(Double Move)  "Finnean, wait!" Ironheart bellows. His leaves tremble in horror as he realizes how far away the rogue has gotten, how exposed and vulnerable. "Not again..." he whispers as visions of trees crashing down around him flood his mind. Hefting his axe, he charges towards the tower with a bestial roar. He seems to grow taller, his legs longer and his upper branches thicker as he stumps over the ground. His top crown of branches begin curl and sweep back, except for two which sweep forward in twisting files and thicken to form solid horns. Tilting forward as he runs, Ironheart screams across the battlefield like a ballista bolt. And suddenly he is pounding up the ramp into the tower. He spots Finnean surrounded by foes, and doesn't hesitate - he bulls past him and barrels into the leading goblin. Goblins! It was these foul creatures that cut down his grove! Ironheart's axe swings around in a deadly arc and, aided by his deadly momentum, cuts through both of the goblin's legs in a single sweep. Blood sprays out behind it as it topples to the ground, felled like deadwood. (Double Move; AP – Charge (HIT))   [gm] @<a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=79945" target="_blank">JoeNotCharles</a> : First off cool turn!At the top of the ramp it is 6 squares to the top of the tower. From the bottom of the entry ramp, it is 7 squares.[/gm]  Cyrus streaks across the open ground as fast as he possibly could. Like a shadow racing to beat the ever rising sun. (Double Move)  [gm] Second Chance: MBA (Short Sword) against Finnean (AC 18+6(Opening Move)):+8 vs. AC; 1d6+3 damage: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3258116/" target="_blank">1d20+8=21, 1d6+3=5</a> MISS[/gm]  When the wood man burst in and cleaved through the lead goblin, Finnean grinned at the remaining goblins and taunted them. "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!" Finnean pats his friend on the back."Thanks Wood Man." The halfling grabs a dagger and tosses it at one of the remaining goblins. The blade catches the goblin in the center of the chest, puncturing a lung. Finnean then moves to cut off more reinforcements from coming down the stairs. (HIT)     "Oh Gods, make it stop, make it stop, MAKE IT STOP. It's raining arrows and death." Jesse covers his head with his hands and scrambles forward on all fours, across the battlefield. (Double Crawl)     The sharpshooters have all reloaded and take aim at the advancing heroes. After they shoot, through the tower’s crenelations, you notice that two sharpshooters have moved out of view, leaving a lone sharpshooter atop the tower. (HIT, HIT & HIT)     The cutters move quickly through the door and attack the intruders. (HIT, MOVE, MOVE & MOVE)     A loud chittering sound envelopes Finnean as from underneath the door boils a swarm of rats. (MISS)  [gm] @<a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=78756" target="_blank">Son of Meepo</a> : Be sure to make a MBA against Finnean for the swarm’s aura for the first action during your next post.[/gm]  From higher up in the tower, you hear a deep, booming voice, mostly spoken in an unknown dialect of goblin, with a few words spoken in common added. ”Intruders!...[unintelligible]…KILL THEM!”.   [sblock=Finnean]Make a Perception Check DC 18  [sblock=Make]You hear a faint cry for help drifting from the dark stairway leading down.
