"Yes, we have to get out of here - but we can't leave Ragnok and Verdis. Kurt, you and Dara fall back. I'll keep it busy." With that, Coraine circles the creature ostentatiously, while still keeping a very close eye on it for further crushing attacks. He doesn't even attempt to get close enough to hit it.Ragnok groans as he jumps to his feet. Realizing that another heavy blow like the last would be his doom, the dwarf instead grabs a throwing hammer and hurls it toward the elemental. The hammer thuds into the beast's abdomen area, but seems to do little damage.Dara aims another, more careful, swing at the beast then takes a step backwards. The blade fails to injure the elemental's rocky form.The warlock lets another blast of eldritch energy fly at the elemental. "You'll have to move pretty damn fast to leave me behind. Worry about yourself." He takes another step back. The blast of arcane energies tears a large chunk from the earthen humanoid, causing it to roar again.Kurt swallows hard as he dodges the massive blow. He swings his longsword one more time and then once again uses his power of Sacred Purification, healing both Ragnok and Coraine. Kurt's blade finds solid purchase, cutting a decnt sized gouge in the elemental's form.The elemental again slams a mighty fist into Coraine's chest. Though the paladin's armor absorbs part of the blow, Coraine is propelled backward through the air, landing on his back at Verdis' feet. Spinning, the creature strikes at the next nearest target: Dara. The huge fist slams into her, possibly cracking a couple of ribs, but somehow she manages to maintain her footing.I expected this battle to be easier for you...I guess I didn't realize that you aren't a bunch of power attackers. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Initiative Count21 Coraine - 5' step, full defense for AC25; refl save vrs awesome blow 16 (failure)20 Ragnok - stand from prone; throwing hammer vrs E1 21 (success), damage 218 Dara - combat expertise 2 for AC23, falchion vrs E1 8 (failure); 5' step; refl save vrs awesome blow 15 (success)11 Verdis - eldrtich blast vrs E1 15 (success), damage 10; 5' step03 Kurt - longsword vrs E1 22 (success), damage 5; sacred purification (9 points); 5' step00 Earth Creature - slam vrs Coraine 29 (success), damage 18; slam vrs Dara 24 (success), damage 13PC StatusCoraine: 17/36, proneKurt 24/24Ragnok 14/32Dara 11/24, shield round 3 of 20 (AC21)Verdis 17/17</blockquote>
