Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Xaanthios
As the shadows disperse from around his head, Xaanthios smiles a cold smile. A flick of his thought brings Avalon to this world once more standing tall before the dwarven mage, the crown that is its head spinning in wordless fury as both claws lash out to tear asunder the already beset dwarf.
A second flick of thought brings a gleaming wall of frigid cold into being, cutting across the room and enveloping the foolish mage. Waves of mind-numbing cold roll from the shimmering field and across the table and chairs, splashing against the car wall.
Spoiler: OoCSwift action expend focus to create Avalon once more at Q11.

Unarmored, even unskinned, and Melinda helping to provide a distraction? "Perfect." Cendrik's metal claws on both hands tear into the beast.
Spoiler: OOCSwift to change to Assassin's Stance (2d6 sneak attacks and +2 Saves from Swordsage Discipline Focus (Defensive Stance)). TWF full attack. If it drops then 5' step to Q7.
Claw1: (1d20+12)[24]

Claw2: (1d20+12)[32]

If both claws hit, rending: damage: (3d6)[13]
Side notes:
Sweet that dropping the fire snake into the hole worked out
With STR to the d4 base damage making it similar/better to a d6, if all attacks hit that's effectively 12d6 damage. Probably won't get this chance much.

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Round 33, Part 2
Cendrick slashes and slices at his foe, flensing large amounts of skin off with every blow against the creature. It collapses to the ground, and then vanishes from sight. Melinda takes advantage of this new safety to step back and cast a spell.
RexThaun steps forwards, chopping at the wrackspawn, half-destroying a chair in the process. It tries to dodge, but he catches it with his blade, and then again on the backswing (hit for 12 & 7 after DR). It’s seriously injured.
Xaanthios summons his astral construct, but it misses. He creates a wall of cold right on top of Mezzir-Shazz, who shivers slightly, but is undaunted.

Round 34, Part 1
Mezzir-Shazz floats away from Avalon (roll an AOO), who manages to punch him in the process. Undaunted, he casts another spell, and then calling out with his voice as loud as he can: “Nar-hesh of the third layer, I release you from my bonds, offering the blood of a betrayer and those who would aid him!” A faint roar echoes down from above, followed by a curse from Albin three floors up.

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
The swordsage knew who the bigger threat was. Who knew what other spells Mezzir-Shazz still had? Cendrik darted around Melinda and got right into the enemy wizard's face. Without missing a beat Cendrik grabbed the floating dwarf and threw him.
Spoiler: OOCFloating eh? No dwarven stability bonus?
Swift: Stance to Flame's Blessing
Move to S9 avoiding AoOs from W2.
Spoiler: Maneuver: Comet ThrowThis maneuver functions like mighty throw (page 73), except as noted here.
As part of this maneuver, you must succeed on a melee touch attack against your foe. You can then make a trip attempt against your enemy. You gain a +4 bonus on the ability check.
If you succeed in tripping your foe, you throw him up to 10 feet away from you in a direction of your choice. You select your enemy’s destination square. The target falls prone in that space and takes 4d6 points of damage. For every 5 points by which you win the opposed check, you gain an additional 5 feet of throw range. For example, if you win by 10, you can place your foe in any space within 20 feet of you. You can throw your opponent into a space occupied by a second foe. In this case, the opponent in the target square also takes 4d6 points of damage and is knocked prone. A Reflex save (DC 14 + your Str modifier) halves this damage and allows the second target to remain standing. The thrown creature then falls prone in a clear space of your choice adjacent to the second target.
Touch attack: (1d20+10)[22]
Trip check: (1d20+8)[28] vs Mezzir-Shazz's Dexterity or Strength check
If I can only throw 10', throw him into cold wall at U10
If >10' throw him into W2 and then MS lands prone in O8
Throw damage: (4d6)[12]
MS ends up prone either way.
W2 would get a Reflex DC 16 save for half damage and no prone.

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Rex was grinning as his blade slashed the bastard, but then it quickly faded, as he missed again, and then these black tentacles came out of nowhere, pulling and squeezing him, he couldn't move, so he barked out a line of electricity at the wizard.
then he yelled for the others, "HEY, YOU UP THERE, WE NEED SOME HELP! HE'S GOT US TRAPPED IN SOME BLACK TENTACLE THINGS!"

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Xaanthios
Xaanthios snarls as the tentacles close around him and squeeze down, shattering the buffer of protection he had created at the base of the tower. A moment of thought calls up the second charge in his anklets and he flickers out of sight, disappearing from the slimy grasp of the dark tentacle and re-appearing at the top of the stairs they had uncovered leading down. He peers downward, looking carefully for threats and gripping his staff firmly.
Avalon shakes and strives to free himself, straining to reach the infuriating dwarf.
Spoiler: OoCSecond charge of my Anklets send me to K8, and I'll Spot down the stairs: (1d20+1)[18]
Avalon uses each of his attacks to try to break free!
(1d20+10)[17] vs (1d20+22)[29] Attempt 1
(1d20+10)[21] vs (1d20+22)[31] Attempt 2
If either succeed Avalon exits the grapple to space O8 and then moves to M7.Nevermind, no movement. CL 14? That's brutal. We are in trouble.

