Tex struggles again, giving it as much as he can, finally able to break free, he moves as far as he can to the top of the ledge.

Lola continues to stand guard with crossbow ready in case a shot comes clear from above or down the tunnel.

[ooc]Third week in a row of posting this: waiting for Marcus[/ooc]

[Duniagdra]

Sorry. I was in Atlanta with poor service. I should mentioned this before leaving, but was last minute decision related to a second company I'm working with.

Marcus is dying. I don't have his sheet, but he will try to save from bleeding out.

[Duniagdra]

He will continue to do so until dead or aid is given.

[patransom]

Round 4 Continues

Perhaps it's all the goo that's covering him helping to stop the bleeding, but Marcus manages to stabilize.

Since no one bothers to point out that the party could really use some more help, Cyrius continues to stand watch at the lower tunnel entrance.

Prost quietly moves sideways, taking what cover is available, aims, and fires at Grimlock Archer 1 with his MW Light crossbow. He misses.

Tex struggles again, giving it as much as he can. He thinks he's almost broken free, but discovers that it's not quite enough [The STR DC to break free is 17, not 15, sorry]

Worrell fires again, hoping for a better result this time. Again he misses.

Lola continues to stand guard with crossbow ready in case a shot comes clear from above or down the tunnel.

Round 5 Begins

Grimlock archer 1 turns his attention to Prost and, rather luckily, manages to hit with one of his two shots [6 hp damage]

Grimlock archer 2 starts firing at Tex. He hits twice. Tex is knocked unconscious. Fortunately, he's still stuck to the cliff face by the goo, otherwise he'd be in danger of falling [11 hp damage total puts Tex at -1 hp and bleeding].

ACTIVE EFFECTS

Those on the floor of the cavern can shoot at the grimlocks on the ledge, but the grimlocks have cover (+4 AC). They do not have cover against Prost up above. Note that Tex will fall off the wall when the tanglefoot bag evaporates...

[JPetherick]

Trusting to his armor to protect him, Worrell drops his bow and moves to the base of the cliff where the rope hangs. Gripping the rope and using the spikes as footholds, he beings to climb upwards towards his injured companions. Or, he attempts to but makes no progress upwards. So, instead, he calls upon his connection to MItra and allows some of his lord's holy energy to flow through his body.

Round 5 Continues

Marcus remains unconscious and covered in goo.

Cyrius continues to stand watch at the lower tunnel entrance.

Some help up here! Tex is down... Prost yells out, just before firing again on Grimlock Archer 1. He misses, then moves quickly, but stealthily, out of the line of sight of the creatures [As a note, you took a -5 penalty on the stealth check for moving greater than 1/2 speed. This is irrelevant, because you are in range of the Grimlock's scent ability and thus can't hide from them anyway. However, anything 1 square back from the edge of the cliff gives you total cover against them, and vice versa.]

Stuck to the wall, Tex bleeds [1 hp damage, down to -2]

Trusting to his armor to protect him, Worrell drops his bow and moves to the base of the cliff where the rope hangs. Gripping the rope and using the spikes as footholds, he tries to climb upwards towards his injured companions, but makes no progress. So, instead, he calls upon his connection to MItra and allows some of his lord's holy energy to flow through his body. Tex and, coincidentally, Lola, are healed a little [6 hp each]. Tex finds himself conscious, but still stuck to the wall, covered in goo.

Lola moves slowly down the hallway and looks to see if there is a way up. With her sunrod still on the floor in the previous chamber, she can only make out some of what's ahead in the dim light. The passageway emerges at the base of what appears to be another vertical shaft. A large pile of rocks and stony debris is piled up ahead. It might provide a ramp upwards, although where it leads is lost in darkness.

