She was already walking the ranks. Firece slaver and army commander she may not be, but as an archer her skills were top notch and she expected others to at least be capable. It was a bow after all...it wasn't that hard. "I want straight shots, both eyes open. Any horribly stray shots will be see as intolerance. You may not be able to hit one target but you can by Innoruuk's caludren fire into a crowd and hit something." Oh look she did have a tougher commanding side to her after all.
Sevlin merely stood where he was, arms crossed. Though a runic circle was aroudn him. In the fortress a few scribed runes on walls were glowing as he was using them to listen in as well on the happenings of the place seeing as strategizing was happening. Battle, how fun.

I'm right here! He happly jumped to Onyx's shoulder for a moment, rubbing his forhead against the vah's cheek as if to say 'you got it' and jumped onto the table. He looked at the ferret with a curious coq of his head.
Din shrugged. "Being the sun of a demi-god, I can heal, but it's rather crude and painful, and often bloody. I learned what I did from Ton, and he was never gentle." He rubbed at his chin. "But then again, we used to have a healer in the group...we always went to him when ingured. What was his name? Tribani somthing....or something Tribani..." He looked like he went in a bit of a daze, trying to remeber this name.
Outside, orc wizards lined up outside the fear barriar, warming up to throw light fire and earth spells.
The kobolds his the edge of the light shield, and those that had been neglectful to put on their protective torcs where incinerated. The rest marched on, some carrying small spears, others with nothing but fang and claw.

Picking Up Stars Vice Captain

Zahara paced, all her instincts raging to go join the battle. To say she was less than pleased with her assignment was certainly an understatement of vast proportions. She clenched her fists and then sighed. "Okay Din, it's not too bad. There's clerics here already and as long as you keep the injured comfortable, try to stem some of the bleeding until someone can get to them. Other htan that, don't heal. Don't cause any more pain if you don't have to, alright?" She didn't wait for his agreement, she simply ran. She wasn't goign to stand around while the battle raged on and she remembered Malik saying he and Sev were going to the back. So that's where she went. Before Malik or Sevilin could protest her appearance at their side she said "I can't stay in there and heal, I want to help. Sevilin can give me a power boost and I can do a lot more good out here so I"m staying and there's nothing you can do to stop me. Come on Sevilin, just like yesterday."

Malik stood at the front, watched and waiting. he saw quite a bit get incinerated at thier first march, others got through. no big deal. lets see how they deal with the fear and heat. And he drew Malvolence, leaving Ebony sheathed for now.
"Alright faithful breakers. you know how orcs and kobolds work. kill the boss, the rest go running. it's finding the boss that's the fun part."
Most of the ogres, gripping thier hammers chuckled and nodded thier assents.
the new gladitor beasts, those got brought out from to him.
"alright now..I want you all to stand your grounds. let them get halfway here. see how many the heat and fear kills or causes to run away. any spell casters...get them first and as fast as you can."
A whislte, and Nightmare materialized by his side, and his mounted up, not even bothering with tack this time.
"And you, Ramoth..pride and joy...use get to eat anything you can bite into. we'll let Serino take care of the foals."
Then he raised teh red glowign blade up, glancing to teh battlements.
"Archers! get ready...fire as soon at they are in range!"
Onyx stood on the battlements, picking up a couple of sachels and belting them aroudn his waist. and another set of large quivers with little javelins in them.
"So piper. want to make a wager that I kill more of these guys than you do?"

Nym chittered at his new level friend. Oh well look at this guy...wait...what are you anyway? Never see a thing like you in my life. Standing back on his haunches he was talker than Morelle but that was about it. A sniff at the bright creature. I don't need a babysitter you know...though you do look like a good mischef partner.
Sevilin rolled his eyes. "Guarding the back door is hardly any action. Though I plan to be moving on to the front in a matter of time. Disobey him if you wish, but I'll lend my aid as I've been instructed to." He was quiet a moment. "Though you order me one more time and you won't be talking for three months."
A little touchy, no?
Fire in range...hm. For a moment she looked around her. Mostly a mix of compound and long bows. Oh well that was nice wasn't it. She loved hers though...mutli range mix of the two and packed the punch her recurve did. Ah fine craftsmanship to be appreciated. Watching said impending assult she calculated. "One minute then fire at will. Pointy stick into crowd, not a hard concept." Though she looked to Onyx as she was notchign an arrow. "You're trying to best me in archery, you saw how I cleaned up at the tournament. If you want to get your ego brusied then sure. What's at stake?" A point of red light sat on the tip of her arrow before it burst into flame, tendrils of it reaching back to Piper. Why not throw a bit of magic in, right?

