For a long few seconds, Salla can barely believe what she's seeing. This pale freak of a monster was as fast as she was; she could have hit it a few times, but not without opening herself to a counterstrike she had no intention of taking when she could in the final analysis just run away and leave these two to their fates. As their inhumanly rapid dance continues, though, her rage starts to take on the sheen of admiration for a good opponent. That in itself was hazardous enough, contaminating her purity of purpose, but it's still not enough to let the smell or the fascination with the alien form in front of her displace her burning desire to kill it. And when the tongue flicks out and grabs someone, what runs through Salla's mind immediately isn't to be grossed out, it isn't to recoil. First is a faint whiff of envy, a slight grumble of her own stomach. The second is the crystalline realization that this creature has just made a portion of its body anchored in space and difficult to move out of the way. Spinning away from the monster, Salla brings her sword down into the tongue, trying to hack it apart before it could realize its tactical mistake and pull away.<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;">Wasn't quite sure how to do this as more than one thing, hope this isn't too 'one-actiony'...<a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/250937">Tongue Cut</a>: <span style="text-decoration: underline">2d6</span> <span style="font-weight: bold">5</span></div></div></div>
