Tahigwa attacks with Dancing petals! Rolled: 3 (+5) = 8 MISS
After avoiding an attack from the first beast and landing a decent hit, Tahigwa decided it was time to make a move against one of the others. Sure, she could keep hitting the one that had tried to hurt her, but what fun would that be? It was safer to keep hitting the same one over and over, but it was so much more interesting to jump out of nowhere and attack the others from above. The Alkidike now had a smirk on her face, she was ready for battle!
"INCOMING!" She screamed, aiming her swords straight for the side of one of the beasts. She had jumped from a lower tree limb, using a move her mother had taught her, and due to her haste, missed the beast by a mile. Stunned by her poor aiming, and the fact that she had literally jumped in front of several other fighters like some sort of idiot, she could almost feel her brother's eyes drawing burn marks into her back. THAT WAS A STUPID MOVE, TAHIGWA, WASN'T IT?
Ruelash Attacks Beast 2! Needs 20+ to hit! 5+9= 11 = MISS
Ruelash attacked again, aiming for the tendons on the leg, only for the massive beast to move.
For something so big and slow, it went awfully quickly. Must be those legs thought Ruelash. He shrugged and ran after it, hoping to catch up and give it a blow.
That was when he had oppurtunity to look up... and see people. They were, what, riding it?
His grin grew positively murderous, and he kept them in sight as he ran alongside the beast, looking for an oppurtunity to attack. Yes. Those people were worthy targets. But could he climb up the beast to get them?
Sure.
Sure he could. He just had to find the right way up. Hehe. hehehehe... he laughed in his mind, air being too precious to waste on real laughter. He wanted to deal more death today!
Hijil Attacks Beast 1! Needs 19+ to hit! 17+5=22 HIT 5+5/2= 5 DAMAGE DONE TO BEAST 1
Hijil managed to protect the group behind her as they launched a counter attack, and had enough sense to move out of the way of their spells. Nearby, though, a mage fell and, glancing over, she recognized him as the mage... the man who was with Yaholo... whatever his name was. She punched a sharp shard of rock away, incidentally deflecting it back at the creature that sent it.
"Do you need assistance?" she asked, returning to her defensive posture nearby. She could protect him too, if need be.
Attempt to dodge attack of beast 2 then power up Dodge yay! 12+6=18 = no damage
BarAmal had been so focused on his lousy shot that he barely noticed a beast attacking him and others. Shouting a warning he dropped to the ground and rolled. He was stepped on but with the dirt in his eyes he couldn’t see who it was. Rolling back he curled to his feet in a crouched position and sprang back. He wasn’t hurt but he was dirty. Drawing up his bow he took aim at he beast and rather than launching blindly like before he was taking his time and aiming his shot so that he didn’t harm those he fought beside. He was determined not to have a bad shot this time.
(Edit: slight change of health because I was rereading battle basics and realized BarAmal did 5.25 damage to himself from first attack. forgive my lapse please. No change to anything else.)
The flurry was very distracting for Ethelfleade. People were screaming and some being carried off the battle field. It was a very scary experience for her, yet she also thrived in it...or so she thought. Her ego had gotten too inflated and soon she didn't even see that same evil beast fling chunks of earth at her. A huge chunk hit her right in the side, it would have hit her center mass had she not moved at the last minute. Her grip on her sword had loosened and she almost lost it when she swung for her counter attack. Come on Fleade, get your head together. She growled at herself.

Takoda healed Kelina for 6.2 health. Her new health is 15.2/24
The next attack sent the healer flying. He hadn't been able to dodge it at all amongst the chaos. He had been so concerned about healing people he had managed to get himself in a bad spot and now laying in a heap on the ground wondered his choices in life. But there was no time for that, lifting his aching body he spotted someone, a woman who looked probably as bad off as himself. But the healer in him wouldn't allow himself to stop to take care of his own wounds first, no he moved over to where Kelina was and quickly spoke a few words of power to heal a majority of her wounds. He offered her a small smile, looking as if he probably wouldn't be getting back up again if he was hit solidly like last time.
"Be careful my friend.." He managed to Kelina as he then stumbled off trying to find someone else to heal.

