[dcc] PerrySimm says, "Log on."
Gunther has arrived.
Zander has arrived.
Bort has arrived.
[dcc] Zander asks, "We are pretty much unhurt after our last fight, right?"
[dcc] Bort says, "that sounds right"
[dcc] DM says, "Yep"
[dcc] Bort says, "except I am covered in spider guts from when it fell on me"
[dcc] Gunther says, "eew"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Spell wise, Markan used his summon and bless, and I've casted two mage armours?"
nothing_else has arrived.
Markan has arrived.
[dcc] Zander says (to Gunther), "I'm sure the milk of the virgin Mary is the real thing"
[dcc] Zander says, "ilac"
[dcc] DM says, "SPOILERS"
[dcc] Markan says, "I really think it's okay to spoil the Bible at this point."
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "I have that you've used three level 0 spells too"
[dcc] DM says, "Maybe on Detect Magics? That seems a little high"
[dcc] Zander says, "Oh, random detect magics, yeah"
[dcc] DM says, "So Zander has 3 level 0 and 3 level 1 spells left"
Recchi says, "Hi guys"
Bort says, "hey hey"
[dcc] DM says, "Markan has everything but Bless and Summon Monster I"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "the ending's a total deus ex machina."
[dcc] Zander asks, "Which is hmm, CLW and OBSCURING MIST?"
[dcc] DM says, "Those are his level 1 spells left, yeah"
[dcc] DM says, "He also has four level 0s"
[dcc] Markan says, "Also, Guidance and Read Magic."
[dcc] DM says, "Guidance x2, Read Magic, Resistance"
[dcc] Markan says, "Right."
[dcc] DM says, "Looks like everyone's connected to the map except Plot"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Hmm, does Guidance stack with itself?"
[dcc] DM says, "and everyone's actually in the room"
[dcc] Zander says, "I presume not"
[dcc] Plot says, "Should be connected in sec, I hope"
[dcc] DM | Multiple competence bonuses don't stack
[dcc] DM says, "So no"
[dcc] Bort says, "I think effects never stack with themselves unless it explicitly says they do"
[dcc] Plot exclaims, "Connected!"
[dcc] DM says, "Just as the clock strikes twelve!"
[dcc] Markan says, "Man, it's so creepy to me that the map only scrolls one way with the scroll wheel."
[dcc] DM says, "Both ways for me"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "Scroll is zoom for me"
[dcc] Markan asks, "Really?"
[dcc] DM says, "Oh, yeah, scroll is zoom"
[dcc] Markan says, "It zooms in with the wheel, but won't zoom out."
[dcc] Zander asks, "...?"
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "I don't understand the question"
[dcc] Markan exclaims, "It doesn't matter. Let's get DCCing!"
[dcc] DM says, "Anyway I hope you can zoom out by other means or else you will be stuck zoomed in"
[dcc] Zander says, "I'm just confused that Markan is experiencing such a weird error"
[dcc] Bort says, "hey, I thought we were seeing a beach at the end of last time"
[dcc] Plot exclaims, "ADENTURE!"
[dcc] Markan exclaims, "+V!"
DM says, "At our last cliffhanger, the raft had just drifted out into a larger (relatively) underground lake"
[dcc] Zander asks (of DM), "How long has it been? Is Mage armour still active?"
DM says, "The ceiling is at least 20 feet high"
[dcc] DM says, "Remind me when you cast it"
[dcc] Zander says, "I think while we were searching the previous map"
DM says, "The water is still here"
DM says, "I mean, over here, the water is still"
Bort says, "I guess we'll have to pole ourselves"
[dcc] Markan says, "TSD."
DM says, "You still have one pole, I think"
Plot says, "Yes, I threw mine away"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, you still have an hour or so"
Zander passes the pole to a more competent individual.
Zander says, "Here you go, Q."
[dcc] Zander asks, "or is Jota afk?"
[dcc] DM says, "Oh, Jota's idle"
[dcc] Markan says, "I'm a wizard, I have staff experience, I'll pole for a while."
[dcc] Markan says, "Er, cleric."
[dcc] DM says, "Let's see, is there anything else exciting I can tell you while Q wakes"
[dcc] Markan says, "THE PAIN OF LOSS JUST WON'T ABATE."
[dcc] Plot asks, "So right now, we just seem more lake, with no real end in sight, would you say?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah"
[dcc] Q says, "Sorry, got a phone call. I'm back."
[dcc] DM says, "All righty!"
DM says, "So here you are"
[dcc] Bort exclaims, "so start poling!"
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "You have the POLE"
Q exclaims, "Now I've got both poles!"
[dcc] Plot says (to Q), "aand you can take that to the LAKE"
[dcc] DM says, "I'll have to move you all by hand, unfortunately"
DM asks, "So, which way?"
Plot exclaims, "Straight!"
DM says, "You can tell by poling that the water gets deeper to the NW"
Q exclaims, "Let's go... left!"
Plot exclaims, "OK!"
[dcc] DM moves the raft a bit
Q pole pole pole
[dcc] Zander asks, "Hmm, maybe we should be heading towards the shallower end of the lake?"
DM says, "Suddenly a rain of crossbow bolts comes from the west"
DM says, "ROLL INITIATIVE"
[dcc] Zander says, "Since that might be ..."
Markan exclaims, "!"
[dcc] Zander says, "crap"
Q exclaims, "Oh no! This is really bad weather!"
Q rolls 1d20+0 (init): 9 | 9
Markan rolls 1d20+4: 13 | 17
[Crows-Nest] Bort says, "WE WILL FIGHT IN THE SHADE"
Zander rolls d20+5: 7 | 12
Bort rolls 1d20+3: 7 | 10
Plot rolls 1d20+2: 13 | 15
[Crows-Nest] Markan says, "THE SUN RISES HIGHER"
[Crows-Nest] Markan says, "ER, CRAWLS"
[dcc] DM does some rolling
DM says, "OK, let's see, one at Plot"
DM says, "flies well over his head"
DM says, "one at Q"
DM says, "right in her shoulder!"
DM says, "5 hp, down to 19"
Q exclaims, "If that was supposed to be a warning shot, you missed!"
DM says, "one at Markan"
Plot says, "heh"
[Crows-Nest] Markan says, "I had no idea dwarven shoulders were so sensitive."
DM says, "in the neck!!"
[Crows-Nest] Markan exclaims, "!!"
Zander says, "oh no"
DM rolls for critical
DM says, "Phew, just a graze"
[Crows-Nest] Markan asks, "Ow, what was that?"
DM says, "7 hp worth of graze, though"
Markan says, "Owwwww."
DM says, "and one more back at Plot"
DM says, "The Mage Armor slows it down enough to bounce harmlessly off Plot's ample belly"
Plot says, "Do you recall my HP total? I have 6 written down"
DM says, "14! You're fully healed"
DM says, "OK, surprise round over"
Plot says, "Ah! OK, thanks"
DM says, "KOBOLD-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Is Q hands someone one of his poles, can we move twice in a turn?"
DM says, "Let's see, that one fired at Markan last time, so he keeps firing"
DM says, "This shot is not so lucky and goes ka-POINK-thrummmmmmm into the raft"
DM says, "kobold-3 KOBOLD-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
DM says, "fires at Q again"
DM says, "hits the raft and thrumms in harmony with the first"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 MARKAN Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Markan says, "Give me just a second here."
[dcc] Markan says, "Okay, I'm going to try to shoot back at them with my crossbow."
[dcc] DM says, "Pick one"
[dcc] Markan says, "The closest one, I guess."
[dcc] DM says, "#1! OK, roll"
Markan rolls 1d20+1: 3 | 4
[dcc] Markan says, "Some fish just died."
DM says, "Oh, I should have pointed out the layout"
DM says, "They're on a ledge about 10 feet above water level"
Plot says, "Ah, I see them now"
DM says, "Rather than a beach or something"
[dcc] Markan says, "With that roll, they could be 10 inches in front of me and I still would have missed."
[dcc] Bort says, "oh hmm"
DM says, "So reaching them for melee could be problematic"
[dcc] Zander says, "hmm"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan PLOT kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Q says, "Aw, boo."
[dcc] Bort asks, "is there a beach? or would we have to scale the cliff somehow?"
[dcc] DM says (to Bort), "Not that you can see"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Can we throw Q?"
[dcc] Q says, "There goes my plan."
Plot says, "I have some bracers that I have never donned, so I would like to do that. Thing is, I don't know what AC bonus they give me."
[dcc] Q exclaims (at Zander), "Good idea!"
[dcc] Bort asks, "should we back up instead?"
DM says (to Plot), "They don't stack with your Mage Armor"
[dcc] Q says, "But I think I am heavy."
[dcc] Markan says (to Q), "We think you're heavy, too."
[dcc] Q asks, "What's the range on that kaleidoscope spell?"
[dcc] Zander says, "We could sneak in under obscuring mist, color spray, and kill with the longspear"
Plot asks, "Do they give an AC bonus of 4?"
DM says, "Just 1"
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "15ft"
[dcc] (from Q) Q says, "So throw Plot instead."
DM says, "and you got 4 from the Mage Armor"
[dcc] Q says (to Zander), "So that could work if we closed in."
Plot says, "OK, I will -"
Plot says, "just use dodge on kobold-1"
[dcc] Q says, "Of course, instead of a rain of crossbow bolts, we'd get a rain of kobolds."
[dcc] Zander says, "We still have 2 flasks of acid, and a bunch of flasks of oil"
Plot says, "I have no missile weapons, unfortunately"
[dcc] Bort says, "you could throw some oil at them, I guess"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan plot KOBOLD-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Bort says, "or spend a round preparing to do so or whatever"
DM says, "fires at Plot"
DM says, "misses and curses"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 ZANDER Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Zander asks, "guys, we need a plan?"
