"What did I do?" Jaeden cries out defensively as he lunges at the Vile guard, catching him slightly in the side, a cut that the guard barely seems to notice.

Odo steps forward and quickly casts Cure Minor Wounds to stop the guard from bleeding to death. A look of relief crosses across the guard's face and he mouths the words "Thank you" just before he passes out... though, he is breathing and the wounds are no longer bleeding out.

Sel cuts across the guard's chest with his rapier, but the sharp tip never finds a good place and does not push through.

"For the Glory of Lord Movak!" The vile guard cries out again, activating his blade. He swings the sword violently at Sel, who is far too nimble for this attack and lithely moves out of the way.
 


[sblock]Victor, staying invisible, surveys the situation for a moment. He will keep his invisibility (which lasts for minutes) unless either Jaeden, Odo, Sel, or Gemble seem in serious danger.

It seems I’ve maybe bitten off more than I can chew with this dignitaries thing. What in the name of the Twins is going on?

Sel'Tarien thrusts his rapier but only grazes the Vile guard as the guard attempts to twist away from the cut. ((3 points damage to Vile Guard))

The Vile Guard laughs at Sel's words and attack. "One cut is not the sum of the attack, elf!" He growls as the heavy handed attack from the previous round turns back with his own twist and swings harshly into Sel's body, catching him in the lunge. The blade cuts deeply from Sel's side and up his rib cage and Sel immediately knows he's been sucked into a novice mistake. However, unlike previous attacks, the Vile Guard had not called out to Movak and in not doing so, he apparently did not activate the magical properties of his wicked sword as there is no glow t hat feeds on the wound and no healing that flows into the Vile Guard's body. ((Sel takes 9 points of damage.))

Jaeden lunges forward with his own blade and catches the guard center mass, right in the middle of his swing just as the guard caught Sel. The tip of the blade punctures the heavy plate chestpiece and the Vile guard cries out in pain. In virtual rage, the Vile guard whirls on Jaeden, gritting his teeth and calling out a string of profanities that would wilt flowers.

Meanwhile, Odo is attending to the wounds of the now passed out guard... he'll live.



Rushing down the hall, Liam, followed by Krueger, hear a howl of pain followed by heaving swearing. The clang of metal echoes in the hard marble halls and the pair know that there is a fight just ahead. ((You arrive on the scene of the fight at the end of the next turn))
 

[sblock]Victor looks on with intrigued eyes. Now wasn’t exactly the time to commit himself to a lethal conflict when none of it was really his business. Though the conflict – rather, any exciting conflict – was of interest to him, he thought it better to wait until there was no longer much danger of being stabbed to begin his inquiry.

[OOC: He continues to hold.][/sblock]
 

Sel grits his teeth after the newest wound. "Even so, you won't draw last blood." Sel taunts with his next attack. If he can enter a flanking position along with Jaeden beforehand, he'll do so.
 


Sel'Tarien moves diagonally toward the corner with a short five foot step, careful not to let his guard down, in an attempt to flank the Vile Guard. Jaeden sees the move and similarly steps behind him. With the advantage of flanking, Sel lashes out with his rapier and scores another hit, but does not get a cut deep enough nor strong enough to do any serious harm. ((Sel does 4 points of damage to the vile guard))

Jaeden also strikes with a similar result.

"Cute." The vile guard hisses, then carefully moves five feet past jaeden toward where Odo is struggling to drag the fallen guard away from the door and the fight. "He doesn't belong to you, runt!" The vile guard growls at the halfling as gemble darts to the other side of the hall. Then with a mighty blow and calling upon the name of Movak, the Vile Guard drives his sword into the chest of the fallen guard. There is a rush of wind as energies of some kind flow up the Vile Guard's sword and into the Vile Guard's body. He laughs demonically as the fallen guard screams out from his formerly unconcious state. And with that scream, a whisp of what could only be described as smoke floats up from the fallen guard, looking very much like the guard himself then desolves into nothingness while the body of the guard goes limp... dead.

((OOC: Krueger and Liam arrive at this moment))
 

Odo growls, spitting at the foot of the guard, he steps in opposite Jaeden, draws the dagger they recovered earlier and stabs at the guard.

OOC: +9 (+2 from flanking included) dagger of villiany (1d3 + 1 + 1d6 SA due to flanking)
