Rushing past the other goblin, still not quite sure what is going on around the corner along the way her quarry has fled, Kyalia slows down on Viator's words and tries not to give her presence away too easily.
She pulls out two arrows and aims at the fleeing goblin.
“Uh, oh. Four more of those hobgoblins are down the corridor.”
[SBLOCK=OOC]Move: Move to E-2 (to the corner; on the previous map it kinda looked like the corridor wasn't that broad, but there is plenty room now, so not going too far in), provoking an OA from Spizz (AC 19; there's some hope that he can't make a good attack while holding his crossbow). Use Stealth (at -5) to gain Combat Advantage.
Standard: Twin Shot (on Tomo first, if he goes down with the first shot, the second one goes to Hobgoblin #5 (the one who's name we cannot see, and who seems to be one of the more lightly armoured ones)).
Minor: Hunter's Quarry on Spizz.[/SBLOCK]
Kyalia scurries by Spizz who is at present balancing a hand crossbow with his short sword, and not doing great- he spots the Elf at the last instant and swings wildly in the hope of making a connection, alas it's not to be-
"Sugar Puffs!" Spizz curses.
[sblock=Spizz Mechanics OA- Distracted]
OA: Short Sword (-5 To Hit) Kyalia-
[/sblock]
Kyalia reaches the corner of the corridor and peers around, spotting the running (Combat Advantage) Tomo, her first arrow flies- and thuds in to the Goblin's back, the creature falls and skids to a halt on the cold stone floor- stone cold dead.
Kyalia re-aims in an instant, picks out one of the lightly armoured Hobgoblins in the chamber ahead, The Hobgoblin looks distraught and unprepared, the arrow flies and catches the creature in the throat, he clutches the spot and goes down gargling blood and fighting for air- in second the Hobgoblin is dead.
Kyalia turns back and winks at Spizz, winks.
