[QUOTE="Chronosome, post: 803490, member: 274"] [color="yellow"]Ciliphan Galaril calmly watches as his more missile-inclined companions help stave off the gnoll invasion... Upon the hillock, the army of Little Dell and Band of Twilight fire arrows, bolts, and spells at the dogmen--dropping them like goblins... Suddenly from the forest caves, roaring into the fray come gnoll-trained [i]girallons[/i]! Four-armed, savage, albino gorillas! They storm up the hills tearing through the peasant armies--dropping [i]them[/i] like goblins... One particularly fierce girallon rushes the Band's hill, with hot rage burning in its eyes...
