Sparring Ring, Match

EDIT: This event finished! Feel free to role-play the after math of this event in the other thread . I hope it was fun for everyone. If you would like to leave comments or suggestions feel free to post them here or PM me! Thanks. EDIT: For the first round, I've made a small change to the first round. Though you still are not allowed to attack, feel free to enter styles stances or cast your buffs, this way combat can proceed more smoothly. If you don't have any of the listed above you can make intimidate checks and/or other skills. If you haven’t, please read the Adventure Thread Sparring Ring , General first, this is technically part of one thread. Thank you. The sparring ring, general thread will be a thread anyone can post in and role-play in to show off their character and what they can do. Blast some wooden dummies or otherwise. However, I would like to have a bigger sparring match that uses the mission combat system so we can all get use to it. This will be a 2v2 or 3v3 or 4v4 or whatever it turns out to be. I’ll be posting here, DO NOT POST HERE till it starts. Thank you. (NOTE: Please don’t stack all the healers one one side :P ) We are using the mission rules and their timezones, if you don’t know how that works read this. This will be good practice for the missions to work out things that people might not know. However you won't need to make perception checks and such since we call see each other and there really isn't anywhere to hide. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/2612188/7-combat-rules-and-time-slots" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/2612188/7-combat-rules-and-time-slots</a> Here are the timeslots: Time Slot 1 = 9am - 5pm EST (THIS IS 2PM - 10PM GMT) Time Slot 2 = 5pm - 1am EST (10PM - 6AM GMT) Time Slot 3 = 1am - 9am EST (6AM - 2PM GMT) When posting your moves please in bold at the top post what time you are posting for, for example.

DAY 1 TIMESLOT 1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ren decides to start where he is standing currently. "So, I wonder how experienced everyone is." Ren mutters under his breath. Let's test their spirit first. Ren get's ready to fight, first closing his eyes and steeling himself. Raising his head his open's his eyes and unleashes his blood-lust at the person closest to him as well as the one he felt was the most dangerous, Azariah. (It is an intimidating stare)&nbsp; Rolls:&nbsp; Intimidate at Azariah - 24 (Chose randomly) (PM or chat me your DC so I can know how many rounds)&nbsp; Init - 11

Day one slot 1 Zordlon immediatly moves behind armand to provide a buffer between himself and the other team -as he is not very good at taking hits- and glares at Lyon (intemidation check 18 Lyon was chosen randomly init 17.03)&nbsp;

Armand readies himself behind his shield Int ( 16.01)

Day 1 Time Slot 1 Lyon decides to hold his postion with the rest of his team, creating a nice wall to hold of the enemy team which easely prevents any flanking from the enemies. Seeing that Zordlon thought it was a good idea to try and intimidate Lyon he returned the favor by staring him down. (Intimidate Zordlon rolled 18, Initiative rolled 4)

Day 1 Time Slot 1 Pezzack speaks words in the ancient druidic tongue, turning three small chunks of soft clay into magic stones, before drawing and loading his sling. Initiative 17.03

Zordlon is visibly shaken. &nbsp;It appears melodies of the mind effect him easily.

Day 1, Time Slot 1 Prytania felt quite nervous but excited at the same time, she knew that physically, Azariah was a menace to be against. (" Hopefully I'll be able to control him "). She took a deep breath and turned her back to the fight, her eyes shining while she channeled energy. She placed a hand on Lyon's shoulder and whispered with a firm voice: " I'll break Azariah's will, but Armand's healing power exceed mine " - Lyon could feel a small surge of power flowing into him, his eyes now were the ones shining with resolve - " deal with him ". Prytania walked back a bit and anxiously prepared to face Azariah. (OOC Prytania casts Guidance on Lyon; Initiative: 14.02)

OOC I cant get to my computer like I thought. So if I'm allowed to stay in I'll attack the air impressively. (Combat expertise and fighting defensivly, so my ac is 23) Rusty is silent.&nbsp;

Day 1 slot 2 Zordlon takes out his bow and shoots at lyon (hits ac 18 for 7 damage misses) but due to lyons intimidating posture Zordlons hand shakes just enough for the arrow to go off target and bounce harmlessly off Lyons armor.

