[QUOTE="Jack of Tales, post: 4091514, member: 59475"] [b]Battle Round 1[/b] The creature's malevolent look caused everyone to pause momentarily (nice initiatives guys lol). Round 1: The beast tears into the man before him slashing a large, deep mark across his face. He screams in pain blood splashes the morning snow. Smoothy runs forward in his plate armor yelling tactics to his allies. Felidae follows behind, drawing her weapons as she advances and using her divine power on the creature. She can feel the evil radiating off of it. The human guard steps backward and hides behind his shield. Alathiel moves into range with her bow [You still have a standard action you can use to attack with. Post it with your next round] and searches her memory for anything that may be of use against the creature. Unfortunately, she cannot seem to bring forth anything useful. Gerraint runs at the beast while Xavier follows slightly behind with the rest of the party. Xavier's challenges to the creature seem to be ignored and it focuses on killing the human before it. Round 2: The hooded figure steps forward and lets out a chilling cackle as it swings at the guard. The guard replies only with a scream but managed to fend off the blow with his shield. Smoothedcrest moves in on the creature and is surprised as it turns quickly to him and it extends one clawed hand and it's claw spikes out toward Smoothedcrest. The goliath raises his shield in time to barely deflect the clawed hand. Felidae charges forward and lets out a ferocious growl as she calls upon the divine power of order to smite the evil beast. She swings her scimitar and a flash of dull silver light shoots through the creature's arm as it howls in pain. The human guard runs backward away from the fight while Alathiel moves in closer and lines up her target. The arrow flies true and strikes the beast in the chest. It makes no sound and no blood flows from it. You can not be sure if you even hurt it. Xavier moves around the creature hoping to gain a flanking position, but as he moves it swiftly turns and its claws stretch and bend, reaching out further then expected. However, Xavier had seen the creature do the same to Smoothedcrest and he was prepared. As its claws slashed at him he ducked to the ground and rolled beneath it's arm coming up on the other side with weapons drawn ready to join the fight. Geraint bravely charges forward leveling his spear at the cloaked creature. Unfortunately, as he levels his spear and jabs outward at the beast, it moves ever so slightly resulting in the blade brushing past it harmlessly. [i]Initiative:[/i][sblock] ? Creature: 18 Smoothy: 15 Felidae: 11 Human guard: 10 Alathiel: 10 Xavier: 5 Geraint: 4 [/sblock] [i]Battlefield Effects[/i][sblock] Smoothedcrest's Stance: -4 attack vs. allies [/sblock] Combat Log: [sblock] Round 1: Creature attacks human guard: 21, hit (11 damage). Smoothy moves in. Felidae moves in. Human guard retreats, uses full defense. Alathiel shoots ? (?) and uses Knowledge skills. Xavier moves in and issues a challenge, ignored. Geraint moves in.
