Gartens laughs, shaking out her limbs in a clatter of chainmail.
"Good luck with that, bud. I'm not feeling particularly cooperative right now. Still, I have to thank you. It's gratifying to be proven right." Calling up to the sky, she pulls her tower shield close to herself and swings her spear down into a horizontal fighting position to one side of the massive shield.
"Get down here, Ragefist! We need your strength!" ((Initiative roll:
4... ))
The woman-warrior smashes her spear against her shield, sending a resounding crash through the canyon.
"Give me your best shot, you blasted cowards!" Her nearby allies felt an almost tingly sensation as the sound reverberated through their bodies. When it passed, they would have a comforting sensation of security, and their bodies would feel limber, as though they'd just stretched for battle. ((Protection Devotion activated as swift action. +2 AC for everyone on our side within 30 feet. Including myself.))
As the sensation faded, Celles was already beginning to build momentum, barreling towards the man down the canyon.
"Stay by my side, comrades!" she called out as she charged the man, though it would take a few seconds more to reach him. When she passed her hounds, she barked a command in Haljir:
"Derkev ges poun, Stauns." (translates roughly to "Sic 'im, girls.")
((Maneuvers Readied are: Charging Minotaur, Crusader's Strike; Douse the Flames; Stone Bones; Mountain Hammer; that's also the order the die rolls for which ones I'll get would be grabbed in(1=Charging Minotaur, unless it's been chosen, in which case it's Crusader's strike, unless it's also been chosen, etc.). Maneuvers Granted at the start of this encounter are: Charging Minotaur, Mountain Hammer, and Douse the Flames.

((Dogs will charge him, and if we're really going to use the Handle Animal rules(which are silly on this point), that would take me a move action to command them to do so. Which is silly. Talking is a free action, they're well-trained...but if it does, whatever. In that case, my other move would be a move action towards him(only 20' covered). If it doesn't take an action to do that, I'll run towards him(60' covered) instead. Dogs have 50' speed, so they can reach him in one round as a charge action. Kemik will enter Punishing Stance first, as a swift action.
