Droskar's Crucible

[Toryn Togglebit]

Toryn cautiously circled around the strange squid-worm...thing, looking for an opening to exploit. Suddenly, the Grick lashed out with its tentacles, catching Toryn by surprise, though the gnome's instincts kicked in and he was able to duck under the attack with relative ease. He recovered momentum and flanked the creature, slashing the wakizashi across the creature's exposed body as soon as it gave him an opening. The skin felt tough and resisted the blade's bite, but the gnome managed to draw blood nonetheless. Toryn then plunged his shortsword deep into the fresh cut and tore open a sizeable wound in the Grick's body.

Grick Reaction: Gripping Tentacles: 1d20+11 12 miss

Action 1: Stride to flank Grick
Action 2: Wakizashi Strike: 1d20+9 24 hit
Wakizashi damage: 1d4+4+1d6 11 -5 resist = 6 damage
Action 3: Shortsword Strike (-4 MAP): 1d20+5 25 crit!
Shortsword Damage: 1d6+4+1d6 11 x2 = 22 -5 resist = 17 damage

(OOC: sneak attack was 6 damage on first hit and 5 (10 with crit) on second strike, in case the Grick can't be flanked after its turn)
