[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5298944, member: 2011"] With a grim visage on his face, Garrick focuses on tending his wounds and defending himself as he desesperatedly tries to find a suitable strategy against these foes.

[sblock=OOC] Terrain: The tables and chair squares are difficult terrain. To go horizontally or vertically through a round table is just difficult terrain.

Malehan hits Minotaur 2 for 24 and 24 and kills it. Note: Velmont, I need to know if you are killing the minotaur, or just knocking it unconscious. Garrick takes a break. Knoepf misses Minotaur 1. [url=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2664475/]Divine Guidance for Bane vs. Minotaur 1, 18 misses[/url] Note: I assume that Knoepf is shifting first and attacking second so that he doesn't provoke an Opportunity Attack.
