OOC: No, I did all my action before initiative. It's a readied action.

Also, it's an Exalted Feat. You have to be good to take Exalted Feats.

And Druid's must be some form of neutral.

OOC: Wait, She missed all of her attacks? Even with the buff?

Also, Whisperfoot acts on the same initiative as me.
Yes, and thats why your next to each other in the initiative list.

Sorry for the delay in response, i didn't see you edited it.
OOC: No, I did all my action before initiative. It's a readied action.

Your readied actions allowed you to go first in inititive list, not have a chance to make two back to back attacks.  Both sides were on high alert, you had just planned exactly what you would do if hostilities occured.

An evil creature can give up all his worldly possetions in order to gain favor with his god...as far as i see it would gain the same benifits, but if you so stuck on you sticking to neutral good, then be neutral good in your actions, all the time...no exceptions.  The d&d books are guidlines, and good ones at that, but i'd sooner take the vow of poverty feat away from someone who was trying to keep items for themself than from someone who was playing the poverty role to a tee but wasn't the right "alignment"

Once again Therin attempts to spear the Creature that hurt him. If this misses he retreats behind the group.

OOC: They aren't guidelines. They're rules. That's why they're called rulebooks, not guide books. Evil characters cannot take a vow of poverty, because that's a good action, forsaking personal belongings. Greed is an Evil trait, not a Good trait.

If an evil character does an action of extreme good, like taking a vow of poverty, their alignment INSTANTLY changes to good, as per the rules.

Waiting for my turn in initiative, even though I should have had a surprise round imho.

I do believe drawing my weapons takes a round.  I'll take a defensive stance or whatever.

defensive stance, or 'total defense' is a full round action.

1.  I'm not going to argue my ideals, if its so important to you to be neutral good, then write it down on a piece of paper and have your character act neutral good.  But whats written down doesn't mean jack to me, actions do. I've been keeping track of people actions and reactions so far and if a time comes when an alignment neccesary situation comes about, those notes will be referenced ("that bridge will be crossed when it comes")

ps and dont' think i'll forget about things like threatening a pet of a stranger  :P lol

2. There was no surprise, both sides were ready for actions, and you were out in the open for a length of time.

Again, "Actions in combat, Chapter 8 in the Players Handbook": since your base attack bonus is +1 you can draw your weapons as a free action along with a move action, which will leave you time for a standard attack (one swing)

Huh bluh bluh 8.2 was hard to read.  Anyway, you would be wrong.

The feat "quick draw" allows anyone with a BAB of 1 to draw their weapon as a free action.  I do not have quick draw as a feat.  As I have 2 weapons, it takes an entire round for me to arm myself.

Done and done.

Actually, with a BAB of one, you may draw a weapon while moving, as a free action. It's not the same as just drawing a weapon

Done and done.
And i quote (Players Handbook pg142)

"Drawing a weapon so that you can use it in combat, or putting it away so that you have a free hand, requires a move action.  This action also applies to weaponlike objects carried in easy reach such as wands.  If your weapon or weaponlike object is stored in a pack or otherwise out of easy reach, treat this action as retrieving a stored item.

If you have a base attack bonus of +1 or higher, you may draw a weapon as a free action combined with a reagular move.  If you have the Two-Weapon Fighting feat (page 102), you can draw two light or one-handed weapons in the time it would normally take you to draw one.

Drawing ammunition for use with a ranged weapon (such as arrows, bolts, sling bullets, or shuriken) is a free action."

Wisper foot charges into battle almost diving at the 1st enemy but misses...

Ariadon casts sleep on the four, but all of them seem to shrug it off....

Unfortunatly two of the enemies were ready as well as they both toss thier javelins at the group.  One of them lands right at Ariadon's feet, the other hits Therin for 4 dmg.

Maze ready for combat runs within 10 feet of the eneimes, assumes his stance and draws his sword.

The fourth enemy swings his sword down on Wisperfoot but misses barely.


Order of initiative
Lady Krasaga
Wisperfoot
Ariadon
2nd Enemy
3rd Enemy
Maze
4th Enemy
Therin
Geoff
1st Enemy
Are you serious?! 4 people made a DC 15 Will save? :o
