The clouds above begin to release rain, slowly at first. The waves of water get faster very quickly, and within a few seconds the entire sky is pouring rain. Lightning strikes in the distant forest. A second later thunder pounds the keep with sound. A thunderstorm has suddenly swept into the Witchwood with amazing urgency.Woodsman Jorr cowers the back corner of the room. He sees the massive skeletal hands trying to claw at Warren inside the building. "What's going on! What is that thing!"Siobhan: Siobhan steps up beside Warren and takes on the skeleton with her warhammer. The blow lands, dealing 8 points of damage.Tyrla: (I'm assuming that you're choice of action probably involves firing another blast at the skeleton, but feel free to point out to me if that's not correct). Tyrla fires her blast again (nat 3 rolled, still a hit) hitting the skeleton in the entryway for 13 points of damage. Please point out to me if you wanted to alter your position or take a different action.Warren: Warren's attack combination lands, (dice were doubly on you're side on damage this time) dealing 19 points of damage between all types. Warren then tumbles away from the creature.Suddenly: A voice calls out from the tower above. This voice is clearly human, masculine, and pronounced. "You want those precious trinkets? You'll have kill me first! This is my forest! This is my castle!"Three arrows fly from the top of the tower. One makes its mark in the more heavily wounded giant skeleton. The arrow explodes with unnatural force and the damage is severe (21 after DR for the first arrow). Combined with the injuries caused by Scarlet and Garguannin, the skeleton is destroyed. The bones drop to the ground, rendered inert. The second arrow strikes the other skeleton in the middle of the courtyard with a similar burst of force (20 after DR). The third arrow fails to pierce the strong winds and torrent of rain that has suddenly overtaken the keep.Since Avril is in the courtyard, she can look up to see the figure firing from the tower. It's a fairly lean light haired man, though his appearance is clouded by the darkness of the hour. He looks quite handsome, and he boldly stands on the very tip of the tower's edge where he has his bow still drawn and pointed at the monsters below.<img src="http://www.enworld.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=31497&stc=1" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[sblock=Avril_spot_check]Even distracted by the sudden entrance of the figure in the tower, you spot (27) movement coming from the entry to the south of you. Another pile of bones, another giant skeleton! It's just starting to move, but if it stands up this round it threatens to put you in a bad position cutting you off from your allies.[/sblock]The rain will quickly turn the courtyard to mud, probably within 2 rounds, and the current wind and thunder make listen checks and ranged attacks more difficult.<img src="http://www.enworld.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=31498&stc=1" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />*The southern skeleton is marked in red to represent that it's currently flatfooted. Realistically, only Avril is aware that this one is animated so-far.**Also AV is the new figure, though I failed to mark him properly as being on the "top" of the keep.</blockquote>
