<blockquote><div><cite>Sashi wrote:</cite>"Ciro, try to get that door!"</div></blockquote><br/>Ciro looks at the massive square of iron, then incredulously back at Sashi. "Get THAT? You're kidding... right?" But Sashi is already back on the assault against the guard. Ciro shrugs, and does his best to brace himself against the closing door.<br/><br/><blockquote><div><cite>Sashi wrote:</cite>"Let us through and you don't have to die, dammit!" </div></blockquote><br/>A harsh, gurgling laugh is the frogman's response to Sashi's offer. "Y'think I'll do any better, lettin' you lot go? Sogluyem ain't got but one punishment fer failure, y'know!"<br/><br/><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;">Ciro's Strength check: 1d20 (15) - 4 (size) = 11, fail by 1  &gt;.&lt;</div></div></div><br/>Ciro throws his shoulder into the door, scrabbling with his clawed feet for purchase on smooth stone floor. For a moment, his efforts seem to be having an effect: against all odds, the scrawny thirty-pound squirrel is holding back a a half-ton of swinging iron! Sadly, the victory is short lived; a with grunt of effort from someone outside, the door begins moving again, sending Ciro tail-over-teacup across the room. A loud *BOOM* or iron on stone announces his defeat, followed by another from the door opposite.<br/><br/><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;">Bullywug makes a Spring Attack!<br/>attack: 1d20 (11) + 9 = 20, miss<br/>movement: 5 feet right (before attack), 10 feet back (after attack)</div></div></div><br/>The guard taunts Sashi with another froggy laugh (no pun intended) as he bounds past, his spear clanging off her armor.<br/><br/>"Trapped now, Missy. C'mon, let's finish this." The frogman glares at Sashi from across the room, daring her to attack again... a bold if obvious bluff. After a mere two strikes, he already looks on the verge of collapse.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-size: 120%; line-height: 116%;">~Round 3~</span></span></span><br/><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;"><span style="color: brown"><span style="font-size: 120%; line-height: 116%;"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">[Status]</span></span></span><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Sashi:</span> HP: 95/105 (90%)   [AC: 24 (+8 <span style="font-style: italic">+1 full plate</span> (donned hastily), +3 natural armor, +3 dex)]   <span style="font-style: italic">18 non-lethal damage</span><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Bullywug:</span> HP: 12/52 (23%)**   [AC: 20 (+5 <span style="font-style: italic">+1 chain shirt</span>, +3 natural armor, +1 dex, +1 dodge]</span><br/><br/>The security gates are closed.</div></div></div>
