[QUOTE="Archon Adept, post: 4727067, member: 82835"] [U]Round 1[/U] Illian is first to react to the presence of the great cat, and he darts to the front of the group, clashing his longsword against his shield, ready for the mountain lion's attack. The animal does not disappoint, as it crouches low to the ground, then bounds forward with surprising speed. The cat leaps at Illian, who stands ready with a quick sword slash that draws blood from the lion's shoulder and elicits a bloodcurdling yowl of rage and pain.
