Aimhirghin

We could be in trouble here . . . time to get a little tricky!

Aimhirghin focuses his attention on the tough looking Kobold facing off against Tarrk and sends an arcane bolt of malignant will its way. Maybe his inexperience tells, or possibly the chaos of the combat interferes with his focus . . . either way, the attack goes wide. The bard, confident of eventual success, shakes off his failure and tries again, this time striking his chosen target with the arcane energy. The creature glances 'round at the swirling chaos of the battle, perhaps wondering how the shifter - 15 feet away from him and surrounded by foes himself - could have struck him.

Basher7

Pleased with the success of their initial strike on the percieved leader, Basher7 sets his Craghammer into motion against the nearest foe (1d20+6=7) (kd in m18 assuming ks is the dead one). While the attack misses, he lets the momentum of the hammer carry him forward (shift to N18) and attacks (1d20+8=14) another (K at M17).

OOC: WD, which Kobold Dragonshield did you attack?

 

[renau1g]

Khellek will snarl in anger as the pair of kobolds strike him with their tiny weapons. "Selune, wash away my pain and punish these creatures" as he grasps his holy symbol.

A burst of silver light emanates from the shifter, healing his allies and weakening his foes. After the burst, Khellek shifts closer to Basher.

OOC: WD, which Kobold Dragonshield did you attack?

ooc: I saw only one next to Tarrk on the map. He didn't move.
Was a miss anyway

That only leaves Elerosse (Lou) to act this round, hint, hint.

 

[Lou]

Elerosse (Eladrin Wizard)

[sblock=previous actions]

Elerosse stays behind his friends, out of sight, moving back a step. Elerosse mumbles the arcane words he knows so well, causing the sounds of armor scraping on stone to drift towards the advancing kobolds from ahead.

[Leif]

Tarrk has gotten soft from having regular meals served to him by wenches in inns, and swings wide with his mighty maul, missing. Basher7, however, moves somewhat and thoroghly slays the kobold at M17. Khellek intones divine words, and a burst of silver light erupts from the shifter that strengthens all of his allies except Elerosse (man, you're just outisde the range of the spell, too!), and causes horrific moans to erupt from all of the kobolds. Elerosse launches a bolt of force that strikes the kobold in O15 dead. The bolt of force from Aimhirghin's Misdirected Mark strikes the Dragonshield facing Tarrk and inflicts 7 damage.

The Kobold facing Tarrk strikes at him with his short sword, but, it is distracted by Aimhirghin's spell (that it is just sure came from Khellek, for some reason) and and thanks to Khellek's spell wouldn't have done much damage even if it had hit.

Khellek and Aimhirghin are, likewise struck by the spears of two kobolds, but they only take 2hp damage each.

Basher7 is missed.

The kobold in N13 is on his way to pay Elerosse a visit, and he does not look happy. (Not that kobolds ever do! I mean, if you were short, brown and scaly, would you be happy? I didn't think so.)

Next round?

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

[sblock=OOC - Leif]A nicely detailed description, but you didn't say anything at all about Aimhirghin's actions so I'm not sure if you took them into account. In a nutshell, he did 7 points of damage to the Dragonshield facing Tarrk, and caused it to be marked by Khellek - which means that its attack against Tarrk was at -2 to hit. If you took care of it but didn't say it's cool . . .[/sblock]
