[QUOTE="pneumatik, post: 5023929, member: 21087"] Hollister's [i]fiery burst[/i] engulfs the Renard and his mount. Renard leans down beside his horse and avoids the worst of it, but his horse it not so lucky. Korrin presses forward, swinging his now white-hot falchion at the enemy. He swings wide, failing to connect. Liiros has better luck as his swing bites into Renard's flesh. Or at least it would have if Renard hadn't deftly shuffled his mount to the side and avoided the swing. Instead, Liiros does no better than Korrin. After Lytha speaks Renard looks at her. [COLOR="yellow"]"Get out of my head, witch!"[/COLOR] he shouts. Rae loads and fires his crossbow again. The bolt buries itself in Renard's gut. Seeing Liiros' wounds, Torrent calls on Osprem to heal him. Liiros' wounds close as her prayer is answered (heal 10 hp). Renard backs his horse up another five feet and to the side. He looses two more arrows. Both head in Liiros and Torrent's general direction and both fail to connect for any damage.[COLOR="yellow"] "Kathor! Get up here!"[/COLOR] he says. From their hiding positions in the bushes both scouts {S1, S2} reload and fire their crossbows at Liiros. They both miss and the bolts whistle past Holister and Rae before they *thunk* into the cliffside behind them. Another thug {T3} rounds the corner and fires a crossbow at Torrent. He must be too far away, because the shot is wide. Finally, the man from the Poison Apple fight {K1} rounds the corner. [COLOR="Yellow"]"I'm coming, Renard!" [/COLOR]he says. Unlike the other mounted enemies who were on light warhorses, this man rides a giant of a horse. It is heavily armored and intimidating in its own right. While the horse advances the man readies himself to charge, the afternoon sun glinting off the edge of greatsword. Behind him are the two thugs who just ducked around the corner a moment ago. Now they're carrying saps instead of crossbows and smiling evilly in anticipation of Kathor's brutal assault on the party. Seeing this new threat Torrent says, [COLOR="Red"]"Korrin or Liiros, whichever one of you wants to get bigger stay close to me,"[/COLOR] and begins casting a spell. [sblock=OOC]I took Rae's action to keep things moving. Sorry I didn't answer you earlier, Theroc. Rae's being observed by Renard at this point, so hiding it pretty much impossible unless you or someone else distracts him with a bluff check or something similar. I didn't initially realize this, so I rolled a hide check for you opposed by Renard's spot. I used your hide check 1d20 results as an attack roll, which meant you hit. Arkhandus is right, I forgot to have Torrent go last round. She went twice now, right before and right after the enemies went. As far as the order in which PCs take actions, being able to delay means your order is whatever you want it to be. A pbp makes it difficult to do coordination between PCs, so I don't mind some flexibility if one PC wants to do something before a second, but the second has already posted. New map attached.
