Jabbing his sword into the hungry soldier's flesh, Xarius is pleased to find Mona wiggling herself free. Whether of her own merit, or the distraction his blade had created, either way it would make dealing with the soldier all the more easier now that he needn't worry about puncturing an ally within.<br/><br/>Seeing the red haired mage free, Xarius returns the smile to her, "Glad to see your safe, I'd never think to abandon you." he comments with sincerity, glad to see that at least she seemed to understand they all needed to look out for one another if they were to get through this. Even gladder was he to see the glimmer of appreciation she showed upon being saved, "Besides." he adds with a little grin "Who else is going to eat me if things go to hell and we wind up stranded in the ocean." he teases, transferring his shield to his sword hand, just long enough for him to reach out and give her middle a gentle little pat.<br/><br/>The soldier, having just lost his meal was visibly unhappy as he takes a swing at Mona with his blade. This Xarius was not about to stand for, he hadn't went through all the trouble of coming over here and freeing Mona, just to have her be assaulted with a blade. "Perhaps I didn't make myself clear... you mess with Mona you mess with me, I will not warn you again!" Xarius growls, feeling the flow of Delia's magic coursing through his veins once more, before unleashing a flurry of attacks, able now to freely jab, thrust, and stab at the man's torso, chest, and neck, now that Mona was not at risk of being struck should the blade sink too deep. No now nothing would spare the soldier from the neko's wrath. Xarius ears flattening atop his head, his tail swishing with every stab and swing.<br/><br/>No sooner had his blows landed upon the unfortunate soldier, would Xarius turn his head toward the others. "Now that your both free" he motions to Mona and Chira who had recently finished gulping down another soldier. "Shall we see about giving Garth a hand?" Xarius asks, glancing across the room at the now bound orc. At least he'd not been immediately struck down, as Xarius had feared his recklessness would lead to, but being held by the enemy was not a good predicament for the man to be in either. Delia seemed to be fine at least, with her back against the wall, belly full of wriggling mage she was looking as sexy as ever, a fact Xarius unfortunately, did not have time to admire. He was pleased to see his choice to aid Mona had not put Delia in danger, and Xarius would be able to move into position to help her before things had a chance of getting out of hand. He'd warned the two newcomers already... seeing as they chose to ignore him, like their fellow soldier he'd just finished assaulting...Xarius saw no reason why he shouldn't make them regret their decision... the catboy eager to return and introduce himself proper.<br/><br/><br/>Xarius<div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Performing a full attack on the soldier assailing Mona. Forgot to add an extra +1 to the first two attacks, though i doubt it'd make much difference. Assuming his attacks are enough to disable the enemy, he'll then take a 5 foot step back towards the rest of the action. <br/><br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428148">pokey swats #1</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d20+14</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">21</span><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428149">pokey swats #2</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d20+14</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">30</span><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428150">pokey swats #3</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d20+10</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">20</span><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428151">pokey swats #1 dmg</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d6+4</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">8</span><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428152">stabby pokes dmg #2</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d6+6</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">12</span><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/428153">pokey swats #3</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">1d6+6</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">10</span></div></div></div>
