Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cabe Zeree" data-source="post: 2134128" data-attributes="member: 20453">To horse! Ride!Rexx twirls his daggers in his hand and sizes up his opponent, asking, "What ya want to lose first, berk?  A nose?  A finger?  What's about an ear or an eye?  I always let the thirteenth man I kill in a day chose which bit I carve off of 'im first..."  The tiefling smiles wickedly, showing just a bit more of his pointed teeth than usual..."Big talk, what can you do when a cutter's back isn't towards ya?" He snarls and his mace cuvees in an arc towards Rexx's chest.(I take this as Rexx taunting the merc. He's being defensive, holding his attack, and waiting for a better opening.) Zee watches as death descends from the sky and an arrow blossoms from the back of a spindly merc (she actually looks githyanki). Too engaged with the ash bat, she didn't have time to defend against the Lornhall archers. More prepared, Cedric rolls out of the way as another arrow plants itself near his feet. Now close to the fire, the merc captain tosses something into the flames and runs like a baatezu army was on his heels. (Three)Noi'nu growls and draws his blade back, hammering down upon the merc's axe, hoping to sunder it beneath his powerful blow and take the slaver out as well...Noi'nu's blade comes down, the merc's axe haft parts with the blow, and Noi'nu's blade continues on. His opponent's eyes go wide and a gurgle escapes his throat, a diagonal gash runs from the merc's right shoulder to just blow his left ribcage. Noi'nu frees Mutan as the merc topples to the side, and as he takes in the melee, Noi'nu feels the fire spread into his shoulders and arms from the force put into the blow. (Four)Kort takes aim with his crossbow again; the archer he'd pegged prior had recovered from his shock, drawn his blade, and was advancing towards him. Blade ready in his opposite hand, Kort lets the merc get close enough to swing before he fires the bolt. The merc's blow was a feint, he easily doges the bolt, and Kort is now left with a very angry broadsword wielding merc breathing down his neck. The young man drops his crossbow, but has to deal with the merc using his off hand. Zee dispatches the slaver quickly and then moves into support Rexx, sword flashing like flickering death...Zee charges through the camp towards the bulky merc menacing Rexx, he watches as the tiefling dances away from the blow aimed at his chest. Zee's blade flashes out, but the merc catches Zee out of the corner of his eye. He stumbles back but takes the brunt of the blow on his mace.  Barnabus continues to dance out of the way of the archer's wild swings, all the while taunting the merc. Something about his mother being a nupperibo and his father a rutterkin. The quasit tucks in and caresses the merc with his claws once again. Shouting vulgarities the mercenary lunges at the retreating quasit, but his own feet catch on each other and the merc ploughs into the earth face first. (Effectively five)One of the bats lets out a piercing scream and explodes in a small cloud of ash and flame. The two mercs involved wheel and look for new opponents. As they do, smoke explodes from the fire, a billowing cloud rolls from the flames and engulfs the melee. "To horse! Ride! We'll pay these bleedin lemures back for their peel!" Cedric's cry is accompanied by the sound of horses stomping and whinnying.</blockquote>
