[QUOTE="Pentius, post: 5717082, member: 6676736"] The Captain strides forth into the battlefield, worried at seeing his men disappear behind a tree. [b][color="royalblue"]"Troops, to me!"[/color][/b][color="royalblue"][/color] he calls out. Soon, a swarm of piskies and grigs surrounds the Captain, the troops' discipline lasting just long enough to get them there, but not enough to form ranks. One is missing, though. From a vantage point in the trees above Takahaan's shoulder, the Pict runs a tiny hand along his spear. The tiny fey chooses his moment, and leaps. Soaring through the air, eight ounces of concentrated warrior lands on the back of the shiv dragon's neck, his spear slipping through the beasts scales directly into the base of its spine. The dragon shudders and expires. The Pict gives Takahaan a sharp nod, and vanishes into the underbrush. Meanwhile, Noriaki whirls upon his attacker, ducking under a hasty blow and striking the cannibal down with a single elegant slice. The warrior flicks his blade, a small peal of thunder whipping the blood off of it, as he calls out, [b][color="deepskyblue"]"That's another foe defeated by Noriaki Matsumoto!"[/color][/b][color="deepskyblue"][/color] Without a foe to face, Noriaki takes a few steps toward where he last saw Takahaan, but when he finds the big dragonborn, Takahaan is already prying the dead dragon's jaws from his leg. With a smile, Noriaki turns to the cannibal harrying Hu Li. Like a flash, he charges the man, his sword leaving a deep gash in the cannibal's back. As Noriaki reverses his grip and goes for the final blow, the cannibal turns and catches Noriaki's blade on his spear haft. Looking into the foe's eyes, Noriaki smiles. A smile as cold as ice.
