Werewolf Warrior (10(14))
Human Sorceror (11)
Human Dread Necromancer/Lich (10/1)
They came up against an attacking force of Drow in the middle of the night just outside the Palace they Annexed in the town of Dyonnesia that they Have been working in for the latter half of their game.(picture shall be edited into the bottom of this page)
The attacking force consisted (initially) of:
12 Drow Sorceror
12 Drow Cleric
12 Drow Ranger (Huge Monstrous Spider companion)
Mutated Umberhulk (basically half way stats wise between an Umberhulk and the Gargantuan version - on the Umberhulks template)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the night you are awoken by the clash of a gong from outside... You hear some funny sounds coming from outside the windows...
Looking out you can see some large hulking figure crashing about in the gardens, and several militia men attempting to subdue it with nets and spears, but the spears simply shatter against its thick hide and the militia are crushed by its huge fists. A flash comes from the trees at the edge of the garden and several volleys of fire trace from them at high speed impacting with another guard Impacting in rapid succession leaving him a smouldering corpse on the ground.
Another figure is seen flitting past the Dread Necromancers window... agile, black figure, but with almost radiant white hair. Clearly skilled in acrobatics since this is not the ground floor... (Que "Ahh, Fuck!" from the werewolf OOC)
After looking out the window, Evictus reaches to his equipment and picks it up, strapping it on he dives out the window, drawing his sword and charging towards the Umberhulk, only to find himself getting trapped on a sheet of spider webbing laid out in the grass not 15 feet from his target.
Dreinell Jumps out his window and Bestows Curse on the Umberhulk, reducing its Strength by 6.
Edgar crashes through his bedroom window with flight on, and surveying the battlefield follows the entrapped Evictus's instructions and lands a Fireball beside the Monstrous spider lurking behind the Umberhulk - lighting up the scene for all to see. The Clerics spell resistance counters the Fireball and the Ranger evades all damage entirely, ducking behind the trunk of the tree beside him.
Round 1:
Evictus: Struggles with the webs to move but fails, so opts to unload his Double Barreled Cannon into the Umberhulks chest inflicting a good deal of damage, blowing a hole in its armoured chest.
Drow Sorceror: From the safety of the back ranks, sends forth an Ethereal Mage Hand and removes the Umberhulks curse, and casts a Quickened Scorching Ray at Dreinell, whose damage reduction reduces it to all but a smouldering tickle.
Drow Cleric: Steps forth, and placing a hand on the wounded Umberhulk "Heals" it back to full health.
Drow Ranger & Spider: The ranger Shouts in drow "Get the damned mage!" then releases a rapid-fire volley of Fire arrows into him, inflicting a hefty amount of damage, the spider then charges in, sinking in its fangs and draining the wizard down to 7 strength.
Dreinell: Upon seeing the Cleric and Sorceror undo all the offensive work from the party's initial assault, he Bestows Curse on the Cleric, stripping her Wisdom (and will save) by 6.
Umberhulk: Steps forward becoming trapped in the webbing itself, but being within reaching distance of Evictus, it starts trying to pummel him with its fists, inflicting some light damage.
Edgar: Following up on Dreinells Will save strip on the cleric, flys 5ft Up out of the spiders reach and launches a Phantasmal Killer towards the cleric... Bypassing its spell resistance, the cleric then Fails the lowered will save and Just fails his Constitution save. Bam, with a piercing screech her hands cover her face and she crumples onto the ground a lifeless heap.
Round 2:
Evictus: Unable to unroot his feet from the webbing, he proceeds to reload his cannon (Should have provoked an AOO but I forgot.)
Drow Sorceror: Launches a Fireball into the midst of the party, just missing the nearly-dead Edgar, but catching Dreinell, Evictus and the Umberhulk. The Umberhulk and Dreinell succeed in their reflex saves, taking half damage: another tickle to Dreinell.
Drow Ranger & Spider: The ranger opens fire on Dreinell, missing all but one shot which is mostly absorbed by his Lich powers. The Spider moves onto Evictus, but in the charge, Evictus draws his greatsword to defend himself and bringing it down, slices the spider cleanly in two. The words "charlie sheen" and "Winning" erupt from his lips as he then proceeds to cut the webbing from around his feet (in his next round).
Dreinell: Attempts to Phantasmal Killer the sorceror but fails to beat his spell resistance.
Umberhulk: Continues to pummel into evictus, inflicting a critical hit with its bite, and doing a significant amount of damage to him.
Edgar: Also attempts to Phantasmal Killed the drow sorceror - but the Sorceror succeedes on his will save and disbelieves - and then moves up behind Evictus to break line of sight with the Ranger.
Round 3:
Evictus: Cuts himself free from the webbing, 5 foot steps and finishes his turn with the remainder of his attacks on the Umberhulk (possibly an illegal move, but its a full round attack with a 5ft step in my book which I allow.)
Drow Sorceror: Launches another Fireball into the group, this time catching Edgar aswell. Edgar and Evictus make their reflex saves, and Edgar survives. Dreinell and the Umberhulk fail taking full damage, but the Fireball is underpowered and doesnt do too much damage
Drow Ranger: Launches another volley at Dreinell, inflicting a bit more damage this time, but still leaving him relatively intact, if pincushioned.
Dreinell: Casts CloudKill at the Sorceror - dropping his constitution by 2, reducing his health and Fort save
Edgar: Downs a potion of healing and moves out of the kill-zone of those fireballs.
Round 4:
Evictus: Hacks away at the umberhulk, but fails to land half his attacks and fails to kill it.
Drow Sorceror: Steps out of the Cloudkill and launches a volley of Scorching ray at Dreinell, peeling away a little more of his health.
Drow Ranger: Stepping back, fires another volley of arrows at edgar, but doesnt inflict much damage.
Dreinell: Phantasmal Killers the Umberhulk, dropping it there and then.
Edgar: Attempts to Phantasmal Killer the Sorceror again, once more failing to break though his defences.
