Religion (1d20+10=26) to ID who Delkat follows. Initiative (1d20+2=9) I would like to post after the monsters go since I'm sure the battle field will change a bit. Plus Delkat already has the best spot to 5' step. =v)
Ares was ready, the howls of the wolves are familiar to him as he lived his childhood in Barovia. He glances at the furred creatures to identify their nature.
Taking a small leather loop out of his pouch, Ares calls “Rihuf Lema’la”, the small loop disintegrate in his hand, in an instant, Ares begin to float upward and out of the reach of the wolves.
The wolfmen were upon the group before Ryan could introduce himself to the stranger.
He draws his greatsword as soon as he can react. Not knowing the nature of these foes, he has to assume the worst, and uses some of his arcane power, saying the words to infuse his sword with a charge of electricity while swinging it.
He strikes the entangled wolfman near the neck, a mighty blow that would bring down all but the toughest opponent, as electricity surges into the monster.
Hey Kinem, I don't have my PHB2 with me, but I was under the impression that if you used Arcane Channeling you don't have to "cast" the spell...thus, no defensive casting needed, as Arcane Channeling doesn't provoke AoO.
Am I misinterpreting this?

The haughty elf nods as Delkat reveals his destination "AH, we too are heading towards WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" Kay'el whirls about as flames leap from his draconic companion towards the treeline.
"Oh.. bloody hell." He raises his walking stick as the wolf-men close in, but realizes that his reaction is too slow.

[Please roll initiative and post actions - I doubt anyone will act before the first wolf, but Kay'el & Esmeralda could tie on a natural 20
Initiative (1d20+6=9) So much for that theory.
Since all 4 NPCs go before me, I'll post after I know where they move/what they do.
I only see one attack roll...there should be one for the attack, and one for the crit confirmation. Am I missing something?

OOC: If you were one of those waiting on the wolfmen's actions, they are posted above, so please post your actions.

Kay'el steps forward and tries to gain the attention of the two wolfmen to the west, his walking stick suddenly up and twirling as he snaps it back and forth between the two. "Come now, you overgrown pups, pick on somebody your own size." The elf quirks a small smiles for the first time in days as a potential challenge presents itself.
combat
HP: 47
AC: 25
Actions: 5' step towards Woflman#1, attack him with twice, wolfman#2 once. Vs wolfman 1 (1d20+12=21, 1d20+7=14, 1d6+4=7, 1d6+4=7)
AC 21 for 7 damage, AC 14 for 7 damage Vs wolfman 2 (1d20+12=17, 1d6+4=9)
AC 17 for 9 damage.
As you can tell by the numbers, Kay'el isn't fighting defensively at the moment, as he's trying to attract the woflmen's attentions. 'twould be appreciated if anyone who can affect them from range would move behind me so they have fewer targets to select.
Delkat cast Magic Circle vs. Evil -- the combat post says Bless, same as Esmerelda.

Oops! Sorry about that.

Sarryx steps off the path and again opens his mouth wide, blasting forth another red line of energy from his mouth. The line catches two of the enemies in its path, the red flames do not linger this time. He tries to recall anything he might have heard about these particular foes.
OOC

The wolfman wounded by Kyranvik snarls in rage, and sends another flurry of claws and bites at the warrior. In its rage over its wound, it slams a clawed hand hard into Kyranvik's abdomen, blasting the air from his lungs and bruising his ribs, even through his armor.
From a safe position above the party Ares calls: "Beware the bites if you don’t want to crawl like wolves in a full moon for the rest of your life." Ares motion his hand and whisper dark words and three missiles of magical energy dart from his fingers toward the werewolf that just clawed Kyran. The beast staggers from the force of the energy bolts, but stays on his feet.
The wolf struck by Kay'el strikes him back, clawing and biting. Once claw strike gets past the elf's defenses; their isn't much force behind it, but it still causes Kay'el some pain.
The last wolf goes after Sarryx. It moves slowly, but still manages to catch the dragonish man, slapping at him with his clawed hand. Slowed as it is though, Sarryx easily dodges the strike.
Delkat invokes another prayer to his goddess -- beseeching her aid to smite the heathen wolves before him. And his prayer is answered -- a shimmering scimitar appears next to the wolf in front of Delkat and attacks! Unfortunately, his target senses the blade, and dodges nimble aside from its strike.
Seeing the wolfman fall, Ryan turns his attention to the others. He steps towards the wolfman near Kryanvik, and swings his greatsword around, striking the monster. He does not use magic this time, since the creature is wounded and he wants to get some sense of how tough these foes are. We will face these again, I think. His second try is not as well aimed, but it matters not...the wolf reels from Ryan's first strike, tries to rally, and then collapses into the mud.
Kay'el steps in behind the one attacking Saryx, and unleashes his assault upon it. "Mangy Mutt!" After his attack, he turns sideways to keep his attention on both wolfmen, staff twirling a defensive loop. The elf manages only one solid strike on his foe, and even that seems to do little against the wolf's unnaturally resilient hide.
Donner moves off the road, and turns back toward the battle. The Stormlord then raises a hand to the heavens, then with a commanding force guides a bolt of lightning down upon a werewolf. The werewolf manages to avoid the brunt of the strike.
The hair on Esmerelda's arms prickles as her concern for Ky grows and her anger at the wolfman starts to overcome her. A string of angry sounding words spew from her mouth as a stormy cloud forms around her head.
Sarryx flashes a toothy grin at the wolfman in front of him then unleashes another gout of flame at the enemies to the south of him. The wolf immediately before him falls beneath the fiery onslaught, the second is a bit singed. Luckily, Sarryx' earlier magics prevent his companion Kay'el from being burned.
Kyranvik winces in pain at the lupine creatures wounds. Seeing the nearest foe fall beneath Ryan's blade, Kyranvik rushes toward the last enemy, raises his sword and swings a truly terifying blow at the creature, his sword bting deep into the furred torso.