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Cendrik also calls upwards, loudly, and authoritatively. "Yeah, hurry up. Your prey is here!"
With Xaanthios slipping out the side, Cendrik sees an opening to use Mezzir-Shazz's own supplies against the wizard. The dexterous swordsage darts around the outside of the black tentacles while also avoiding the wall of cold. Nearing the tunnel Mezzir-Shazz used Cendrik jumps the length of it, rolls, tumbles back up to his feet and zaps one of the wands grabbed upstairs.
Spoiler: OOCMovement with a jump and Extreme Leap skill trick. UMD Lightning Bolt wand at MS while avoiding party members.
Move southwest to P12. Jump check to N12 (moved in a straight line but slight turn for the jump so I don't know if that still counts for moving 20' in a straight line. If not, DC is upped to 20). Extreme Leap extra movement to get to L12. Flame's Blessing (Fire Resist 10) already in effect. Even if I miss the jump roll, I should still have the angle to fire without hitting friendlies.
Jump (1d20+18)[33]
UMD DC 20 to activate wand (1d20+11)[22]
Lightning Bolt (5d6)[16] Electricity, Reflex save for half.
Might be useful for Kish to know if our electrical attacks were resisted.
Would be sweet on the next turn to be able to run, jump over the tentacles, land in MS's space, tackle him to the ground and keep him busy there but I don't think the rules can handle that.

Xaanthios and Melinda both teleport free, while RexThaun concentrates his efforts on killing the dwarven wizard by breathing lightning. Cendrik moves quickly, leaping across the hole in the floor and aiming a lightning bolt at the wizard mid-jump, joined by another lightning bolt from Melinda.

Re: Servants of the Thrallherd IC 2 [3.5, faster posting speed]
Rex struggle against the tendrils who had him locked down, he tried to move, but they bound him so, his armor and weapons bogging him down, even if he had the ability, the magic was strong, too strong for him.
He sighed, and steeled himself against the inevitable.

Xaanthios
A raised eyebrow and rolled eyes greet the deplorable pun uttered by the wizard even as the first dark chuckle rolls out of Xaanthios’ mouth. The chuckle deepens and broadens until a full bodied bellowing laugh echoes in the stairwell. He slumps down to sit on the top step, his head thrown back and howling with laughter.

Round 36, Part 2
Xaanthios falls to the ground, laughing, and doesn’t command Avalon to do anything. Cendrik takes a more meditative response. The construct continues its last orders to try to break free of the ensnaring tentacles, but is unable to overcome them. RexThaun is similarly unsuccessful.

Round 37, Part 1
Mezzir-Shazz, floating 10’ in the air in the corner, snarls and incants another spell, before drinking a potion. You can’t see an immediate effect, but the tentacles are separated by an invisible wall, apparent in their movements. From this, Melinda and Cendrik can identify it as a Wall of Force blocking the wizard and the stairway off from them.

Rex continues to struggle with the black tentacles, he barks out another lighting bolt at the mage, unaware of the wall of force, but for some reason nothing would come forth, he felt the power building within him.
Spoiler
I'm not sure where the wall is, so if he can hit him, cool, if not, oh well.

"Dwarven Coward!" Cendrik runs right at the enemy, even with the black tentacles and wall of force in the way. "Come on Rex, fight your way out." The swordsage continues running right into the same spell that has the dragonborn trapped. Just as the tentacles go to grab him, Cendrik activates his magical boots and suddenly he is on the other side of the invisible wall of force and directly below Mezzir-Shazz.
Cendrik then leaps upward with great skill to make use of the wall, nearly wedging himself between Mezzir-Shazz and the corner, grabs the dwarf by the legs and flings him into into the magical wall the swordsage had just teleported through. Conveniently, the dwarf wizard's own spell is there to help his enemies.
Spoiler: OOCMove to L8, granting the tentacles a chance to grab.
Grapple Resist: (1d20+8)[18] vs tentacles (1d20+22)[37] damage (1d6+4)[7]
Swift: teleport to L6 at ground level.
Standard: Spring Attack: Jump up to reach MS and use Comet Throw to throw him into L7 as close to ground level as I can. I return to the ground level to finish the Spring Attack
Jump DC 20: (1d20+18)[29]
Spoiler: Comet ThrowThis maneuver functions like mighty throw (page 73), except as noted here.
As part of this maneuver, you must succeed on a melee touch attack against your foe. You can then make a trip attempt against your enemy. You gain a +4 bonus on the ability check.
If you succeed in tripping your foe, you throw him up to 10 feet away from you in a direction of your choice. You select your enemy’s destination square. The target falls prone in that space and takes 4d6 points of damage. For every 5 points by which you win the opposed check, you gain an additional 5 feet of throw range. For example, if you win by 10, you can place your foe in any space within 20 feet of you. You can throw your opponent into a space occupied by a second foe. In this case, the opponent in the target square also takes 4d6 points of damage and is knocked prone. A Reflex save (DC 14 + your Str modifier) halves this damage and allows the second target to remain standing. The thrown creature then falls prone in a clear space of your choice adjacent to the second target.
Ranged touch attack: (1d20+10)[21]
Trip check: (1d20+8)[26] vs Mezzir-Shazz's Dexterity or Strength check (without dwarven bonus)
Throw him into force wall at L7 at ground level
Throw damage: (4d6)[16]
EDIT: The DC I listed ended up being for a long jump without a running start (though it does raise the curious question of does the swift teleport interrupt the 20' run beforehand?). It should have been a high jump check. I have 8' reach and MS is 10' up so I need 2'-3' in height. My roll gets me 3.5' up even if the initial run doesn't count. Grabbing the dwarf by his cankles, using the wall a leverage, and hopefully flinging him.

Xaanthios
Xaanthios continues to cackle uncontrollably, the laughter a sound that could drive the weak-willed to madness (it's Hideous Laughter, after all). Avalon continues its futile struggle against the tentacle doom.
Spoiler: OoCI don't think I can command Avalon while laughing, and they can't do much anyways.

Melinda steps over to the edge of the area where, judging by the tentacles' restricted movement, the wall is, and casts a spell.
SpoilerMove to R5, avoiding the tentacles, and cast True Strike.Orth Plays: Currently Baldur's Gate II
