[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[Selina Parcellus]

"Ningalu!  Get clear and help Betimi slay those damnable mind-twisters!  Simon.  You must have some sort of explosive for this sort of situation.  Tomeal...I know this isn't you.  I know you would never do this willingly.  But come at me!"

Eyes blazing with fury, the crusader of Selune drives the point of her blade scintillating blade into the double-croc ™ once again, determined to eliminate it from their troubles.

[5 points of the damage she took is withheld by Steely Resolve, so she's only taken 16 damage so far. It also activates her Furious Counterstrike, granting her an extra point of damage to her attacks until Steely Resolve resets at the end of the next round, when she would normally take the damage withheld there.]

Crusader's Strike: Divine energy surrounds your weapon as you strike. This power washes over you as your weapon finds its mark, mending your wounds and giving you the strength to fight on.

As part of initiating this strike, you must make a successful melee attack against an enemy whose alignment has at least one component different from yours. This foe must pose a threat to you or your allies in some direct, immediate way. If your attack hits, you or an ally within 10 feet of you heals 1d6 points of damage + 1 point per initiator level (maximum +5).  Initiator level works similarly to Manifester level, except any non-Initiator classes/PrCs the PC has (basically anything not from the Tome of Battle) are counted as worth half.  So Selina's 3 levels of Cleric are 1 initiator level, and her one level of Crusader makes that 2.

Attack: [1d20+4] = 13+4 = 17, Damage w/ Furious Sounterstrike: [2d6+2] = 4+2 = 6

Crusader Strike healing: [1d6+2] = 2+2 = 4

I read up and I've actually been making a mistake about this. She doesn't activate maneuvers at the beginning of the round, it's at the end. Fortunately, I've only been using maneuvers that she already had, so I'm not playing fast and loose too much. At the end of her turn, she gains a maneuver that was readied but not active. If she has no readied maneuvers remaining, she activates as many expended maneuvers as she has readied maneuvers. This means, because of her feat "Extra Readied Maneuver", she would regain three of her expended maneuvers back.

So, in summary, she deals 6 damage to Double-Croc™, heals 4 damage from Crusader's Strike, then gains her remaining readied maneuver, Charging Minotaur
