Message: <blockquote data-quote="Antithetist" data-source="post: 5268622" data-attributes="member: 88443">"Serris, move quick. I need your spot." Grys shouts.  Serris duly moves aside, going to egg on Baracus as he pummels his victim. Grys blinks to the centre of the chamber, unleashing fiery magic upon the flyers. All but one of them gives a blood-curdling scream of pain as the fire catches and lights them up.Filled with the anger of Balinor at these foul creatures, kal'Tarron is  energized as he slays one. He then turns and swears another oath, this  time at one of the winged abominations perched above him. The avenger  then swings his axe at the winged corpse, slashing deeply into its foul  flesh - but is blow is weakened by the effects of the attacks he has  suffered and is not as strong as it might have been.  In the path of his axe, there is a bloody radiance, sparkling and surging, wrapping him in a protective field of radiant energyMythra smirks at the undead near him and uses his Eladrin powers to  teleport safly behind Orsik. He then uses the chance to catch his  breath.Baracus curses as the zombie throws more ... whatever it is that he is  throwing... at his allies. The brawler sinks his fingers in deeper, move  into the corner of the room, dragging the corpse with him and slamming  the enemy into the wall, the force jolting him from Baracus' hands, but  leaving the enemy on the ground. Baracus takes advantage and punches  down hard on the creatures neck and holds it down.   "Let's see you try that again" he says to the struggling corpse, risking a quick look over his shoulder at the others "You all ok over there? he shoutsOrsik tries to protect Mythra by holding off the two closest foes. but his first swing is a miss. * * * The putrid corpse squirms and writhes beneath Baracus, but proves completely unable to escape his iron grip. It does, however, lash out in its struggles, and in its wild flailings it manages to land a solid blow with one rotting fist which leaves Baracus's head ringing (and slathered liberally with ichor). Each of the flying monstrosities takes an ungainly hop back from melee range, disengaging and taking to the air once more. The air is filled with the flapping of leathery wings and chaos reigns as the creatures go swooping for new targets. The party proves more than capable of defending themselves against the assault, however, with only Grys taking any wound of consequence from their diving attacks.[sblock=Ire  Strike]<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2636404/" target="_blank">1d20+11=18</a>, +2 for CR,  -5 due to aura = 15, miss vs AC[/sblock][sblock=OOC - rb780nm]Your Oath lets you roll attacks twice and take the better result when its target is the only enemy adjacent to you. You had two enemies adjacent to you this turn, so you would have used your first attack roll (and missed).  However, you had a move action available, and could have shifted to a position where you could use your oath. I'll assume that's what you'd prefer - I've assumed a shift to B7. Let me know if you'd prefer C6 or something else entirely.  On your damage: I count 11 - 23/2, rounded down. Where did 16 come from? I'm counting it as 11 for now, tell me if I missed something.[/sblock][sblock=Enemy Actions]Firstly, my bad: Mythra's critical hit on rw should have killed it instantly due to Zombie Weakness. Sorry for the mix-up. Luckily it hasn't actually done anything, so just removing it a round late won't make any difference. Also, my previous mention of regeneration failing to function on the flyers was a mistake - they don't have regeneration.c - regenerates 5 gp.