[dcc] Bort asks, "well, are we getting closer or going away?"
[dcc] Q says, "I'm currently in favor of the 'close in to color spray range'."
[dcc] Bort says, "ok, then we should drop prone"
[dcc] Q says, "And unless someone gives Q a good reason to do otherwise, that's probably what her turn will be spent on."
[dcc] DM says, "You can pole the raft about 10 feet a round"
[dcc] Bort says, "since that'll make it harder for them to hit us until we do"
[dcc] Markan asks (of DM), "Can we tell how deep the water is?"
[dcc] DM says, "It's about 10 feet here"
[dcc] Q says (to DM), "Ah. Huh. THat's not very far."
[dcc] Bort exclaims (at Q), "too bad we lost the other pole!"
[dcc] Zander says, "So 3 turns to reach them"
[dcc] Zander says, "We might have a faster battle if we just do a ranged slugout"
Q exclaims (at Plot), "In my pack! You can use my other pole! If you promise not to throw it at anyone!"
[dcc] Markan asks, "How long is a round again? Ten seconds?"
[dcc] Q says, "I do have ranged weapons, I guess."
[dcc] Q asks, "Did Plot hold his action or take it?"
[dcc] Plot says, "I won't throw it at anyone"
[dcc] DM says, "Plot dodged"
[dcc] Bort says, "6 seconds, I think"
[dcc] Plot says, "I'll grab the other pole next turn"
[dcc] Q asks (of Zander), "Did you have a ranged weapon? Or did you want a pole too?"
[dcc] DM says, "It's Zander's turn"
[dcc] Zander asks, "So we'd be moving at 20ft per turn?"
[dcc] Q says, "(Or did you have something else in mind you haven't mentioned yet?)"
Zander shoots at the nearest kobold with his xbow.
[dcc] DM says, "Uh, yeah, OK, with two poles you could do 20ft a round"
Zander rolls d20+2: 11 | 13
DM says, "It whistles over its head"
Zander drops prone.
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander BORT Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Q asks, "Whose idea was it to make kobolds so hard to hit?"
[dcc] Q asks, "Also, I assume being prone would interfere with poling, right?"
[dcc] DM says, "I'm afraid so"
Bort loads his crossbow and shoots at a kobold (with a -4 for firing past Q, I guess) and then drops prone
Bort rolls 1d20+0: 2 | 2
DM says, "I guess trying to fit all that activity in was a bit much"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort *Q* kobold-1"
[dcc] Q asks (of Bort), "Are they using me for cover?"
[dcc] Bort says, "it seems like it"
Q poles for all she's worth!
[dcc] DM says, "moves raft"
Q exclaims, "Get down here and fight like a dwarf, you kobold!"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Surely Q can duck out of the way of Bort and not interfere with shooting... How did we decide how that went?"
[dcc] Zander says, "I mean, the cover rules"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, I won't charge a -4"
[dcc] Bort says, "oh ok"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q KOBOLD-1"
[dcc] Zander says, "(Of course, it wouldn't have helped)"
[dcc] DM says, "She's not fighting or anything"
DM says, "fires at Plot"
DM says, "Oops, the Mage Armor didn't stop this one"
[dcc] Zander says (to Bort), "You've disconnected"
DM says, "5 hp, down to 9"
Plot exclaims, "Aaagghh!"
DM says, "ROUND TWO"
DM says, "KOBOLD-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Bort says, "thanks, I was just wondering about that"
DM says, "fires at Markan"
DM says, "and rolls a 1"
DM says, "kobold-3 KOBOLD-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
DM says, "fires at Q"
[dcc] Bort asks, "there?"
[dcc] Zander says, "yes"
DM says, "Man, a pretty good shot, but it hits the pole and glances away"
DM says, "What luck"
Zander says, "Anyway, nice of you guys to be my meat shield"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 MARKAN Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Markan asks, "How far could I swim in a turn?"
[dcc] DM says, "Let me look it up"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "I think your armour gives you a pretty bad penalty, though"
[dcc] DM says, "(Feel free to ask questions like that before your turn, too)"
[dcc] DM asks, "Do you have a swim skill?"
[dcc] Markan says (to DM), "Sorry, it didn't occur to me."
[dcc] DM | Make a Swim check once per round while you are in the water. Success means you may swim at up to one-half your speed (as a full-round action) or at one-quarter your speed (as a move action). If you fail by 4 or less, you make no progress through the water. If you fail by 5 or more, you go underwater.
[dcc] Markan says, "No swim skill."
[dcc] DM says, "That's fine, I just meant that if you get the idea before your turn, we can talk about it while other people are going"
[dcc] DM says, "So you'd have to make a strength check, minus your armor penalty, at a DC of 10"
[dcc] DM says, "And let's see, you're wearing scale mail, so that's -4"
[dcc] Markan says, "Uh... well, it was a good idea. :)"
[dcc] Markan says, "I'm just going to try shooting kobold #1 again."
[dcc] DM says, "Righto"
Markan rolls 1d20+1: 12 | 13
DM says, "The bolt bounces off its armor"
[dcc] Zander says, "Also, I think everyone except the polers should drop prone now"
[dcc] Markan asks, "I don't suppose it bounces into another kobold's eye?"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan PLOT kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
Plot exclaims, "I grab the other pole and start rowing!"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot KOBOLD-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
DM says, "fires at Plot"
DM says, "and misses wildly"
DM says, "I think maybe they're getting nervous"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 ZANDER Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Zander says, "ok"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Who's the nearest kobold shooting at?"
[dcc] DM says, "Kobold 1 is shooting at Plot"
[dcc] DM says, "2 Q, 3 Markan, 4 Plot"
Q exclaims, "You'd better turn nice real quick, kobolds, because we're coming to get you!"
Zander casts Daze on the nearest kobold
DM rolls a Will save
[dcc] Zander says, "(DC 14)"
DM says, "The kobold blinks and staggers a bit but then regains its footing"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander BORT Q kobold-1"
Bort loads and fires another crossbow bolt.
[dcc] Q says, "I wonder how hard it would be to hit a kobold with a grappling hook."
Bort rolls 1d20+4: 5 | 9
DM says, "Rar"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort *Q* kobold-1"
[dcc] Zander asks, "What is handing items to other PCs?"
[dcc] Zander asks, "a free action or a move action?"
[dcc] DM says, "A move action"

DM says, "fires at Markan"
Zander says, "I should start charging for my spells"
[dcc] Q says, "Yeah, I'm just aiming for color spray range."
DM says, "Ow, just gets him"
DM says, "1 point, down to 9"
[dcc] Markan says, "Consarn it."
[dcc] Q says, "So, as close to the kobolds as possible."
DM says, "kobold-3 KOBOLD-2 Markan Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Bort says, "you can have 10% of the hitpoints the mage armor saves people"
DM says, "hits Q"
DM says, "for 4 hp, down to 15"
[dcc] Markan asks, "Is someone aiming the raft toward the outcropping?"
[dcc] Zander asks, "What does it take to deploy a grappling hook?"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 MARKAN Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Bort asks, "aren't the kobolds going to unhook the hook as we try to climb up, though?"
[dcc] Bort says (to Markan), "Q is steering it over there"
[dcc] Markan asks, "Can I delay my turn until later? Or do I have to go now no matter what?"
[dcc] Bort says, "you can delay"
[dcc] DM says, "You can always delay your turn until later"
[dcc] Markan asks, "If I delay, then when will I go?"
[dcc] DM says, "Whenever you want"
[dcc] Bort says, "whenever you want"
[dcc] Bort says, "(ha ha, sorry)"
[dcc] Q says (to Bort), "My grappling hook question wasn't about throwing it at the cliff. It was about throwing it at the kobolds."
[dcc] Markan says, "If I can delay until after Q goes, I think that'd be great."
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 (Markan) PLOT kobold-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
[dcc] Q says, "I don't think you can undelay in the middle of another turn, but right before or after another turn is fine."
Plot says, "Yeah, I'm continuing to row."
[dcc] Zander says, "Alright"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 (Markan) Plot KOBOLD-4 Zander Bort Q kobold-1"
DM says, "fires at Plot"
DM says, "and misses again"
Plot exclaims, "Haw haw haw! Nice shot, Blinky!"
DM says, "Now that you are right underneath these kobolds, you can see that they're even more fucked up than the ones before"
Plot says, "Can you even hit the water with that thing or is that too tough?""
DM says, "They're entirely covered with scales"
Q exclaims, "I think we're getting closer to the badness!"
Zander says, "This seems ominous"
DM says, "Their heads have weird spiny growths"
[dcc] Bort says, "yeah, it suggests a sinister natural armor ability"
DM says, "Their fangs extend down almost past their jaws"
Zander exclaims, "You aren't in the SRD!"
[dcc] Q says, "I hope that when they start getting templated, their CR goes up."
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 (Markan) Plot kobold-4 ZANDER Bort Q kobold-1""
[dcc] Zander says, "ok"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Who can I catch in a color spray?"
[dcc] DM says, "If you want to Color Spray you can avoid Markan, since you're aiming up"
[dcc] Plot says, "Cool"
[dcc] DM says, "other than that just make your usual cone and see what it catches"
Zander passes his longspear to Q.
Zander then casts Color Spray
Q asks, "Bwuh?"
[dcc] DM says, "Hey look, you weren't going to catch Markan in it anyway"
[dcc] DM rolls some saving throws
[dcc] DM asks, "DC 15?"
