Trevor draws steel and moves in to execute a flanking attack against the cleric facing Kurt. Catching the acolyte offguard, the soldier slides his blade through the man's back, severing his spine. "Yeah, that's right, you villanous priest, I fight DIRTY!"Kurt spins on heel, away from the falling gnoll he had just slain, and slashes his blade at the nearby human guard. Again, Hieroneous is with his servant, and the blade cuts through armor and flesh, cutting deep into the foe's chest and sending him crashing to the ground. Kurt steps into that position to help straighten the line, being careful not to stumble upon the two bodies lying there already. "We've got them!" he calls to the others in encouragement.The cleric jumps down to the earth from his perch upon the pyramid, landing lightly. He then proceeds to cast a spell, but none of your group seems to recognize it."Ye dented me armor!" Ragnok roars at the bugbear. With both hands gripped tight around Norryjar's hilt, the dwarf raises the axe over his head and swings it in a powerful downward chop at the hairy goblinoid. The blade cleaves through bugbear skull, showering all about with blood and gore.Another guard moves forward, and deals Kurt a painful cut across his thigh with his blade. A second guard tries to take advantage of the cleric's distraction, but to no avail...Kurt dodges the second strike.A gnoll engages Ragnok, but is unable to land a blow on the doughty warrior.An acolyte steps near the pyramid, and reaches over to touch the high priest, infusing him with the healing power of the earth.Verdis moves into the earth temple, launching an eldritch blast at the gnoll near the pyramid. The beast crumbles before the arcane onslaught, slamming up against the pyramid before crashing to the ground.Still catching her breath, Dara lifts the doublehanded blade above her head and strikes down on the cultist near her in retaliation. Her berserker rage fuels her attack, and the heavy blade splits the man's head apart, leaving both her and Trevor splattered in gore.Coraine whirls his axe in hand and slashes it down on the gnoll he fights, sinking it deep into the humanoid's chest. The gnoll falls before the paladin's might.The acolyte near the pyramid charges forward, smashing his mace down at Dara. The tribeswoman easily dodges the clumsy attack.The last human guard steps up over his fallen companion, and strikes at Coraine with his blade, cutting a shallow wound on the paladin's upper arm.The underpriest leaps down and charges into the frey, striking at Kurt with his own mace. Again Kurt gets lucky, and the blow bounces off his armor.The glowing stone fist again strikes at Dara, but misses badly.That was a good round for our heroes.<s>21 - Bugbear "b1": battle axe vrs Ragnok 19 (failure)</s><s>20 - Acolyte "d": 5' step, heavy mace vrs Dara "20" (threat), confirm crit "11" (failure), damage 6</s>19 - Trevor: move, longsword vrs "c" 20 (threat), confirm crit 26 (success), damage 19 (15+4 sneak attack)19 - Kurt: longsword vrs "4" 24 (success), damage 1118 - Cleric: jump down, cast spell17 - Ragnok: 3 pt power attack vrs "b1" 18 (success), damage 1917 - Guard "3": move, longsword vrs Kurt "20" (threat), confirm crit 10 (failure), damage 716 - Gnoll "g4": 5' step, battleaxe vrs Ragnok 9 (failure)13 - Acolyte "b": 5' step, casts cure light wounds on Cleric<s>13 - Acolyte "c":</s><s>12 - Guard "4":</s>11 - Guard "6": longsword vrs Kurt 14 (failure)10 - Verdis: move, eldritch blast vrs "g1" 19 (success), damage 1207 - Dara: rage, 2 pt power attack vrs "d" 17 (success), damage 17<s>05 - Gnoll "g1": </s>04 - Coraine: attack vrs "g3" 22 (success), damage 9<s>04 - Gnoll "g3": </s>04 - Acolyte "a": move, heavy mace vrs Dara 9 (failure)02 - Guard "5": 5' step, longsword vrs Coraine 22 (success), damage 402 - Underpriest: move, mace vrs Kurt 15 (failure)02 - Fist: attack vrs Dara 10 (failure)PC StatusDara 22/37 (14/29), rage round 1Verdis 13/22Trevor 21/30Kurt 19/31Coraine 32/36[sblock=Opponent Status - Players Don't Look!]<s>Guard 1 -12</s><s>Guard 2 -14</s>Guard 3    -1<s>Guard 4 -18</s>Guard 5 -3Guard 6 -4Acolyte b -7<s>Acolyte c -21</s><s>Acolyte d -25</s>gnoll 4 -5<s>gnoll 3 -15</s><s>gnoll 2 -12</s><s>bugbear 2 -24</s>Cleric -1Underpriest spiritual weapon r 2 of 4<s>Bugbear 1 -19</s><s>gnoll 1</s>[/sblock]Map reflects positions as of the end of round 2:</blockquote>
