[Adventure] The Seeds of Chaos - Judge Needed

After the adventurers ripped a few of the rats into pieces (some of which were shook about by the summoned wolf as he ravaged the mouthed rat to a bloody puddle) the majority of the battle shifted to the western side of the battle where Leather has grabbed the attention of three of the remaining mutated dire rats. This may have been more attention than Leather could handle, which he found out as one of the cloud rats make a meal out of his thigh flesh. Immediately, Leather sees his open wound swell, and the skin around the wound turn an angry red. While Leather was distracted by his new wound, and the rat that gave it to him, a leather winged rat got a hold of Leather's ankle, sinking his long front teeth down into the bone! Greenish white puss begins seeping out of Leather's open wounds along with rivulets of blood and he knows he's in trouble! Swiping at his foes defensively to keep them at bay, the many eyed rat chomps at Leather, but is not able to get close enough to really do anything.

Seeing the mouthed rat being rent asunder by the summoned wolf, the other leather winged rat takes a bite at him, but the wolf is much more agile than the rat, who simply steps to the side, eying the rat with anger for interrupting his mouthy meal.

While Haaku had managed to stay one step, twist, and turn ahead of the foes that surrounded him, seeing the majority of them turn their attention to Leather must have distracted the desert warrior, because he was caught unawares as the other cloud rat jumped at him, sinking a mouth full of diseased teeth into the warriors shoulder, spasm jerking his head back to get his teeth unstuck from Haaku's scapula! The wound swelled and oozed greenish white puss that smelled of sick and rot. In short, it wasn't a pleasant experience!

Seeing her chance, Torqua moves herself into a flanking position of the two flying monsters. The Super-sized sorceress takes a deep breath until her cheeks are swollen and glowing green. Then she blows out a toxic cloud of poison at the two airborne rodents, giving them a taste of their own sickening medicine.

Well girls, how about you start with a little light snack.

They surrounded one of the wispy rats. After curing most of Leather's wounds, they attack the rat with club, tooth, and claw. The rat was a tenacious creature being half there and half not there.

Leather brings his axe back down aimed at the head of the many eyed rat with a two handed strike. The blow is strong enough to split the creature's head asunder and drop it twitching in death throes beneath the water.

Haaku pulls his crystal chakram from his belt, eyes sweeping the torch-lit sewer. He was coming down off of the blood rush, and he didn't want to charge into the sluiceways and lose his footing. There- one of the flying ones, weakened by his casters' spells. Easy prey. Haaku's chakram slices through the air, opens the flying rat's artery to the damp air, and glides home. He catches the bladed hoop, and his bone gauntlet rattles as it stops the spinning blade from slicing his hand apart.

Though Ilex's glorious presence is enough to sew some chaos into the battle, throwing enemies to periphery of the round room, it seems these creature's aberrant natures made it all to suited to adapting to such chaos. Two of the three rats barrel down upon leather, who feels the power of their massive diseased jaws. The dark skinned warrior can feel the disease working its way through his body, and instead of the usual red blood one would expect to see pouring out of such gaping wounds as was given to him, Leather's life blood ran a sickly mottled mixture of pussy greenish white, tinged with splotches of pink where the disease hadn't fully taken over those hemoglobin cells. On the other side of the room, the other cloudy rat kicked its legs until it was able to right itself after having been, quite frankly, knocked on his ass (well... in all technicality it was his back... but still). Its head swam with the mystical energies given off by Ilex, and it could do naught else but shake its head from side to side in an attempt to clear his mind.
