Unfortunately for them they grossly underestimated the power of those who had travelled far along the road.<br/><br/>The pair who thought Calanthe easy prey compared to the horse woman were burned to a crisp, their flesh blackened and charred where her flaming blade had struck, the pair's lives gone in a matter of seconds.<br/><br/>The Hound who Excellence had cast her enchantment on recoiled as though from a panging headache before flattening its ears and backing away from the group, moving south-west into the wooded area it had originally emerged from.<br/><br/>While the Hobgoblin who face Lilian did not succumb to death's embrace as its companions had its nose had been left bloodied and several teeth shattered from the impact of her mighty shield. Not one to stand for this and unaware of the fate which would soon befall its commanders through an assortment of witchcrafts and attacks from afar, it strikes back at its foe, murder clearly in its eyes, though that might have been a concussion as its blade hits against the Cleric's shield.<br/><br/>Aubry's attacks against the Cleric strike true, a fear could be seen in the flat-faced creature's features as he looked as though he was about to run and only the Hell Hound, splinters from the arrows in its left eye, keeping him from bolting for if he knew if he ran the fiendish canine would chase him for showing weakness.<br/><br/>This was of little consequence however as he would soon become a pile ash and blackened bones as Thaialie's magic took its desired effect and his presence faded from the world along with most of the remains of the farmhouse with the necrotic fires burning hot enough or rather<em>arcane</em>enough to harm the Hell Hound and begin to sear the blesh of the commander, patting the flames out on his arm revealing blackened bone and cautorised flesh.<br/><br/>His flesh smoldering in an eerie almost black flame, his armour partially melted and searing his flesh, pelted with arrows and his gimp healer deceased the commander of this bunch was not having a good day, to say the least. As he surveyed the scene - two of his men dead (three if you count the cleric), one of his Hounds fleeing and the remainder of those under his direct command obviously to be outmatched by this group even at range he immediately regretted underestimating them and not getting into the middle of the fight as soon as he could. They might be strong, but if he could take the head of even one it would reduce the chances that others of the Red Hand might fall to them. As he grasped his blade in both hands, it now looking like a bug-eaten mess from the necrotic flames of the Centaur, a crown of iron burned into existance atop his head.<br/><span class="rotate" style="-moz-transform: rotate(180deg); -webkit-transform: rotate(180deg); -o-transform: rotate(180deg); -ms-transform: rotate(180deg); transform: rotate(180deg);"><strong>"Thought you could sneak up on me, did you!?"</strong></span>he demanded as he swung his blade at the stunty who stood on all fours beside him... Though he could have sworn had been peeking out of the carriage at him, her head coming clean off her shoulders buried that thought in the back of his mind as he ducked behind one of the remaining farmhouse walls for cover. Now, where had his<span class="rotate" style="-moz-transform: rotate(-15deg); -webkit-transform: rotate(-15deg); -o-transform: rotate(-15deg); -ms-transform: rotate(-15deg); transform: rotate(-15deg);">Gnome</span>Or... his... his Hell Hound gotten to? It had been here but a second ago.<br/>To you though, a madness had apparantly overcome the leader of your assailants, leading him to cut the head off his own ally.<br/><br/>The Hobgoblin at her flank took this opportunity to assail the Wizard for daring to ignore him and cast a spell in HIS mighty presence! Though a little put off by the display of destruction she had just wrought and Uth-Lar cutting the head off of the Hell Hound he was a mite nervous and once more completely whiffed on hitting the hind of a horse.<br/><br/>Meanwhile the archers decided to take pot-shots at the passengers in the caravan again, one attempting to hit Mead and missing due her ability to duck behind cover, his arrow narrowly missing Anthony's leaves and brave Sully's snout, while the second struck its projective deep within Excellence's flesh once more... and becoming a writing, conflagrated mess for his troubles. His fellow archer seeing this makes a noise in the Goblin tongue equivalent to the Common phrase of "screw this I'm not getting paid enough", before moving through the undergrowth back through his original hiding place and heading North.<br/><br/>Adventurers! Your foes are mostly routed with a single Hell Hound, currently cowering from Excellence's actions, one Hobgoblin attempting without success to sink his blade into horse flesh and their commander who is currently within the confines of the farmhouse, taking cover behind a wall and out of sight.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Sword Hobgoblin 4 vs Lilian - AC 12, misses</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2019-01-15 16:50:51, Sword Hob (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a3 Result: 9 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129486)</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Uth-lar Attack vs Hell Hound (Crown of Madness) - AC 16, hit - 18 damage</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2019-01-15 16:36:05, Uth-lar (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a5 Result: 16 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129478)<br/>At 2019-01-15 16:37:16, Uth-lar (uid: 2076) rolls: 2d10a3 Result: 18 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129479)</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Sword Hobgoblin 1 vs Thaialie - AC 12, miss</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2019-01-15 17:18:17, Sword Hob (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a3 Result: 12 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129490)</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Archer Hobgoblin 1 vs Excellence - AC 19, hit for 5 damage</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2019-01-15 17:32:24, Archer Hob (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a3 Result: 19 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129491)</div></div><br/>(Made a save vs Hellish Rebuke as the archer is within 60 feet then realised that even if he saved he dies from the fire damage)<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Archer Hobgoblin 2 vs Mead (Disadvantage) - AC 11, miss</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2019-01-15 17:36:28, Archer Hob (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a3 Result: 11 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129493)<br/>At 2019-01-15 17:36:33, Archer Hob (uid: 2076) rolls: 1d20a3 Result: 20 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129494)</div></div>
