[Adventure] The Darkest Night (DM: johnmeier1, Judge: Ozymandias79)

The wolf howls and seems to go into a bloodthirsty frenzy. It moves away from Janus and he swings his staff instinctively but missing. It pounces on Dextyr, rending his arm and sending him to the ground bleeding terribly. AROOOOOOOOO! it howls.

The creature above begins to descend in a daze, coming to rest near the middle of the hill and recovering his senses. Which wanna youse did dat? I gunna tear im a new one!

Does Murphy get an OA on the wolf? He moved without shifting right? Don't think it'll be enough to save Dextyr, but worth a try. If so MBA (1d20+9=23, 1d10+2=6) [/sblock]

Murphy chuckles as the wolf ignores him, despite the grievous wound his ally suffered. He gestures to Dextyr and the fallen bard's shadow climbs aboard the wolf, a phantom rider that begins tearing into the creature's neck as Murphy's blade stabs forward, the assassin twisting the enchanted weapon and as the wolf falls a trio of shades begin feasting on it. Murphy himself drains the bits of vitality remaining through his blade, although he has little use for it himself.

Seeing Janus standing there, he calls out "Quickly Janus, grab the potion from my pack and get Dextyr back up. The big guy's mine." he says, gesturing to the large foe and his shadow twin moves across the hill in the blink of an eye, attempting to harry the foe.

"C'mon tall, stupid and ugly, let's dance" Murphy hisses, pointing the blade at the werewolf, a claw of shadows bursts from the ground and grabs the enemy, or at least it thinks that is the case as the chill touch exists only in its mind, but that doesn't make the wounds any less real.

The wizard shoots Murphy another dirty look, "I am not your servant Murphy, you'd best remember that" Janus says, but he knows they need Dextyr's assistance and so he grabs the potion and pours its contents down the bard's throat, then tosses the useless glass container away.

Move: to T21

Sheng keeps zipping acid blobs to the giant on the top of the hill.
"Your soul is mine!"

Acid Orb: 26 vs ref for 12 dmg

Saraz concentrates on the big guy, trying to wear down his mind.

[sblock=ooc]
Sorry John. I'll keep that for next turn [/sblock]

The lone gigantic werewolf roars and charges down the slope, ignoring the conjuration of Murphy. He then runs right past the assassin and the prone bard to slice a huge claw towards Sheng.
