Caught in a gust, Spratnik's arrows turn -- one clatters at Karnak's feet, the other punches through Teak's scale, though the orc hardly notices, embroiled in his righteous fury, acknowledging the wound with a grunt.Instead, Teak focuses his pale eyes on his more worthy opponent. As Karnak froths into a rage, stray drool spattering Dawnrider's armor, he claws at Teak with gauntleted hands. One Teak catches on his shield, the cruel barbs sticking in wood before being wrenched out, while the other simply scratches shrilly against Teak's scale armor, the ear-piercing noise amplified by the surrounding stone. Many in the crowd clamp hands to their ears.Ponderously keeping Karnak at bay with his warhammer, Teak tosses his shield to the ground, grabbing Vrek by the throat. "You are no use to me dead," Dawnrider growls, before a stray ray of sunlight races up Dawnrider's arm and sears shut some of the goblin's wounds, stemming some of the blood flow over his leathers. Vrek howls in pain and simply glares at Teak as the orc roughly returns Vrek to his feet.Jrag, observing all this down a crossbow sight, cannot secure a clean shot at Vrek. Even as the goblin, perhaps wising up, pushes off his pole to leap behind an outcropping, hidden from Spratnik's cruel arrows.The crowd gasps as Razzit finishes his quick and subtle thaumaturgy. As the witch doctor blows through the fur, upon Karnak, very years of the orc's life blow away as well, the cruel orc's hair visibly graying at the temples, the lines of his face deepening, his teeth yellowing. Startled at the change, Teak ducks to avoid Razzit's exhale.Spratnik misses Vrek the Poler, his rapid shots hitting AC 8 and AC 12. AC 12 is near enough Vrek the Poler's AC to randomly reroll for a target, target is Teak Dawnrider, Spratnik's arrow does 5 damage!Karnak misses Teak Dawnrider, hitting AC 11 and AC 13.Teak Dawnrider drops his shield, then uses Lay on Hands on Vrek the Poler.Jrag reloads his crossbow.Vrek the Poler takes a Withdraw action to C4.Razzit casts Bull's Strength on Karnak, and a greater surge occurs, aging Karnak by five years! Karnak receives +4 to Strength, 3 minutes remaining. Barkskin, +2 to Razzit and Gorefang's AC, 30 minutes remaining. (-SIN- if you could post in the OOC thread about how old you think Karnak is please do. We might need to make adjustments for being middle aged.)Initative -- Spratnik (12), Karnak (11), Teak Dawnrider (11), Jrag (9), Vrek the Poler (4), Razzit (2).<img src="http://img462.imageshack.us/img462/8127/arenaxp6.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></blockquote>
