[QUOTE="Systole, post: 6608549, member: 93930"] The shaman's legs go out from under him as Pirvinia magically coats the ground beneath his feet with grease. He crawls forward on hands and knees, still shouting a warning. The chieftan comes barreling down the passageway faster than something that short should be able to move, and hurdles the slippery patch with ease. He lands on the far side and skids to a stop on the gravel floor, then turns around, sniffing the air. Other goblins begin moving back to support the shaman and the chief, but are obviously confused by the lack of a visible foe. The rest of the horde continues pouring into the western room, attacking whoever they can. The sergeants hang back, shouting orders and firing into the melee. Two crossbow bolts narrowly miss Ru, and Samad tastes a nasty slash.
