Combat, round 6
Despite facing the foul likes of a troll, your company rallies with the defeat of the beast's furry pet, and you boldly meet the new threat.
Jinx continues to cling to the roof, not sure how to help his companions. He had already expended most of his spell power for the day, and didn't have a clear shot at the troll with his remaining offensive option. Not knowing what to do, the wizard pulls a dagger from his belt and tosses it at the troll, but the blade bounces off the rubbery-hide.

Ciaran lets out a chuckle as the spell takes hold, letting out a whole bloodthirsty yelp as the owlbear falls. From his position, he grins as he reloads his crossbow and fires. The bolt plunks into the meaty flesh of the giant's thigh, but if the wound pains it, the troll doesn't show it.
Deren throws another dagger, but is disappointed as it misses its target.
Seeing the arcane caster's spells effect the troll and the owlbear's death, Aeron's confidence in the group's chances soars. "No quarter, friends," the cleric says as he prays for Shoon.
Shoon let's out a sigh of relief and the massive monstrousity collapses to the ground. He pays for letting down his guard when he fails to notice the new foe attacking him until the last second and is unable to dodge in time to avoid the attack completely. He let's out a grunt of pain as he is again injured, and decides to stand back a bit to decide what to do next. As Aeron's healing magic courses through him he decides, and moves forward to engage the new foe. His nunchaku whirl through the air, striking the foe cleanly, but don't seem to hurt it much at all.
"Hurray, pray the battle god." Zirat cheers as he brings down the feathered horror.
"Now you will follow the same fate as your pet!! Merrick, flank the creature" Zirat circles the troll and lashes at the creature with his spiked chain. The weapon strikes hard, tearing a jagged gash down the beast's chest.
"Have at thee beast!" Sir Merrick slashes across the thighs of the gangly green skinned giant with his glaive, the blood in his ears pounding to match his fury as he fights the dark minion, maneuvering to the side to start setting up a flanking position with Zirat. Although flanking the foe, his strike fails to cut through the beast's thick, warty skin.
As you watch, some of the troll's minor wounds begin to close before your eyes. Smiling with fanged teeth, the giant attacks; apparently not liking having foes both in front and back, the creature moves back toward Merrick, and assaults the knight with its full arsenal of tooth and claw! Although weakened, the powerful creature strikes Merrick with both of its sharply taloned hands, and then rends the poor knight, splattering blood about as it tears massive furrows into his flesh!
