b]Xarces[/b]<br/>You can continue to act for Shaklik.<br/><br/>The first Blackscale, lalready mauled by Linda's raised skeleton (the remains of one of his deceased and digested comrades), simply turns and flees into the night, beating at the flames skittering along his arms. His comrade is made of sterner stuff – even as the flames begin to lick his body he continues to fight, though he's clearly shaken by the experience {7 damage}. From inside the temple, screams of pain can also be heard, and the flickering light of new-kindled fire seen. The Dracotaur seems unaffected by your furious anger, but your very existance is clearly disturbing to him. With a roar, he spits at you. To your shock, it ignites the moment it leaves his mouth, and a great gob of fire roars towards you...<br/><br/>...and strikes you. The sticky stuff won't come off, and begins to burn, {10 fire damage}. Caught in the firey splash, Linda's skeleton is sprayed by burning fluid {2 fire damage}.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Synys (Sylvira)</span><br/><br/>The kitsune draws, nocks, and looses in a single smooth movement, the bowshot expertly taking the Blackscale unawares, spearing his neck with an almost-certainly fatal wound. With a groan, he crumples, and Xarces's blistering speech begins to roast his body, filling the air with mouthwatering scents...<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Alizome</span><br/><br/>Alizome sees a scene of near-chaos. The Dracotaur sprayed fire from the door, returning a blistering speech that can only have been Xarces's. Within, the fire of the words has set the very scales of a pair of Blackscale's alight. One is simply a guard, but the other dressed in the robes of an acolyte. The sole unwounded guard beats at his companion's skin, and the flames begin to gutter and die...<br/><br/>{Stealth roll was easily sufficient – I think you can still attack this turn though...}<br/><br/>Acted Round 1: BS1, BS2, BS3, BS4, Dracotaur, Flying Creature, Xarces and Shaklik, Synys (Sylvira), Alizome (Sansuki), Linda (Anime_Chaos) including skeleton and guards (with readied action 'protect linda')<br/>Still to act Round 1: BSA1, Alizome, Jules (Bright), Aethon (Jermayan), Nako (Akiada)<br/>Damage: Linda's Skeleton, 20; Jules, 5; BS3, 1; BSA1, 10; Xarces, 10.<br/>Status: BS3 (on fire), Linda's Skeleton (on fire), Xarces (on fire)<br/>Dead: BS1 (fled), BS2
