The  door  opens  easily...and much faster, with the applied  spells.   the  Arrows rush in, they see....

  A Gnome has a  halfdressed Girl under his  arm and was moving towards the door..

  Another  gnome sits at the end of a Long Table, he is  drinking from a large tankard..he is not looking at the door just yet.

  On the Left side of the table  are 5 humans  and 1 catfolk, the Cat folk is female, and appears to be 'interested' in one of the  Humans.

  on the right side of the Table are 2 orcs,a darkelf and  another gnome...2 Human girls..all around 18 or so..are serving wine to the table...One of them Looks up as the Door  flies open and Luthien makes his offer.

 at the Far end of the room is  an Odd creature  that has  a mass of tenticles on its face, it his holding its head as if in pain and is Running to a Door at the back of the room...

  The Room is 40 feet wide....70 feet long, a door at the back  of the room.

............................

 Luthien's  charges in and  shouts his  words..The Gnome by the door looks up, dumbfounded, and drops the girl, who squeals..

  all the others in the  room look at the  Arrows, and rise from their seats...the  two servers, run to the walls..One of then shouts, " ISRA!"

  The Door is closing as the weird  person is slipped out the back...

Luthien, face to tentacles with great evil, immediately attacks the creature for which surrender is not an option.

Luthien tries to get to the Illithid as fast as he can, activating his mirror images along the way.

If he has a chance to strike at one of the beings as he goes, he checks for evil to determine who Tra wants struck down first...besides the obvious target.

Since the gnome's in the way, and he needs to let his allies in, he uses a mighty shield bash (or tries to) to send the gnome flying. His strength should be more then adequate to send a gnome from one end of the room to at least the table, if not beyond.

(Bull rush! Also, mirror image still going up)

Forward Chaps Myranda shouts as she charges into the room; moving to the left as they had planned and closing on the nearest human and slamming into him with shield and driving her longsword into him.

Anticipating Luthien action will be to head after the flayer, Justin presses forward, passing on the left of the Gnome, slashing at him as he does. Stay down Mistress... he cautions the female who was dropped by the Gnome.

In the hope of clearing the path of obstacles for the archers to target he charges the goblin seated at the table; smashing into it with his shield.

Seeing an enemy Catfolk in the room, Rolf turns his attentions to it.  Keeping to the plan, he keeps to using the bow, though he feels the desire to go after it more directly, to stain his blade with it's blood.

Diana charges into the room, bow ready.  She opens fire at the fist available target, before taking more careful aim at the gnome closest to her.  Once the arrows had been fired, she will draw her blade, and engage the closet enemy to her position.

Seeing the female catfolk, Lucy lets out a loud growl, challenging the female to a fight to the death.
She draws her blade and charges right at the female, letting nothing and no one get in her way.
Her first move is to leap at the female, and try to bite her in the neck.  Failing that, she will try to rip and tear with her claws.

  Luthien cuts the Gnome  down, before him, as he  runs to try and stop the  strange creature  from getting away...He is about  half way through the room now...

  Myra Moves towards  the closest Human, he is just drawing his Blade as her Blade slices into Him, he is gravely wounded  as he drags out his  longswrod

 Justin Slams  into the Goblin after  adding  an extra  cut to the dying  gnome. The Goblin is  slammed By the shiled  and   thrown to the opposite  side of the chAir, and to the Ground.

 Diana's first Arrow  hits the Human Next to the Human Myra  attacked, the second shaft, hits the Gnome next to him...then she charges  into the fray..

  Lucy's  Cry is  answered and the  two feline folk meat in the air as the elap at each other, they hit the  ground to the  west ( left) of the table, roiling about the ground, Biting  scratching and  stabbing

 Rolf"s  arrows Fly down the table,,,both hit a Human down near the end, He Jerks  out of the chair, that he was  trying to stand  from..he hits the ground...

 Ivy and Kree Fire  their  first shots at the Gnome , at the head of the table...Both Him, and the Gnome is Pinned to the chair  with  quivering arrows in his shoulder and  chest...the Next two arrow  fly past him hitting the door, Just as the  creature  fled behind it.

 Kree and Ivy  nock  more arrows to continue you their support of their attacking Comrades.

..................

 to attack  The  two Humans that are left..either  not wounded or not  engaged, drop back towards the door way, their Blades  ready, the Dark elf and Two Orc  try to intercept Luthien..

Luthien's taking point, so the resistance is expected.

But the thing is...there's not just one Luthien right now...there's several. Mirror images of the original.

"We're here to deal with you."

While 'we' refers to the Arrows, it could apparently refer to a whole crusade of valiant Knights that seem to fight as one. All of the Luthiens seems to attack his enemies. But his sword only bites once (or twice, depending.) Of the foes in front of him, the drow was the biggest problem, he'd deal with the orcs after that.

Deftly moving to one side Myranda sweeps her blade in an arch slicing the wounded human in front of her, as she spins around to face him and the fellow behind him trusting her blade forward in a deadly combination into the second human.

With the fight joined Justin methodically moves forward; thrusting his blade into the gnome, he'd knocked to the ground. Bypassing the fallen slaver he delivers a passing slash to the Dark Elf, on his right, as he moves towards the humans blocking the door.

Diana turned her attention to the ... thing running for the door.
"What the hell is that?" She mumbles to herself.

She then fires off two arrows at the thing, looking to at least slow it down.

Lucy spills to the ground, rolling with the female.  She looks for any kind of leverage she can get.  No matter how small.

