     [Recap]  

        From Ben'dar: [Re: Actions]
          Ben'Dar wheels to the left and lowering his pike, charges the
          nearest of the 3 creatures.
        GM: Ack. 

                        -----------------------

        From Chion: [Re: Actions]
          Chion stows his staff and dismounts. He will get out his sai
          and attempt to avoid being hit by the sling stones while moving
          toward the nearest opponent.
        GM: Ack. 

                        -----------------------

        From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
          Z'leyra will quickly cast Orient Self EL0 then Sh Invisibility
          EL3 followed by Balance spell Speed at max EL. After that she
          will draw her blade and go around smacking the enemies (mostly
          from behind).
        GM: Ack.

     [New Stuff]

         [Decalis 16th, 107th day since left Marentia, 42nd day of
          Adventure #3 of the 1633rd year [TH].]
          [Location: Pavassa Forest - Eastern Edge/On Plains]
          [Time -  3:56pm]
          
          [Turn 1: Phase 1]

             [Mana Allocation - ]

               [Z'leyra, Arawn, Bohusara and Xian allocate mana for spells.]

             [Missile Fire    - ]

               [Enemy #2 standing near a tree looks at Ben'dar and
                reaches into a sack of some sort.  He reaches in
                with a big hand and pulls something out.  With
                a backward flex he then throws it at Ben'dar.  Ben'dar
                glances just in time to see 5 bullet sized objects
                of brown or black nature whizzing his way from the
                thrown attack.  Four seem to miss Ben'dar but
                a 5th collides in his left chest with a "THUD" sound.
                It seems to penetrate into the dragon scale armor and
                does 1 point of damage.]

               [Enemy #9 does the same but pulls out and throws only
                one object out toward Farseeker.  But it goes past
                him entirely.]

             [Magic Effect    - ]

               [Z'leyra begins to beat her drum and enter into her
                Shamanic trance.]

               [Still on his Horse Xian casts a invisibility spell
                on himself and disappears.]

               [Arawn though well hidden by his Elf ability in the
                thick forest casts quietly a Invisibility spell and
                disappears.]

               [Bohusara raises her arms and begins to chant and
                a tingling is felt within 400 feet around her.]

               [Farseeker, Thig, Trembyl, Xian, Z'leyra all feel
                the tingling of the great magic.  None resist
                magically and accept the spell.]

               [Arawn, Ben'dar, Chion and Unali also feel the effect
                of the spell.]

               GM: Strie'bog may be the only one that can resist
                   the spell.  Will email you.

             [Melee & Movement-]

               [Corona flies over the pond toward the party to help out.]

               [Ben'dar whirls his horse around and charges the two
                humanoids coming his way.  He can't get a full charge
                speed in this heavy forest but its a good minor charge.
                Ben'dar's magical pike hits the humanoid #1 in the
                lower right chest below normal ribs would be.  The
                blow is high doing 13 points of damage.  But the
                person remains standing.  Tef'wo tries to shoulder
                hit the other one but seems to do no damage.]

               [Unali draws her other normal dagger and places it in her
                shirt for easy reach.  For her next move she'll need
                a hand to guide the horse.  She turns her horse to the
                left and charges #8.  With the magical dagger in her
                right arm she swipes at the tall humanoid.  The dagger
                fails to hit anything as she rides by and continues
                the horse to the south-west then turns left again to
                come full circle.]

               [Thig takes to the air and reaches for his repeating
                crossbow.  He knows he'll be of little use to the
                others on the ground.]

               [Boyzdar sees Strie'bog almost hit turns to stare at
                the enemy and growls.  He gets in a fighting leap
                charge stance ready for orders or action if they
                come close. He is wise enough to know attacking
                a superior number force by himself is dangerous. so he
                does not charge.]

               [Farseeker charges forward toward #10.  he knows he is
                somewhat alone on this flank and hopes others like
                Xian support him otherwise a 4 to 1 battle might be
                hard even for him.  He knows these creatures mean
                hostile intent especially since they just threw
                something at him.  He swings his Great sword and fails
                to strike the humanoid as it dodges.]

               [Enemy #4 charges toward Thig's general directions.
                At the same time #6 charges east toward the Wagon
                and horses there.]

               [Ben'dar sees in his side vision the one that threw
                whatever it was at him watch the bullet sized things
                over the shoulder of Ben'dar.  Ben'dar then notices
                the bullets coming BACK?!? Ben'dar's head whirls as
                he hears buzzing like from bugs as they pass him then
                slam into the hand of the one who threw them.  The
                humanoid balls them in his fist.  At the same time
                #12 heads west toward the center of the clearing.]