[dcc] Zander says, "yes"
[dcc] Q says, "Cool, I was worried the height difference would screw with the range."
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, I am being nice that way"
[dcc] Q says, "Yay"
[dcc] Zander exclaims, "Thanks!"
DM says, "Kobold 1 throws up its arms and drops down out of sight"
DM says, "So does Kobol 2"
DM says, "Kobold 3 follows suit"
[dcc] Zander says, "wohoo"
[dcc] Plot exclaims (at Zander), "Excellent work!"
[dcc] Bort asks, "OR ARE THEY FAKING?"
Q exclaims, "It's almost just like MAGIC!"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 (Markan) Plot kobold-4 Zander BORT Q kobold-1""
Bort says, "I will fire at the fourth kobold"
Bort rolls 1d20+4: 4 | 8
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha ha"
[dcc] DM says, "Aw"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Can Q coup de grace them with the longspear?"
[dcc] Bort says, "the big downside to online gaming is you can't angrily switch to a new d20"
[dcc] DM says, "She can't even really see them"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh yeah, this thing has reach."
[dcc] DM says, "Ha ha ha"
[dcc] DM says, "Think about the geometry"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Hmm, no jutting heads?"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 (Markan) Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort *Q* kobold-1""
[dcc] DM says, "No"
[dcc] Q asks, "I can still reach the standing one though, right?"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Anyone got rope?"
[dcc] Bort says (to Zander), "of course"
[dcc] Plot exclaims, "Yes!"
[dcc] DM says (to Q), "He looks too far away"
[dcc] Zander says, "I think now is a good grapping time"
[dcc] Q says (to Zander), "THere's a grappling hook attached to the rope in my pack."
[dcc] Q says (to DM), "Even with a reach weapon? Bah."
[dcc] Zander asks (of Q), "Then use it?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, look at him, he's like 20 feet away"
[dcc] DM says, "and 10 feet up"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh yeah, forgot that he was on the end."
[dcc] Bort says, "yeah, but Q's no good at trig"
Q pulls out a hammer, sizes up the little kobold in the distance, and *phwing!*
Q rolls 1d20+2: 9 | 11
DM says, "The kobold dodges it"
[dcc] Zander asks, "um, guys, grapple?"
[dcc] Q exclaims, "There is a hook in my pack!"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Or are we going to wait until all of them are helpless or dead?"
DM says, "kobold-3 kobold-2 Plot kobold-4 Zander Bort Q MARKAN kobold-1"
DM says, "If you still want to go after Q"
[dcc] Q asks, "Also, if Plot is still poling, we can move into longspear range by my next turn, right?"
[dcc] Markan says, "Sorry, sorry, bad lag, hold on."
[dcc] DM says, "I still don't think you can really reach that well"
[dcc] DM says, "He's standing 10 feet above you"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh."
[dcc] Zander asks, "What if Q swaps places with Markan?"
[dcc] Q says, "I am not sure they are any less far above Markan."
[dcc] Markan asks, "What's the status of the kobolds now?"
[dcc] Q says, "Well, OK, *somewhat* less far."
[dcc] Q says, "But, y'know."
[dcc] Zander says, "the longspear is 10ft"
[dcc] DM says, "Three of them have dropped down out of sight"
[dcc] DM says, "The far one is still standing"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "123 are down, 4 is still plinking away"
[dcc] Markan says, "Well, I guess I'm going to shoot at the fourth one, then."
[dcc] DM says, "A hundred and twenty three are down? That's a pretty effective color spray"
Markan rolls 1d20+1: 9 | 10
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "Also, advise you drop prone afterwards"
[dcc] Q says, "And after seeing the first three go down, the other one is actively making the cliff more slippery so we can't climb up, IYKWIM."
DM says, "The bolt goes wide"

[dcc] Markan says, "They had doorbells back in the middle ages? The things you learn from D&D."
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "If you pole, we can kill the last one"
[dcc] Plot asks, "How?"
[dcc] Zander says, "and then the others are down for at least 4 turns"
[dcc] Plot asks, "Aren't we as close to the wall as we are going to get?"
[dcc] Zander says, "which should be enough for us to get up"
DM says, "NO SOLICITING"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "Q wants to move within 10 ft"
[dcc] Zander says, "of the last one"
[dcc] Zander says, "so he can longspear"
[dcc] Plot exclaims, "Oh, to the left!"
[dcc] Zander says, "yes"
[dcc] Plot says, "OK, if I can change my task, now that I understand, I will pole us to the left"
[dcc] Markan says (to DM), "I hope you said, 'I'm busying trying to kill five annoying dungeon delvers right now.'"
DM says, "Back"
[dcc] DM asks, "West?"
Plot says, "Yeah, to sum up, I am going to try to move the -- yse"
[dcc] Plot says, "Oh, and I want to put my dodge on kobold-4 now."
DM says, "[kobold-3] [kobold-2] Plot KOBOLD-4 Zander Bort Q Markan [kobold-1]"
[dcc] Q asks (of Zander), "#belated DIdn't the DM just say that even if we moved within 10ft, the angle was too bad for me to attack with a longspear anyway?"
[dcc] DM read that as 'get my dodge on'
[dcc] Zander asks, "oh did he?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, he'd basically have to be leaning over the edge for you to get an angle"
[dcc] DM says, "You could still throw something though"
[dcc] Q asks (of DM), "Hmm. Would he have to lean over to shoot at us, if we were that close?"
[dcc] DM says, "Not the ones farther away"
[dcc] DM says, "Anyway, the point is moot:"
[dcc] Q says, "(Also, if we are approaching, should we have been turning our long side to them, to get better -- ah.)"
DM says, "Kobold 4 backs up out of view"
[dcc] Zander exclaims, "coward!"
Q exclaims, "Stop that! Stop running away! It's never good when kobolds run away!"
Plot says, "(brb, if it is my turn and I am still idle, I prepare oil)"
[dcc] Zander asks, "I guess grapply time?"
[dcc] Bort says, "whoops, we're lame"
[dcc] Bort says, "Zander should have been using his wand"
DM says (to Plot), "Whoops, sure"
[dcc] Zander says, "doh"
[dcc] DM says (to Bort), "I was wondering if he was saving it again"
[dcc] DM says, "since that's what I was expecting too"
[dcc] Zander says, "I forgot I had it"
DM says, "OK, I'm taking us out of combat time for now"
DM says, "If we go back in it'll be with the same initiative, just to save time"
[dcc] Zander says, "hmm"
[dcc] Zander asks (of DM), "is that a good idea?"
Bort says, "ok, let's get up there"
[dcc] DM says, "Yes."
[dcc] Zander says, "Given that the helpless ones might wake up"
[dcc] Bort says, "not after we get up there, they won't"
[dcc] DM says, "Well in that case you'd better hurry up"
[dcc] Bort says (to Zander), "if you've got a hook, toss it up"
[dcc] DM says, "but I don't want to handle you getting up the cliff one at a time in initiative order"
Zander exclaims, "Grapplers, advance!"
[dcc] DM says, "so just do your stuff"
[dcc] Zander says, "I don't"
DM says, "Note that there is land to the west"
[dcc] Zander asks, "um, Q?"
Bort says, "let's go up on the ledge first"
Q pulls out her grappling hook and throws it at the cliff, oblivious to the land to the west.
Zander says, "Right"
DM says, "The hook lands and holds"
Zander watches for the return of the other kobold
Q climbs up Markan, then rope!
Q exclaims, "Upward and koboldward!"
DM says, "OK, Q gets up on the ledge"
DM says, "There are three unconscious kobolds lying there"
Zander follows.
Markan goes up as quickly as he can.
Zander murderises them.
Q asks, "That is my only rope! What will we tie up these kobolds with?"
Bort climbs up also
Q says, "...oh."
[dcc] Zander says, "with the crossbow, since it's the only weapon I have,"
[dcc] DM says, "Ow"
Zander asks (of Q), "Can I have my longspear back?"
Q exclaims, "Sure!"
Q gives the longspear back.
Zander jabs jabs jabs
Q says, "I like my scythe better."
Q collects the tossed hammer and returns it to her belt.
[dcc] Zander asks, "I assume I kill them all?"
Markan exclaims, "Wait!"
Q exclaims, "No! After them!"
Markan asks, "Can we tell if they're alive?"
Plot says, "I'll go up"
DM says, "Otherwise there is nothing special about the ledge"
Markan says, "If so, we shouldn't harm them."
DM says, "They are not alive anymore"
[dcc] Zander says, "Oh, yeah, I forgot, we wanted prisoners"
[dcc] Bort asks, "we did?"
Plot asks, "who killed them?"
Zander says, "Oops"
DM | Zander murderises them.
Q says, "Zander did. It is all my fault for giving him his longspear back."
[dcc] Bort says, "Plot is lawful evil, so he's all irritated Zander stole his kill"
[dcc] Plot says, "Basically, yeah"
[dcc] Plot says, "haha"
Zander says, "Man, I never signed up to that Geneva convention BS"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha ha"
Bort asks, "do we need to tie up the raft?"
Plot says, "Yeah, I'll do it with my rope"
Plot says, "OK"
Zander loots loots loots
[dcc] Zander asks, "Same sort of stuff as earlier?"
[dcc] Plot asks, "Yeah, do these guys have anything special?"
[dcc] DM says, "Oh yeah, they are all wearing the same gold pendants"
[dcc] Bort says, "I'm surprised Q isn't running after #4"
[dcc] Bort asks (of DM), "what, you mean .. THE CLAW?"
[dcc] DM says, "The very same"
Zander says, "Guess we are on the right tracks, then"
Zander reloads his xbow.
