"Stay behind me," he commands as they move. "With luck, you and I and maybe some of these other fools will survive this thing." His voice lowers fractionally. "Let these big city vampires deal with their own problems."Elena resigns herself from her purse, nods, and follows Marcus quickly towards the door.Francis turns towards the bar..."Do you have a ligther?" he asks to Paul.Francis jump over the bar and grabs a bottle of top-shelf vodka. "Have you ever made a molotov Cocktail?""Funny you should ask me that." Paul grins, sliding over the bar to join Francis. "I've thrown together a couple in my time."He looks thoughtfully at the shelf behind the bar, selecting the highest proof to lowest cost ratio he can find -- a bottom of low-name rot-gut tequila.The two grab a dry bar-keep rag and stuff it gingerly into the bottle-spout.Horus stands, his sword at the ready, as Nick struggles to maintain his hold on Elias.Elias howls in rage, sacrificing some of his unholy power to speed his movements.  He easily throws the grapsing Nick from him like so much lint, and weakly attempts to parry as Horus swings his cane-sword, but only lightly turns the skillful blow, which cuts deep into Elias' exposed side.  Despite the blow, it only barely slows Elias' progress to the stage.  Elias drags himself up onto the stage, turning to face the now terror-stricken Rachel.(OOC Dread Gaze -- Cha + Int, diff 9 -- 1,9,10,5,6 +1 success for Willpower = 2 successes)(OOC Nick's Hold -- Str + Brawl, diff 6 -- 6, 6, 5, 3, 8, 5, 7, 1, 7 = 4 successes)(OOC -- Elias' Altered action list1: Throw Nick off2: Parry aside Horus' attack3: Move to the stage4: Ascend the stage(OOC Aborting action 1 (Will, diff 6) -- 5, 10, 4, 9, 7, = 2 successes)(OOC Aborting action 2 (Will, diff 6) -- 2, 2, 4, 8, 9, = 2 successes)(OOC Aborting action 3 (Will, diff 6) -- 3, 8, 5, 3, 8,  = 2 successes)(OOC Aborting action 4 (Will, diff 6) -- 1, 10, 4, 8, 2, = 1 success)(OOC Escaping Nick (Str + Brawl, diff 6, resisted):     Nick - 2, 3, 6, 7, 4, 1, 6, 5, 4 = 2 successes     Elias - 4, 2, 6, 6, 4, 10, 2, 1 + 3 successes (Pot) = 5 successes)(OOC Parry against Horus (Dex + Melee, diff 6, resisted):     Horus - 6, 10, 6, 7, 4, 4, 10, 9, 8, 9 + 2 rerolls 10, 5 + 1 reroll 2 = 9 successes     Elias - 1, 9, 9, 7, 6, 1, = 2 successes)(OOC Damage of Sword Cane (11 dice, diff 6) - 9, 5, 2, 7, 1, 8, 1, 4, 7, 3, 8 = 3 successes)(OOC Soak Roll (Sta + For, diff 6) -- 1, 5, 4, 10, 1, 7 = 0 successes)</blockquote>