               [Enemy #1 uses the spear/staff as a staff and tries to
                hit Ben'dar but Ben'dar is able to duck just in time
                to miss the long shaft.]

               [Chion already dismounted stows his staff on the sling
                on the horse and draws his sai.  He sees over the
                horse the enemies from the west then glances to the
                east.  The closest enemy is #4 so he charges to intercept.]

               [Trembyl curses himself for leaving his horse and especially
                his Arbalest.  He draws his magical scimitar and charges
                toward enemy #4.  He swings down and swipes a chunk of
                the humanoids right shoulder doing 22 points of damage
                in the process.  As he hits Chion who is looking at
                Trembyl knows a sparkle of blue and green aura or something
                sparkle over Trembyl.  Could that be the spell?  The man
                continues to stand in that devastating hit.]

               [Enemy #7 moves North east toward the wolf.]

               [Enemy #5 charges toward Chion with his weapon and thrusts
                it like a spear at Chion.  It misses his back by a mere
                half inch.]

               [Z'leyra stands put ready to cast more spells.]

               [Enemy #9 moves the few feet toward Farseeker and flanks
                him to his left.  The Warrior stands still and thrusts
                out his staff.  Farseeker glances to his left just in
                time to see the staff shimmer and suddenly become
                alive! The head of the staff seems to turn into a
                snake like head and lunge at Farseeker coming toward
                his side and biting him on the center of the chest
                doing 3 points of damage past his chainmail.  The
                bite is painful but Farseeker seems to take it.]

               [Arawn now invisible moves a few feet to gain his bearings.
                He is unsure of the spell that seems to have overcome him.
                But he scans in the darker forest for more forms and
                seems to find others.  He tries to get into position
                for some attacks.]

               [Enemy #10 thrusts his staff which this time shimmers
                in front of Farseeker into a thin and long whip.  It
                thrusts out and seems to grow slightly and capture
                Farseeker's right arm pulling it away from the great sword.]

               [Strie'bog gets to his feet and scans the enemy to try
                and understand what is going on.  He seems to recognize
                the spell his mother casts and plans his next move.]
               GM: If no actions for next update will fire bow.

               [Enemy #8 runs toward Unali on her horse.  He gets in
                front of the horse and thrusts the staff upwards toward
                her.  This time the staff shimmers into its snake
                like form and tries to bite Unali but she is able to
                pull away when the dagger she holds gives her a split
                second warning.]

               [Enemy #3 tries to hit Ben'dar with the staff but
                fails to hit Ben'dar.]

               [Enemy #11 runs westward toward the center of the clearing.]

               [Xian now invisible moves toward #6 fearing for the horses
                and wagon.  He comes to the back left of the warrior and
                swings his War staff hitting the humanoid in the center
                of the back doing 12 points of damage.  The blow is
                light but Xian seems to feel more damage flowing from the
                attack itself?]

          Actions? Comments?

          Next update Monday...

          GM: Will work on update Monday night and this time will
              get 2 phases in.  I just had time to do 1 phase. I
              got behind so its late.

              KEEP IN MIND: For those who saw the staff shimmer into
              different forms ONLY Unali and Farseeker saw this at
              this point.  For all others your characters only know
              its a normal staff.  :)

          GM:  Arawn - Got actions for next update via ICQ but in
                 generic attack terms.  Do you keep to the forest to
                 hunt for others or enter the clearing invisible?

               Ben'dar - Your the only one so far aware the flying
                 objects return to their owner.  But you still have
                 3 around you.  Sorry ran out of time to do a smaller
                 map but I'll try to do one this weekend. If you need it.

               Chion - Your the only one to know of the Green Lady's
                 spell Aura effect it seems.

               Strie'bog - Actions?

               Unali - Stay on horse or go to ground?  Fighting with
                 two daggers is possible but hard to control mount.

               Z'leyra got your Invisible actions but what about for
                  phase 3?

          GM: I got a lot of work this weekend on some spell and
              experience charts.  This is the last combat for this
              adventure assuming you all survive :).  So if you want
              experience you'll need to fight :)  Course fighting
              in this one could be dangerous. :)

          GM: I hope I moved all on the map to good positions.  I know
              the coordinates in this map suck.  But I goofed on its
              setup.  Oh well.  Sue me.  My Elf Lawyers are good.
