Turn SixAction: Dive under there and strangle the little runt! Then, use it's corpse as a bludgeon to kill others!
Hissing like an angry Sssykr, Lady Foxglove leaps forward into the shadowy bush, clasping the offending kobold between both hands and throttling it so hard she
…fractures its neck!
It drops seemingly lifeless to the ground, but as she leans down to grab it by the ankles to use as a bludgeon she has the most chilling premonition of being stabbed right through the chest if she does.
She rests one foot on the kobold and scrunches down until she is satisfied, strategically rearranging her hair as she does so.
Wind Step to hide, and work my way over to where the two kobolds splattered. Take cover in the hedgerow myself.
Crawl towards the two splattered Kobolds, while keeping my wounds staunched.
"That'll teach you to shoot me," mutters a sudden breeze wafting across the field.
…Invisibly, Tackov gets out of the field of fire and into the hedgerow and safety whilst behind him Whiz contorts half-nakedly across the ground using his unorthodox robe-wearing technique.
…He manages to get into cover next to Tackov, who whispers to let him know he is there and that he can see disturbingly far up his dress and perhaps he should he should rearr-oh gods is that a crossbow bolt sticking out your chin?
Whiz pulls himself up against a tree, still bunching up his robe against his bleeding face.
Charge at Medha, since the other one’s vanished.
Bukkar's head would be glowing right now if he'd bothered to learn that in Angry Lighting Class. As it is, he charges up to the nearest kobold and LIGHTNING FISTS it in the kobold. And continues punching it until it is naught but a corpse.
Ignoring the crawling bleeding wizard and puzzled by the disappearance of the mighty blasting wizard, the kobold sergeant charges out of cover to take on the fancy theatrical apparent wizard with all the smoke and shouting.
He dashes across the dark uneven ground; he raises his short sword in a flash; he sweeps it down in an ugly slash and
…severs one of Medha’s ribs!
She falls backwards to the ground as blood spurts dramatically from the huge gaping wound!
Wound Acquired: Medha Correo:
Severed Rib! Bukkar turns and charges the unfortunate sergeant who is now by far the nearest enemy: he LIGHTNING FISTS it in the face!
The blow is glancing, but the accompanying lightning that shoots out of Bukkar’s angry fist smashes the kobold to the floor, where he lies stunned and smelling of singed meat and eyebrows.
Wound Acquired: Kobold Sergeant: LIGHTNING FACE!
Rush out to save the sergeant from the terrible angry man!
…The kobolds, already shaken by the raining kobold crushing their friend, see their leader – wait, no, their non-commissioned officer, he’s not really that important is he, lads, eh? – struck down by the terrible LIGHTNING FIST of rage, issue forth a terrifying warcry, and flee east directly away from the battlefield.
Hide behind a tree or something, then try to stem that blood flow somehow! Utilize any available measures - clothes, any bandages I might have around, anything of the sort.
The fleeing kobolds ignore Gervedder, taking refuges behind a tree and frantically searching his pockets for spare hankies, clothes, bandages or minor healing potions that he might have around.
He
does have a minor healing potion!
…He swigs it down, suddenly remembering that in fact it isn’t a minor healing potion, but a major healing potion that, just like the glory of saving the known world from certain destruction, he stole from his lord Baron Uldenago!
It’s got quite an aftertaste of plum and vanilla and red berries – Gervedder’s fairly sure that it’s a Chateau Ryikfeldt 997 vintage potion. He licks his lips, watching the kobolds flee past.
If visible: Bad Luck Curse, Kobold Sergeant.
Either way, advance to the north and assist in clearing out the hedge. With stabby stabbiness and such.
Angrily struggling about on the floor next to one of her ribs, Medha does all she can:
…she quacks out a cheap curse that she would have had to flee the village for if she’d sold it to even the densest of illiterate peasants.
Cursing her hastiness, she bounds forward despite the pain.
…She stabs the nasty little kobold in the guts!
Wound Acquired: Kobold Sergeant:
Mildly Pierced Guts!Shoot the magic woman!
The kobold sergeant hears the ferocious fleeing warcry of his men. He starts crawling away, yippering after them, and the last kobold steps out of the shadows to cover the sergeant’s retreat.
A single bolt shoots through the air, pierces Medha’s liver, and then the crossbowbold turns and runs.
He doesn’t wait to see Medha collapse once more to the ground, and he doesn’t wait for his sergeant to catch up.
Wound Acquired: Medha Correo:
Pierced Liver!I rolled Lady Foxglove’s kobold’s attack before working out the effect of the wound she inflicted. He got a 6vs1! To the chest! Which I would have let him have if she’d picked him up, because fractured necks aren’t all that serious or something. But she rolled a 3, and failed to pick him up by the ankles, so I figured he’d just… lie there.
Also, I think that the kobolds would have had a good chance of killing more than one of you but at considerable cost to themselves, so given the supernatural forces unleashed I think, with their rolling a 2, that it would be more likely for them to flee to safety.
Also also, I know it’s only a minor pause after a minor action, but feel free to offer any feedback or anything. I am not used to being so… serious. Hopefully it is still all ok.
