<strong>OOC:</strong>Lyra is going to take a five-foot step back, backing up against the carriage, so that she can't be flanked. Fighting Defensively and also using Combat Expertise to boost her AC (-4 Attack, +4 AC total mods)<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="floatleft">(http://img122.imageshack.us/img122/6007/lyrarhod.jpg)</div><strong>Lyra</strong><br/><br/>Lyra had to leap away from the snake woman's spell as she cast it. She barely dodged the blast of frost, pressing back against the carriage. From just nearby, she heard everything that was said between Tahline and the hobgoblin leader.<em><strong>Smart, but she just turned her back on us. If the rest of us don't get out of here quickly, we're going to get killed.</strong></em><br/><br/>Her mind was cold, but out in the open, she reacted with obvious disgust. Lyra yelled<strong>"The people in the carriage aren't worth saving!" </strong>Now the three outside had more foes to face on their own .<strong>"They've joined with the hobgoblins to save their own skin, the scum. Let's leave them, now, before it's too late!"</strong><br/><br/>A blade snuck in below the guard of her dagger, biting into the softness of her side. Lyra screamed as the wound went deep.<strong>"Please, we need to get out of here! Leave them! They're not worth saving!"</strong>Lyra almost took a second blow to the arm. Stumbling a bit, she backed up against the carriage, only focused on defending herself.
