Grimbo slices at the cultist's throat.

[Private to Narrator: Yeah, but thrust/imp does less damage than what I rolled for swing/cut. Also is only reach C, even with a large knife. And, for that matter, impale only does x1 on limbs. Still I'll take the gift!

Rolled another minimum damage, but at least this one is x2 -- 2 cutting to the neck.

18:52, Today: Grimbo rolled 2 using 1d6+1.  Cut to neck (x2).
18:47, Today: Grimbo rolled 11 using 3d6.  AOA:Strong vs Neck 13.]

Jareth steps back and takes in the whole room, somewhat ignoring the combat now that the cultists are mostly dealt with.

"If t'ey ain't dead, don't kill 'em.  Yet.  Hard to question t'e dead about valuables an kidnap victims," he says distractedly.

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 38):

Charlene steps into the spot Vacated by the retreating Jareth
I guess that makes sense, but you shouldn't give them your back, boss. "
She shifts her spear to simultaneously threaten the groin kicked cultist on the ground and the othet, bleeding from his throart and arm.
"Don't make a sound!"

In reply to Charlene Le Poire (msg # 39):

Despite the spear, the cultist with the bleeding arm and throat laughs, and pulls the hooked blade from his cross
necklace, and cuts his own throat.

The groin kicked, face smashed cultist  reaches for his as well...

Grimbo stomps on the man's wrist.

In reply to Grimbo (msg # 41):

Charlene cuts through the cord holding the cross with her spearpoint, scratching him, and g4abs the weapin/symbol.

Brodak walks on the man's chest to get over him

OOC:  What's the room look like?  If this is a room and not just a crowded bit of corridor.

Mario continues to mentally kick himself for getting injured, as he watches the right hand way.

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 45):

This is a corridor 4 yards wide and maybe ten yards in either direction.

Brodak moves toward the end of the corridor, shield up and axe ready ... what does he see?

In reply to Brodak (msg # 47):

Ahead, there is an intersection, and also an opening on the right just before the intersection.

Jareth seeing the tunnel continues and Brodak has it in hand, crouches to examine the wounded (and probably dead or dying cultists).

"Charlene, keep an eye on Groiny t'ere," he indicates the one Brodak kicked in the jubblies, "I gonna see if either t'ese two be salvagable."


OOC:
Triaging, checking to see if either are savable.  Also removing their cross knives as he does so and sliding their dropped maces away from the groin kicked cultist.

19:58, Today: Jareth Mooncalled rolled 9 using 3d6.  Diagnosis 13: The throat cut cultist.
19:57, Today: Jareth Mooncalled rolled 12 using 3d6.  Diagnosis 13: The chest cleaved cultist.

Brodak stops short of the opening on the right and listens.

OOC: Narrator, could we please get an update on where everyone is relative to each other and the respective intersections?

OOC: Mario is still standing in the corridor to the right of the stairwell door, watching for intruders from that direction.

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 52):

OOC:  Sorry Mario, didn't mean to leave you and Nodwin hanging out alone,  Just figured I'd stop an ambush before it could get formed.

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 53):

This is why I asked the Narrator for a global update, so we all get it all at once :)

In reply to Grimbo (msg # 54):

OOC:  Now that I've successfully split the party (and Brodak sort of split of a third way) we can get it from all sides at once (and from the stairs too)!  I like the way you think...

Brodak is only a few step past Jareth.

In reply to Brodak (msg # 56):

Brodak is two yards ahead of Jareth, who stands by two very
dead cultists, and one semi conscious one held at bay by
Charlene's spear.  Between  them and Mario, watching the far
end of the hall are arrayed the others.

[Private to Brodak: you can hear faint chanting]

Nodwin was hauling the dead cultists from the first group, up the stairs.

OOC:  Copy.  Jareth will switch to tying the semi conscious fellow up and then bandaging his wound.

01:45, Today: Jareth Mooncalled rolled 12 using 3d6.  Knot-Tying 6 (default).
Well that went terribly...

01:46, Today: Jareth Mooncalled rolled 7 using 3d6.  First Aid 15.
Much better.  Hopefully he won't bled out from his scratch.

OOC: Thank you! I'm going for recovering another FP.

Grimbo sits and rests while Nodwin does the grisly work.

Brodak turns and waves at the others behind him.. then motions to his ear and the open hallway.