[dcc] Q exclaims (at Bort), "I was!"
DM says, "The passageway begins to slope downwards"
[dcc] Bort says, "so you are"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Not slippery, though, right?"
[dcc] DM says, "Not slippery enough to matter"
[dcc] Zander says, "ooh, a side passge"
[dcc] Bort asks, "wait, that connects to the beach, right?"
[dcc] Bort says, "ok, right"
DM says, "OK, so hold on a sec"
[dcc] Zander asks, "is anything on the beach?"
[dcc] DM says, "I am about to tell you"
[dcc] Q says, "It's hard to tell where it's walls, and where it's darkness."
[dcc] Zander says, "ok,. sorry"
[dcc] DM says, "Thus the 'hold on a sec'"
DM says, "So as you saw, that passageway sloped down to the 'beach'"
DM says, "not that there is any sand there"
DM says, "There are two more rafts here"
DM says, "and some poles"
DM says, "Other than that, nothing exciting"
[dcc] Bort says, "oh yeah, I was wondering how the kobolds got there if we stole their raft"
[dcc] Zander asks, "How big are these rafts?"
Q exclaims, "He went the other way!"
[dcc] DM says, "They look just like yours"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Can we estimate how many kobolds there are using this?"
[dcc] Markan says, "Er, wait, everyone."
[dcc] DM says, "10' x 15'"
[dcc] Markan says, "Something weird is going on with my computer... I have to reboot."
[dcc] Markan says, "I'll be right back."
[dcc] DM says, "OK"
Markan goes home.
[dcc] Zander says, "So, hmm, they can move 18 kobolds about at a time"
[dcc] DM says, "You estimate they could probably fit 10 kobolds or so on one of these"
[dcc] Zander says, "oh, 30"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Hmm, so possibly a total kobold population on up to 60, assuming that they expect to take two trips to move the whole lot?"
[dcc] Zander says, "We've killed maybe 20, so there's between 10 and 40 left..."
[dcc] Bort says, "I'm not sure it works like that"
[dcc] Zander says, "Ok, I see that my calculations are kinda useless"
[dcc] Bort says, "like, there might be some kobolds who never leave this part or the other part"
[dcc] Bort says, "also, you forgot to calculate that they might stack the kobolds multiple levels deep"
[dcc] Zander says (to Bort), "Right, that's why I arbitarily multiplied by 2"
[dcc] Zander says, "haha"
[dcc] Bort says, "or tow some behind the raft"
[dcc] DM says, "(I'm waiting until Markan comes back to expose more stuff on the map)"
[dcc] Zander asks, "What's our HPs?"
[dcc] DM says, "Bort 14/14 Q 15/24 Markan 9/17 Plot 9/14 Zander 7/7"
[dcc] Q says, "19"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh, I missed being hit again."
[dcc] DM says, "Yep"
Markan has arrived.
[dcc] Markan says, "Sorry about that, everyone."
[dcc] Markan says, "Give me just a minute to recap."
[dcc] DM says, "No prob"
[dcc] Zander says, "So we are almost back at level 1 again"
[dcc] DM says, "Don't forget to connect to the map again too"
[dcc] Markan says, "Yeah, I know."
Zander hands one of his acid flasks to Plot.
[dcc] Markan says, "Okay, all set, I think."
[dcc] Zander says, "wait"
DM says, "It starts sloping down again to the south"
[dcc] Zander asks, "maybe we should be searching for traps?"
[dcc] Zander says, "since they might trap the main entrance to their base"
[dcc] Q exclaims, "I found the last trap OK without help!"
DM says, "Oh, sorry, up"
DM says, "This map is really unclear"
DM says, "It's sloping up to the south"
Zander listens for trouble
Zander rolls d20+1: 2 | 3
Zander says, "Nope, nothing"
DM says, "Just the usual cave noises"
Q says (to Zander), " !"
Zander tries to spot danger.
Zander rolls d20+1: 5 | 6
Zander says, "None except from my companions."
DM says, "You do notice that the color of the rock is darkening, from gray to a deep black"
[dcc] Zander says, "oh hmm"
DM says, "as you continue on"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Are there kobold tracks?"
[dcc] DM says, "Roll Search if you want to look"
[dcc] Zander asks, "I don't have it. Does want to try?"
Bort says, "sure"
[dcc] Zander says, "er, does Bort"
Bort rolls 1d20+7: 7 | 14
DM says, "Looks like kobolds have passed this way, yeah"
DM says, "Probably not that recently, though"
[dcc] Zander says, "hmm"
Bort says, "hmm"
Bort says, "it seems like the guy might have gone the other way"
[dcc] Zander asks, "I guess our kobold went the other way?"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Do we want to follow?"
Bort asks, "do we want to backtrack?"
Bort says, "it's up to Q to charge the way"
[dcc] DM says, "I am only slowing down revealing the passageway because as soon as I do Q charges ahead, forcing me to reveal more"
[dcc] DM says, "so it's a positive feedback loop that would put you as far as you could move before anyone can decide what to do"
[dcc] Q says, "I have charged as far ahead as I can."
[dcc] DM says, "Exactly"
[dcc] Bort asks, "right, but do we want to backtrack to the other passage?"
[dcc] Q says, "Also, you mean before anyone but Q can decide what to do."
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "Do you want to check out the other branch, since the kobold went that way"
[dcc] Plot says, "We could split up and a couple of us could check out that other passage"
[dcc] DM says (to Plot), "Ha ha ha"
[dcc] Bort exclaims, "don't split the party!"
[dcc] Q says (to Zander), "If everyone else ran back, I would follow."
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "That would be an IMMENSELY BAD IDEA"
[dcc] Q says, "Otherwise, Q has momentum going."
[dcc] Bort says, "/recall 30"
[dcc] Bort says, "er"
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "You are the leader, it seems, weirdly"
[dcc] Q says, "Everyone is free to not follow."
[dcc] Bort says, "ok, it sounds like there's not enough momentum to switch, so let's keep going"
DM says, "The passageway continues to slope up, and the rock color continues to deepen to DARKEST BLACK"
Zander listens for danger again
Zander rolls d20+13: 12 | 25
[dcc] Zander says, "er"
[dcc] Zander says, "That was a 13"
[dcc] Bort says, "Zander's ears grew three sizes that day"
DM says, "Again, nothing out of the ordinary"
Q exclaims, "I bet these rocks are what dark looks like to humans!"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Do any of the dwarfs in the party know about dark rocks?"
[dcc] DM says, "OK, give me a minute"
[dcc] DM says, "I'm revealing passageway and typing here and setting up the next encounter"
[dcc] Q says, "I am certain Bort could Appraise them and give their approximate market value."
Bort says, "hunh, grade-5 class C anthracite"
Bort says, "you don't usually find that in this strata"
Zander touches the rock.
[dcc] Zander says, "in case it's dark with soot or something"
DM says, "Bort and Q know lots about cave rocks, and this seems sort of new to them"
DM says, "It's almost unnatural"
[dcc] Zander says, "crap"
Plot says, "I choose to disbelieve this illusion!""
[dcc] Zander asks, "Let's check out the other branch?"
[dcc] Zander says, "I've changed my mind"
DM says (to Plot), "Roll a Will saving throw"
Q exclaims, "These are really weird rocks!"
[dcc] Bort says, "c'mon, this is the exciting heart of it"
[dcc] Bort says, "surely you don't want to skip out"
Plot rolls 1d206: 112 | 112
[dcc] DM says, "Ha ha ha"
Plot rolls 1d20+6: 17 | 23
Bort exclaims, "wait, maybe this is class *E* anthracite! that would be crazy!"
DM says, "You suddenly achieve enlightment and see that all the world is illusion"
(From Markan) Plot has disconnected.
Plot exclaims, "Oh yeah!"
DM says, "But no, this rock is ALL TOO REAL"
Plot says, "Crap"
Zander asks, "Wait, is that a successful save or not?"
[Crows-Nest] Gunther says, "wait, if all the world is illusion EXCEPT the rock he can just walk around it"
Zander says, "Really, though, I think we should check the other branch"
DM says (to Zander), "Who knows"
[dcc] Zander says, "and go this way after we've rested"
Markan says, "I think we should keep going this way.y"
Markan says, "We're clearly on the right track."
[dcc] Zander says, "Since I smell something big"
[dcc] Markan exclaims, "Wait, he didn't make a smell check!"
[dcc] Zander says, "I mean, from the ahem minimap, the other passage seems to lead to a fairly small area"
[dcc] DM says, "Maybe it's time for a vote"
[dcc] Zander says, "So there can't be too many baddies there, besides the kobold that escaped that way"
[dcc] Zander says, "well, I vote backtrack"
Markan says, "I suggest we go ahead."
[dcc] Bort says, "I am mildly in favor of backtracking but don't care that much"
[dcc] DM says, "I can't stop you from metagaming but at least keep it out of your in-game rationales"
Plot says, "Sure, let's go ahead"
[dcc] Zander says, "sorry"
Plot says, "Just see where this path ends"
[dcc] Zander says, "Sigh"
[dcc] Bort says, "enh, we probably won't die"
[dcc] Bort says, "we'll just get transmuted into weird scaly things"
[dcc] Zander says, "we really needn't be taking such risks"
[dcc] Markan says (to Zander), "Yes, and you needn't be so contrary all the time and then pissy when you don't get your way."
[dcc] DM says, "Stop it, guys"
[dcc] Zander says, "Dude, chaotic neutral is all about being contrary"
[dcc] Q says, "No, it isn't."
