Xanha - Attacking Gold Wher
HP: 18/30
1d4 + 3 - 7 damage
"Faranth, no!"
An alarmed cry escaped Xanha as she saw the wher crash into Kleos, and she lunged forward again, ignoring pain and everything else in a desperate attempt to draw attention back away from the dragonriders. She had caught an eye once, but she doubted she would be so lucky this time. Instead, she moved in, hoping to catch the wher while it was distracted, aiming to cut on the neck, behind the heaknobs and jaw, under and to the throat, moving quickly like she was cutting ropes or a net.

Gold wher - attacking Etasha HP: 38/120 Attack: 1d12+3 Damage: 15 Damage taken: 6 + 7 + 7 = 20 The gold snapped her jaws at Kleos as the crimson rider's knife cut into her flank, but her attention was drawn away by Etasha's gambit before she managed to catch hold of the reeling wingleader again. Bellowing her rage the huge beast turned on Etasha as the woman's blade cut into her neck. Xanha, attacking from the other side, was ignored for the time being.

Kleos - Attacking wher
HP: 7/30
Attack: 1d4+3, +1
Damage: 5
As the gold took another powerful swipe at Etasha Kleos staggered around behind it again, trying again to cripple its hamstrings. "F'itz, help her!" she called as she slashed at the wher's already ichor stained hocks. They had to finish this and flee, all of them, they had to get out of here.
(Will post with F'itz after Etasha <3)

Etasha - Dodging
HP: 8/30
Dodge: 1d8
---
The gold came at her again - Etasha moved, keeping her off hand out of the range of its jaws, because if she lost that then she'd be useless as a trundlebug in this fight. But a heavy-clawed foreleg came down square on her chest, batting her into a wall as if she were a child's ragdoll.
The world spun, and Coryxoth cried out in the back of her mind. The black sounded curiously far away over the ringing in her ears. She wobbled to her feet with difficulty - for some reason her breath wouldn't quite catch, though she was still upright and moving. For now. "Don't know if I can take another hit like that," she told F'itz in an unsteady voice.

Xanha - Attacking Gold Wher
HP: 18/30
1d4 + 3 - 4 damage
"Just get out!" she snapped, scowling at Kleos. They weren't winning. They were overwhelmed and outnumbered, and the wher was dangerous. Neither the crimsonrider nor the blackrider could take another hit from the beast, and Xanha was fairly sure she couldn't either. They needed to get out while there was still time. "You're going to get yourselves killed, dragonriders!"
She was bleeding, she noted faintly, and she moved to engage the wher again, knife flashing. "Come on, you old cow," she snarled, hoping to draw the gold's attention away from Etasha and Kleos once and for all. Someone was going to die in these passages, that was all there was to it.

F'itz - Healing Etasha
F'itz nodded grimly to Etasha, studying her face hard for some moments. "Could you take over bandaging?" he asked quickly as he wrapped her wounds as best he could. "I've used almost all of mine already... and compared to you I'm fresh." If she refused there was little he could do about it, but he hoped that she would see sense. She was so young, all of them were, and for all that it made some sense to have sent them in for their greater speed he felt a weight of guilt in his chest.

Gold wher - attacking XanhaHP: 27/120 Attack: 1d12+3 Damage: 10Damage taken: 7 + 4 = 11So much blood now, she revelled in it! She would kill them, every one, and feast on their flesh and crack their bones between her jaws. With her previous target batted away from her the gold sprang at the next one to strike her, the one who had taken her eye; Xanha. Notes- PCs have until Friday 11:59pm to complete the mission! At that point major reinforcements will arrive and they will have to flee.

Kleos - Attacking wher
HP: 7/30
Attack: 1d4+3, +1
Damage: 7
"No!" Kleos barked. "I will not abandon my mission, nor my comrades! We came here together and we shall leave together, victorious!" Would they? Might it not be wiser to flee, or at least to order the others to flee? Was that not a leader's job, to see their people safe? Then again was it merely foolish to throw her life away when there was still a chance, together they did have a chance. There had to be a chance, didn't there?
And then the gold wher swatted at Xanha again and she felt as though she saw their chances dwindling before her very eyes.
"F'itz do you know the way out of here?" Kleos called as she slashed at the wher again. It wouldn't hurt to be prepared to run, they would have to if - when they took down the wher anyway.

Etasha - Bandaging Xanha
HP: 11/30
---
For a moment her eyes locked with F'itz's. Kleos had wanted him to stay back and out of the fight for a reason - and Etasha had no particular desire to be the cause of a fellow rider's death by sending him into the fray in her place. But what he said, it made sense.
She would do them no favors by letting herself be knocked out or killed. The former, she'd be a burden, slowing them down during the escape. The latter, they would lose Coryxoth as well. F'itz still had the strength in him to keep going.
"Go," she told F'itz. "I've got this." And as Xanha was knocked back from another brutal attack, Etasha moved in, working swiftly and efficiently at the worst of her wounds.

Xanha - Dodging
HP: 17/30
1d8 + 3bandage - 1 damage taken
The wher was big, and fast, but Xanha was faster this time, and she was expecting it. Dodging away, pulling back and clasping her hands to her chest, she managed to move out of the way, inadvertently hip-checking the wher in the shoulder but slipping back. She was lucky, this time. There was no chance it would happen again. She glanced to the other dragonriders only briefly. She was still too close to the wher.

F'itz - Attacking wher
HP: 20/30
Attack: 1d4+3
Damage: 4
F'itz nodded grimly to Etasha, clasped her shoulder in a brief gesture of solidarity before drawing his knife again and moving in to face the wher head on. In his mind he could feel Brumath's fear echoing his own and he hated that he was doing this to his lifemate but he had a job to do here, a duty to fulfil. These three young women had demonstrated incredible courage in drawing the wher onto them each in turn to defend one another, and to defend him. He would not be found lacking now when they needed him to act.
"I think so!" he replied shortly to Kleos as he tried to drive his knife into the wher's neck; he hadn't time to say more than that.

Gold wher - attacking Xanha HP: 16/120 Attack: 1d12+3 Damage: 15Damage taken: 4 + 7 = 11The gold wher was panting hard now, and the snarl she let out when her prey slipped away carried a desperate edge. Kill. Kill the humans, defend her clutch. Letting out an ear-splitting screech she sprang at Xanha again, jaws gaping wide.

Kleos - Attacking wher
HP: 7/30
Attack: 1d4+3, +1
Damage: 7
"Xanha!" Shards, shards, shards! They were so close now, and yet so close to falling to the beast's claws. If the gold killed one of her companions how could she ever live with herself? Giving up on the hamstrings Kleos moved around the gold's great bulk to stab at its throat.

F'itz - Attacking wher
HP: 20/30
Attack: 1d4+3
Damage: 4
The gold now seemed to have focused all of her hate on Xanha. F'itz plunged his knife into the beast's neck again, trying desperately to remember the point where the major blood vessel was closest to the surface. Even if he did remember how would he had managed to strike it with the animal thrashing around as it was?

Etasha
HP 11/30
Damage 1d4+3
2+3=5 damage
This fight was nearly over. Nearly there - none of them could endure any longer, they had to strike now or accept that one of them would fall with the wher's next blow.
She'd told F'itz that she would stick to the healing, but there would be time for that when the wher was dead. Better to ask forgiveness than permission, in this case; you only needed forgiveness if you survived.
Closing in, Etasha raised her knife for a final blow.
