Message: <blockquote data-quote="IndyPendant" data-source="post: 2602520" data-attributes="member: 8738">Jair is startled to hear a rough voice call down from above.  Risking a glance upward, he sees the Durbuluk chief gazing down at him.  Durnn's tone is oddly...mild, almost sympathetic, and it takes a moment for Jair to realize he's speaking in common! "You waste your breath, Jair Feyfriend.  Our bargain was your prisoners for 'passage through my territory to Belak's hole'.  Our deal is complete.  You have led your tribe to their doom."Below, Jerek attacks the twig blight, but moving on the defensive to keep out of reach of its claws, and his sword doesn't even come close to it.  Kuma readies his sword and shield, bellowing his own challenge right back at the bugbear.  Heirmund carefully hangs down from the vines to drop to the ground nearly ten feet below him, and ends up flat on his back beside Kuma, the breath almost knocked right out of him.  Jair continues to climb down, but his agitation causes him to slip again, and he wastes more precious moments scrambling for footing.((Jerek's attack: 4+0-4=0.  Heirmund's jump check: 6-1=5.  Jair's climb checks: 1-3=-2 and 17-3=14.  Jair is now 30 feet down.))Lehko steps to one side and moves his hands in the arcane almost-dance, causing a wave of force to ripple out and strike the bugbear.  He withstands the spell though, only suffering minor damage in the process.  The bugbear's eyes widen in surprise--then focus on Lehko in hatred.  He moves his morningstar to his left hand, draws a javelin from the half dozen or so strapped to his back, and heaves it unerringly at Lehko, even from forty feet away.  Lehko feels the thing tear into his left side, and then his world dissolves into agony as he collapses, leaking his life's blood all over the filthy ground, and the bugbear calmly takes a step forward.  Terrek lunges towards the nearest foe to him, instinctively flanking Jerek as he attacks the twig blight.  His jaws close satisfyingly, and Jerek's ears are filled with the cracking of broken twigs.((Bugbear's fort save: 14.  Damage taken: 1.  Bugbear's attack: 21.  Crit confirm: 11.  Damage: 5.  Terrek's attack: 14+3+2=19.  Damage: 4+3=7.))</blockquote>