The beasts were tough, very tough and though he had been focused on one of the other creatures it was probably why he was taken by surprise by being attacked by one nearby rather than the one he was attacking. Something broke. He wasn't sure what but when he was hit suddenly he felt as is breathing was difficult. Sputtering as he found himself laying on the ground his sword still gripped in his hands he got up. The world spun and probably stupidly moved to attack the creatures again. Somehow he managed to still hit it and deal a bit of damage, much to his delirious surprise.
Jerarda: Is dodging and counter/retaliating against Beast 3 HP || 38/38 * Attack || (+11) * Defense || (+5) * Magic || (+2) * Speed || (+6 ) HP:38/38 Beast 1 Jerarda needs 19 to hit // Beast 2 Jerarda needs 20 to hit // Beast 3 Jerarda needs 18 to hit Jerarda tries to dodge and counter/retaliate against Beast 3 Dancing Petals: +2 speed bonus Round 1/3 Dodge Roll: 11 + 6 +2 = 19 Jerarda takes No damage Jerarda counter/retaliates Damage Roll: 11 + 11 /5 = 4.4 dmg to Beast 3 Dancing Petals Cool down: 1/3
As expected the beasts were raging against those that dealt them harm. She was targeted by one of them and was able to deftly avoid one attack though it put her in an awkward spot to attack back, the tip of her spear only dipping slightly into the creatures hide before she was able to pull it back out again. Blood dripped from the tip of her spear as she tried to anticipate the creatures next attack.
Keilana: Is dodging and counter/retaliate against Beast 3 HP || 34/34 * Attack || (+11) * Defense || (+8 ) * Magic || (+0) * Speed || (+4 ) HP:38/38 Beast 1 Keilana needs 19 to hit // Beast 2 Keilana needs 20 to hit // Beast 3 Keilana needs 18 to hit Keilana tries to dodge and counter/retaliate against Beast 3 Keilana Dodge Roll: 16 + 4 = 20 Keilana takes: No Damage Keilana retaliates: 16 +11 /5 = 5.4 dmg to Beast 3 Heavy Hitter Cool Down: 1/3
Taking a step backwards she managed to avoid being hit by debris as it was flung in many directions at once. Somehow she managed to do it, surprising herself as she then went to swing her hammer back at the beast as she danced closer once again. Hammer being swung about as she brought it about as hard as she was able.
Tahira tries to dodge against Beast 3 Tahira Dodge Roll: 9 + 4 = 13 ( fail) Tahira takes: Full damage 23 - 15 = 8 Tahira has: 8 hp remaining Tahira Powers up ( +3 to hit & atk OR dodge next turn)
Tahira's elation at getting a solid hit on the enemy was short lived. These things were just too massive and while not particularly fast they were difficult to engage properly. The young woman clutched her blades tightly and tried to circle behind a leg to attack a joint, or as close to a joint as she could reach.
There was magic and metal everywhere and people bleeding and dying no matter where she looked. Her poor antennae were going haywire and it was much harder to focus than She could have imagined. No amount of training helped with this. Debris flew everywhere again as the creatures slammed themselves into the ground. Tahira manged to successfully sidestep a massive clod of dirt only to trip over a fallen warrior and get bludgeoned by a hail of ground and rocks before she could get back to her feet.
She was dazed but determined and as she swayed on her feet Tahira did her best to summon her inner strength, she was better than this, she would not fall so easily!
Kadriye tries to dodge against Beast 1 Kadriye Dodge Roll: 19 + 0 = 19 ( success) Kadriye takes: No damage Kadriye has: 8 hp remaining Kadriye uses retaliate 19+6 = 25/5=5 kadriye does 5 damage to Beast 1
This time Kadriye was swift enough to dodge the incoming attack. the creature had tried to crush her with it's enormous head but the mystic had stepped just of of range. Gritting her teeth she swung her sacred spear and as the curved blade sliced through the air magic pulsed through it. A whiplike stream of fire flung out from the end of it and lashed at the bowed beast's head . It wasn't much but she'd struck a blow for her people.. and her pride.
Qi chittered nervously, the sprite not wanting to leave Kadriye but also realizing that it had no place on this field of war. The best he could do was bat away stray arrows that threatened to distract his companion.

Nuawahn attempts to Dodge! 8+2=10 FULL DAMAGE Nuawahn takes 18 Damage! Healing roll will be in his next post.
"Oggie!" Nuawhan screamed as he was separeated, his slender hands scrabbing frantically towards the guard as he was shoved away, He had no time to react before he was slammed aside by the force of the creatures blow, landing with a hard, painful thud. He whimpered in pain and confusion, coughing as his stomach screamed at the impact. Finally he looked up, gasping for air on a raw throat.
He was lost.
Oggie had let go.
He was lost.
There were people all around, and they were screaming and running and bleeding and hurting. Nuawahn felt isolated, though, and so very alone. He couldn't even see Amma - he didn't know where she had gone off to.
He staggered upright and limped out into the crowd, holding his bruised stomach, his eye beginning to ache with the beginnings of another bruise. He sought seeking someone or something he knew and could understand and grab hold of. Anything to make the chaos make sense...

Nua Casts HEAL on Tahira! 11+7=18/5= 3.6 damage healed!
ladyumbra
Nuawahn heals Tahira for 3.6 damage!
Finding someone you knew in a battle was literally finding a needle in a haystack.
Or, more aptly, finding a piece of hay in a needlestack, considering how much pain was everywhere. Nua just needed a touchstone, someone to stick to and keep track of. Anybody. He was so lost and alone and scared. It was like a forest - a forest of screams - and he had never felt that way before.
It was Nuawahn's lucky day. He recocnized the blonde-haired Alkidike. "Tahi!" he shouted, his face briefly relieved, before he realized she was being battered by a hail of earth and stone. He yelped and limped forward as fast as his screaming muscles would let him. "Here!" he said, shoving a small ball of glittering magic at her. It splashed against her, shimmering, and settled liek water into her wounds.
Two of the beasts stomped forward, swinging out with one of the long appendages on their faces like a whip and struck out at two of the battlers below, their targets seeming to be Aminah and Ogbonna.
The crew on the back of the third beast seemed to be talking to each other, moving their hands and gesturing before nodding in agreement. With a tug on their controlling ropes, the beast reared back and seemed to go into a sudden frenzy, plowing through the crowd and kicking and stomping through whatever it came in contact with. With another quick motion of the ropes from above, it would seem like they had just pulled a trigger once again and the beast seemed to calm itself.
