Wild ARMs: Group 1, Chapter 1, Good Samaritans or Mercenaries... - Page 5

Jasper saw Rebecca's display, and since the hobs were beginning to scatter, he decided to abandon stealth and attempt to scare the hobs heading in his direction back towards the carts. He ran at the group, yelling and waving his arms in a menacing fashion.

[Still trying to get into melee, making an Intimidate check at the same time]

[OOC] krylo is lazy, so I'm posting this for him. [/OOC]

The horse-mounted hob continued charging straight at Leon in an attempt to mow him down, coming startlingly close.

The rest of the hobs, startled by Rebecca and Jasper's shouting, engaged in the worst combat maneuver any of the Drifters had seen all day and ran around in circles, bumping into one another in their panic. They were trying to flee and failing miserably.

Turn order:
Ecurt
RMB
MT
guru
the hobs

Rebecca, not slowing her pace until she reached her target, lowered her axe to hob height and swung it horizontally at the first hob she ran into.

Truce · 07-16-2006, 10:53 PM

Truce, now with his Arbalest and crossbow bolts, focused his attention to the panicked goblins. Raising his weapon, he took his time aiming at the goblin closest to him-the same one (he thought) that had narrowly dodged his earlier attack. Relishing this moment, he paused before finally pulling the trigger.

Leon grinned as the horse mounted hob drew closer. He readied himself and charged as fast as he could. With a running start he jumped at the hob and attempted to kick it off the horse.

[OOC: Am I close enough to do that?]

gurusloth · 07-18-2006, 03:22 AM

[Jasper continues moving into melee. As far as I can tell, I'm still at least 20 feet away from the nearest hob due to my slow run speed. Lemme know if this is wrong and/or when I am able to actually make a melee attack.]

"Huff, huff, huff...gettin' out of shape lately..."

Krylo · 07-18-2006, 11:07 PM

(OOC: Just on the basis that making you run any further is lame, you can attack this next round, guru)

Truce's crossbow bolt smashed into the hob's back, embedding itself in the creature's flesh painfully and causing it to scream in agony. (-1)

Leon spun and delivered his heel to the side of the riding Hob's head viciously, sending the poor creaturing smashing into the dirt, and sliding across it. (-2)

The large battle-axe came down from Rebbeca's powerful arms and sundered the hob she was attacking completely in two. The creature had no time to even think as the axe smashed into the ground under it's own weight, and the girl's own considerable strength. It's bloody entrails littering the ground.

(8)
The hob which Ecurt shot, spun about, enraged by its pain and began to charge him, screaming out some unintelligible gibberish as it wielded it's axe. The sounds however, seemed to rally many of the other hobs who also charged. Roughly half of them would be in striking distance soon. (four hobs your way)

The other half, however, quickly decided where they wanted to go and charged toward Jasper, as that he was as far away from Rebecca as they could get, brandishing their weapons and intending to strike him down as they made good their retreat. (three hobs your way)

This left only one, who could do little more than pull himself up off the ground in a dazed stupor.

Truce · 07-18-2006, 11:19 PM

Focusing his spirit, Truce called upon the power of his signature move-Swift Shadow-to increase his responsiveness (assuming FP is equal or greater than 25). Then, he tried to as stealthily as he could move eleven feet to his left, before aiming at one of the uninjured hobs that were charging at him and firing at the hob.

Krylo · 07-18-2006, 11:24 PM

(oh yeah, shit, init.

Ecurt-13
MT-11
Three uninjured hobs
RMB-8
two uninjured hobs (one dead via ecurt)
Guru-4
Last uninjured hob
Two injured hobs

Also, Ecurt, you got 17 successes, so you have 17 rounds with ludi-speed. Sixteen now.)

Truce's crossbow bolt entered directly into the hob's eye, dropping the creature dead immediately.

mammothtank · 07-19-2006, 01:07 AM

Yanking her axe out of the dirt, Rebecca ran off to one side of the pack of hobs charging at Jasper in an attempt to flank them.

[Not attacking this turn, just dashing]

Krylo · 07-19-2006, 02:43 AM

The hobs moved toward their respective targets, none of them close enough to get within striking range, currently. Though Jasper found two of them entering range for his attacks.

(OOC: If you're going to split your dice to make room for dodges and/or parries, tell me how many splits you're doing)
