This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
OOC - Okay, I think you forgot to mention that ...
Farnakees is keeping the attention of two whole rat swarms all by his lonesome. The swarm surrounding him attacks - 11, 9 damage if they hit.
The second swarm also tries to munch on goliath flesh - 16, 11 damage if they hit.
And the rats continue to make no headway against the mighty goliath. Farnakees is the definition of tankiness; a pity his party does not see this as he struggles alone in his thankless task.
OOC: Sigh. It was worth a shot. Sword and fist then.
Burning Hands damage: 5
OOC: Burning Hands 5? I thought it was 7.
OOC: My damage rolls are terrible!
OOC: Alianna, I can't see the numbers, but was that a 3d6 roll? The number seems ... low?
Damage: 12
Lathalas whoops, "Burn, you monsters!"
Mithrokk does his people's Dance of Joy (to the tune of Blue Oyster Cult's "Burning for You")
OOC: Mithrokk has a cousin...named Larry.
OOC: So we have damaged 3 rat swarms/groups. Nice.
OOC: This cousin often has ... A Plan.
Who has a brother named Darryl and another brother named Darryl. :-)
OOC: What's the current year in Dale Reckoning? (Updating Lathalas' background.)
OOC: A Plan or Appleton? :-)
OOC - One of the silver-backed swarms takes 12 fire damage; the other takes 6.
OOC - Lathalas is in J10, correct?
OOC: G8. Defending the mages.

OOC: post 458: Lathalas retreats to G8 and readies an action to attack hostile creatures who come within melee range.
The two swarms of silver-backed rats attack. The heavily-damaged swarm run around Lathalas's feet ...
OOC - You took a ready action, so make your attack rolls on this bunch.
... then move past him to swarm and attack Rastaris.
The second swarm of silver-backed rats also mill around Lathalas's feet, but aim their teeth and claws at Rastaris.
First silver rat swarm - 16; I'll roll damage after I see if Lathalas hits it or not.
Second silver rat swarm - 16, 4 damage with a hit.
OOC - Looks like the first group of rats hits; let's see if Lathalas thins down their number, which will affect their damage.
OOC: we nevertheless appreciate his
sacrifice... I mean ... Effort.OOC: awww shucks....
