible adversary. The moment Coravel wants to start taunting him, he realizes what he has done...

"Oh damn you! I say it again... show yourself and fight openly you craven!" Coravel is furious, but directs his anger at his invisible opponent rather than admitting he'd done wrong...

When The Magic Fist does not continue to attack him, Coravel makes a full turn on his heels, scanning the area for signs of an imminent assault. "So... you have decided to pull back already? NOT EVEN BEING INVISIBLE GIVES HIM THE COURAGE TO FACE ME!" Coravel then shouts to the crowd.

Suddenly Coravel erupts into a flurry of cartwheels, flips and dodges left and right while moving to the other side of the arena where Groden is. Why hasn't he changed into one of those nasty forms of his yet?! Coravel suddenly appears right in front of him, lashes out with his rapier and then tumbles away again.

[Tumble at normal speed (+10 to DC) to evade AoOs (Tumble +28) via I7 to R8 (55 feet); spring attacking Groden fighting defensively, using combat expertise (-5 to attack)] and trying to deal non-lethal damage (-4 to attack) => +13 to attack, damage: 1d6+5 (+2d6 from precise strike if it counts as non-lethal damage); tumble at normal speed (see above) to R11 (15 feet); dodge target is still The Magic Fist]

Edited for rather major typos...

[Chris Chandler]

Elgin sighs - then looks a little relieved at the sight before him -

Well, at least I can go pick up my weapon again. Whether or not I can keep hold, is another question - definitely a breadth of technique at use here.

He moves, preturnaturally fast, leaping from his platform and kicking up a cloud of dust as he moves to his weapon.

Perhaps, if I were a little better protected...

Spinning his halberd in a quick succession of one-handed movements, he takes a methodical look all around the arena, lighting on Rakesh, Brunhilda, and Gork, in turn.

[Activate Boots of Speed as a free action, then move (hopping down from platform) to H30, pick up Halberd as a move action, wishes he had a swift action to do anything as a free action, dodge target is so very Rakesh]

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh eyes Brunhilda slowly rising up from the ground. He also sees Elgin has retrieved his halberd. The crowd seemed to enjoy his dizzying array of chain work so he'll give them more of a show, knowing to milk the crowd while they are enjoying a trick and move on to something else once they need something new.

Adrenaline beginning to surge through his body, he moves in quickly dodging around the rubble and wall to strike at Elgin, again wrapping up his legs and weapon. By the time he strikes his eyes are visibly wider and his skin has taken on a slightly redder tone as he lets the beast inside rise up. There will be no poetry from Rakesh for the rest of this match.

Looking more and more like a pack of wolves, he pulls back and jumps/flies up onto the platform directly beneath Brunhilda.

OOC: Move I32. Rage and spring attack trip Elgin with follow up to disarm (+13 BAB + 14 Str + 2 weapon + 1 haste + 1 morale = +31 to hit, +14 Str + 4 feat = +18 trip check, +31 to hit + 4 two-handed + 2 spiked chain = +37 disarm). If counter tripped, Rakesh will not drop his weapon. Move to K32 and jump/fly up onto platform at L32 directly beneath Brunhilda. Attack of opportunity on Brunhilda will be to disarm her magic rock. If she moves away from Rakesh, he will allow her to move 5 feet, but disarm her when she tries to move further away. If she doesn't move and instead tries to throw, he will disarm her immediately of the magic rock. Dodge target is still Brunhilda.

Edit (for being prone and not in the location Rakesh expected): Attack of opportunity will be taken for damage: +27 to hit, 2d4+1d6+2(enhancement)+21(strength)+1(morale) = 2d4+1d6+24 damage all non-lethal)

[Black Plauge]

Coravel moves, tumbling to avoid AoOs. No need for a check as his route doesn’t provoke AoOs.
Coravel spring attacks Groden, fighting defensively and using combat expertise and attempting to deal non-lethal damage. 33-9 (fighting defensively & combat expertise)-4 (non-lethal damage)=20 vs. AC 22. Deflected by armor.
Coravel springs away.

Elgin activates his Boots of Speed.
Elgin moves and picks up his weapon.

Rakesh rages.
Rakesh spring attacks Elgin, attempting to trip him. 51 vs. Touch AC 16. Hits automatically. 21 vs. 24. Trip attempts fails. Elgin gets a counter trip attempt. 17 vs. 15. Success. Rakesh holds onto his spiked chain and falls to the ground. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh worsens 2 steps. Crowd attitude towards Elgin improves 2 steps.

Gork, Groden, & Charmaine have 24 hours to post their round 3 actions.

[Boomlaor]

Gork goes to work with his mancatcher, pulling Spikey to the ground and immobilizing him briefly. Then, however, a gleam comes into Gork's eye as he spots Elgin out of the corner of his eye, happy that the one that got away is once again in range of his crushing grip. He briefly addresses Spikey:

"There are many less worthy opponents here, let us finish this wrestling match, with honor, when they have been subdued. Peanut here'll watch your back while you get up."

"You hear that peanut? keep an eye on him."

Without waiting for an answer he drops the mancatcher, freeing Spikey and turns on Elgin. He steps toward Elgin and pulls the human into a crushing embrace, relying on his knowledge of human anatomy to ensure he is grinding on painful preasure points. With a flash of speed he pulls some manacles from his belt, and Elgin is left face down, his limbs bound behind him and the audience's squeels ringing in his ears.

[ooc use mancatcher special ability to force spikey to the ground (first attack of full attack action, trip +15, drop the mancatcher to avoid being counter tripped), pin spikey with mancatcher (second attack of full attack action, grapple +38), talk as free action, order Peanut to Defend Spikey as a free action, drop mancatcher as a free action, 5' step to H-29, grapple Elgin (third attack of full attack action, touch attack +15, grapple +31), quickdraw masterwork manacles from belt, hogtie Elgin (fourth attack of full attack action, grapple +26). If the attempt to grapple elgin misses, the fourth itterative attack will also be a grapple attempt. If Gork is forced to drop the mancatcher to avoid being counter tripped, move all actions up 1 attack (i.e. trip, drop to avoid being tripped, talk, handle peanut, 5' step, grapple, hogtie, no fourth attack).]

[Black Plauge]

Gork tries to force Spikey to the ground. 23 vs. 15. Success. Spikey is prone. Crowd attitude towards Gork improves 2 steps.
Gork tries to pin Spikey. 40 vs. 32. Success. Spikey is pinned. Crowd attitude towards Gork improves. Crowd attitude towards Spikey worsens.
Gork directs Peanut to Defend Spikey. This is a trick he knows, so Handle Animal check is automatic.
Gork releases the mancatcher, draws manacles, and steps. Note: If you don’t draw the manacles here it requires a grapple check to get them out.
Gork attempts to grapple Elgin. 24 vs. Touch AC 17. Hits. Grapple 50 vs. 26. Success. Elgin is grappled. Gork steps into Elgin’s space.
Gork attempts to hogtie Elgin. 31 vs. 36. Fails.

Groden takes a full defense action and moves.

Charmaine takes a full defense action and directs Thornbeak to move. They are now 50' off the ground.

Yarden, The Cloud of Death, & Del have 24 hours to post their round 3 action.

[Lord Twig]

"That was just a tap on the shoulder you lily-livered little runt!" Yarden yells at Charmaine as she flies away. "I though you people came here to fight and all I see is running, flying and a bunch of huggin'!" Yarden gestures to the strange mêlée taking place to the North.

Turning around he spots Del behind him and begins running at him. "You better put that kindling away. Don't you tree-huggers have any real weapons?" As he finishes closing Yarden seems to hunker-down and his axe leaps out in a back-handed swing at Del. "And what's with the little puppy you brought along? Do you throw that stick of yours and he fetches it or something?"

Move to N19. Assume Defensive Stance (+2 Str, +4 Con, +4 AC, +2 Saves, +34 HP). Attack Del with Axe for non-lethal damage and using Combat Expertise -5 to hit/+5 AC. Dodge target is Del.

AC should be 41 (42 vs. Del), touch AC 26 (27 vs. Del). Attack is +28 -4 non-lethal -5 Combat Expertise = +19 to hit. Deals 1D10+12 non-lethal damage.

[Lune]

Moniker scowls within his Cloud of Death as he spots the halfling ride his Hippogriff up and away. As the halfling himself wasn't his target anyway he senses about for another one. Hearing the loud approach of the dwarf he sensed earlier toward Del his decision is made for him. With the din of battle in the air Moniker believes he hardly needs to be silent, but does so anyway. Moving gracefully he leaps atop the nearby platform and continues to envelope the dwarf within his Cloud of Death and positions himself for an attack.

OOC: Move from current position to platform at K20 and continue to advance to L20 to put him within 10' range to attack Yarden. I will not make an actual attack yet and all movement is halved and entire action should consist of a double move. Move silently: +23, Hide (which he will use whether needed or not): +15
Moniker will be taking an attack of opportunity that he gets on Yarden if he provokes one.
Please use quick reconoiter to notice foes beyond his blindsight range.
Intention is to get into range for a full attack next round without the dwarf noticing where Moniker himself actually is.

[Lord Twig]

Without his swords Del knows that he will have to come up with a different strategy against the Dwarf. As the Cloud envelopes them Del sees his chance. He sprints past Yarden and leaps up onto a platform behind him. He then chants and Fu grows to twice his normal size.

"Perhaps you would like to play with the 'little' puppy?" Del taunts the dwarf. He then shouts a command in Elvish to Fu and a deep growling can be heard coming from deep inside the Cloud.

Move to N23, jumping on top of the platform. Cast Animal Growth on Fu (+8 Str, +4 Con, -2 Dex, +16 HP, +2 natural AC, +4 saves, DR 10/magic, Size: Large). Command Fu to Subdue Yarden.

If Del can still get a running start for the jump he will tumble or accelerated tumble past Yarden. If either would slow him down too much he will just run past trusting to the smoke to prevent an AoO. He is willing to take it if it doesn't.

Fu will attack Yarden to subdue (+13 -4 non-lethal = +9, damage 2D6+7). If he hits he will try to trip.

Note: Yarden will try his Spellcraft to identify the spell being cast if he can.

[Black Plauge]

Yarden moves, assumes his defensive stance, and attacks Del. 38-5 (Combat Expertise)-4 (non-lethal damage)=29 vs. AC 24. Hits. Deals 17 non-lethal damage.

Moniker moves, keeping quiet as he goes. Move silently 25 & Hide 23 (I will use these results should they become necessary). Moniker must climb over a platform along the way. Climb 17 vs. DC 15. Success.

