Combat, round 5 (round 10 since initial combat started)
Trevor strikes again at the entangled troll, but his blade fails to cut through the creature's thick, warty skin.
Having done what she could to keep the attackers from surrounding them at their leisure, Dara steps towards the foe and swings her blade at the orange (ish
) troll in wild fury. The blade comes close to its mark, but the troll pulls back just an instant before it would split him wide open.
The troll continues to strain against the webbing, clawing at Ragnok and Trevor, its teeth gnashing at them. The two warriors avoid any wounds as they dance around the entangled giant.
Ragnok shrugs off the damage from the troll's claws, and swings again. Again Norryjar cuts through the enemy's defenses, carving another deeps gash into the troll's chest, and certainly breaking some ribs. The brute roars and staggers, but stubbornly remains standing.
The fiendish looking troll growls against its wounds, reaching out its neck to snap its teeth at Dara. The warrior woman dodges, but Coraine is not so lucky as the brute's heavy sword cuts through webbing and air, and through armor as well! The blow strikes hard, but the paladin stays on his feet.
Kurt decides that the wounded Coraine deserves more than simply the wand, and so calls directly on Hieroneous to aid the holy warrior in His work. The healing restores the paladin's vigor, reversing nearly all the damage caused by the troll's blade.
Coraine strikes at the troll again, putting his weight behind the blade, and his longsword cuts another deep gash into the troll.
"Try lighting the webs on fire once you have him down!" shouts Verdis helpfully. His voice is high pitched suggesting this battle has him even more excited than usual. He quickly summons up another burst of arcane energy and tosses it at the orangish troll.
Damn, I'm good! He can't help smiling with satisfaction as the blast finds the mark again, scorching the Troll's face, burning an eye, and leaving the beast looking grisly indeed.