Day 1 Slot 2 Armand casts Obscuring Mist Armand smiles and waves as the mist rolls over everyone rapidly removing everyone from sight.

Day 1 Slot 2 The sudden apperance of a mist suprised Lyon a bit, but he kept his composure and remebered where the enemies should be. Lyon stepped slowly through the mist towards where the others should be, until he found them.

Day 1, Time Slot 2 As Prytania prepares to ready a spell, Armand casts a thick mist that engulfs everyone on the deck. With the surprise, she doesn't react, so she prepares to cast a spell either way, just in case she sees someone(Cause fear) (OOC If someone gets in vision, Prytania uses Cause fear)

Day 1, Timeslot 1 Azariah's eyes turn to slits, iris's practically glowing a bright yellow. He glared back at both Ren and Prytania, the tieflings hands clenching and unclenching in readiness for the fight ahead. He flinched slightly from the sight of Ren's bloodlust, but would not let it shake him. Day 1, Timeslot 2 Shrouded in mist, Azariah saw a figure coming for him within it, and decided to hold his ground.

Day 1, Timeslot 2 Ren looked around as the mists started to envelope everyone. Dammit this is going to be a nuisense, especially because of the rogue. Well, I'll work with what I have.&nbsp; Armand was 10 feet away from him when it was cast so Ren shuffled forward. Seeing Armand Ren took a swing in the mists. It was hard to see so Ren went with a normal horizontal cut. Ren seemed to have gotten lucky as he caught Armand off guard. At the wooden sword hit the cleric he fell to the ground unconscious. I had wanted to see more of what he could do. I'll make sure I do later.&nbsp; Rolls: Attack - 23 Damage - 13

Day 1, Timeslot 2 Pezzack tries to see his opponents through the mists, cursing at the poor visibility. Thinking he sees a shape in the fog, he tries to fire his magic stone, becoming a ball of wet clay as it hurtles towards its possible target. His missile disappears into the mist, hitting no one. Silently letting go of his sling, the crow-man draws his practice shortsword, and waits for the approaching enemy. Attack: 8

Timeslot 3 Azariah steps over Armand, protecting him from further assault from the bloodmad samurai, lashing out at the one armed swordsman with a swift flurry of attack, only a lash from his chitin tipped tail connecting, the tiefling visibly thrown off his game by Ren's unnerving look and capacity for carnage. (Succesful atk 16, damage 8)

Day 1 Timeslot 3 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ren prepared for the assault as Azariah stepped towards him. First throwing a low kick Ren was able to block with his own leg. Using the forces that Ren exerted to stop his leg Azariah stuck his head forward attempting to bite him. As Ren realized his he brought his sword up, using the flat of the sword pushed the tiefling back. &nbsp; &nbsp; Taking this as an opportunity Ren raised his sword to strike.&nbsp;Spinning around as he was pushed back Azariah threw out his tail in a speedy counter catching the swordsman off guard, Ren's downward slash was defected off his tail. Ren dove backwards (5ft) nearly avoiding the tail however the stinger on the end hit Ren square in the chest. Having lost the exchange, Ren staggered back and stabbed his sword into the ground to quickly rebalance from the attack. Damm that stinger hurt, I never thought that a tail could do so much damage...&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ren quickly tries to identify the where that sneaky rogue may be. (He fails)&nbsp; Rolls:&nbsp; Attack: 14 - Miss Perception - 16

Day 1 Timeslot 3 Pezzack holds his weapon in a ready stance, prepared to strike swiftly when an opponent comes at him from within the mists. He knew his team was losing, but he wasn't going down without a fight; he would get at least a swing at whoever it was before they would take him out.

Day 1 Timeslot 3 This dam mist is making this rather annoying thougth Lyon as the one that stood before him fell by someone elses sword. Soon after it seemed like another opponent had stepped up but with the limited visability it supprised Lyon whom was not prepeared. Lyon tryied swinging the sword but missed horribly. (Nat 1.....)

