((I'll update later, I'm in class and lots of turns after Karl.

Honestly, the way how you play reminds me of my dragonborn fighter, only because he is a fighter that fights like a paladin/avenger and, as a friend says, you're a paladin that fights like a fighter. That may be why I see Karl as a pretty awesome character... Provided he can live long enough :P ))

Jee wilikers, I think Highmax is near invulnerable, must have been dunked in the river styx like achilles was.
Just make sure he wears a boot.

"Be careful, Symon, they hit like ogres for all their short stature."

Symon nods, "And I shall return their blows twofold!"

((Thanks for the cover, USEC_OFFICER!))

((No problem. I've got some damage resistance so I should be okay... Hopefully.))

((It might be my MMO history coming out, but the basic paladin abilities are built around jumping in the middle and making as many new friends as possible while characters with less HP and armor go ahead and do their thing unimpeded.

But yes, it can be a pretty dangerous way to live, especially now that we've lost our dedicated healer.))

((Just looked. They won't stack unfortunately for you, because how some DMs go, stacking in some cases can get stupid and unrealistic.

Example: You take ongoing 3 fire damage, and then another effect gives you ongoing 2 fire damage. It won't go to 5 ongonig fire, because the 3 is the larger number, and its saying you're either on fire or you're not))

You do so. You regain (10+3) hp.

SD5 begins his turn! He moves up to Karl! He swings his axe again! The attack glances off of Karl's platemail.

SD3 attacks Symon! He hits, dealing (4) damage!

SD6 shifts up and attacks Symon! The attack moves fast, striking several times as the others before have! He hits, dealing (12) damage! Symon is now prone!

SD1 attacks Symon! The attack lands, but instead of swinging his axe, he bashes Symon in the stomach with the shaft! The force deals (6) damage, and Symon is now sick again! (8+6-3) You cough up something nasty, but it doesn't make the whole way up, leaving a very foul taste in your mouth. You think you could do with some crushed mint leaves after this battle...

The new guy begins his turn! (for the record, SD5 is in critical condition)

((You guys lost a healer, but expect a role playing filled replacement. I expect everyone, excluding Symon, to make diplomacy or bluff rolls every five minutes))

((It requires you actually telling me you're using it. I DID realize now they do take damage from your echo, but I don't think anything dies. I'll act as if you used it.

... you take 7 damage total... *does some more math, smashes head on keyboard twice, magic happens*

ok... EVERYONE is bloodied now. Oh, and SD5 is actually dead for going next to you and ending, so I guessed wrong

*yells off to the distance*

WHO BET THAT MY FORGETFULNESS WILL CAUSE DEATH?))

Minor Action: Oath of Enmity SD3
Move Action: Move diagonally south-west, ending up north of SD3 and adjacent to all three of those enemies.
((Thank you Aurel.))
Major Action: Avenging Echo against SD3.

If any enemy besides SD3 hits me, activate Avenger's Resolve.


Symon would yell out something about Bahamut or justice, but he's having trouble keeping his stomach settled, so he settles for unleashing a wordless cry of anger and agony.

((You're making jokes of him right now but I wonder how you'll feel when he DPS's the shit out of enemies. That damage is unreal. Awesome!))

((I'm A-OK with him and his damage output. All hail Symon, king of maiming things with large flails!))

((I'm going to very sad when Symon fails to be badass and lets everyone down.))
((He DID say that he was using Avenger's Resolve. And you still didn't say anything about the Action Point I tried to use on my last turn.))

((Screw ups for everyone! :P

In all seriousness, I try to get updates up ASAP so you guys can get through these quicker (provided I'm home and have access to my dice bag/internet/CB, etc.

And that brings me to another thing; I'm going to try and print off everyone's character sheet so I can actually write down the goodies that Grot had on him. After all, he is a goblin; hes BOUND to carry useless junk))

((Believe me, at first, I skewed a couple rolls and some of the ways monster's work so I wouldn't kill everyone on the first encounter. Aurel could've actually have been permi-dead before he got a second turn; Goblins will always target the weakest, and I believe they will finish off unconscious enemies, but I'm not certain, I may have to reread that part in the monster manual...))
