In the cane facing the front door, surprise has turned the advantage to  is heated.  The terror bird's legs go awkward as it lunges at the assailing goblin, blood spurting as his axe crushes its nearest leg.  The neck wound is not founting as prettily as he'd like, but he can catch a glimpse of dark fluid flying from the nostrils set in its massive, oversized beak... must have nicked the windpipe on that first chop... but unfortunately he notices this as that beak is brought down, point-first, in a blindingly fast strike at the goblin's body.  It strikes, and though his armor saves most of the damage, he can feel the trickle of his own blood under the hide he wears.<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">TB: AC 15( HP <del>24 </del><del>11 </del>4: Attack 1: Roll 13+8-1=20.  Damage to Tak: 1d8+5=7.  <br/></div></div>It is easy to see now why they thought the doors had been brought down with axes... the birds are using their huge, beaked skulls like axes to bring down their prey.  Quinta's target whips its head forward in an attack that she should have been able to deflect-- but the thing was fast, amazingly so--  the armor bite is painful, though her gear may have saved her collarbone from breaking.  The positioning exposes the elongated neck of the beast and, with a popping burst, the beast's neck is severed through.  There's a gout of arterial blood as the body lurches for a couple awkward steps before careening into the wall.  The legs piston a couple more times and go still.<br/>The second into the room-- its larger, slower cousin, was already on the hunt for more fight before its brood-mate lost its head; Alphonse's daggers catch its flank, but it tears by and leaps, flapping its wing-like appendages and takes Fiera, unceremoniously, to the floor.  The woman's eyes go to stars for a moment before she comes to, and she is presented with the horrifying visage of a ten-foot-tall beast about to feast on her.<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Healergirl-- it was a successful crit.  PF says to roll the damage with regular modifiers multiple times in this instance, rather than just doubling.  I think I prefer it that way as it really sucks to roll low on damage on a crit... :)  In this case, we'll just double the original as you've done.  The damage was sufficient to kill it, so I just moved Alphonse's damage to the standing bird.  The moving bird went with a "buffet" attack that's essentially a glorified trip.<br/>Terrorbird 1 is dead, Terrorbird 2 is atop Fiera.  Damage to Fiera: 8 subdual and condition: prone.</div></div>
