Joshua, suspicious of the inactivity of the enemy spell wielder decides to move toward the back of the building. (F23)

Quickly glancing at the back of the building he can see no sign of activity although a strange prickle on the back of his neck reassures him that Rellek is still on overwatch.

With no other target visible he calmly sends a small ball of fire at the axe wielders - too calmly! He curses as the burst of flame erupts feebly behind the enemy. Close - but no fire damage!

The enemy mage steps out, and after quickly surveying the battle shouts out. "Elloen! Activate the stone!"

Her voice emerges from inside the house. "How do I do that?" She sounds strangely unaffected given the circumstances.

"A drop of blood! Yours, the prisoner's - it doesn't matter, just do it!" He turns to face Todarr's backside and unleashes a torrent of force, pounding him like ocean waves crashing into rocks. Satisfied, he yells to his underlings. "Men, don't let them surround you. Move!"

The axe wielders shift around, trying to avoid being flanked. One swings at Todarr, but the clumsy blow is easily ducked. Moreen is not as lucky - even her armor cannot block the brute force of the swing she receives.

Mardrick, hearing his wife's voice, shouts out at the top of the lungs. "Elloen! Stay inside! We're coming for you!" He tries to conjure up more blue flame but is too overcome by emotion to achieve the required level of focus.

Rellek jumps down from the roof with cat-like grace rarely seen in a dragonborn. Raising his bow he lets two arrows fly - both land at the feet of the axe wielders.

[sblock=Results]
Moreen takes 12 damage.
Todarr takes 8 damage.

Status - Moreen, Todarr, and Karis are next

[sblock=Status]
Karis (25/29) <--- your turn
Elven Archer(22 damage taken, bloodied)
Joshua (19/30)
Axe Wielder 1 (38 damage taken, bloodied, Rellek's Quarry, cursed)
Axe Wielder 2 (37 damage taken, bloodied, challenged by moreen)
Leader (10 damage taken)
Rellek (37/37)
Mardrick (15/16)
Todarr (14/29, bloodied) <--- your turn
Moreen (21/40) <--- your turn
[/sblock]
 

Hearing Elloen's voice, Karis suddenly remembers the small vials of blight-curing goop at her belt. She grins her crazy little grin again and makes a break for it, ducking and dodging past the archer and the startled leader and stepping into the house. If she makes it, she quickly looks around for the warlock's wife, crushes one vial into her fingers and smears the goop on her weapon, and lashes out at the woman.

[sblock]I sincerely hope that in 4e you don't get more than one OA per round, otherwise I think the leader will get three on me and I'll probably be dead. In fact, I'll go so far as to say that if you can make more than one OA per round, I'll not do this at all and do something else instead. I'm willing to take 2 OAs for this move, but not four.
Move: inside the house and get adjacent to Elloen, wherever she is. I think I can get anywhere in the house with 7 squares of movement.
Minor: go go gadget goop
Standard: go easy on the wife: +7 vs AC (reflex?), hits AC 21 for 1 damage.
[/sblock]
 

[sblock=OOC]
In 4e, you can only issue one OA on any opponent's turn, but you can hit multiple opponents (on different turns). So yes in this case you can only get hit twice. [/sblock]
 

[sblock=standard]Snarling at the leader in his peripheral vision, Todarr reels back for a mighty swing. Bastion of Defense: +9 (bloodied) vs AC = 13 + 9 = 22 vs AC dealing 15 + 4 = 19 damage to Axewielder 1

Moreen, Joshua, Rellek and myself all get +1 to all defenses for the rest of the encounter and 8 temporary hit points. Karis has just moved within 5 squares of me, as well, but, being inside the building, is not in line of sight, so I believe she would not be eligible for this, right NT?[/sblock]

[sblock=move]shift to K22[/sblock]

[sblock=minor]Dragon Breath. If A1 is down (hopeful), I will direct Dragon Breath at leader, focusing my rage over his attack towards him fully. If A1 is not down, I will use my new position to direct a cone of fire that will hit both axe wielders, without affecting Moreen. First attack: 10 + 7 = 17 vs Reflex = hit regardless for 4 + 1 = 5 damage. ((second attack, if needed against A2: 18 +7 = 25 vs Reflex, hit for same 5 damage))[/sblock]

[sblock=free]Using my armor's daily power: healing 8 HP without using a surge (back to 22)[/sblock]
 

[sblock=ooc]speaking of OAs, does Moreen get any for the Axe warrior movements? I assume that the leader has a power to let them shift around though[/sblock]
Moreen staggers back a step with the force of the blow. The pain shoots through her body from the wound. She can feel wet blood streaming out underneath her armor. She brings her shield to bear, protecting herself as much as possible. The runes on her armor glow again and the pain immediately fades. She pushes her assailant back with her shield, not to move him, but to create an opening for her blade. She thrusts forward with renewed vigor, feeling the power of Erathis strengthen her arm.
[sblock=actions]free action - using the armor to heal as if Moreen had spent a healing surge
minor action - channel divinity -divine strength
standard action - valiant strike on A2[/sblock]
