The Red Hand of Doom!!

Sir Jonathan 30/55 hp DDP: 10/10

Sir Jonathan thanks Heironeous for the new armor he acquired from the last hobgoblins he fought. If not for the new armor, he would probably be cleaved in two from the minotaur's axe. Luckily only half his ribs were broken. He thrusts out with his sword, towards the belly of the one that one nearest Virashil. Holy silver light emanates from his blade. His blade scrapes off the hob's armor and he doubles over in pain as the pain hits him. He grits his teeth and says, "Go Vira! Retreat to the building!" Jonathan also then takes a step backward.

Virashil's relief at the sight of the Minotaur being put down is short lived, as she sees the Manticore's master burst out onto the second story walkway and bark at the Manticore.

Moments later, she sees javelin sized spikes rapidly bridging the gap between her and the beast. Almost as if in slow motion, her slight body is impaled by three of the spikes and she is almost knocked off her feet and unconscious. She struggles to pull the spikes from her leg, chest and shoulder.

Realizing that another volley would kill her, she moves into the shadow of the building for cover and pulls out a small vial from her belt, quickly drinking the contents. The almond flavored liquid quickly makes her feel better, as well as closing a few of the gaping wounds from the spikes.

Sir Jonathan thanks Heironeous for the new armor he acquired from the last hobgoblins he fought. If not for the new armor, he would probably be cleaved in two from the Minotaur’s axe. Luckily only half his ribs were broken. He thrusts out with his sword, towards the belly of the one that one nearest Virashil. Holy silver light emanates from his blade. His blade scrapes off the hob's armor and he doubles over in pain as the pain hits him. He grits his teeth and says, "Go Vira! Retreat to the building!" Jonathan also then takes a step backward. Unfortunately he neglected to remember the Giant’s skeleton mixed in with the debris. He almost loses his footing on the Giant shinbone. A barrage of blows comes from Hobbies seizing the opportunity of the Knight’s tactical error. But all glance of his armor as he rights himself.

After hearing Jonathan, she feels a surge of divine power surge through her, allowing her the energy to swiftly act once again.

Looking around, in the relative safety of the corner of the building, she reaches down into her belt pouch and pulls out another vial of the sweet, almond flavored liquid. This one doesn't taste as potent, but it still staunches the flow of blood from several of her wounds.

Although tempted to try and dive past the hobgoblins to reach the bugbear, Duroin realizes that despite his skill in tumbling, it may be a bit outside of his abilities to successfully accomplish said feat. Instead, he bellows a war cry and brings axe and sword to bear against the line of hobbies, hoping to strike them down. All the while the dwarf keeps his keen eyes open for any speeding projectiles from the Manticore.
He hits one Hobgoblin with his ax, the blade fails to penetrate the armor but the sheer force and weight of the ax is enough to do some damage. He attempts to follow up with his shortsword but the grip is now slick with a combination of blood. His and Worg blood. However he manages to keep a hold of the blade.

The Hobby in front of Duroin scores a shallow would along the Dwarf’s thigh. Duroin realizes these are indeed trained warriors. Perhaps even more skilled then the Hobbies they met in the ambush.

The potion loving Hobby maneuvers next to Duroin and attacks Kirrg with a hack of his sword, leaving the Cleric with another puncture wound.

The next Hobby moves in pursuit of Jonathan but changes his mind at the last moment to attack Duroin. His indecision proves to be his undoing and his poorly planned blow misses widely.

The last of the foursome rounds the corner after the frost spewing sorceress. Again Virishal leaks life-fluid, this time from cold steel.

Kirrg takes a thorn to the thigh and grimaces. It's becoming more difficult to ignore the accumulation of wounds as blood drips across his armor from various locales. He steps forward, hoping to stay behind the cover of the rock in front of him and brings his great axe up high, and swinging it down on top of his hobgoblin foe but finds his way and his retaliatory blow blocked by the Hobby in front of him.

The Bugbear leader makes his way back into the safety of the tower, confident his Minions will deal with the threat.

From his perch the Manticore throws another volley of spear-like quills.
Only Duroin whose keen reflexes allowed him to avoid the volley and Virishal who no longer was an open target remained unharmed.

Sir Jonathan 20/55 8/10 DDP

Leading the Attack granted

Sir Jonathan braces his feet, thinking of the impossible strength of the mountains, standing tall in the face of strong wind and driving rains. He thrusts his sword at the goblin near him, hoping to draw it off of Duroin's flank.

Attack hobby number 3. Using stone power for a -4 on the attack roll. Healing goes to me this time.23 to hit, 7 damage Finally a hit! If I can 5' step to I7 or I6 I will.
 

I6 would cost 10' of movement and provoke 2 AoO. (You suffered 3 last round. I was amazed they all missed) I7 might be doable if you slay Hob3 who is in I7.
 

AC: 17; HP: 11/42

Bloodied and battered, Kirrg side steps around his latest foe, opening him up to the manticore in order to get more of an advantage to strike a blow true. Despite the pain coursing through his massive body and his blood pooling amongst rubble, he swings his axe hard and fast.

Okay, here goes. 5' Step to L7 to flank Hob2. Then attack Hob2 with a 23 dealing 12 if it hits. Then hope he isn't downed by thorns and swords before then.
 


Virashil, Sorcerer 5, Hp: 4/21

"You will die for that," Virashil spits as she regains her balance.

Realizing that the hobgoblin could gut her as she unleashes her magick upon him, she keeps her eyes open and does her best to keep her concentration on her magick AND on the hobgoblin.

Successfully dodging his blows, her incantation unleashes three bolts of silver that quickly streak into the hobgoblins body.

A smile escapes Virashil's bloody lips.

Duroin growls low as the hobgoblins blade opens the wound in his leg; he didn't like being surrounded by these veteren warriors. Stepping between two of the hobgoblins, Duroin presses his attack, axe and sword working in harmony as he sends them toward the foe in a high-low pattern.