Del moves, tumbling to avoid AoOs and jumping up onto a platform at the end. Tumble DC 15 is automatic. Jump DC 20 is automatic.
Del casts animal growth on Fu. Fu’s size doubles. Yarden Spellcraft 16 vs. DC 19. Fails.
Del commands Fu to subdue Yarden.
Fu’s scent ability allows him to pinpoint Yarden.
Fu attacks Yarden, dealing non-lethal damage. 32-4 (non-lethal damage)=28 vs. AC 41. Deflected by shield.

Foom, Spikey, & Brunhilda have 24 hours to post their round 3 actions.

[Darius]

Foom decides to take advantage of his opponents attempt to cover up. "You might try to protect your vitals from Foom, but Foom knows where they are! You cannot hide from the Deadly Pincer Technique!"

[OOC: Full attack on Death Dancer, +16/+16/+16/+11/+9 first two attacks will be Stunning Blows. If the first first Stunning Blow succeeds, the second will be a Weakening Touch. All AoO directed at Death Dancer will be to trip if he attempts to stand, otherwise they will be a normal attack. All damage is non-lethal. Damage is 2d8+4]

[Tashalar]

A slightly astonished look replaces the frustration on Spikey's face as he realizes his adversary does as proclaimed. Released from the mancatcher, Spikey gets up, eyeing the ape warily as he does so. While Gork is still looking at him, Spikey nods in reply to his proposal.

As the ape makes no move to attack him, Spikey draws power to quicken his attack on his next chosen adversary. Smaller, but flying... that will put me in the spot light...

Suddenly he bounds across the arena over to where UrEssel is flying, jumps straight up and grabs for her... an impressive 12' jump...

[Stand up from prone as move action; if Peanut does not take the AoO, he'll manifest hustle as a swift action (-3 PPs), move to L27 and jump up as another move action (Jump +52) and try to grapple UrEssel as a standard action. If Peanut does attack him, he'll manifest hustle defensively, and then still do the move and attack as described above

Touch attack: +18; grapple +29; damage (non-lethal): 2d10+5 +1d6 for natural spikes - if natural spikes can only deal lethal damage, he will not use them]

[Boomlaor]

"That's right, run away while you still can, you jealous little runt!" Brunhilda calls as the halfling takes to the sky. Without catching her rock as it returns to her, she lets the nonmagic rock fall from her fingers and turns her anger on a new target. She streaks off toward the north, drawing her scythe as she goes and hooks Foom Fang Fing's leg with it.

[ooc: drop rock from left hand, magic rock falls to the ground on the platform Brunhilda was over, move to D32, 5' elevation, drawing scythe on the way, attempt to trip Foom Fang Fing (touch attack [roll0]+24{higher ground}, trip attempt [roll1]+12) if not successful drop scythe to avoid counter-trip, as firewalk expires attempt a jump check to land on her feet, also attempting to impress the crowd, if possible]
[edit: any AoO's provoked will be melee attacks to deal non-lethal damage]
[edit2 to clarify intent: primary intent is to close with FFF and attack, if regular movement would be insufficient to do so then this will be a charge action]
[edit3 to remove followup attack]

[Black Plauge]

Foom attacks Achiliene, attempting to stun. 29 vs. AC 26 (-4 prone, +6 total defense). Hits. Deals 18 non-lethal damage. Achiline Fort 24 vs. DC 25. Fails. Achiline is stunned.
Foom attacks Achiliene, attempting to weaken him. 28 vs. AC 17 (-4 prone, -2 stunned, no Dex, +6 total defense). Hits. Achiliene has a -6 penalty to his strength. Crowd attitude towards Foom improves 2 steps.
Foom attacks Achiliene. 19, 14, & 22 vs. AC 17 (-4 prone, -2 stunned, no Dex, +6 total defense). Two hit, one deflected by ring. Deals 9 & 17 non-lethal damage.

Spikey stands from prone. This provokes from Peanut, but since he’s ordered to defend Spikey, he doesn’t attack.
Spikey manifests hustle gaining a bonus move action.
Spikey moves, jumping up to reach UrEssel. Jump 66 vs. DC 48. Success. Crowd attitude towards Spikey improves 1 step.
Spikey attacks UrEssel, trying to initiate a grapple. 20 vs. Touch AC 20. Hits. Grapple 36 vs. 16. Success. Deals 19 non-lethal damage (spikes are lethal damage only). Spikey moves into UrEssel’s space. Spikey’s weight is less than his own maximum load, so he is capable of holding onto UrEssel in mid air. Spikey’s weight exceed’s UrEssel’s light load, so her fly spell is temporarily suppressed. The pair sinks back to the ground.

Brunhilda moves, drawing her scythe along the way. This provokes an AoO from Rakesh. 34-4 (prone)=30 vs. AC 18. Hits. Deals 29 non-lethal damage. Nimbus deals 9 fire damage. Rakesh is immune to fire damage.
Brunhilda moves and attacks Foom, attempting to trip. 30+1 (higher ground)=31 vs. Touch AC 25. Hits. 29 vs. 20. Success. Foom is prone. Crowd attitude towards Foom improves 2 steps.
Brunhilda’s firewalk expires. She falls 5 ft. Jump DC 15 to land on her feet is automatic.

Achiliene, UrEssel, & James have 24 hours to post your round 4 action.

We've got a few more alliances forming. It seems that Gork and Spikey have decided to stop fighting each other and concentrate on other opponents.

Is that big one just gonna go around trippin all day? Like a bad Color Powder high.

Some of our other competitors aren't quite so lucky though. Rakesh, for instance, seems to have become victim to his own tactics.

Fu and The Cloud of Death seem to be working together still, too.

That appears to be enough to send Charmaine fleeing in fear.

[Noocytx]

"Ha, you think you can hold me? Hold on to this" With a quick verbal command, UrEssel frees herself from Spikey and continues her ascent to make sure that few will be able to reach her from her new position.

OOC: If possible, dimension door 30 ft in air above H7. If not, dimension door to E38.

[Noocytx]

That one isn't moving. Able to avoid battle like that. Not right now. Still in his invisible state, Magic Fist moves next to Groden and attempts to lay a punch into the fightless being.

OOC:
Move to P5
Wraithstrike, swift action; Use 5th Level spell for Arcane Strike
Attack Roll: [roll0], 2d8+5d4 nonlethal damage

[Black Plauge]

Achiliene goes on full denfense and stays put.

UrEssel tries to cast dimension door. Concentration 30 vs. DC 24 to cast while grappled. Success. UrEssel reappears elsewhere in the arena.

James casts wraithstrike.
James moves and attacks Groden. 24 vs. Touch AC 14. Hits. Deals 21 non-lethal damage.

Coravel, Elgin, & Rakesh have 24 hours to post their round 4 actions.

[Tashalar]

What is he doing? Running already? "You... COWARD!! All of you - CRAVEN!!" Coravel is turning red in the face again as he looks around the arena. Noone dare face me... only if they can strike from behind... well, this is the last round of holding back. I'll pick myself a nice target for the upcoming round then...

Coravel shakes his head in disgust at Groden's retreat and moves over to the other side of the arena, jumping on or over several platforms on the way. On the way he draws his other, famed rapier.

[OOC: total defense as a standard action, then move to S26, jumping over or on platforms as needed (jump +43) - movement might not suffice, so he'll go as far on line S as possible; AoO will be to disarm (if opponent has a weapon) followed by an attack to deal non-lethal damage or an attack to deal non-lethal damage (if no weapon) - weapon used is non-magical rapier.]

[Chris Chandler]

You really do like the wrestling, there Gork! I suppose, though, you'll have to deal with Rakesh, because, well, this is just a little too cozy for my tastes. Ta!

*bamf*

[Free action for smack. Standard Action to Cast Dimension Door on the defensive. Target square is P34. Free Action to activate power surge (+8 to Str for 2 rounds). Move action to Channel Spell onto Halberd, per PM, dodge opponent is still Rakesh]

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh is stunned for a moment as he hits the ground wondering what happened. His respect for Elgin grows a great deal. At least he manages to land a solid blow at the firey thing as she flew passed.

However, his main concern is how close he is to Gork. Rakesh has seen him manhandle enough of the other competitors to know he doesn't want to get turned into a pretzel. Roaring "Elgin's gettin' tired of teleporting!", he lashes out with his chain, channeling his fury into the powerful blows, and trying to knock Gork through the ground.

OOC: Full attack from prone with power attack 4 (to hit: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +1 morale -4 prone -4 power attack = +23/+23/+18/+13, damage: 2d4 +1d6 +21 Str + 2 weapon +1 morale +8 power attack = 2d4+1d6+32 non-lethal). Trip until successful (trip check: +14 Str + 4 feat = +18). Attack of opportunity will be saved for Gork unless something makes Rakesh unable to make an attack of opportunity against Gork (like Gork becomes invisible, just trying to cover my bases) or Gork is incapacitated by the initial onslaught. Attacks of opportunity will be for damage.

[Black Plauge]

Note: You can’t take AoOs while on full defense.
Coravel goes on full defense and moves, drawing his other rapier as he goes.

Note: Order of actions has been changed to allow them all to take place.
Elgin activates his Power Surge. Concentration checks DC 20 & 15 are automatic.
Elgin tries to channel ray of enfeeblement into his halbred. Concentration DC 21 is automatic.
Elgin tries to cast dimension door. Concentration 35 vs. DC 24. Success. Elgin reappears elsewhere in the arena.
Grindle does nothing.

Rakesh attacks Gork, attempting to trip. 37 vs. Touch AC 13. Hits. 30 vs. 18. Success. Gork is prone. Rakesh gets a follow up attack. 29 vs. AC 16 (-4 prone). Hits. Deals 44 non-lethal damage. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 2 steps.
Rakesh attacks Gork, power attacking for extra damage. 26, 25, & 24 vs. AC 16 (-4 prone). All hit. Deals 40, 37, & 42 non-lethal damage. Gork is unconscious.

Peanut moves to remain close to Spikey and defend him.

Yarden smirks as the cloud closes over him. "Oh dear me!" he says in a mocking voice, "What ever shall I do? It's so dark!" Then he laughs, "Cloud, I've been fighting in the dark longer than you've been alive I'd wager. Let's see what you got!"

Yarden listens keenly for any sign of his new foe, the large wolf forgotten, the beast is just a distraction.

