Subject Turn

I have not heard from Josh but I am going to assume that Kal is going to fight defensivly, just like last round.

Turn will be out in a bit.

Subject Round 4

Round4

Init: Kal, Harp, Man, Thug2, Thug3, Thug4, Thug5, Thug6, Thug7, Thug8

In the semi dark Kal is unable to see how Harp is faring. The elf can hear the clash of swords on armor and shields as well as the cries of pain as flesh is torn and sundered, but the voice does not seem to be that of the 1/2 orc. "Hack, any time you want to get over here and give me a hand, it would be appreciated" Kal says loudly into the night air. He continues his defensive dance. For a second time Kal makes a half hearted attempt on the foe to his right and is again surprised to see his blade prick his foe in the upper arm (AC17, 15+3=18, hit, damage 7). He pulls the blade free and whirls his blade around, moving to block his foes as they move into attack again.

Harp continues his assault on the man in front of him (T4). First a massive over hand blow (AC18,15+12=27, hit, damage 11) this time the shield shatters, his arm breaking instead of being cut off at the elbow. Harp's second blow misses as the man brings his sword around in a parry (AC18,7+7=14,miss).

Kal continues his dance in earnest. The man he had just cut (T2) swings a sap at his head. Kal pulls his head back from the blow and it whistles harmlessly by (AC28, 8+8=16, miss). The man on Kal's other side (T3) takes advantage of Kal's distraction and slides his short sword hard into the elf's back (AC28, 20+9=29, hit, critical threat, AC28, 15+9=24,miss, damage 5). Kal's armor turns the blade but the hit will leave an ugly bruise for a while. The other three thugs fighting Kal find that the elf is always one step ahead of them. First a sword flashes in the pale light, (T5, 6+7=12,miss), then a pair of blackjacks swing from the dark, but they too fail to connect (T6, 16+6=22,miss, T7, 15+6=21,miss).

The two men in chain shirts facing Harp then attack. The one with the broken arm makes a half hearted attempt and Harp easily blocks the blow (AC20, 11+7=18,miss). His ally, however, is able to connect with a solid blow to Harp's breast plate (AC20, 12+9=21, hit, damage 4.) Harp takes another dent in his armor.

OODM: End of round 4. I need actions for round 5

Subject Round 5 actions

OOC: I woulda sworn I responded. Either way that's what I wanted to do. Thanks mark.

Kal redoubles his efforts after getting struck. He shouldn't have been hit at all, He must have let his mind wander.

He lets his dance overtake his mind. Every step becomes an end unto itself. He forgets the danger and the weapons. His enemies are now his partners, leading him and being lead by him.

OOC: He continues to fight defensively and chip away at the same guy.
