Titus turns to face the fanatic and locks eyes just as the spell washes over him.
Wisdom saving throw: 9
Edit: Titus urges his body forward, but finds he cannot move a muscle as he struggles to overcome the spell. He sees Morph being attacked by the fanatic, his mind grips with fear... but then he hears Mal’s booming words cut across the battlefield... Titus knew they had to Get Schwifty.

Awwwwww... Yeeeeaaaaah...
Titus charges at Fanatic F4 and throws his shield into the man. The big bronze Dragonborn puts all his weight into the slam, hoping to bounce this creep off the wall with enough force to cause him to defecate upon the ground. His Battleaxe comes crashing down soon after.
Titus continues his assault on the Fanatic (F4), using his shield to attempt to knock him to the ground, following quickly with a vicious slash of his axe across his body.
He positions himself next to Zaku, and falls into the Phalanx formation he learned from his times in the legion.
(OOC: Titus will be ready to impose disadvantage on any attacks made against Zaku using his protection ability)

While wielding a shield and a creature you can see attacks a target other than you within 5 ft., you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll.
Morph moves behind Maland then targets the area between the Fanaticsand Cultistsfighting Titusand Zaku.
Taking a deep breath, Morphtakes out his crystal focus and utters an arcane word with a twist of his hand, his eyes flaring with light.
At the location he targeted, wisps of fire being to coalesce into a large sphere.
Move: Head south one square, to be able to see the space between F3, F4 and C3
Action: Cast Flaming Sphere at target location attempting to get F3, F4 and C3 inside the 15ft area of danger - Creates a 5ft sphere of fire that threatens everyone within 5ft (so 15ft area of danger) - If any creature end its turn within 5ft of the sphere, they must make a Dex Save DC13 - On a failed save they take 2d6 fire damage and half that damage on a success - If I move the sphere on my turn and ram it into a target, that target must make a save, and all movement of the sphere end.

Rethan cries out in pain from the fanatic's spell (stupid 22, leaving me unable to shield it away). Hearing the pained sound, Midnight jumps on the fanatics shoulder to distract him before bounding away again. Rethan takes advantage of the fanatics distraction to slash at him with his glaive, twirling it around once again to strike with the butt of the weapon as well.
