Marcus launched himself up the steps, axe in hand, and rammed the thin wood open with his horned head. Luckily his estimation proved correct as the barrier splintered and fell away quickly. He scrambled onto the top of the tower, a small fragment of wood still impaled on his left horn. As he brought his axe into position he found, to his surprise, that the three kobolds he had expected to combat had collapsed onto the ground.<br/><br/>Fallen foes, with no means of defending themselves. Yet there was still danger here, and there was no telling when these three might rise to become a threat again. There are times when compromises must be made. Marcus pulled back his axe in a great double-handed swing, twisting the haft in his grip to bring the flat of the blade down upon the first kobold's head.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Mechanics</div><div class="spoiler_body">No idea if all of this works.

Though he had no obvious means of delivering on the threat, Marcus still growled up at the beast. "You are next."<br/>
