From Citadel to Bastion: The Sunless Citadel

"Damn," swears Eshand. "What a waste of a spell. The little buggers are stronger than I thought. That's it kids, I'm out of offensive hocus-pocus." Eshand loads his crossbow and prepares to start firing at the enemy.

"Guess it's my turn for some offensive hocus-pocus then..."

Khaira moves to have a clear line of fire, and sends a Sonic Dart into a hobgoblin.

Florian slides farther over to the right, keeping his back toward the wall, to give the people with bows out a clear view of the new opponents. Once he's out of the way, he sets himself to intercept an attacker going for the casters.

(OOC: Move 5' and ready action to attack a bad guy who threatens himself or Khaira, Quendros, or Eshand. Can we have our hp count, please?)

Khudaglun charges at the closest of the new crop of Goblin warriors, trying to continue his run of axe meets goblin face.

Lucas found himself advancing, stringing out the line to create some tempting, but deadly, gaps in the formation even before he realised what Khaira was suggesting. Guess I underestimated her... He shuddered to realise just how vulnerable they all were if the 'noncombatants' gained heart. Skilled or unskilled, a mob was a mob. He let his feelings go, locking the momentary swell of hatred away under layered ice in a field years distant.

(OOC - Move up forming Khaira's skirmish line based on where F and Ku go, attack whichever enemy strays nearest...)

Quendros continues to do what elves do best and fires more arrows into the enemies.

Between Khaira's dart and Quendros' arrow, one of the hobgoblins is removed from the battle.

The goblins and Khudaglun meet in the center of the room. One goblin scratches the dwarf with a morningstar (1 damage). Khudaglun cuts the goblin in return, but not fatally (3 damage).

Lucas intercepts the remaining hobgoblin before it can flank Khudaglun. They exchange blows, but both fail to hit for damage. Florian steps up next to the paladin and floors the goblinoid with one blow of his greatsword (6 damage).

The hobgoblin chief charges forward, striking at Florian and missing. The female goblin shaman runs up behind her hobgoblin leader, then casts bane. Lucas and Quendros weakened by the spell.

The blue remains standing in the throne room and attempts to attack Florian psionically. The fighter resists the attempt, but just barely.

Khudaglun is at 7/13 hp. Florian is at 3/12 hp. The others are uninjured.

"Shove off", Khudaglun snarls at Lucas, "these Gob's are mine! "

Obviously his lack of battle success (by his own expectations anyway) is fraying his nerves. He howls madly and continues hacking away at the Goblins in front of him, singlemindedly focused on taking down his hated foes.

Khaira tosses two more Sonic Bolts into the blue.

Catulle · Mar 25, 2003

The despair which the shaman's spell caused in Lucas took the fury's drive fom him; his demeanour became even colder and more distant. He pressed forward with a dispassionate expression, intent on his prey but doubting all the while.

(OOC - Attack G in G6. If this works and Ku takes down the one in G7, step into G6 - this may involve delaying, if so that's fine)
