Reszket, you've barely finished speaking before you see two elven swordsman rush towards you from the direction you came. One has silvery hair in long braids while the other has a brown hair coif that seems to be styled similarly to the Baron himself.
Azarx- you've come across the brown-haired elven man before. How do you know him?
From the opposite side of the hall, the 3 archers (1 human male, 1 human female, and 1 halfling female), now out of arrows, have dropped their bows and pulled out short and long swords and are coming towards the door.
Reszket and
Rurgosh- the doorway can just barely fit the 2 of you, but it's a tight squeeze. Are you attempting to block the way? Who's standing where?
OOC:
When you stand in defense of a person, item, or location under attack, roll+Con. On a 10+, hold 3. On a 7–9, hold 1. So long as you stand in defense, when you or the thing you defend is attacked you may spend hold, 1 for 1, to choose an option:
▶ Redirect an attack from the thing you defend to yourself
▶ Halve the attack’s effect or damage
▶ Open up the attacker to an ally giving that ally +1 forward against the attacker
▶ Deal damage to the attacker equal to your level
OOC:
Also, you typically roll Defy Danger when you're putting yourself in a dangerous situation such as stepping into melee with another character to make an attack, or dodging arrows in order to grab an item without getting hit. If you're not sure what to roll, describe your action in detail and I'll let you know which roll will work best for that action.
