OOC: Everyone except Krug mentioned they were looking for an escape route. Therefore, I will assume Starhl is guarding the rear in the retreat. Online die rollers are not that fun. I am going to have to keep a few dies in my desk at work.
Aislinn gives a small cry as she is whisked off her feet by Herger. The attacking Fell leaps onto Herger's back, its yellowed teeth tearing into Herger's flesh. Almost immediately the tearing stops, as the Fell goes limp and slides from Herger's back with a sickening splat onto the alley's boards. Herger glances back briefly as he ducks into the ruined building to see Jodya standing over the downed Fell, noisome grume dripping from her clenched fist. Go! Starhl and I will cover your retreat! Jodya turns to face the oncoming Fell. Behind her, Fallax scrambles after Herger into the dark building.
OOC: Herger takes 6 points of damage.
Kaela's voice calls forth Aryth's magic subtly, its manifestation rising from the channel in wisps of fog. Quickly the alley is dowsed in a white cloud, curses and cries coming from unknown combatants. Despite the windy night, the fog holds its form in the narrow alleyway, but it wil not be long before the night's wind tears it to shreds, leaving the Heroes exposed. Taking a step back in the general direction of the ruined building, a slouched form materializes out of the fog in front of Kaela. With a hungry moan, it latches onto Kaela, its head planted squarely in her belly as it begins to gnaw its way to her vitals.
OOC: Kaela takes 5 points of damage.
Valurel's claws makes short work of the Fell he had grappled, its head lolling at an odd angle as it slips to the alley floor. Taking a step back, Valurel places his hand against the ruined building. Before he can duck into the opening, another Fell rakes at him with its soiled nails, blood running freely down the Ghost's chest and shoulder.
OOC: Valurel takes 5 points of damage.
Lodric's first blow staggers the Fell, the second crushes its chest. Its spirit released from its foul prison, the Fell staggers back into the fog and a loud splash marks its passing. Sidling back against the ruined building, Lodric is chased by another Fell, a young child with long, ragged wisps of brown hair. Help me father! Help me! So cold! The Fell lunges at Lodric, encircling her arms around him. But Lodric twists free, his eyes wide with horror.
Standing next to Jodya, her form barely visible in the nighted fog, Starhl swings his sword in anticipation. Its blade smashes through brittle ribs as it drops the first Fell, the undead's white eyes wide in surprise. Wrenching the sword out of the carcass, its momentum carries it into another of the hungry undead, crushing skull and popping eyes. Many thanks, Northman!, Jodya's voice rings in the air. Next to Starhl, the Wolf waits for the next wave of Fell, but stays well away from Jodya. In the darkness, mutable forms move at the edge of Starhl's vision and the water continues to splash. More Fell are coming.
OOC: Starhl took out the second Fell, the one attacking Jodya, with Cleave. Thanks for reminding me of that feat.
Blast this fog! Where did it come from?
Bah! I hear steel! Someone with weapons! Good, I was itchn' for a fight tonight!
Wait! There's Fell in there. Let 'em tear 'em up! Then we can swat those bloated carcasses! I like it when they pop!
