Oh right, I missed the fact you were moving, Ionly looked at the last post. You should be up and left one square from Badge (the drow with a red x )


Who is Bort stabbing? Just a random commoner?

Dog if possible, air otherwise in case of invisible wind monsters. We've seen what happened when you attack the commoners...

Rex smiles smugly as he knows something the rest doesn't and moves towards the dog

Bort decides to swing at the air around him, in case there should be invisible attackers or the dog suddenly teleports in front of him. Those around him seems a bit disconcerted but not hostile.

The blink dog sees that the situation is going bad, tears into the one guy and blinks away with a piece of him as it vanishes from the group.

"Oh, come on!"

Karn looks up into the stands, gauging the crowd's reaction. Are they frustrated? Amused? Placing bets? Or is the blood being spilled satisfying them?

He turns back to his fellow fighters. "All right, everyone. Spread out. Small groups all around the arena. We can finish this thing if we just make sure it doesn't have room to escape. If it pops up near you, stab it."

Karn moves southeast, going towards where the dog is now, but heading around the south side of the box.

Viskek is glad for the brief reprieve, and stays put, giving orders to the commoners:

"You heard him! Make a line! You two go south to the silver dragonborn! The rest of you stay here. And give me that..."

Varsk grabs a dagger from one of the commoners, runs 20 feet right and hurls the weapon at the dog (50 foot throw, improvised weapon):

Improv. Throw: 2D20.LOW(1)+4 = [20, 1]+4 = 5

Oops.

Karn attempts to rally the troops alongside Viskek. This all seem rather epic and heroic right up to the point where Viskek grabs the dagger from an unsuspecting guy that let it happen. He looks in awe as Viskek runs forward, takes aim and uses his whole body to bring power to the throw of the dagger. He throws it with all his might and looks forward, confused as he apparently threw it out of the stage! Or not as the dagger falls straight down on his head, hurting him but mostly his pride and the respect of the commoners. They were all on board, but decides to settle for staying in a group to try prevent it from grabbing any of them.

The two guys next to Bort sees the poor retarded guy fighting air and decides to take their chances with the dog. One guy runs up to it and strike it while the other throws his dagger next to it and picks up a new one from the corpse.

Bort's angry, stomping closer to the dog before trying to throw one of his daggers at it:

_: 2D20.LOW(1)+3 = [10, 8]+3 = 11
1D2+3 = [2]+3 = 5


edit: Actually, turns out Bort is barely in melee range, so he's gonna stab it instead. You can use the roll above- Second hit is a miss anyways, but I think the first one hits..?

(If Rez moves due east, is the dog within 15 ft of him?))

Rez heads due east and takes a deep breath... ((can I hold action to use my dragon breath on the dog if it comes in range?)).

Rez moves towards the dog and take a big breath of incoming disappointment as Bort swoops in and kills the poor doggie. There's a cheer from the crowd as it collapses and a slight murmur from the master seats.

(I guess dashing is moot.)

That's all the dogs. No more enemies.

Karn waves to the crowd and poses as he tries to listen to the conversation in the master seats, but he's on the wrong side of the arena now, and it's harder to hear over the cheering crowd.

Perception: 1D20+1 = [8]+1 = 9

He should know from experience what to do now. Tear down the box? Or head for the exits to clear the arena for the next bout?

"Bort no longer like game... Bort want go home..." Bort mutters only barely audible to anyone close enough to listen.

Viskek looks around at the other survivors of the arena and the bloody mess of corpses lying in the dirt. He walks over to the one / two animals he killed and pulls a fang from each of them.

Kneeling next to the creatures, he quietly promises each one:

"Your death brings me strength. I will use it as best as I can."

Clutching the bloody teeth in his bleeding fist, he stands up and bellows back at the crowd, acknowledging his victory in the battle and letting the cheers energise him. He hates them all, but he'll be damned if he lets them kill him in this cursed arena.

Usually there is a short finishing speech/welcoming speech to the next combatants. Not quite off turn orders yet, so anything you want to do on your turn Spider?

Rez, move North and gives a bellowing roar before speaking to the man in front of him. "Ssorry, they need more of uss to die." Swinging the dog corpse back and over his head, Rez smashes it into the commoner.

Improvised dog attack...: 1D20+4 = [16]+4 = 20

Not sure what dog damage is, but he's got +4 strength.

I'm going to say it will be 1d3 just due to the weight of it.

"Haha! The silvered one got it right, you are far to many left. The doors won't open before half of you are gone! Now give us a show!"

Bort, already injured, just readies himself to dodge while hoping the two commoners near him don't want to kill the retarded person first.

The commoner goes as the dog slams into it. Leaving only one nervous commoner on the east side. He tried to avoid Borts wild swinging but ended up right next to it.

(I count 14 dead and 15 alive, unless I'm messing something up.)

Karn rips open the box.
