[QUOTE="Paragon Badger, post: 456000, member: 6334"] [b]Combat Round 1[/b] [COLOR=burlywood]You run around the corner and are shocked by what you witness. The four guards, Lord Swifthammer, and Captain Bal fight a losing battle. They stand aligned against four frightening foes. The figures have four clawed arms and a chitin exoskeleton. A vile green substance drips from a cruelly fanged mouth. No eyes are seen on the alien face but an air of menace extrudes from the figures. Two of the insectoids have bone spikes extending from their arms and are in melee with the dwarves. Another two stand at a cave entrance with two vaguely crossbow shaped items. Several corpses of miners, half devoured, lie about the cave. One of the guards is critically wounded, another appears unnaturally pale as if about to faint. Upon your party's arrival Lord Swifthammer shouts, "I just saw the fiends go down that tunnel with my Fali and Dovena. They appeared to be lead by a strange rainbow hued beast!" Using Lord Swifthammer’s distraction to its advantage the insectoid bite him deeply on his shoulder. It follows by thrusting at a guard with a set of arms. The wounded guard catches blows directed at him on his shield. Captain Bal does a quick dodge to avoid the beasts bite and manages to parry a claw attack.
