Message: <blockquote data-quote="H.M.Gimlord" data-source="post: 4984179" data-attributes="member: 79440">The writhing plague of rats scampers out of the hole onto the floor above; an opportunity that Talon takes.  He manages to skewer a few of them just before they swarm over Rujah’s feet, biting and gnawing at his boots, which seem to be holding,…for now.        While Rujah kicks at the rats and Talon wonders if Fenwick was right about how they taste, they hear a rough voice yelling, “Get’em boys!”        Like bats from The Abysss two small draconic figures fly up the stairs in a flurry of leathery wings.  One of them snaps a warning at Talon, while the other takes a chunk out of Dayna, marring her beautiful coat with a hideous gash and streaks of warm blood.  The hovering drake hisses through blood-soaked teeth in a menacing laugh as they both fly back down the staircase from which they came.[sblock=Mechanics]Jin's attacks score 21, but rats take half damage, rounded down, from melee and ranged attacks, so total damage done to the rats by his attack is 10. Talon manages to do another 7 (see below).Rat Swarm Actions:Move: Climb to J17   OA from Jin: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2307345/" target="_blank">1d20+6=12</a> Miss    OA from Talon: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2307347/" target="_blank">1d20+5=16</a> Hit    Damage from Talon’s OA: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2307352/" target="_blank">1d10+3</a><a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2307729/" target="_blank"> + 1d6=14</a>, halved and rounded down = 7       Standard: Swarm of TeethTarget: RujahAttack: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2307355/" target="_blank">1d20+6=8</a> Miss.   BTW: Talon, Dayna, Rujah, and Fenwick are all in the Rat Swarm’s aura.
