[QUOTE="Malvoisin, post: 3191111, member: 40128"] [B]COMBAT ROUND 9[/B] Gulping for air, Keoni steels his resolves and circles around the foul beast, his shield held before him as his spear seeks out an opening. He tries to calm his fear as he treads across the wooden floor, his eyes locked upon the beast that has already dealt terrible damage to his allies. Keoni thrusts tentatively with his spear as he seeks to protect himself, but the tip is turned aside by the beast's chitinous exterior.

Kalen draws his bow and fires an arrow at the large spider. Unfortunately, as Kalen takes care to avoid hitting Keoni, his aim is off and the arrow misses its target.
