The whine from NR4ZN's servos sounds more like a complaint than a harbinger of intense mechanized force. But nevertheless the robot manages to swing its massive weapon at the magical rat creature with impressive speed given its severely damaged condition. The zoder then takes a step back, readying to fend off its foe's counterattack.

The whine from NR4ZN's servos sounds more like a complaint than a harbinger of intense mechanized force. But nevertheless the robot manages to swing its massive weapon at the magical rat creature with impressive speed given its severely damaged condition. The rat-thing jumps to the side, its speed matching that of the zoder's blow and keeping it from harm.
The zoder then takes a step back, readying to fend off its foe's counterattack.
Thelso again attempts to clamp his jaws upon the red-eyed beast before him but it avoids the dover's fangs.
The enraged badger slashes viciously with his claws, catching the rat twice, gaining strength as he goes, and the second slash tears a great strip of flesh from the rat's hide and leaving it broken on the ground.
Weylan slashes out at the rat in front of him, hoping to clear a path for NR to retreat. His mindblade catches the beast and the psionic energy tears into the rat, skewering it and leaving it horribly disabled.
The rat thing comes in at NR4ZN again, though not as recklessly this time, and it evades the zoder's waiting counterstrike. The stone blade fails to penetrate beyond the zoder's armor plates this time and the rat thing gets a frustrated look on his face. NR4ZN has now backed up to the edge of the rat pit on one side and the earthen wall on the other.
The rat on Thelso dances around avoiding the dover's jaws and snarling at Inamar, but unable to get past his defenses. One of the second rank of rats scrambles over the downed one to snap at the badger but does not land a solid enough blow to get through the badger's hide. The one on weylan overexerts itself in its lust to kill the man and lies twitching on the ground as something tears inside from the effort. Its last brother immediately scrambles over the unconscious body to attempt its own attack, but its jaws are foiled by Weylan's psionic force shield.

Seeing that her friends have the rats in check, but that NZ is having real trouble, Inamar moves to try to keep the man-rat close enough for a good shot, then releases another blast of arcane force at the beast!
(Move to keep the humanoid rat in Point Blank Shot range, if possible, and keep a-shootin')

Unfortunately her aim is terribly off and the bolt sails past the three foot tall rat man to collide with the smoking warzoder. The bolt explodes against his metal shell in a pyrotechnic display that thankfully leaves him unharmed.

The whine from NR4ZN's servos sounds more like a whine than a harbinger of intense mechanized force. But the robot manages to swing at the magical rat with impressive speed considering the damage to the zoder's frame. Again the blow the short rat-man nimbly avoids the crushing blow. NR4ZN then attempts to step back in hopes of fending off the rat creature's counterattack, but runs into the far wall.
Thelso snarls and snaps at the rat he is engaged with but the beast pulls back before coming to harm.
In a berserk frenzy the badger rakes the new rat with two of its claws again, drawing blood and a hideous squeal from the thing as its rat eyes flash red.
As the new rat leaps over its fallen companion, Weylan stabs at it, hoping to catch it off-guard before it regains it's balance. The rat is too quick and his mindblade jabs into empty air.
The rat thing again stabs into NR4ZN's side with the stone blade but once again the zoder's plates keep it safe. The rat thing gives off a squeal that jerks the attention of the rat attacking Weylan.
That rat skitters back towards its master, too quickly for Weylan to get off a counterstrike. The zoder lashes out at the beastie as it closes with him but the rat dodges the club's crashing strike by a whisker and runs up to threaten the zoder.
NR4ZN now has his back to the wall the pit of rats on one side, the evil looking large rat next to the pit drawing the zoder's attention, and the bipedal rat thing flanking on the other side, an evil looking grin on its face.
The rat on Thelso continues its dance with the dover, both darting in and back but unable to land solid bites.
The one on the badger lands a vicious bite that draws a shriek that soon returns to a snarl as their combat continues on viciously.

Cursing inwardly at her ineffectiveness so far, Inamar switches to a target a bit less agile...the rat that's flanking NZ. She fires off a blast at it, and says, "That thing's too fast to hit...maybe if you grab him or something!"
(eldritch blast at the flanking rat, not the humanoid rat. We must be rolling like crap.
