His swift attack catches the Master off guard and strikes true, but the man’s armor absorbs most of the blow, leaving only a minor wound across his shoulder.Noting Thomas’ quick departure Jebediah shrugs his shoulders in resignation and urges his horse forward. ”I swear that man still hasn’t forgiven me for charging that Bugbear back in the moathouse, and now he’s hell bent on beating me to the punch every single time.” Spurring his horse forward Jebediah reins the animal in when he get within 30 feet of the battle and locks his eyes upon the Master. The Master’s skin begins to redden as if from a sunburn as Jebediah concentrates his will upon him.Sir Merrick exerts his will against the black magic holding him. Wrath rises within him against this Lareth.Stunned by the blow, Zirat retreats back and prays for help from his god. ”Oh … mighty Kord, give me the power to smite those who oppose me.” He then swings the chain in the air and again smashes it down on the bandit, staggering the man. He curses and pursues Zirat, his sword spinning through a series of routines. He breaks the Champion’s defenses, and plunges his sword deep into Zirat’s side.Deren looks at the man in front of the wagon and moves closer before taking careful aim and throwing his next dagger. The dagger deflects off the man’s armor, though, and clatters to the ground.The other bandit, seeing Zirat fall and the Master besieged, rushes to his lord’s aid. As he nears, he swings his blade at Thomas. Thomas pulls back, and the longsword slices harmlessly through the air.Knowing his companions fight still on the other side of the wagon, Aeron brings his steed around the back. Seeing Zirat bleeding, the cleric prays to Pelor and heals the warrior, even as the bandit tears his bastard sword from Champion’s side in a spray of blood.Ciaran notes Deren moving into position, loads his crossbow, and fires at the lieutenant. The wizard grins as his bolt flies true, piercing the man’s kidney, and sending his falling to the grass with a heavy groan.The Master turns to face Thomas. Speaking evil words under his breath he reaches his hand forward and touches the man, and Thomas screams out in pain as the spell tears jagged wounds into his flesh.OOC:Thomas 25: attack vrs Master 22 (success), damage 4; Wil save 17 (success)Jebediah 19: Matter Agitation vrs Master, damage 1Merrick 17: (held) Save 10 (failure)Zirat 17: Smite evil vrs Lieutenant 24 (success), damage 10Deren 13: attack vrs Master 11 (failure)Lt 13:  attack vrs Zirat 22 (success), damage 15 G2 12: attack vrs Thomas 7 (failure)Aeron 8: cure light wounds on Zirat, heals 7 pointsCiaran 8: attack vrs Lt 21 (success), damage 8Master 8: cast inflict moderate wounds defensively, concentration check 24 (success), touch attack vrs Thomas 18 (success), damage 9PC Condition SummaryZirat: 4/22Merrick: Held, 4 roundsThomas 10/19Opponent Condition Summary – Players no look!!![sblock]G1: -4/12G2: 12/12G3: -5/12G4: -3/12G5: -8/12G6: -5/12Lt: -1/38Master: 32/41[/sblock]MAP:<a href="http://img371.imageshack.us/my.php?image=battle4hv4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img371.imageshack.us/img371/6066/battle4hv4.th.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a> </blockquote>[/QUOTE]