[dcc] Zander says, "heh"
DM says, "Roll initiative"
Zander rolls d20+5: 7 | 12
Markan rolls 1d20+4: 11 | 15
Plot rolls 1d20+2: 20 | 22
Q rolls 1d20+0 (init): 11 | 11
Plot exclaims, "I feel faster!"
Bort rolls 1d20+3 (init): 8 | 11
DM does some rolling too
DM keeps rolling
[dcc] Zander says, "..."
DM says, "Right, OK"
[dcc] (from Gunther) DM PSYCH
[dcc] Markan says, "ITYM 'Sike.'"
DM says, "First of all, a bunch more crossbow bolts come raining down on you from the north"
Plot exclaims, "No!!"
Q exclaims, "I remember this from last time!"
DM says, "Also you see some more mutant kobolds"
[Crows-Nest] Gunther says, "go buy some damn shields already"
[Crows-Nest] Gunther says, "and only go in tortoise formation"
[Crows-Nest] Q says, "Actually, we do have a shield."
DM says, "Q gets hit twice"
[Crows-Nest] Q says, "And it's big enough for most of us to hide under at once."
[Crows-Nest] Gunther says, "then use it!"
[dcc] Zander says, "yeesh"
[Crows-Nest] Q exclaims, "It's back in town!"
DM says, "There were at least four bolts flying, hard to tell"
Bort says, "freaking kobolds"
Q exclaims, "I remember *this* from last time too!"
DM says, "7 hp damage, down to 8"
Q exclaims, "They are starting to hurt!"
DM says, "PLOT k1 k2 k3 Markan Zander Bort Q"
[dcc] Zander says, "I guess we get to charge this time"
Plot says, "I'm breaking faces"
DM says, "(There are obviously more than 3 of them so there's more to come)"
Plot says, "Oh -- ah"
Plot says, "Er"
DM says, "since these ones in front don't even have crossbows"
Plot says, "OH"
Plot says, "I will use my second move then"
[dcc] Bort says, "if people actually want to charge, you move in a straight line, 2x your speed, and make an attack at +2, with a -2 to your AC"
[dcc] Zander asks, "What do they have? spears or swords?"
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "Apparently they have light flails"
[dcc] DM says, "They're getting creative"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Zander says, "well, they can't set that against charge, at least"
[dcc] Bort says, "the armorer is like "it's this or some lucern hammers, guys""
[dcc] Bort says, "(whoops, lucerne)"
[dcc] Zander asks (of DM), "Do they have shields and heavy armour like before, then?"
Plot says, "OK, I am good"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "You can attack"
[dcc] Zander says, "if you charge. Though for an AC penalty"
[dcc] Plot says, "I moved twice - I don't think I can attack? Yeah, and if I charged I would be at risk for melee for more kobolds"
[dcc] Bort says, "enh, Q'll just charge on her turn instead"
[dcc] DM says (to Plot), "Well, they're going to swarm you on their turn anyway"
[dcc] Q asks, "I think charging is all about moving double speed and attacking, isn't it?"
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "Chain mail and large shields"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "You also get a +2 hit bonus for charging"
[dcc] Zander says, "So maybe it's worth it, to kill one maybe before he gets a chance to act"
[dcc] DM says, "I'm waiting for Plot's decision"
[dcc] Plot says, "Sorry"
[Crows-Nest] Bort says, "all I know is, whatever you guys are going to do, you'd better do it because markan casts obscuring mist"
[dcc] Plot says, "I'll go with this action for now"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "Also, don't forget to set dodge"
[dcc] Plot says, "I'll dodge kobold 2"
[dcc] Plot exclaims (at Zander), "Thanks!"
[dcc] Zander says, "crap, there's alot of them"
[dcc] Bort says, "I believe I speak for all of us when I say holy crapadoodle"
[dcc] Plot says, "OK, if I survive this I am running away, now that I see how many there are"
DM says, "Plot K1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Plot says, "Wow"
DM says, "k's are kobolds with flails, x's are kobolds with crossbows"
[dcc] Plot says, "I meant to say I dodge "kobold with crossbow #2""
[dcc] Zander asks, "um, maybe we should retreat to the turn, since then the xbowers can't shoot?"
DM says, "Kobold 1 runs up and attacks"
DM says, "but Plot dodges"
Plot exclaims, "Ooh! Ahh!!"
DM says, "Kobold 2 attacks"
[dcc] Bort says, "obscuring mist will in fact keep the crossbow guys from firing at us"
DM says, "and Plot's Mage Armor saves him again"
[dcc] Bort says, "but maybe we'd rather do something else"
DM says, "Kobold 3 runs up and attacks"
DM says, "and does hit"
DM says, "flailing his leg for 3 hp, down to 6/14"
Plot says, "Aoooooooooo!""
Plot says, "THE PAIN"
[dcc] Bort says, "flails at Plot"
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 MARKAN x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Markan says, "Just a second here."
[dcc] DM says, "Of course"
[dcc] Markan says, "Hrm, let's see."
[dcc] Markan asks, "How far can I move? Thirty feet?"
[dcc] DM says, "Ha ha ha"
[dcc] Bort says, "or 6 squares"
[dcc] Markan says, "Uh, I'm not sure why that's funny, but okay."
[dcc] Bort says, "(or twice that, if you don't want to do anything else)"
[dcc] DM | [dcc] DM | [dcc] DM | [dcc] DM | You can move up to 30' each move action, and you can take two move actions
[dcc] Zander says, "I think I know what's going to happen"
[dcc] Matthew says, "Okay, I moved, and I'm going to shoot the nearest kobold there."
[dcc] Zander says, "or not"
[dcc] DM says, "That's why :)"
[dcc] DM says, "OK, go for it"
[dcc] Markan says, "It would help if I were in the right window. :)"
Markan rolls 1d20+1: 15 | 16
DM asks, "Want to use an action point?"
[dcc] Markan says, "I don't think so."
DM says, "It misses"
[dcc] Zander says, "I'm guessing their AC is around 18-20"
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 Markan X4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Zander says, "Since that was what we were facing before"
[dcc] Q says, "I so wish those kobolds were lined up side to side rather than front to back."
DM says, "They all take shots at Plot as best they can"
Plot exclaims, "Aaagh!"
Plot says, "Pre-emptive aaagh!""
DM says, "and I'm afraid one of them got him in the side for 3 hp"
DM says, "down to 3/14"
[dcc] Q says (to Markav), "You can use the ruler tool to measure distances without moving your icon."
[dcc] Q says, "Er, Markan."
DM says, "Kobold 4 runs up and attacks"
Plot exclaims, "Medic! I am a powerhouse, but I need more strength!"
DM says, "and misses"
[dcc] Markan says, "I can never remember how to use the ruler."
[dcc] DM says, "Click on the ruler tool, then click and drag"
[dcc] Q says, "Click on the ruler in the tool bar (it's the third one from the left)."
DM says, "Kobolds 5 and 6 run towards Markan"
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 ZANDER Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Zander says, "ok"
Zander advances.
Zander fwooshes a color spray.
DM says, "You have 2 level 1 spells left (one after this)"
DM rolls some Will saves
DM says, "Unfortunately they are both still standing"
[dcc] Zander says, "crap"
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander BORT Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says, "curses"
[dcc] Q asks (of Bort), "If you advance, on your turn, can you make sure not to end up in a place that'd block my line-of-charge to the SW-most kobold?"
[dcc] Zander says, "I think it's time to start spamming action points now, guys"
[dcc] Bort says, "hmm"
Sargent has arrived.
[dcc] Bort says (to Zander), "you could spend one to get the spell back, I guess"
[dcc] Q says (to Bort), "Good thought."
[dcc] Zander says, "for extra attacks and stuff, at least"
[dcc] Zander says, "since I think we are in some danger here"
Bort steps to the side and loads and fires his crossbow.
Bort rolls 1d20+4: 11 | 15
Bort rolls 1d6: 6 | 6
[dcc] Bort says, "(adding AP)"
DM says, "I'm afraid that bounces off a shield"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh man."
[dcc] Zander asks, "crap, 21 AC?"
[dcc] Bort says, "eyi"
[dcc] Q says, "22 or more."
[dcc] DM says, "Oh, whoops"
[dcc] DM says, "I read it as 11+6, not 15+6"
[dcc] Bort says, "oh whew"
[dcc] Zander says (to DM), "Tricksey"
DM says, "It hits! Roll damage"
Bort rolls 1d8: 2 | 2
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Zander says, "ok, between 17 and 20"
[dcc] Bort says, "I DEMAND NEW IMAGINARY DICE"

[dcc] Plot says, "hahaha"
[dcc] Plot says, "I DEMAND THIS"
[dcc] Plot says, "TOO"
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort *Q* x1 x2 x3"
Q exclaims, "CHARGE!!! ! ! !!!"
Plot exclaims, "Oh yeah!"
Zander exclaims, "Go Q!"
Plot exclaims, "And now.... the PAIN!"
Q rolls 1d20+9: 9 | 18
Q rolls 2d4+6: 2 4 | 12
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "Flanking and charge bonus"
[dcc] DM asks, "Flanking?"
[dcc] Zander says, "I mean, in case that doesn't have it"
[dcc] Q says, "I added the charge bonus."
[dcc] Zander says, "if you are attacking kobold 1"
[dcc] DM asks, "Where do you get flanking from?"
[dcc] Bort says, "I'm not sure if she was attacking the one by Plot or not"
[dcc] Q asks, "Is flanking an attack bonus or an AC penalty?"
[dcc] DM says, "He's attacking kobold 5"
[dcc] DM says, "She"
[dcc] Bort says, "oh ok"
[dcc] Q says, "I am attacking Kobold Southwest."
