Coraine stands firm, ready to hew any bugbear which comes within reach. He taunts the hairy humanoids.
"Is that the best you can do, you dog-faced dung? Go find a pile of your mother's droppings and roll in it! Then you might at least have the whiff of death about you."
Dara and Lucius stand firm with Coraine, their weapons at the ready for the first bugbear to come within striking range.
Verdis directs another blast of arcane energies toward the wounded bugbear on the front rank, again striking the beast. The force of the strike forces the bugbear to clutch at the wall to remain standing, but it seems the creature still has a bit of fight left in him.
Kine still sings, his arm still slings, the wound in his side yes, it still stings. Letting loose a bullet from his weapon, the elf smiles as it strikes the bugbear square on and drops him into a heap on the floor.
Otto, his daggers having been thrown, draws his sling as he moves into a better firing position and lets loose a bullet at another opponent. The projectile is on target, but the bugbear drops at the last moment, and receives only a glancing blow.
Jorb continues his javelin barrage, but still fails to strike an enemy. It is fast becoming apparent that he may not be as skilled with the thrown weapons as you would like.
The bugbears, their supply of javelins now exhausted, brandish their morningstars and prepare for close combat. They continue to hold their positions, attempting to draw you into the corridor.
“Tsk, cowards" mutters Ragnok while he advances towards the nearest bugbear with a steady pace. Trying to block the spiked head of the goblinoid's weapons with his shield, Ragnok hacks at his enemy, intent on cleaving its shoulder. While Ragnok manages to avoid one of his opponent’s strikes, the other bugbear slips its weapon in past the dwarf’s guard, striking a solid blow. Ragnok responds in kind, and slashes the beast across the chest with a heavy blow of Norryjar.
