Wait, if Brennen is firing his blast as a readied action in response to the ogre mage's attack, how does it know that Brennen is a threat to target him in the first place?

Sorry, didn't realise it was a readied blast as the ogre wasn't casting spells.

In any event the mage rolled a 2 for it's attack so it's safe to say whoever he was shooting at - he missed.

Vadania had stepped away from the ogre, so she's too far to get an AOP, but wouldn't Ylva get one? Assuming she does...

As the guard tries to crawl off the bridge, Ylva goes for an arm, leg, or maybe even his throat, whatever she can get a bite of.

Is the Ogre Mage standing or flying? Is he in Charge range of Ylva?

With the Ogre fighter no longer a threat, Vadania once again moves to use the end of the bridge for cover. Since magic doesn't seem to be working, she'll try her magically enhanced bow.

He is. Not especially high but still too high to charge.

The ogre warrior manages to roll into the water without further injury and floats under the bridge downstream past Brennen, shield overhead. Brennen and Vadania have more success with their target however as several of their shots penetrate the mages defenses.


[Tag Ka'lion for normal action - the first roll was his AoO. He is no longer engaged]

[sageaqua]

Ka'lion runs to his horse grabs his bow, calls off his owls and send them to follow the ogre in the river and shoots the ogre mage.

Ka'lion grabs for his bow, but in his haste it gets entangled in his other possessions and takes a while to draw.


The ogre in the water hasn't gotten far, shield overhead it is making its way downstream away from the mill under the bridge - it will cross in-front of Brennen as it does so, but is not currently heading for the shore.


[Is Brennen holding his action again or does he want to take a different one?]

[Jasmine]

Same action for Brennen.

Tink uses faerie fire on the ogre mage, and starts following the ogre fighter downstream.

SR roll for tink, attack/damage/SR roll for Brennen for the ogres action.

The faerie fire causes the ogre to pause in its attacks to summon an aura of darkness around itself, while below the ogre warrior splashes down the river almost entirely below the surface of the water and completely concealed by the large wooden tower shield he holds overhead - crossing past Brennen and heading straight downstream at the best pace he can manage.


Ongoing damage 4 Vadania, 6 Brennen - though the mages magic appears to be waning.

Ka'lion untangles his bow and shoots the ogre in the water.

Vadania will hide from the ogre mage (using the end of the bridge for cover) while directing a lightning bolt at the ogre fighter floating downstream. Being in the water isn't a good place to hide from lightning....

Damage: hI1BoEoCp_1-6p_1-6p_1-6=13

Ylva growls at the ogre mage but has no way to reach it.1-6�1-6�1-6

[Jasmine]

Brennen's starting to feel his injuries, but there's no time to think about that now. He moves behind whatever cover he can find.

Another readied action to shoot the ogre mage if it takes any action other than staying perfectly still and doing nothing. If it's resorting to a bow, it may be out of offensive spells, but it could also be bluffing, so it's still worth trying to disrupt its casting if it tries something.

Auto-succeed on Concentration.

Tink dives into the water underneath the ogre fighter and magic missiles him from behind so the tower shield isn't in the way. There's nothing she can do against the mage, but if she can bring back that healing belt, it could be a big help for the party. p_1-4p_1-4+2 damage.1-20�1-20�1-6�1-6�1-6�1-6�1-4�1-4

The ogre stops swimming and starts sinking as he is finally overcome by his injuries. Vadania too collapses at the ogres magic takes its toll (5 damage = 0hp) while the field of magic burning at Brennen dissipates at last (2 damage).

The ogre mage pulls further away, gaining altitude while firing towards the group, taking him beyond range of further fire from Brennens. As Ka'lion looks up from below he feels an odd surge of power and cold surging through him and the ogre mage reacts with concern, glaring down towards the barbarian in clear surprise. Whatever this power was leaves Ka'lion feeling somewhat fatigued.

The ogres attention is also drawn to another and Brennen follows the creatures gaze to the treeline where a new figure has appeared, a human girl with a light crossbow though she doesn't seem like much of a warrior.

Ka'lion barrows Vadanias healing ring and casts cure light wounds on Vedanta, then gives her back her ring.

[Jasmine]

Brennen readies an action to teleport underneath the bridge (and leave an image of himself behind) if the ogre mage fires on him. He knows that ogre mages are good enough at running away that he probably won't be able to stop it if that's what it wants to do, so flying up to give chase is unlikely to pan out profitably, especially given his injuries.

Tink tries unbuckling and taking the dead ogre's belt, and maybe pushing him toward the shore if possible.

Ah! So not unconscious, only disabled! She can still heal herself.

[harknail]

Barely consious, Vadania summon up the last of the healing from her ring, using it to enhance a healing cantrip.

Seeing that his magic wasn't enough to fell the party, the flying ogre pulls away seeming to vanish into the shadowy light around him. Brennen is able to track what he believes to be the mages position for a short while before losing track of him entirely.

Below the surface of the water Tink struggles to do much with the belt - it backs a buckle, being a wide leather sash across the ogres chest adorned with various fetishes.

The newcomer is peering out from behind a large rock on the bank while Ka'lion hides exhausted next to Vadania at the end of the bridge.


[Tag all - not in combat at the moment]


(3 final damage to Vadania and the spell ends)

Did it have one left, or was Ka'lion able to use a charge as well?
