[New Stuff]
[Julis 26th, 1634TH]
[Location: Middle Katai Plains, Shantou Province]
[ 20 Miles south of Shantou City ]
[ Old Shantou Carnival Grounds ]
[Time: 2:27:39pm - 2:27:54pm]
Arawn wonders how the Vong targeted him. He can't be seen
can he? He wonders if their eyes are better suited for such
invisible methods? But his high intelligence quickly kicks
in and he realizes that when he fell he made a target of himself.
Something came through either visible or not. They would
home in on that. Then when he was on his back the dust ,wood
chunks and dirt would have landed on his invisible stomach and
legs bouncing up and down as he breathed and moved. The debris
would've have floated as if by magic on their own. A very
hard thing to avoid when you don't expect it. So he quickly
dusts himself off knowing this is a easy "see me" sign to the Vong.
It would be like walking in a desert invisible and leaving tracks.
Of course even magic has ways to avoid that like dis-track.
Arawn considers his options. If he becomes solid again those
nasty bugs could come after him again. But he can't cast other
magic while the shadow warrior is active. At least not through
his normal wizardry training. But he also has a powerful combat
spell active and it would be a waste not to use. Soon he hears
the swarm calm down when they exited the hole. Then for some reason
they buzz even louder for some reason and zoom up and away. He
isn't sure why but maybe they are going after the party?
Arawn concentrates knowing he needs to end the insubstantial
spell to act. He draws on his being as an Alfar and the utter
connection to the gods themselves for help. The Vong warrior over
him swings down toward the floor previously and the ampistaff
goes through him shifting the dust and hay straw a bit.
Arawn finishes his concentration and becomes solid again. By
now the debris had fallen through him but the weight of his
now solid body makes the floor groan suddenly. He sighs hoping
not to crash through again. But a roof is far less supported
than this floor so he doubts he will. Arawn quickly gets to
his fact, glances right at the shadow warrior and then back at
the Vong facing his general direction. Arawn raises his buckler
to prepare for blocking strikes.
Arawn then stands in a martial arts unarmed combat stance.
his sword is sheathed but he prefers to use the power of the
Fist of the Seirim to help him. His hand is as if made of
solid iron and hard as a anvil. He feels strong through the
magic of the Seirim. Actually he feels strong but he knows he
is losing energy as well as long as the Seirim connection is
in place. Arawn thrusts out wildly to the Vong with his
"iron" Seriim right hand. The Vong brings up his left arm
though to block and Arawn's fist hits in the arm for a minor
wound.
The Vong thrusts at Arawn but fails to hit the Druid.
The other Vong warrior swings on the shadow creature but
fails to hit the odd being.
The Shadow Warrior punches the Vong warrior in the east
and hits in the chest but the heavy Crab Armor protects the
being from harm.
Arawn tried another punch at the Vong in front of him.
This time the fist goes just between his arm and body and
fails to make contact.
The Vong warrior thrusts at Arawn and his ampistaff hits the
Alfar's buckler and blocks the strike.
The other Vong thrusts at the shadow creature's heart and
hits him doing a minor wound which in this case takes a big
of its "shadow" away in the process. As wafts of black-grey
smoke like mist leave the creature's form.
The Shadow Creature swings but the blow goes so wild the
creature almost twirls himself around in the massive failure
to hit the Vong. The stupid being would lose his hands if
he had any in the fumble.
Suddenly Arawn becomes visible to the world. The Vong's
eyes enlarge in surprise and rage.
As Arawn goes for another thrust he notices a slight twinge
in mana-energy to the west. Its faint and he doesn't see
anything or know that it is Will coming through the floor.
Arawn punches again and hits the Vong in the right shoulder
doing a minor wound. Arawn knows this will be a long fight.
Both Vong continue their attacks but both fail to hit the
Alfar and Shadow being.
The shadow creature fails to move the Vong back or hit the
warrior again.
Arawn punches the Vong warrior again in the left arm as
he bring sit up doing a good 10 point wound almost making
his left arm limp.
Both Vong fail to strike back and hit in return to the Alfar
and shadow creature.
The Shadow creature punches at the Vong and hits but fails
to penetrate his armor.
Arawn punches again at the warrior who pulls his right arm
up and the fist hits there doing a massive 9 point blow to
the Vong's arm.
The Vong Arawn just hit is weak. his arms slump down
and he staggers back a bit obviously weak now and hurt. With
a final gush of adrenaline the Vong warrior raises his both
weak and damaged arms and growls in anger. He hits Arawn's
shield but the buckler blocks any damage.
The other Vong swings on the shadow creature and hits in the
chest doing a minor 2 point wound.
The shadow creature punches back and hits in the chest
but his crab armor protects against the strike.
Actions? Comments?
Next Update...Sooner than you think...
GM: Just a supplement update to get Arawn's actions through. Will I will
email you this afternoon/tonight at the very least (after Lost/V) what
you see. So should have info by time go to bed. Nothing changes
below except for the 2nd floor map.
GM: You are now visible and solid. You are hurting the warrior
and both arms are weak. He might not be able to last long
as a weapon user. He is also hurt but he other Vong is
strong and the shadow creature is slightly wounded. The
shadow creature hasn't had a chance to move the Vong
backwards. So the map below hasn't changed.
GM: Will - Something may have changed in the 5th phase. I will
email you the details. I think I forgot to recast
your levitate so may have to recast it on the 2nd floor.
What I need to do in the future is put in my timeline
of events "2:27:13 - Recast spell X" I will do that for
future things. I do look ahead to see when spells end
but I see the Levitate ends next phase. So likely would
not have seen the first floor. But will email you details.
