<strong>Ashley</strong><br/><strong>"Just throw your towel on top of it, then step on it. You being naked doesn't bother me",</strong>the girl - who was still veiled - shrugged, closing the door.<strong>"Or I'll find you another sheet..."</strong><br/>Most people dislike scorpions, since they could kill a man, probably stinging by surprise...or a child. Not that it's likely to meet a child here, in the caravansaray - preciously few people travel with their families - but this didn't apply to kid slaves, as Ashley would know, and rich men sometimes take their entire families to pilgrimages...<br/><br/>But then the girl, having moved towards the bed, reversed motions behind Ashley's back, and attacked by surprise. She pressed a piece of cloth on her mouth - which smelled nicely, as if it had been soaking in a herbal decoction - and hugging her across the stomach with her other hand, tried to take her down.<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roll me against the higher of your Unarmed and Athletics. If you don't beat a 19 in an opposed roll, Ashley goes down, as per the special effect.<br/>The girl has used her surprise attack results to generate two combat effects, one of which is Assassinate - which prevents any shouting. So please, no calling for help in your post. Trying and failing is fine :P!<br/>I actually can't find her stats here, so I'm not going to roll the damage now. But it wasn't enough to take Ashley down in one blow, that much I remember.<br/></div></div>
