Maeriks
Round X3 (partial)

Reeling from the pain, Maeriks tries to stand ground a little longer and strike out at an enemy threatening his friend and his clanswomen. Alas, his body fails him. Undergoing early signs of physiological shock, Maerik's reflexes are suffering, his muscles not responding. The Locust Spear misses the Ulathi.Still holding position to try to help before fleeing, Maeriks faces off the opponents yet. He is wobbly, but still standing as his allies strive to break through.

Movement and any Bonus Actions or Reactions still available X R3.

RETROACTIVE INSERT

BrynBryn slashes out at the Glaaki pawns surrounding him. He is doing everything he can to hold the line, as there is little other choice.

Attack 2: Kukri (off hand) v. G17

Glaakieou
Round X3


The slug pawn madmen stubble and spasm in a stupor.

Rhone
Round X3

Nearly overwhelmed with all that is going on, Rhone looks in all directions - at Sine and Casidhe seeking Aisling and Muirne, at Laoise laying on the floor bleeding from a head wound, at the two leather-faced madmen who are faltering for the moment but still only a few feet from her, back across the room on the other side of the throne where Hinka spins the bullroarer and her mother is bleeding from her nose as she struggles to stand.

Then Rhone looks back out in the middle of the aisle to see her friends bogged down in a sea of obstructing enemies - she sees Maeriks bleeding and stumbling, struggling to hold up his guard as he fights on - she sees the Deep Ones wrapping their pale arms and webbed hands around Doirind and Boann.

Rhone's face is filled with anguish and worry, her teeth locked together and tears welling up in her eyes.

She reaches down in her bag. She pulls out the knife, glides between the two stumbling Glaakieou, and screams a battle cry as she charges into the mass of combatants in the center of the aisle.

Movement.
Attack U1 with dagger

Rhone glides under Maeriks and strikes at the Ulathi ahead of him and blocking the way of Ivor and the women. Rhone's dagger dives into the creatures liver. It falls to the floor dying as Rhone jerks the blade free.
She yells out in rage, and fear, tears rolling out of the corner of her eyes.

Wrapping up Round X3

Ivor and Maeriks may have Reactions.
Bryn has all Action available.

That will be pretty much do it I think before shift to Round X4.
I think that one is Do or Die.

Laoise
R X3

Death Save 1

Maeriks
R X3

Deep One U2
Round X3 (cont'd)

Comparison to resist Ivor's Kung-Fu Grip and maintain Grapple on Doirind.

Results: U2 loses. Ivor breaks grip. Grapple Condition on Doirind ended.

Ivor practically climbs over Doirind and wrenches the Ulathi's hands loose, pushing the creature back just enough to get the woman free. Ivor supports Doirind and prepares for a final fight and drive toward the circle to escape the incoming enemy.

Final Shots: Round X3 Closing

Remaining Possible Actions: CB and Ox

CB, only option left for Maeriiks in R X3 is possible Movement, Bonus Action or Reaction.
Send it if you want anything, and then I will make any remaining Enemy Movement.

Ox, I'll wait until CB's entry to see if you can get Bryn's Actions on the board. After that is in though, if I don't see anything from you, I'm going to do another iteration of DM control on PC Bryn.

At that point, Tornado Round X3 will be CLOSED.


Preparation for Round X4 Transition

Withhold posting ahead yet for R X4.

After entries above are in, I will restructure a new grid map for R X4 Start positions, make 1 narrative entry to make sure everything is clear, and then we'll open it up.
For the last sprint down obstacle lane it seems.
