Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Solstafir hustled back into the tunnels, the considerable weight on his shoulders not slowing down his step. Dwarves may not have the quick step of other racesbut it takes more than mere encumbrance to impede their movement. He reached for the potion he originally had brought for himself, feeding it to Levyk.
SpoilerGive him my Lesser Vigor. Takes a bit longer, but a guaranteed 11 HP.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Orchid grabs one of the flasks from her makeshift bandolier and throws it at the giant without a second though. She then grabs her crossbow from the ground.
Spoiler: OOC
I don't know what the range increment on throwing things are, so I'm just applying the -4 penalty for not being proficient in throwing them.
Swift: I'm assuming that retreiving the flask from the bandolier is a swift action since it's readily available.
Standard: Throw the flask at the giant; Attack: (1d20-2)[6]
Move: Pick up the crossbow.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Orchid flings the flask of red-tinted liquid at the giant scoring a direct hit! The flask explodes into flame as the liquid violently reacts with air as the brittle glass shatters on impact. The giant roars in pain taking (1d6)[3] damage.
Solstafir hauls Levyk back into the tunnel and applies his potion. Lesser Vigor heals Levyk for 1 HP, bringing him from -9 HP to -8 HP. 10 rounds of healing remain.
The giant, now on fire, roars something as it drops to the ground and rolls out of view attempting to extinguish the flames on its body. Reflex to extinguish the flames (1d20+4)[15] vs a DC of 15.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
"Keep at it, I'll see it I can get the singer out too." With the ettin not yet seeming wise to their plan Solstafir moved back into the large chamber, quickly hurrying towards the pillar behind which Thanquil's body lay waiting.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Orchid takes a hand off her crossbow and ready another flask to throw at the giant for when shows up in her light of sight.
"Come on! I bet that hurts less than when you hit me earlier!" She shouts at the ogre, hoping to keep his ire on her.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Geraldo, seeing that Solstafir has already taken off to retrieve Thanquil, decides to try another of the milky potions from the vials, feeding it to Aertre and healing (1d8)[6] HP. (Aertre is healed from -4 HP to 2, Aertre is now conscious.)
The giant, having put out the fire, stands and takes account of its surroundings. (1d20+9)[11] on a 15 or better, the giant clearly realizes the downed adventurers are disappearing. The giant's focus is once again captured by Orchid's taunts and it focuses it attention back on that particular tunnel.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
It seemed the group still had some time left to finish their evacuation as Solstafir put the unconscious body of Thanquil over his shoulder. The singer was considerably lighter than Levyk much to his relief and the dwarf hurried towards the nearest tunnel entrance. He'd have to circle a bit through the narrow corridors to rejoin Geraldo, but he judged that to be better than giving the ettin one last chance to see where they were bringing the bodies of their companions.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Geraldo hustles over to administer another of the potions (4th of the 6 collected, leaving 2 remaining) to Thanquil, healing him (1d8)[2] hp, while doing so he quickly catches up Aertre on what has happened during her brief stint of unconsciousness.
The giant moves and slams both his clubs onto the tunnel, apparently smart enough not to give direct line of sight to Orchid a second time. The first club slams into the stonework with tremendous force dealing (1d10+6)[11] followed immediately by the second (1d10+6)[14]. The stone work cracks substantially and small pebbles begin to fall lose inside the tunnel. One or two more rounds of blows like that and the entire tunnel may come down.
Spoiler: Status and ConditionsLevyk -6 hp with 8 rounds of fast healing remaining.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Prompted by Geraldo as he finishes explaining the situation, Aertre administers the 5th potion to Thanquil, leaving one left. Thanquil is healed another (1d8)[1] HP, bringing him to 0 HP. He is now conscious, though Disabled.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
"Good morning fellas. Surprise, you're not dead. Now if you got any healing potions, scrolls or doodads left better use them, we still got a twoheaded giant to kill." With most of their people able to move Solstafir reached into his extradimensional storage, distributing the looted alchemical weapons as evenly as he could, including Levyk who should soon enough recover thanks to the potion he had given him.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Thanquil groans in pain as he comes to. He hadn't expected the giant to move so fast when it came at him and he was seriously reconsidering his choices that had led him to this moment.
At Solstafir's words he groaned again and reached into his bag to pull out his last scroll of Lesser Vigor which he then cast on himself (fast healing 1 for 11 rounds).
"What did I miss? If the giants still alive, where are we?"

