I'm not sure how the last round turned out....

Kelven is rushing to the platform, but detours to make a mad grab for Stinky Pete's staff, then angling back to the platform with the others. "You there, whose name I don't know! He's got more STUFF! Get it!" he says, to another Zero near him.
The one thing I'd ask for is a short "re-cap" at the top of each round, so the situation is all in one place, so to speak, instead of needing to scroll back through multiple posts to figure out who's where and what's what. :mrgreen:

I think everything's running well.

My group continues to attack the Kith they have already hit until he falls then move on to the next one.

Thelonius stabs at the Kith with a high pitched grunt

Roll 17 (damage 3)

Leibgot gives it a shot

Roll 8+2str=10 (damage 5+2=7)

Blackthorn swings his wood sword

Roll 19 (damage 6)
Duke continues to hone her leadership skills "keep at em' boys, we have 'em right where we want them!" she discreetly slips down on to the sinking platform leaving her "friends" behind

Oh, I just clarified that Stinky Pete's stuff was on the platform, so all four of your characters got on it. Sorry, I've been a little busy these past few days .

I have a major project due for grad school, so I'll need to focus on that for the weekend. I'll write up a turn summary after that and process next turn's actions. Have a great weekend!

Summary of Last Round
Qort is off-scene, by the drain-hole.

Kettering was speared through the lung and is dead. Stinky Pete was tackled onto the platform and had his spine severed.

Jingles, Nurzual and Brandybland leap down onto the platform, missing the Kith in the process.

Thelonious and Blackthorn missed the mark, and Duke "Led from behind."

Leibgott stabbed his Kith opponent in the shoulder, causing serious trauma.

Toby, Havarth, and Lucius are able to make it down to the lowering platform. It's getting crowded on this thing!

Kelven is able to reach the platform and grab Stinky Pete's Staff.


Positioning of the Enemy:
Two kith are standing on the north boundary of the platform's edge. One is lying prone on the platform, which is sinking ever deeper.



It's a new round, and we'll try the streamlined combat system. I'll pick up everyone's actions tonight around 9pm Eastern and process the events then.

I know some of you have already written out what you want to do. If your mind has changed at all in the past week you can update your actions for next turn ;).

My actions remain as declared before: Qort hanging by his fingers in the drain, everyone else pounding the kith in the lift. Nurzual's to hit was 17, resulting in 6 points of wooden spear damage. The others missed with an 8 and a 5.

Combat Round 2
Order: Kith, Bilgewiggler, Judge Blackthorn, Gnomeboy

The Kith on the lift struggles to stand up. He shakes off the fall, drawing a curved knife.

The two Kith still in the chamber attack: The first against Blackthorn:
20+2 = 22; Hit; 6+2 = 8 damage + crit.
The Kith expertly catches Leibgot in the neck with a spear jab. Leibgot falls to the floor, choking in his own blood.

The second against Thelonious: 10 + 2 = 12 Hit; 4+2 = 6 damage.
Thelonious doesn't fare much better, a spear striking his heart.

Nurzal strikes the staggering Kith in the side of the head. If Nurzal had a fake spear, it breaks now. The Kith looks dazed. Another blow should bring it down.

Duke slides down onto the descending platform. It's starting to get dark.

Blackthorn's wooden sword catches the already injured Kith. The blunt trauma sends the Kith to the floor. He's lost consciousness and may never come to after that blow. The sword cracks from impact.


Consider Gnomeboy's characters to be maneuvering defensively. I know Gnomeboy is busy this week; he can act in any round in which he is able to participate. Otherwise I'll just give his characters a defense bonus until he's back.

Please give your actions for Round Three

Blackthorn picks up Leibgotts flint spear and makes a last ditch attempt to kill the remaining Kith (if Blackthron isn't already, you know, dead.)

Attack 17 Damage (1d8) 6+4 (Burned 4 Luck)=10

(Might I suggest that Leibgott's cow Gertrude would be less than pleased to see her owner's violent death at the hands of the Grizzlynargle horde. Not sure if that means a panicked solo stampede back down the hall, a "bull" rush of the Kith, or just a single cow tear for Leib's as she waits in the corner to become a Kithburger)

Duke calls up to her comrade above, oblivious of his passing, "Leibgott, angel, be a dear, and toss down your flint and steel and poor Kezzlethump's torch; it's ever so dark down here."

(Not looking good, folks)

Dropping his shattered spear, Nurzual doffs his backpack and swings it at the Kith's head, hoping the length of chain inside will crush the foe's head like a cheap costume-jewelry bauble. He rolls an 8. Jingles swings her wooden longsword, rolling a 17 followed by 1d8 for 6 points of damage. Brandybland manages only a 9 to hit with her wooden spear.

In the drain, Qort wonders what could be taking his fellow escapees and hums softly to himself to quiet his nerves.

If there's an alien in range of the staff, Kelven swings for it. Naturally, he gets a natural 1. If he gets the chance, he jumps onto the platform.

The other three of my Zeroes are calling for everyone to join them on the lowering platform: "Hurry! — They'll kill you! — Potrzebie!"

Combat Round 3

The last Kith standing in the chamber tries to grab Blackthorn
Rolls 4 + 2 = 6.
He slides slides past you, leaving his back exposed!

The Kith on the platform swipes with his dagger at Havarth

Rolls 18 + 2 = 20
Rolls 1 + 2 = 3 damage.

Jingles smashes the Kith's knee. The creature howls in pain, but seems like he's still in fighting shape.

Blackthorn strikes Kith in the back, hitting what must be a vital organ for the beastly creature. He goes down as you wrench your spear out of him.

Kelven is already on the platform, so he takes a swing at the final Kith (who is on there with you). The swing goes wide,
and you accidentally hit another party member!
Nurzual takes one damage from the errant staff in the chaotic melee.


While Qort is by the grate, you notice two things:
1)What sounds like the echos of singing are coming from the grate.
2)You hear the footpads of a four-legged animal. A large four-legged beast is staggering down the ramp from the arena. It is the size and shape of a wolf, but its body is covered in sharp quills much like a porcupine. The beast winces as if in pain, and then bares its teeth.


What will the party do?

Is the lowering platform "arriving" anywhere? I mean, is there the opening at the roof of another level, or is it just a smooth-sided pit...?



Kelven goes immediately into "I would have hit the beast, if you hadn't gotten in the way!" mode, turning his failing into someone else's fault.

Harveth yelps in pain, but remains standing.


My four zeroes will attempt to bash the Kith on the platform to pieces... More than a little freaked-out, they are screaming and shouting and talking over each other.

Kelven gets a shocking natural 20! (21, Staff)
Harveth gets even more shocking natural 1!! (1, Club)
Toby gets a solid 13. (14, Longsword)
Lucius gets an underwhelming 7... (8, Flint dagger)

EDIT: Those are the natural rolls, I've put their modded rolls in parentheses.
