[IC] Feast of Thanks Year Two

[Oath]

Ryine
The warrior looks at the giant turkey that has just appeared, he knows that he wants to take it out but he is not sure about who else is going to go charging in. Not wanting to attack in vain, he slices the closest turkey to him and steps a bit closer to the large target.

Spoiler

Stabs a turkey and steps towards Aria.

[Eireleen]

Branwen merely stared silently as her compatriots charged in. She couldn't help but feel as though she'd killed this particular turkey once before.

Well, it didn't matter. She had killed it once, and she could kill it again.

Striding forward, emerging from her location for the first time, she walked unfettered by the smaller turkeys, not into the giant turkey's reach, but instead into the nearby shadows. There, she faded, dissolving into the dim light.

Spoiler

Branwen moves Up, Up, Up-Right, Up-Right, Up-Right, Right, Right, Right, and uses Night Hunter

This provokes 2 AoOs but Branwen doesn't care.

[TheBigJon]

Rordan quickly follows up with his allies, summoning a celestial dog near the pair of turkeys next to him. The dog bites the turkey close to him, hoping to rip out a good chunk of it.

Dog:

He readies his crossbow and fires at the turkey behind the one his dog attacked.

[Linwelin]

Kin Sheel

Gods, that was nearly as embarrassing as the LAST time we fought the gobbles. However, the one he was attacking was taken down, which left Kin feeling unsatisfied. Holding back his usual urge to charge the big turkey, he looked over among his guildmates, and saw that a few were still pinned down, some of them faces he knew well. That's...Ryine and Sophie!? I gotta help them out!

With that, Kin rushes past the others, who were steadying themselves before the big guy reached them. "Sophie! Ryine! Hang on!" Kin shouts. It's all he manages before reaching two turkeys, blocking him from the one that was attacking them. His charge gives him enough momentum to whirl his giant blade, aiming for the neck. After that strike, he keeps spinning, making another step to slash the one beside the first.

Spoiler

Using one of my missed turns. I'll use my final one depending on how this goes.
Kin charges down 5 squares, attacks the first turkey with his charge bonus, then the one to the left regularly.

Attack 1:  1d20+6 : 5 + 6, total 11

Damage 1:  3d6+5 : 3, 6, 2 + 5, total 16

Attack 2:  1d20+4 : 20 + 4, total 24

Damage 2:  3d6+5 : 3, 5, 1 + 5, total 14

Vladimir Ludwik

Vladimir remained in his trance-like state, his movements nimble and efficient; there was no hesitation, nor breaks in the flow of his movements. He no longer had foes near him, but it didn't matter. He ran swiftly toward the giant turkey with both blades poised, and made a low whirl, slashing across the fowl with both sword and knife.

Spoiler

Just a heads up, I used my extra turn last time I posted, so Vlad has no missed turns.

Attack 1:  1d20+4 : 10 + 4, total 14

Damage 1:  1d6+2 : 4 + 2, total 6

Attack 2:  1d20+4 : 7 + 4, total 11

Damage 2:  1d4+2 : 1 + 2, total 3

[Linwelin]

Kin was frustrated that he missed his first target. Hell, I charged straight for it! Ah...I guess I was too obvious. Well at least I took ONE by surprise. With that, he turned his attention back to his first target, determined to make his next strike count.

Spoiler

Checked with Throndir about the missed target so I could get all the extra turns out of the way. Re-attacking the original target.

Attack:  1d20+4 : 16 + 4, total 20

Damage:  3d6+5 : 5, 2, 3 + 5, total 15

[Eireleen]

The girl in black moved unseen amongst the shadows. She waited patiently for her allies to move in, for the opportunity she needed. The moment Ryine charged in, she saw her window.

The girl dashed forward, unseen in the shades. It was time to end the rampant gobbling.

When she emerged from the shadows, her Kukri glowed with rage beyond the girl's own, finding its way into the giant Turkey's back twice in succession. And then, as soon as the judgement came, the girl in black faded into the shadows again.

It was as though the darkness itself sought the turkey's heart. The assailant was solid, yet formless - invisible, yet holding overwhelming presence. Strike after strike with impunity, until her target's heart was carved out.

Spoiler

Branwen moves right-right-right-right-right-right, flanking with Ryine. She is invisible and does not provoke AoOs during this time.

Rolled 1d20+15 : 18 + 15, total 33

Move Silently

As a swift action, she uses Bane on her Kukri to give it the 'Bane (Turkeys)' property. Then she attacks Dave with bonuses from concealment, flanking, and bane.

Rolled 1d20+14 : 10 + 14, total 24

Rolled 2d6 : 6, 5, total 11

Rolled 1d6 : 5, total 5

Precision damage

Rolled 1d6 : 5, total 5

Acid damage

Then, using one of her missed turns, she pronounces the Escape Judgement as a swift action and attacks again with the same bonuses.

Rolled 1d20+14 : 5 + 14, total 19

vs AC (not flatfooted, as she is no longer invisible)

As quickly as the giant turkey was summoned, the guild members had acted just as quickly if not more so. Each of them saved the best of their abilities for last, unleashing their powers in full swing. The fight had been tough, even Vladimir was knocked unconscious from one of the giant turkey's last spiteful attack against them. But they felled the beast. The turkeys continued to fight even after their giant was slain, but even they dropped one by one. Soon enough the whole courtyard was littered with piles of slain turkeys, with a large turkey right at the center; kind of like the centerpiece at a Thanksgiving table. New faces of the guild interacted with the ones from the year before. Some of them had even wanted to continue the fight, one particular dwarf and human sparring with each other, their thirst for battle not quite quenched.

The night was passing, but the guild was quicker to act on the preparations. Holding an outdoor feast, turkey was served all-around. Some had been previously burned and was drenched in inedible oil, but for the most part, the turkeys were edible. Vladimir, recovering as Sophie and Ludar tended to him. Chadra, though not as injured as methuselan, had more than few serious wounds. Ryine who no longer felt the adrenaline surging through his veins only begun to felt his pains more clearly. Kryas too, took his share of the beating, but the resilient bard managed, even showing his customary grin to those who asked. Soon the fire mages of the guild got to their cooking, and soon peace reigned upon Ternadan again. So once again, the day is saved! Thanks to...

... the Guild of Galas'nor.
