[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6865014, member: 6696971"] The 7 giants stare hard up at you, their cro-magnon brows and hairy faces making for an indecipherable mask. The 4 in the rear are lithe and long, holding longspears, butt on the ground, and a sheaf of javelins adrorn their hips. The 2 flanking Korshek are impossibly thick brutes, eschewing weapons and all clothing save for a simple loin cloth. Korshek is the biggest of the bunch, all of ten feet with high cheekbones, braided hair, and a mangled left eye socket and brow. Like those in the rear, his hairy body is covered by pelts and furs adorned with crudely scrawled pictorials indicating service to the The Maiden of the Moon. He takes in your words as he white knuckles a beautifully carved longspear. The two menacing figures behind him speak up in their giant tongue, all grunts and thick-sounding as if they're talking while eating. What little you know informs you that they aren't pleased by your disrespect. Disrespect that is passed on to the Three Fates they serve. Korshek must offer you up to The Crone (the Raven Queen). Korshek clearly does not agree and violence nearly breaks out for a moment, when suddenly the fey giant leader wheels and heaves his longspear up at you, churning his legs as he barrels behind it. The fine carvings of the wood become scales. The wood "melts" into the form of a serpent, a huge constrictor with fangs leading...bearing down on you with incredible speed. The hulking hunters behind him look on, motionless. [sblock]Obviously I'm accepting the duel. Let me know how you're going to handle this snake. Just fyi, Korshek was at Near range, but he is in dead sprint up the steps. You can Wind Slash him if you'd like, but you can only get a 7-9 max, the complication will be danger, and the danger will be the giant constrictor.[/sblock] [HR][/HR] Quick breakdown of your immediate surroundings: 1) The tower is a good 20 paces behind you on a stone path. 2) The ruined stair is a good 30 ft wide. It is pocked and cracked by settlement/natural earth movement everywhere with bones strewn all about. Of primary note is it is missing a massive chunk near to the top, to your right. It is like an Earth Titan decided to take a bite out of it. The fall to the ground below is a good 40 feet. [/QUOTE]