"Thanks for getting me out of there." Thanquil says before looking down at the offered flasks. "I think I'll stick with my bow, I can keep a bit of distance from it that way. Have you explored the tunnels? Is there another way out so we don't have to fight that thing?"

"They go all around in a ring, no exit. There's always the escape stone but we must not chicken out here. Not sure if you picked up on it, that thing said 'not again' when it got ugly. Bet you we're not the first Delvers getting thrust into this meat grinder and if we don't put a stop to it we won't be the last either." The dwarf put on his shield again, his determined gaze focusing on the way into the arena. "This ends today."

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
After seeing that the giant wasn't falling for her trick again, Orchid tosses the flask right out side of the entrance to hopefully distract him as scurries back into the tunnel. She tries to navigate to a different tunnel, hoping to find another angle to target the giant.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Aertre coughs, spitting up blood before wiping it from her mouth, and looks around the tunnel at the others. "I heard voices …" she begins, then trails off, shaking her head as if confused.
She pushes her legs beneath her and stands as best she can, hands fumbling in a pouch for a bottle of red liquid, which she downs. "Is it hurt at all?" she asks.
Spoiler: ooc
Not sure if anybody used that CLW potion of hers to get Thanquil up. If yes, that red liquid will be wine. If not …

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
"I guess if there's no other way out we should try again to take out the giant. How many entrances to the arena are there? We could all pop out of a different one to attack it and then whoever it moves to attack can duck back in to the tunnels and move elsewhere."
Then to Aertre, Thanquil says "I think I heard voices too... I couldn't understand what it was saying although it sounded malevolent."

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Orchid flings the flask just outside the entrance of the tunnel. Flame licks wildly from the reaction of the alchemical substance within's exposure to the air. Orchid hears the giant grunt angrily, likely caught by the edge of the blast, as she starts into the tunnel, feeling the deep vibrations of the giant's clubs slamming into the stonework once again. Based on the feeling, Orchid estimates that tunnel is probably not structurally safe anymore.
On her next action Orchid can check from another tunnel to see if there's a good line on the giant - but it will take a double move to get there if she wishes.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
"Anyone else got any caltrops?" Solstafir asked, pulling out the three bags he himself brought. Making those was some of the lowest and most monotonous work for those starting out at the Foundry, utilising the lowest quality crude iron they had on stock, usually made from melting down the shoddy gear of Dungeon denizens like the hobgoblins they had fought some time before. "The giant has a much wider frame than us so we can make a field with narrow gaps we can pass through freely but it can't. Also got a tanglefoot bag from the goblin alchemist for you Geraldo. Just do anything to keep it at ranged, none of you can afford to take another hit."

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Aertre and Thanquil indicate they have no caltrops and await a finalized plan.
The final goblin alchemist potion administered to Levyk heals for (1d8)[3].
With only Orchid being in potential combat as the rest of the team are safe from the giant, I'll keep updating rounds.
Orchid finds a view of the giant. Based on the spacing, there are 5 total entrances the ring around the central chamber. From her position, she can see the giant due to its large size, however, it has cover from one of the six pillars.
The giant slams its clubs into the stonework once more (1d10+6)[16] plus (1d10+6)[9]. The entrance to that tunnel collapses, reducing the usable entrances to four.
Spoiler: Status and ConditionsLevyk -1 with 6 rounds left of fast healing
Thanquil heals to 2 HP with 9 rounds left of fast healing.
The giant has taken 34 damage.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
"My healing spell can take around a minute to fully close up any wounds so I'd like to wait a little while before we go back in there. I can move into position at one of the entrances opposite the giant while I wait though. Since you seem to be the toughest, Solstafir, do you want to run in and lay the caltrops while the rest of us provide some covering fire and Geraldo tries to hit it with the tanglefoot bag?"

"Fine, but wait with the tanglefoot bag until we're all ready to engage. It will only slow it down for a short time and we have to make the best of it." Solstafir moved back into the chamber, doing his best to remain out of the giant's field of view and ripped open his first bag of caltrops to spread them ten feet from the nearest pillar.

Re: Aegis' Dungeoncrawler In-Character
Solstafir spreads caltrops while Geraldo hurries into position.
Aertre, getting some idea of the plan, begins moving to the final available entrance with intention to use ranged magic to assist in bringing the giant down.
Orchid successfully gets the giant's attention. It seems it is fairly easy to manipulate it in this fashion.
The giant charges towards Orchid as she slips back into the tunnel after realizing she's not safe. The giant furiously pounds its clubs against this entrance dealing (1d10+6)[7] and (1d10+6)[14] damage to the stonework.
