Gurdan also feels bizarrely replenished as he attacks the warforged. Looking up, he notices Alexia smiling oddly at him.
Alexia then attempts to drive home a powerful blow of her own, but the sudden collapse of the table upsets her aim and she swings where her foe was a moment before. Cursing slightly, she rapidly strikes again in an attempt to pry even more armor from her foe. Then she moves away from her attacker.
"We can do this! Just keep them away from the-!" she suddenly cuts herself off, not wanting to reveal the location of the gem. However, her eyes nervously and visibly flicker over to the stove (ooc:
not the fireplace, because she's
lying).
[sblock=Round 2 Actions]Standard: Inspiring Refrain against Thief 5.
Hits AC 15 for 10 damage (I screwed up the attack bonus in the link, but I rolled a 3 so it doesn't really matter). That's going to miss even with the -2 AC, but if for some reason it hits, every ally within 5 squares of me gets a +1 power bonus to hit until the end of my next turn.
Action Point: Guiding Strike against Thief 5.
Hits AC 19 for 9 damage. That's including flanking, but not the -2 AC from last turns Guiding Strike. Again, I choose to debuff AC until the end of my next turn.
Move: Shift to D7.
Minor: Bluff check to try to sneakily make the thieves think the gem is near the stove (again,
not the fireplace). Got a
29.
Free: Use Virtue of Valor to give Gurdan 4 temp hp for bloodying Thief 5.[/sblock]
