[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 8773231, member: 59816"] As Jack loosed a quarrel that struck the bugbear captain hard in the chest, Quinn caused a wall of flames to burst across the room running its way down the left-hand column of bugbear soldiers. Bugbear fur was dense and oily, and it burned with a terrible odour. Their discipline was tenuous at the best of times, and the ordered line fell apart immediately as bugbears ran for cover and/or patted at their flaming fur. Jack hopped down the stairs and moved northward as Bible first threw an axe, and then ran her sword through the body of the captain, as Tenibor signalled the captain's demise with an ominous note of doom. The captain fell at the base of the stairs, still enough in the fire for the corpse to continue to burn. The bugbears were entirely disorganized, but they instinctively moved for cover. The two original guards called out to each other. The one caught in the firewall managed to slip to the south, and after putting himself out, he headed for the eastern gong, taking no notice of Eoghan the orc nearby. The other threw a javelin at Bible, which bounced off her shield as one of the other bugbears escaped the flames by shoving his way past her on the stairs. Jack peered into the room to the north, which was dimly lit by a hanging brazier, much like the rest of the place. In the room, behind a desk, sat the ugliest giant that Jack had ever seen. One eye was scarred shut and he had an enormous hunchback. As Jack watched, the giant rose to his feet and grabbed a large, double-bladed axe that was leaning against the wall. From under his desk scampered two ugly and fiendish-looking apes. Then Jack was momentarily distracted from observing the room when a bugbear found itself next to him after fleeing from the heat of the wall. [ooc]Quinn did 23 to BBCpt, BB3,5,&7, & 11 to BBG2.
