"Get out of there, you fool!," Osric bellowed as he watched the swarm of creatures close in around Penance. He didn't even have time to express surprise about Mirna's sudden appearance from farther back on the trail- he had to move now, to try to save the tiefling. He strides forward and lands a vicious hit on the kobold closest to him, opening up a long cut in its side. (KS1 is bloodied, and Penance shifts 2 squares). His attack provides Penance an opportunity to step back from his predicament.
Valamir moves forward, his oppoents sight blurred by his otherworldly powers. He raises his scarred hand, and flash of jagged white light flashes between him and the kobold. He calls out, "Back creature, fear what I can do!" Despite his bravado, his attack fails to hit his target.
The kobold with the sling loads a new missile and fires it at Osric, but it sails well wide of the dwarf.
Using the opportunity Osric gave him, Penance takes two steps back, calling on the Raven Queen to help him and deatroy the offenders. As he feels his wounds closing (9 healed) a radiant blast of cold light burns his enemies, especially the kobold (critical hit) (FB2 is bloodied). Satisfied, he takes another step back.
The two spear-wielding kobolds move in different directions. The badly-wounded one flees, seeking shelter behind the wagon (Osric would get an AoO, but he doesn’t have threatening reach). The other steps in and stabs at Penance once again (7 damage).
Almost overcome with happiness she jogs forward, approximates the duration to her target and casts the first spell she can think of against her foes. With frosty breath, she utters a single arcane word that creates a treacherous patch of ice on the ground, hampering her foes. I have foes! she does squeal a little bit as she says that, standing up on her tiptoes to survey the effect of her magic. The ice finishes off one beetle and the other two enemies caught in its blast fall to the ground, clearing damaged by the blast. (all three take 10 damage, FB2 dies, triggering Valamir’s curse bonus).
Immeral slides through the trees and underbrush along the side of the road gracefully and stealthily, firing another pair of arrows at one of the kobolds as he goes. His arrows finish the creature off (triggering another curse for Valamir).
The remaining beetle rises from its prone position. Frustrated with its inability to do reach anyone, it spews forth a blast of fire at Osric, catching the dwarf despite an his attempt to dodge the flames (just hit Ref with an 11, deals 9 fire damage).
