    Minsc throws his weight against the door in a mighty kick/body slam, only to have it hold fast. He tries again... to no effect. One more time, and he finally breaks off one of the hangers. He gestures to Mazzy for help, and between the two of them, the door springs open.

    The wizard is already moving, as are his men. Due to the stoutness of the bar, you have lost any element of surprise. The wizard has gone invisible, and the men are armed with bows... one of them is Kivan's bow. They fire arrows at Minsc and Edwin... both hit. Minsc takes 6 points (to the knee... no, j/k) and Edwin takes 7, killing him. It will take you one combat round to get to where the bowmen are...

    I hope you understand it was nothing personal Kivan, I just wanted to live and I don't care if you do. Oh, and you still should use my soap if you live.

    Sorry, Edwin. Glass cannons and all. Squishy, squishable wizards...

    OOC: I'm like huh, i should be dead... not you. Now I have to rely on Xan saving us all (we're doomed.)

    DM: Edwin showed them how a Red Wizard dies...

    Edwin!

    Alora is very unhappy. She goes into halfling berseker mode and starts slinging bullets with a fury.

    "Well, I just want you to know that I still think your singing is terrible, and if I live through this I will try to bed Skie."

    ooc: oh well, I'll still get to enjoy reading along :)

    Kivan yells at the bowman using his bow.

    "Hey! That's not how you use that bow! Her string needs to be released gently, not twanged like that you clumsy oaf! Stop! You're hurting her!"

    Alora's fury plays havoc with her aim. She misses her shots. Then she hits... Eldoth (with a 1 (critical miss). His head wound leaks blood and brain matter. On the other hand, she does manage to hit one of the archers... a Light wound (1 damage). Eldoth joins Edwin in the afterlife.

    Kivan looks over at Eldoth's lifeless body and shrugs.

    "Better him than me."

    OOC: there we go, not as expected, but here I am. Don't forget to loot my stuff if you live, some of your possessions *maybe* there. Right boo?

    The man turns and fires directly into Kivan's stomach. The arrow tears through several major blood vessels. Kivan is no more. The man drops the bow and draws his broad sword. The other archer fires at Mazzy and misses, then drops his bow as well.

    Oh crap! You're not serious? I just killed Eldoth?

    OMG it's a total party kill! Tomb of Horrors all over again... Oh yeah, it's @LadyRhian

    He's dead jim

    OOC: Damn, Kivan never gets any action. Not even before he died.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    OOC They were a great comedy duo and now they are both dead. Everyone's a critic these days!
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Unfortunately, you did. Firing into combat is always a gamble, especially when there are friends downwind. On the other hand, someone would likely have finished him off sooner or later...

    Kivan's dying words.

    "Urk! Shot... with... my own... bow... The irony..."
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    As there is nobody else from our group to die, I'll fire too.

    Kivan, you mean Kivan, not just someone. Unless he died first then maybe I could lived to rob and run.

  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    DM: @Awong124, apparently, you just pissed the guy off that much. Remember that they also blamed you guys for their friends dying... DM says- mouthing off when you are tied up like meat is likely to get you killed.

    While Minsc and Mazzy charge in I am going to attempt to hide in the shadows and sneak round to do some back-stabbing. I'm too dangerous with a sling and someone might get hurt.

    Good news, your death eats a turn for that guy. Giving the nearly dead Minsc an attempt at victory. I'm sure you did that on purpose, right? Totally the honorable way to go. Now if only Xan would do something useful... oh right, doomed.

  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The two strike out at Minsc and Mazzy, while the two warriors strike back. They miss Minsc, and Mazzy takes 3 points from the broadsword. On the other hand, Minsc and Mazzy kill the two warriors... leaving only the missing mage to worry about.

    OOC Xan may be right this time :)

    It was a great rescue, till everyone died and the baddie got away.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I'm attempting t hide in the shadows and make myself as invisible as the invisible guy. I am also listening to see if I can hear his robes rustling ...
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    Oh, another dying breath.

    "Take... good... care of... Milo. He only... eats... Fancy Feast..."

    With that, Kivan slumps down lifelessly.
