(RP) Dangerous Legacy

[Vendetta]

Sel'Tarien strikes without warning... but the guard in front of him is more than aware and draws his own sword to parry. The guard standing next to him jumps back some in surprise of the move. But Sel and his guard are sword locked. "I was waiting for this... didn't think you had the balls. Not that I can be blamed for that... I mean, you are an elf!"

--------------------==================((ooc))==================--------------------​

that's round one, the surprise round... though sadly, I only rolled a total of 12 for Sel's attack with the guard rolling several number above what he needed to see it coming and not be caught flat footed.

The other guard IS flatfooted until his action in the initiative in round two...

 

[Knight Otu]

"I mean, you are an elf!"

"This is why you fail. Our spirits are not only unbroken - With every step you took to break us, you only strengthened us!" Sel taunts as he continues his assault.

With a reckless disregard for his own personal safety, Liam charges headlong through the filler post. Little pieces of php code scatter everywhere.

 

[Knight Otu]

Sel'Tarien continues to press on.

 

[Vendetta]

Sel'Tarien brings the pummel of his blade down on the guard before him, having very little effect as the guard calls out "In the name of Lord Movak!" The blade gets an eerie sheen to it as the vile guard slashes across the body of Sel'Tarien, drawing a line of blood across the elf's chest. The elf swoons for a moment as he feels his body being... invaded... but somehow he is able to resist. A strange glow of black and green begins where Sel's blood touches the blade and rolls down the sword until it is absorbed into the arm of the vile guard.

Jaeden draws his own rapier and stabs the guard in front of him squarely in the middle of his body. The guard gasps and swings his own sword, barely missing the bard.

Odo watches as Gemble pulls out his small little bow, nochs and arrow and fires under the arm of Sel'Tarien, into the side of the vile guard.



((OOC: it will be a couple turns before Krueger and Liam make it to Sel's group. Sel takes 5 points of damage and makes a will save))

 

[Knight Otu]

Smiling grimly after receiving his vile wound, Sel aims to return the favor, and now enters lethal combat.

 

[Vendetta]

Sel takes the opportunity the Vile Guard affords him, not taking the defensive properly against's Sel's pummel attack and turns the point of his blade into the right chest of the man. The strike is deep and true and the guard cries out in truest pain. ((CRIT, doing 12 points of damage))

The guard slashes angrily at Sel, but the nimble elf is easily able to dance away from the blade.

Jaeden stabs the guard in front of him once again, who then falls against the wall and slides down, looking the bard in the eyes with an expression on his face that seems to say "How could he beat me so easily?"... but this second guard is a pup when it comes to combat experience and prowse, not even close to par with the Vile Guard who now regains his composure, realizing his previous mistakes.

Gemble launches another arrow, but this time, fires just wide of both Sel and consequently, of the Vile Guard as well.

((ODO is holding and can will act first next round and then again later that round, normally, if we get a post from him, if no, I'll Auto him on the held action then hold again))

 

[Ferrix]

Odo draws his dagger but holds it ready, "if you support the king, take arms against this traitor of the crown and your people." He tries to sway the non-vile guard to their side.

Diplomacy +15

The guard flops over on the ground, eyes fixed on Odo... he is dying... but his eyes are fearful, terrified in fact.

Odo draws his dagger but holds it ready, "if you support the king, take arms against this traitor of the crown and your people." He tries to sway the non-vile guard to their side.

The guard opens his mouth as if to speak, but only blood burbles out. Watchfully, Odo notices tears beginning to fall from the guards eyes as he tries desperately to talk, managing nothing more than a muted moan.

 

[Ferrix]

"Damnit Jaeden!" He'll rush to the side of the fallen guard and attempt to apply a healing spell to save him.
