<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Ben'Dar veers to the west, sliding in behind
Unali and Cholan and slowing briefly, if necessary, to allow Unali and Cholan to
pass him. Having heard the scream and seeing the stumbling,
bleeding Cholan heading south, Ben'Dar decides some help is in
order. Motioning them urgently toward the southern end of the
room, he shouts "Go! Go! Go!"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Ben'Dar will fall in behind them, keeping in
between them and the hounds. If one of those hounds tries to take another
bite out of Cholan, Ben'Dar will offer it the business end of his spear
instead. :)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>As Ben'Dar continues to retreat to the south,
he keeps watch over his shoulder. If one of the hounds charges in his
direction, he will whirl around and attack, trying to buy time for the injured
party members who are retreating in front of him.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Ben'Dar will also keep an eye on Farseeker, who
is basically surrounded by hounds at this point and heavily injured if I
remember correctly. If Farseeker stops to fight or gets knocked down or
something, Ben'Dar will dash back and help him fight off the hounds. If
that happens, he will also call to Kasha and motion to him to help as well,
since he's still north of Ben'Dar's position.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>I know there are a lot of "ifs" there...
sorry.........</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>OOC question for the group... Are we
running away completely (i.e. thru the stone/metal door and wedge it shut
behind us and get the heck out of here) or are we going to try some kind of
combined defense at the southern entrance to this room? I'm sorta leaning
toward running away completely after seeing how that dragon swatted Jordi
up against the wall and how it seems to be totally unconcerned
with the punishment Kasha was dealing out to it...
Thoughts?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>OOC Question for Jordi... I have no idea
if Jordi can escape his predicament or not on his own. I know you've got
magic - think you can escape or do we need to be moving back toward you to
create a distraction and/or give you some assistance? Ben'Dar certainly
has no idea, but I'm sure others (Neva?) would know and might direct us
back up there if they think Jordi has no way of escaping on his
own.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>OOC question for GM... Are these sorts of
OOC questions/conversations encouraged or should I just stick to what
Ben'Dar can actually say in-game? Just wondering what's preferred.
Thanks!</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
