Her vision flashes to that of her familiar perched upon her shoulder. The view is disorienting at first, the alien senses of the spider throwing her off balance. The predatory vision and instincts of the spider quickly alert her to the figure drawing a blade behind her. As the chameleon skinned creature lunges at her back, Nia deftly spins along the inside of the blade, denying the creature his prize. The creature curses, showing its white teeth while it assumes a combat stance.------------------------------------------------------------------------------Svexyn's lithe fingers work his tools like a master sculpter. His digits apply just the right pressure at the right angles until his artistry is rewarded. The lock clicks audibly as the mechanism slides into alignment, releasing the lock on the door.Caytis takes his position at the door, the green energies of his magic fading from his image as the spell takes hold. His fingers drum on the hilt of his sword, the nervous adrenalin preparing him for battle.---------------------------The skulk attempts the strike again, but the rapier slashes empty air over Nia’s head. Wilbur moves to assist, but the skulk is inhumanly fast. It slidies out of the way of Wilbur's stab. The skulk opposite Marcus answers his challenge with a wicked lunge. Marcus’s heavy gauntlet deflects the blow from his midsection, but the tip of the blade slashes across his cheek. A trickle of blood runs down his face. The skulk grins wickedly. First blood goes to me city man. The patterns on the creatures skin shift as he prepares for his next strike.Marcus ignores the attacker immediately before him and turns to assist Nia. Marcus’s heavy flail sings through the air, striking the skulk in its chest with a sickening crunch of bone and sinew. The lightly armored foe is no match for Marcus’s heavy swing, but he remains standing, clutching at his chest. Nia slips a well balanced fighting dagger from her arm sheath and slashes at the wounded skulk’s throat, but even in his injured state, he is too fast for her. His long blade deflects the dagger harmlessly aside. The creature starts to laugh, a putrid and mocking sound, but is cut short as Valinnan’s rapier pierces his side and runs him through. Val pulls the blade clean with one swift motion as the lanky humanoid crumples like a heap of dirty laundry. As the creature expires, its skin returns to its natural deep purple shade and no longer mimics the environment around it.[sblock=ooc]*Visythryx opens the lock success*Skulk 2 misses Nia*Caytis casts shield*Wilbur attack misses*Skulk 1 hits Marcus 1 DMG*Marcus hits Skulk 2 DMG 13*Nia misses Skulk 2*Val hits Skulk 2 5 dmg[/sblock]</blockquote>
