Tanrov moves to a point where he can attack the crossbow wielding Tiefling on ground floor
Tanrov's weapon smacks into the, flagstones in front of the tiefling. Though his eyes widen with fright, the criminal stands his ground.
Garidan charges across the street with his bill at the forefront, trying to skewer the tiefling attacking Tanrov.
Garidan's weapon shanks on the corner of the building.
Tanrov examines his opponents stance and style checking for weaknesses and when he thinks he has an opening he attacks.
Tanrov manages to crack open the skull of the tiefling facing him. The bandit crumples to the ground, bleeding to death.
Rurik crouches slightly and lets fly a bolt at the tiefling who's been taking potshots at the team.
(Took a -4 for cover, adjust as needed)
Rurik's crossbow bolt slams into the window beside the tiefling, who quickly disappears from view.
In front of Tanrov, a tiefling comes out the door, rapier in hand. From the temple's tower, a bell begins to ring out.
Tanrov studies the new target that has presented himself and gives a short but powerful chop with his Earthbreaker
Between swings and maneuvers Tanrov says
"Two tieflings are trying to remain in the shadows behind a building just south of us"
The tiefling before Tanrov collapses in a heap, totally lifeless.
Rurik hunches down and reloads his crossbow, then launches another bolt at the tiefling fighting against Tanrov.
(-4 for firing into melee without Precise Shot)
EDIT: Since Tanrov wrecked house on that guy, presumably this is fired at someone else (if visible), but the low roll means it probably doesn't matter. :)
Garidan heads south towards the next building and takes cover.
Garidan hears a great deal of noise from the building he is adjacent to. Shouting followed by a loud bang.
Garidan moves closer to the door and prepares to impale anything that comes out of the building.
"Ready when you are!" Rurik says quietly but aggressively as he moves up next to Garidan, pointing his crossbow toward the door.
Tanrov moves closer to the door than the other two ready to bash the door or something that comes through it
This door is finely made and built of a rich red-brown wood. Carved onto the surface is a nearly full-size picture of a man holding a piece of wood in one hand and a carving tool in the other; the end of the piece of wood is starting to resemble the front part of a horse. Also cut into the door is a young child looking up eagerly at the emerging horse the man is carving.
No one exits when you round the building and face the door. In the distance, the chiming of the old bell has stopped.
Tanrov notices how injured he feels and casts cure light wounds
And then if he has time he'll smash the door
Garidan readies his spear to stab through the door once it falls to Tanrov's attack.
The door probably would have withstood Tanrov's attacks in better days, however neglect and rusted hinges cause the frame to shatter and the heavy wood to fall inward with a loud bang. The building inside is relatively clean and the table in the main room holds some dirty dishes and wine goblets. A smell of sweat and lust fills the air. A door to a closet to the west lies ajar. Beyond can be seen a rough-cut hole in the floor.
Tanrov moves into the room and looks down the hole
Rurik slides in quickly behind Tanrov, keeping his crossbow up for cover.
Tanrov sees a set of narrow, steep stairs leading into a darkened tunnel. Voices echo from below, "A raid! Move into defensive postures! Wake the Digger!"
"Lets go"
Tanrov waits for the others then heads down the stairs into the tunnel
This looks to be some kind of barracks; several simple bunk beds take up space in the corners of the room. A buff tiefling with clawed hands is facing the door and growling.
Rurik moves up behind Tanrov, looking for an opportunity to slide into a position where he can support with his crossbow.
Garidan falls in behind Tanrov and Rurik and heads into the building.
"They're here!" the clawed tiefling shouts, "Boss? Should I tear them to shreds?"
From the northern passage, two other tieflings rush into view. One, armed with a short sword, takes a position southeast of the clawed one and strikes a defensive posture. The other utters an incantation and points at Tanrov. A bolt of arcane energy smacks into Tanrov.
Tanrov moves forward and smacks the closest tiefling
Tanrov's weapon crumples the tiefling sorcerer in a single blow, however, no one noticed the two rogues hiding in the shadows. The pair rush Tanrov with practiced timing.
One of the rogues stumbles and misses his attack by a wide mile while the other strikes true, sinking his short sword deep into Tanrov's abdomen.
Tanrov.. roars in pain when he is slashed and then realising the extent of the injury attempts to press against it while maintaining a defensive posture
Garidan stepped forward to bring the tieflings within reach and stabbed forward with his bill, hoping to knock one of them off balance.
I'm still here, did another round pass?
* grumble grumble * Trying to figure out the order here...
Rurik reflexively triggers his crossbow at one of the rogues as they surround Tanrov.
(Firing into melee without precise shot)
(if it hits)
Rurik's shot hits the wall next to Tanrov's head and Garidan's weapon flashes out, providing some cover to the inquisitor.
The clawed one charges at Tanrov recklessly, trying to slash at his face.
The two rogues try to press the attack, smelling blood and sensing weakness.
Both of the flankers miss thanks to Garidan's efforts.
The other rogue shouts out, "I will get the dogs! Once the big one is done they can chase down the others!" He squeezes behind the clawed tiefling, but leaves his back exposed to Tanrov as he goes by.
Chanting can be heard in the chamber, coming from nowhere. A black and red mace emblazoned with pentagrams suddenly appears between Garidan and Tanrov, attacking Garidan.
Rurik drops his crossbow again and his scimitar slides out of the scabbard. He makes a tentative slash at the rogue that approaches.
