[QUOTE="Deskjob, post: 5216666, member: 84205"] [b]Marko, Field of Battle[/b] [B]Round 1. Intv #3.[/B] From underneath his shield the shoemaker watched Robert with mild interest. Everyone had taken cover except himself. Marko was trained in the use of the "Shield Wall" technique and this new development was alien to him. Not to mention he never remembered anyone bothering to tell him about a battle-plan. He would make a mental note to ask about that next time, [I]before[/I] he took the front-and-center position. The good news was that the Treylor believed in honor. Otherwise they would have attacked the previous night rather than take the field. He could only imagine their faces as they watched their opponents scramble for cover. It was probably not the same expression that the shoemaker held right now. An expression of doubt and shame. Marko was a team player and right now he looked every bit the stupid lone wolf. Emphasis on the word "stupid". As his future commander Loreen screamed at him, he could only frown at his own misfortune. However, the brief interlude between the arrows offered an opportunity... Marko rose from his crouched position, took two confident steps forward, shook his sword in the air and roared triumphantly [COLOR="Olive"]"Hurraaagghh!"[/COLOR] He then assumed his crouched turtle position. With the archers sighting range on the barricades, the safest place to be was away from them. ...Right down in front. Besides, some of those Treylor archers were bound to try and aim for him anyway. And that is just one more arrow Loreen wouldn't have to worry about. ...She would never forgive him for this, he knew that. He just pressed his ear against his shield and awaited his fate. Cambi save his stupid hide... [COLOR="DimGray"][SIZE="1"]ooc: move: 1 square. action: total defense. free: shout. Ac: 19+4[/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