Round 6 Begins

Deciding that Worrel is now the most dangerous threat, the archers rain arrows down on him. One of the four arrows is a lucky shot that finds a chink in Worrel's armor [a possible crit that did not confirm, 5 hp damage]

ACTIVE EFFECTS

Those on the floor of the cavern can shoot at the grimlocks on the ledge, but the grimlocks have cover (+4 AC). They do not have cover from up above. Prost and the Grimlocks do not have line of effect at all right now. Bless: +1 morale bonus on attack rolls and on saving throws against fear effects for all PCs except Prost, 38 rounds left Round 6 Continues Marcus Tilsworth: empty handed, 5 elemental rays left, 24 bolts left + 1 MW bolt, 27 hp damage puts him at -5, stabilized, tanglefoot bag (–2 on attack rolls and a –4 to Dexterity, but still able to move at half speed) 2 rnds left Cyrius of the Sudden Blade: mind blade and buckler readied, uninjured Evan Prost: loaded crossbow readied, 16 bolts left, darkvision 171.7 min, 7 hp damage, tanglefoot bag (–2 on attack rolls and a –4 to Dexterity, but still able to move at half speed) 2 rnds left Texudus TreeBender: climbing, 13 arrows left, 48 hp damage, tanglefoot bag (–2 on attack rolls and a –4 to Dexterity, glued to the wall, unable to move, lucky for him right now) 1 rnds left Worrel: longbow dropped at 516, empty handed, 113 arrows left, 5 hp damage Lola: loaded crossbow readied, sunrod dropped at 616, 33 bolts left, uninjured Round 7 Begins Grimlock Archer 1 - 1 hp damage Grimlock Archer 2

[Duniagdra]

Marcus awaits his companion's success and aid.

[smeltdm]

Prost moves to 0614 as quietly as he can. Taking what cover is available, laying prone, he will then start to carefully administer his last potion cure light wounds to Marcus.

[CGM3]

Heeding Prost's call for help, and confident Lola can take care of herself, Cyrius moves back to 0615 (takes a full move action) and dissipates his mind blade, then begins ascending the cliff face using the spikes for hand- and foot-holds.

Lola will go back to the battle, and check to see if the sun rod is the only light. If it is she will light her lantern, tell those on the ground there appears to be a path which might lead up and then head back to the path.

[ooc]On my sheet I have one spot that says I have 1 channel energy left in another I show 6 left. Have we rested since I used them all up and I forgot to update? If so, I will make a change to my plans before going up the path.[/ooc]

[JPetherick]

Worrell tries to climb again, hoping to make it up closer to Tex and help his companion get free. He makes it partway up, reaching 10 feet above the floor.

Round 6 Continues

Marcus remains unconscious and covered in goo.

Cyrius moves back to the cliff and begins climbing.

Prost moves over behind Marcus as quietly as he can. Taking what cover is available, he lies down prone and retrieves his last cure light wounds potion from his pack.

Tex finds himself conscious again and struggles with the tanglefoot goo. As he does so, the sticky gunk finally hardens and breaks off. Tex finds himself free again.

Worrell tries to climb again, hoping to make it up closer to Tex and help his companion. He makes it partway up, reaching 10 feet above the floor.

Lola goes back into the battle area, and, seeing her friends in trouble, channels her healing energy on them [Tex and Worrel each heal 4 hp. Technically, given Lola's position, Grimlock Archer 1 should heal, too. However, you guys need all the help you can get, so I'm not going to worry about it as long as Lola moves forward to the base of the wall next round.]

Round 7 Begins

Seeing Tex free again, Grimlock Archer 1 flings another tanglefoot bag at him. Once again, he hits and Tex finds himself once again covered in goo [tanglefoot bag: –2 on attack rolls and a –4 to Dexterity, needs a DC15 Reflex save or glued to wall, unable to move]

Grimlock Archer 2 continues to rain arrows down on Worrel. He misses twice.

ACTIVE EFFECTS

Those on the floor of the cavern can shoot at the grimlocks on the ledge, but the grimlocks have cover (+4 AC). They do not have cover from up above.
