While he doesn't take the man down, the knife sinks deeply into his shoulder, and the blood drenches down the front of his once pristine bronze armor.Shoon holds on to the axe with one hand while he readies to strike the enemy with the other should he attempt to attack, flee, or call for help.Ciaran rolls his eyes at the nervous gnome. "Bah, you need more time? Here. Zbrawkx." With the speaking of the fell word, filaments streamed from Ciaran's mouth to fill the hallway behind them. He then rushed into the room with Jinx.Sir Merrick slashes the guard again, attempting to drop him before he can flee or call out. The knight's glaive is turned aside by the man's armor.The first of the guards regains his composure, grabbing his own battleaxe and leaping atop the table. His overhand swing cleaves into Merrick's shoulder, tearing flesh and muscle.The unarmed guard near Shoon, Zirat and Aeron gives the monk an evil look and draws a dagger from his belt. Shoon manages to strike the guard first, but the monl's fist proves less than useful against his armored foe. "Die, bastard!" shouts the guard, slashing a gash across Shoon's arm with his dagger.Jinx hustles everyone into the room, worried about the loud clanging of arms and armor, but finds there is really not much room to move into the chamber; at least, not without exposing himself to an enemy's weapon. I allowed this to work, since Deren hadn't moved yet."Ware intruders!" cries the other guard at the table, wounded from Deren's daggers, as he moves around the edge of the table to engage Merrick. The knight ducks beneath the guard's powerful axe stroke, unharmed by the deadly blade.Aeron, seeing that his direct foe is now wounded, unarmed, and the subject of Shoon's attempt to keep someone alive, starts to move by the unarmed man toward the armed foes. Seeing the dagger appear in the man's hand, Aeron decides to stay put, and swings his morningstar again. The cleric's weapon bounces of the man's breastplate, leaving a ding in the bronze. If you still want to move past him, I'll update this, but it would draw the AoO.[/size[The last (visible) guard Steps out of the annex tot he north, swinging his own battleaxe at Merrick. The weapons cuts across the knight's chest, spraying blood. Merrick, besieged by the three skilled warriors, staggers, dizzy from blood loss, barely able to maintain his footing.Cursing his luck, Zirat tries to move into a flanking position and strike one of the guards. His chain whistles through the air, slamming one of guards threatening Merrick a solid blow!You can hear cries of alarm sounding from somewhere down the southern passage.Grey area indicates Ciaran's web, good for 30 minutes!Initiative Count19 Deren - attack vrs G2 17 (success), damage 1017 Shoon - ready action: attack17 Ciaran - cast web, move13 Merrick - attack vrs G1 13 (failure)13 Guard 3 - jump check 14 (success), attack vrs Merrick 19 (success), damage 813 Shoon - attack vrs G4 14 (failure)13 Guard 4 - attack vrs Shoon 22 (success), damage 512 Jinx - moves12 Guard 2 - 5' step, attack vrs Merrick 10 (failure)07 Aeron - attack vrs G4 12 (failure)04 Guard 1 - attack vrs Merrick 17 (success), damage 902 Zirat - attack vrs G1 24 (success), damage 10PC StatusMerrick    0/22; DISABLEDShoon    11/18Zirat    27/31Jinx    15/15; mage armor (approx 55 mins left) for AC17[sblock=Opponent Status - Players Do Not Look]Guard 1    12/38Guard 2    6/27Guard 3 27/27Guard 4 19/27[/sblock]</blockquote>
