Hagadark looks up as the faint silver nocturnal light is obliterated by the ominous shadow of a flying beast. Seconds later, the thundering sounds of its landing are heard, as screams of agony rise from the battlefields. The old dwarven war cry is heard there, as well as ahead, where the marks fight against the fading creatures. A few more steps, and yet another shadow is cast. This one, though, lingers, surrounding the area both orcs and marks occupy. The beast preys, and has its eyes set on them, apparently…MORGRYM/MARIUS[Yup, I did consider bodyguard! But a 20’s a 20, heheh!]With quick moves, Marius breaks the small creature. As she falls, spitting blood in place of a cry, the second wave arrives, leaping forward, thirsting for blood! Two of them charge against the monk, showing great proficiency. Both of them move in unison, feinting and charging unexpectedly. The monk dodges the first one, stepping aside as it tries to pierce it’s stomach, but the second one profits from the movement and opens a cut on his hip![Talk about 20’s! 2 points of damage; roll fortitude against DC 13; if you fail, you’ll take a point of dex damage, and we’ll roll later for the next rounds; success eliminates the effects. The poison works like the Poison Weapon spell, in case you guys are curious.]Furious, the creature Morgrym attacked responds, howling incomprehensible curses at him. Two more follow the first one, trying their best to stab the dwarf! One of the strikes slides against the hide, while Morgrym pushes the second one aside with his shield. His vindictive enemy, though, manages to scratch his face, a thin line of blood coming down from his cheek as he furiously fights.[1 point of damage; roll fortitude against 13 as well to avoid 4 points of dex damage! Again, I’m considering Bodyguard bonuses!]The attacks are renewed against Arvana, despite her efforts to retreat. The group will be surrounded soon. Four charge against them. As Marius attempts to protect his companions, he manages to elude two of the enemies, all the while Arvana shoots against them to no avail and tries to dodge their blows. The poison has weakened her quite a lot, both Morgrym and Marius can see it. Two enemies charge against her, slicing her face and chest with their daggers. Dizzied and confused she, steps back once more, looking over her shoulder to the elevation. “I need space!” – she cries, preparing another arrow. As the enemy tides pressure on, the trio grows cold as a shadow looms over their heads, like a vulture searching for prey…[Ok, I’m updating the map, so we can have a clearer vision of the battle, now! It’s oly a representation so far, since I still need you guys to position yourselves as you prefer. Notice that I have counted Arvana’s retreat already, and accounted for a few dead enemies.]MAP UPDATED<a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZBfqlZpct8SZ7vh_U_nqispO67s2ZXLunqhdY4dnNwI/edit#gid=572290431" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZBfqlZpct8SZ7vh_U_nqispO67s2ZXLunqhdY4dnNwI/edit#gid=572290431</a> [MENTION=24380]Neurotic[/MENTION] [MENTION=6801311]KahlessNestor[/MENTION] [MENTION=87106]MetaVoid[/MENTION]</blockquote>
