The Necessity of Travel

@Emberskyes,@Ysolde,@GameMaster What's the consensus on your next move? Get down there while they're still under the effects of the plums, or wait to see what happens?

Irwin's makeshift truncheon (close, forceful) is readied and cleaned up a bit before you make your way into the well. You lower yourself down the long, narrow shaft, until finally, your feet manage to touch down on damp, slightly slick, stone. Just below your landing, the shaft ends in water, so the well isn't completely dry, but at some point in the past, this cave either opened up through the well shaft - or more likely, the cave was underwater and only relatively recently dried up enough to show itself.

The two lizards are sprawled rather uncomfortably a few yards away from the shaft, and one of them looks as though it's nursing its hip. As you drop in, they begin to rouse, but you've clearly caught them off guard.

Oxana's blade pierces the beast, but it's not finished off yet. It rears back and tries to twist its head down and around so it can sink its teeth into her side. Irwin slams his club rather ineffectually into the other one, not doing much damage but forcing it back so that Johnsan gets a good shot at it. It hisses and opens its maw defensively, ready to bite Irwin.

Irwin for his part, even though he knows the violence is ultimately necessary, just can't take it. His head spins as his club impacts, and he's forced to drop back, leaving himself open to attack.

Johnsan will continue to fire arrows into the monsters, screaming the whole time and trying hard not to back up or give any ground.

@testlum - are you meaning your post to be just the narrative of your roll, or is that meant to be that he's backing out of the fight?

@emberskyes - you've got Tatianna backing you up now, does that change your plan of attack?

The first lizard stops moving under Oxana's shield, but the other lunges for Johnsan, sinking its teeth into his hip and ragdolling him to the ground.

This may be the end for Johnsan*, but he's got a chance to hang in there IF you guys can take this other one out quick enough!