Day 1 Timeslot 3 Prytania's spell fizzled in her hands as she finished casting, no minds in sight to affect, but at least no one had approached her. She heard combat noise ahead, so she took a second to identify the threats. She managed to hear the rogue sneaking around. Prytania rushed to him, so he couldn't flank the main group. Avoiding the main melee, Prytania ran as fast as she could, shouting to call Rusty's attention (" Zordlon's there, help me out Viggo! "). But she found Zordlon sooner than expected, she abruptly stopped in front of him, prepared for combat

EDIT: Time frame 3 day 1 Zordlon takes out his rapier and lashes out at Prytania though in the darkness he can't really see much (attack roll 4)

Day 2 Timeslot 1 Lyon has now gotten back his composure from the suprising events of people suddently comming out of the mist. Now ready to swing the blade he swings in a wide arch and gives Azariah a good hit in the shoulder. (Att Nat 20 but only 12 on the confirm with Dmg of 12)

Time slot 1 day 2 Zordlon takes another swing at prytania scraping against her armor but any damage done is superficial at best (hit missed) and seeing he's out numbered Zordlon takes a step back (5ft)

Day 1 Time slot 3 As fog flowed over the field, he lost sight of his opponents. Cautiously he advances into the mist. Inside the mist he hears, Attack the Cleric! OOC: Hit AC 17 for 7 Damage, the fog did not hinder my attack, fighting defensively.

Day 2 Timeslot 1 Zordlon threw a good thurst at her chest and jumped back to the shadows, luckily the armor deflected the blow. Prytania, angered, advanced into the mist swinging her sword at every shadow she could find, but the sneaky elf was never there when her sword had to connect. Either way, she was commited to chase him down.

Day 2 time slot 1 Rusty silently continued his attack. Being cautious he pulled his attack to soon, only glancing Zordlon's soft armor for no effect. I should have go all out, he would have fallen...now I'm in a bad position or would be if they wee more organized. "Yield Zordlon, you risk serious injury staying in the fight. It's just a sparing match". OOC: missed vs AC fighting defensively.

Azariah moved to Ren and released another flurry of blows, but he lost this exchange, clearly unnerved still, and worried, his group was going out quickly, and he was surrounded by warriors far better armored than any on his sside... Really it seemed a little unfair.&nbsp; His blows failed to connect, they were much the same as last time, and he knew he'd have to change tack to have a shot against the frighteningly dexterous samurai (All attacks miss)

Day 2 Timeslot 1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Azariah stepped forward and unleashed another flurry of blows. Having seen it once, and being in fog Ren was able to ovoid the blows. As Azariah finished his assault he spent a secound to observe his teammate, perhaps he was worried about them. Regardless Ren took the opportunity to strike out at Azariah. The tiefling noticed the strike at the last possible moment and sidestepped to the right. Ren quickly changed the trajectory of his blade, creating a longer curve. In an it came down, barely hitting Azariah's leg.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ren had taken a 5ft step to his left to execute that attack. Looking around he noticed that Zordlon was getting double teamed and Pezzack was waiting for his chance to strike.&nbsp; Rolls:&nbsp; Attack - 16&nbsp; Concealment (1 is miss) - 3 Damage - 7&nbsp; Perception to see in fog - 20

Day 2 Timeslot 1 Pezzack looks through the fog, seeking an enemy. (Perception 17) He thinks he sees someone south of him. Stepping forward, Pezzack finds Armand unconscious on the ground, and Rusty next to him. Pezzack swings his wooden practice blade at the large fighter, but only hits his armor. (Attack roll 15, probably a miss.)

DAY 2 TIMESLOT 2 Zordlon takes a 5 ft away from Rusty and strikes against prytania yet again scraping her armor but little more (attack 14)&nbsp;

Day 2 Time Slot 2 Rusty moves into a flank on a more dangerous&nbsp;opponent&nbsp;and swings, making no contact. He says nothing, focused on the remaining. OOC: Joins the natural 1 club.

Day 2 Time Slot 2 Prytania's sword was getting closer and closer to Zordlon, he uselessly scraped her shield here and there but couldn't find an opening. Then Prytania saw him clearly for a second: With all her strength she charged forward, her sword slashing the shadows around her and landing on Zordlon's skull, then passing through it like butter... Prytania let off a frustration grunt, she could had sworn that her sword connected. Visibly angry, she continued her onslaught. (OOC Attack roll 21, crit confirmation 14, concealment roll 1)

Day 2 Time Slot 2 Pezzack watches his teammates fall one by one, knowing that soon he will likely be surrounded. This drives the black-feathered priest to shift around the heavily-armed Lyon, bringing him within hitting distance of Ren. Pezzack had seen the like of Ren's sword many times before, since it came from the same land that the tengu did. He didn't know how easily the doctor could be hit, but Pezzack thought it would be easier than against the heavy armors of the fighter and the paladin. With both blade and beak, he strove to take out the mysterious stranger with the deadly sword. The fast-moving doctor easily avoided the blows, however. (OOC: 5' shift, and a full attack; Attack roll for shortsword 12, bite 7.)