If Yarden can hear which direction Cloud is in without spending an action he will step 5' towards Cloud and full attack in Clouds direction, alternating between squares until he hits him.

If not he will take a Move action to try to hear him and if he succeeds will 5' step towards him and attack.

If he can't hear him he will ready an action that, if he is attacked in melee, he will 5' step and attack in the direction he is attacked from.

All attacks (including AoO) will be for non-lethal damage (-4 to hit) and using Combat Expertise for -5 to Hit/+5 AC. If Yarden can not pin-point a square to attack he will attack one of the two squares in the direction he believes Cloud is in (Yarden knows where the wall is and won't attack that square). I figured a random square is the fairest way to do it.

Dodge opponent will be Cloud.

[generaljimX]

Charmaine takes a deep breath, and wheels her hippogriff friend around. She slowly lowers herself down while flying halfway across the arena. She spots a target pop into view split seconds before she fires, trying to hit and deal as much damage as possible. She finally settles in her mounts saddle, 10 feet above a platform.

OOC: Move to 10' above K-L/38-39, full attack on Elgin on the way. +25/+25/+20/+15/+10, 2d6+2 Subdual, an extra +1 to hit and damage if within Point Blank Range at time of shot.

[Black Plauge]

Groden goes on full defense.

Charmaine directs Thornbeak to move and full attacks Elgin while he does so. 37, 38, 36, 21, & 21 vs. AC 19. All hit. Deals 8, 9, 9, 11, & 8 non-lethal damage.

Yarden’s reactive Listen 8 vs. Moniker’s Move Silently 25 (from before). Fails.
Yarden attempts to locate Moniker via sound. Listen 12 vs. Move Silently 25 (from before). Fails.
Yarden readies an action.

[Darius]

"Foom Fang Fing does not like scary fire lady! You go way now!" Following his own advice, Foom springs to his feet and tumbles away from Brunhilda.


[Stand from prone, move to C24, Tumble +25 to avoid AoOs; jump+37 as necessary]

[Lune]

Moniker chuckles silently to himself over the dwarf's words. "As if it will matter", he thinks. Standing right where he is at, his eyes go wide as his blood begins to run hot through his veins. He supresses a growl that desperately wants to escape.

OOC: swift action - cast wraithstrike, free action - rage, power attack for 2, full attack with flurry on Yarden for nonlethal damage with Death's Grip:
(BAB 12 +10 Str -2 flurry -4 nonlethal -2 power attack +1 weapon focus +1 magic = 16) 16/16/11/6
damage: 2d4+17 (+10 Str +1 magic +4 power attack +2 bonus from armbands)
quietly 5ft step back to L21 (move silently: +23, hide +15)
draw potion from belt if able to
grin evily as a free action

[Lord Twig]

Del smiles. The Grand Mêlée. This was what he was waiting for. With a quick prayer to Ehlonna he feels his arms fill with speed and power. He becomes one with his bow. Every competitor comes into sharp focus. Suddenly his arm blurs and arrows begin to fly from his bow at impossible speed, each seeking a different target.

Cast Arrow Storm (4th) as a swift action. Del will attack everyone except Moniker and Fu (of course). If they are within 30’ and have a weapon he will attempt to disarm (+25 Attack). If they are further than 30’ he will do a standard attack (+24 to hit, 1d8 +1d6 +5 +Favored Enemy bonus if applicable, all damage non-lethal).

Fu will continue to try to subdue Yarden. If he hits he will trip.

Attack breakdown:
Charmaine, +24, 1d8+1d6+5
Thornbeak, +24, 1d8+1d6+5
Gork, no attack (he is already unconscious)
Peanut, +25, 1d8+1d6+6
James, +24, 1d8+1d6+12
Rakesh, +24, 1d8+1d6+5
Brunhilda, +24, 1d8+1d6+12
Yarden, Disarm +25
Spikey, +25, 1d8+1d6+6 (Don’t think he has a weapon in hand, if he does disarm instead)
Achiliene, +24, 1d8+1d6+12
Moniker, no attack
Fu, no attack
Coravel, Disarm +25 (primary hand, I think he has two weapons right now)
Elgin, +24, 1d8+1d6+12 (if I can target him past the bush and walls)
Groden, +24, 1d8+1d6+12 (but I think the wall will prevent it)
Foom Fang Fing, +24, 1d8+1d6+12
UrEssel, +24, 1d8+1d6+5

[Tashalar]

Now where did she go to, Spikey thinks as he scans the arena for any traces of UrEssel and finds none. I'm in a bad position here... anyone can attack me and grappling someone will leave me wide open for attacks... and half the arena is filled with that nasty smoke! I need to see to my defenses first.

Thought and done, Spikey moves over to the other side of the arena and suddenly becomes a blur...

[move to O40 (should be exactly 80') and then manifest greater concealing amorpha (5 PPs); AoO will be for damage and stun]

[sorry for posting early, but I will be offline until Sunday and it was his turn anyways... ;) ]

[Black Plauge]

Moniker casts wriathstrike. Yarden Listen 8 vs. DC 0. Success. Yarden knows the general direction to The Cloud of death.
Moniker rages.
Moniker attacks Yarden, triggering Yarden’s readied action. Since Moniker has reach, this only tells Yarden the general direction Moniker is in, which he already knew.
Yarden steps and attacks, using Combat Expertise for max. There are two possible squares where Moniker might be. On a roll of 50 or less he picks the right one. 80. Yarden attacks the wrong square.
Moniker attacks Yarden, attempting to deal non-lethal damage and power attacking for extra damage. 24, 32, 31, & 18 vs. Touch AC 27. One hits, one threatens, and two whiffs. 29 vs. Touch AC 27. Confirms critical hit. Deals 23, & 23+21=44 non-lethal damage. DR reduces to 17 & 38. Crowd attitude towards The Cloud of Death doesn’t change (the crowd can see neither the critical hit, nor the whiff).
Moniker steps. Move Silently 39. Hide 34.
Note: Drawing a potion is a move equivalent action. You can’t do it in a round during which you execute a full-attack.

Del casts arrow storm.
Del attacks Charmaine. 30 vs. AC 32. Deflected by armor.
Del attacks Thornbeak. 26 vs. AC 25. Hits. Ride 48 negates hit. Crowd attitude towards Charmaine improves 1 step.
Del attacks Peanut. 36 vs. AC 14. Hits. Deals 10 non-lethal damage. Peanut is unconscious.
Del attacks James. 35 vs. AC 34. Hits. James deflects the shot. Crowd attitude towards James improves 1 step.
Del attacks Rakesh. Targets image 3 of 4 (Rakesh is 4). 38 vs. AC 13. Hits. Image is destroyed. Crowd attitude towards Del worsens 1 step.
Del attacks Brunhilda. 36 vs. AC 18. Hits. Deals 19 non-lethal damage.
Del attacks Yarden, attempting to disarm. 34 vs. 39. Fails.
Del attacks Spikey. 34 vs. AC 29. Hits. Deals 12 non-lethal damage.
Del attacks Achiliene. 38 vs. AC 19 (-2 stunned, no Dex, +4 prone). Hits. Deals 18 non-lethal damage.
Del attacks Coravel, attempting to disarm. 27 vs. 38. Fails.
Del attacks Elgin. 39 vs. AC 23 (+4 cover). Hits. Deals 20 non-lethal damage.
Del attacks Groden. 29 vs. AC 30 (+4 cover). Hits the wall.
Del attacks Foom. 35 vs. AC 34 (+4 prone). Hits. Foom deflects the shot. Crowd attitude towards Foom improves 1 step. Foom is now Appreciated.
Del attacks UrEssel. 37 vs. AC 21. Hits. Deals 16 non-lethal damage.
Crowd attitude toward Del improves 2 steps.
Fu steps to follow Yarden and attacks (scent allows him to know general direction, and then pin point Yarden’s direction). Concealment 40. Attack has a chance. 26 vs. AC 36. Deflected by armor.

Achiline’s stun wears off.
Foom stands from prone, provoking a AoOs from Brunhilda and Achiliene. Brunhilda attacks. 25 vs. AC 26 (-4 prone). Deflected by bracers. Achiliene has no weapons in hand and does not have Improved Unarmed Strike so his AoO would provoke an AoO of its own. As a result he doesn’t take it.
Foom stands from prone and moves, tumbling to avoid AoOs. Tumble DC 15 is automatic. Jump DCs 10 along the way to hop onto platforms are automatic.

Spikey moves and manifests greater concealing amorpha.

Brunhilda has 24 hours to post her round 4 action.

[Boomlaor]

Brunhilda hisses when Foom Fang Fing turns her attack aside and hurries out of range. She briefly laments leaving her rocks behind, but her rage burns on unassuaged, and through a haze of flame her vision lights on a new target. With a primal yell she slams into the smaller being before her, hurtling with him into the moat, the water around her hissing and boiling, and pushes him as far as she can.

[ooc: Bullrush Achiline into the moat, moving with him and pushing as far as possible {[roll0]+15} toward A-35 and then further east along the A row if possible. I'm not sure if a swim check would be needed, but if so {[roll1]+4}. Primary intent is to push far enough to get impress the crowd, so if she cannot push him that far in the water then she will push him horizontally along the C row instead, again moving with him and pushing as far as possible.]

[Black Plauge]

Brunhilda attempts to bull rush Achiliene. This provokes an AoO from Achiliene, but he is unarmed so any attack he makes would provoke an AoO. Thus he does not take it.
Brunhilda attempts to bull rush Achiliene. 18 vs. 12. Success. Achiliene is moved 5ft into the water. Brunhilda elects to follow and try to push him further (as her bull rush attempt is high enough to permit it). Swim 14 vs. DC 10. Success. Brunhilda is able to push Achiliene another 5' for a total of 10'. Crowd attitude towards Brunhilda improves 2 steps. Brunhilda is now appreciated (+1 morale bonus attacks and damage).

Achiliene, UrEssel, and James have 24 hours to post their round 5 action.

[Noocytx]

"Let's see how you handle this" With a quick arcane word, James unloads into his opponent in front of him, hoping to put his defensive enemy out of the grand melee.

OOC: Cast Wraithstrike (Swift). Use 5th level spell for Arcane Strike (Free). Spend one daily stunning attempt to cast an Empowered Scorching Ray on 2nd Attack.
Full Flurry Attack at Groden at +20/+20/+20/+15/+10. Stop attacking if Groden falls unconscious.
2d8+5d4 nonlethal damage on all attacks, and 12d6 Fire damage on 2nd attack
Rolls for attack in order: [roll0],[roll1],[roll2],[roll3],[roll4]
edit for clarification and rule verification

[Noocytx]

Not ready to lose an attack on any competitor, and not really trusting herself in the full battle of chaos that is going on, UrEssel tries to impress the crowd with her skill of dagger display once again.

