"Faroe," cries out, using the wrong name, as his companion is left a husk of a man by the stirge. He swings recklessly at the bloated flying anteater.

Somewhere in the Keep, Bofum Dor feels a surge of anxiety, as if something terrible just happened. But he does not know what yet...

"Ezra! Farem! Petronius!" Delfarious cries as suddenly half of their number are on the ground. "No! Fight, Morgan, fight, Kraagor! Darlene! To us, fight back to back!"
OOC:
Attacking with his staff while trying to get in a defensive formation!

Edit: Sigh. =]

Kraagor and Darlene still can't hit the quick-winged stirges, but Delfarious slaps one through the air! Morgan recognizes the need of the dying man next to her and swings her sword at stirge 2 sucking Petronius's blood. Petronius attacks his stirge as well. Both miss their attacks.
OOC:
Technically Delfarious is in melee where movement isn't as free. In the next round, he can step over Ezra's body to be back-to-back with Darlene at I5 or around Petronius to J4.

EDIT: Which stirge is Delfarious attacking? Morgan will also declare melee movement in case I5 is still vacant next round.

I'd like to use my black/gold character killers for this game. They work just as well against monsters.

Round Four
OOC:
If you guys are switching dice, I would use my heavy metal ones. The PCs are dropping just as hard lol. Rolling initiative. . . .
Stirge 3 pops from Farem's lifeless husk and speeds at Kraagor. Stirge 1 continues to circle around Morgan, who bats it away with her shield. Stirge 2 finishes off Petronius before getting slapped through the air by Delfarious. Dazedly, it buzzes off with a belly full of blood. Stirge 4 makes another pass at Darlene but only scuffs her leather armor.
OOC:
Stirge 2 is retreating from melee. For this round, you get a +2 attack bonus against it. The party is now up.

Stepping over and past his downed companion, Delfarious allows the blood-laden insert-bird-thing to fly away. Instead, he darts in and tries to swat the one harrying Darlene from the air!

Round Five

Stirge 1 dives at Morgan again. Stirge 3, fat on blood, makes a lazy attack at Kraagor then prepares to flee next round. Stirge 4 attacks Darlene again. Morgan sidesteps and parries stirge 1, while the other two miss, no doubt drunk on blood or desperate from hunger.
OOC:
Lucky rolls! The party is up.
