Though the bard's words may have been incomprehensible to the pack of aliens, the music that poured from her lips was not lost on them, and even from a distance, she can see both of the canines squaring off with brawler and summoner alike are driven to distraction by her song – so much so that when one of them tries to take another bite of the monk, Khan fending off the attack near effortlessly now that he's ready for it coming, even as his opponent is wide open for a counterattack.<br/><br/>Zelthos, meanwhile, enjoys mixed fortunes. His gleaming avian's talons manage to score its target as it descends on the dogfolk, drawing its blood. Perhaps clued in by the burst of colorful energy that had gathered around Zelthos' hand as to the source of the summoned eagle, however, the alien goes for the summoner rather than his summon, succeeding in drawing the dhampir's blood a second time, though not as much as the first bite.<br/><br/>Of the aliens nearer to the singing bard, the one that had gone after her seems to still be sharp as ever – but before she can even see the results of her song on the one that had taken a chunk out of the strange, pink-haired woman, in a blink the woman struck it once, twice, thrice, with the strange, snake-like things emerging from her back, leaving it crumpled in a bleeding heap on the floor. Its compatriot that had attacked Ming before gives the bard a look and snarl... but rather than chase after her, instead darts out and grabs onto its fellow, dragging the unconscious canine away from Kali, its clear priority being the wellbeing of its fallen packmate.<br/><br/>Though not injured to the point of collapse, the canine alien battered by magic missiles and sundry metal bludgeons is sufficiently demoralized to make the call that discretion is the better part of valor, attempting to fall back into a defensive crouch against the wall... only to be caught at the last moment of its retreat as Liliana bodily lifts the table and slams it down across the back, sending it sprawling to the floor. Its compatriot, though, having seen the magic Eidolana wields, seems to judge her the most dangerous of the three foes arrayed against it, and lunges for her again – but this time, she is ready, stepping out of the way of its teeth with a dancer's grace, before it turns to get past Liliana's guard, perhaps hoping to intimidate her, or, failing that, distract her from its fallen packmate.<br/><br/>The canine that Lexara faces off against wards off her blow, but is denied her blood on its attempt at a counterattack. The second time is the charm, however, as it finds purchase upon its next opportunity, drawing the tiefling's fiendish blood...<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">=OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Zelthos</strong> takes 4 damage.<br/><br/><strong>Lexara</strong> takes 8 damage.</div></div>