[dcc] DM asks, "You have to go straight on a charge, right?"
[dcc] Bort says, "(I guess it has to be a straight-- yeah)"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Can he change his attack?"
DM says, "Anyway, the kobold ducks under Q's scythe"
[dcc] Q says, "Right, which is why I couldn't attack kobold 1."
[dcc] DM says, "She"
[dcc] Q asks, "18 missed?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yes"
[dcc] Q says, "Aw, man."
DM says, "Plot k1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q X1 x2 x3"
DM says, "A few more difficult potshots at Plot"
DM says, "No hits"
DM says, "PLOT k1 k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says, "hey, plot can do a flurry of blows"
Plot asks, "The red stuff is obscuring mist?"
[dcc] Zander says, "no"
DM says, "No, that was a color spray"
[dcc] Markan says, "Color spray."
Plot asks, "And I am sorry - the two inside, are they awake?"
[dcc] Bort says, "yes"
[dcc] Zander says, "All of them made their saves"
Plot says, "OK"
[dcc] Zander says, "attacking 1 would help though"
Plot says, "I am going to try a flurry on kobold 4 and kobold 3"
DM says, "OK, let's do kobold 4 first and see what happens"
DM says, "So there's a -1 penalty, I think"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "Since you have flanking on it, and it would help me with color spary later"
[dcc] Zander says, "(I mean, if you want that as your second target)"
Plot says (to Zander), "gotcha"
Plot rolls 1d20+4: 10 | 14
Plot says, "I'll use an action point"
DM says, "All righty"
Plot rolls 1d6: 2 | 2
Plot says, "Crap"
DM says, "Not enough, unfortunately"
DM asks, "Who's the second attack on?"
Plot says, "Kobold 1"
Plot rolls 1d20+4: 12 | 16
DM says, "Go for it"
Plot says, "ha"
Plot says, "OK, I'll try another AP"
Plot rolls 1d6: 6 | 6
DM says, "That's a hit!"
DM says, "(You also got a +2 from flanking)"
DM says, "Roll damage"
Plot rolls 1d6+3: 4 | 7
DM says, "One down, eleven to go!"
[dcc] Zander asks, "We should be auto-killing these guys on a hit, right?"
Plot says, ":/"
DM says, "Plot K2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
DM says, "They both attack Plot"
DM says, "and miss"
DM says, "Plot k2 k3 MARKAN x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
Plot says, "I would kill every one of these kobolds for a potion of healing"
[dcc] Markan says, "I'm moving forward and casting... that's right... OBSCURING MIST."
[dcc] Plot exclaims, "Hoooray!"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "If you move 1 right, you avoid having to make a concentration roll"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, if you are attackable by a kobold when you cast the spell, he'll get an AoO"
[dcc] Markan says, "DAMN it."
[dcc] DM says, "plus if he does damage you'll lose the spell"
[dcc] DM asks, "What's wrong?"
[dcc] Markan says, "Well I guess I'll not run up quite as far then."
[dcc] DM says, "Or you could make a concentration check to get the spell off without an AoO, but again, if you miss that you lose the spell"
[dcc] DM asks, "OK, do you want to put up the area of effect or should I?"
[dcc] Markan says, "I don't know how to put up the area of effect."
[dcc] DM says, "OK, then I will"
[dcc] DM says, "Let's see, 20 foot radius from the caster"
[dcc] Bort says, "that's a lotta mist"
[dcc] DM says, "There you go"
DM says, "Plot k2 k3 Markan X4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
DM says, "A few bolts go shooting wildly past you"
DM says, "Kobold 4 attacks Plot"
DM says, "and misses"
DM says, "Kobold 5 attacks Q"
DM says, "and misses"
DM says, "Kobold 6 attacks Plot"
DM says, "and misses"
Q exclaims (at Bort), "Plot's not dead yet!"
DM says, "Plot k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 ZANDER Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
Q exclaims, "And neither am I!"
Bort exclaims, "I'm glad to hear it!"
[dcc] Zander says, "hmm"
[dcc] Zander asks, "what's a concentration roll?"
[Crows-Nest] Sargent says, "I am imagining the kobolds dressed as Thing 1 and Thing 2 to make them easier to tell apart"
[dcc] Bort asks (of Zander), "maybe use the wand instead?"
[dcc] Q says, "It's a skill. Con-based."
[dcc] Zander asks, "I mean, what's the DC?"
[dcc] Alex says (to Zander), "Awwwk! Word on the street is that dc is a unix-based calculator."
[dcc] Zander says (to Bort), "I think you have to see the victim"
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "15 + spell level"
[dcc] Bort says, "you could move and then use the wand as a standard action"
[dcc] Q says (to Zander), "You can see them with a five-foot step."
[dcc] Bort says, "(I'm not sure what the odds are of killing a kobold with a magic missile)"
[dcc] Q says, "On either side of Markan."
[dcc] Zander says, "I'm going to try and take a risk here"
[dcc] Q says (to Bort), "It could likely put you halfway there."
[dcc] DM says, "That's still 10' away"
[dcc] Zander says, "I'm casting color spray"
[dcc] Zander says, "(using an AP so as not to use a slot)"
[dcc] DM says, "OK, that's your last level 1 spell"
[dcc] DM says, "Aha OK"
[dcc] DM says, "put it in a different color from red"
[dcc] Zander says, "Well, I'm waiting"
[dcc] DM asks, "Oh yeah, you're allowing the AoO?"
[dcc] Zander says, "to see if the kobold takes a swing at me"
[dcc] Zander says, "yes"
[dcc] DM says, "It swings indeed"
DM says, "and misses"
[dcc] Zander says, "haha"
[dcc] Bort says, "haw haw"
[dcc] Q says, "Woo"
Zander fwoosh.
[dcc] DM roll roll
DM says, "Two of them drop"
[dcc] Zander says, "You'd think these things would cause some cumulative mental damage"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
DM says, "Plot k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander BORT Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says, "well, they're going to have to go into Color-Sprayee's Anonymous"
Bort advances into the mist (double-move).
[dcc] Markan exclaims, "Unfortunately, Zander's the group leader!"
DM says, "Plot k2 k3 Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 k5 k6 Zander Bort *Q* x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says, "he's not just the president, he's also a member"
[dcc] Q says, "Hmm."
[dcc] Markan says, "Color Club for Adventurers."
[dcc] Bort says, "I guess this guy can't take an AoO on you"
[dcc] Bort says, "unless he has combat reflexes"
[dcc] Q asks, "Can I take a step NW and a step NE without getting an AoO?"
[dcc] Q says (to Bort), "Oh yeah, this is the one who attacked Zander."
[dcc] DM says, "Eh, sure"
[dcc] DM says, "Or, right"
Q advances and swings at kobold 2.
Q rolls 1d20+9: 19 | 28
[dcc] Zander says, "woo"
[dcc] Q says, "Now if that misses..."
DM asks, "Would you like to use an action point?"
[dcc] Zander says, "heh"
[dcc] Markan asks, "What's everyone's HP totals?"
Q exclaims, "I would not thank you Mr. DM sir!"
[dcc] Plot says, "I am at 3/14"
[dcc] DM says, "Bort 14/14 Q 8/24 Markan 9/17 Plot 3/14 Zander 7/7"
[dcc] Markan says, "Thanks."
Q rolls 2d4+6: 3 4 | 13
DM says, "It hits!!"
DM says, "I don't suppose you have Cleave"
Q carves the Christmas kobold.
Q continues on to the candied yams.
Q rolls 1d20+9: 15 | 24
Q rolls 2d4+6: 4 2 | 12
Plot says, "Oh ho ho"
[dcc] Zander says, "heh"
Q exclaims, "Dinner is SERVED!"
[dcc] Bort says, "yay Q"
DM says, "Man"
[dcc] Sargent says, "nicely done"
[dcc] Zander says, "things are looking good. We're all DOOOMED"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] Zander Bort Q X1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says, "I guess we don't really know what they're up to back there, but running seems like a safe guess"
[dcc] Zander says, "heh"
Q exclaims, "Noooo! Not agaaaaain!"
DM says, "PLOT [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
DM says, "(ROUND THREE)"
DM says, "Kobolds in square brackets are unconscious"
Plot says, "I am going to punch kobold 4 in the face"
[dcc] Bort says, "smack that guy"
[dcc] Bort says, "aw yeah"
DM asks, "Flurry or regular?"
Plot asks, "Can I flurry on the same guy?"
DM says, "Yep"
[Crows-Nest] Bort says, "in 4e the flurry of blows will be sponsored by Dairy Queen"
[Crows-Nest] (from Zander) DM asks, "Do you want a flake with that?"
Plot asks, "My attack roll is 1d20 + 3 for strength + 1 for BAB -1 for flurry, right? So + 3?"
DM says, "Sounds good"
Plot says, "OK"
Plot rolls 1d20+3: 7 | 10
Plot says, "argh"
Plot rolls 1d20+3: 6 | 9
Plot says, "..."
DM says, "You accidently pinch both his cheeks instead"
DM says, "Plot [k3] MARKAN x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
Plot says, "I'm like the creepy aunt for these kobolds"
DM says, "(These ones are just as nasty-looking as the ones on the ledge, btw)"
[dcc] Markan says, "I'm moving up to Plot and Cure Light Wounds-ing him."
[dcc] Bort says, "awright"
[dcc] DM says, "OK, that's your last level 1 spell"
[dcc] DM says, "1d8+3, I think, since you cast healing spells like a level 3 cleric due to your domain"
Markan rolls 1d8+3: 8 | 11
[dcc] Bort says, "sweet"
DM says, "Goodness"
DM says, "Back up to full health"
Markan exclaims, "NEUTRAL goodness!"
