COMBAT - ROUND 5
Trevor, feeling bulletproof again now that he put down yet another temple guard who menaced him, turns his attention to the only guard in easy reach. With the guard distracted by Dara, the soldier plunges his blade into the man's back, dealing a serious wound, but not dropping him.
Though bleeding from two axe wounds, the commander can also see well the extent of Ragnok's injuries, and continues his assault, hoping to drop the dwarf despite Kurt's healing. The longsword finds its mark, and Ragnok staggers from yet another wound.
One guard steps around Coraine, scoring a shallow wound upon the paladin's person as he does so. Another guard engages the now unarmed Kurt, but the cleric is adept with his shield, and uses it to block the man's attacks. Just to the north, a third guard pursues Trevor, chopping at him with a longsword like he was firewood needing to be split. The agile soldier dodges out of the way at the last moment, avoiding harm.
His righteous fury being partially sated by the blows of his lord's blade, the young paladin continues to purge the room of evil, while keeping an eye on his wounded dwarf friend. Coriane knew that the dwarf would need some help against the so-called ringleader of this band, and was doing all in his power to free himself up. He aims a viscious, powerful blow at the nearest guard, but the man sidesteps the strike.
Despite the wound that Trevor inflicted, one guard continues his strikes against Dara, taking advantage of his companions' presence. He weapon misses the skilled barbarian, though, as do those of his companions.
Verdis launches another blast of arcane power in an attempt to aid Dara, and strikes one of the men engaged with her. Unfortunately, the blast doesn't seem to do much damage.
Dara continues her routine, but the guards continue to avoid her slow, powerful strikes.
Kurt continues to keep Ragnok propped up, and preventing either Coraine or Ragnok being flanked as best he can. "Best you can do, boy!" he taunts the guard trying to hit him. "The might of Heironeous will see you dead within the minute!," he adds as he deflects another blow with his mithral shield.
The guard standing before Coraine tries to take advantage of the paladin's attack on the commander, but is unable to find an opening.
The other guard fighting Kurt, obviously insulted by the cleric's words, growls and slashes, and in his fury his blade finds its mark, opening another wound upon the Purger.
Ragnok savagely attacks the commander, but the blood on his hands causes his weapon to slip, and he nearly loses his grip on Norryjar.
The guard with the crossbow apparently now has his range down, as another of his bolts finds Verdis, sticking into the warlock's calf.
