Pleased at their combined success in downing the noted Plain One Wikk privately cheers the others on as he loads another bolt. Taking careful aim at the man standing beside the late cultist (11, 5) he will exhale with his trigger squeeze. Almost mechanically his arm slides back along his narrow torso to reach into the belt quiver of bolts as he watches for an impact from his shot.

Grigory's opponent sees him coming and just manages to dodge the blow before it hits.

Kull enters the battle, crying out but to no effect. His attack is far more effective, severing the cultist into two parts, both of which twist and writhe on the ground as he dies.

Wikk strikes the other cultist with a bolt, but hits only the shoulder. The cultist cries out in pain and grasps at bolt. He turns, ready to run away.

It's now your turn, followed by the cultists

Notes
  • Grigory you still have an extra turn
  • Celaena it's unclear to me where you're moving, or who you're attacking. Take care that the ledge on the west and north would require you to jump down (which is fine, just letting you know the terrain). You also have two turns.
  • Arlette you still have your first round turn
  • Ludo you still have your first round turn
  • Kull, you've made your surprise round turn, you still have another turn for the first round of battle.

Arlette, impressed and chuffed that she took out the Plain One, loads and aims for the other cultist on the island overly confident, as usual, that she alone will finish the job, though she'll allow the others to claim some credit as she's not all about the glory.

Kull grunts as he lifts his axe over his head and strikes down at the cultist at 11/15.
hit dice 1d20+7
damage dice 1d12+5
While he strikes he realises that it could be quite usefull to leave one or two cultists alive for later actions.

Celaena moves forward and takes two swings at one of the cultists with her scimitar. She hits once, injuring the woman severely. Her blows are followed by the rage of Kull, who swings mightily. The cultist woman is quick on her feet and avoids what would have been the killing blow.

Meanwhile, Grigori continues his attack. He connects and injures his opponent, again, a woman.

Arlette loads and fires again, hitting the cultist that Wikk had just put a bolt in. The cultist falls over, gasping for breath as he dies next to the body of his colleague.

(I'll give ludo a little bit more time to post, and then we'll move onto the cultists round)

Seeing the quick work made of the first man by Arlette and the newcomer, Ludo tries to impress them too. He knows his place is more morale focused, but, it'd be nice to be able to show off somewhat too. Arlette's teasing was all in good faith, and Ludo enjoyed it, but, he wanted to show he could do something too. Plus, good practice for when he makes those boomsticks his.

And so he looses a bolt at the other man on the island (11,5).

Ludo misses the mark, but is relieved to see the man die anyway (sorry Ludo, I forgot to scratch him out, Arlette had already killed him.

The cultist next to Grigori acts first, she mouths some infernal words under her breath while wiggling her fingers, eventually pointing the palm of her hand at the dwarf. As she does say, I bright and sparkling ray bursts out toward Grigori.

1d20+4

The cultist furthest from the action rushes toward her companion, she places a hand on her companions shoulder. She too starts muttering, while drawing in the air with her other hand. When the second hand makes contact... nothing appears to happen.

But the cultist she touched, he steps forward, draws his sword, and moves around behind Celaena. He attacks.

1d20+2

The final cultist attacks Celaena as well, bolstered by her companion flanking her from behind.

1d20+2

The ray of sparks hit Grigori directly in the chest. Grigory your STR is reduced by the following amount for the next minute (or 10 combat rounds). This will affect your attack rolls etc (so your STR bonus to attack and damage may now be a negative).

1d6+2

The two attacks at Celaena are well timed, it's impossible for her to move out of the way. They also risk two consecutive critical hits! Confirmation of crits:

1d20+2
1d20+2
