Mhairi's crossbow bolt embeds itself in the leg of the nearest Maiden, who turns from her approach to the stairs.
"Hold," she says to her comrade. "We have a breach." She moves back down the gangway towards Mhairi, sword and shield held before her. Her companions sheathes her sword and readies her bow again.
Meanwhile, as Manachan darts and jabs at the Physician before him, Ignatius holds the door. The two Maidens struggle against his magic, their swords held in shaking hands but they cannot bring themselves to attack. A third Maiden emerges from downstairs.
Suddenly Davaulus reappears. With surgical precision he delivers a rapier strike between Edmond's ribs. Dark energy flows along the blade, and it is only Edmond's innate reflexes (or perhaps the blessings of Zellara) that save him from certain death.
[sblock=OOC]
Manachan - attacks Physician #12 , miss.
Mhairi - drop down, hits Maiden #4 for 13 damage total.
Ignatius - cast Sanctuary on defensive.
Davaulus - hits Edmond for 22 points of damage, but is visible again.
Maidens #9 and #10 fail to make Will save to overcome Sanctuary. Maidens #1- #4 , move.
Next up:
Edmond.
I decided to let Mhairi have those maneuvres under Rule of Cool.
Ignatius' Bless is still active.
