    2 eyes float down each corridor and about 5 minutes, all return to report. The eyes in the corridor on the far right report an empty chamber that have cots and two exits out the rear. The eyes from the middle corridor report 11 sleeping dwarves and one sleeping giant, one exit out the rear. The far left sees 11 dwarves and one giant, all awake and two exits out the rear.

    While the Eyes are scouting ahead, Mulcri passes out three of the amulets to whoever wants one, storing any remaining into her Haversack. These will make the wearer a bit heartier." She will wear one herself, after activating the amulet she is already wearing.

    With the amulets identified and still no sign of returning eyes, the Elf will take a look at the Giants' weapons as well.

    When they return, the Elf will report what her Eyes have seen to the rest of the group, then use her Third Eye Sense to observe the room with the awake people while we discuss our next move. "So, shall we ambush the sleeping one first, or silence the alert?"

    CL4 Righteous Fury, 20 Temporary HP for up to an hour and an irrelevant +4 sacred bonus to Str for four minutes.

    Four amulets means four minutes, leaving one to inspect a morningstar. No action to simply check the auras of the armor and weapons. I assume those are similarly identical to each other, so I'll just identify the nearest morningstar if none of the auras are different. If any are, I'll make the decision when I get the info.

    The auras on all weapons and armor are similar, and the first morning star is a +4 weapon.

    Otrera

    Once the magic items are identified and the eyes are on their way, Otrera and Hillock will step out of the cave. For a moment Otrera resumes her amazon aspect, and Hillock transforms into a gigantic, slightly hairy, elephant. Unless there are objections, the giants' armour and weapons are loaded onto bags and straps hanging off of Hillock, except for one of the highly magical morningstars. When, at a second command from Otrera, the elephant transforms again into the flaming demon, he bends down to pick up the morning star and practices with it for a moment. It's clear that he has swung things before, but any benefit is likely to come from the magic of the weapon and the force of the blow, not the skill of the swinger.

    *Yes, definitely the awake ones first. They're also the ones most likely to be on the move, to a meal or a shift.*

    Spoiler: OOC
    Show
    Unless anyone else wants to carry the giants' stuff, Hillock can do so pretty easily.

    Neither of us would benefit from the amulets, and should be left out of the mass invisibility, so we don't spoil it if we need to move.

    Tinac asks nonchalantly Any need healing? I doubt it, as you were most efficient in taking down those giants... were if the rest of our potential combats went as smoothly. He then stands near Mulcri I feel that taking out the potential of an alert is more pressing, the sleeping one will take a few to even be aware that anything is happening, In fact. I think Roadan could most likely, kill the sleeping one with one stab.

    "Enough of us, including the elementals, can get to the sleeping giant and all hit him at once, while keeping the invisibility alive. The fight should be over before those dwarves wake. That gives us time to keep get the dwarves to keep quiet, with the benefit of killing fewer slaves.

    Advantage of taking out the sleeping one first? We MAY be able to kill it before it can set off an alarm. Disadvantage: May be noisy enough to attract the awake one anyway. Advantage to going after the awake one first? We MAY be able to knock it out quietly enough that the sleeping one doesn't wake up...

    Honestly, we're probably going to have to deal with them both anyway. I'll volunteer to go kill the sleeping one and catch up with the rest of you after it's done.

    Sora casts a spell on herself. "If you all insist on the awake on first, fine, though I still believe a silent assassination is the better tactic. Once we deal with one group we need to quietly hurry to the other group. Trying to take out a giant alone is unwise. Remember the last ones took a severe hit from my magic first, plus there may be a dwarf or two that sides with the giant, especially if there is just one attacker. I'll have the elementals block the back exits as before. Am I holding back on casting so I don't break the Mass Invisibility?"

    I have a way to kind-of be at two places at once. If Aracor is going to kill the sleeping one by himself, i will cast Foresight, so I know if he is in danger.... actually now that I think about it... I need to cast it on Roadan as well. I will Delay Death Aracor as well, that will give him time for me arrive and heal before he succumbs to any wounds. Tinac then casts while the conversation on what best route to precced is taking place.

    Atalanta


    Killing a sleeping enemy was not really in her ethos; ambush them while they were guarding the entrance was one thing, but slaughtering them while aslept seemed wrong.


    Wouldn't be wiser to try and talk with the dwarfs that are with the sleeping giant. Surround the giant and force them to surrender?

    She offered, knowing well too well that these zealous wariors were up for the killing. Atalanta was here to fight demons, their minions were of lesser importance, but living and intelligent creatures non the least.

    However they decided to go, Atalant will take point on one of the groups.

    "I would normally be fine with that, but remember our instructions specifically include killing these Giants. Slitting someone's throat in his sleep doesn't exactly appeal to me, but I can live with it because it's more practical than starting a fight and potentially raising the alarm. I've already been forming a mental list of things to mention to our superiors before we do any future missions, and now that you mention it I will happily add some variation of 'what do we do if someone you told us to kill tries to surrender'."

    "For now, I say we take the awake ones first, before they leave. Although, if anyone wants to split off to handle the sleeping one, I wouldn't try to stop them.

    I am open to a split or divided party, just remember that you cannot influence reactions in the room you are not in (looks specifically at Tinac)

    Otrera has indicated that she is moving forward, I need clarification on which tunnel she is choosing, sleeping or non-sleeping. Since this is now breaking the ice, I need to hear which tunnel each person is following, an initiative roll and a statement of your actions, based obviously on which room you enter, seeing as it doesnt make any sense to burst into the sleeping room with fireballs blazing.

