"And I had thought, in the interests of showing the Flame's mercy, not to kill anyone. If you try my patience, though..." She trailed off, and pointed her staff at the hobgoblin, who was the only enemy she could attack from the hall. She didn't know if they were intentionally staying far enough apart that she couldn't target two of them with one prayer (save for calling on something she rather wanted to keep in reserve), but it was annoying.
And a still-nonlethal blast of radiant energy hit the hobgoblin square in the chest.
Baern throws his big waraxe Tooth up to block the human's strike. It strikes him in the jaw and then the ranger draws his other weapon to swing them both at his foe.
Veruza continues glancing over her shoulder and back to the doors,
Cairn, Nyar can keep the whistler blocked in that room with his magic. Help Baern, it's three on one in there, and I can't do it alone. Let's finish these three off quickly, they've proven completely uncooperative. Maybe the whistler can be convinced to join us after their dispatched with.
Cairn nods at the priestess and closes the door. At least there want be something totally surprising coming out from there.
He then turns and passes through the door stopping once he sees the lizardman behind the door. He continues rounding it and slams Ghalad Zar into it, weight of the earth pressing onto it's limbs.
"She's right big guy, go help Baern!" Nyar maintains his concentration on the pillar of lightning.
I'm in after you Cairn! Veruza went dashing down the hall, through the door, and toward the first visible enemy she saw. Spinning in a circle, Veruza extended her arms, bringing the full blade 360 degrees around and at the human. The telegraphed swing proves amateurish, and the gladiator ducks out of the way with time to spare.
Where's, Veruza snaps her head back,
CAAAIIIRN! the long elaborate whine is grating on the ear,
Concentrate on one at a time, help me, help Baern.
Veruza then brought a prayer to her lips, but staved off the urge to heal Baern, wanting to save her healing for when it was needed most desperately.
The Lizardman moves around Cairn, hits him in the leg, and then moves away.
"Take him down." the Hobgoblin shouts as he points to Baern. The human backs away, feints, and moves back in, the Lizardman moves over to get closer to Baern, and the Hobgoblin moves in and smashes Baern hard in the side.
"Youse easy dwarf." the human says as he punches Baern hard in the throat and in the top of the head. Baern reels and tries to prevent himself from falling.
[sblock=OOC]
Note: Veruza's charge was illegal. A PC can only move from E6 to F6 to get into the room and Veruza's first move ended at E6 at speed 5. A move from E6 to F5 is illegal (diagonal movement across an obstacle is not legal). A charge requires that each square of movement bring the creature closer to the target. Moving from E6 to F6 is not moving closer to the creature. Since Cabana rolled a natural 1, I'm just going to rule that Veruza moved to F2 on her own and used two move actions to do it. No change to the end result.
