Last Stand of the Dorinthians (Chapter 2 - Illusions)

Kel moves back into the chamber with the three doors, his long sword held loosely in his hand, he moves to the door that Alexander had been about to crack open and waits for Rix to do his thing.

Alexander waits patiently for all of them to be positioned near the door.
Waiting, silent breathing while Rix comes besides him.

In a hush, raspy voice he says "Ready to take our chances?" motioning towards the door the shuffling comes from "Or should we lure them here?".
 

As you debate whether or not to enter the other room, the eastern door opens, and you see a humanoid with the head of a hyena poke its head into the room. Upon seeing you he growls something, throws open the door, and moves to attack, followed by two other dog-headed creatures. The first one wields a battle-axe, while its two comrades move to attack with clubs.
 

Rix dodges under the table, hoping to put good cover between himself and the hyena-like creatures and hoping that maybe they'll miss him and focus on the tall folk.

OOC: Basically trying to get cover/concealment to make a hide check, while also putting myself very specifically out of harms way. Hide +11
 


Rix dives under the table as Silas backs away and casts his spell on himself. Alexander nimbly dodges two of the creatures, the one with the battle-axe missing the half-orc and lodging itself into and through the room's table, causing Rix's eyes to widen in surprise. The hyena-headed being rips the axe out of the surface and turns to meet Alexander's counter-attack, but too late...

Alexander drives his scimitar deep into his enemy's chest, causing the humanoid to cough a stream of blood and fall dead.

Lira attacks the second humanoid, just grazing it with her first swing as her second attack goes wild. The third enemy strikes the back of Lira's head with the full force of his club (rolled a crit). Lira goes down, but is barely revived by a spell of healing from Kel. (1 hp left, and prone).

OOC: Question, I need you to update Lira's sheet.
 

Swiftly removing the scimitar from under the hyena-man's ribs and ignoring the one in front of him, turns over to the one who just felled Lira, both stabbing under its ribs and slashing at its shoulder, with intention lo allow at least one of the attacks to come through.

"Capture the other one!"

OOC: Scimitar +4 melee (1d6+5/18-20) and Punching Dagger (1d4+3)
 

Alexander kills the second creature before it moves to strike at him. The third and final hyena-faced creature backs off from the party and moves out of the room and into the balcony. Silas fires a crossbow bolt, but misses it as the bolt soars over the creature's head and past the balcony (take off a crossbow bolt). Kel also misses with the flat of his longsword as the creature runs past his position by the doors to the outside. Rix fires his own weapon, striking it on the shoulder. It snarls, drops its club, and leaps off the balcony to land below.
 

Alexander drops his scimitar and makes haste to the balcony while taking his Longbow on his hands, when he arrives to the balcony, he knocks an arrow and immediately fires it towards the escaping dog in a fluid motion.

OOC: Longbow +4 Ranged (1d8/x3)
 

Alexander drops his weapon, and unslings his bow in a smooth motion as he follows the creature to the balcony. As the hyena-faced creature hits the ground with a grunt, Alexander notches an arrow and lets fly, hitting the enemy in between its shoulder blades. The creature falls to its knees and dies (Take off 1 arrow from Alexander, and 1 bolt from Rix from last time).

Your adrenaline begins to dissipate. But now you have a problem. There are two dead hyena-headed creatures in the room, and one below the balcony. Also, a large gash is visible in the wooden table of the room you are standing in. And you don't know how much longer the fire will distract the goblins.
