Suggestions for mobs, huh? kk:

Troglodyte "Trog"
Maxing out at about 5 feet tall, but usually shorter than most humans, Troglodytes are lanky brown-skinned humanoids that live and hunt in caves and other dark environments. They typically try to launch surprise attacks with thrown javelins first, then use clubs and/or claws in melee combat. They can see in the dark quite well, but are easily confounded by bright lights, and absolutely detest fire. Their hearing is acute in caves and narrow passageways where there is plenty of matter to conduct sound, but their physical reflexes and willpower are not really worth mentioning.

Gretchin
These are cowardly goblin-like creatures that only get to about 3-4 feet tall, if that. They are very fast, however, and are good at squeezing through narrow passageways and climbing rough walls. Their primary concern is snatching gold and other shiny items off the ground when players are busy elsewhere, though they aren't above trying a backstab attack in the dark if their target is alone and unaware.

ANYWAYS! Action time!

Gold! Gold! Glorious gold! I pick up the coins, taking a moment to inspect each side for clues about how old they might be. I then return to the original room and take the torch off its wall sconce, then proceed down the west hallway (the one the zombie was standing in when I killed it), and peer carefully around the edge. (If I can't do all those moves at once, then just take the torch and remain there for now.)

Oh... sorry. I didn't know it'd be extra work for you. Want me to just leave the torch there? It just seemed wise to take it with me; in the old NES game Shadowgate, you never go ANYWHERE without a torch, or you die. Period.

Whistle. See if I can locate someone through sound. Then head east.

Sneak next to closest one and slash its tendons off from limbs.

Grigori is unfazed by your feeble attempts to hurt him. Smash him with my hammer until he dies!

Turn 6
[Prev][Next]

Garrick

You collect the coins (no indication of age), grab the torch, and turn the corner... only to see a Gretchin darting towards you!

Elements of Notice
Gretchin, level 0
Spoiler: Map (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Xvareon (click to show/hide)


Barry

You whistle, but get nothing back in terms of sound.

You walk into the West room. It's dimly-lit, and there's a door on all three other sides. You then notice the three zombies on the North-West trying to kill a Troglodyte.

[A:INI][B:INI][C:INI][D:INI]
[A:ATK][D:DDG]
[B:ATK][D:DDG]
[D:ATK][B:DDG][D:DMG][B:RST]
[C:ATK][D:DDG][C:DMG][D:RST]


As you watch, the three zombies try to hit the troglodyte, but only one hits; the troglodyte is far more accurate.

They don't seem to have noticed you... yet.

Elements of Notice:
Zombie A, level 1
Zombie B, level 1
Zombie C, level 1
Troglodyte D, level 3

Aoshi

[ATK][DDG]
[DMG][RST]

[STL][PRC]

[INI][INI]
[ATK][DDG][DMG][RST]

[STL][PRC]

You viciously slash at the first Zombie twice, and it collapses, dead. Of course, the second one sees you.

It drops $7 worth of coins, and you gain 13 exp. You level up! (20 exp until next level up!)

Spoiler: AoshimaMichio (click to show/hide)


Grigori

[INI][INI]
[ATK][DDG]
[ATK][DDG][DMG][RST]

[INI][INI]
[ATK][DDG][DMG][RST]

The zombie moves before you while you lift your hammer back up. As he misses, you jump, and smash him so he looks like he's already dead.
Sensing victory, you quickly smash your hammer on him again before he can recover from the blow. He collapses, and disappears to leave behind four coins.

You've earned 7 exp! (10 until level up!)

Sorry about the wait, and any errors there might be. PhysEd is tiring...

A Gretchin! Hah! I step fully into the hallway with spear at the ready, raise myself up to full height, and ROAR like a giant gorilla to intimidate the little creature into submission! Even it isn't stupid enough to attack an opponent twice its size and holding a spear head-on!

... right?

((Could you tell what all those bonuses in rolls are? As in what are you rolling and how they are determined?))

[Prev][Next]

Garrick

[BLF]
[DDG]
[DMG][RST]

You scare the Gretchin s---less as it slams into the wall next to you!

[ATK]

You then stab the stunned Gretchin.

It then regains its senses!

Barry

((I'll just make you go into the Southern door, I guess.))

You sneak into the Southern door, and find yourself in an unlit hallway. Immediately to your South is a door, and the hallway turns South in your East and West. You can make out faint sounds of fighting down the West side...
Spoiler: Map (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Nidilap (click to show/hide)


Aoshi

You feel a minor surge of strength, then charge at the Zombie while picking up the coins!

[INI][INI]
[ATK][DDG][DMG][RST]

You viciously slice at him, and score a critical! You look back to see his head hanging off by a thread.
[DTH]
Which then snaps. You earn 4 exp (23 more for levelup) and the Zombie drops two coins.

Further South, the hallway bends to the West. You hear a bit of shuffling from there...

Spoiler: AoshimaMichio (click to show/hide)


Grigori

You collect your seven coins and peek through the North door. You don't see much, but you make it out to be an unlit hallway running East and West.

You hear a little bit of scratching down the East side.
[PRC]
On the West side, you only just make out faint sounds of fighting...
