[sblock=Round recap
![Devious :] :]](http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png)
Mallick takes 4 damage, then breaks free from one stirge.
Nicodemus steps over the flaming remains of the stirges and strikes the Frog.
Brocc takes 4 damage from the stirges, but manages to cause them both to explode with a psionic blast, covering himself in blood that was just extracted from his own body.
Sledge takes 6 damage, but manages to also kill two of the stirges. He then heals himself.[/sblock]The Stirges (5 and 6) that are still attached to Mallick and Sledge drink deeply from their veins. The bloodsucker that Mallick shrugged off manages to re-attach himself, drawing out a bit more blood from him.
The frog, distracted by the giant flying bloodsuckers, reflexively tries to bite back at the advancing paladin, but is unable to connect. He hops backwards (shift to G13), before trying to push Nicodemus away with his long tongue. The paladin easily blocks the blow with his shield.

To escape the grab, use one MOVE action (per stirge) and make either an Acrobatics or Athletics check of 15 or higher. If you succeed, you may shift 1 square as part of the move action. (If any other stirges are still grabbing you, they will shift with you.)
While the Stirge has a creature grabbed, it gains a +2 bonus to AC and Reflex.
While the Stirge has a creature grabbed, it can only bite that creature, and it hits automatically.[/sblock][sblock=Enemies]Frog 3: 27 damage,
