"Wounds heal hellbeast. Death does not!" Tyler says trying to bluff past the pain. He slashes again at the monster.
The creature tries to defend itself, but it is simply no match for Tylers' fury. You step inside the things defenses and, one vicious stab to the midsection later, it falls to the ground bleeding heavily.
"Damn it, they've got prisoners!", shouts Uri, as he looses a shot at the creature with the axe. He then runs over to Wooden's side to set up another shot on the creature leaving the stall.
(OOC- Longbow +5 1d8+1 x3/Prc {within 60'} on one of them in the stall, not #2, hopefully the one with the axe)
You let fly with an arrow, but Firing at the moving creature proves to be a bit more difficult than expected, especially with the stables in the way. The arrow grazes the back of one leg but does no significant daamge.
Having Tyler die would probably make this mission harder and that wouldn't be good. Not to mention the fact that if Tyler dies, he and the rest of the group would probably be next to go is definately not a good thing.
Aleran gets his crossbow and prepares to shoot at the second creature coming from the stables.
As the thing steps out from behind the stable walls, you let fly with a crossbow bolt. It streaks through the air and buries itself into the wood of the stable wall, inches from the things' chest.
Swipe sneaks up and plants his shortsword deep into the back of the creature that hit Tyler (+2 to hit, 1d4+1+1d6 sneak attack dmg). He'll position himself so he's flanking the beast with Tyler.
Suddenly deprived of your target, you turn to face the oncoming foe.
Frustrated but still quite able to act, Gerard figures the idiot man can be berated after they get themselves after this mess. His spear-like lance jabs forwards at the creature.

The beast from the stables approaches the three men cautiously, having seen its' companion felled. It tosses a spear at Gerard but he is able to bat it away. The creature calmly draws a huge axe.
The creature still in the stables smiles an evil grin at Aleran and tosses a spear at Aleran, which draws a line of blood from his upper arm. Then it, too, draws a nasty looking axe.

Tyler
Spinning to intercept the next attacker, Tyler says nothing. his cool stare taking in the measure of his enemy. He slashes at the enemy.

The 2nd creature moves towards Tyler Gerard and Swipe cautiously. Then, seeing Woden, Skaris and Aleran coming it's way as well, it takes a step back and bangs on the side of the nearby building. "More man-things, more Brothers" it says with an wicked grin.
Tyler, Gerard and Swipe, the creature is not close enough for you you strike at with melee weapons...
Uri moves back to his previous position at the stable doors ,and fires another shot at one of the creatures.
It would seem prudent to fire on the creature advancing on you with a very large axe. However, it is too close to make an effective attack and the shot misses.
Woden, the creature is not close enough to attack with a melee weapon.
Skaris, still seeming out-of sorts, approaches the creature warily.
Aleran, you have a decent shot at the creature that was moving towards Tyler. Your crossbow bolt streaks through the air embeds itself into the wood beside its' head.
OOC: But wait, there's more...
Sorry for the delay in the posting, I just went back to work after having some time off and it was a little hectic getting back up to speed. Should be okay now. For anyone whos interested, see the OOC about the combat tool i'm using...

This is not my day, Uri thinks to himself, cursing his indecision and lack of wherewithall on the battleground. "One more coming!", yells Uri as he fires his bow and backs away from the barn door.
(OOC- fire another shot at the one in the barn, and then backs up between Wooden and Aleran. BTW, did I hit the last time?)
