Thanks for the sour persimmons, cousin.

Falandror 59
Mutants 35
Winifred 33
Grimkrag 29
Ottokar 28
Surprise Round
Falandror waits until the rushing mutants reach the line, and he swings his sword at the first one to reach him, the one with the snout, missing. The one with the snout grins, its mouth full of yellowed and rotting teeth, and bears down on the elf, who is able to fend off the attack rather gracefully. The others match up with the rest of you — the one with tentacles with Ottokar, the one with three eyes with Grimkrag, and the one with the horn with Winifred. Grimkrag somehow manages to avoid being hurt, despite his surprise, while Ottokar and Winifred are less lucky — Ottokar takes a club to the head [8 wounds], while Winifred catches a club in the upper portion of her right leg [5 wounds]. Ottokar, slightly woozy but rather angry, slams his warhammer into the body of the tentacled mutant, damn near knocking it clear off its feet.
Conditions
Falandror, uninjured
Grimkrag, uninjured
Ottokar, lightly wounded (4/12 wounds)
Winifred, lightly wounded (6/11 wounds)
Mutant (horn), uninjured
Mutant (tentacles), heavily wounded
Mutant (three eyes), uninjured
Mutant (snout), uninjured
Round 1
Falandror renews his attack, feinting slightly with his dagger, while plunging his rapier at the mutant in front of him. He misses again but manages to put himself in a good position to parry any attacks. As the snout-nosed mutant attempts to bludgeon him, the elf deftly redirects the club with his dagger. Meanwhile, the tentacled mutant goes right back at Ottokar's head with his club, but the Sigmarite manages to deflect it with his warhammer. The other two mutants have no success with Grimkrag or Winifred.
Grimkrag hits the three-eyed mutant with his dagger but fails to do more than scrape its leg, as Winifred, her bow out, steps away from the mutant in front of her, dodging its club, and fires her bow at it, sinking an arrow deep into the creature's left arm. Ottokar, who is hardest beset by the foe in front of him, finds his latest attack redirected by a slight catch-and-tug maneuver by the tentacled movement, in which the abomination wraps its tentacle around the shaft of his warhammer and pulls it away from his body.

Mutant (snout), uninjured[sblock]Insight: Please use Invisible Castle to roll dice; it speeds things up for me immeasurably if I only have to roll for the monsters. Also, for the first round of combat, I assumed a standard attack/parry deal — I know that you get a free parry because you're carrying two weapons, but I assumed the most conservative option possible in lieu of having Falandror do something you wouldn't want him to do.
Wilphe: I had Winifred disengage in order to use her bow. She did avoid the free attack.
Everyone: If you have any comments or questions, please post them in the OOC thread. As far as I know, I've got everything right here, but I'm not perfect, and your feedback will be helpful.
Please post two more rounds for me.[/sblock]
