[QUOTE="maddmic, post: 3802910, member: 9989"] Herger watches as the old man tumbles away under the strength of his forceful attack. He knew Ibor would be there to defend the old man and perhaps posed the greater threat, but the giants disdain for the weaver of magic won over. It was then that he felt the pain in his back. That would've gained attention of most, but Herger had one thought on his mind. Then the old man began to beg. The giant hesitated for one split second and then realized his mistake. With a wave of his feeble hand, Herger felt the as he had that fateful day. The day in which he failed his promise to protect the girl. That same day in which he let his friends down. As his limbs became like lead and the coldness started to set in, it was almost as if time itself was slowing down. He mind raced as he began to panic. Then he remembered his dream. The hopelessness he felt as he watched the girl being taken. The sorrow he felt for letting his companions down. So long ago was that dream, yet the feeling was just as strong. That was in Baden's Bluff though. That was not here. He fought off the desire to give in to the old mans wicked ways. His mind began to focus on the task at hand. His eyes looked up from the ground that they had began staring at absentmindedly. He stared at Fallax with a hardened gaze. [COLOR=SlateGray] OOC: Will save: 1d20+4 = 24! [url]http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1291606[/url] Finally![/COLOR] With great resolve, he felt the weight attacking his mind and body break fade away. Still gazing at the old man, a smile crept across his face in that split second as things began to return to their normal pace. With a determined and yet sinister smile, he furrowed his brow, stared right into Fallaxs eyes and confidently spoke. [COLOR=Orange]"Not today old man. You will never have mercy from me."[/COLOR] With that he brought his axe around again to crash into the kneeling and fading man. [COLOR=SlateGray]OOC: I'm guessing that he's really not been knocked back? Assuming that Fallax is still within range, Herger swings again!

Power Attack Greataxe +10 (3d6 + 13, x3) (+5 BAB, +5 St, +1 WF, +1 Dorn melee 2handed, -2 power attack, +2 dmg (weapon specialization), +7 damage (strength, x1.5 for 2-handed weapon), +4 damage (+2 from power attack x2 for 2-handed weapon))[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
