Philo - Human Paladin

Phillo now moves to assist Lorien.

He then attacks whichever orc looks bigger twice, and will attemt to cleave.

If the Orcs are dead, he will Lay on Hands to Verrick.

 

[Scotley]

Verrick Human Rogue/Wizard

Smiling greatfully at Norbac, "thank you once again my friend." He begins to incant and gesture sharply at one of the remaining Orcs on Lorien and two bolts of mystical energy and force leap from his hand to strike the Orc.

OOC: Magic Missiles at an Orc.

 

[Someone]

[occ] Ah assuming you moved back 5ft to stab Orc, got you [/occ]

Yep, reach weapons have their disadvantages, too.

Lucky for you all Geenaa can charge that far and she attacks the Orc with her flail...

Verrick Human Rogue/Wizard

Verrick retrives his bow and horse then begins looking for survivers of the raid.

OOC: Thanks to Norbac's spell Verrick is only down one hp.

Philo Human Paladin

Philo moves to Lorien and offers to heal him, and 'Lays on Hands' for maximum HP.

 

[Someone]

Continuing with the healing, Norbac casts Cure Serious Wounds on Philo again, [losing dispel Magic, heals 4+2+4+6=16 HP]

After the few but intense seconds of fight, the half orc tries to calm down, then looks around -beyond the field of dead orcs- to see exactly where´s he and what the orcs were doing here.

Philo - Human Paladin

Philo smiles as Norbec heals him and offers his thanks:

Thanks good Norbec. The light of the sun indeed comes from your hands.

Go and heal the others, if there is still power within you. The others are in much greater need than me.

Philo thinks to himself Truly this priest is an agent of good; despite his unfortunate heritage. The effects of orc-blood on one's character may not be what I once believed.

 

[Someone]

"Whatever" says as answer. "There no need to thank help in combat, it annoying. I help you once, then you do the same. It´s the way in war."

Norbac uses the wand of cure light wounds until everyone is al least at 3/4 of their hit points.

Looking around the homestead, the group finds a number of dead cattle, two other dead Orcs, with multiple arrows in them, and a burnt body of two men and three woman. Defrel doing a quick search finds a hidden trapdoor under some beams. After you move them, there is a stairwell leading down into a earth storage basement. Inside there is a young human girl of maybe 16, and three boys ranging from ages of maybe 12 down to 2 or 3 years old. All are crying and scard, but the girl is holding a dagger and says "You are yea? Get yea out of here or I will cut yea! You wount get us, like yea did our parents!" She seems especailly ready to attack Norbac...
