[QUOTE="dave_o, post: 3479763, member: 2933"] [b]The Arena[/b] Spratnik jogs up next to Razzit, his bow [i]thwp[/i]-ing near Gorefang's ear, spooking a growl from the beast. Teak raises his left arm, instinctive, and takes the arrow clean through the forearm. The holy orc howls, and his cry seems to cause the rain to drip to the ground along with the blood from this new wound. His agony lets one of Karnak's gauntlets slip by, raking his throat in another spray of gore, though the second is caught on the haft of Teak's warhammer. Dawnrider spits, bloody, full on Karnak's gnashing face. "There is a demon in you!" He stoops, grabbing up his shield, keeping it between himself and the fury, stepping back. Black, eldritch bolts careen into his shield, blistering the arm behind it. "In all of you!" He spits in pain. Like mottled yellow lightning, Vrek vaults around the stony outcropping, his eyes burning at Jrag. Vrek leaps a few paces out from the enchanter, landing in a splash of dust to flick his spear up, punching through Jrag's throat, quickly in and quickly out. "Leave me by," Vrek rasps across the field of battle, "or I will end him." Blood gurgles down Jrag's front. No longer spooked from the arrow release, Gorefang lopes past Karnak, Razzit bouncing on his back. As the goblin incants the spell a screaming overcomes the quiet patter of rain slowly turning the arena floor to mud. The crowd yells in fear as the very ground quakes much as it did before, Razzit's red line thickening, overcoming Gorefang's head entire. "Behold," Teak points, slumped against the arena wall, weakly clinging to his shield and hammer, "he is the cause, the Bright Eye is even blotted out by the rains he brings!" Ignoring, of course, that the rain began at Teak's own howl of pain. [color=dimgray][i][b]Spratnik[/b] hits AC 24, dealing 7 damage to Teak. [b]Karnak[/b] hits AC 19, misses AC 11, dealing 8 damage to Teak. Buffs: +4 to STR and CON, +6 HP, +2 to Will saves, -2 to AC due to Rage, 6 rounds remaining. Additional +4 to STR due to Bull's Strength, 2 minutes 54 seconds remaining. [b]Teak[/b] readies his shield, takes a five-foot step to A10, and employs Total Defense.
