Watchtower, Round 2
OOC: The goblin
rolls a 17 for initiative , leaving an order of action: Goblin, Jokad, Jovik (with others doing non-combat action).
The goblin, despite the wicked gash in his gut, gives Jovik a wicked smile. He spits something undecipherable in his goblin slang.
"Nyock. Nyock! Anach porabor", cackling to himself as he spits the words at the young man. He lunges forward, his horsechopper raised above his head, pushing it down towards Jovik's head. The thief feels the wind pushed before the blade. It is close. He throws his hands instinctively before his face, and somehow turns the blade away with Goblin Hook, the move almost accidental.
OOC:
He misses, but only by virtue of your defensive choice this round.
Jovik hears the whistle of wind again, looks up, sees the goblin lunging at him, realises he does not have time to block, and is hit.
He falls forward, the goblin atop him. He feels pain. Waits for the killing blow. But nothing comes. The goblin just lies atop him, motionless. Jovik kicks out, pushing the goblin to one side, and scrabbling out from under him. His gut still leaking, his left hand pressed hard against the wound to stem the flow, he looks down upon the goblin.
A hand axe lies buried four inches deep in the back of the skull of the goblin. 10 feet away Jokad is perched, half in half out of the watchtower, his right hand still extended from the throw, a look of satisfaction upon his face.
The goblin ain't getting up from that!
OOC: Danth finds a broken potion, the contents leaking into the soil, 2sp, a crude dagger, the discarded horsechopper, and a bag of dice tied to the belt of the dead goblin.
Combat is over. You can take a look around from the watch-tower, heal up, search, etc.
