Invigorated by the bardic inspiration and Dirtan's Prayer, his attack strikes true and drops the foe as intended.Have to him down fast before… Clenching her hands into a tight a fist, Aylor drops her guard and unleashes a furious pattern of blows against the large brute, hoping to live through his brutish counterstrike. Her fists connect, but only one manages to wound the giant, who definitely seems to feel the impact, but in his current state, the pain does not seem to bother him much.With one orc down and many more remaining, the summoned wolf lunges forward sinking its teeth into more orcish flesh and dragging the unfortunate archer on the ground, where they continue to struggle.Exhausted and badly hurt, Selvaggio drops both his club and sickle and moves back a ways while drawing his bow. Knocking an arrow, he takes aim at the large ogre and lets the arrow fly. Despite his wounds, and the many opponents and allies surrounding the ogre, he manages to score a hit against the big one's shoulder, and the arrow sinks deeply into his flesh.Intrepido, seeing his companion badly injured, continues to guard him from any dangers.Dirtan, torn between helping the heavily wounded Selvaggio, and the also badly wounded Aylor, decides to go for the dwarf, considering, that the ogre is still standing and still an immensely dangerous opponent. He quickly steps behind her and as the prayer to Ilmater has left his lips, his hand reaches out to touch the dwarven woman and have most of her wounds be healed.The earth elemental has little choice but slamming against the ogre once more, and again the summoned ally punches him with a stony fist, further weakening the dangerous foe.Seeing the battle isn't yet going as well as hoped, Eldwyn begins reading yet another scroll, while Rover remains at his side.Elmus (Oog) swirls around and aims his deadly blast against the ogre now, but he's too fast and misses his target, despite its size."Three." With a kind of dreadful rhythm Kylest presses his advance and swings again. The mighty blade cuts deeply into the orc's flesh and all he can do is stare at the dwarf before he closes his eyes and drops to the ground, while Kylest hesitates not for one second and immediately steps into the gap to threaten the archers. "Make that four."Seeing how the battle is turning against him, the leader of the orcs shouts a few harsh commands, pointing at Eldwyn and Selvaggio, while he moves around the archers, ignoring the elemental, which tries to take advantage of this moment, but fails to penetrate the black chain armor, and comes within striking distance of Kylest. His large war flail races towards the dwarven warrior and slams into his chest, wounding him badly. It's the first time, that the half-orc seems to smile grimly.The ogre sweeps his club down from the right side, smashing right through the elemental, which promptly disappears, and into Aylor, who sidesteps the huge club, instinctively relying on her martial training against larger foes. The ogre doesn't look amused.From behind the pillar, Aylor then sees a bolt of fire racing towards her, but instead of her it strikes the stone pillar and burns a small hole into it. The orc behind it begins to curse loudly, at least that's what she figures, not being able to understand his language.The orcish archers step away from the raging combat, raising their bows to fire an arrow each against Eldwyn and Selvaggio. The halfling's luck is enough to protect him, as the projectile ricochets off the pillar he is standing behind, while Selvaggio has less luck and gets hit, but the wound isn't deep, fortunately, and the human still manages to remain standing. Intrepido growls and snarls, but stays close to his master. The third archer stands up, and through some lucky coincidence manages to duck under Kylests sword while keeping the attacking wolf at bay with his bow, and quickly takes a few steps away and into safety, for now.Status:Aylor - lightly wounded, inspired, Prayer, Mage Armor, Protection from EvilEldwyn - unscathed, inspired, PrayerRover - unscathed, inspired, PrayerKordunn - moderately wounded, inspired, Prayer, Mage ArmorKylest - severely wounded, fatigued, inspired, PrayerOog/Elmus - lightly wounded, inspired, PrayerSelvaggio - critically wounded, exhausted, inspired, PrayerIntrepido - scratched, inspired, PrayerDirtan - moderately wounded, inspired, PrayerWolf II - unscathed, summonedWolf I - dismissed, summonedMedium Earth Elemental - dismissed, summonedMace - moderately woundedGruul - critically wounded, exhausted, RageOrc Elite Warrior I, II - dyingOrc Shaman I - unscathedOrc Shaman II - dyingOrc Archer II - lightly woundedOrc Archer III - moderately woundedOrc Archer I - severely wounded, fatiguedOrc V, X - dyingOrc I, II, III, IV, VI, VII, VIII, IX, XI, XII - dying[smallcaps]<a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=3221370#post3221370" target="_blank">Combat Declarations</a>[/smallcaps]</blockquote>
