Stand back and fire that crossbow.
Such is the archer's due.
(6, 1d4=3+2=5 damage) Taking aim with both hands, you fire your crossbow directly into the horde! The metal bolt strikes a Hurlock in the face, causing dark red blood to spray out of the back of his head! The Hurlock gets knocked off of his feet by the shot and stays down. Reloading as quickly as possible, you fire off another shot, catching the ogre leading the charge in the arm! It doesn't seem to care much though...
As the horde hit the barricades, she stabbed forward, sure at least one of them would be impaled...
(7, 2d4=4+2=6 damage) With the massive horde of Darkspawn still approaching fast, you get to the frontlines, readying yourself directly behind the barricade. Right before the horde hit, you impale one directly through the barricades, covering your blade in tainted blood! Retreating backwards as a few darkspawn break through the barricade, you grip your longsword with both hands, deflecting the blow of a Hurlock and rebuking with a decapitation!
COME AND GET ME YOU COWARDS!!! hack at them as the crash into the barricade
(7, 2d4=6+2=8 damage) As the horde crashes into the barricade, you bring your trusty axe to bear! With a single swing, you split a Hurlock vertically down the head following up with a kick to bring it down! Moving away from it, Delion spots the ogre with it's back turned. Taking advantage of this, he gets a running start and leaps upon it's back, hacking into the back of its head and back with his axe!
Let loose fire on the horde.
(-6 MP. 5, 1d4=2+3=5 damage) Your staff seems to react to the darkspawn, vibrating rather violently in your hands, affecting your aim. Despite this, as a few of the horde draw close, you spray a cone of fire from the end of your staff, igniting the Hurlocks and Genlocks on fire! They panic for a few brief moments, screaming and yelling until they fall down to the ground, charred and dead.
ATTACK!
The horde now being considerably weakened (16/40 HP), something happens to make the situation even worse...Two darkspawn appear at the back of the horde, but they're...different. One is clad completely in black armor, with horns jutting out of the helm. The other has a face covered in rags, wielding a staff similar to Rician's...
Hurlock Alpha - The Hurlock Alpha, clad in it's black armor, surveys the battlefield, settling on (2) Owen! (6 vs 8-1) Owen raises his shield in time to block the creature's blade! Owen and the Hurlock trade blows for a minute, neither able to land a hit. The Alpha decides this is going nowhere and changes targets, knocking Owen to the ground with its shield and running towards another group of soldiers.
Hurlock Emissary - Letting loose a deep throaty laugh, it aims it's staff towards (3) Riccian! (-5 MP. 8+1, 7+1 vs 2) A dark black orb dances along the end of the staff, launching towards the elf and smacking him straight in the chest! Despite not being physically hurt, he begins suffering bouts of weakness, forced to drop to his knees due to them being unable to support his weight.
The Horde(8+1 vs 5-1, 3-1, 4, 8, 4-2, 1+1, 1, 6+1. 3) The remnants of the horde descend upon the army, inspired by the arrival of the Emissary and Alpha! Despite this, because of the
plot armor hate of the RNG goddess low number of darkspawn left, you and the rest of the troops keep them at bay.
Heroic offensive on Silvian/adwarf, ready heals as needed.
(-4 MP) Raising your staff above your head, you empower Silvian, surrounding him with a shining yellow glow! You can already feel the magic seeping away from your body, so you hope it'll be worth it. Amazingly, nobody seems to be terribly wounded yet, however you can't heal Riccian of his weakness with your current skills...
Silvian attacks the Darkspawn Horde with as many arrows, and as much force as possible.
You feel a rush of invigoration like you've never felt before, steadying your hands and letting you see the battle unfold in almost slow motion. Taking out an arrow, you aim towards the remains of the horde...(5, 1d4=3+2=5 damage) Letting your arrow fly, it strikes a Hurlock directly between the skull! Another shot hits a Genlock in the chest, stumbling it backwards!
Owen decided to attack the Ogre, trying to weaken it's armor
With most of the horde defeated in the initial charge, all that's left is the Alpha, the Emissary, the wounded ogre, and a few stragglers still fighting. You aim to finish off the ogre here and now...(8, 2d4x2=6+5=11 damage!) Charging directly through the remnants of the horde, you smack a Genlock clear out of your way, splattering the contents of its head over the grassy battlefield! As the Ogre turns towards Owen, he leaps into the air and slams his maul full-force into the skull of the ogre!
The ogre falls backwards to the ground, and Owen lands on top of it. Raising his maul for the final attack, the spiked end gets jammed straight through the ogre's tough forehead, killing it once and for all and leaving nothing behind but a blood spray! The remnants of the horde retreat backwards, but the two bosses remain.
Bonus - Due to Owen's reinforcing of the barricades, all the good guys have -2 damage taken for 1 more round of battle.