OOC: Fly 10 ft up. Perform (Weapon Drill): [roll0]

[Black Plauge]

Oh! And we have our first casualty. Rakesh, "The Towering Inferno" has managed to put Gork out for the count.

While it is possible that one of the other gladiators might pity him enough to cast some healing magic on him, personally I can't see that happening.

Seven layers of Celestia! Some one consult with the druids, it appears to be raining arrows!

Sort of. Del just arrowstormed the entire arena. I'm willing to bet, though, that we won't be seeing that spell again. It won't be nearly as useful in the single pairings that make up most of the tournament.

It's still damned impressive.

Note: I neglected to take into account how Brunhilda’s Nimbus would react to the water.
Brunhilda Psicraft 10 vs. DC 21. Fails. Brunhilda’s Nimbus is suppressed.

Achiliene Swim DC 10 is automatic. Achiliene swims to exit the water, and moves. Since being in the water means that Achiliene has cover from any creature not under the effect of freedom of movement this does not provoke an AoO.

UrEssel moves and tries to impress the crowd with a Perform (weapon drill) check. 48 vs. DC 35. Success. Crowd attitude towards UrEssel improves 2 steps.

Wraithstrike expires.
James casts wraithstrike.
James attacks Groden, using arcane strike and channeling an empowered scorching ray. 26, 34, 22, & 25 vs. Touch AC 18. 4 hit. Deals 24, 28, & 18 non-lethal damage and 52 fire damage. Groden is unconcious.

Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, Coravel, Elgin, and Rakesh have until Monday to post their round 5 action. I will, however, still be checking over the holiday weekend. If all three post, I will update and move things forward to the next contestants. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh stands and raises his arms over his head shouting, "Towering Inferno!" He stalks quickly over between Foom and the Cloud before vaulting into a back flip, hoping to get high enough that the whole crowd can see him over Cloud. As he lands he whirls his spiked chain over his head with one hand. He points at Foom and calls out in a deep boom, "Foom Fang Fing," and then places his hand palm up and flicks his fingers twice (Matrix style). He grips his spiked chain in both hands, waiting for Foom's assault.

OOC: Stand up, move to H24. Jump +36 (+6 ranks +14 Str +2 synergy +16 movement -2 ACP) to impress the crowd. Dodge target is Foom.
Edit: Forgot about -2 to jump from armor check penalty. It's now included.

[Chris Chandler]

Elgin's form shifts into a myriad of duplicate forms as he moves quickly to the spiker and nods politely -

Try and keep your feet!

[Cast Mirror Image then move to P40, any AoO will be to trip and subsequent attacks for non-lethal damage]

[Tashalar]

What now... attack the wolf? Bah! Here I am, in everyone's sight and they once more stay away from me... well, they certainly know what's good for them!

Coravel looks around left and right and then seems to decide on a direction to go. Strolling alongside the cloud he suddenly does a forward flip to land gracefully on a platform near the center of the arena with both rapiers pointed outwards - one at the cloud and one in the direction of Elgin and Spikey. Then he straightens again, drops one rapier onto the platform and waits for an attack...

[Total defense as standard action. Move to N27 and then do a jump from N27 to N28 to impress the crowd (jump +43).]

[Black Plauge]

Coravel goes on full defense and moves. Jump 44 vs. DC 40. Success. Coravel lands on the platform and crowd attitude towards him improves 1 step.

Elgin casts mirror image and moves.

Rakesh stands and moves. Jump 42 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 1 step. Rakesh is now Liked (+2 morale bonus to attacks and damage).

Charmaine, Yarden, and The Cloud have 24 hours to post their round 5 action.

[generaljimX]

Her previous target brings up more of himself, and Charmaine is just not going to waste arrows on fakes. She spots what looks to be an easier target, and does what she does best....ride.

The halfling's hands move fluidly, notching another arrow, and taking aim. Her feet slip out of the sturups. With a push off of them, she stands in the saddle. So beautifully, so smooth. Charmaine arrives up on the saddle just in time to fire a full volley at her opponent. She slips back down, just in time to stop Thornbeak from going too far.

OOC: Move to 20' above D-E/10-11. Adjust final height to compensate going over the cloud, and not through it. If I can't manage over, the around. Use halfling outrider Stand on Mount ability; Ride +39. Full Attack on Foom Fang Fing; +25/+25/+20/+15/+10(2d6+2); +1 to hit and damage if within 30'. Thornbeak's dodge target is now UrEssel.

[Lord Twig]

Yarden grunts as the spiked chain rakes across his armor. The time for words done, he continues to attempt to pinpoint his target. His axe leaping out into the area he figures his opponent must be.

Full attack with Dwarven Waraxe. If Yarden can hear where Moniker is he will attack that square. Otherwise he attacks, 1-3 L20, 4-6 L21. [roll0], square first. Use Blind Fight to re-roll concealment miss chance if applicable. If the first attack hits he will continue to attack that square, if not he will switch to the opposite square. Again, if he hits he will continue to attack the same square, otherwise he will switch back to the other square. Same dodge opponent.

Listen roll: [roll1]
Attack rolls: [roll2], [roll3], [roll4], [roll5]
Concealment rolls (used in order): [roll6], [roll7], [roll8], [roll9], [roll10], [roll11], [roll12], [roll13]
Damage rolls: [roll14], [roll15], [roll16], [roll17],

[Lord Twig]

Yarden will take a 5' step to L20 since he now knows Moniker is in L21.

Didn't want to edit my previous post since it had rolls in it. :)

[Lune]

Not willing to risk more damage from the dwarf and being the cold minded opportunist that he is Moniker makes a decision as to his next move. Moniker moves to M24 drawing his bolas on the way. He attacks when he arrives using his sneak attack to maximum effect (including staggering strike) attempting to trip the dwarf. He attempts to remain stealthy along the way.

OOC: 1/2 movement for best results on hide/move silently to M24
draw bolas as a free action as part of a move
attack Yarden to initiate a trip attempt with a ranged touch attack
attack at +15, +5d6 sneak attack damage
Trip check at +16
free action to use Quick Reconnoiter to sense those around him: listen and spot at +18
Hide at 15, Move Silently at 23
Keeps Death's Grip in his off hand and switches it to both hands after throwing bolas as a free action
Any AoOs will be trip attempts as well

[Black Plauge]

Thornbeak moves. Charmaine attempts to stand on mount to attack without penalty and impress crowd. 59 vs. DCs 20 & 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Charmaine improves 1 step and she can attack without penalty.
Charmaine attacks Foom. 42, 37, 34, 34, & 25 vs. AC 30. 4 hit, 1 whiffs. Foom deflects the first shot, so only 3 get through. Deals 12, 9, & 9 damage. Crowd attitude towards Foom improves 1 step. Crowd attitude towards Charmaine worsens 1 step.
Thornbeak moves.

Yarden attempts to determine the Cloud’s location via sound. 6 vs. Move Silently 39. Fails.
Yarden attacks one of two squares randomly. His first attack is in the right square. Concealment 100. Misses (needed 50 or less). Re-roll for Blind-fight. Concealment 85. Misses. Yarden switches squares for his second attack. The Cloud is not in this square, attack automatically misses. Yarden switches squares again for his third attack. Concealment 20. Attack has a chance to hit. 33 vs. AC 25. Hits. Deals 17 damage. Yarden now knows which square the Cloud is in. Yarden steps, and makes his last attack against that square. Concealment 58. Misses. Re-roll for Blind-fight. Concealment 29. Attack has a chance to hit. 32 vs. AC 25. Hits. Deals 13 damage.

Note: The rules for the bolas don’t indicated any change from the normal rules for making a trip attempt. As a result, there is no damage dealt, as is normal for a trip attempt.
Moniker moves, drawing his bolas (concealment prevensts AoOs). Move Silently 35. Hide 34.
Moniker attacks Yarden with bolas, attempting to trip. 22 vs. Touch AC 22. Hits. 24 vs. 23. Success. Yarden is prone. Crowd attitude towards the Cloud improves 2 steps (Yarden is outside the cloud so the crowd can see him get tripped by the bolas).

Del, Foom, Spikey, and Brunhilda have 24 hours to post their round 5 action.

[Darius]

"Scary lady no longer on fire! Arrows from heaven! Dragon man wants to make friends! Foom say fie to you all! Behold my wasp technique!" foom enters into an array of ovements and the tattoo of a wasp on his shoulder suddenly illuminates and crawls along his skin.

"Sudden Flash of Sunset!"

Bamf! and the monk is gone.

Bamf! and he appears near the edge of the water, his outstretched fingers driving forward into an attack.

[OOC: Activate Wasp tattoo for haste effect. Use the Flash of Sunset feature of the Sun School to Abundant Step to C34, make a single attack against Brunhilda at +18 (normal attack +1 for haste +1 for morale), using stunning blow feature DC: 25 Fort. Damage is 2d8+5. All damage is non-lethal.]

[Boomlaor]

Brunhilda reaches out a long arm and grabs hold of Foom Fang Fing. Using him as a handhold, she drags herself up out of the water and re-adjusts her hold on him, immobilizing him. As she leaves the water, the flames once again burst forth from her body. A great gout of flame leaps forth and surrounds the monk momentarily.

"As it happens, the BEAUTIFUL lady is STILL on fire, and so are you!"

[ooc: perform the following attacks in order until each is successful. Grapple Foom Fang Fing, Pin Foom Fang Fing, grapple for damage (augmented by nimbus). Touch attack +26(14 bab, 11 str, 1morale), grapple +25(9 bab, 11 str, 1morale, 4powerbuild), grapple +20(4 bab, 11 str, 1 morale, 4powerbuild). Damage is 1d3+11 subdual + 4d6 fire
Melee touch attack [roll0]
grapple check to hold [roll1]
grapple check to pin [roll2]
grapple check to damage [roll3]
subdual damage [roll4]
fire damage [roll5]

I rolled assuming all of mine succeed, since you can't see the outcomes of rolls 'till the post is posted, hope it's not too confusing if some of them don't work out.]

[Tashalar]

Spikey looks as if confused for a moment at the arrival of the multiple Elgins... but then he nods as if to himself and suddenly jumps at the nearest reachable Elgin without another word.

