T'Ranis moves towards one of the Falchion-wielding hobgoblins, and notices that the goblin has already taken a few minor slices in his scuffl with the human warriors. T'Ranis' bolt, however, is much more than a "minor slice" - it pierces the armour and is buried in the hobgoblin's flesh. He lets out a primal howl of pain.
Shadow makes his
Suggestion (8) against a hobgoblin carrying a shield. The hobgoblin stares at Shadow, and nods. He takes a few steps back, keeping his shield ready to protect him from further attacks.
The human warriors, seeing another group of people arriving on the scene, panic and pull back. A few are sliced down by hobgoblins, but most escape to relative safety. They hover perhaps forty feet away, being rallied by a sullen-faced man with absolutely no hair. He yell "come on, boys! Just more for us to kill!"
But the humans are not convinced.
Guardian gets ready for whoever wil move to attack.
The three active hobgoblins with shields regain their footing, and shout with glee as the humans pull away. Two of them charge Guardian, while the third moves to attack T'Ranis.
Charge attacks on Guardian, Guardian, and T'Ranis (1d20+8=17, 1d6+2=8, 1d20+8=17, 1d6+2=3, 1d20+8=28, 1d6+2=8)
(yikes)
Crit Confirmation on T'Ranis (1d20+8=24, 1d6+2=4)
Two slam into Guardian, but their blades cannot break the Warforged's defnces. However, the one that charges T'Rans is able to catch the Scout unawares - he brings a scimitar down and it is only because of a warning shout from Tondrek that the scout is able to move to prevent his head from being sliced clean off. However, he doesn't move fast enough to prevent the blade from cutting painfully down his side, drawing a thin ribbon of blood that soon blossoms.
Lori...
The Hobgoblin Sniper moves into position and fires two shots at Lori. Both shots
hit, for a total of 17 damage. One arrow strikes her square in the stomach, and when she looks down, she sees that almost an inch of arrow has buried in her abdomen. It hurts incredibly, and she stumbles around for a moment.
Haltash manifests his astral construct, which charges into a clump of hobgoblins. Unfortunately, even with it's charge, it doesn't hit.
Haltash is equally unsuccessful when he fires a shot at the sniper, who has already ducked behind some wood.
Tondrek ducks into an open doorway, resting his shield against a wall, and draws out his crossbow.
The two hobgoblins with Falchions move quickly - one going afer Guardian, and a wounded one hoping to finish off T'Ranis.
Both hobgoblins are
unsuccessful.
