Malvoisin's Savage Tide, Act 1 - There Is No Honor

Anar strikes out again with the sickle, hoping to manage a telling blow despite the poor positioning.

With the fall of the first foe, Keoni steps out, circling around the enemy to allow more of his friends a chance to strike. His dagger comes lashing out again as he stands over the fallen zombie and attempts to send its friend to join it.

[sblock]5ft step southeast.
Attack +1, 1d4+1

Anar should be able to take his spot and not have cover issues anymore.[/sblock]

Kalen prepares to jump forward since his elven knife has been so effective against the zombie but when Keoni moves to the spot he was trying to get to Kalen maneuvers to use the shaman as living cover to place himself further down to surround the last dead pirate and flank with Anar. His knife lashes out at the slow zombie's back just after Keoni's.

ooc Keoni moves just below Kalen so Kalen will move through his ally's space using him as cover to prevent AoOs from the zombie. Kalen will then be flanking with Anar and will gain the flanking bonus on his strike, I believe.

COMBAT ROUND 2

Keoni sidles to his left to make room for Anar in the doorway, but his dagger blow fails to connect with the remaining zombie.

Kalen considers trying to slip around behind the zombie, but he doesn't want to get in Chongo's way, and he also doesn't want to risk the thing's unnatural jaws. He decides to stay put for the moment.

Anar takes advantage of the spack Keoni opened up, sidestepping into the doorway, then chopping powerfully into the zombie with Col's sickle, leaving a nice wound in the curved blade's wake.

Col continues to stand at the ready with the healing wand in hand.

The zombie proves able to get the drop on Anar once again, and its nasty jaws close on the rogue's shoulder with predictably terrible results! The rogue manages to stay on his feet, despite the awful wound, but he looks pretty shaky.

Col immediately steps in and taps Anar with the bone wand, causing his wound to immediately close up some. It still bleeds, but not so badly now.

Chongo steps in closer to the zombie, hoping to put an end to its unlife, but the blade of his handaxe can;t quite get through the thing's rotting leather armor.

Bael pulls forth his bow and an arrow, then nocks and fires. He makes a brilliant shot, as the arrow flies unerringly between Chongo and Anar, to plunge right into the zombie's chest! Unfortunately, the dead pirate seems not even to notice the shaft now protruding from its body.

"Carsed Chongo! Cannae you hit anythin' w' that axe?!" Col keeps his wand handy. Someone had to keep these fools together.

OOC: Ready to heal again.

Continuing to circle around the zombie, Keoni catches it between himself and the rogue. Catching Anar's eye from the other side, the shaman does his best to coordinate their attacks, slicing when the zombie is turned away, hoping to score a telling blow.
