[QUOTE="renau1g, post: 5173900, member: 54810"] Even Jax is a little surprised at how fast the big man fell. What a wuss. He turns his attention to Crag, who is now surrounded by hostiles. Jax skirts around the reach of the men to get behind one of them. With the guard so distracted by Crag, it's easy for Jax to pinpoint the thinnest part of the hide armor at the waistline and stab into the small of the man's back. Jax's blade cuts a supporting strap of the armor, causing it to shift lopsidedly onto one side. The guard is vulnerable, at least for a few seconds until he can readjust his armor. Taking his beating in stride, the stone skinned warden looks around at the guards around him before giving them a wicked grin. Calling upon his patron spirit of earth, Crag summons a horde of halfling shaped piles of stone. Jumping out at the warforged's enemies, the summoned horde attempts to grab onto one or more of the guard's legs before sinking halfway back into the ground. With the guards distracted by the horde, Crag takes a moment to reach into his innermost reserves of energy, repairing his massively dented and torn chassis. Crag's cloak shimmers for a moment as he synchronizes with his newly purchased magical item, further knitting together the torn strands of wood and metal that make up the warden's form. Dorn's mouth falls open at Crag's heroic display of resilience in the face of so many adversaries, though his reaction cannot be seen through the shadowy veil of his shroud. The half-orc (along with his shroud) moves across the battlefield. [COLOR=Cyan] I hope his defenses can take a little more punishment[/COLOR], Dorn thinks. [COLOR=Cyan]"Crag! Incoming!"[/COLOR] A blast of cold erupts right in front of Crag's feet, sending shards of freezing arcane power everywhere. Unable to fully control his own power, a blast of force erupts from Dorn, pushing anything and everyone in its wake. The spell finishes off the enemy that Jax and Crag had been working on. [COLOR=DarkOrchid][COLOR=White]Unsure of whether or not his plan would work, Meepo knew there was nothing to it but to do it.[/COLOR] "Well, here goes nothing."[/COLOR] He jumped backwards and then pointed at the dwarf on the wall. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]"You're mine, stonechild." [/COLOR]Meepo bolted forwards, scrambling up Ingot's back, and without pause, wrapped a length of the whip around the dwarfs right leg.

As he swings close to Ingot, he feels the warforged grab his scaly leg. [COLOR=DarkOrchid]"Yay! Teamwork.

Seeing the kobold's feet dangling directly in front of its eyelights, it reaches up, grasps the kobold's ankles, and pulls. The dwarf strains against the warforged and pulls hard himself, shaking the enemies off. [sblock=Ingot] You notice that there are some sort of straps tying the dwarf down.
