At first Eryn thought that the clattering sound in the darkness was a skeleton's knife being dropped as it fell, but a moment later she saw Ilura retreat, blade no longer in hand.
Although his attack was effective in reducing their foe to a pile of bones, Marcus had placed himself in harm's way to do so. Eryn leapt forward towards the second skeleton, interrupting its assault and giving it less of an opening to strike. Its horrible claws bore down upon their shields with unrelenting fervor, however, and the fighter could tell that Marcus was struck by bony fingers at least once during the scuffle. How bad it was, she could not tell, but he kept standing and so she stood her ground as well.
More magic from Hiran peppered the antlered skeleton. Eryn couldn't help but be impressed. Their weapons barely scratched its bones, but magic seemed to do the trick. She could see the creature's eyes flicker. Was the magic destabilizing the spell that kept it alive somehow?
Seeing a chance to finish it off, Eryn brought her spear to rest on her shield's edge, and thrust it forwards towards the deer skull in front of her. The tip had been fashioned to penetrate human armor, but she had a feeling it could shatter human bones as well.
I use my Hold to protect Marcus from the skeleton's attack, halving the damage he will recieve.
quote:
Eryn rolled 12 using 2d6+2. Hack and Slash at skeleton.
Eryn rolled 2 using 1d10. Deal damage to skeleton.
Eryn rolled 8 using 1d10. Re-roll damage (Human Fighter move).
I don't want to mess up again when I got such a good attack roll, so I'll use my damage re-roll here. Result: 8 damage (2 piercing).
