Two are down! I repeat! Two are down! Game over, man! Game over! Run while you can!

...probably something I would say if I was there myself. I'm actually scared for Kenzo now. Because the thing is chasing him with an axe that just cleaved through two people.

They still have a chance to dodge, possibly.

Well, Maybird does,

@Lalliman hopefully Garrok has something he can do to block the swing! The swing's reach is far too long and Garrok isn't fast enough to be able to dodge it. Think of something! XD

@IN Can Maybird grab onto the axe and perch on top of it? Of course, from the momentum behind the swing, its gonna be hard, but he could grab to the none bladed part of the axe and make sure he doesn't hit his head on the bladed part?

He'd be jerked wildly around if he does manage to get a grip on it, but it might put a ton of force on his hand as if he just got smacked by a blunt force weapon...because he did. ;)

Collision seems inevitable. However, it's an axe, not a sword. If i go forward instead of backward, i'll get hit by the shaft instead of the blade, which is still painful but obviously preferable. Besides, the closer i am to the axis, the weaker the impact, because physics.

Garrock could always try and jump over it or limbo it...
Failing that, try running between its legs (take the ball and chain with you, and try to tie its legs up).

Do the later enemies learn of the tactics we use? Like if we do great plans, if we try to do them against a similar beast later on, they'll become sub-par plans instead of great ones?

EDIT: Holy crap my post it long! Also, I'm not sure but I think I accidentally wrote an auto hit in the very last paragraph, please tell me so that I may edit it, since I'm not really sure what an auto-hit is

@Mikellh Ironically, you did an auto-hit in the first paragraph, not the last, when you said the dagger got stuck in its leg. In the arena, whether or not an attack hits is always up to the defender. It is a very reasonable assumption though, so you could ask ImportantNobody to permit it this time.

More problematic is the last two paragraphs though, where you assume the creature to turn around and chase Kenzo, while the second prerequisite for that (Garrok getting out of the way) hasn't been met yet. Garrok may have no choice but to charge forward into his attacker in order to dodge the axe, which would change the creature's future actions.
Rping with so many people can be quite confusing

@KurtyKool The creature is only 4 feet taller than Garrok, so fitting between its legs is unlikely. He could try to duck, yes. I'll think about it a little more, cause having it aggro on Kenzo would certainly be beneficial.

Just throwing suggestions out there.BTW, IN, is the creature hairy? And is its hair flammable?

@Lalliman Good point, though I was following up my post on IN's previous post. Perhaps the beast could have taken a few steps before getting charged by Garrok? Since IN had already stated that it was going after Kenzo

@KurtyKool I think IN described the monster as having pale skin, which means its not covered in hair

Well, he made an if-statement. "If the monster was able to (...) with the rage of an axe murderer."
That means, if i'm not mistaken, that it only turns around if both Maybird and Garrok are no longer in direct combat with him as a result of the swing. If that prerequisite isn't met, the creature's next action remains unconfirmed and we'll have to wait for IN to state what it does next.

And yes if the creature had fur it'd be mentioned. Though there's no mention of it being bold, so it might have hair on its head.

They only learn if they see or deduce what happened. That's one benefit of using stealth rather then running around flashing your moves to everyone.
Auto-hit would be writing down you damaging an opponent in your post. In most battles you must allow your opponent to take the damage in their post should they not be able to block or dodge it. Auto-hits will be allowed for most enemies in here as long as it is done realistically. This mini-boss I'll allow slight leeway here and there.

It's an Auto-hit but I'll accept it due to it's reasonableness.
That second part of the post, as mentioned, can stay as is unless Garrok does something to invalidate the agro switching to Kenzo.

It's meant to be completely hairless.

I almost don't wanna mention this because of the risk in the spike of difficulty...

but, wasn't there mention that the beast's roar might call reinforcements to his location?

It'll be fine, i've found a way to get him to de-aggro on me.
And lol, Joe put the witch in a cage. She can probably fit between the bars though, unless it happens to be Jeremy's cell.

Edit: Speaking of Jeremy, got any ideas for him to contribute to the fight? I suppose we could throw him onto the creature's head, but without a weapon that wouldn't do much good.

Did you lock the cage on her, Joe? And if you wanted her contained we would assume it was Jeremy's cell. Although he does say he doesn't think it will do any good, if he did it that way it would work. Any other cell she would slip through.

EDIT: Oh, and you guys can't control people's character like that without permission (picking her up and dragging her away), but I give permission due to it being funny.

Hey guys. To get things moving again, I'm about to have my turn... Does anyone have anything that they want done. ATM, I'm thinking of just crying in a corder and doing some character development. Perhaps I can run and grab a torch, but it won't do too much good given the lack of fur. Perhaps if we start piling some hay from the cells? (If there is any...)
