Finishing the surprise round
Oblivious to Liksa, the first beast is struck solidly about the ribs by her first throw, after it releases its bloodcurcling scream at the giant-like Stor. Ears flat against it's head, it turns on her. It's companion shrieks at Kelwan, who, despite his resolve, loses color about the face and trembles slightly, much like Stor.
[End of the surprise round, start of Round 2]
The largest one, wounded by Liksa, turns on the halfling. It leaps upon her, raking her with knife-like fangs threaded with pungent saliva.

Stor lets out a burst of laughter at the creature's horrible visage, "ugly little beast," he says. Drawing his longbow back, he'll launch a yard of wood and steel at the creature that bared itself to him. The shaft flies true, embedding itself it the creature's shoulder, and it drops down in the midst maneuvering around Liksa for another attack.
Working with a well-preserved sense of survival, Liksa's second stone flies true, striking the too-close-for-comfort second creature. The heavy bullet embeds itself with a sickening wet snap in the skull behind the ear, profuse amounts of blood staining the fur and shoulder. With a shudder, the creature falls to the ground, skin and muscles relaxing to cover the face again, now merely a strange member of the feline species. It is not until both felines are motionless on the ground that she feels the pain in her right leg, and wet, hot stickniness on her fingers. After a moment or two she attempts sits down.
Sparrowhawk takes a quick scan of the area, making sure the noise has not attracted any undue attention, keeping an arrow nocked. At least for now, it seems, nothing has chosen to investigate, or to reveal its presence here at the Roost.
Kelwan is taken aback by the disgusting felines, but manages to recover in time to launch his sling bullet at one of the abominations just as it screeches in his direction. As he sees the thing go down to Liksa's amazingly well-placed shot, he saves his bullet, putting down the sling.
It is then that the party hears Liksa scream.
[Liksa, don't do anything right now. Check your email first.]
[OOC NOTE: As a general rule, try to make sure you keep your actions for seperate rounds seperate. I will announce the end of one round and the start of another, so until I do, please do not go ahead to the next round.
