Okay, first my bardic lore question on them. Assuming I’m correct down below ^_^ Are gnolls quick or dim-witted? That is, can I taunt or confound them through mental trickery to gain some advantage?<br/><br/>But first I’m going to try to<strong>Defy Danger</strong>by using my grace and footwork to weave/dodge between them. Attempting to lunge to Lynn and cut her free. I’m assuming that would be a Dex roll.

I’ve seen you in water, I know you can do it. Come in!” and then gives Lynn a playful splash. Lorelei continues humming her tune, feeling the fresh water running along her skin. It was so nice. Her father and even some of her sisters scoffed at the water beyond the sea. But she always loved it. It was different. Hard to describe to those not of the ocean. It felt odd, foreign much like the dry land but at the same time familiar, cool. Like tasting one’s favorite food prepared in a manner much different than one knows. Some recoil at the abuse, others are tempted by strangeness. Lorelei was more like the latter. “Very,” she answered Lynn’s question finally although the momentary bliss was shattered.<br/><br/>“Gnolls!” she wrinkled one side of her nose in cute disgust. With her familiarity of all types of beasts they were instantly recognized. “Leave her alone you filthy mongrel!” she snarls and draws her rapier, about to leap forward when the others appear, surrounding her as it were. Her shoulder’s slump and eyes roll as she looks questioningly at her weapon, “Well you are pretty good for cutting things free but I’m not so sure about attacking flea-bitten sacks of ugly.” She smiles at the three of them, but in truth she still wasn’t sure what to do. As Lorelei often does, the time comes to act before thinking. A quick turn of her body, shoulder to them, body narrow as she eyes the gap between the beasts. Her position also gives them a good look at her side-boob through the opening under arm as she raises her rapier in a striking motion. But then at the last minute and dodge and weave through the two coming forward, shapely legs springing her out of the water before they can get far.. Unfortunately a large root was hidden at the edge of the pool in the surrounding the brush.To which her foot struck most impressively as she let out a squeal, likely impeding her movement to quickly dart between them.
