Message: <blockquote data-quote="reddist" data-source="post: 2324503" data-attributes="member: 5212">Kragor uses the last of his strength to strike at Kolchak, spinning once and stepping inside the man’s longer reach to smash his hammer-like fist into the giant’s throat.  The bald barbarian gurgles as blood fills his mouth, his larynx and airways crushed to pulp.  Kolchak crumples to his knees, red bubbles popping out his mouth, and then topples face down in the narrow stream.Jaleph’s spell results in another swirling rush of air, this one smelling of dung and decay.  The beetle appears in a burst of stench and rotting leaves, snapping its mandibles at Blue.  Blue recognizes the rushing sound off of a summoning spell though and nimbly skips away from the beetle as it lunges at him.  The dog snaps at Mango, keeping the orange-haired elf off balance but it fails to sink its teeth into the alchemist’s flesh.Blue, faced with a massive angry insect in front of him and a hostile dog nearby, drops his hand-crossbow and swings his curved short sword at the bug,  His blow lands true, cutting deep into the beetle’s exoskeleton and splashing black and green ichor across the wall as a leg goes flying.Bran and Marisa keep Red between them, dividing his attention.  Bran stops a thrust short, throwing Red off, then slams his rapier into Red’s side.  The point pierces through his torso, and Red makes the unmistakable short, painful gasps of a man dying from a punctured lung.  Red slides off Bran’s sword to lean against the wall, pressing his hands over his mortal wound, and he slowly sinks to the ground.Marisa takes advantage of Red’s fall and rushes to Kragor’s side, pleading to her dark god on his behalf.  Meanwhile, Mango yanks another grenade from this harness and tries to smash it across the dog’s head.  His own gods are with him and the pot bursts across the dog’s face, covering it in sticky flaming tar.  The dog, still smoldering from the last fire-bomb, yelps in pain as it staggers and falls to the ground, writhing in pain.From behind you can hear Ven roaring as he rushes to join you, his battle-cry booming as it echoes through the tunnel.<<< Kolchak and Red are down for good.  Blue and Mango are about 15 feet away from the party, but they have the beetle on the other side of them blocking the tunnel.  Both look pretty beat up, but neither are suffering from mortal wounds yet.  The dog has succumbed to repeated fire-bombings.  Ven will join the melee in the next round.>>></blockquote>
