[QUOTE="Rhun, post: 4681065, member: 29098"] COMBAT, round 9 Both Trevor and Coraine lie bleeding on the floor, the knight still lit by guttering flames that burn along his body. They appear near to dying out; perhaps yet there is still hope for your unconscious companions. The demon now focuses on Ragnok, trying to take down the doughty dwarven warrior. It strikes him hard with one clawed hand, leaving a ragged wound...and more insidiously, the demon's flames leap onto Ragnok, burning him with otherworldly heat! Not wanting to take any more chances with her blade, Dara wages her options. Step back and blast him with magic, or try to duck under his hammer and grab him. She decides to try the grapple maneuver. Raising her falchion to get the priest into the defensive, Dara then simply drops it and jumps towards his shield side, in order to avoid being hit, and aims for his arms. Unfortunately for the warrior woman, her timing is off, and she takes a direct hit from the cleric's hammer...the blow finishes what the last strike had started, crushing the air from her lungs, and sending her sprawling to the floor... With a short laugh the evil high priest turns to attention to the next biggest threat...ignoring his rival cleric, the fire priest rushes across the temple toward the Warlock. Kurt tries to stop him, slashing with his sword, but the weapon only cuts his enemie's cloak. The cleric slams his warhammer into Verdis; although the warlocks fiendish nature absorbs some of the blow, the strike is a solid one. Kurt spontaneously cures Trevor with a Cure Moderate Wounds and then positions himself nearer the high priest before invoking Heironeous' Sacred Purification to heal all in the room. [COLOR="YellowGreen"]"That the best you can do, Smoky? Moradin's hammer, it's not good enough! And now you're out of time."[/COLOR] With that, Ragnok swings again - praying fervently to his god to make his boast come true! Whether Moradin and the other dwarven gods heard his prayer, or maybe Ragnok was really just as hard as the stone his people mine...one way or another the results were the same: Norryjar cleaves deep into the demon's skull, spraying flaming black ichor everywhere! There is a sudden deafening sound like that made by a roaring inferno, and then the fire demon explodes into char, ash and smoke... The warlock spits blood and smiles at the priest. He pulls his Morning star and swings, but melee is not Verdis' forte and the blow is ineffectual. The warlock is undaunted and puts on a brave face as he prepares for the priest's next blow.