[Full attack with haste and greater flurry: attacks at +18/+18/+18/+18/+13/+8; damage 2d10+5. Continue to make attacks until Elgin is subdued. When Spikey hits Elgin, he continues to attack the real Elgin if that is possible technically... if Elgin is not unconscious after his attacks, Spikey manifests Hustle defensively and move to I36, tumbling the first 10 feet of the way.

sorry for the uncreative move, but I lack the time atm...]

[Lord Twig]

"I think it is time for the crowd to see me," Del declares and tumbles out of the smoke. A quick jump and he is on a different platform in full view. "Hey Coravel! Did you drop something?" Del fires an arrow at the rapier in his main hand.

With a quick command Del calls Fu off of the dwarf.

Accelerated tumble [roll0] to P18 with a running jump [roll1] onto the platform. Attempt Ranged Disarm against Coravel [roll2].

Orders Fu to Defend as a free action.

Fu moves to O19/P20.

[Black Plauge]

Note: Coravel was shown in the wrong location on the most recent map. He’s actually in N28, which means that Del has to target him with a ranged disarm before moving, not after.
Del attempts a ranged disarm against Coravel. Since Coravel doesn’t threaten Del, there is no AoO. 42 vs. 46. Fails. Since Coravel doesn’t threaten Del he can’t do a reciprocal disarm.
Del moves, tumbling to impress the crowd and jumping up on a platform at the end. Tumble 38 vs. DC 40. Fails. Crowd is not impressed. Jump 28 vs. DC 20. Success.
Del orders Fu to Defend.
Fu moves.

Foom activates his Wasp Tattoo.
Foom uses Abundant Step and attacks (Flash of Sunset), attempting to stun. 1. Automatically misses. Crowd attitude towards Foom worsens 2 steps. Foom is no longer Appreciated.

Spikey attacks Elgin. First attack targets image 4 of 5 (Elgin is 5). 27 vs. AC 14. Hits. Image is destroyed. Crowd attitude toward Spikey worsens 1 step. Second attack targets image 2 of 4 (Elgin is 4). 34 vs. AC 14. Hits. Image is destroyed. Third attack targets image 2 of 3 (Elgin is 3). 1. Automatically misses. Crowd attitude towards Spikey worsens 2 steps. Fourth attack targets image 2 of 3 (Elgin is 3). 31 vs. AC 14. Hits. Image is destroyed. Fifth attack targets image 2 of 2 (Elgin is 2). 26 vs. AC 19. Hits. Deals 17 damage. Elgin is unconcious.

Brunhilda Swim 8 vs. DC 10. Fails. Brunhilda is off-balance.
Brunhilda attacks Foom, attempting to initiate a grapple. This provokes an AoO, but Brunhilda has cover, so Foom can’t take it. 36 vs. Touch AC 26. Hits. Grapple 32 vs. 34. Fails.
Brunhilda attacks Foom, attempting to initiate a grapple. As before, Foom can't take the AoO. 31-5 (second iterative attack)=26 vs. Touch AC 26. Hits. Grapple 41 vs. 40. Success. Brunhilda establishes a hold and deals 12 non-lethal damage but cannot move into Foom's space because of her failed Swim check (she cannot make any progress through the water). This causes the grapple to fail at this point.
Brunhilda attacks Foom, attempting to initiate a grapple. As before, Foom can't take the AoO. 19 vs. Touch AC 26. Misses.

Things are shaking up fast now. Competitors are starting to drop like flies.

It's not all that bad. Yarden was only tripped by the Cloud, no knocked out.

Yea, but there are still quite a few gladiators in trouble. Brunhilda, for instance, is all wet and flailing for purchase.

Luckily for Foom, but I think he's far happier to see her fire out at the moment.

Coravel, Grindle, Rakesh, and Charmaine have 24 hours to post their round 6 action.

[Tashalar]

As the arrow comes flying out of the Cloud, Corval barely manages to hold onto his rapier. How can he pinpoint me? How dare he strike at me from hiding? Deciding on Del as his designated opponent, Coravel begins to carefully maneuver around the cloud to see whether he might make him out...

[Total defense as a standard action. Move to S24 via S28. Dodge target is Del (not that this helps against Ranged Disarm ;) )]

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh growls in anger as Foom ignores his challenge. "No one ignores the Towering Inferno! You will learn this to your own peril*" Rakesh dashes back toward Foom, leaping over the Gork's fallen form. He strikes with his chain trying to drag Foom to the ground while at the same time delivering a hideous blow.

OOC:
*unless the rolls keep going like they have
Move to H29. Jump +36 (+6 ranks +14 Str +2 synergy +16 movement -2 ACP) to impress the crowd. Depending on jump roll, land (in order of preference) in E34, F33, F32. Move to E34. Spring attack trip on Foom with power attack 4 (to hit: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +2 morale -4 power attack = +28, trip check: +14 Str + 4 feat = +18, damage: 2d4 +1d6 +21 Str + 2 weapon +2 morale +8 power attack = 2d4+1d6+33 non-lethal). If counter tripped, Rakesh will not drop his weapon. Move after the attack. If he can move between the hedge at F36-37 and the wall at G35-H36, move to G36. If not, move to H34. Dodge target is Charmaine the strafing machine. Attacks of opportunity will be trip attempts with follow up for damage.
Edit: I'm not sure if flanking applies. If so, power attack for 2 more (total 6) for +4 more damage.

[Black Plauge]

Coravel goes on full defense and moves.

Grindle goes on full defense.

Rakesh moves, jumping to impress the crowd. Jump 47 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 1 step.
Rakesh attacks Foom, attempting to trip. 42 vs. Touch AC 26. Hits. 36 vs. 18. Success. Foom is prone. Rakesh gets a follow up attack. 43 vs. AC 27 (-4 prone). Hits. Deals 39 non-lethal damage. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 2 steps.
Rakesh moves. (Note: While Rakesh can move between the hedge and the wall, doing so requires squeezing and would cause Rakesh to exceed his movement limit.) Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 1 step.

Charmaine rides defensively.
Thornbeak moves.

Yarden, The Cloud, and Del have 24 hours to post their round 6 action.

[Lord Twig]

With a tremendous clanging of armor Yarden rolls to his feet. Once he is righted he slowly begins to move along the wall, his senses straining to detect any incoming attacks.

Yarden goes on full defense, stands from prone and 5' steps to M19 (or M20 if the wall prevents the former).

[Lune]

Moniker stands resolute within the Cloud of Death. Eyes still blazing on his target he begings to move silently like a beast stalking his prey and draws a potion from his belt and drinks it. Switching his weapon back to two hands he now envelopes the dwarf in his cloud again. He stands likely closer than the dwarf knows.

OOC:
Switch Death's Embrace to one hand as a free action
Draw enlarge person potion as a free action as part of a move from his belt
Drink potion as a standard action
Switch Death's Embrace back to two hands as a free action
End move with bottom left of Moniker being at M22
Move Silently +22, Hide +14
Quick Reconoiter to see if he notices any other foes as a free action - Listen +18
Power attack set at -2

Goal is to be within 10' (preferably within 5') of Yarden for next round.
All AoO will be trip attempts.
edit: Current trip check should be: 24 (+12 Str +2 armbands +4 Imp. Trip +2 Trip attack +4 Size)
also corrected Move Silently and Hide checks to reflect new size

[Lord Twig]

Del sees that Coravel still has an annoyingly strong grip on his weapon, and he is even closing in on him. Ready to accept the challenge from his fellow Elf, Del steps forward.

"What do you use to hold on to that rapier? Sovereign glue?" Del asks perplexed. "Well, third times a charm!" His arm whips back, pulling another arrow, setting it to the string and firing in one smooth motion.

5' step to Q19 and full attack against Coravel, first shot to Disarm. If Del cannot step to Q19 because of the drop, move to R19 and single shot attempting to disarm. Disarm is to his primary weapon.

Order Fu to attack Coravel. Fu will move to S22/T23 (he should be able to make it even with intervening rubble I believe). If attack hits he will attempt to trip.

If anyone would draw an Attack of Opportunity from Del by trying to Disarm or Sunder his bow, Del will cast Arrow Mind as an immediate action and take the attack. Del will ignore AoOs for movement and such.

[Black Plauge]

Yarden goes on full defense, stands, and steps.

Note: Moniker is a monstrous humanoid and thus an invalid target for enlarge person. However, the desired effect can be obtained through a psionic tattoo of expansion. Since this is something I should have mentioned during character creation, I’ve made the necessary change.
The Cloud moves, attempting to do so stealthily. Move Silently 36. Hide 28.
The Cloud activates his psionic tattoo and grows to large size.

Note: Del can’t step off the platfrom as getting off safely requires a Jump check. Also, from the alternate step location, Del is too far away from Coravel to attempt a ranged disarm.
Del moves and attacks Coravel, attempting to disarm. 33 vs. 34. Fails.
Del orders Fu to attack Coravel.
Fu moves and attacks Coravel. 21 vs. AC 37. Whiffs. Crowd attitude towards Del worsens 1 step.

Note: Spikey’s action has already been PM’ed to me because Tashalar is out of town. I will use the PM’ed action if Tashalar does not post for himself.

[Darius]

Foom quickly gets to his feet and makes an attempt at attacking Brunhilda.
"Why dont you go bother someone else?!" he shouts at Rakesh. "I'm not bothering you!"


[OOC: Stand from prone, make one attack on Brunhida +17; 2d8+4; stunning blow attemp DC:25.]

[Boomlaor]

As Foom steps to his feet Brunhilda lashes out with her scythe at him. She pauses a moment to steady herself in the water and then directs her full fury at the monk.

[ooc: take the AoO with her scythe as FFF stands from prone. Swim check. If successful, then full attack using each of the following in order 'till successful: grapple FFF, pin FFF (deal nimbus damage?), deal grapple damage (augmented by nimbus). If the swim check is not successful, full attack FFF with scythe.

damage for scythe is 2d6+16
damage for grapple is 1d3+11 subdual
damage from nimbus is 4d6 fire

If at any time FFF drops unconscious, stop attacking]

edit: son of a...apparently the site rolling tool doesn't work well with previewing post for formating. Sorry BP, I had rolled for all these things to save you time, but the rolls all got lost in the preview function.

