[Adventure]: The Mark of Trogdor (DM: Dimsdale, Judge ??)

"Archers."

Quan stalks left and his arrow strikes the archer flanking the group. The arrow flies true. With the arrow lodging in his shin, the archer falls down, but doesn't roll off the roof.

Raijin ignores the barbarian next to him, looking up at a wounded archer. Remembering his new gauntlets and feeling Vimak's rune's power he unleashes a thunderbolt. It shifts him away from the barbarian and he retreats to cover. What chance do we have to turn the tide?

"Why don't you try me?" Halleck mocked, stabbing the berserker with his sword and lower his shield in a fiegn, "I'll even give you a free shot."

[sblock=Note to other Players: Bravura]
Halleck has the Bravura Presence:
When an ally who can see you spends an action point to take an extra action and uses the action to make an attack, the ally can choose to take advantage of this feature before the attack roll. If the ally chooses to do so and the attack hits, the ally can either make a basic attack or take a move action after the attack as a free action. If the attack misses, the ally grants combat advantage to all enemies until the end of his or her next turn.

Melee characters might also want to save their AP until I hit with Withering Courage, so they can double dip on the +5 damage bonus.

The archer across the street yells back Shut up and man your post!

But it's too late for he has already fled.

Come back you coward! You know the penalty for running away! The remaining archer fires two more bolts and the ground forces, oblivious to what's going happening on the roof tops, continue to fight to the death.

Primera moves slightly, 'charging' the archer and Nementah moves through the protective zone.

Primera thrusts with her horn forward, impaling the man and quickly lowering her head again, threatening to pull it down if he as much as twitches. Nementah calls the vengeful spirits of nature, uprooted when the building was raised. They respond and the archer on the roof slumps to the ground, two small ferrets visible for a moment before fading back into the spirit world.

She then invokes healing spirits of the wild and green-gold tendrils wrap around Quan and Rocco, soothing their wounds.

Halleck repositioned himself next to Vimak. "How about you?" Halleck asked the other berserker, slicing the man in the face for little damage. "Your friend was no match for my blade. I hope you are at least marginally better. This is starting to get boring."

His jape lured the berserker into a poor attack which was easily blocked. Meanwhile Vimak took the opportunity to sink his Halberd deep into the enemy.

"Well done, sir."
