[QUOTE="Manzanita, post: 1572920, member: 10109"] [b]Gnoll Smackdown![/b] [I]Looks like Brioc needs to be NPCed for awhile. I'd rather not do this, given his leadership status. Perhaps someone else would volunteer...[/I] Round 6 (con't) Marcus feints, then steps back, withdrawing and husseling back to the stairs. Dhormium descends to the bottom, and readies himself to heal Octar. His waraxe hacks one last time at the dwarf's enemies. The glowing axe imbeds itself into the gnoll leader's skull, then fades out, having done well for its god. Brioc's wolf, unable to understand the words flying around, continues to attack his master's foes. He tries, but fails to get his fangs into a gnoll through their sheilds. Round 7 Ehldanis begins incantations once more, with his lantern and gaze pointing WSW. Behind him, his wolf seems stunned, and does not attack. Atop the stairs, Tullius now stands alone, with only one gnoll opposing him, and this one already wounded by Brioc's scimitar. Tullius leaps at him. The gnoll attemps to block the axe, and the soldier's sword penetrates his heart. Octar smacks a morningstar aside with his shield, and turns to dash back towards the stairs. He turns as he reaches Dhormium, and is comforted by the divine touch of the dwarf (heals 15 points) On the Eastern front, the black-robed gnoll steps back behind his halbert wielding comrade and begins moving his hands in an intricate pattern, as his companion swings his halbert at the wolf. The wolf has now recovered its senses and dodges aside. Suddenly, a mauve dart flashes through the darkness from the black-robed gnoll towards Tullius. It misses the wily soldier and lands, hissing, at his feet. From the rear of the Western Gnolls flies another arrow. The archer is barely visible, as it hugs the wall and seems to be wearing black. This arrow flies at Marcus, but deflects off his mail shirt. The other two rear gnolls slash at Brioc's wolf, who largely seems to avoid the blows. The rest of the gnolls continue their attack. One reaches Mendicus, and strikes him with its morningstar. Mendicus slashes back with is sword, but seems to be getting the worst of the exchange. Two attack brioc, who dodges and uses his sheild effectively to evade harm. Another charges at Octar, exposing himself to Brioc's scimitar, although the druid is unable to capitalize. Others strike at Octar and the earth elemental ineffectively. Brioc slashes at his tormentors, but his blade deflects off their armor. Likewise, his elemental's attacks come to naught. Marcus can still act in Round 7. [/QUOTE]