[Black Plauge]

Foom stands from prone, provoking an AoO from Brunhilda.
Brunhilda attacks Foom. 39 vs. AC 27. Hits. Deals 22 damage.
Foom stands from prone and attacks Brunhilda, attempting to stun. 22 vs. AC 15. Hits. Deals 7 damage. Brunhilda saves vs. Stun. Fort 28 vs. DC 25. Success. Brunhilda is not stunned.

Spikey turns around after taking Elgin down and scans his surroundings eager to finally take another gladiator into his crushing embrace. Finally his eyes focus on the slim human named Achillene...

[Manifest hustle as a free action (3 PPs), move to H40, full attack Achillene to grapple:
Touch attack unarmed: +18/+18/+18/+18/+13/+8 (although - greater flurry already does not count at this stage, does it? Just remove it if that is the case)
Grapple mod: +29 (see character sheet, +2 for higher STR)
Damage: 2d10+5 non-lethal +1d6 lethal]

What if Spikey would draw his kama along the way - could he make the two greater flurry attacks first and then follow up with four grapple attacks? If that would be possible, he'd do so...
=> Two trip attempts with kama (touch attacks +20/+20; trip mod: +9 (+5 STR, +4 impr. trip), drop weapon if counter-tripped) and then +18/+18/+13/+8 as touch attacks.

Spikey manifests hustle and moves with the extra move action.
Note: According to the FAQ, you only get as many grapple attacks in a round as your BAB iteratives would allow. It doesn’t, however, indicate that you can’t use the bonus attacks from other abilities to make normal attacks in addition to your grapple attacks.
Note 2: After reviewing the rules for flurry, Spikey cannot mix in non-monk weapons into a flurry attack and grappling is not a monk weapon. As a result, I'm eliminating the two trip attempts. My previous ruling about mixing extra attacks with grappling, however, still holds for fighting with two weapons.
Spikey attacks Achiline, attempting to grapple. 29 vs. Touch AC 30. Misses. 30 vs. Touch AC 30. Hits. Grapple 38 vs. 27. Success. Spikey establishes a grapple and moves into Achiline's space. Deals 13 non-lethal and 1 lethal damage. Grapple for damage. 28 vs. 26. Success. Deals 14 non-lethal and 1 lethal damage. Grapple for damage. 22 vs. 29. Fails.

Brunhilda Swim 26 vs. DC 10. Success.
Brunhilda attacks Foom, attempting to grapple. 37 vs. Touch AC 26. Hits. Grapple 42 vs. 21. Success. Brunhilda initiates a grapple. Deals 12 non-lethal damage. Brunhilda moves into Foom's space. Since she is now out of the water, her Nimbu is no longer suppressed. Since she is touching Foom, it deals damage to him. Nimbus deals 14 fire damage. Foom is unconcious.

[Tashalar]

Coravel glowers at Del as he once more tries to shoot his rapier out of his hands. His expression darkens even more as he is attacked by Del's wolf. "Del! Keep your wolf off me or else..." Coravel shouts in an angry voice.

Ignoring the wolf, he then zigzags between the crates, jumps up onto one and suddenly appears right next to Del delivering a strike to the shoulder with his rapier. Looking his fellow elf up and down after the attack, Coravel suddenly frowns. "Where have you left your weapons?!" Coravel only asks in confusion at not seeing Del's sword at his side.

Now he better have something to defend himself with or I... I...

[Tumble at normal speed (at -10; tumble +28) to Q22, then to R20, hop up to R19 and finally to Q18 to stand next to Del. Attack with rapier while fighting defensively and using combat expertise for -3: +17 base +1 haste +8 Dex +2 enhancement -4 fighting defensively -3 combat expertise = +21; damage: 1d6+5 +2d6 precise strike.
Dodge target is Del.]

[Black Plauge]

Well, we've got several gladiators apparently reassessing the situation.

With all the action that's been happening, that may be a good idea.

Yeah, but it's not very fun to watch. At least there are still some gladiators fighting out there.

The standings for the elimination rounds are sure to reflect that.

Achiliene tries to escape the grapple. 31 vs. 31. Tie goes to higher grapple mod. 13 vs. 29. Fails. Due to the reduction in BAB on iterative attacks, it is impossible for Achiliene's second or third attack to succeed (their bonuses are more than 20 less than Brunhilda's bonus).

UrEssel goes on full defense and moves.

James goes on full defense.

Note: Once again I failed to properly update the map. Del should be in R18. Coravel’s travel has been adjusted accordingly.
Coravel moves, tumbling to travel through Fu’s space and Jumping up onto a platform at the end. Tumble 34 vs. DC 20. Success. Jump 51 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Coravel improves 1 step.
Coravel attack Del, fighting defensively and using Combat Expertise. 37 vs. AC 24. Hits. Deals 15 damage and 1 Con damage.

[SlagMortar]

"Good show madam, though you should have stayed in the water." With a great growl, three Rakeshes swoop in an arc on Brunhilda like a pack of animals attacking their prey. There is, however, a certain cleverness to the way his chain whips around, pulling at her ankles and weapon, hoping to leave her in a most unfortnate state.

OOC:
Apology in advanced for all the conditions. :nervous:
Spring attack (route G34, F35, E35, E34) trip attack on Brunhilda (to hit: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +2 morale = +32 -- roll:[roll0], trip check: +14 Str + 4 feat = +18 -- roll:[roll1])
If trip succeeds then follow up with disarm (disarm check: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +2 morale +4 2hands +2 chain = +38 -- roll:[roll2]
If trip fails, counter trip roll: +14 Str -- roll:[roll3]
If disarm fails, counter disarm roll: +38 -- roll:[roll4]
Drop spiked chain if counter tripped, and continue moving drawing his other spiked chain (if possible).
If Brunhilda ends up tripped and Rakesh ends up with a weapon, end movement at D32. Otherwise, end movement at D31.

Attacks of Opportunity:
If Brunhilda is not prone and provokes, trip with follow up to disarm (if armed) or damage (if not).
If Brunhilda is prone and tries to retrieve her weapon, save attack for when she stands and disarm.
If Brunhilda is prone and stands unarmed, save attack for when she tries to retrieve her weapon and trip with follow up to damage.
Again, drop weapon to avoid countertrip.

Overall intent:
Try horribly complex combat maneuver. End up threatening Brunhilda if she is prone, or more than a 5' step away if she is not. End round with a weapon in hand if possible.

[generaljimX]

Charmaine decides upon firing at an opponent that she can hit. Regardless of the fact that there happens to be 3 of him. She moves closer, and fires off a volley into the melee.

[OOC: Move to C/D-24/25. Full attack at Rakesh. +26/+26/+21/+16/+11 (2d6+3, all subdual); Point Blank Shot included. Seeking ability of the bow insures that if I hit, I hit the real Rakesh. Thornbeak's dodge opponent is now Rakesh.]

[Black Plauge]

Grindle goes on full defense and moves.

Rakesh moves and attacks Brunhilda, attempting to trip. 34 vs. Touch AC 8. Hits. Trip 31 vs. 23. Success. Brunhild is prone. Rakesh gets a follow up attack, which he uses to attempt to disarm. 51 vs. 48 (+4 size +4 two-handed weapon -4 Prone). Success. Brunhilda is disarmed. Nimbus deals 11 fire damage to Rakesh, but he is immune to fire damage.
Rakesh moves. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh increases 5 steps (+2 trip, +2 disarm, +1 spring attack).

Note: A direct route to the desried location would be less distance than Thornbeak’s minimum forward movement required to stay aloft. As a result, an indirect route was used in order to prevent him from falling.
Also, regardless of route, Charmaine is too far away for Point Blank Shot bonuses to apply.
Charmaine directs Thornbeak to move. Associated Ride check is automatic.
Thornbeak moves.
Charmaine attacks Rakesh, spreading his attacks amongst the images. Image targeting order: 3, 1, 2 (Rakesh is 3). 30 vs. AC 30. Hits. Deals 10 non-lethal damage. 42 vs. AC 13. Hits. Image is destroyed. 31 vs. AC 13. Hits. Image is destroyed. Only the real Rakesh remains, last two attacks automatically target him. 27 & 28 vs. AC 30. Deflected by natural armor.

Yarden has 24 hours to post his round 7 action.

[Lord Twig]

Having escaped the crowd briefly Yarden sees it heading strait back at him. Regaining his feet he meets it head on, showing the crowd that that a rock can withstand a cloud. He steps forward and to the North, avoiding the rocks ahead of him and moving towards the small opening between the hedge and wall that he knows is there. His axe leaps out in front of him to be sure the way is clear.

Yarden 5' steps to L21 then performs a full attack using Combat Expertise for -5 to hit/+5 AC against M22, L22 and K22 in that order until he hits something, then he continues to attack that square. Continue to Dodge Moniker.

Attack rolls: [roll0], [roll1], [roll2], [roll3]
Concealment rolls: [roll4], [roll5], [roll6], [roll7], [roll8], [roll9], [roll10], [roll11]
Damage rolls: [roll12], [roll13], [roll14], [roll15]

[Black Plauge]

Yarden steps and attacks, hoping to find and hit The Cloud. First attack targets a square occupied by The Cloud. Concealment 81. Misses (needed to roll a 50 or lower). Blind-fight reroll 88. Misses. Second attack targets a square occupied by The Cloud. Concealment 62. Misses. Blind-fight reroll 79. Misses. Third attack targets an empty square. Automatically misses. Not knowing where The Cloud is, Yarden must choose randomly for his last attack. 1d3 with 1 being the square he attacked first: 1. Fourth attack targets a square occupied by The Cloud. Concealment 97. Misses. Blind-fight reroll 75. Misses.

[Lune]

Moniker's eyes glow red as he watches the dwarf before him swinging his weapon cautiously. Contempt builds in his heart for his opponent not giving it his all. Resentment overcomes him and he tosses Death's Grip to the ground and attempts to embrace his foe in a different kind of death.

OOC:
5' step away from Yarden to the east
Power attack set at -2
Free action: drop Death's Grip
Attempt to grapple Yarden (+21 touch attack, grapple check +27 (+12BAB +4 size +11 Str)) (should be no AoO as Yarden is not within reach of Moniker, but Moniker is within reach of Yarden) free attack as part of grapple with spiked gauntlets +20 1d4 20/x2 +17
Attempt to pin Yarden (grapple check +27) also make Yarden unable to speak if successful
Attempt to attack Yarden with masterwork spiked gauntlets +10 1d4 20/x2 +17

[Lord Twig]

"My weapons? I will go pick them up if you pick up yours," Del says as he tumbles away, "So drop it already!" Rolling down from the platforms and back to the North he attempts once again to dislodge a weapon from Coravel's grip. In Elven he calls to Fu, ordering his companion to defend him.

