Jerking aside at the last second, the bandit's attempt at winding up his lasso is broken by her quick swipe. His yell of pain, however, catches the attention of the bandits, even as two lassos go zinging off into the distance towards his compatriots, the other bandit turns, takes a quick step back, and lets fly towards her, trying to catch her arms in the grip of his own lasso!<br/><br/>[Bandit 2: Lasso on Elaine's arms: 8 Miss]<br/>[Bandit 3: Lasso on Larena's legs: 16 Hit!]<br/>[Lasso effect roll on Larena's legs: 9 Leg Bondage +1]<br/>[Bandit 4: Lasso on Felina's arms: 8 Miss]<br/><br/>Felina follows through with her slash, dipping under the whizzing lasso to take up her battle stance once more, the bandit's throw to settle over her torso going high enough for her to dodge it easily.<br/><br/>Elaine's abrupt turn at the yell served her well, giving her time to duck out of the way of the whizzing rope as well, and prepare herself for the ensuing combat.<br/><br/>Larena wasn't quite so lucky, the bandit's throw settling around her thighs loosely. It gave him a tether to her, but it was too high up her legs [possibly caught on certain anatomy] to restrain the movement of her legs. At least yet.<br/><br/>Surprise broken, the caravan spurred their horses and took to a run, yelling some encouragement to their bodyguards as they ran on ahead of the ambush to escape. So much for loyalty...
