Frantically, Arbogast scrambles to his feet, his task made no easier by the sword blows that hammer down on the Dwarf-wrought iron that reinforced his shield.  His helm has been knocked askew by the orc's first strike, and he doffs it rather than take the time to readjust.  Finally, though, he regains his footing and stands, mud-covered and with blood in his eyes, but with axe and shield at the ready.


:ooc: I don't have access to my books at the moment, but I recall that you can regain a small number of Endurance points by taking an action to remove a helmet during a battle.  Would one of you guys be able to look that up for me, please?

:ooc: You don't gain back Endurance, Paul - a character recovers 3 Fatigue points. So I am not sure it will serve you to remove the helm. It is on page 177.

Letting her bow fall from her hand, Esgalwen took Nimronyn's hilt in a two-handed grip and swung the blade in a deadly arc. The orc's head was quickly lopped from its body.

:ooc: Esgalwen hits with a 19 :%: success for 17 :<3: loss. [KILL]

OOC: if memory serves removing the helm does not restore endurance. What it does is change your encumbrance to possibly bring you under the threshold of weariness so all your dice count. 
THE GAME MUST GO ON!

Hathcyn
Great Spear
2h.  4d :00: 9 :dmg: Edge 8 Injury 18

Telcontar

Hathcyn released the horn so that it dangled at his side from it's cord. Gripping his great spear he entered the fray. There would have been questionable morality in killing the orc outright back at the last site, but here he let his wrath and hatred of these beasts run its full course.

Rolled 1d12 : 11, total 11

Rolled 3d6 : 1, 4, 1, total 6
THE GAME MUST GO ON!

Hathcyn
Great Spear
2h.  4d :00: 9 :dmg: Edge 8 Injury 18

Telcontar

In the mud and the mire, and as a result of his great wounds Hathcyn flailed about more like a wounded boar than a man.
THE GAME MUST GO ON!

Well, that's what I get for relying on rules I kinda remember.  Thanks for setting me straight, guys. 

Never mind about the mechanics - I'm happy to say that Arbogast spends the round getting back to his feet.  Let's keep this moving.

:ooc: Yikes! I didn't expect you all to miss as you did! This might be a more dangerous fight than I first thought.
