[QUOTE="Hrothgar, post: 3620517, member: 22226"] Lodric makes the first bold move as the two forces clash in a thunderous din. Crouching low under the ogre's warbar, Lodric swings a furious roundhouse that impacts on the solar plexus of the ogre, actually denting the terrible beast's armor. The ogre steps back visibly shaken, but shrugs off the pain of the blow and swings his warbar at the Erenlander. Lodric's vision swims red and stars as the warbar connects with his shoulder. [COLOR=SlateGray]OOC: My save for the ogre was [URL=http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1131014]15[/URL]! Mmmm, OK, I accidentally used a Reflex save bonus - he would have made it by more if I had used his Fortitude bonus. Lodric hit the ogre and did some good damage, but got hit in return for 14 points of damage.[/COLOR] Fearing for Lodric, Kaela shapes Aryth's magic into brilliant motes of piercing energy that slam into the ogre. The ogre screams in pain, its beady eyes growing red with hatred. [COLOR=SlateGray]OOC: Kaela slammed the ogre with magic missile.[/COLOR] Herger rolls his neck confidently, loosening his muscles in a relaxed manner as the blood-raging orcs bear down on him. As the first nears him, his axe sweeps out, shearing through abdomen and legs of an overbalanced orc. The orc screams and falls to the ground, its life-blood leaking onto the leaf-covered stones. Herger spins with the axe, using its momentum to crash into the shield of another charging orc. The axe smash slows the orcs momentum, but does little else.