Half speed Tumble through Coravel's threatened squares([roll0]) to O19, then M18 and attempt Ranged Disarm ([roll1]). Order Fu to Defend him as a Free Action.

Fu will move to M16/N17 which, because of rubble and such, will probably be a full move for him.

[Tashalar]

Meanwhile, on the other side of the arena......

Even though he actually deemed the slight human unworthy of his attention, Spikey decided to follow through with his typical winning gesture to give the crowd a good show...

Pinning Achillene's arms behind his back, Spikey picks him up to hold him aloft for a second before slamming him down on the ground - with him on top, his spikes biting deep into Achillene's side. Spikey continues to squeeze Achillene until he succumbs and then gets up and nods to the nearest crowd but also already looking for the next victim.

[Grapple to pin, as soon as pinned, grapple to damage. Grapple mods (with haste action and without greater flurry): +29/+29/+24/+19; damage is 2d10+5]

[Boomlaor]

"Really, Rakesh, there are easier ways to get me flat on my back!" Brunhilda says with a wink. "Next time, just start by buying me a drink." With an eye wary to his spiked chain, she moves away from him.

[OOC Sorry for all the contingencies, I don't really know how Withdraw works

Withdraw by standing and moving to D-35, then F-35, then G-36 then G-38

If you can't combine standing and withdraw, then withdraw by crawling to C-35 then to B-36. If crawling on that diagonal would be more movement than Brunhilda gets then crawl to C-36

Primary intent under first scenario is to move away from Rakesh without provoking AoOs and end up 10 feet away from Spikey. Primary intent under second scenario is to move away from Rakesh without provoking AoOs and end up more than a 5' step from Rakesh.

Sorry for the double editing. I thought I had come up with a cool idea which would actually have done something offensively, but there was 1 too many move actions in it.]

[Black Plauge]

The Cloud steps and attacks Yarden, attempting to start a grapple. No AoO due because Yarden doesn’t threaten The Cloud. 37 vs. Touch AC 21. Hits. Yarden elects to volunatrily fail the grapple check to establish the grapple. The Cloud and Yarden are grappling. Deals 19 non-lethal and 2 lethal damage.

The Cloud tries to pin Yarden. 35 vs. 35. Tie goes to higher modifier. 22 vs. 24. Fails.
The Cloud attacks Yarden with his spiked gauntlet. 18 vs. AC 36. Whiffs. Crowd can’t see it due to cloud, so attitude isn’t affected.

Del moves, tumbling to avoid AoOs. 19 vs. DC 15. Success.
Del attacks Coravel, attempting to disarm. 39 vs. 41. Fails.
Del orders Fu to defend.
Fu moves.

Brunhilda crawls away from Rakesh.

UrEssel, James, and Coravel have 24 hours to post their round 8 action.

Please note that the black circle marks the location of Moniker’s spiked chain. I’m currently having issues with my spiked chain symbol and can’t get it to insert into the map properly. If I get the bug worked out, I’ll change the symbol to the appropriate image.

Some more action, and another gladiator out of the match.

Yes, and the sounds from the cloud have changed as well. I'm not hearing the clang of metal on metal anymore. Instead it sounds more like a wrestling match.

Could be. Though why the Cloud would give up the advantage that not being seen gives him is beyond me. I mean, if he is wrestling now, then his opponent certianly knows where he is.

But only one. If he's managed to get the upper hand in the wrestling, he could very well be done with it before any one else is brave enough to dare the smoke.

[Tashalar]

Anger builds in Coravel. He is hiding again! How... how dare he?! Coravel's eyes become slits and finally focus on Fu. I will make him face me... df

In a flurry of movements, Coravel moves and strikes at the wolf. Immediately he moves a few paces away again though. Show yourself, Del! Face me... or else... again he lets his voice trail off...

[Move/Tumble/Jump (whatever is necessary) via P15/O14 to N15, attack Fu fighting defensively and using combat expertise for -3 (attack at +20, damage is 3d6+7 +1 Con damage) and then springing away to L14.

Intent: Trying to do a spring attack.]

[SlagMortar]

"A drink would probably do it, though I'd need many more for myself and it would turn out worse than this is going."

Rakesh moves in close and swings with his full strength, backing away to keep Bruhilda from getting in a strike.

OOC:
Spring attack to C35. Attack once with full power attack (to hit: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +2 morale - 13 PA = +19 -- roll:, damage: 2d4 base +2 weapon +21 str +2 morale +1d6 merciful + 26 PA = 2d4+1d6+51 -- roll:[roll]2d4+1d6+51). Move to C34 standing over Brunhilda's weapon and completing the spring attack.
Attacks of opportunity will be taken for damage.
Edit: Dodge target is still Charmaine.

[Black Plauge]

UrEssel goes on full defense and moves.

James goes on full defense and does nothing.

Coravel moves and attacks Fu, using Combat Expertise. 24 vs. AC 22. Hits. Deals 22 damage and 1 Con damage.
Coravel moves. Crowd attitude towards Coravel improves 1 step.

Grindle goes on full defense and moves.

Note: I’ve been forgetting that in addition to her Nimbus DR 5/magic (which everyone can overcome almost all the time) Bruhilda also has DR 1/-. As a result, her non-lethal damage total is 4 lower than previously reported and her hp total is 1 higher.
Rakesh moves and attacks Brunhilda. 30 vs. AC 12. Hits. Deals 59 non-lethal damage. DR reduces to 58 non-lethal damage.
Rakesh moves. Crowd attitude towards Rakesh improves 1 step. Rakesh is now Beloved.

Charmaine and Yarden have 24 hours to post their round 8 action.

[Lord Twig]

"Well now, you are a bit larger than I expected," Yarden says loudly. "And you have a surprising number of limbs for a 'cloud'. Let's see how they bend."

As a free action Yarden will put his axe into his Glove of Storing. For his first attack Yarden will try to pin the Cloud (Grapple +25). If it succeeds he will prevent him from speaking and try to deal damage with his armor spikes (Grapple +20, +15, +10). If his first attack does not pin Cloud he will not try again, instead he will just attack with his armor spikes using them as a light weapon (To hit +21, +16, +11, damage 1d6+8).

Dodge opponent continues to be Cloud.

[generaljimX]

Continuing to stay mobile, the halfling and hippogriff land on a platform. Charmaine takes aim on the standing opponent of the melee, hoping her skill will hit even from this distance.

[OOC: Land on platform in J-K/25-26. Full attack on Rakesh. +25/+25/+20/+15/+10 (2d6+2, all subdual).]

[Black Plauge]

Charmaine directs Thornbeak to move.
Thornbeak moves.
Charmaine attacks Rakesh. 31, 44, 29, 23, & 13 vs. AC 30. Two hit, one deflected by natural armor, one deflected by armor, one whiffs. Deals 12 & 12 non-lethal damage. Crowd attitude towards Charmaine worsens 1 step.
Thronbeak moves.

Yarden stows his axe.
Yarden attempts to pin The Cloud. Grapple 31 vs. 32. Fails.
Yarden attacks The Cloud. 33, 34, & 30 vs. AC 23. All three hit. Deals 10, 14, & 9 damage.

[Lune]

"Gr!" Moniker utters as he thinks that his opponent is more pokey than he originally thought. Attempting to remove his opponent from himself he tries to move away.

OOC:
Opposed grapple check at +27 to end grapple.
If he escapes then move to stand on the platform to his SE if he can reach Death's Grip from there, if not move to E so that he is 10' away from Yarden and is in between the two platforms.
Move Silently (22) to get where I'm going, and Hide (14).
As a free action as part of his move draw his bolas into his right hand and javelin into his left.
(All attacks will be used to escape the grapple if it comes to it. If it takes more than one attack then he will escape the grapple to the E and 5' step to the E.)

[Lord Twig]

"I did not move into the cloud you fool!" Del shouts loudly as he bursts into view, "the cloud moved over me!" He runs, angling Northwest, before turning and shooting another arrow at Coravel's weapon. Fu continues to follow him.

Move to G13, jumping the debris in J15 to do so. Shoot arrow attempting a Ranged Disarm (again).

Command Fu to Stay.

[Tashalar]

Spikey takes a good look around before deciding on his next move. Seeing only Brunhilda and Rakesh near him, he winces slightly inwardly as the spiked chain crashes into the big woman. Better I prepare myself...

Stepping behind the hedge, Spikey reaches out for the last remnants of his power. Suddenly his head spikes can be seen as he peeks over the hedge.

[move to G37. Manifest Expansion (1PP) => all size-increase associated mods. AoO will be to trip with follow-up for damage (trip mod should be +14 now - +6 STR, +4 feat, +4 size)]

[Boomlaor]

"Really, Rakesh, that's quite the anger problem you have there. Did your mother not nurse you? I can be quite the hot little number for somone who knows how to use his hands...and as you can see, I'm also quite good with my hands." She sighs, knowing that the chances of her withstanding another blow like the last one are slim. With a wink she draws a weapon and manipulates it in a manner that is both martial and sultry at the same time.

[ooc draw shortspear from magic quiver and perform weapon drill [roll0] ]

[Black Plauge]

Note: I’ve been forgetting to list Moniker’s freedom of movement (cast in round 2) and his rage (entered in round 4) in his stat block. Thankfully, this oversight hasn’t effected anything so far as I can tell.
The Cloud tries to escape the grapple. Freedom of movement makes this automatic.
The Cloud moves, drawing his bolas as he goes.

Del moves, jumping over debris.
Del attacks Coravel, attempting to disarm. 43 vs. 24. Success. Coravel is disarmed. Crowd attitude towards Del improves 2 steps.
Fu moves, provoking an AoO from Coravel. Unfortunately Coravel is no longer armed.
Del orders Fu to stay.

Spikey moves and manifests expansion.

Brunhilda draws a weapon and attempts to impress the crowd with Perform (weapon drill). This provokes an AoO.
Rakesh attacks Brunhilda. 36 vs. AC 12. Hits. Deals 57 non-lethal damage. Brunhilda is unconcious.

UrEssel, James, and Coravel have 24 hours to post their round 9 action.

[Tashalar]

Coravel now glares at Del in silent rage. Now he puts his wolf between me and him... again!! Picking his rapier up with a flick of his wrist, he continues to glare at Del, but also taks the time to glance around the arena. You are on show... one wrong move and one of the others will strike you from behind... those... vipers! Coravel doesn't approach Del, but instead takes on a defensive stance, eying his surroundings warily.

