Razeem considers clawing at the monstrous bird, but thinks twice and leaves after Amira, who has also taken flight. The chick jumps and flutter playfully after them, landing on one of the abandoned ships, causing a shower of splinters to rise in the air. The other traps Akeeta and gets angry as the feral woman claws at it´s tongue, shaking violently it´s head. The the momentary distraction caused by Akeeta allows Menghil to slip under the bird´s leg and flee next to Al-Khazad, where he can also see the man at the cave. Jagra shoots his magic darts to pursue the one severely wounded, making it run even faster.[If you spend a standard action I allow the character to gain the bonuses for fighting defensively or using Combat Expertise. Jagra casts Magic missile at the retreating chick (12 damage). Amira casts Fly and moves out of range of the monsters. Menghil beats the bird´s grapple check (by 1!) in the first try and tumbles out of it´s way, moving next to Al-Khazad, who´s making a lot of noise.Akeeta claws at the unwounded monster (8 damage), and tries to flee, but is trapped by the thing´s beak. (AoO, 21 damage, grappled). Razeem heals 2 damage and also flies out of the harm´s way. (The birds have a reach of 15 feet, and Razeem, who was at 15 feet, would have provoked another attack of opportunity if he tried to move to attack and then would have been able to claw once. I made him move away instead)The retreating bird continues doing so, peeping heart-breaking noises, the one that attacked Razeem goes directly for the Al-Khazad (but is still out of reach) and the other one shakes his head, causing other 10 damage to Akeeta.Status is: Jagra 48/53, Al-Khazad 33/69, Amira 40/45, Menghil 23/83, Akeeta 27/58) Everyone is Hasted, Amira and Razeem have Mage armor active, Menghil and Akeeta are raging. One of the birds is retreating, has 193 damage, and a –6 Str penalty. Other has 8 damage]</blockquote>
