Keith -- looking on, either confident his fellows can handle it or confident he doesn't want a part of it

Arana with Fian are walking down the pathway and sees the conflict. If she wants she can move close enough to be within melee range at the start of next round, or to charge on this round.

Victor drops his sword, and casts a healing spell on the monster. It writhes and shrivels, fluttering about.

waiting to see actions for the next round.

Ellie

Seeing the rest of the students involved in combat with some sort of thing, ellie will attempt to assist however she can.

"Hold on I'll try help if I can. Keith either help out or get some of the guards!"

I do as I wish...

Keith watches calmly, "I am searching for weaknes... no need to charge in innefectively... this creature seems immune to physical attack... if you have magic or the psionic arts then please by all means assist..." his voice flat and unmoved.

OOC: Initiative 12+8=20... going to follow Ellie and use his wand of Cure Light Wounds to try and harm the creature... if possible

Rallyn Loddry

Bereft of any enchanted weaponry, or the means to do whatever it was Victor just did that seemed to work, Rallyn attempts to at least keep the creature interested him continues to swing his halfspear ineffectively through it.

Maybe I can at least keep its attention on me a little longer and give the others time.. This is going to hurt..

 

[evileeyore]

Kith feels naked-no magicall attacks!

“Magic only eh? Damn it! Turin to me!”

“I got nothing to use on this creature, but I can keep it busy!”

Kith moves forward and prepares to cast when Turin is in range. His hands begin the movements and the words beginning on his tongue.

“Ithil lavamin ile tel’quenat!”

Will cast Sheild on myself and Turin as soon as he poings onto me. Sheild will be kept between me and the MantaShadow, trying to move to be within 10' or so of it.

Ellie cries out for Keith to help or go get help.

new round

Kith calls Turin back to him and as soon as the little ferret scampers close, he casts a Shield around them both.

Keith readies a wand. He follows Ellie in to where the creature is and focuses on using the wand, bending the ensorcelled stick of wood to his will, but it doesn't work.

Rallyn tries to distract the creature, fighting defensively, flailing about, knowing he has no chance to hurt it directly.

The creature, obviously wounded earlier, cries out in an inhuman shriek of pain, then swoops into the frozen flagstones of the courtyard.

*** end combat time***

The air is silent and still now. No more of these inky creatures seem to be about, even though you look around watchfully for a few minutes.

300 XP for those involved in this battle, no matter how indirectly.

Rallyn Loddry

Rallyn pats Victor on the hip.

"Nice shot, kid. You okay? Did he hurt you?"

What was that thing? Ghost? Spirit? Foe? Gone now, geez--

Rallyn winces as he smiles up at Victor and checks on the rest of the students.

--I'm gonna feel that tomorrow... Everyone seems ok though. Where the hell are the rest of the guard?

 

[Dalamar]

When he arrives to his room, Sildarin takes of his leather armor and folds it on a chair. He unbuckles his belt and puts it, along with his rapier, on the table.
He then removes his shirt and moves on to his bed. He sits down on the bed and crosses his legs and starts meditating.

Wake me up when the rays of the sun hit the window, Slith.
That early? What are you going to do?
I'm going to go out and practise some moves with the rapier.
Couldn't you just do it later and let me be in peace a bit more? I really could use some time of my own.
Your own? The only way for us to not hear each other, is to separete us by a mile or so.
Dang!
My thoughts excatly sometimes.

 

[GnomeWorks]

That was an interesting fight. I didn't take part, but it was interesting to watch. I wonder why that one shadow-thing wasn't with the others, though. That seems somewhat odd...

Rallyn, though, now that was strange. He tried keeping it focused on him, even when we was hit by it... and that looked like it hurt! You have to wonder where a guy gets the idea to do something like that...

Charlotte walks up to where everyone else is.

"We should watch out for more of those, as there might be more where that one came from. We should be careful."

She then turns to Rallyn.

"Are you going to be okay?"

I wonder how bad he is hurt... not that I can help him any, but I should be nice to him. He was willing to sacrifice himself to save all the others. Unnecessary, probably, but it's the thought that counts...

Rallyn Loddry

"We should watch out for more of those, as there might be more where that one came from. We should be careful."

Rallyn nods.

"Are you going to be okay?"

"Me? I think so. The wound will heal with a couple of days rest if the healers don't get to me first so I wouldn't worry about it. Thanks."

Rallyn smiles and leaves out the sickening cold feeling in his stomach and the fact that he's leaning on his shortspear to support just his own weight.

It'll go away... Just need some rest, I'm sure. Though Serbanas better get me a bonus for tonight. I wonder if this is what Iulus whimisically talked about as "meat-shields" for wizards...

Rallyn grins, bows, and stumps off using his short spear's haft as a walking stick for what he hopes looks like no good reason. He keeps his eyes out for any more strange occurences but resolves to fetch other guardsman this time...