Plot exclaims, "Thank you, Markan!"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 K4 [k5] Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says (to Markan), "ha ha"
DM says, "attacks Plot"
DM says, "and hits! even with the obscuring mist"
DM says, "for 3 hp"
[Crows-Nest] Zander says, "phew"
DM says, "Good thing he was just healed!"
[dcc] Bort says, "well, ok, for a *moment* he was full"
Plot says, "That cleric saved my GODDAMNED life"
[dcc] Zander asks, "Ok, are we resting after this?"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] ZANDER Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Plot says (to Zander), "YES"
[dcc] Zander says, "ok, so I don't really need to use my wand then"
[dcc] Bort says, "nah"
[dcc] Bort says, "you can kill the unconscious guys"
[dcc] Q says, "Provided there are no kobolds just up the corridor from us, waiting for us to come out of the mist."
[dcc] Bort says, "before Markan gets a move in to stop you"
[dcc] Zander says, "since we can pretty much bash these guys away"
[dcc] Zander says, "oh yeah, maybe we want a prisoner this time"
[dcc] Q says, "Can't hurt."
[dcc] Q says, "Now that you speak draconic and all."
Zander moves forward beyond the mist to take a peek out
[dcc] Zander asks, "Any sign of the xbowers?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yep"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Q says, "Hee."
DM says, "OK, so that's not really the end of the passageway"
DM says, "I just didn't think you'd get this far"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha more"
[dcc] Zander says, "Oh you had such confidence in us"
DM says, "Also, the crossbowers in front had 'shoot at anyone stepping out of the mist' readied"
[dcc] Bort says, "he expected we'd do the sensible thing and turn around"
[dcc] Zander says, "ah"
[dcc] DM says, "Well, it turned out you plowed straight ahead"
DM asks (of Zander), "What's your AC, Mage Armor included?"
[dcc] Zander says, "15"
DM says, "15 I guess? OK"
DM says, "One hit"
DM says, "for 4 hp"
Zander says, "Hey ow"
DM says, "3/7"
DM says, "You have an action left"
[dcc] Zander asks, "So there's just 3 of them?"
[dcc] DM says, "Oh, sorry, 6"
Zander says, "Hi guys"
[dcc] Bort says, "the other 3 are on the part of the map that didn't get drawn yet"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Plot says, "brb, need coffee"
Zander shoots the remaining kobold flailer with the wand of magic missiles.
[dcc] Bort asks, "you're not going to step back into the mist?"
[dcc] Zander says, "oh yeah"
[dcc] DM says, "Ha ha"
[dcc] DM says, "That might be more prudent"
[dcc] Zander asks, "huh, wait, can I move back in as part of my move action, and still use the wand?"
[dcc] Bort says, "it's ok, I can use an action to drag your unconscious body back in"
[dcc] Zander says, "since I didn't move 30ft"
[dcc] Q says, "THat seems reasonable."
[dcc] DM says, "Well, you won't see the kobold anymore"
[dcc] DM says, "In fact you never really have"
[dcc] Bort asks, "if you step SE you will, though, won't you?"
[dcc] Zander asks, "oh, but I can move 5ft back in to complete my first action?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah, okay, fine"
[dcc] Zander says, "or ==Bort"
[dcc] DM says, "Let me see if using the wand provokes an AoO"
Zander casts magic missile! At the Darkne^H kobold
[dcc] DM says, "Nope"
DM says, "OK, roll damage"
[dcc] Zander asks, "What's the damage?"
[dcc] Q says, "(What was my HP? I forgot to record it after my last pair of hits.)"
[dcc] Zander asks, "1d4+1?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yes"
[dcc] DM says, "8/24"
Zander rolls 1d4+1: 2 | 3
DM says, "Ouchie"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] Zander BORT Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] DM says, "kobold 4 is in an unfortunate place"
Bort says, "I haven't made a melee attack in like five sessions, so I guess I will drop my crossbow, move and draw my urgrosh, and attack that guy"
[dcc] Zander says, "yay"
DM says, "Go nuts"
Bort says, "(doing two attacks)"
Bort rolls 1d20+1: 11 | 12
Bort rolls 1d20+1: 16 | 17
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Zander says, "Maybe you want AP on the second"
[dcc] Bort says, "sure, what the hell"
Bort rolls 1d6: 5 | 5
DM says, "You got him with the pointy end"
Bort rolls 1d61: 28 | 28
Bort rolls 1d6+1: 2 | 3
[dcc] Bort says, "(er)"
DM says, "and drop him!"
Zander sees Bort do something awesome, but isn't sure what.
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 k4 [k5] Zander Bort *Q* x1 x2 x3"
Bort exclaims (at Zander), "trust me, it was great!"
[dcc] Q asks (of Markan), "What is the likelihood that you will want to cast a cure spell on me on your next turn?"
[dcc] Bort says (to Q), "he's out"
[dcc] DM says (to Q), "He's out of level 1, but he could cast CMW"
[dcc] Bort says, "(of 1st-level spells)"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh, I missed that."
Bort says, "c'mon, Q, we have to retreat for now"
Bort says, "we can come back for these guys later"
Q exclaims, "But... there are only six to go! And they don't have melee weapons!"
Bort says, "I think you're kind of beaten up, though"
[dcc] Q asks, "Does everyone else want to not finish off the last few?"
Plot asks, "There isn't an unconscious but still living kobold left, is there?"
[dcc] Zander says, "I'm in favour of attacking"
DM says (to Plot), "There are all the crossbowmen to the north"
[dcc] Bort says (to Plot), "two of them"
[dcc] Zander says, "since I think we are close to winning"
DM says, "Oh, unconscious"
Plot says, "Yeah -- not sure if we killed all the ones next to us."
[dcc] Q exclaims, "If Zander wants to attack, then attack we shall!"
[dcc] Bort says (to Plot), "well, we talked about taking some prisoner"
DM says, "Two unconscious, everyone else is below 0 hp if not dead"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "I can deal with these ones"
[dcc] Q asks, "Also, did the kobolds who attacked Zander get moved in initiative order?"
Plot says, "If we are not still in combat, I would like to kill one of the remaining kobolds"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "We are still in combat, I think"
[dcc] Plot says, "OK"
Q steps out of the mist to where she can get a good view of the kobolds. Oh yeah, they're ready to be charged. And cloven.
[dcc] Plot says, "IMHO, what we do is up to our spell casters, because they are pretty much out of spells."
[dcc] Zander says (to Q), "Charging is a full round action"
[dcc] Q says, "While I've got a standard action left, I may as well toss a hammer too."
[dcc] Q says (to Zander), "Yes. It's a next-round action, since I couldn't start a charge in the mist."
[dcc] DM says, "Toss away"
Q rolls 1d20+2: 3 | 5
[dcc] DM says, "Uh huh"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 [k5] Zander Bort Q X1 x2 x3"
Q tosses a hammer. She doesn't really throw it or anything. Just tosses it, onto the ground, five feet in front of her.
DM says, "Three shots at Q"
Q exclaims, "I lay down the proverbial gauntlet!"
[dcc] Bort says, "hee hee"
DM says, "Yikes, two natural 20s"
[dcc] Markan exclaims, "!"
[dcc] Zander says, "............"
[dcc] Q says, "Oh dear."
DM says, "One was a critical"
DM says, "11 points total, dropping her to -3"
[dcc] Zander says, "holy crap"
[dcc] Q says, "Well, that plan didn't work."
DM says, "ROUND FOUR"
DM says, "PLOT [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 [k5] Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
Plot says, "I am going to kill the other two kobolds here which are coming back to consciousness shortly"
DM says, "OK, it's okay with me to coup de grace both of them this round"
[dcc] Zander says (to Plot), "I can deal with that"
[dcc] Zander says, "but it's up to you"
[dcc] Plot asks, "You have the wand of magic missiles, right?"
[dcc] Bort asks, "did someone want to keep one of them as a prisoner?"
[dcc] Plot says, "I can't tie one up without being an enormous target"
[dcc] Plot says, "More so than normal, I mean"
[dcc] Plot says, "So yeah, I will flurry of blows and deal death"
[dcc] Bort says, "well, we're all safe in the mist"
[dcc] Bort says, "for the minute"
[dcc] Bort says, "but ok, no big deal to me"
DM says, "Plot MARKAN x4 x5 x6 Zander Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
[dcc] Bort says (to Markan), "wait, don't leave the mist"
[dcc] Markan says, "I moved forward, and I'm shooting at one of them."
[dcc] DM asks, "Which?"
[Crows-Nest] Ghogg asks, "bork, how do I get to the location?"
[dcc] Markan says, "Number 2, I guess."
[Crows-Nest] DM says, "dtt"
[Crows-Nest] Bort says, "dtt"
[dcc] Plot says, "I mean, I don't have my rope (it's tied to the boat) I can't get to the crossbowmen without getting tagged and these guys re coming to life shortly. You guys all have missile weapon capability"
[dcc] Bort says, "you guys are dumb"
[dcc] Bort says, "we should run away"
[dcc] Bort says, "given that Q is our main fighter"
[dcc] DM says (to Bort), "Well, Q's down"
[dcc] Bort says, "yeah, we should drag Q back into the mist"
[dcc] DM says, "I guess you could, right"
[dcc] Zander says, "Yeah, it would be bad to abandon him"
[dcc] Bort says, "and Markan should cast cure minor wounds on her"
[dcc] Zander says, "we can't drag him fast enough"
[dcc] DM says (to Zander), "her"
[dcc] Zander says, "he"
[dcc] Zander says, "her"
[dcc] Bort says (to Zander), "the crossbow guys aren't going to follow us through the mist, probably"
[dcc] Q says, "I should warn you, if you heal Q without dragging her back, she will probably get up and throw a hammer this round."