He cleaned his blade on the corpse of the giant before him, placing it back in it's sheath while they scouted and looted, he moved slowly walked to the mouth of the tunnel, seeing one of his allies...he couldn't remember her name, turn into a....demon? his demonology wasn't up to snuff, he simply shrugged it off and watched.

    Upon hearing of the two options, he mentally nods in agreement I will go to the sleeping giant, anyone willing to come is welcome, I do not want to waste these boons I have received, I will be stepping out in 1 minute

    Sora explains matter of factually. "This is a fast strike operation. We're not giving them the chance for a fair fight. We want to keep things as lopsided as possible for us. No time for prisoners. Remember these are slavers. Best we can do is hand over any who try to surrender to the dwarves we free so they can have their revenge."

    "We need to get the dwarves to stay quiet. They should know the mine layout which will aid us greatly. Their choice to either leave or follow us in. Having some follow us will help when we encounter other dwarves."

    "So Atalanta, Tessa, and Atalanta at least are hitting the sleeping ones. They'll be group 2 and I'll join the awake group, group 1, using the elementals to keep the exits blocked. I can see invisible now, except for the superior invisibility of course. I'll be attacking from up on the ceiling and using teleports to move so I don't make noise approaching. Two elementals will cover each exit and one will join in the attack from below. Anything else? Let's go."


    While everyone gets quietly into position Sora eyes the cavern, particularly the dwarves. Where there any traitors among them? Is the giant similarly outfitted as the others? Once the others (from both groups) were ready Sora casts a spell with her one hand starting open then snapping her pointer finger closed while the rest of her fingers aim at the giant. A small fist sized ball of flame shoots out aimed at the giant. Just after the blast impacts, she calls out in polite Dwarven. "We are here to help and kill the giants. Please stay clear."

    Sora will combine Dimensional Jaunt (45') and Slippers of Spider Climbing to move along the ceiling invisibly.

    Mulcri will send an Eye down the third tunnel with instructions to stay hidden at the fork and return to her if it sees any creature not part of their own group. She will then join the ones heading towards the people who are awake. When they get close, she will again briefly check on them with her Third Eye before they proceed. "Strike when you will.

    Together with Sora and Mulcri, Otrera instinctively take on guard positions in front of the others. Once they reach the cavern with the giant, they draw fire by darting forward from the ceiling. Hillock lifts his newly-acquired morningstar, while Otrera has pulled out a glaive that adjusts to her size.

    Initiative: (1d20+11)[13]

    To start, Hillock is in Balor form, and Otrera is a pit fiend.

    Once we arrive at the room with the awake giant, Hillock will charge forward from the ceiling to the cloud giant, unless there's a clear reason in the room not to (a barrier, the giant is a baby, etc). He can cover up to 180' with a flying charge, and uses full power attack with Stormguard Warrior to attack once with his new morning star. Hillock is then AC 22, HP 392, and size large.
    Attack (18 BAB + 18 Strength +4 weapon bonus +2 charge) (1d20+42)[62]
    Damage (2d6 +4 magic weapon +13 strength (two handed grip + 36 power attack) (2d6+53)[59]
    With Pierce Magical Concealment, Hillock ignores miss chances or concealment coming from spells or SLA's. With Mage Slayer, the giant cannot cast spells defensively.

    Otrera will also charge the giant, lowering her AC to 61. She uses her Sizing Glaive, which has now been augmented to +4.
    Attack: (13 BAB + 21 strength +4 magic weapon +2 charge) (1d20+40)[43]
    Damage: (2d8 +4 weapon + 31 strength) (2d8+35)[43]

    If the giant does anything to trigger an attack of opportunity, both Hillock and Orera will take the attacks:
    Hillock: Attack (1d20+22)[28]
    Damage (2d6+53)[64]
    Otrera: Attack (1d20+38)[53]
    Damage: (2d6+35)[42]

    Spoiler: Group 1 initiative
    Show
    Sora, Otrara, Mulcri, Giant

    Spoiler: Group 2 initiative
    Show
    Raordan, Tessa, Atalanta, Dwarf


    The group attacking the active giants and dwarves explode into action, Sora hitting the giant with magic and Otrera and Hillock pounding on him as well. The giant looks extremely damaged but manages a strike back on Ortara for 37 points. One dwarf, who is armed and armored as well steps forward with the giant, striking at Hillock 4 times but scoring only one hit for 20 points. The other 10 dwarves, who are unarmed and unarmored, run to the back of the room, forming a defensive position but taking no threatening action.

    Raordan creeps silently into the sleeping dwarf room and with one swift blow, separates the giant's head from its body. The head rolls around, the sound awakening the dwarves. One dwarf, who is armed (but unfortunately unarmored as he was sleeping) steps forward, boldly saying What is the meaning of this outrageous intrusion?. The other 10 dwarves run to the far end of the room, forming a defensive position but taking no threatening action.

    Round 2
    Tactical: Group 1, giant near death, dwarf unharmed, 10 dwarves taking no offensive action
    Group 2, giant beheaded, dwarf unharmed, 10 dwarves taking no offensive action


    EVERYBODY in both groups, make a will save.

    Tessa, though invisible, will speak.

    Peace, friends. We are here to render these mines inoperative. As of right now, we've slain the guards at the entrance and are pushing deeper. We plan to evacuate everyone who's willing to go, but this mine is going to collapse within the hour. I strongly recommend that you work on evacuation.

    Raodan wipes the blood of his blade as he regarded the giants head on the floor, it was grisly work, but needed to be done. He tilted his head to the side as a voice spoke to him.

    Looking to Tessa he nods, I too heard a voice. Someone has noticed us.
