[QUOTE="Dirigible, post: 2126812, member: 12631"] [b]Karita[/b] She heard the arrows comming, and it triggered an old memory of scrambling through brush; darting behind trees; wet mud underfoot; angry hunter-men close on her heels; the snicker of fletched death close by; missiles raining through leaves. It made her neck bunch up instinctively, and she lowered herself to the deck with a plaintive whine, minimizing her size as a target. The beastwoman’s eyes flicked constantly, nervously as she human raiders board the ship. When the battle became a melee, she started to shift her body too and fro, trying to get free of the chains as orcs lumber through the mist, vardatches sweeping clumsily at their foes, and humans try to mob the larger warriors and bring them down with numbers and ruthless skill. Earlier attempts to squeeze or shew her way free from the chain had proved to karita the fruitlessness of such activity; but the swelling battle makes her desperate to escape. Then Lokksul drew close. The wounded, recruit-fresh orc tried to get behind Karita, but the heady brew of fear and aggression bubbling in her veins disinclined her from trying to gauge his intentions. Instead, she lunged repeatedly at the orc with snapping teeth and blows from her callused hands. [color=slategray][indent][b]OOC:[/b] Initiative [b]9[/b]. I assume that being chained up carries similar penalties to being entangled; -2 to attacks, -4 Dex. If Lokksul comes within range, Karita makes a full-round defensive attack, raising her AC to 15 (back down to 13 with entanglement); she’s hoping to warn him off rather than take him down. Attack results: Claw 15 (4 sub), Claw -6 (no chance :P), Bite 1 (nada). If not, untrained Escape Artist check: result 22. [/indent][/color] [/QUOTE]
