Chevri risked one quick look back over her shoulder, but other than that she stayed focused on the hallway behind them. "Go on, take a shot- every arrow might count," she hissed to the other shifter beside her in the hall.
 

Alexa follows on the heels of the retreating lizardman, keeping up a continual barrage of attacks with her hooked knife.[sblock=OOC]Alexa will 5' step to J6 if she can 5' step around the corner, otherwise she'll tumble I5->J5->J6. Tumble check (1d20 6=12) She'll Action Point that: Action Point (1d6=6) for a success. I won't actually mark that AP unless you tell me I did need to tumble.

Once she gets to J6, swift action to cast inspirational boost to up her Inspire Courage to +3 but end the effect; it will linger for 5 more rounds.

No one's hurt, so Alexa will Lead The Attack against L1. Attack and Damage rolls (Leading the Attack) (1d20 10=15, 1d4 3=5) That'll miss.

Her new Maneuver is automatically Douse the Flames (bleh).[/sblock][sblock=Alexa's mini-stats]ALEXA SHALESS

20—Chevri
--Drekhad
19—Alexa
16—Talas
12—Blackscales <-- ending here
7—Hedowin <-- starting here

Hedowin steps forward and casts a spell. A ball of fire appears and rolls onto the foot of the wounded lizardfolk, but the creature manages to deftly avoid its flames.

Chevri continues to watch the party’s back, and unsuccessfully tries to prod Bregan into action.

Drekhad steps forward and hits the retreating lizardfolk, drawing strength from his own attack.

Alexa steps forward next to Drekhad, but her attack is ineffective this time.

Talas effectively fights off the compulsion, then presses the attack against the wounded blackscale. His flail strikes home, and the creature’s club seems to grow heavier in its hands.

Despite its wounds, the blackscale swings its club at Talas and connects, dealing 14 damage. It then takes another step backwards. The other blackscale steps behind Talas and attacks him. Despite the duskblade’s distraction, the creature is unable to hit.

Drekhad will delay to strike after Talas and Alexa, moving his initiative to 15.

If L1 is still alive, Drekhad move to J7 and will strike with full force against L1 with Mountain Hammer. Otherwise he stays put and strikes L2 instead.

Mountain Hammer (1d20 10=27, 1d8 5=9, 2d6=7)

Drekhad then initiates White Raven Tactics on Talas again, giving him an opportunity. "Give it everything you have!"
 

Alexa keeps up the pressure on the wounded lizardman, reciting a prayer to the Flame in time with her bladework.
[sblock=OOC]Assuming L1 is still alive:

5' step to J7. Attack L1 with Crusader's Strike. If that happens to kill L1, switch Dodge to L2.

If L1 is dead:

Switch Dodge to L2. 5' step to K5 and attack L2 with Crusader's Strike instead.

Attack roll (Crusader's Strike) (1d20+10=18)
Invisible Castle hates me.
Action Point... Action Point (1d6=4)
Total attack roll: 22

Damage and Healing rolls (Crusader's Strike) (1d4+3=7, 1d6+3=4); the healing goes to Talas.

Either way, new maneuvers: New Maneuvers (1d5=1, 1d4=4), Crusader's Strike and Douse the Flames. Those look familiar for some reason...[/sblock][sblock=Alexa's mini-stats]ALEXA SHALESS

Hedowin, Mage 5, hp: 18/21

Hedowin strides forward slightly and sends the flaming sphere at the wounded lizardman once again.

[sblock=OOC] Move Flamingsphere into L1 again. 5' step to I4 [/sblock]
 

Talas 28/42 hp AC: 20 50% miss chance

Talas steps beside the blackscale once more, swinging his flail at the creature's kneecap, at the same time, his position seems to shift slightly.

[sblock=ooc]5' step to m7. swift action to activate displacement armor. 25 to hit, 8 damage [/sblock]
 

20—Chevri
--Drekhad (delay)
19—Alexa
16—Talas (moved by WRT)
15—Drekhad <--Ending here
14—Talas
12—Blackscales
7—Hedowin <-- starting here

Hedowin guides the ball of fire again, bringing it toward the black-scaled leg once more. This time the creature is unable to avoid it, hissing in pain as the flames char its flesh. [sblock=S@squ@tch] dealt 4 points of damage[/sblock]

Chevri continues to handle rear-guard duties.

Drekhad delays

Alexa lashes out with her dagger again, changing its direction at the last second to sneak past the blackscale’s defending club and catching the creature in an awkward moment as it shifts its weight. Her blade punches its way into the creature’s thigh muscle, eliciting a flood of dark blood. Talas receives 4 points of healing from a release of magical energy that accompanies the attack.

Talas steps forward once more, although he suddenly becomes hard to truly focus on, and connects once again with his flail, battering the blackscale with a vicious clout to the kidney. The creature grunts in surprise, and then collapses to the cold stone floor.

Drekhad turns to face the other threat, and unleashes a devastating attack, cleaving into the blackscale’s body with the force of an avalanche. The creature sags a little under the force of the attack.

Talas is up again.
