"Thank you Lysander but I don't plan on being close enough to those creatures to require your blessings."
Magical energies begin to coalesce around me as I consider which spell to cast.

"I believe you, Grizel and Katerina would be best served with your holy shield" Sindar tells Lysander, then backs up a few steps, looking to find some concelment when the melee begins. He trains his crossbows on the gates, ready to spring on the first unfortunate beast through the gates.

Ireena beckons Sindar behind the mansion door, stepping out to join the fray in the back ranks. She takes a ready stance to attack a hostile creature with her dagger, and looks steady as a trained warrior.

A fell creature breaks out of the mist, but it was not the wolf you were expecting. A much larger, faster, more monstrous creature darts towards the group, choosing Faelor as an obvious target. Sindar launches a bolt from behind the hefty door, which implants into the creature, a fine shot considering the crowd of his companions close by.

The worg snaps it's powerful jaws at Faelor, sensing his magical prowess, but misses in it's blind rage.

Steel is spooked, being pressed against a wall at the start of the engagement, and darts behind Alastor, keeping an eye on Lysander.

Lysander moves toward Steel and says a prayer, casting a spell. "Holy Saga, guide us to victory and show us the true path!' His holy symbol fills with a brilliant white light which Lysander dips his fingers into. As he pulls them out and levels his hand at the worg, the light is like liquid and his fingers glow. At the conclusion of his prayer the light coalesces and shoots out in a beam of brilliant energy searing the wolfs fur.

Iskandil snarls and steps towards the creature. At the same moment, he changes, his clothes and gear seem to be absorbed into the form of the dire wolf that stands where he stood a moment earlier. Still snarling, his teeth snap at the creature that is attacking.

Iskandil wrestles the worg down in a great display of strength and finesse. A quick flash of light strikes the same target, rendering it stunned and lifeless. Another Worg emerges from the mist, blindly following it's pack leader into what could be a slaughter. It chooses Iskandil as it's opponent, seeing him, a great beast, as the dominant threat, sinking it's jaws in.

Ireena darts sideways across the battlefield, dodging Iskandil and swiping the worg with her dagger, making a skilful lunge into the worg's muscle tissue.

Two more Worgs pounce from the mists, fiendishly lunging at any threats they perceive. Iskandil takes another bite wound from a second challenge (total 23 damage), but the other worg is blinded as Grizel unleashes the bane spell.

You hear the pounding of claws further out in the mist - it is certain that this is not the full pack.

Alastor charges the nearest worg and bludgeons it with his hooves.
OOC:
Worg must succeed on a DC 14 Str save or be knocked prone. If the target is knocked prone, Alastor can take a
bonus action this round to make another hooves attack. Rolling that bonus attack now just in case.
I'm not certain which worgs have been affected by Grizel's Bane spell. Those would have 1d4 penalty on attacks and saves.

The worg's foul breath and clamping jaws caused me to retreat as much as I could from the beast.

Katerina jumps into battle as well. She cries out, "Ireena, move back to cover!" before launching herself at the closest worg. Best to kill one beast with the dire wolf that was thankfully on her side before moving onto the others that had arrived. "Everyone else, work together! Kill them together!"

Even as she shouts she begins to enter her battle trance and can feel herself limber as she draws her swords and then dances about flitting her attacks in where they will hurt the worgs the most.

Katerina moves up to the worg, drawing her swords as part of her move, and then uses the Attack action for two attacks followed by a bonus action off hand attack.

Alastor turns away from the worg to get some distance, and thunders towards the nearest worg. His full weight is used to maximum effect, and the worg suffers massive damage from the assault, unable to get back up again.

Another worg emerges from the mist, veering left to stick with the pack, taking a bite of Ireena, who remains powerfully composed. Hotay freaks and tries to pull the cart around the side of the building.

Faelor steps away carefully, weary of being marked, to make way for Katerina, who makes three successful piercing jabs. The worg ducks to the ground and snarls.

Another worg emerges through a fold of mist, squaring off with Alastor, making a successful bite attack.

Bleeding badly, Iskandil throws his wolfish form against the attacking worgs. His teeth snap viciously. ((Since I get advantage from pack tactics against any of the 3 adjacent to me, I'll go after whichever isn't debuffed, preference shown to the one in the middle))

On a hit, DC 13 strength save or prone.

Sindar downs the worg with a smooth sniper shot. (Don't forget to count out your ammunition - you receive half back if you spend 1m to search the battlefield after each fight)

Steel falls back, not comfortable in the constant thick mist, staying close to Lysander but keeping distance from the fray.

Iskandil wrestles the (east) worg to the ground, returning to position as another holy light strikes his foe.

Ireena hears the call and disengages from the enemy: "the fight is yours. I will see to your beast". She retreats west and places a gentle hand on hotay's mane.

Worg 1 (left) appears to follow, but instead circles Iskandil to flank, evidently feeling him as the main threat. He is able to wrench the dire wolf's ankle.

Iskandil Direwolf form -32/37hps. Noted for my own record keeping. Healing not a priority, since if they drop me to zero I revert back to human form. Yay Wild Shape!
Jul 23, 2015 9:40 am
Heeding Katerina's call for a more concerted offense, Grizel turns to rally towards her companions, but Alastor, reading his master's intentions, is quicker. The warhorse charges the downed worg.
OOC:
*Alastor Trampling Charge vs the downed Worg 3. I don't know if he automatically gets his bonus attack (because the worg is already prone) or if Worg 3 still gets a chance to avoid the bonus attack by making its DC 14 Strength saving throw vs being knocked prone.
*Alastor draws Worg 6's opportunity attack so Grizel can move freely.

Worg 3 suffers massage damage and death under the heavy, trampling hooves.
