"Eep!"  Miri gives a startled exclamation as the flail wraps around her legs, pulling her to the ground.  She lands lightly enough on her back, maintaining her hold on her sword, but it does manage to sting her pride.  She struggles, her lithe body twisting beneath her robes, her shapely athletic legs kicking as she fights her way free of the chain.  Her face red, she struggles to her feet, doing her best to ward off any incoming blows as she does.<br/><br/>As she rises to her feet, she speaks an arcane word; electricity crackling down the length of her sword.  With a grim expression, she lunges towards her attacker, channeling more arcane might into her blade.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">mechanics</div><div class="spoiler_body">Move action=stand.  Swift action=activate arcane strike, making sword do +2 damage this turn.  Standard= spell fighting (kinda like twf).  Shocking grasp gets 25 to hit, 12 for normal damage, 6 fire, 14 electric.  Normal sword attack gets 11 to hit... don't think I need to roll damage for that!</div></div>
