Aaman backs up, provoking an attack of opportunity. Luckily for him, the wolf misses yet again.

Sydney sees less danger in throwing a dagger now. He throws one, piercing the furious wolf on his hind. A critical hit.

Raven takes another shot with her bow, but misses again.

Lucian continues to stay put.

Axel waits in the hallway for more room. "What are you guys doing? You need ME up there!"

Morn moves in to the front. The wolf bites bites the monk in the upper leg as he does so. In reaction, Morn takes a kick at the canine with his other leg, landing his foot in its face. [Morn takes 5 points of damage and is lowered to a speed of 25.]

Celpher runs past Axel in front of him (which makes the big guy even madder) to see what is happening.

After breifly studying the wolf, Tanarel senses that the wolf is half afraid, and half furious. It appears that it was put there to guard the area.

End Of First Round
------------------------------
Beginning Of Second Round

The wolf, who is feeling the pain now, retreats back into the room.

"Hoah!" yells a high voice from inside the next room. The goblin that was guarding the previous hall pops out from around the corner and strikes with his sling. The bullet misses Morn and hits the monk's barbarian ally behind him in the chest. Raven feels it hard. [Raven takes 4 points of damage.]

(Shouldnt Morn get an AoO against the slinger? Unless he has cover from the doorway, of course.)

"I loathe the wolf spirits, we need to slay it as quickly as possible," Aaman says. He casts a CmW on Raven at the earliest opportunity.
 


Tanarel Whitehart

Tanarel screams:"Stay Back Axel. You are our rear guard now."

Tanarel now thinks he needs a bow. Though as a former captain of an armyunit he wouldnt like shooting. Nevertheless he decides to get the short bow and quiver with arrows.

OOC: If he can reach it

Geramon

Geramon grabs Axel by his wrists and pull him back to get his full attention: "You are just going to let all the others take charge? YOU are the leader. You are not fit to be a mere rear guard. That kind of unimportant stuff is for the weak... his voice drops and with sadness in his voice he continues "like me". But Geramon voice changes and he says in a determent strong voice "The time to act is now! No one will tell YOU what to do! Now go show them who the real leader is here!"

OOC: Presumable Geramon's pep talk works and Axel storms to the front, this will be his next action


Geramon yells to all in the other room
"Have no fear men! I have the other way covered. You all go ahead and slay that canine. I'll guard the back"

Geramon will then look in the hallway if there are enemies to be found. If not, he will pick up the book containing 'sleep' and will start to investigate it to see if he can learn more about this strange aura.

OOC: Bluff 13(roll) - 1(cha) = 12. Knowledge Arcana 16(roll) + 7(skill) = 23

Lucian

Lucian watches, bemused as various people run one way and the other; he starts to lower his guard when the wolf retreats, but snaps back to attention when the goblin appears.

After a moment's pause, he addresses the goblin. "Tsk. What a heroic sight, the lone defender holding off more than half a dozen attackers, nearly of whom are twice his size. Heroic indeed--but doomed. Even the savage wolf knows when it has been beaten, and retreats to lick its wounds. Come now; you have already enraged my comrades with your attack, but you may yet live if you yield immediately."
 

Morn

[OOC: I didn't expect to move in THAT much! :D]

Morn readies his action, an attack with subdual damage on the Goblin, till the goblin attacks (if the goblin's initiative is before Morn, and he is aggresive assume I'll initiate a grapple as my normal action). I also make sure to keep the doorway as a nice +4 cover bonus to AC for the wolf ;)
 


The wizard fails to bluff Axel with his words. Axel does, however, get angrier, which might lead to what he wants anyways.

Studying the sleep book while the others fight, Geramon so far learns that a sleep spell causes a comatose slumber to come upon one or more creatures. [If he hadn't known that already. Otherwise, he finds out nothing at the time being.]

Raven feels a bit better as she fights with Aaman's spell being cast on her. [Raven gains 1 point.]

Sydney waits for an opportunity to throw.

Raven fires an arrow at the goblin slinger, but hits Morn instead. Morn barely feels the pain as he is knocked to the ground unconcious. [Morn is at -5 HP.] The goblin laughs as the monk falls down.

Finally Axel, full of steam from Geramon and Tanarel, drops his polearm and marches towards the goblin, not taking notice to the dying Morn. "Your leader is here to lead you to victory! You annoying bunch of pansies." But Axel takes a swings with his fist at the goblinoid and misses.

Tanarel grabs the short bow and quivers and attaches the quiver to his side.

End Of Second Round
------------------------------
Beginning Of Third Round

The goblin answers Lucian loudly, "It is for the great cause, the cause for your doom!" The goblin drops his sling and undraws a shortsword hidden behind him. He strikes Axel in the left leg in response. It is a good pierce, disabling Axel's movement for the moment as he falls to the ground in pain, but the big guy still has plenty of strength left in him. "You shall all perish in the mighty fury of Tem!"

Just then, the unexpected happens. The guard wolf jumps onto the goblin from behind and grips his fangs deep into the goblin's neck. The crunching of the bone is heard as the wolf slams the goblin's already dead body against the ground then releases it. The wolf moves cautiously back into the room, not keeping its eyes off of the party as it does.
