Chapter One, Part Two: The Road to Brinewall

[Lotofsnow]

Faraway lets out a low whistle, and Neith dives at corby in the doorway.

Damage roll: 1d6+0: 3+0 = 3

I assume that I can 5-foot step?

[Phil]

Owen steps forward as calmly as he can manage, and attempts to strike at the spider in the center of its mass with all his strength.

[Lotofsnow]

Seeing the paladin jump early, Faraway lets out a soft curse before moving beside his friend and following with an attack of his own.

Jeddy aims another bolt, and misses once again.

...on top of the wall...

Corby 1 - 21 (-5hp)
Corby 2 - 13 (-4hp)
S'Vith - 5

S'Vith cracks one of the corbies in the beak (-4hp) but the savage attacks you take in return nearly fell you. (-15hp) You stagger back, barely keeping your feet.

...in the gatehouse...

Gatehouse Initiative List: ShowHide

Corby 3 - 19 (-3hp)
Owen - 17
Faraway - 14
Jeddy - 13
Horcrust - 12
Giant Spider - 5

The corby at the door seems content to block the way, swiping at Neith when the roc swoops in, but doing no damage.  While Jeddy and Horcrust's attacks falter, Owen and Faraway seem to move as one, and kill the giant spider with two mighty swings.  Across the courtyard, you hear a howl.  "You killed my Fang!  I kill you back!"  The creature that set loose the spider appears ready to charge.

The corby at the door again rakes at Neith and again misses twice.

(everyone is up.)

[Lotofsnow]

Neith engages the corby with a full attack of her own.

[SpamHead]

Eagle summon (for flanks).

[TheTick]

Neith's attacks very nearly rip the corby to shreds - it stands, but only just.  Horcrust begins the now-familiar motions and incantations of a summoning spell.

[SteveRogers]

S'Vith grunts in pain and quickly retreats to his companions, returning the way he came.  Praying to any god who might listen the foul birds not follow him.

[Porteiro]

Jeddy runs over to S'Vith, healing him 4 points of damage
1d8+2 = 2 + 2 = 4

[Phil]

Owen loses himself in battle, and runs headlong at the creature who had set loose the spider.

Faraway trots up alongside Owen. He readies his scimitar to slash the spider's master should it indeed charge.