[Pick up rapier as move action. Total Defense as standard action. Dodge target is now Yarden if he is outside the Cloud, still Del if inside the Cloud.]

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh looks at Brunhilda with contempt. "That's was just wrong," referring to her weapon drill. Now that Brunhilda has finally shut up, Rakesh sees Spikey's head rise over the hedge. He wants to teach that halfling archer a lesson now that she's nearer the ground, but the crowd might think he was running from the temp-giant. "Looks like its just you and me now. Your size will not save you. It's just more of me to hit." Rakesh streaks passed Spikey, striking out with his chain as he goes, and finds a spot in the arena where Spikey's size may be more bane than boon.

OOC: Start spring attack by moving to J36. Trip attack Spikey with 5 points power attack (concealment: [roll0], to hit: +13 BAB +14 Str +2 weapon +1 haste +3 morale -5 PA= +28: [roll1], trip check: +14 Str + 4 feat = +18[roll2]). Follow up for damage - attack roll: [roll3], damage: 2d4 base +2 weapon +21 str +3 morale +1d6 merciful + 10 PA = 2d4+1d6+36. If counter tripped, drop weapon and (if possible) draw masterworked spiked chain while finishing movement. Jump over the low wall at L36 to impress the crowd and continue to N36. Intent of final location is to force Spikey to squeeze on a grapple. Attacks of opportunity will be trip attempts. Dodge target is now Spikey.

Edit: Looks like concealment missed. Forgot to include that Rakesh's jump check is +36 (+6 ranks +14 Str +2 synergy +16 movement -2 ACP)

[Black Plauge]

UrEssel stays on full defense.

James stays on full defense.

Coravel picks up his rapier and goes on full defense.

Grindle goes on full defense and moves.

Rakesh moves and attacks Spikey. Concealment 89. Attack misses.

Charmaine and Yarden have 24 hours to post their round 9 action.

[Lord Twig]

Yarden grimaces as the man in the Cloud slips from his hands like he was holding water. Quickly switching gears Yarden falls back on his old strategy. His waraxe reappears in his hands as he moves to a more defensible position. Four quick strikes search for his enemy in the smoke.

Retrieve waraxe from glove of storing as a free action. 5' step to L22. Attack squares L23, M23, M22 and L23 using Combat Expertise for -5 to hit / +5 AC.

Dodge opponent still the Cloud of Death.

[Black Plauge]

Charmaine rides defensively.
Thornbeak goes on full defense.

Yarden draws his axe, steps, and attacks. All target squares are vacant so all attacks miss.

The Cloud, Del, and Spikey have 24 hours to post their round 9 action.

[Tashalar]

[I'll go ahead as their actions will most probably not influence Spikey's.]

Grinning as Rakesh's spiked chain swishes past, missing him barely, Spikey continues to follow Rakesh with his gaze. Tensing for a moment, the large Spiker then erupts into a jumping, rolling ball of spikes coming to a stand near Rakesh. Suddenly his hand darts out for Rakesh and pulls him close, locking him in a crunching embrace and skewering him on his spikes.

[Move: One step down to I37 (lower left). Then do a standing jump (double DC) to L34 (lower left) - 20 feet distance (jump mod now +53, trying to impress crowd). Then try to initiate grapple (10' reach) - touch attack at +18 (+12 BAB + 6 STR +1 haste -1 size), grapple mod is +34 (+12 BAB +6 STR, +4 feat, +4 size, +8 gloves), damage is 4d8+6 +1d8 (both have increased due to size increase 2d10 => 4d8 and 1d6 => 1d8).]

[Oh, and intent, obviously: Grapple Rakesh without him getting an AoO. If he needs to get nearer to him for some reason, Spikey will tumble.]

[Lune]

Moniker grabs his weapon that is lieing on the ground and refocuses himself. Concentrating his eyes no longer see red and he makes a focused attack on his foe.

OOC:
Free action - end rage
Swift action - cast wraithstrike
move action - pick up Death's Grip
standard action - attack Yarden with Death's Grip Power attacking for 6 (12 BAB +1 Magic +8 Str +1 Weapon Focus -1 size -6 Power Attack = +15) attack at +15 for 2d6 +31 (+16 Str +12 power attack +2 armbands +1 magic = 31).
5' step to the SE moving silently (22) and hiding (10)

Intent: Hit Yarden really hard and move to a space that will not allow him to 5' step and be within range to full attack Moniker.

[Black Plauge]

The Cloud ends his rage.
The Cloud casts wraithstrike
The Cloud picks up his spiked chain and attacks Yarden, power attacking for extra damage. 21 vs. Touch AC 27. Whiffs. Crowd can’t see it so crowd attitude is unaffected.
The Cloud steps, moving silenly and hiding. Move Silently 39, Hide 21. (Note: Due to the platforms around him, and the presense of a low wall in the target location, Moniker cannot take the 5' step indicated. However, a 5' step east accomplishes the same thing and is legal so the step has been adjusted.)

Del goes on full defense and moves.
Fu stays.

Spikey moves, jumping to impress the crowd and reach a desired location. Jump 64 vs. DC 40 & 50 respectively. Critical success to impress and success to reach desired location. Crowd attitude towards Spikey improves 2 steps. Spikey is now Appreciated (+1 morale bonus to hit and damage).
Spikey attacks Rakesh. 34 vs. Touch AC 15. Hits. Grapple 54 vs. 30. Success. Deals 22 damage. Spikey moves into Rakesh’s space.

UrEssel, James, & Coravel have 24 hours to post their round 10 action.

Things are begining to wind down, but that isn't stopping our gladiators from putting on a show.

Indeed, with just a few second left before the judges halt the match, those gladiators that are still up and at'em are looking for every edge that they can get.

[Tashalar]

Coravel looks after Del as he disappears behind the cloud. Looking to the right the outlines of the dwarf appear out of the other cloud. Squinting at the wolf for a second, Coravel shakes his head. It's almost over... time to greet the crowd one last time.

Raising both of his hands upwards for a moment to catch the crowd's attention (as if there is anything else of note to be seen in this arena), Coravel then erupts into a flurry of cartwheels. When he comes to a standstill again, a large 'U' can be seen scratched into the arena sands once more. Mouthing "Untouchable", Coravel then bows in the three directions away from the cloud, his attention in the meanwhile is still on possible assailants.

[Move action - tumble to impress crowd (tumble mod +28 - what I wrote is just the fluff part); total defense as standard action.]

[Black Plauge]

UrEssel stays on full defense.

James stays on full defense.

Coravel tumbles to impress the crowd. 41 vs. DC 40. Success. Crowd attitude towards Coravel improves 1 step.

[SlagMortar]

Rakesh marvels at the incredible grip shown by Spikey. He needs space to use his chain, but doesn't think he can get away. He growls, "Get off me!" before launching into a series of kicks, knees and punches with a bite thrown in for good measure.

OOC:

[Lord Twig]

Yarden steps back and is pleasantly surprised to find himself just outside of the cloud of smoke. He beats his axe on his shield signaling to the crowd that he is as strong as ever after his time in the so-called Cloud of Death. A cheer goes up from his fans, particularly from a vary loud dwarven contingent.

"So Mr. Cloud," Yarden shouts, "would you like to try again, or have you had enough?" He then hunkers down, his shield held in forward while the wall and hedge guard his flanks.

5' step to K22. Full defense. Dodge opponent still Moniker.

[Black Plauge]

Yarden steps and goes on full defense.

[Lune]

None would ever know that an evil grin passed the face of the being inside the Cloud of Death in silent responce to the dwarf's words. None need ever know. The Dwarf will never know that his foe will never have enough. He wont need to. Moniker's chest rises and falls heavily as he moves in on the dwarf like a spectre of death...

OOC:
5' step back to the west to close within 10' from Yarden moving silently (22) and hiding (10)
Full attack on Yarden with Death's Grip with Flurry, power attacking for -2
(12 BAB +1 Magic +8 Str +1 Weapon Focus -1 size -2 Power Attack -2 flurry = +17) +17/+17/+12/+7 to attack, 2d6 + 23 damage (+16 Str +4 power attack +2 armbands +1 magic = 23)
Each attack will be a trip attack until he succeeds
Trip check: 20 (+8 Str +2 armbands +4 Imp. Trip +2 Trip attack +4 size) vs. Yarden's trip check: 13 (+9 Str +4 Stability) (unless I missed something?)
If he fails the check he will drop Death's Grip and continue his full attack with his masterwork spiked gauntlet.
If he happens to kill Yarden (not likely) then his remaining attacks will go onto the nearby hippogriff rider...they will be disarm attempts against his bow.

[Lord Twig]

What the heck am I doing? Del wonders to himself. He shakes off his temporary panic and runs back out toward Coravel. Catching the last part of his little stunt Del sees his sword held at his side and smiles. A perfect target. He takes aim, and fires...

Move to I12 and attempt Ranged Disarm against Coravel.

[Tashalar]

Spikey adjusts his hold and moves his body back and forth across Rakesh's while grinning grimly at him.

[Full grapple attack on little Rakesh: grapple mod is +34 (+12 BAB +6 STR, +4 feat, +4 size, +8 gloves), damage is 4d8+6 +1d8 +1 crowd attitude (both have increased due to size increase 2d10 => 4d8 and 1d6 => 1d8)]

[Black Plauge]

The Cloud steps and attacks Yarden, power attacking for added damage and attempting to trip. 34 vs Touch AC 26. Hits. Trip 30 vs. 29. Success. Yarden is prone. The Cloud gets a follow up attack. 26 vs. AC 36 (-4 prone). Deflected by armor. Crowd cannot see the trip so crowd attitude is not effected.
The Cloud attacks Yarden, power attacking for added damage. 27, 21, & 18 vs. AC 36. One deflected by armor, one deflected by shield, one whiffs. Crowd cannot see the whiff so crowd attitude is not effected.

Del moves and attacks Coravel, attempting to disarm. 39 vs. 44. Fails.

Spikey grapples for damage. 35 vs. 31, 40 vs. 38, 32 vs. 39, & 27 vs. 35. Two deal damage, the others do not. Deals 23 & 32 damage.

Match is over.

And... Time. The judges have called for the end of the match.

Shame really, with few exceptions we were just begining to see the gladiators make a statement.

That and we've a few gladiators whose fans are seriously dissapointed. They didn't use their signature moves!

Well, hopefully they'll correct that starting tomorrow.
