[QUOTE="Ravellion, post: 789429, member: 538"] (See in the OOC thread for Tristan's actions) (Disclaimer: The following decription has some creative licence) The Bugbear looks down on his human assailant with contempt. He still stands there in his full plate armour which seems to have survived many battles. Tristan could not find any weak spots on the bugbear, and the bugbear hardly winces as a very slight stream of blood comes from one of the less protected spots in his armour: the elbow joint. As in the far background the Hobgoblin begins chanting, most likely to cast a spell, the bugbear circles around Tristan a bit, finally draws a weapon, which he does with lightning speed, and strikes at Tristan in one fluid motion. The first attack is dodged by Tristan, and he notices it is a battleaxe that the bugbear tries to hit him with - the second swing was harder to dodge, as Tristan's shield was out of place from the first swing, and hits him in the side. The Bugbear did not have his full force behind it however, and the wound is not too grievous. (10 damage) While Tristan had his attention on a creature twice his weight trying to knock the life out of him, the bugbear in the distance took a more tactical position and started casting a spell. Diactum recognizes it as a [i]Hold person[/i] spell, but Wulf is too busy trying to keep a ravenous orc at bay to recognise it. Ilan feels that he is being assaulted by a spell, but his elven mind is hard to sway to such enchantment and he keeps control of his motor functions*... just barely. *Yes, the +2 from being an elf was needed to make that save. Soon to be posted: A map for round 3 with the new tactical situation and the initiative order, as well as hitpoint tally. [/QUOTE]
