What works once, should work twice, thinks Kael as he fires off a second magic missile into the sinspawn.

Sinspawn Round 2
OOC: Sinspawn initiative of: 18. I rolled for Mandraiv too, as I could not see a post for him. Got a natural 20, so after the -1 it is 19. After I did the roll I realised that, well, he hadn't actually posted yet. i will give it a couple of house yet, and then I will assume an action for Mandraiv.
I also had to roll for Kael. I got a 4. Again, same thing for Danth. Got a 13.
Can you please all roll initiative each round within your action post, as it takes me a while to do the lookups and rolls. My approach is to roll initiative each round to capture the changing flow of combat. Thanks
Initiative order is: Mandraiv, Sinspawn, Jokad, Danth, Jovik, Kael
I will post the IC round soon - just a few more hours for Airwalkrr to post an action for Mandraiv first.

Jokad feels an overpowering wash of wrath, anger, and rage course through his body. These emotions are so powerful that the young barbarian finds it hard to channel himself towards the combat. He grits his teeth, wanting to scream out his rage, wanting to thrash his shoulders and bury himself in blood. He tries to hang on to his focus, tries to continue the fight, but it is so difficult.
The torch, spilled on the ground, flickers out of life. Mandraiv, acting quickly, impulsively, grabs his own sunrod and strikes it hard against the rough rock wall of the tunnel. It flashes brightly into light, saving his party from a fight in the darkness.
The Sinspawn, seeing Jokad suffer from its bite, moves in for the kill. Once again its finds its raking claws turned aside, but lunges forward once more, driving its horrid, split jaw, against the neck of the Shoanti. Jokad managed to grab the Sinspawn and shove it away from him before it can fully lock its jaw, but it still tears across his flesh with its row of needle-like teeth, causing him some pain and another wave of nausea.
OOC: 13, 6, 16 (claw, claw, bite) , causing 1 point of damage. (Jokad -1hp).
The young warrior stumbles in a daze of impotent fury. He is staggered, unable to do much more than move drunkenly.
OOC: Jokad needed to make ANOTHER DC 12 will save. He failed and is unable to do anything other than a single move action each round. This will continue for the next few minutes.
Fearing that his retreat will open himself up to attack, and clearly confused, he stands defensively, holding his shield before him.
With Sarenae's protections in place to deflect the foe's attacks, Danth steps forward and swings his mace. Unfortunately, the jostling between Jokad and the Sinspawn causes his timing to be off, and the weapon whistles past the creature's head.
Jovik, clearly impatient to get amidst the thick of battle, spins and rolls his way past the feet of his companions and into the very heart of combat. The Sinspawn yells in anger at the new entrant into the battle and turns to face the young rogue, but it is met by a piercing pain as Goblin Hook sinks deep into its chest. It pulls itself free and focuses its attention on Jovik.
OOC: Sinspawn -4hp, for a total of -14hp (-11hp, -4hp, +1hp fast healing)
Before the foul beast can recover from the deep wound to its chest Kael unleashes another bolt of eldritch energy that lances into the Sinspawn. It lets out a high-pitched, almost inaudible scream, as if calling for help, but still it does not drop.
OOC: Sinspawn -3hp, for a total at the end of the round of -17hp
Map at start of Round 3:
Please post initiatives and actions for round 3. Jokad, you can only do movement actions for this round.

Startled by the amount of damage that the Sinspawn is able to absorb, Kael continues his onslaught of arcane force as he lashes another bolt of power into the beast.

Sorry for forgetting to do initiative, I don't mean to forget so often and I'll remember.

Jovik slides to the side of the beast so Danth can move forward. It also draws the Sinspawns attention directly away from Jokad, leaving it's exposed back to Jokad. Jovik slashes again with Goblin Hook.

Jokad continues to hold his ground though his is clearly struggling to focus on the creature before him.
"Poison!", is all he manages to blurt out before another wave of confusion wracks his brain.
OOC: I know this is probably not a poison based on it being a WILL save but Jokad has no other way to relate to his dillema.
Thankfully I still have a lot of hp though 21/27.

if you have to roll a 1, I guess this is as good of time as any, right?

Sinspawn, round 3
OOC: Sinspawn initiative: 14
Order: Jovik, Sinspawn, Danth (yes, InvisibleCastle does hate you, I asked and it confirmed!), Kael, Jokad
The sinspawn ignores the now virtually incapacitated barbarian and focuses its full wrath on Jovik. Its sharp, almost blade-like claws, are thrust out towards the nimble youth. Jovik sees it coming, sees the simplicity of the attack. It is the same old tactic that the monstrosity had used on Jokad. It was using its unusual reach and fearsome claws to distract its pray while it went in for the kill with its vicious bite attack.
Jovik led it in. He took the first lunge easily, turning it away. Took the second, made it appear as if the Sinspawn had got him unfooted. And then the beast leapt forward, striking down with its jaw, its mouth splitting wide open at the sides, ready to tear his face off.
He turned then, shrugging off the all too obvious attack, and, having tricked the Sinspawn into over-extending, plunged Goblin Hook deep into the face of the foul beast. The dagger got buried up to the hilt.
The Sinspawn stopped. Its eyes darted around in the briefest hint of confusion. And then it fell.
OOC: Sinspawn killed. Congratulations everyone. Kael, you obviously didn't use up that spell. You are going to need it later, so just as well! I will post tomorrow to move things one, but please post in the interim. Jokad's sickness will last for 3 minutes, and then fade from him.
