The enemy line was thinning out, with bandits and vagrants dropping left and right. It looked rather poor for a moment, but it seems that the group has regained their momentum! The blackguard took this breather to momentarily ensure that his Princess and the rest of her cavalcade is still alright. After all, he was rather distracted for the past few minutes.<br/><br/>While Lady Laplace seemed to be doing perfectly well, Maribelle caught his eye for the fifth time during battle. Not only because of her skillful, hypnotizing dance, but because she had moved to the front lines again and<strong>is standing right next to him</strong>. Flabbergasted, Cuddles took a glance at the shaking soldier in front of him and decided that others can finish him off while Claire moves accordingly to her command and secure the bridge.<br/><br/>With due speed, the knight had circled around the soldier to attack the Myrmidon still focused on looking for Edmund, hidden deep in the forestry in front of him. What a fantastic opportunity to just take him down and clear up a bit more of the enemy! Without a moment's delay, Claire swung his battered lance!<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">Claire moves to H17 and attacks Myrmidon @ H18!<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">nerdy calculations</div><div class="spoiler_body"><tt class="bbc_tt">Battle Inventory:<br/>  Name            Rng  Atk  Hit  Eva  Crt  AS  Ql<br/> - Iron Lance      1   015  090  005  002  02  34.<br/> - Vulnerary                                   03<br/> -<br/> -<br/> -<br/>Active Skills:<br/><strong>Renewal</strong> - Passive Effect / At the start of each Player turn, you regain HP equal to 1/10 of your Maximum HP.<br/><strong>Armoured</strong> - Passive Effect / Any attack that would only deal 1 through 5 damage, no matter the source, the damage is reduced to 0.<br/><strong>Hold The Line</strong> - Passive Effect / Whenever you attempt to hold a chokepoint, the character with this skill blocks off enemy movement through the space to their right and left.<br/><strong>Hold the ****ing Line!</strong> - Claire is a knight bent on dedicating the **** out of his life to defending a cause. / If the character is within 3 spaces of Allied Units, +2 Defense / Resistance<br/><strong>Stirring Blood</strong> - Unless the enemy is another chivalrous knight to duel sportingly with. / If the character is fighting [Knight] or their Promotions, +10 Critical<br/><strong>Portable Oven</strong> - Metal is an excellent conductor of heat.
