COMBAT - ROUND 6
Not knowing what else to do, Trevor presses his attack against the guard in front of him. Slipping a bit on the ubiquitous blood in the room, Trevor is not able to do his best with this strike, and his blade rings of the foe's shield.
The commander takes advantage of Norryjar slipping in Ragnok's hand to strike yet another solid blow against the dwarf. Only by the grace of the gods and Kurt's divine channeling does Ragnok remain standing. "Ha, you should have surrendered, you fools!" cries the man. "I shall use your skulls to decorate my chambers..."
Steel continues to ring as the fight continues, the temple guardsmen attacking the lot of you. Still, in the next few seconds your company holds their own, suffering no further wounds.
Coraine continues his assault against the nearest guard, but a bead of sweat dripping from his forehead into his eye spoils his aim, and his longsword cuts nothing but air. The guard on the other hand, takes advantage of this, and his blade cuts deep across the paladin's stomach, opening a bloody wound.
Not liking the fact that the guard with the crossbow has now wounded him twice, Verdis changes targets. His power crackles through the air, striking the man and causing him to cry out in pain.
Dara adjusts her position, swinging her falchion powrfully as she goes, but again her blade misses the mark.
Kurt spits on the guard that struck him and sneers triumphantly. Once again he ignores the threat posed by his attackers and heals Ragnok with the wand.
The guards engaged with Dara pursue her, striking ineffectually at her defenses. Without the benefit of flanking her, they appear to have an even harder time scoring a wound.
One guard steps around behind Kurt, but the cleric is still able to avoid the man's strikes. Seeing this move, Ragnok disengages from the commander, and aims a savage blow at the man behind The Purger. Norryjar cleaves into the man's head, splitting it like an overripe melon.
The final guard fires another bolt at Verdis, but the warlocks attack had spoiled his aim, and the missile misses Verdis by nearly a foot.
Round 5 complete above.
