Roll for initiative, post your results. Once done, I'll post a list of the order of actions for combat, and we'll begin.

"Actually, if you could do that on that side of the ship, and raise it up ever so slightly, that would be a great help!" Iro says cheerfully, pointing at the sagging side of the Sky Burrow. When no response is given, Iro adopts a strange looking stance at first glance, but he looks ready.

20:00, Today: Iro Swordhand rolled 13 using 1d20 + 3.  Initiative.

At the sight of the assailants fanning out around them, Beloc shouts "Cowards!", as he starts to rap his weapon against his shield as an intimidation tactic.

19:44, Today: Beloc S'Viscus rolled 10 using 1d20+3.  Initiative .

Two of the acolytes lunge for Iro, and another goes for Beloc.

17:55, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 8 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 1 attack roll.
17:55, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 7 using 1d20+2.  Acolyte 2 attack roll.
17:55, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 16 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 3 attack roll.


Iro artfully dodges the incoming knife strikes, letting them breeze past him.

Beloc let's a knife strike ping on his ironwood shield.

Iro retaliates against the nearest would-be stabber with a punch. The Acolyte dodges, however.

19:08, Today: Iro Swordhand rolled 8 using 1d20+4.  Attack roll.

The fourth acolyte follows up behind his cohort taking a stab at Beloc. The blocked blow of the 3rd acolyte positions the 3rd to get in the way of the 4th, completely fouling his attack.

20:24, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 9 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 4 attack roll.

Beloc ignores the feeble attacks from the first two acolytes, and charges towards one still dismounting from the chains. He raises his shield into a ramming position and slams into the unprepared defender.

21:24, Today: Beloc S'Viscus rolled 10 using 1d20+5.  Bull rush STR check.

As Beloc races to meet the other attackers, Sheeva bears down on the last one that attempted to strike her master. Her teeth gnash into the acolytes legs for a substantial critical hit [9 DMG].

21:28, Today: Sheeva rolled 23 using 1d20+3.  Bite on acolyte 4.
21:35, Today: Sheeva rolled 9 using 2d6+2.  Bite damage on acolyte 4.

21:34, Today: Sheeva rolled 11 using 1d20+1.  Trip attempt on acolyte 4.

Acolyte 5 is completely taken off guard by Beloc's brazen charge. Beloc slams in to the unprepared enemy and sends him stumbling back hard; so hard that the acolyte catches the waist high railing and flips completely over it, sending him tumbling down screaming.

22:31, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 5 using 1d20+1.  Acolyte 5 Apposing Strength Check.

The adjacent acolyte 6 take the opportunity of Beloc's proximity and strikes, but a weak wrist from a sports injury when he was younger comes back to haunt him, and he nearly drops the dagger he holds.

22:35, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 4 using 1d20+2. Acolyte 6 attack roll.

Acolyte 4 feels a searing pain as Sheeva's fangs sink deep into his calf.

In a fit of pain the acolyte flings his leg forward and sends Sheeva rolling.

22:40, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 22 using 1d20+2.  Acolyte 4 Apposing Strength Check.

Sheeva roll reflex save or tumble check

Sheeva hops to her feet and shakes her head a few times, working her jaw.

21:43, Today: Sheeva rolled 13 using 1d20+5.  reflex save.

Acolyte 6 recovers though, and takes another stab at Beloc, aiming for a space between armor plates. He fails miserably... again. Beloc almost has to stifle laughing at him.

22:49, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 5 using 1d20+2.  Acolyte 6 attack roll.

Gazra moves in on acolyte 4 and crashes down on him as he flings Sheeva away. It connects with the acolytes shoulder resulting in a crunching sound.

22:51, Today: Gazra rolled 21 using 1d20+5.  Gazra attack roll.
22:56, Today: Gazra rolled 7 using 1d8+3.  Gazra - Morning Star.

The remaining acolyte 7 slashes wildly at Beloc, a muffled scream coming from behind his mask.
The attack lands but only manages a scratch on the side of Beloc's helmet.

23:01, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 15 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 7 attack roll.

Acolyte 1
Acolyte 2
Acolyte 3
Iro
Acolyte 4
Beloc & Sheeva
[DEAD] Acolyte 5
Acolyte 6
Gazra
Acolyte 7

Acolytes 1 and 2 continue trying to stab Iro. Both miss their strikes.

23:06, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 9 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 2 attack roll.
23:06, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 11 using 1d20+2.  Acolyte 1 attack roll.

Acolyte 3 stabs at Gazra since Beloc has moved out of arms reach. He ducks as Gazra is swinging his morning star down at 4 and plunges his dagger between plates that protect Gazra's hip.

23:08, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 22 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 3 attack roll.
23:09, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 7 using 1d4+3.  Acolyte 3 - Dagger.

Dodging swiftly, Iro swings again, hoping to catch one in the throat. "Guys, I have an idea! But we need to clear out this rabble first!" He shouts, hoping to be heard over the din of battle.

23:19, Today: Iro Swordhand rolled 16 using 1d20+4.  Attack roll.
23:38, Today: Iro Swordhand rolled 5 using 1d6. Damage.

Shiaran darts in behind the acolytes engaged with Iro.  As Iro stabs one, she stabs the other in the back with her katana, a precise strike that draws a splash of blood.  She does not withdraw the blade, choosing instead to stay with the attacker as he tries to turn to face her, using the blade as added torque to compensate for her greater radius of turning.

[Private to GM: Shiaran takes 10 for a total of 15 vs. Acolyte.
Shiaran rolls 4 damage on 1d10 and 4 damage on 1d6 for a total of 8 damage.]

Acolyte 1 stumbles back clutching his throat while acolyte 2 howls in pain at being skewered bu Shiaran. Icy rime starts to form around where the blade pierces him.

Acolyte 4 grunts heavily as his left shoulder is likely crushed by Gazra's blow, and starts to slump down. In one last feeble attempt at survival, he swings his dagger in vain at Gazra

10:22, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 7 using 1d20+3.  Acolyte 4 attack roll.

Up above, a lone figures leaps off the edge of the enemy airship and sails down the chains.

Vaguely aware of the shadow descending upon him, Beloc brings here weapon to bear on the acolyte near him.

12:45, Today: Beloc S'Viscus rolled 20 using 1d20+6.  Attack on acolyte 6.
12:46, Today: Beloc S'Viscus rolled 8 using 1d6+3.  Damage on acolyte 6.

Acolyte six feebly tries to duck a slash from Beloc, but Beloc is too fast for him. The blade bites deep across the side of the acolytes face and head, knocking his mask off.  A bitter, twisted face is revealed underneath. Scabs and scars cover it. The young man couldn't be more than 18 or so, but his disfigurements make him look much older. His eyes give away his youth more than anything. Laugh lines and crows feet have yet to grace him with passing years.

He staggers back and drops his dagger, clutching the side of his face. Blood streams from underneath his hand and beneath his finger tips. Looking at Beloc, he says "Do it. Release me".

Removing his morning star from acolyte 4's shoulder as he slumps down to one knee, Gazra whips it around to swing at acolyte 3.

Seeing 4 get pummeled however has caused acolyte 3 to be wary. He quickly steps back as he see's Gazra start to swing around.

00:32, Today: Gazra rolled 8 using 1d20+5.  Gazra attack roll.
