Round 5, continued
Balth nimbly springs up the stairs, nocking his bow as he runs. At the top of the stairs, his eye immediately locks on to the sniper's position, and he fires two shots in quick succession. One misses, but the other sinks into the orc's shoulder, drawing still more blood. Yet somehow, it still stands.
(ooc: one hit, 6 damage plus 3 quarry damage.)
Larinza stands up and runs after Balth, but cannot keep up with the fleet-footed elf.
(ooc: move action to stand, move to run (speed +2, grants CA) up the stairs.)
Slowed by the poison, Vashik angrily limps toward the stairs, magic crackling ominously from his clenched fist as he mutters imprecations.
(ooc: Vashik takes 5 poison damage. He doesn't have line of effect for his spells, and since he is slowed, he can't get up the stairs this turn to see his foe. The good news is that you haven't spent your AP or Force Orb; the bad news is you don't get the HP from having spent your AP.)
Kruk runs up the stairs as well, and takes up a defensive position in case the sniper runs for it.
The sniper, maddened with pain, unslings a spear and charges Merenwen. At the last second, though, it swings the point wide attempt to push Merenwen backwards with the haft, over the rail of the balcony! Alas, it has lost too much blood, and Merenwen easily resists the feeble push. Snarling in frustration, the sniper, near death, scurries back to its hiding place by the tables and crouches low, waiting for the next attacks.
(ooc: charge + bull rush misses Merenwen's fort defense. Dang, I really wanted to push him over the rail. Move action to go back to where it was; doesn't provoke since Merenwen has a ranged weapon.)
Cross is up, followed by everyone else.
