Krogan will leap into the action, attacking the nearest firebeatle. He will heed the warning from Mardred, but getting too close is the only way Krogan knows how to fight...

OOC: When we determine the initiative sequence, I will explain my actions.

OOC: No problems- Free Nature check if you want it?


OOC: I'm going to Message the others and see where they are, I'll post the map again when I've got all of the Initiative rolls.

Len

Len moves in carefully, trying to remember anything that Dick Gloom, from the Fire Beatle Wranglers guild, had told him of them, but his mind kept bringing back the image of the bandaged Cog Robbins, and that was just a toilet that was to blame!

Alas Len remembers nothing specific about the creatures, not even how to spell 'Beetle'. Clearly the chunky Dwarf is somewhat addled.

Kazzagin watched in curiousity as the others continued their work of searching the room. He, himself, watched the area carefully, looking for signs of danger, but at the same time it was good to see the six of them working together so efficiently. It gave him hope that perhaps he would return from this alive, or at least be able to become something of a legend like his father was assumed to be. Baggage, notwithstanding.

Shield and axe raised up to cover his body and face as the two massive beetles ripped themselves out of the ground, right near where he was standing. He heard Madred's almost strangled cry, thankful for some hint of what they were facing. At least, but the look of things they were spread out, but that meant he couldn't help his allies as much as he wanted. Shifting shield and battleaxe into position he prepared to take the battle to the two beetles. This would not be the end of any of them.

Cinara

OOC: I've messaged Larry again, I'm certain he said he would only be off Tuesday and Wednesday, although... Regardless, here's Cinara's Initiative roll.


Cinara quickly looks left and right, she's been daydreaming again about those experimental 'GBH Beard Straighteners' she saw in Rancid Al's knapsack, "Blonde's come first..." she yells and then readies herself for the fight.

And so the six intrepid Dwarves unleash their implements (of death and destruction) and set aboout the Fire Beetles, knowing full-well should they fail to take them down then one or two of there number could soon resemble charcoal briquettes.

OOC: Combat begins see tab below, remember-

Move
Minor
Standard
Free

And make sure you indicate which square you are moving too, plenty of explanation if needed please.

First group to attack are-
20 Thorgrim*
19 Kazzagin
10 Krogan
9 Mardred
8 Cinara

I'll try to keep to the Initiative order but if you don't post within 24 hours then I'll skip you and move down the line to someone who has posted their actions. Having said that remember other people are going to move about, I know- it's difficult to get right, do the best you can- if your action is nullified by someone with a higher Initiative's action then I'll either try to reinterpret your actions some how, or else ask you to post again (within 24 hours).

Note the second group to attack will be my Fire Beetles, and the third group will be Len, and all of the first group again.

Message me in the OOC forum if you need greater clarity or wish simply to ask questions.

Thorgrim Wildaxe

Thorgrim curses that he hasn't the time to properly draw both weapons. Holding one waraxe with both hands, he takes a swing at the nearest fire beetle. It is a devastating blow that fully draws of his weapon training and great strength.

[sblock=OOC]

I assume we start with weapons sheathed?

minor: draw waraxe
move: move up-left, up-right to 24 AK (should give no OAs)
standard: Marauder Rush vs Fire beetle 1 (targets AC)

sorry, damage should be 21. I forgot the bonus for wealding a versatile weapon two-handed.

The waraxe punches straight through the Beetles carapice and keeps on going, through the large insects abdomen, wrecking one side of the creature completely. A fizzing yellowy-gold gunk drips and seethes from the wound, the Beetle lurches and chirrups wildly... makes strange choking hiccuping sounds, more of the gunk foams and froths around its mandibles, drips onto the floor.

The Beetle suddenly plants its legs and draws back its head, it's mandibles spread wide, mouth parts out the way it's great maw opens as if it is about to yawn... or else spit flame.

OOC: Bring it on, and what a first hit.

Kazzagin didn't hesistate too long. No sooner had his fellow dwarf land a stunning strike against the other beast, did Kazzagin's challenging roar draw the attention of its partner. With shield held high he leapt towards the edge of the pit, jumping over boulders to clear the space quickly. His mighty battleaxe sang through the air, blazing the white light of Pelor. "Urguh!" he grunted as the axe bit into carapace, splashing ichor on the cold stones beneath his feet. "Pelor's might be with me," he growled as he bashed the monster's head away with his shield.
