Trial By Fire - Exalted 2e IC Thread

[Rykon]

2 of 4 is an Attack, this one I specifically didn't use thunderbolt attack prana, though I wish I had with those numbers.
Edit: Attack 2 was 13 successes. See above.

 

[Sherwood]

Is it still against Khatar?

[Rykon]

Yes, unless he drops mid flurry, all attacks will be against him. If he does, it'll be the next in range.

 

[Sherwood]

Just making sure. Attack two hits hard with 8 successes. Go ahead and roll your damage.

 

[Rykon]

Rolling...

2 levels of Lethal, Attack 3 is 6 successes Attack 4 is 9 successes.

 

[Sherwood]

Third attack hits with 3 successes, and the last one hits with 7.

 

[Rykon]

Final rolls for this action...

 

[Sherwood]

The dude with the Khatars is not quite dead, but he's critically wounded, trying to hold his guts in his body. He's probably at his -4 health level, and another sneeze of a hit will take him out.

[jaydude]

Annika crouches under the table with her mouth open as she watches the damage caused by Viktor's Essence Grenade. Then she rolls out from under the table and, noticing Daiklaive 2 to have been slowed down by the blast, runs towards him and attacks with two upward slashes from both her short Daiklaives (2 attacks, speed 4).

[The first attack has 9 successes. The second attack also has 9 successes.]

 

[Sherwood]

His DV is only 4, so your first attack hits with 5 successes, the second hits with 6. Lethal soak is 12. Go ahead and give me a damage roll.

 

[jaydude]

[Attack 1 Raw Damage is 11, Attack 2 Raw Damage is 12. Both values are reduced to 0 by opponent's lethal soak, so the damage die for each attack is 3 (Annika's Essence). After dice rolls, the total damage is 2L.]

 

[Sherwood]

The chilled sword wielder takes the hit in stride, but Annika can see that her swords have drawn blood.

[Psychie]

Darian steps out from behind the table, blind eyes burning in rage. "You come here on the eve of my wedding, trying to kill those that mean the most to me? And on top of that, you ruined my dinner party! This insult will not go unanswered! Have at you!" She swings her Chain Daiklave in a deadly arc, striking twice at Daiklave 2.

[LowRollLyfe]

Durke lets out a roar as he charges forward. His essence erupts into the form of a bear tearing through the wilderness as he moves toward the wrackstaff wielder. Red essence splinters from the edges of his shield; wood rended by the claws of the grizzly. Durke reaches his foe and he raises his essence-enshrouded arm, then brings his axe down toward where his foe’s left shoulder connects with his neck.

(Durke combos Bulwark stance and the first melee excellency, using 5 motes on Bulwark and 6 for his excellency in his attack. This expenditure of 11 motes triggers his anima banner effect.)

Anima Power
By spending five motes of Essence, the character may appear glorious and terrifying until the end of the scene (or until she decides to let the effect dissipate). She appears taller and fiercer, with a terrible visage, burning eyes and a deadly, rending grasp. This effect comes into play automatically once the Solar spends 11+ motes of Peripheral Essence. While this power is in effect, the character exudes a fear aura which causes all opponents attempting to attack or oppose her(socially or physically) to suffer a -1 external penalty on all attack rolls. This unnatural Emotion effect costs five points of Willpower to ignore for the rest of the scene. The Dawn’s terrifying glory unbound also disrupts attempts at coordinating attacks against her, increasing the difficulty to arrange such attacks by 2. Additionally, the immense Essence pressure within the character’s anima slows all incoming attacks, increasing the character’s DVs by 2. Finally, Solars of the Dawn Caste are immune to all fear-based Emotion effects while their anima power is active. If a complementary mass combat unit is forced to check for rout because of the Dawn Caste’s actions while this anima is active, they suffer a -2 external penalty to the roll.

Psychie
Daiklave 2 has a DV of 3, thanks to wound penalties and being half frozen. First attack hits with 4, and the second hits with 6. Soak is 12. Roll your damage.

LowRollLyfe
Your attack on Wrackstaff also hits, this one with 5 successes. His Soak is 7L

Daiklave 2 drops his blade and falls to the ground under the twin blows from Darian, and Wrackstaff lets out a pained cry as Durke hits him.

Dailkave 1 looks at Darian in rage for his fallen comrade. He swings a powerful blow at her that nets 9 successes. What's your DV and Soak?

Chakram backpedals rapidly, targeting Annika with a pair of his thrown blades. Both get 7 successes to hit. DV and soak?

Khatars decides that this fight is going badly, and he heads for the door on Chakram's heels.

[Psychie]

Thanks to my Perfected Kata Bracers with my Form Charm active, my Parry DV is 10, defending me completely.

 

[Rykon]

Aredin slides along the carnage of the frost grenade, blade still humming and crackling with residual solar energies. Moving to block the exit, he'd leap off the door frame, with his arm drawn to strike. His daiklave sheared through the air at the Khatar wielding Dragon-Blooded, seeking the final life's blood before inevitably turning on the Chakram wielder with Aredin's full bloodlust behind it.

[4 attack flurry same as before, priority is killing blow on Khatars, then the rest on Chakram. So I may have to stagger damage rolls between two targets.]

 

[MasterDAF]

"No you don't!" Viktor steps around his chair and leaps atop the table, looking towards the fleeing Khatar wielder. He aims carefully, then whips his arm across his body, channeling essence through it and letting his knife fly towards the running opponent.

[Essence/WP Costs: (One Weapon Two Blows) 3m; (1 auto-success) 1wp]

[Sherwood]

Since Aredin has to close in for melee and Viktor has the ranged attack, I'll go ahead and rule that the thrown weapon will hit first, so If Rykon wants to change is attack, you may do so.

 

[Sherwood]

"No you don't!" Viktor steps around his chair and leaps atop the table, looking towards the fleeing Khatar wielder. He aims carefully, then whips his arm across his body, channeling essence through it and letting his knife fly towards the running opponent.

[Throw Knife Roll: 4 Dexterity + 3 Thrown + 2 Knife + 1 Stunt + 1WP - 1 Wound Penalty = 8 Successes]

Khatar's DV is only 3 at the moment, so you hit him hard with 5 successes. So long as you do a single level of damage, you'll drop him.

 

[Rykon]

Fine with changing targets if he drops.
Attack 1 = 14 successes
Attack 2 = 8 successes
Attack 3 = 13 successes
Attack 4 = 9 successes

 

[Sherwood]

Chakram has a DV of 5, so you hit him hard with your first attack for 9 successes. His soak is 7 at the moment. Go ahead and roll your damage.
