The orcs who were casting spells both move towards Randal and as they do, they draw morningstarts from their side. When they get close enough, they attack Randal. The first one misses its mark but the second hits him straight to the head. He's head tries in vain to roll with the blow but is taken violently in the direction of the attack.
The beast on Qillathe bites once again at Krubto and tears a part of his flesh open with its filthy theeth. It then disappears in a puff of flames and leaves a lingering smell of sulfur.


Lorec once again trains his bow and lets loose two arrows. The first arrow misses a little but the second hits the orc straight to the guts. The orc doubles over momentarily and blood is dripping from the corner of its mouth but it stays up.


Velerel lifts Damon from the deck with some work. Damon is surptisingly heavy and Velerel has to watch his steps to avoid falling as he proceeds to the barrels.


Xael lets fly another bolt from his crossbow at the orc. The bolt hits the orc to the chest and buries half-way inside. A glassy look appears to the orc's eyes as it falls over face-first.
Xael then backs a little and runs towards the other ship, at the same time drawing his blade. He jumps from the railing and lands next to Randal.


After the beast disappears, Krubto moves to the boarding blank.


The goblins on the left-side ship move in for attacks.
First, a goblins moves to flank Xael with one of its friends. They both stab at him but he dodges the first and fends the other to the side with his sword.
Two of the creatures attack Randal, first attacks Randal from behind and hits the back of his knee, causing him to almost fall over. This gives the second a good hit at his temple.
And still one attacks Randal, trying to hit his side. But the humanoid misses miserably and almost crushes its own toes.
A horde of goblins surrounds Grim and starts whacking at him. Three of the six goblins hit him, the firs to his rear, the second to his shoulder and the last one to his chest.
Goblins on the right-side ship move to be ready for boarding.


Egan strikes forward with his axe to an orc, but his strike is deflected by the orcs armor.


Randal, a bit unsteady from the strikes that have hit him, raises his sword high in the air and then spins it in a spiral of death. The goblin behind Xael falls victim first, followed quickly by all the others. His spinning sword stops inches from Xael.


Grim attacks the orc to his side with a lust for blood visible in his eyes. Lucky orc has the strike taken by its armor.


Talindra takes a look at the guts of the orc between herself and Regmoril and then strikes at the one between herself and Egan. The second attack is dodged by the brute.


The orc next to Grim lifts its axe to strike at him, but hits the deck of the ship instead.
Other orcs near Grim also gather to be ready when an opportunity comes.
At the other side of Qillathe, the orc invasion is worse.
The orc between Reg and Egan strikes at Egan, but the attack is blocked be seemingly empty air.
Another orc strikes at Stumpy, drawing blood from the unarmored first mate's side.
Two orcs attack captain in an attempt to bring her down. She fends off both of the attacks with ease.
The rest of the orcs are looking for a chance to board Qillathe.


Reg stabs with his sword at the orc between himself and Egan even as he moves. The strike hits the orc deep and hard but it doesn't fall over.


Stumpy attacks the orc that attacked him with the knife attached to the stump of his hand. He strikes true but the humanoid doesn't fall.


Claro moves after Krubto towards the blank.


End of Round 5!
 


Grim turns his attentions back towards the goblins, sending all his strength with his sword, attempting to cleave them all in two...

[color=333333]Same as last round, full power attack, cleave if possible[/color]

Laughing a little to himself while he struggles to drag his unconscious crew mate back to the protection of the barrels, Velerel thinks, I shouldn't be surprised. I barely have the strength required to wear light armor -- which I don't, anyway -- so carrying a person should not be easy for me.
