ooc: Bell was already in H7, so Catein is in H6.
Kendrick hardly has time to gloat before he finds that once again he has the Broodlord's undivided attention. If he were still in control of his nervous system, he would feel a trickle of blood running down from his nose.
The mage moves as though in a trance as he releases a puissant bolt at the shrouded girl, but the magic dissipates uselessly into the nearby stone pillar.
The mass of skittering creatures sweep towards Catein. A split second after they begin biting, there is a flash of light and the majority of them are scattered across the room. However, some of them remain, jamming Catein's limbs with their corpses.
With an expression much more serene that that you normally see on Kendrick, he turns towards Martelai and rapidly slashes at the warlock.

Bell (15/25, insubstantial, +2 to all defenses)

bloodied, immobilized
, slowed, granting CA)
Broodlord (-15)
Mage (-4)

Atlas (14/26)
Martelai (17/28, +2 to all defenses, dazed (save ends))
The Broodlord
CRITS Kendrick, with an attack that does no damage. Kendrick is dominated until the end of the Broodlord's next turn.
The Mage casts Magic Missile at Bell, but
fails to reach the realm of double digits.
The swarm shifts to G9 and charges Catein, drawing an AoO from Bell, which
misses badly. Martelai and Kendrick are currently unable to make AoOs. The charge
hits Reflex 20 for 9 damage and Catein is immobilized, as well as bloodied. This triggers Armor of Wrath, which deals 13 damage to the swarm, bloodying it, and pushes it to H9. I mean, you don't
have to push it to H9, but if it's in H9 then none of your allies are going to start their turn adjacent to it. F6 also accomplishes this, if you'd prefer.
On his turn, Kendrick
goes crazy nuts on Martelai Twin Strikes Martelai,
hitting AC 20 for 5 damage and AC 19 for 3 damage.[/sblock]

[sblock=Map Info]The disgusting ponds of goo have no effect. They are too shallow and not sticky enough to hinder you in any way.
However, whenever you start your turn adjacent to a red wall (corners don't count) it makes an attack at +4 vs Will. On a hit, you are slowed and grant combat advantage until the end of your next turn.[/sblock]
