"Just be careful you don't hit anything you shouldn't." He sighs, getting toward the back of the party, still working on his acid.

Puts her acid potion away as she looks around, "Orcs... huh..."

"Only 40 feet, they weren't too stupid about this. Well, they're only orcs anyways, what are we waiting for?" She says, clearly not worried, maybe even almost bored.

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Holi raises his axe, "Just be careful where ya aim yer blasted bolts, I've died more times then I care to remember from poorly aimed magic."

With that he charges for the orc that he has the clearest path too screaming, "For Felbarr and King Emerus Warcrown."

(Charge attack with dwarven waraxe, if I don't have a path open for a charge. Just get as close as possible to the orcs, with my move.)

Tod puts his brew down and takes out his crossbow, waiting for a clear shot at an orc.

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Malacet does a light jog to the top of the rise, making strange movements and uttering something unintelligible. As she finishes her incantation she points to the side of the road where the smaller and better hidden group lay, and a sphere of perfect darkness appears around them.

((Casting darkness at the area surrounding the smaller group, just in case that wasn't clear enough :). ))

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Eh, fuck it, Guess I'll just have to fry the things. Granth says, opting not to wait until the dwarf had moved his fluffy self into the way. As such he makes a few strange sounds and thrusts his right hand towards the right side of the bend sending out a electrical line of energy out at where the larger group of orcs should be hidden.

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

(You didn't see them, but you know where they are. I'm assuming he's running toward the bunch in the bushes, who are now wondering why they can't see anything. Rolls time!)

In almost perfect unison, Trex and Aramil say; "Oh crap," and follow the dwarf. Bolm laughs and runs after them, shouting; "Go for the buggers in the trees!"

Meanwhile, the seven orcs in the bushes fumble around and break cover from the bushes, and come out of the globe of darkness at different points. The ones in the forest, now knowing they are in for a fight, stand and aim their bows at the charging trio.

(Orcs get first attack, initiative rolls are for next turn.)
Attacks
Orc Archer 1: 1d20+2 = 18+2 = 20 vs AC18 = hit on Holi. Takes 4 damage.
Orc Archer 2: 1d20+2 = 13+2 = 15 vs AC18 = miss on Holi. .
Orc Archer 3: 1d20+2 = 19+2 = 21 vs AC18 = critical hit on Holi. Takes 2 damage.
Orc Archer 4: 1d20+2 = 20+2 = 22 vs AC25 = critical hit on Trex. Takes 8 damage.
Orc Archer 5: 1d20+2 = 19+2 = 21 vs AC25 = miss hit on Trex.
Orc Archer 6: 1d20+2 = 16+2 = 18 vs AC18 = hit on Aramil. Takes 5 damage.
Orc Archer 7: 1d20+2 = 20+2 = 22 vs AC18 = critical hit on Aramil. Takes 6 damage.
(OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!!)

Assuming you're using lightning bolt.


Initiative:
Shrike: 13
DMRonny: 21
Ryu: 24
Loli: 16
Pheonix: 3
Orcs: 2
Aramil/Trex/Bolm: 6

So it goes Ryu, Ronny, Loli, Shrike, Pheonix, NPCs, Orcs.

The charging warriors are peppered with arrows, several catching them in their armors weak points. This doesn't slow them, however, and they close half the distance between themselves and the orc bowmen.
The lightning bolt aimed at the confused orcs coming out of the darkness globe catches two of them, both of whom fall dead and crispy to the ground.

(Thank you.)

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

(Archer 5 misses. Only natural 20's auto-hit, regardless of critical threat range. Also, bows have a crit range of 20 only, and for x3 damage. Unless those are crossbows. But you said bows, so... ^^; )

Tod sighs, taking aim with his crossbow and aiming at one of the orc archers.

(Normal bolt vs orc archer #4)

Gets up and rushes into the fray, aiming her fists at the closest orc, "For... Lord Ghaunadaur!"

(Unarmed strike on first orc)

(You're still 40 feet away, so I'm assuming you're charging.)

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Starting to laugh in merriment, Granth turns his focus to the other orcs and draws mana into one of his fingers before sending a smaller bolt of electricity off with a word and a gesture.

(Casting Scorching Ray using the Energy Substitution Feat to make it deal electricity damage)

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Malacet stays where she is and begins chanting again, differently this time. A black orb laced with blue patterns appears in her right hand, and she motions to one of the orcs in the roadway, sending it in it's direction. As soon as it leaves her grip, the orb bursts into flame, a small trail burning behind it as it flies through the air.

