CH. 11: Dark Side of the Mond

[BishGada]

Baeros tries to knock his own attacker to the water swinging both swords at it then continuing with momentum and driving his shoulder hard at it's chest.

[Nuke]

Val tries to move to the front line and stab again.

init, hit and damage (1d10=9, 1d20=13, 1d6+4=7)

[JadedDM]

Ouragana moves back, although she's not actually in Val's way at all.

Takit bites at his opponent again, but is unable to do any real damage to its putrid flesh.

Jocelyn places a stone in her sling and fires it at the zombie fighting Baeros. The rock soars overhead and bumps off the hull of the ship before plunking into the water with a small splash.

Baeros strikes at his opponent with his long sword in hopes of knocking her into the water. However, now that the zombies are prepared for such things, he finds it is much harder to knock them down. However, he is able to succeed with his short sword, shoving the wounded zombie into the water. It splashes wildly before sinking to the bottom. At the same time, Brock cuts down the zombie fighting Takit with his axe.

Meanwhile, up on the ship, the sailors continue to fend off their own opponent with minimal success. It's clear they are not trained to fight such supernatural abominations.

With the zombies' frontline down, Val is able to shove her way past Takit to reach the ones beyond it. She strikes at one of the zombies, now having plenty of elbow room. However, this also puts her in a very vulnerable position. The remaining zombies swarm right at her, and she no longer has the protection of the others.

However, she's able to fend off most of their blows, and one even trips and falls at her feet. But she gets hit twice in the process.

"Val! You aren't invincible!" Jocelyn cries out as she fires another stone in her sling and lets it fly at one of the zombies fighting Val.

[Breila]

Out of spells and not able to get into cantrip range, Ouragana can#t fight this round.
So she turns around to see what the situation is behind them, is there any friend or foe in sight?

[BishGada]

Seeing the fallen zombie at his feet Baeros seizes the opportunity trying to dismember it, then if possible to step above it and board the bridge between the zombie attacking the sailors and the one still on the pier. At the same time he gestures Takit to continue the attack knowing he is trained to attack the closest opponent.

============================================================
(OOC: Init Long/Short/Takit, Hit Long/Short/Takit, Dmg Long/Short/Takit (7/5/8,8(AC8)/21(Critical)/16(AC2),6/7/4)
I didn't add any attack bonus of the fallen zombie but if there are any I think the long sword hits too. And I re-rolled the short sword as 2d6+2 for the critical hit (9)
Baeros attacks Zombie 05 and Takit zombie 11.
Nuke, even unlucky to be hit by a critical hit you still lost only two HP. This is an amazing mixture of bad luck and good luck!! )

[Nuke]

Val is getting a little agitated at this point, and grunts as she stabs again.

init, hit and damage (1d10=1, 1d20=9, 1d6+4=8)

and again....

hit and damage attack 2 (1d20=1, 1d6+4=7)

O.O

[JadedDM]

In all of the chaos of the melee, everyone's focus is on the battle. Only Ouragana thinks to look behind them. Turning around, she immediately spots another small horde of undead approaching, likely having been drawn by all of the commotion. There is about a dozen of them and they are just reaching the beginning of the pier. They are slow moving, though, and likely won't reach the party for another couple of minutes.

Baeros quickly dispatches the zombie that fell prone, then hops over its body and jumps up onto the plank, positioning himself between two zombies. He can see that the sailors are still fighting off that same zombie with little luck. The zombie at the end of the plank turns away from Val and strikes at Baeros, punching him across his mouth.

Val strikes at the same zombie again as before, finishing it off with her masterwork trident.

Takit and Jocelyn both team up against another zombie. The dog grabs hold of the zombie's ankle with his teeth while Jocelyn beans it with a sling stone. Brock moves in to finish it off with his axe, but slips in zombie blood and drops his axe onto the pier.

After fending off several zombie attacks, Val then strikes at a newcomer, but the creature knocks the weapon from her hand and it clatters to the dock at her feet.

[Breila]

"There are more of them coming!" Ouragana tries to shout over the clamor of the battle, but with her wispy voice, it is doubtful that Val or Bearos will hear her.
She watches the approaching group, trying to find a way she can trip one or several of them in the front line. A cantrip would be best so she can act from at least a little distance...

[BishGada]

Finding himself between two opponents Baeros takes a position that will not uncover his back to anyone of them which forcing him to swing with the short sword at the back of the zombie attacking the sailors and with the long at the zombie near the plank.

"We need to finish the rest off, and get on the ship!" Jocelyn calls out as she targets the zombie attacking Baeros.

"Damn it" Val exclaims as she reaches to pick up her trident. Gathering herself, she again tries to skewer another zombie. (#8)

"What about Areilon and Andar?" Ouragana shouts at Jocelyn. "Should I try to pick Areilon up? Andar is certainly too much for me"

[JadedDM]

Ouragana watches as the second horde approaches. They are shambling; moving rather slowly, but steadily. They will arrive in at least a minute, she calculates.

Baeros swings his long sword at the zombie attacking him, easily chopping off an arm with a single blow. The arm drops into the water with a splash. He then turns and strikes at the zombie attacking the sailors, but misses when he notices a second horde shambling down the deck right at them, a dozen strong.

While Takit takes a nip at his opponent, Val quickly picks up her fallen trident and goes back into a fighting stance. The sailors up on the ship finish off the zombie on the plank while Jocelyn beams the one fighting Baeros with a stone, knocking its head off. However, another zombie steps up to take its place, blocking off the plank once again. It swings at Baeros, but the ranger is able to duck in time.

Brock continues to help Takit in fighting off one zombie, while Val fends off the blows of the other two.