[dcc] Zander asks, "Do we really want to retreat?"
[dcc] Zander says, "If anyone other than Bort wants to, I'll be ok with it"
Ghogg has arrived.
[dcc] (from Zander) Zander says, "I just hate Bort."
[dcc] Bort says, "hee hee"
[dcc] Plot says, "I don't think we can win without Q"
[dcc] Q says, "On the other hand, you can heal or drag her without leaving the mist yourselves."
[dcc] Zander asks (of DM), "What's the Xbower's armour?"
[dcc] DM says, "They're all wearing chain"
[dcc] Zander says, "hmm, chain now"
[dcc] Zander says, "So they aren't leather like before"
[dcc] Zander says, "Ok, I'm with Bort then"
[dcc] Zander says, "With retreating, that is"
[dcc] Zander says, "Since I don't think I can get close enough to color spray effectively"
[dcc] Q says, "I vote for Markan casting CMW on Q, and then everyone else exiting the mist so there are more people than just Q to shoot at."
[dcc] DM says, "I'm still waiting for Markan to roll so changing his action is fine"
[dcc] Markan says, "I guess I can do that."
[dcc] Zander says, "We can drag Q into the mist without leaving it ourselves"
[dcc] Markan asks, "It only cures 1HP, though... Will that be enough?"
[dcc] Bort says, "it'll be enough to stop the bleeding"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "It will stabilise him at least"
[dcc] Q asks, "Oh, wait. This is CmW, not CMW?"
[dcc] Q says, "Never mind."
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha"
[dcc] Bort says, "yes"
[dcc] Bort asks, "what, do you think we're something crazy like 3rd level?"
[dcc] Q says, "Forget I said anything."
[dcc] Zander asks, "Do we still have caltrops?"
[dcc] Bort says, "Plot always has caltrops"
[dcc] Bort says, "he produces them naturally from his body"
[dcc] Zander says, "...."
[dcc] Q exclaims, "Drag me away! We must flee!"
[dcc] Bort says (to Markan), "anyway, I would suggest you stay in the mist"
[dcc] Bort says, "since they will probably shoot you if you don't"
[dcc] Markan says, "I can't stay in the mist AND cast Cure Minor Wounds."
[dcc] Bort says, "ok, so delay"
[dcc] Zander says (to Markan), "You can cast it a later turn"
[dcc] Q says, "A) Sure you can. From SW of me."
[dcc] DM says, "You can cast it on an adjacent square"
[dcc] Bort says, "and I'll drag Q into the mist"
[dcc] Bort says, "oh, or that"
[dcc] Q says, "B) Forget CminorWounds -- I can probably stabilize in the next 7 rounds."
[dcc] Zander asks (of DM), "How fast can we drag?"
[dcc] DM says, "Uh"
[dcc] Zander asks, "5ft per turn?"
[dcc] DM says, "At least"
[dcc] Zander says, "er, move action"
[dcc] Bort says, "we can all take a limb"
[dcc] Bort says, "shotgun left leg"
[dcc] Q exclaims, "And I'll form the head!"
[dcc] Bort says, "ha ha ha ha"
[dcc] (from Zander) Bort says, "I'll chop with the Urgrosh"
[dcc] DM says, "So anyway"
[dcc] DM says, "It is still Markan's turn"
[dcc] Markan asks, "So, if I move where I am NOW, can I heal Q?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yes"
[dcc] Bort says, "awesome"
[dcc] Markan says, "Okay, so I'll just do that."
[dcc] DM says, "Just 1 point, but it'll stop her from bleeding to death"
[dcc] DM says, "OK!"
DM says, "Some more bolts go whistling uselessly over your heads"
DM says, "Plot [k3] Markan x4 x5 x6 [k5] ZANDER Bort Q x1 x2 x3"
Q's liver retracts back inside of her body cavity.
Zander drags Q along.
[dcc] Bort says, "hee hee ew"
DM says, "and she's at -2"
[Crows-Nest] Sargent says, "CminorWounds does great D&D-themed songs"
[Crows-Nest] Bort says, "ha ha"
DM says, "Oh, I guess Plot killed 3 and 5"
[dcc] Zander asks, "10ft if I do it for the full round, right?"
[dcc] DM says, "Sure"
[dcc] Zander says, "anyway, done"
DM says, "OK, you're back in the mist"
DM says, "It'll last another minute and a half or so"
[dcc] Bort asks, "which is, what, ~15 rounds?"
[dcc] DM says, "Yeah"
[dcc] Bort says, "ok, so we're retreating"
[dcc] Bort asks, "where are we retreating to? the ledge?"
[dcc] Zander says, "That seems good"
[dcc] Bort asks, "or just down the tunnel around the corner?"
[dcc] Zander says, "the ledge means our back to covered"
[dcc] Zander says, "*is"
[dcc] Zander says, "The beach is also good"
[dcc] Zander says, "imho"
[dcc] Q says, "I like the idea of moving the raft over to the beach and resting by/on it."
[dcc] Bort says, "ok"
[dcc] Q says, "Good makeshift bier if things go poorly for Q overnight."
[dcc] Bort says, "aww"
[dcc] DM says, "Ha ha aq"
[dcc] DM says, "aq"
[dcc] DM says, "ACK"
[dcc] DM says, "aw"
Bort says (to DM), "ok, so we're retreating to the beach and moving our raft over"
Bort asks, "are we still in initiative here?"
Zander says, "Thought I heard some sobbing for a moment"
DM says, "Gotcha"
DM says, "Nope"
Bort says, "(also I am retrieving my crossbow)"
Zander says (to Bort), "We can just nab another raft"
DM says, "I know it's short, but I think I'm going to call it here"
DM says, "Since if we kept going I might have to leave in the middle of the next encounter"
DM says, "and I also want to plan out what the kobolds are going to do now :)"
Plot says, "Haha"
Plot says, "Understood"
[dcc] Q says, "That seems worrisome."
Plot says, "Thanks once again, Dan"
[dcc] Zander says, "Hmm, maybe we can take all of their rafts"
K-Y has arrived.
[dcc] Zander says, "and rest out in the lake"
DM says, "and you got some good action in"
[dcc] Q says, "Since it suggests a possible encounter before we finish resting."
[dcc] Bort says (to Zander), "yeah, I was thinking we should try to control the rafts"
DM says, "also some bad action, I suppose"
Bort says, "you gotta take the good action with the bad action"
[dcc] DM says, "He who controls the rafts, controls the universe"
Q has learned one lesson: kobolds are *bad*.
DM says, "As long as we're all here let's see if we can figure out the next time"
Plot says, "Next Saturday is kind of bad for me"
[dcc] Q asks, "When are future Ussura games?"
Plot says, "But next Sunday is cool"
Bort says, "next sunday is ussura"
DM says, "My weekends look pretty free for the next month or so"
Plot says, "You know what, though, if Saturday works for everyone else I'll do it"
Bort says, "(but conceivably we could work around that)"
nothing_else goes home.
Q says, "Next Saturday is full for me."
DM says, "I'd rather skip a week anyway"
Bort says, "I'm out of town the weekend of the 5th/6th"
Markan says, "Yeah, I can't do next Saturday."
Q asks, "Anything scheduled for two weeks from today?"
Plot says, "I do believe I am free for the whole month of May."
DM says (to Q), "inky's out of town"
Q asks, "Er, I mean three weeks from today?"
Bort says, "otherwise I'm free"
Bort says (to Markan), "I seem to recall you had the fullest schedule, so maybe you should say when you're free in may"
DM says, "We could also try a weekday evening session some time if Fang's schedule is crazy enough"
Zander says, "I'm ok with whenever"
[dcc] Plot says, "Weekday evening would be cool, too"
Zander says, "And I mean absolutely whenever"
Markan says, "I can make weekday evenings work, generally, with advanced notice."
Zander says, "for a while at least"
Q says, "I would prefer to avoid weekdays if at all possible."
DM says, "OK"
DM asks, "So is the weekend of the 12th-13th possible?"
Q asks, "Was three weeks from today OK?"
Q says, "Timing."
Zander says, "Should be"
Q says, "Both of those days currently look good for me."
Bort says, "me also"
Markan says, "Looks fine for me."
DM asks, "Does ussura have a May schedule yet?"
Bort says, "no"
DM says, "I kind of prefer Saturdays to Sundays but I don't want to conflict"
Zander says, "I think we should pre-empt them for once"
Plot says, "Yeah that weekend is fine for me"
DM says, "Those Ussuran bastards"
Zander says, "So that mwhaha they will have to plan around us, instead of vice versa"
Q says, "Yeah, they're all schmucks anyway."
DM asks, "OK, say Saturday the 12th?"
Zander says, "Seems fine"
Q says, "I think that's OK."
Markan says, "Sure."
[dcc] * NewsBoy hollers, "Extra! Extra! DM has posted message 37, about 'Next session Saturday May 12', to the bulletin board! If you forget where this was posted, use bb search!"
Bort says, "cool"
Markan says, "Er..."
Markan says, "I don't want to be a jerk..."
Markan asks, "But is there any way, any way at all, we can do anything else today?"
DM says, "Not for me"
Markan says, "Hrm."
Fang exclaims, "we can play werewolf!"
DM says, "Sorry"
Markan says, "Okay. It was worth asking, at least."
Ghogg goes home.
Bort says, "ok then"
Bort says, "hooray game"
