[QUOTE="Guilt Puppy, post: 1978326, member: 6521"] [b]Round 1/Round 2[/b] [i](autopilot)[/i] Aerda advances and attacks the orc near Fendric with his rapier, but fails to land a meaningful blow. Tatlock moves somewhere out of sight, in the direction of the backdoor. Niccolo, for now, is on full defense. Fendric draws and swings his flail, but also strikes only air. [i](Round 2)[/i] Downstairs, Nurthk's adversary drops quickly into a battle stance. He holds his weapon out to the side, and with a flick of his wrist both axeheads ignite in flames, illuminating the room. Quickly, he brings it forward, twirling, into three quick strikes. [b](Attack 18, Damage 12; Attack 16, Damage 13; Nat 20, 16 to confirm, damage 15, or 33 if critical)[/b] The orc from the top of the stairs heads down, drawing his blade, and stands over the girl, attacking Nurthk from behind. [b](Attack 12, Damage 6)[/b] Upstairs, the orc with an arrow in his neck steps behind Oliver and stabs with his scimitar. [b](Attack 20, Damage 8)[/b] Fendric's attacker continues his assault with his greataxe, but still shows little effectiveness. [b](Attack 9, definite miss.)[/b] There's no sign whatsoever what the orc in the back room might be up to. Oliver's next attack on Fendric's enemy fails, but the one after that finds its mark: One clean blow to the back of the orc's head, and the enemy falls. The old pitfighter then steps out of the way, to give Raven a clean shot. Shavah also disappears from sight, following Tatlock. Stepping forward, it takes just one shot for Raven to bring down the last orc in the room. [i](Hope no one minds any of the autopiloting, but given that most actions seemed reasonably clear, it seemed like time to move things forward.)[/i] [size=1][s]21 Orcs 20 Oliver 14 Shavah 13 Nurthk 11 Raven[/s] 11 Hiritus 9 Aerda 8 Tatlock 6 Niccolo 1 Fendric[/size] [/QUOTE]
