[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 9356854, member: 59816"] The giant bellowed as part of his face was burned by the Colonel's searing light. This was followed up by an arrow from Donnell, that very accurately stuck in a joint in his armor. It lost most of its momentum, and didn't bite deep, but it was uncomfortable nonetheless. Then, Doc shook off his demons and moved to the edge of the roof while firing his guns. His bullets screamed as they pierced the giant's breastplate, and a ghost whipped out, clawing spectral claws at the young dire-wolf. The wolf tugged at her chain, and the giant lost his grip. She ran from the ghost, dashing across the courtyard. Kahru drew Waythe, who hollered, "It's about time!", as the northman and the armored giant traded blows. Standing knee-to-toe with a giant took great courage, and Kahru was up to the task, but the giant's superior reach, towering height, and immense weight gave him a clear advantage; the northman was driven back against the giant's powerful blows. Across the yard, one of the two young ogres made his way through the kitchen doors. This act was followed by a bunch of garbled yelling in the Giant tongue, which sounded more like an argument than it did like an organized response. The other young ogre was lifted off the ground and dropped on his head by Gimlak's psychokinetic assault. Rather than attempting to climb to the roof once more, the young ogre pulled himself to his feet and ran to catch up to his brother. Gimlak had floated over the roof's thatched peak, and was out of sight, so the Ogress picked another target for her second javelin. She saw the Colonel standing over the outbuilding's door, and she flung her javelin high. It headed true for the Colonel, but he brought up his shield in time to deflect it, and it clattered to the ground in front of the door. The ogress tried to drive her dire wolf onto Kahru's back, but the wolf refused to lunge or bite. [ooc]Colonel did 11 (dc18 DEX); Donnell did 6; Doc did 37 to AHG & 6 to DW2; Kahru missed, but Waythe is happy! Giant did 18 & 20 (19) to Kahru; Gimlak did 5 psychic & 4 falling to YOg2.
