Harnrey takes a crossbow bolt and aims as carefully as possible and speaks the word and lets it flay at the same stirge that he shot before.

1d20-1=13, (actual roll is 14 due to bless i think is in effect)

Math; bab +1; dex +2; shooting at a stirge that is in melee combat priceless -4; bless +1

Keeland

Dropping his bow, Keeland pulls his sword and swings (1d20+2=12) at one of the stirges. Despite the awkwardness of swinging at a foe attached to his own body, Keeland manages to land a solid blow.

Swing & a Miss

Aodhán is distracted by the fluid in his eyes, the stinging pain of it sends his next attack wild. He curses in frustration as he looks at the mosquito.

Everyone remember the +1 from Bless.

Damage from harnrey's bolt:
1d8=2

man it is nice to make the hit, but it really is frustrating when all it does is nick the poor target to death!
 


Stepping up to protect his friend Tsadok smacks one of the Stirges with his sap, dislodging it and knocking it to the ground unconscious. The bard takes care of the other, handling his long sword deftly in spite of the close range.

Aodhán bats ineffectively at the air with his axe, and a stream of dwarvish invective blasts from his general direction.

Harnry takes careful aim and launches a crossbow bolt toward Houwlou. The bolt pierces the bloated body of the stirge he hit previously. It's now hanging limply from Houwlou's leg (it's dead). However, the turbulence caused by the swinging axe disrupts the stirge's flight pattern and it fails to attach to the cursing Abhác as well.

Houwlou feels his knees get a little wobbly as the stirge attached to him continues to draw his blood into it's already bloated body.

OOC: One more point of CON damage for Houwlou, and I need an action for him to finish the round.

Houwlou Groulenas

Woozy from blood-loss, Houwlou drops his longsword and draws his other dagger, so that he has a dagger in each hand, and he proceeds to ginsu the critter feasting upon him, and he sinks the dagger in his good left hand deep into the bloodsucker, 2 daggers against the attached stirge (1d20+5=24, 1d4+3=7, 1d20+4=9, 1d4+3=4).
