"Quickly! We have them on the run!" Knowing that he cannot reach any of his opponents (except for the blind one), the cleric elects to wait.
The bandit fighting Shoon drops his bow, yanks his short sword from its scabbard, and attempts to skewer the monk. Shoon is too quick, though, and dodges the attack. The other archers decide to try and turn the monk into a pincushion, releasing their arrows at him. One shot looks to strike, but the monk deflects the missile with his hand at the last moment, sending the arrow clattering to the ground.
Shoon attempts to knock the bandit in front of him unconscious with a powerful blow to the skull. Successful, the man crumples to the floor, unconscious. Shoon turns his attention to the other bandits, and hoping to shake their resolve calls out,
"Will you continue fighting for a leader that has left you to die?"
Merrick again strikes with his glaive, the heavy blade cutting flesh and muscle and putting the blinded bandit down.
Seeing the way mostly clear of foes, Jinx moves further into the chamber, blasting at the bandit lieutenant with a beam of foul necromantic magic. The brigand steps to the side at the last moment, casting a baleful look at the gnome wizard. Then, he steps forward, striking out at Zirat with a powerful, double-handed attack. The flail smashes into the champion, bruising bone and tearing flesh, nearly driving Zirat to his knees.
Seeing Zirat's wound, Aeron quickly reaches out to channel the healing of power of Pelor into his companion.
Deren moves around the nearby pillar, tossing another dagger as he does so. Deren's aim is dead on, and the blade sinks deep into the man's side, perhaps stiking an internal organ.
Ciaran clicks off another bolt toward one of the stairway archers, but to no avail; the shot goes wide.
Seeing the blind brigand fall, Zirat engages the lieutenant and begins to swing his chain.
"Hey Goat face, Let us see what you got!" He chants quietly and brings the wrath of his god upon his enemy. The heavy chain descends upon the bandit, splitting his head like an overripe melon. The man falls instantly, dead before he hits the ground.
