(( Agreed.

Who's up, anyways? Is it Bali right now? ))

((Yup. Bali's up next. I'm just going to go for him. I just got back from dinner though, which is why I didn't do it already.))

((In unrelated news, Player's Handbook 2 is out. Are we going to use the new material?))

Zorga, seeing an opportunity to strike, makes a calculated move along the edge of the pit and freezing cloud. The rogue sizes up her target as she draws her dagger with great finesse and stealth--the warrior doesn't even see the blade coming before it's imbedded deep in his throat. He drops to the ground, dead, without a sound.

((Zorga moves to H7.
Draws Dagger
Sly Flourish against W2 (thrown dagger). Hit for 9 damage.
W2 is dead.

Next up: Ralzik))

Spotting the helpless goblin in the pit, ralzik moves up bottom west corner of the pit, curses the hexer on the othe side of the pit, and then looks a bit healthier as he shoots a blast of eldritch fire charring the goblin in his grave.
((move to b8, curse H, eldrtich blast for 6 damage))
1d20+6=24
1d10+5=6

((I'm guessing you blasted S1 and not H?))

((As another note, Dag, I realized I was doing something wrong. Tempt HP doesn't stack. So, if you already have 1 temp HP, and gain another one, you don't get 2. If you had 1, however, and then gained 13, you'd have 13. You take whatever ammount is greater.))

Closing his eyes in order to concentrate on the large orb of flame hovering above the pit, Aesamar directs the sphere across the remaining distance to the end of the hall, bringing it to a halt next to the growling goblin hexer. Tongues of crimson flame whip out from the ball, but they once again go wide, and the hexer remains unharmed. For now.

((Sustain Minor))
((Move Sphere to F3))
((Attack with flaming sphere. Int vs Ref15 (1d20+4=7) Miss again! ))

((Ahhh, I thought that skill was a bit overpowered.))

((I just thought: Are we getting any experience for all these goblin beasties we're hacking/cursing/burning/throatslitting our way through?))

Tsuujin glares at the distant Hexer, his blades itching to taste it's blood. He curses at his situation, but makes the smart move and takes the time to call upon his fortitude and shrug off some of his wounds.

Feeling a bit better, Tsuujin lets out a savage warcry, dispelling the curse by sheer force of will.

((
Second Wind, gain 6 HP.
Saving throw Vs. Curse. (1d20=15) (Success!)
))

((Why does everyone think I'm cheating them out of XP?

Yes. You're getting xp. You'll actually be leveling up once you finish off this Hexer.))

Hissing viciously as his robes are singed by the pulsating sphere of fire, the last remaining goblin makes a sudden run for it, stopping only to throw open the door that leads deeper into the barrow and to throw a wicked curse at the rogue closet to it.

Zorga reels as the blackness familiar to the others in the party floods her vision, coalescing into a painful darkness that sears her flesh. The dragonborn roars in pain, but also in determination, a new vigor filling her up, forcing the black magic out.

Up Next: Kuro, Ralzik, Tsuujin, & Aesamar!

More than slightly angry about the cowardice of the fleeing goblin, Tsuujin wastes no time in sprinting directly to the goblin in a straight line. Reaching the cowardly creature Tsuujin hacks into it twice, hitting the goblin squarely as blood sprays out from fresh wounds. Not satisfied with this, the fighter draws deep into his reserves and strikes the goblin a third time, leaving it wounded and clinging to life.

"Run now, you wretch!" Tsuujin screams out with obvious satisfaction.

edit: ((I think there is somethig wron with my description because he appears to be dead, before I can get the second shot off heh))

(( nothing wrong with defiling the corpse with some extra damage. ))

((well I'm not 100% clear on the actionpoints rule is all))

(( you start with one action point. You can spend that point for an action of your choosing. Extended rests reset that point.

SAW will have to decide if you get undo the action point, given that my post ninja'd yours. ))

((right but this is our second encounter where we get extra actionpoints, but only if we use them, or something. And we are going to level up, so I'm not sure how that affects the milestone.))

((Okay, first, Action Points:

Dag's didn't get used up. Aaand, milestones only happen when you do 2 encounters in a row without an extended rest. You guys slept at the Tavern, so this isn't your milestone. Upon completing the next encounter, however, you'll reach a milestone and get fresh action points.

And yes, you all leveled up. If you know how to handle that, go ahead and do it. Add your gained HP to your current and max, and then go ahead and use as many healing surges as it takes to heal yourselves back to full if you want to.

You all get a level 2 utility power, aand you all get a new feat. Also, anything that relies on half a level goes up now. So ya for that.

Other than that, feel free to carry on.))
