*Eternity and Aglaia advance down the tunnel with Almayce just behind. Up ahead, they see a dead-end room with a pedestal on which sits a small enruned hemisphere.*
"It's a dead end here--we'd better go back and help the others," Aglaia suggests.
*Meanwhile, Hulgyr moves back towards the fight--he can't get into the action this round because he is fatigued and can't charge (and because the others block him also), but he makes it up behind them anyway.*
*Michael defensively helps Ironwolf with the attack, and Ironwolf takes out the other Afflicted. Meanwhile, the remaining four push forward, attempting to use their mass and brute strength to push through the weakest link of the blockade--Michael. Ironwolf swings and badly injures one of them as it closes in. Michael has the option to let them past or to take an attack and hope to endure the incoming onslaught.*

Michael will make a total defense action and ask if Hulgyr's willing to trade places with him on the next round.
I swear if I get out of here I'm bringing these heads back in a bag and beating that captain with it.
OOC:Are these Afflicted wearing Fallonese uniforms?
Edit: Total defense is +4 dodge bonus to AC, no attacks or AOO's, standard action.
If Hulgyr feels enthused, Michael will trade with him on this turn -- but he feels it's unlikely.

(OOC: Okay, that's Michael's next action, but I need to know if Michael is blocking or avoiding right now?)

If this is happening the same round Michael aids Ironwolf, he stands on the line.
If this is happening the round after Michael aids Ironwolf, which is what it sounded like to me, Michael takes a total defense and stands on the line.
He does not move off the line until he can coordinate the withdrawal with Hulgyr.
Michael plants his feet firmly and resolves to fall forward if he dies. Hopefully he'll trap someone under his body for a few seconds.

(OOC: Same round--Michael and Ironwolf went, and now the guys he stunned last round are going)
*The mass of bodies rushes towards Michael and he stands his ground and strikes, knocking down one of the four that rushed him, but the remaining three pour onto him and over, spilling into the room. Then the next wave that has been rushing forward attempts to take advantage of the breach and rush in, but only the frontrunners make it inside--most are stuck just outside. (OOC: Wow, Ironwolf would have gotten so many AoOs if he had Combat Reflexes and infinite Dex
).*
*The squishing sound seems to be even closer now. It seems like something is coming from that right passage.*
(OOC: Michael is prone in his square. Six enemies are past him and in the room. Five more are stuck on the outside, where only two of them can actually effectively attack, but not until next round.
Okay, now actions from everyone for the next round!)

(OOC: She'll be back in Close range after a double move. She could also single-move and use some of her 6 free metapsionic points to Extend an attack and attack this round, if she so chooses)
"Good thinking," Aglaia agrees, "There's so many of them--we all need to work together!"

(OOC: It looks like the answer is yes, as long as both targets are still within 30 feet, which is easily the case. That only uses 4/6, leaving 2 for Empower or something)
