Haldar thrusts his spear at the goblin directly before him (#7), twice if necessary. If the goblin is dropped by the first attack he will step up (1 square SE) and attack the next (#3).


EDIT (Add Volokkor's actions):
If goblin #11 is still up when Volokkor's turn comes up he will trip and bite it.  If not then he will move in on the warchanter, preferably with someone else adjacent to it for the flank, and bite.

Shyla, reinvigorated after downing a pair of the goblins, continues to press her attack.

Paiter walks up to the goblin next to Weox and cuts it down in a single blow and then turns to Goblin 3, raises his cutlass to point at it and sneers. The goblin flinches slightly, but doesn’t seem to be otherwise affected.

(click to show/hide)

Weoxgyld’s javalin misses the Warchanter, spitting up sparks as it’s iron head glances off the cobblestones next to her.

Divia Mal heads into the cathedral. She doesn’t see anyway to the roof at first glance, but there are exits and windows on the other side of the cathedral. If she runs she can get across in one round of free running or two rounds of double moves.  I’ll need Athletics with synergy from Acrobatics and a -2 for Annie.

Alden steps towards the nearest goblin (number 11), swinging his longsword. The goblin narrowly dodges, falling to the ground for a moment before scampering back to it’s feat. His return stroke goes wide however.

(click to show/hide)

Goblin Warrior 9 looks blissful as it chews the pickle, them suprised as it remeberis it’s in a battle. It screams with it’s mouthful and charges at Shlya, swarming her with Goblin 7. She ignores the first pitiful attack, but the second takes some effort on her part. Not much, but some.

(click to show/hide)

Haldar skewers the Goblin ahead of him, the little beats squealing for a moment before dying. The Ulfen berserker then shifts, bringing his spear around to impale goblin 3 which was focusing on Paiter’s theatrics. Haldar feels something, almost like a caress, in the back of his mind, laughing, reveling in the rage in his veins.

The Warchanter steps to the side and strikes with her whip, it’s leather cutting into her skin as it wraps around her left ankle. The goblin grins and pulls Eloise’s feet out from under her, sending her crashing to the ground and dropping her sword. She crows her success as she yanks on the whip again, dragging Eloise next to her. The goblin bitch leers at her and whips her again, muttering some sort of benediction to Lamashtu, and cutting Eloise with her knife leaving the noblewoman unarmed, shaken, and wounded.

(click to show/hide)

Goblin Warrior 10 is dead.

Goblin Warrior 3 is also dead.

Teo moves, tumbling past Goblin 9 to come up behind it, cutting the little freak in two, a brief flash of Iomedae’s light flashing from his sword.

Annie clings to Divia.

OOC: Ok, what is about to happen is only occuring due to the nature of the medium and because, frankly, I think it makes for a moment of awesome when I rolled it out. If Eloise wants to do something else, we’ll retcon.

Eloise summons everything she has, pushing through the tears and pain and fear and twists herself around and slams her heel into the cackling little monster's knee, sending the foul thing to the ground next to her, the goblin screaming in pain as she clutches her knee.

(click to show/hide)

Argan sidesteps goblin 11 and then moves up and takes advantage of Eloise’s action to attack the warchanter. She desperately twists, avoiding the worst of it, but only just.

(click to show/hide)

Goblin Warrior 11 sidesteps Eloise and jabs his dogslicer at Argan, missing. Argan’s finely honed reflexs let him take advantage of the goblin’s over extension to smack the goblin with the pommel of his sword. The goblin stops dead, standing still for just a moment before it teeters and then falls onto it’s face.

(click to show/hide)

Shlya moves to flank the warchanter, swinging her sword, but missing.

Volokkor runs past Argan and lunges at the warchanter on the ground, missing and bashing his snout into the ground.

(click to show/hide)

Goblin Warrior 7 is dead.

At this point, I’ll post once fopoy, Catodon, MisterAnderson, and vardeman tell me what they’re doing.

Paiter hesitates to see what his employer will do.
Seeing his javelin go wide Weoxgyld roars with frustration. With great easy strides he glides over to where the warchanter is, Paiter trots after him cutlass bloodied and ready for more.

If the warchanter's still standing, Argan drops his shield and grabs the little goblin by the back of her neck before she can do any more harm:

Haldar, flinging the dead goblin from his spear, turns and spies the leader of these gods-forsaken goblins in a knock-down, knife-slashing, knee-kicking brawl with the noblewoman and he lets out a primal roar as he charges forward plunging his spear into the squirming little beast.

Volokkor will shake his head clearing it.

If the rest of the party haven't managed to subdue or slay the Warchanter, then I'll probably have to revise.

Eloise pulls herself up to her feet, kicks the goblin, while blinking tears out of her eyes.
Once she calms down, she takes a moment to retrieve the goblins whip (though she's not entirely sure why), before remembering there are other people present.
With only a slight quiver in her voice, "Thank you, I think I managed to somehow offend the little wretch. I suggest we move on and see if we can help prevent these creatures from overrunning the town."

Weoxgyld moves to the goblin.

Paiter tags along.

Divia is in the cathedral, we’ll get back to her.

Alden moves and attacks the warchanter, who still manages to avoid a telling blow.

(click to show/hide)

Haldar runs up, belowing in rage and stabs the warchanter, catching her in the shoulder, above the heart. She hisses in pain.

The Warchanter gets to her feat and lunges at Haldar with her dogslicer, barely missing him.

OOC: Ok, Teo's not going to be able to join the scum due to frontage issues. Annie's with Divia seeing what's happening in the graveyard. Looks like the Lady from Taldor get one last shot in.

Eloise propels herself to her feet, angered that this goblin didn't just hurt her but left her humiliated on the floor, forgetting about her nearby sword she claws at the goblin with her neatly manicured nails.
