Things would quickly go downhill for them as the cheetahs close the distance, and attack with stones falling on the group right afterwards.  Though she manages to dodge the attack from the cheetah, she’s left wincing as rocks hit her, brought on by a spell.  She catches sight of the eagle, Xarithe, swooping in to attack the caster, and she’s forced to trust him to keep that bitch busy while she deals with the concern of the cheetah who tried to bite her.<br/><br/>Seeing two others attacking it, she proceeds to join the fray.  While she doesn’t like treating her crossbow with such neglect, there’s the more important task of not getting killed. So, she lets her crossbow drop to the ground so she can grab hold of her quarterstaff, a weapon better suited for the close combat.  Then, staff in hands, she dips into her inner source of arcane energy, infusing some of it into the staff even as she prepares to strike at the spotted feline!<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;">http://orokos.com/roll/m-AlleyWayTC<br/><br/>Used Arcane point to add +1 enhancement on quarterstaff<br/><br/>Attack total: 18  <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/138352">http://orokos.com/roll/138352</a><!-- m --><br/>Damage Total: 7  <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://orokos.com/roll/138354">http://orokos.com/roll/138354</a><!-- m --><br/><br/>8 Crossbow Bolts left.<br/><br/>Arcane Points 4/5<br/><br/>Spells Prepared<br/>Level 0<br/>Detect Magic<br/>Ray of Frost<br/>Read Magic<br/>Prestidigitation<br/><br/>Level 1<br/>Keep Watch<br/>Mount<br/>Chill Touch<br/>Chill Touch<br/><br/>Level 2<br/>Mirror Image<br/>Mirror Image</div></div></div>
