Poised gracefully, Ebron slams his shield into the approaching skeleton, hearing the ribs crack. However his decision to then use a ranged attack seems questionable, as the three skeletons lash out in his moment of distraction and one, the same who drew Kiera’s blood, seems to be about to slash him across the face, until a well time jut of the shield knocks the claws aside. Ebron is even able to make the shot against the blight wolf, watching as the creature is thrown back, it neck snapping, as he catches the returning shield.<br/><br/>One of the zombies moves to follow the skeletons' attack on Kiera, but all it manages to do is gnash menacingly at her, as caught between a house and its fellow undead it can barely reach the half-elf. The other moves down the street, past the frenzied mob of warm flesh and undead to its right, instead lunging at Lydia, who stands between it and the defenseless Stela, but the fencer effortlessly holds the lumbering corpse at bay with her rapier, inflicting a nasty stab to the center of its chest in the process.<br/><br/><br/>OOC – New combat map - https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1s4IVklJQAJYt6tujLQ2hzaQ7kJ25uxED_5F6ODdQHdc/edit<br/>Stela: 25 – Slightly Injured, paralyzed<br/>Melisandre: 22 – Unharmed, sickened<br/>Keely: 21 – Slightly injured, nonlethal only<br/>Kiera: 14 – Slightly injured<br/>Lydia: 16 – Slightly Injured<br/>Three Skeletons – Moderately Injured, Slightly Injured, Slightly Injured<br/>Ebon: 8 - Slightly Injured<br/>Two zombies: 3 – Unharmed, Unharmed<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Lydia</div><div class="spoiler_body">  The zombie attacked you, so you can attempt a parry if you wish.</div></div><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Ebron</div><div class="spoiler_body">  Since you used a range attack, I believe that provokes an attack of opportunity, and you were adjacent to 3 skeletons.
