Tanith steps through the door and fires her crossbow at Courages opponent, but misses. Luckily, she also missed Courage.

One of the ant-dwarf creatures swings his axe wildly at Jonas, but Jonas manages to duck out of the way.

The severity of Courage's injuries are becoming apparent as she swings her axe weakly at ant-like dwarf in front of her. The dwarf easily dodges her blow and comes back with a swing of his own axe. Miraculously Courage sidesteps the blow as Dyspeer leaps in the foray with his jaws snapping. Again the lucky dwarf-thing escapes injury as Dyspeer narrowly misses.

Shai steps around to flank the other chitinous dwarf, but as he swings his hammer he realizes that the move is useless; the sneaky dwarf has managed to sense his swing and duck out of the way, even from behind!

As Tanith becomes distraught over her missed shot, she is shocked back to her senses when she sees movement at the top of the stairs. Suddenly, without warning, a formian, larger than the others, leaps from the top of the stairs and lands in front of her. The thing lashes out with an ominous stinger but Tanith manages to block it.

Dread fills Tanith's eyes as the realization comes to her: this could get very, very ugly.

Angry with how the situation has unfolded, Tanith takes a step back away from the formian and starts casting a spell. "I hope you all burn in hell!" Suddenly a ball of flame appears on top of their new adversary.

[sblock]ooc - flaming sphere on the new formian. Reflex DC 16 or 2d6 fire damage[/sblock]

"Bloody--! Why do bugs always have to be so dodgy?" Shai growls, swinging again.

[sblock=OOC]repeat of last round for Shai and Dyspeer.[/sblock]

Tanith steps back and conjures a magical ball of fire on top of the formian. Amazingly, it seems to have little effect, if any, as it steps through the fire and launches a tremendous flurry of attacks on Tanith. Fortunately, only its stinger lands home, and other than the initial pain, Tanith doesn't feel any other effects.

The ant-dwarf hits Jonas hard with its battleaxe, opening a huge gash in Jonas's arm. Jonas lands a return blow into the creatures neck and is spattered with the things blood. Shai swings his hammer at it but misses as it collapses to the ground in a gurgling heap.

Dyspeer misses his opponent, but Courage strikes true, finally drawing blood on the thing. The dwarf responds with a vicious blow to Courage's face and the former paladin lands on the ground unconscious and in a growing pool of her own blood.

Shai swears at having missed out on the killing blow, but quickly turns his attention to the creature attacking Tanith. Swinging for all he had into the middle of the creature's back, he calls out "You splat next, critter."

[sblock=OOC]Dyspeer will stay defending Courage (i.e. attacking the dwarf-formian). Shai will shift to try to flank the beastie attacking Tanith.[/sblock]

The formian is on the other side of Tanith. Tanith is between Shai and the formian, but closer to the door.

There is currently an impressive ball of fire directly behind the formian (one that he walked out of, mind you.)

Jonas turns around, splattered in the blood of the formorian. He sees the Palladin fall to the ground, mortaly injured.

Forgive me, friend. We cannot win against two. Hold on. I won't let you die.

With a roar he charges the fomorian tying up Shai.

(Sorry, but I have no idea who stands where at the moment. Jonas wants to take out one of the fomorians so Shai and Dyspeeer can attack the other one, leaving him time to heal Courage, but I don't know if that's feasible.)

Jonas and Shai were fighting D2, an ant-like dwarf. D2 is currently dying.

Tanith is fighting a regular formian. It is currently pissing her off by proving her magic somewhat ineffective, as is evidenced by the flaming sphere directly behind it.

Courage and Dyspeer were fighting D1, another ant-like dwarf. Courage is currently dying, and Dyspeer is left alone with the dwarf.

Here's a fresh map.
