Could we extend this round's end? I at least will probably be asleep until after the deadline, and Doc's question hasn't been answered. (Unless I converted the times badly, in which case nevermind).

Sure, I'll extend the round another 24 hours.

So I may have been laboring under a mistaken idea about Call to Arms up until this point.
Referencing this post,

When I was after Elb and Hydra in the turn order, but before Tau, and used my Call to Arms, in the status update afterwards it showed Elb and Hydra affected by Call to Arms, but not Tau. Is this meant to indicate merely that they haven't used the offensive buff yet, and everyone concerned had their initiative boosted in round 7, or that Tau had already had his initiative boosted the previous round?

I had been operating it using the former since that's what the description says, but thinking about it, the latter makes more sense since it wouldn't really make sense to give an attack buff one round and initiative buff the next. I'm going to change the descriptions of Call to Arms and Rout so that the initiative buff takes effect at the same time that the attack buff does rather than the initiative buffs occurring on the next round.

Wintrean Wolf, Mountain Jaguar, Black Mino

Stance: Offensive

Just so you know, you can target someone on the same turn that you transform into beast form.

Oh, wow. I didn't get that impression at all.
But since we're in 'ask questions about abilities' mode - can you switch back to human if you choose to while in Beast form?

Hmm... I'm gonna say no. You have no control over when you return to human form.

Huh. In that case:

Stance: Offensive
Action: Beast Form
Target: Mino (White)
Potion: N/A

Yeah I was surprised when Gerrick told me that when I played Druid. Perhaps the description of the ability should be updated to be more clear?

@Gerrick if Hydra used Fortify Willpower on me, could I use Heal Other this turn?

Yep.

Stance: Defensive

Round 12

Martin Breakshield, with his increased agility, stepped towards the beasts and gave a thunderous shout, causing the Mountain Jaguar, Wintrean Wolf, and black Mino to Rout and run away.

The black Mino then turned back towards the combatants and cautiously ran to attack Elbbsas, but she easily dodged the attack, causing the Mino to scurry away.

Rosashia Byrnweave cast a Charm spell on the Mountain Jaguar, which then laid down and began to lick its paws.

Wintermoot pulled out his bow and aimed at the Wolf for a Precise Shot. He released the arrow, which hit the Wolf's back leg, dealing 11 damage and crippling it.

Hyrda cast a spell on Taurus, Fortifying his Willpower so that he may immediately cast his healing spells.

The white Mino attacked Wintermoot, biting his leg for 11 damage.

Dr. Taurus Valeria drank his Defense Potion then jogged over to Martin and cast his Heal Other spell on him, healing him for 10 health.

Elbbsas the Reka suddenly began to grow larger and hairier, transforming into her Beast Form. She ran to the white Mino and slashed it with her large claws, dealing 9 damage. She then slowly shrank back into her human form.

The Wintrean Wolf, crippled and scared, tried to attack Taurus, but he easily leaped out of the way of the attack.

Wait what do those comma'd numbers in the Combat Order mean? The first number is obviously Initiative, but I'm confused on the second.

4. At the start of the match, the Host will perform a 1d20 roll for initiative for each player and a roll for each beast depending on their agility, determining the combat order for the first round. If there are equal initiative rolls, additional rolls will be used to determine who comes first. After the combat order is determined, the Host will post for all to see.

The second number is the additional roll, which is solely to determine who comes first between those with equal initiatives. The first number is the actual initiative.
