Somewhat angered by the fact that this man, who seemed genuinely benevolent, is far from such, Sheldon figures he might as well taut the scum before he attempts to electrocute him. "You natureless Faethrin, you should sport a forked tongue to match your deceptiveness. No more niceties for you!"

Merin gets... charges...
... Sheldon figures... electrocute...
Merindell: 78(athletics)
Trout: 90(camouflage)
Trout: 60(launch) + 80(accuracy) + 90(clarity) + 75(d100) = 305 + 100(range) = 405

Merindell: 30(avoidance) + 38(analysis) + 171(d100) = 239
305 - 239 = 106% * 5 = 5 - 4(surcoat) - 2(tunic) = ineffective
405 - 239 = 206% * 5 = 10 - 4 - 2 = 4
Merindell: 41(finesse) + 49(accuracy) + 78(clarity) + 171(d100) = 339 + 78(athletics) = 417

Trout: 60(readiness) + 80(avoidance) + 50(analysis) + 75(d100) = 265 + 90(camo) = 375
417 - 375 = 42% * 8 = 3
Sheldon: 107(bending) + 61(shock) + 75(d100) = 243

Trout: 60(conditioning) + 50(fury) + 75(d100) = 185
243 - 185 = 58% * 9 = 5
Trout: Mind: 10 - 3 = 7, dazed. Body: 10 - 5 = 5, hurt.
In the course of about two seconds Trout realizes that he has grossly underestimated the two men he is facing. While he is faster than Merindell, the Amiradtha is pursuant of the identical field of study, being that of an enhanced athlete, and is incredibly fast in his own right. In the fractions of a second it takes the man to throw two troches, Merin closes and strikes him in the left side, bruising his ribs and causing some difficulty in breathing. The first of the two weighted throwing weapons makes a small incision in the overlying surcoat but does not penetrate the tunic underneath. The second punches through both and stabs into the gut of Merindell just as Trout is hit with his hanbo.

Adjusting his position to continue the benefit of his camouflaged appearance, his body shakes violently from an electrical shock that seemingly came from nowhere, though Sheldon is most definitely its cause. The shock hurts, and the man hops to the side to change the direction he is moving, needing to regain distance from Merin before throwing another troche. Being hurt and dazed, he will have much more difficulty keeping his distance.
Merindell: Body: 10 - 4 = 6, hurt.

Merin is still following his original inentions; this being the second round of combat, he will camouflage himself as he continues to pursue Trout, not allowing him to increase distance; he will continue to attack with the Hanbo.

Sheldon tries his best to track the movement of the camouflaged man. He only needs to remain close enough to keep him in a range where he can sense his presence, but he knows that he must be able to pinpoint his position to target him, even mystically. He yells at Merin, "I do not think he is trying to run away. He is using his talent to aid his guerrilla tactics!"

Merindell: 78(athletics, camouflage)

Trout: 60(launch) + 80(accuracy) + 90(clarity) + 80(d100) = 310 + 50(range) + 90(athletics) = 450

Merindell: 30(avoidance) + 38(analysis) +
Sheldon: 51 + 42 + 75(d100) = 168
450 - 168 = 282% * 5 = 14 - 2(tunic) = 12

Trout: 60(conditioning) + 50(fury) + 163(d100) = 273
305 - 273 = 32% * 9 = 3
Trout: Mind: 10 - 3 = 7 + 1 = 8, irritated. Body: 10 - 5 = 5 - 3 = 2, injured.
Despite his previous injuries, Trout suddenly becomes remarkably quicker. Merindell runs after the mottled image of the obscured man, thinking that he has his location tracked accurately, but then misses his mark, striking nothing but air. The man has managed to gain several strides on his pursuer, slinging a troche at Sheldon as he passes by him. The weighted weapon punches through his tunic and far into his abdomen, clipping something vital.

Sheldon goes down on a knee, then falls over on his side, but this does not prevent him from causing a second electrical shock to the malevolent athlete. Trout is not down or out, but he is injured. Sheldon's body may no longer function under his command, but his mind is only slightly dazed and still acutely functional.

Merin will BURN him to a crisp with a heat attack, augmented by the sulphur from our collections.
95(+95) = 190
90(+74) = 164
Two fantastic rolls!
I am gonna use the biggest roll for heat, augmented (x4) with the sulphur that's in our collections. The second roll can be used however the GM feels is fit. 😎

Trout: 60(conditioning) + 50(fury) x 3(item) + 161(d100) = 371

Since the enemy continued to run away from Sheldon, Merindell changes his direction of pursuit following the statement then fall of his friend, the odd movement of the shrubbery is enough to train his focus as the small quantity of sulfur dissolves from within its pouch. A heat mirage shimmers around an area of foliage that is not foliage as a metal objects flies from that location, straight toward Merin. The heat seems to coalesce and dissipate into a spot about the middle of the target area. Something dampened the altered waylines.

As the troche flies toward Merindell, a streak of lightning arcs from Sheldon to shimmering foliage. The leafy mass, which is the man Trout, falls to the ground, the leafy pattern changing to look like dirt. Trout is down but not out, otherwise the camouflage would have ceased. Unable to defend himself and not skillful enough at Bending to effectively assault another Bender, Merin trods over and beats the man to death with his hanbos, feeling greater satisfaction in the physical end.

When the camouflage fades, the man who is Trout is not just a bloody pulp, his skin is no longer the pale cream of a Spiofthest. It is a grey, liken to that of Merindell, himself. Sheldon tries to ask something of his friend but lacks the strength to make his voice carry any distance. He presses his hand to weapon in his gut, knowing it must be pulled free.
Merindell: Body: 10 - 4 = 6 - 3 = 3, hurt.

Merin sets about helping Sheldon as best he can; he will manipulate waylines to cleanse the wound, and to make the bodily organs move themselves out of the way, so as to facilitate an easier, hopefully much less painful, removal of the troche. He will then attempt to speed up Sheldon's natural healing processes.
88 = cleanse
74 = move out of the way
85 = speed up healing process
