COMBAT - ROUND 3
Dara steps between Coraine and Ragnok and swings her sword against the nearby bugbear, cutting through the stunned creature's defense, and opening a bloody wound across his chest. Then, taking advantage of the goblin's distraction, she quickly scoops up its dropped blade up off the ground.
Trevor slinks up to the wall near the door, but he waits for someone else to enter the other room first. He stands ready to sneak attack any foe who comes through the door.
Seeing that some of the foes are stunned, Verdis takes advantage of their weakness and unleashes another blast and manages another hit, slaying the bugbear.
And then suddenly, the other doors around the perimeter of the chamber are slamming open, as more enemies pour into the room. And while it is simply more bugbears from the western door, from the two north doors come ogres; the one from the northwest is particularly nasty looking, in steel cuirass twirling a wicked looking flail about its head.
Coraine nods to Dara, and pulls back to the ogres. Standing in front, shield high, he calls Come, cowards! Your evil shall not triumph! It is nothing before the glory of the Invincible One
One of the bugbear reinforcements engages Kurt, and a brief exchange leaves a bloody wound upon the cleric.
Two of the ogres, succumbing to Coraine’s challenge but unable to reach him, pull rocks the size of the knight’s head from sacks at their belts, and hurl them at him with incredible force! Fortunately, neither one seems to have much in the way of accuracy as the boulders whiz past his head to smash against the far wall of the chamber.
Another of the bugbears moves to engage the dwarf, but his blade slides right off Ragnok’s steel plate without as much as scuffing the armor’s finish. Another moves to engage Dara, but fares no better.
