Trevor too takes another wound, and staggers on his feet, ready to fall to the ground.The scene around the young paladin still moved in slow motion. His blade's momentum on the killing stroke sent him almost doubling over, and he quickly tried to regain his balance and bring the tip of his blade up and off of the stone floor. Blood dripped from the length of the blade, and Coraine said a quick prayer to his Lord for his aid in his darkest hour. Still resolved to the fact that he was to meet up with his Lord sooner, rather than later, Coraine turned to face the guard that had been skewering him all along. Calling once more upon the might of Heironious, he lunges forwards once again, and plunges his sword into the man's side. The guard gasps and groans, but maintains his footing.Seeing Trevor's need, and quite safe now in his position high up the wall of the chamber, Verdis sends a bolt of mystic energy lancing into one of the guards. The man cries out in pain and slams up against the wall, and then bounces off and crashes to the floor.Seeing the battle turn around and the cultists slowly drop one after the other, one even by her own blade, despite all her efforts to make it difficult for her own attacks, Dara continues on her course. With her companions heavily wounded (at best), she couldn't dare to let her defenses go down yet and sink into the battle frenzy that surely would make short work of these foes, but also put herself at risk. The guard facing her avoids the latest series of her blows, and though his own counterattack comes close to drawing blood, Dara parries the strike at the last moment.Kurt, buoyed by their recent success, and confident that Heironeous and his own shield will protect him, the cleric continues to support Coraine. While still wounded, the paladin feels considerably better than he had only moments before.The warrior engaged with Kurt, now wounded by the paladin's heavy smite, steps back from combat, and then flees through the opening in the stone wall, hanging a right and moving south.Round 7 complete above.OOC: I really hope they get enough money for their new server, because all this slowness is killing me...Initiative Count26 Trevor - longsword vrs G8 15 (failure)20 Guard b - 5' step, longsword vrs Coraine 19 (failure)19 Guard h - [Flanking Kurt], longsword vrs Kurt 21 (success), damage 517 Guard 7 - longsword vrs Trevor 24 (success), damage 616 Coraine - longsword vrs Gf 23 (success), damage 1316 Guard 8 - 5' step, [Flanking Trevor] longsword vrs Trevor 18 (failure)14 Verdis - eldritch blast (ranged touch) vrs G8 18 (success), damage 1113 Dara - 5' step, CE[2], PA[2], falchion vrs G3 6 (failure)13 Kurt - wand of CLW on Coraine, healing 710 Guard f - withdraw06 Guard 3 - longsword vrs Dara 23 (failure)03 Ragnok - [UNCONSCIOUS]PC StatusDara 17/29; shield for AC22 r8/30, combat expertise for AC24Verdis 11/22Trevor 03/30Kurt 09/31Coraine 11/36Ragnok -5/41; unconscious, stabilize=13 (failure)[sblock=Opponent Status]Guard 1 DEADGuard 2 DEADGuard 3Guard 4 DEADGuard 5 DEADGuard 6 -21; unconsciousGuard 7 -11Guard 8 -25; unconsciousGuard a DEADGuard bGuard c -22, unconsciousGuard d -22, unconsciousGuard e -21, unconscuousGuard f -13, fleeingGuard g DEAD[/sblock]-MAP (updated through current initiative count)-</blockquote>
