Cormac screams as he charges towards the wolf, his faith in Arawn guiding him towards the enemy, his dagger held forward. The magnificence of his action is swiftly destroyed as Cormac trips over a small rock, flailing his arms and stumbling around in what could only be described as something similar to a drunken, dancing chicken. He regains his footing and looks up to see the ugly face of the wolf and the end of a spear.

Wayward Son and Helly both of you need to roll your 50% miss chance to see if your errant sling stones target somebody else. If yes then roll to-hit again. When that is determined we're back to the top of the order and round 2.

Round 2
Werewolves, Brule, and townsfolk, Urash, & Ker
Rhenmyr
Borric, Cormac, & Mab
Marcán

Mab's sling-stone sails harmlessly over everyone's head, through the open gate, and ricochets off of the wooden walkways of the village.

Dart in hand, Urash waits for a clear shot at one of the guards or the monstrosity itself.

If any enemy is no longer engaged in melee with an ally, Urash will throw three darts in quick order.

[1d20+1] = 16+1 = 17
Damage: [1d3] = 2

[1d20+1] = 13+1 = 14
Damage: [1d3] = 2


[1d20+1] = 14+1 = 15
Damage: [1d3] = 1

(in the second round)
Urash whips three darts in quick succession and hits all three times, striking one of the previously uninjured shapeshifter/bodyguards.

Did my arrow that hit (8dmg) disrupt Ru's spell? Is he chanting again/still?

It definitely disrupted his spell. In response he is starting a new chant this round (spell takes effect at start of next round).

Yeah okay no.

Marcán stays in the back guarding the rear like a intelligent cowardly man and finishes his chant.

The four guardsmen stab out at Cormac, Borric, and the two townspeople still standing and engaged in melee. Running up the causeway are half-dozen men with daggers drawn, shouting and full of blood-lust (they will be in melee range next round).

4 bodyguards attack [1d20+4] = 18+4 = 22, [1d20+4] = 1+4 = 5, [1d20+4] = 5+4 = 9, [1d20+4] = 8+4 = 12

One of the spear-wielding bodyguards stabs out and hits the last gate guard and drops him unceremoniously.

The son of Gorma reaches down and snatches up the fallen guard's spear and stabs Gorma's son spear attack [1d20] = 13, damage [1d6] = 2 and one of the bodyguards raises his spear and deflects the point harmlessly aside. Brule rears back with Ulfheonar's spear and draws blood from one of Syelle Ru's bodyguards that are blocking the gate. Urash attacks with his the wolf spear [1d20+4] = 11+4 = 15 damage [1d6+2] = 3+2 = 5

Ker launches a slingtone and pelts Syelle Ru in the chest, just as he begins to gesticulate and start another incantation. Shortly thereafter, Rhenmyr fires two more arrows over the heads of the bodyguards. One pincushions Syelle's raised arm and the other embeds itself in his shoulder. He howls in pain and turns away from the gatehouse and starts to lope northward towards the town square. Cormac takes advantage of the confusion and stabs out with his enchanted dagger and wounds one of the bodyguards.

(Marcán's battle chant will take effect next round.)

Borric and Mab still act this round. Syelle Ru is turning to run, two of the bodyguard's are wounded and two are not. They still have the gate sealed off.

One of Syelle Ru's bodyguards slips and drops his spear. As it clatters to the ground he snarls in rage and his body starts to convulse much as Syelle Ru did before his transformation
(it will take all of next round to transform).