Yet again Lyon tryies is luck against the opponent Lyon knows to be the strongest Azariah, but this time around his sword seems to go short of his opponent whom seemed to have moved a bit since their last exchange. (13 to hit which = a miss...)

Azariah was thrown forward by the sudden blow to the back of his shoulder, not having seen it coming, he tried his best to turn the blow away with a red aura bursting into being around the tiefling, but the weapon flew right through it. The attack was followed up on by Ren kicking him full in the skull. The tiefling dropped like a sack of bricks, senses knocked out of him.

Day 2 Timeslot 3 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;As Pezzack dashed to the swordsman, by a stroke of luck Ren parried in time. This druid's swordsmanship is not bad. Readying another attack Ren raised his sword and slashes downward, landing a good hit on the bird-man.&nbsp; Rolls: Attack - 21 Concealment (1 is miss) - 4 Damage - 12

Day 2 Timeslot 3 Zordlon after almost getting his head smashed in by Prytania drops his&nbsp;weapon&nbsp;and&nbsp;concedes&nbsp;

Day 2 Timeslot 3 Pezzack reeled from the terrific blow by Ren. Knowing he couldn't take another blow, Pezzack desperately swings his weapon at the doctor's belly, hard enough to push some of Ren breath out of him. It was now or never for scoring a hit. Once he made his attack, Pezzack keeps his footwork going, trying to keep ahead of Rusty and evade being flanked. (OOC: Attack roll 24, confirm 17, damage 5, +3 if crit; bite attack 15, damage 3; followed by 5' step)

Day 2 Timeslot 3 A scream stopped Prytania's flurry of slashes: " I surrender " - said Zordlon while dropping his rapier - But it certainly didn't stop her anger: " You have to be f******* kidding me Zordlon, I was so close...&nbsp; Gah! " she screamed as she kicked Zordlon's rapier out of pure frustration. Bloodthirsty, she turned to the noises of the neighbouring battle, there she found a 3 way brawl between Pezzack Lyon and Ren. She thrusted her sword to hit the side of the druid, but the druid himself jumped onto Ren, dodging the attack without even noticing

Day 2 Timeslot 3 Seeing no enemies he wanders through the &nbsp;mist, using the line of people as a guide. Circling around clockwise he finds Pezzack and takes a swing and misses. I had given up on finding him, I guess I got lucky. OOC: chose random direction to circle the group and rolled low on my attack.

Day 3 Time slot 1 Rusty steps into a flank Pezzack and attacks again sliping his blade through the fog, scoring a solid hit! About time. I hope I pulled my swing enough to not seriously injure him. It is not much of a fight anymore. "You are outnumbered, Well fought. That cloud was a big surprise." Rusty is sincere but it kinda comes out wrong (Diplomacy 9) OOC: 21 to hit, the fog did not hinder the attack (spending 1 stamina to hit 22 AC to be safe), 5 Damage (minimum).

Even with a light blow, Pezzack couldn't take any more. Rusty's blow drops the tengu to the ground, ending the fight.

"Prytanna,can you channel and heal the wounded?" Rusty checks Pezzack, but is unable to assess the damage.&nbsp; OOC: heal check, 9, to stabilize failed.

FINISH &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ren walks up to Pezzack and tries to give first aid, however he still a little off from the battle. After backing off Ren goes around and provides first aid (taking 10) to everyone unconscious. "Hey Prytania, can you use divine magics to heal everyone? Or at least heal Armand so that he may channel his energy?"&nbsp; This event is done, feel free to role-play the after math of this event in the&nbsp; other thread . I hope it was fun for everyone. If you would like to leave comments or suggestions feel free to post them here or PM me! Thanks.&nbsp;
