[sblock=ooc]Anti: sounds like a plan! 
Also: as it turns out, I've been doing my shield's power wrong. It's not +1 to AC; it's +1 to defenses. Man that's an awesome shield. (Wouldn't have made any difference so far, but I will try to get it right in the future.)[/sblock]
Seeing Jarren's spirit companion move into position, Unit 16 smiles and raises his warhammer high above his head for a mighty blow... and once again, like every other time this great combo has been attempted, fails completely to connect - in fact, he nearly smashes his own foot... for the umpteenth time.
Tired of failing repeatedly, Unit 16 concentrates on doing something that he knows will work. Taking advantage of the fact that the warforged was still off-balance from his last attack, he sends a blast of cold air his way, pushing him slightly - but enough to knock him to the ground with a heavy thud. He then shifts to completely block the corner - the shards of ice shifting with him - and gets the attention of those around him.
[sblock=ooc]standard: Earthgrasp Strike on hobgoblin: natural 1! AGAIN!
/sigh. 3rd one this encounter, in fact. Guess I'm back to the old Unit 16? I even thought about using a potion of clarity but I mean if you can't hit with a +14, why waste a daily item power? I even had a cool taunt all thought up and ready for when I knocked that guy to the ground!
minor: Warden's Tempest: slide warforged to B32; because he leaves the zone he falls prone and takes 4 damage
I hate to waste the prone like that (and mess up flanking opportunities). I REALLY thought about sliding him to C34, where he'd have to stand and then move and not be able to attack - but I also REALLY don't want to keep standing on the edge of the water here, and this way they are all boxed up pretty badly (I don't think the bow guy has line of sight to anyone else). Hope that's ok!

Ryda grunts as the axe grazes her thigh, filling her with her heritage's fury. Using the momentum of the swing, she swivels around and glides up onto the bridge. FINE! You want my attention, you got it! she yells, firing one arrow after another. She then continues across the bridge and tucks in next to Jarren.
Talkrai continues to bash away at the enemy warforged relentlessly. She is not dissuaded by it healing itself. She knows that it is like a wall, standing in the way of reaching the more dangerous opponents. As another of her blows lands true and takes a chunk from it's armor, she finds more healing energy to send at her companions. She directs it toward Ryda, as she tumbles away from the Genasi.
Pis throw his dagger at the Genasi, wounding him. He then starts to get his Gappling hook out of his backpack.

[SBLOCK=OOC] It's Jarren turn then the enemy.
Combat:
We will use Mal's Combat System, which mean:
- Heroes go in one block and enemies go in one block once we will fall in normal initiative.
- Heroes goes in post order.
- Effect that last Until the End of The Next Turn (UEoNT) can affect you only once, even if you act twice during the effect is in effect because some goes first in a round and last in the next.
- Defenses shown in the stats block for enemies is the lowest result that have hit.
River:
- Someone who fall into the water sink at the bottom of the river.
- The Swin DC is 15
- Success allow the swimmer to swim through the water as it is difficult movement as part of is move action. He can also grip himself to the wall. Someone grip don't need to swim and is considered climbing the wall for all combat purpose. He then need to climb on the ground. The rough surface is slippery (you are wet) and unusually smooth, but you can help yourself with the water, so DC 20.
- Failure by less then 5, the swimmer is slided 1 square east by the strong current.
- Failure by 5 or more, the swimmer is slided 3 squares east by the strong current and sink at the bottom.[/SBLOCK]

A few more attack rolls in this fight and I don't know if you can recover, Bob. In the mean time, keep it up. At least you've got me rolling above average, and not drowning. *knock on wood*[/sblock]Ha - thanks guys!

Jarren cracks a smile despite the gravity of the situation as his patented double team manoeuvre with Susan once again produces spectacularly poor results. It seems luck just isn't with them.
With equanimity he pulls his companion back to a position where it can support Talkrai as well as Susan, and calls upon potent spirits of life and renewal. Wounds knit and tired limbs feel reinvigorated in the soft glow that radiates from the serpent's scales.
The glow lasts only a moment, and then the spirit shifts in the blink of an eye to a more fearsome aspect as it uncoils to strike straight past the warforged and menace his hobgoblin ally with vicious bites to the face and neck. Supernatural dread presses down upon the hogboblin, leaving him focused blindly on the spirit snake which now seems to glow with a baleful energy as it hisses malevolently at him.
[sblock=OOC]Call Spirit Companion to C33
Healing Spirit on Unit 16 - he spends a healing surge and gains 8 bonus hp. Secondary effect heals Talkrai for 1d6+3=5 hp.
Unit 16 and Talkrai both gain 5 THP.
Certain Threat on the Hobgoblin: 1d20+10=29 vs Ref. Damage 2d6+7=13 and the Hobgoblin is marked by the Spirit (-4 penalty to attacks that don't include it) TENT.
Also, Protector Spirit Adept grants Susan and Talkrai +1 to Fort/Ref/Will defenses as long as they are adjacent to the spirit.[/sblock]
[sblock=Tactics]Hope it's okay to overwrite your mark here Bob. I figure it might help to prevent the Hobgoblin from chucking you in the drink again if one of his powers recharges, and you should be able to re-mark easily enough, if he even survives another round.[/sblock]
