Sarlis grabs his mace and tries to position himself in flanking position relative with warrior. Using his shield as best as he can to protect himself from the vermin vicious attack.

"Calenthangs, let's get it over with quickly" He yells as he assault the creature.

Seeing everybody wishing to catch the creatures from behind, Calenthang plays along to aid the cleric in his scheme. If it had been spiders, the warrior would have fought to be the first to draw blood; because it was not, he has no problem sharing.
 

Drogo releases a stone from his sling as the centipede's appear. There's no use negotiating with mindless hungry vermin. Once the battle is engaged, he'll ready his scimitar and sheild, then he and Rex will head into the fray.

OOC: Sling +8 1d3
Scimitar: +6 1d4+2 AC 19
Rex: AC 19 bite: +4 1d6+4
 

As the multi-legged creatures rushed into their line of sight, Ayden's breath caught for a moment. While these creatures were not the strangest his companions had faced in their short time together, Ayden had not become so jaded already that the sight of an enlarged insect no longer gave him pause.

As he brought his shield around with his free hand, Ayden called out to his companions.

"Focus your attacks on the same bug. It is better to have one fallen foe than three enraged wounded ones."

Watching as the group fanned out as best they could in the cramped confines of the hallways, Ayden waited until a position opened that he could fill and brought the enchanted hammer down hoping to land a solid blow on the creature.
 

OoC: Sorry for the delay guys, it's been a hectic week at school. Midterms are coming it seems, blah. I've found a small pocket of time to post so we can get things moving again hopefully. To make up for it, I've put into place a new damage summary table outside of the combat narrative. Having damage in the middle of the action might be confusing for some people or disruptive to the flow of the read, so I've spoiler blocked all combat mechanics. Let me know if you guys like the change or prefer it the old way. ;) I've been in touch with Verbatim and things should be clearing up for him soon as well as the weekend nears, so things should be getting back to normal again real soon.

Dunstand's dagger plants itself deeply in the segment of the closest crawler. It clicks furiously as it changes its direction, heading straight for him. It's pursuit is cut off though by a deadly strike from Calenthang, slicing the large insect in half! Drogo's pelts the carrion crawler behind the recently slain one with with a sling bullet, doing minimal damage.

Sielwoodan draws back his bow twice in rapid succession, launching two arrows at the two remaining creatures, but unfortunately, both shots miss. Ayden finds an opening to bring his hammer down on the nearest carrion crawler, smashing a section of its body with his hammer. Luck is with Teleri's aim as she manages to skewer part of the creature to the ground with her arrow.

Diverting his attack to the next incoming crawler after the previous one's death, Sarlis bashes at it with his mace as he tries to cut it off with Calenthang at his side. The crawler whips its tentacles in Sarlis' direction, but misses. The second one, nearly dead, tries to bite at Teleri's ankles, but also misses. Broddy manages a shot with his crossbow at the carrion crawler attacking Teleri and wings it slightly.

Dunstand grins, as he sees how Calenthang cleaves the centipede in-half. Not wasting time the rogue quickly draws his second dagger and throws it at the crawler that vainly tried to attack Sarlis with his tentacles.

Ooc: Sarlis was flanking Sielwoodan, if the crawler is attacks Sarlis than that would mean that I’m sill in a flanking position. (+9 Throw into melee , Dagger, 1d4+2, Sneak Attack +2d6)
 

Drogo drops his stows his sling, and readies his sheild and scimitar. Then he and Rex head around for the attack.
