ooc: just for Kobold stew, as I am aiding you, the HELP action should apply (DM to decide): if so, you have advantage on your next attack roll

With neither of the drakes confronting her, Renestrae has ample opportunity to line up a shot at the beast menacing Erevan. As it moves in to lunge, the creature exposes the softer scales on it's neck and Renestrae's arrow finds it's mark. The beast howls in anger and pain but doesn't fall.

The kobolds with torches have now managed to get the wagon alight, and they all begin dancing around it, shrieking in delight as the flames take hold. They still haven't noticed Miri, or the fight going on in the market square.

Paine takes a quick step back before unleashing a burst of magic at point-blank range. The drake in front of him roars in anger as Paine's attack blasts several shriveled scales from the drake's hide. Orcassm takes full advantage of the situation and cleaves into the creature with his axe, wounding it further. The drake still stands, however.

[Miri up next in initiative]

Miri notices the wagon has been set to fire and decides there is no time to careful thinking! "Someone help me get those people out of the fire, quick!". She uses her second daily slot to cast Sleep at the kobolds, without worrying now whether it might also affect someone under the wagon*, and then boldly advances towards the wagon, firmly grasping her quarterstaff to fend off the kobolds. (She won't blindly walk past them yet tho)

*she actually has the Sculpt Spell ability but it seems to work only on Evocation spells

Sleep: 5D8 = [3, 8, 1, 1, 3] = 16

MIri's spell descends upon the wagon. You can just about see the figure beneath stop moving, and two of the kobolds capering around the wagon also slump to the floor. The remaining three kobolds turn round in surprise, and one of them points at Miri with a yelp.

Suddenly, they charge haphazardly at her, shrieking and howling, with daggers drawn. The first two attacks are swiftly batted aside by her staff but the third kobold finds an opening and managed to drive it's blade into her leg.

[Miri takes 5 damage]

----------

Meanwhile, in the market stalls, the two cultists have drawn their weapons and engaged with Erevan, Orcassm and Paine. The dwarf barks out short, brief commands in an unfamiliar language, and it's clear the drakes have been trained for combat.

Erevan's defensive stance frustrates the drake in front of him, and he easily dodges the beast's clumsy attacks. The dwarf similarly fails to find an opening with his battleaxe and grunts in frustration as his strike sails past Erevan's side.

The other cultist tries to draw an attack out of Orcassm with a feint, and as he does so the drake darts in to strike at the dwarf, but he sees the attack coming from the corner of his eye and drops briefly to one knee, the drake's fanged jaws passing over his head.

[Orcassm - I may have missed it, but I don't think I've got your character sheet? Can you please post it in the OOC thread http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?358097-Tyranny-of-Dragons/page13]

----------

Ulfgar checks out the ruined building, and sees no immediate danger. Very little furniture and contents remain, but the remaining structure seems reasonaby sound and you can see no obvious places that foes may hide. You quickly usher the frightened townsfolk into the building, to keep them safe for the moment.

Rolen, the Elven cleric, seems particularly interested in one of the upper floors.

"What... is that... draconic?" he says quietly, mostly to himself. Following his gaze you see some crude graffiti daubed on a wall. Rolen begins to climb the precarious and charred remnants of the stairs, trying to get a closer look.

With the people safe, you turn your attention to the marketplace.

[OOC: Rolen was a former PC that I'm going to write out of the story, so please don't feel obliged to keep an eye on him!]

Paine sees Orcassam distract the drake, and fires a blast a tty creature's exposed underbelly.

The appearance of the drakes startle Paine, but he turns his attention to the nearest flying beast, shooting forth a painful ray of eldritch fire.

To hit (when he's up in the initiative): [roll0] With help from Orcassam, if this is better use this roll: [roll1]. If a hit damage = [roll2].

(ooc: taking the advantage from Orcassam's help, if that's okay; if not, then just use the first roll please).