I'm a fox squirrel. I'm not from around here. I'm kinda rare. I'm not babysitting, I was just asked to watch. Although I'm not sure why. He coqed his head. Mischef? What's that?
Din waved at Zahara, looking around at the empty room. Okay...now what?
Between each spell caster stood a long range bowman. While their bows crude, the arros were thick and heavy, and perhaps that alone propelled them a great istance. The pulled back on thei strings, and let the first wave fly, hopefully to get the archers on the roof.
The eight waited as the were told, although the chimeras seemed to be getting distracted, either with each other or withanything else. The fox seemed rather inexperianced, and the Otter seemed to want something, as it kept glancing around.
The kobolds were now well into the light area. The orc soldiers following, a battering ram bing pulled along with them.

((What they hey, I'll go...be damned if I have to sit in pause land.))
Ooooh. So that's what you are. I take shiny mostly rounds things, maybe that's why you're watching me? Nym gave a twitch of his nose at the other, dropping down to rest on all fours in typical arhced back ferret position. When you cause trouble on purpose or get into things just to get into them. You don't do it?
Her musing paused as one arrow zinged past her head all too close for comfort. Oh well that wasn't fun at all now was it? "Almost took off my damned head..." Needless to say, Malik's own didn't need order to return fire...besides, it'd been a minute. And she was going to have too much fun with this one. Stepping up onto the battlement's edge pulled back on her arrow and let it go. Flaming arrow landing right between the eyes of an opposing archer. A smirk to Onyx "Well...that's one."

Maybe, but you don't have anything to take form people who are going to battle. Me? Get into things? Why no, I'm strickly a helpful creature. I only beg for food.
The orcs looked at their fallen commrad a moemnt, then shouted and drew their strings again. The kobolds were not longer marching, but running full tilt on four legs.
((Can't do a whole lot on my end, but we can play with the famliars a bit, hmm?))

((Familiars work...fend the boredom off anyway))
I didn't say I take things all the time. Though the people here seem to think that. If they want thier stuff they can keep it. I prefer socks anyway to anything else. Socks are soft. And I'm helpful too, just in my own way. Food begging we have in common though. So, you belong to the black thing?

Oh I see. Socks you say...he personally didn't like the things. Usually because they were fresh ogg of soemone's feet, and they smelled icky like that. Food is good. Food is always good. But no, I belong to the blakc thing's mother. She asked me to keep an eye out on him.

They're better if they're fresh from the drawer. I can get into drawers all easy like. All a matter of climbing inside and up the back of them. Food is always good though I usually eat a lot at one time because me and Sevilin can't eat everyday. So you're watching him to, you watch an awful lot. They don't call you a spy? They call me a thief...and a rat. Of which I am neither.

My people don't wear socks. I've never seen one fresh out of a drawer. I eat whenever I can and how I can. Mistress usually makes me stop, but hasn't lately because she isn't here. Spy? No, I've never been called a spy. People think I'm cute, and give me food when I bark at them. I can see and smell quite clearly ythat you are not a rat.

They don't? That's sad...they make a good bed to sleep on. I like to sleep I do a lot of it. Why isn't your mistress here? Did she take a trip? You must miss her, I miss Sevilin when they lock him up away from me. You are cute. I'm cute too I think. And good thing you can tell I'm not a rat. Those two imp things seem to think I am a long rat and wish to chase and or eat me. It's not fun at all.

I sleep on shoulders and stomachs. They are very warm. And the stomach makes funny noises that pu me to sleep. I sleep alot to. Mistress is on another plane. It takes her far longer to travel here than I do. So she sent me instead. I do miss her. Very much. But I work alot of rher, even now. I have soemtihng to hold onto, and I can't ever let go of it. We are both cute then, Perhaps we can combine out efforts and get mor good food to eat. The imps have not yet chased me. But they have not yet found me.

"Who said archery? I have a different method of attack. as for what's at stake..hmm. how about you see if you can't put in a good word or three with Whirlwind for me. get some girl talk going. and if I lose...I'll get you enough feather from my dad, and soem bone arrowheads you like."
A chuckle as they waited a bit longer...adn then off to teh air he went...flying over the rank and file..crude arrows were way to easy to see. big so big and all..and at and angle, dumped out the javalin holders into teh orc and kobold crowd. death from above! and those red blood looking feathers maybe him look even more badass. this was nice to be important.
Then catching a thermal, heading up, and digging in teh satchels, picking out throwing knives to toss into particular targets..you know..like those moving the battering ram.
Malik forces waited...adn then the Stone statures moved. the scorpions skittered down teh building, pincers snapping, the yuan-ti drawign weapons and slithering forward into the approaching mass.
"Sphinx..otter...chimeras...go on. see the dog things and the brutes leading behidn them. those are the enemy. or dinner, whichever you prefer. strike at them."
The Ogres ran in shortly after, smashing with hammer, biting, grabbing the throwing, using dead bodies to beat others. that's how they fight. Malik rode through the ranks, feeding Malvolence on them as well, Nightmare rearing and kicking and biting Some of the necromancers had moved to the front windows, safely behidn the glass, and were casting disease clouds into the ranks in places safe from thier allies..and raising dead bodies to fight agasint what used to be thier comrades not ten minutes ago.
Onyx came flying back, landing and pickign up another set of javalins.
"I'm at sixty. how are you doing piper?"
