The paladin has small wounds, but likely suffers more from the vampire's life draining.Downstairs, a sudden change comes over Ismark: His features become more feral, with dreaded fangs and claws. He launches himself at the nearby halfling matron, a look of pure evil glee on his face. She is caught helpless in his crushing embrace! [Ismark fangs out and tackle-grapples the matron]Fully alert this time, Jarrith throws aside the bedsheet and dives for his rapiers. He flings himself at the door, heedless of anything else. Similarly, Avron slings his satchel over his shoulder and stumbles toward the door.Seeing the matron in straights, the large knight leaps to his feet. "Ismark, you coward! Your father would weep tears of shame to see his son so. Fight me, you wretch! I am the one you want!" The undead son hisses at Ismark, but knows better not to rise to the knight's bait. Frustrated, Urik signals Hurrn forward and approaches with his outstretched sword. [Urik's test of mettle failed]Then, without warning, a portion of the cold mists coalesce, forming into another emaciated and hungry shape. The undead spawn also bears a wicked grin, content to block the entrance.The warlock, knowing he risks hitting the matron, focuses his holy rage on the new spawn at the door. But the bolt fires far wide of the mark.[I'll allow Ashlyn to modify her move; everyone else has Round 3 actions]Init19 Khensu [44/52, drained one level]18 Woman17 Tessa [magic circ. v. evil]13 Ismark13 Jarrith13 Avron12 Urik10 Vampire Spawn9 Marot5 Ashlyn</blockquote>
