Zame tries to run backwards and get some distance before firing again.  Unfortunately, he leaves himself open as he runs away, and the berserker swings at him ([17]+6-2=21 vs AC; DMG: [10]+[1]+5=16).  Despite the paladin's interference, the berserker hits, downing Zame.  Varis's retribution damages the berserker (DMG: 6), and he nearly collapses, but he manages to stay on his feet.<br/><br/>One of the thralls jumps on the guard near the north wagon, killing him.  Another thrall tries to go for the remaining guard, but his attack is deflected.  The remaining thralls charge at Varis, and both are able to hit the paladin ([14]+6=20 vs AC; [16]+6=22 vs AC; DMG: 6-2=4, 6-2=4).  Meanwhile, the nearly-dead berserker strikes at Varis ([14]+6=20 vs AC; DMG: [1]+[8]+5-2=12), striking him hard and nearly knocking the paladin off his feet.  The healthy berserker jumps aboard the wagon, slashing at Guts, but the supplies make it difficult for him to swing his axe ([3]+6=9; miss).<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Map</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss261/Sethala/Dungeons%20and%20Dragons%20Maps/Battle1-5.png)</div></div><br/>Valorie is up.  Initiative and status:<br/><br/>Cult Leader<br/>Zame Ragues (-8/29, Dying)<br/>Cult Thrall<br/>Cult Berserker (A: -45, Marked by Varis [Divine Challenge], Bloodied, Bloodied Rage effect; B: -10)<br/>Valorie<br/>Varis (2/30, Bloodied)<br/>Guts (16/24; Dazed (save ends))<br/>Dara (Delaying)