((Brimstone Blast, normal Eldritch blast plus a DC21 Reflex save or the orc catches fire))

((EDIT: orc number 7, sorry))

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Holi bellows with rage as he's peppered with arrows, Without slowing a bit his eyes begin to bulge and grow bloodshot as spittle flies from the corner of his mouth.

"For Haela and the Morndinsamman." He screams as he lowers his head to take out the closest orc with his horned helmet.

(Rage and charge attack with horned helmet at nearest orc archer.)

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

(M'kay, here we go.)

1d20+8 = 16+8 = 24 vs DC15 = hit on Orc Archer 3, takes 7+1 = 8 damage.

Tods bolt catches one of the orcs in the chest.

1d20+12 = 13+12 = 25 vs DC15 = hit on Orc archer 2, takes (1+6)*2 = 14

Another orc is not so lucky, as Holi charges headfirst into him. The orc is impaled clean through his gut, and hangs limply on the dwarfs helmet spike, very dead.

1d20+9 = 2+9 = 11 vs DC15 = miss on Orc archer 1

The monk quickly rushed right past the elf and the paladin to attack another orc, but the orc was lucky and dodged the kick Carella aimed at his head.

1d20+7 = 20+7 = 27 vs DC15 = hit on Orc archer 7, takes 3d6 = 2+4+5 = 11 damage, reflex save: 1d20+2 = 9+2 = 11 vs DC21 = fail, he catches fire.

The farthest orc never knew what hit him, but he knew how bad it hurt. Malacets energy blast lances through the air and strikes him clean in the chest, knocking him over and setting his shabby leather armor, and his flesh beneath it, on fire. He begins rolling in panic, trying to extinguish the flames, but his injuries are too severe for him to move much.

1d20+4 = 7+4 = 11 vs DC11 = hit on Orc Archer 6, 4d6 = 3+3+1+5 = 12 damage.

The beam of lightning from Granths fingers hits an orc in the chest, scorching him him dropping him to his knees. He staggers back to his feet, but then collapses to the ground in a heap, twitching.

1d20+11+2 = 19+11+2 = 32 vs DC15 = critical hit on orc archer 4, 1d6+3 = (4+3)*2 = 14 damage;
1d20+12+2 = 20+12+2 = 34 vs DC15 = critical hit on orc archer 4, 1d6+1+1= (4+1+1)*2 = 12 damage

Aramil rushes to the nearest orc, slashing the orcs throat with his scimitar and gutting it with his shortsword. The orc is dead before it hits the ground.

1d20+12+2 = 16+12+2 = 30 vs DC15 = hit on orc archer 5, 1d8+4+2 = 6+4+2 = 12 damage

Trex rushes forward and slashes one of the few remaining orcs across the belly, the orc collapses trying to hold in his guts.

1d20+10+2+2 = 18+10+2+2 = 32 vs DC15 = hit on orc warrior, 1d8+4+2+1d6 = 3+4+2+1 = 10 damage

Bolm charges at the orc who still stood confused at the edge of the globe of darkness and swung his morningstar at the creature, but the blow was poorly aimed and hit the creature in the shoulder, crushing its arm and causing mild burns from the weapons fiery magic, but not killing the creature.

1d20+5 = 14+5 = 19 vs DC22 = miss
The orc warrior swings at Bolm, his poorly made club bouncing harmlessly off Bolms tower shield. The wounded orc archer (orc 3), meanwhile, sees his fellows dieing around him, drops his bow, and flees, clutching his wound. But he is not so lucky, as Aramils blades catch him in the side, bringing him to the ground into a quickly spreading pool of his own blood. The lead archer, seeing this, drops his bow and raises his arms in surrender.

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

Holi begins dancing around and singing an amusing song about having an orc stuck on your helmet. The dead orc impaled on his helmet flopping around comically as the blood runs down all over Holi's face and armor.

After his little song and dance he pulls the orc off and points to the last orc, "So what do we do with this one?"

Carella smiles and takes out her length of rope, "Just... making sure."

Re: Scourge of the Silver Marches

I have a suggestion: use large amounts of electricity several times until the orc is cooked from the inside! Granth emphasizes his suggestion by letting an electrical spell build up in his hand causing sparks to jump between his fingers.
