Dies the Fire

You guys really need to remove the 'recruiting' tag so people like me don't post on this thread thinking you are still recruiting :-)

"Yeeee Haaah!"  Aleister yells in the face of his last tormentor. Stab, slash.

OOC:  Is the opponent Sarah is in melee with down?  I assume so.  If not, she'll keep using Gramps and I'll reroll........  Okay need to work on my pre-coffee reading comprehension.  Melee it is.

Round 4

Backing up a little to get some distance, Sarah takes up her bow once more.  Hidden by her cloud of darkness, she draws back her string with care.

Attack 1: 16 Damage: 6

Attack 2: 15 Damage: 11

 Determined to finish the goon that has struck her, Sarah strikes back from her darkness.

Attack 1: 24 Damage: 7

Attack 2: 24 Damage: 12

Aleister swings round and slices and dices the knight.

"Can of tuna, add mayonnaise and you get a night snack," Aleister sings.  (which should do some damage too)

Em continues his melee. Will attack MAA10 twice. However if MAA10 falls from the first attack he will then switch to MAA11 for the second.

ATT1: 17 DMG: 10
ATT2: 14 DMG: 11

As you are dealing with your captives you see the fleeing serfs peering back through the trees

RD 5

Aleister will disengage, consuming goodberries (12) as he does.

"Hey, you all running for the woods," he yells. "We mean you no harm, we're here to rescue you."

Persuation   10

Drum roll please....

Commanding his Steed to stop, Thomas looks down at the surrendered armsmen in disdain. "As much as it pains me to say it, while I do not parley with your kind, I will accept honest surrender." Not showing any visible injury to either him or his ebony steed, Thomas watches over the captives as the former slaves are coaxed into view, crossbow loaded with another fire-wreathed arrow. Upon hearing Aleister call out, he grins, saying in a normal tone of voice "Aren't you a little short for a storm trooper?"

Sarah isn't certain if leaving the men at arms alive to tattle is a good idea.  She will take the opportunity to question them under magic once they've spoken to the fleeing serfs.  She keeps her bow at the ready, just in case.

“How about a courts martial for the knight?” Aleister says.  “Have the folks they were chasing sit on the jury.”