If she's able to get some, she will push that advantage, and try to get a major hit in, all the while defending herself from the samething.

  Two More Arrows  from Diana thunk  into the door the creatue  slipped through..the  door is open by only a few inches now.

 The real Luthien  closes in on the door..he leaves the  body of a Human drooping to his knees, the  falling back...his weapon clatters  from his hand.

 Justin's  attacks hack down the Gnome, and wound the  Dark Elf. The DArk  elf  attacks with two Blades, the first misses badly, the second  cuts deeply into  Justin's shoulder, the Dark elf shouts" Praise CRAN!"

 Myra, manages   to Kill the first human she attacked, the second one hits her thigh,drawing blood.

  Diana, Kree , Ivy and Rolf enter the room, Isra  following themshut the door...bar it...

 Ivy sends  two arrows  into the first Orc, it  tumbles over the bench  Iit was standing from.


 Lucy and the  Cat woman  have rolled to the west wall, tearing, biting and clawing at each other,

Luthien continues fighting towards the door, hacking the bodies of whoever happens to be standing between him and the door out of the way.

That Flayer is still top priority. His mirror images continue menacing everyone else, even if they can't do damage.

Brie had just flopped down on the ground.  Orin was securely tied to the tree near her but could easily reach the water bucket.

She was glad to be in an area of safe passage. She'd been invited before but other matters had taken a slight precedence.  Now after several days travel and a couple of misleading trails, she could certainly say she was on the right path.  Having ran into quite a few notable signs, she could rest a few before heading out.  Stone had gotten her this far, but the last skirmish with orcs left her without a riding companion.  Carrying his map of the area was the only guidance she had until the next town.

Laying her head down briefly, Orin kept pawing at the ground near her, dust flying into her face.

Looking up at Orin she'd heard but attempted to disregard the fighting up the hill a several yards away, wanting to simply rest.  She shook her head, giving Orin a wincing look of regret for not resting sooner.

Alright alright already, she said and stood up looking in the distance where the sounds came from and estimated how quickly she could get there.  Being unseen was no problem at least not as she got closer.

Stay she said to Orin in elvish.  She reached into the side saddle and rummaged through it quickly withdrawing a vial and her daggers as she tightened up the satchel and made quick strides towards the sound.

She came up quickly to a tunnel in the mountain and louder sounds echoing against the stone of the mountain walls, favoring a fight within.  This was not anything new for her, but her heart always raced and palms sweaty at the anticipation of it all.

Reaching the tunel entrance she placed her back to it, downed the liquid in the vial, a small amount at that and placed it in a pocketed fold of her pants. Dagger in hand, she turned to see a creature heading her way  into the tunnel.  The spell hadn't completely came into effect so It saw her and quickly turned on its heels heading opposite her own entry through the tunnel.  Seeing a pathway intersect into the was where the fighting was coming from.

Weapons readied she went ahead for the creature as she made quick strides down the tunnel, a familiar frame and voice had her taking repeated glimpses into the side room and smiling brightly as she vanished in thin air and proceeded towards the creature.

Justin turned to face the Dark Elf a grin on his face. Let us dance then darkling he taunted as he trust his blade towards her.

Both Humans near her had been felled, allowing Myranda to use the opportunity to quickly change to bow. With a flurry of activity she changes weapons and snaps two shafts into the remaining human as she moves in support of Luthien

   In the rush and all out  attack by the Arrows. the  enemy is all but wiped out..The Dark Elf  with Justin drops her  weapons  and screams 'I YIELD!

 Myra Brings  down  the last Human.

 Lucy and the  other Cat woman both  lay on the Ground..Lucy is wounded..the catfolk is dead.

 the Last Orc  drops his weapon and tries to surrender..By IVY sends  two shafts into the hapless  creatue...

 Kree Looks at Ivy for a Moment..Ivy says,OOOPs..it  appears i was in error....

 With a shrug Kree says.I..you should be more careful Next time... Justin..do what you will  with  my Dark Cousin...  then he  Motions with His Bow,Everyone else..sesarch the  dead..and..make sure they are dead....

t eh two women Run to Isra, when they reach her they ..bow.

 Luthien is at the door..what does he wish to do.

"The leader got away...Captain, I wish to pursue."

This is still a military unit, and Luthien's not going to charge off without the Commander's okay.

  Kree waves at the Door,..Go..take anyone with you who wishes to go..we will hold this room for a bit...do not outstrip our chances to catch up..aye?

 Then he turns  and Looks at Isra, who seems a bit  non-plussed at the  ladies before her.

In reply to fight (msg # 57):

Myranda quickly crosses to the Lucy, giving her a friendly grin. You couldn't have scratched her eyes out first. she teases while kneeling to assess her condition. Glancing towards Kree I'll attend to any who Arrow who has been injured if you'd gather around

ooc could I get an idea of the injuries everyone has taken. Myranda will do this quickly as she suspects they'll need to head after the Illithiad asap.
After she'd cast any necessary Cures on the party, she'll recover the arrows she'd felled the human with.

  Lucy is the only one who is...badly injured. The Cuts, and Bites are deep and Many..but...she still gave more then she got.(( she is at 2 HPs))

 Ivy  is  searching the Bodies and..with a quick move of his dagger, Makes sure they stay dead.

In reply to Myra (msg # 61):

ooc Can Myranda assess approximately how much healing Lucy will need

Luthien nods.

"Right. Anyone who wants to help me hunt down the abomination, speak now, and let's go."
