Turn 14: Last Stand (Cont.)
"Because of you my family starved to death! Here you stand, cowering in a church, as if your god will protect you from the fruit of your sins? You're an inhuman monster!"
Stab Baron McBurnyFields.
[1d4+2=6] vs [1d7+1=8] In an epic showdown you circle the Baron and lash out frequently, your horse whinnying and stamping at the ground. He deflects every lunge, and seems to be on the defensive when suddenly he spots an opening, dives below your horse, and strikes you on the other side. Feeling bruised and tired, you are forced to withdraw from combat.
-1 HP (0/2, Winded)
+1 max HP
Attack Skill IncreaseATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK!
[1d6+1=5] vs [1d7+1=3] Following the epic showdown between the Baron and the mounted peasant you unceremoniously smack him in the side with your hammer.
Baron at 6/8 HPrip a piece of cloth from the dead soldier and use that to staunch my bleeding.
[1d4=3] You tie cloth tightly around the wound, and you feel the blood loss begin to slow, then stop. You still feel weak, and don’t think you could manage much movement.
Let a clean sweep at the head. DECAPITATION!
[1d6+1=2] vs [1d4+1=5] The guard ducks your swing and slams hard into you, knocking you off of your feet and throwing you against the temple wall. You are severely winded, and your chest hurts as you breathe.
-2 HP (0/3, Dazed)Time for tactics. Roll a barrel towards the baron and follow through with a charge.
[1d5=5, tactics success][1d5+3=8] vs [1d7+1=4] Your barrel barrels through the Baron, leaving him briefly sprawled on the floor. You pounce on this opportunity, and the Baron, and leave a deep gash along one of his arms. The Baron is beginning to look nervous.
Baron at 3/8 HPHelp Origami staunch the bleeding. Take the belt from the guard and make a tounique tourtineque tourtique thing-that-staunches-bleeding-with-a-belt-when-you-put-it-on-really-tight-above-the-wound. Yeah. That thing.
[1d4=1] You spend a while feeling the guard up without finding a belt, but when you turn back to Cortis it seems he has everything under control.
Jongo fell, and with no peasants remaining outside the temple the guards did their best to bring down the door, [4d4=12] and their earnest effort began to show.
Door HP 11/30Despite winning a showdown against Rabble, the Baron quickly paid for fighting three opponents at once.
