Round 1, continued
Balth darts through the doorway past Vashik, noting in passing the weak spots in the nearby guard's armor. He looses two arrows, skewering the orc to the south and scratching the guard facing Larinza.
(ooc: Both arrows hit; O6 dies, G1 takes 2. HQ applied to G1, but no damage this turn since it wasn't on at the time of the attack.)
Larinza calls for Kruk to come help her, hoping to expose the guard's flank to his axe. But Kruk reacts slowly, and her distracting attack fails.
(ooc: viper's strike misses. Can't shift to X8, since that's two squares. I put you in X9 instead.)
Vashik steps into the doorway and looses a stream of glowing silver arrows at the farther guard, leaving smoldering holes in his clothing.
(ooc: magic missile hits, 11 damage to G2)
The guard facing Larinza shifts to the south and readies himself to attack after his boss has had a say. Clearly this is a practiced move.
The other guard moves into flanking position and readies an attack as well.
From upstairs comes the pounding of heavy feet as the third guard runs toward the stairs.
Hoofchew sizzles as the acid from Vashik's opening attack eats at him. He looks Larinza in the eye with a look of insane malice, and Larinza feels a brief moment of fear, which she shakes off. But Hoofchew's eye continues to burn into her, throbbing with unholy menace, and she falters. Then Hoofchew gestures to his guard with an evil smile.
"Kill her, and let the dark ones feast on her soul." The guard swings its flail, barely missing Larinza despite her distraction.
[sblock=ooc]Hoofchew takes 5 ongoing acid damage.
Hoofchew uses Eye of Wrath twice against Larinza as minor actions.
First misses, second hits. Larinza takes a -4 penalty to AC, save ends.
Then Hoofchew uses Swift Arm of Destruction, granting G2 a free basic melee attack, which
misses by 1 despite flanking and -4 to AC. G2 regains 15 hp despite missing, bringing him to full.
Hoofchew saves vs. acid:
15
[/sblock]
Now both guards flanking Larinza strike. Somehow Larinza manages to ward off one of the blows, but the other lands heavily.
(ooc: G1 and G2 take their readied actions. G1 misses, G2 hits. Larinza takes 11 damage, is slowed, and is marked by G2)
