Lloyd: Into the Jaws of Darkness, Round 01

Lloyd heared Jarek’s shout of alarm and the succeeding scream after that.

Darn it Jarek! You just had to keep yourself that far!

The half-elf looks up the tunnel and sees Jarek carefully making his retreat from a cave opening. Thanks to his elven heritage, even from the dim light, Lloyd is able to see the forms of the three repulsive looking creatures attacking the human.

“Gryffin! Jarek’s in trouble. I need to know what we’re up against!”

Lloyd takes a second to look for his eladrin friend. He finds him likewise lurking in the outer edge of the sunrod’s light.

No help there. Even the paladin seems to be stunned by the sudden appearance and ferocity of the attack of the creatures.

The half-elf grabs his sword and slashes at the creature attacking Arao. He wounds the creaure’s shoulder with his blade and then manages to push it back with his shield, giving the paladin just enough time to recover.

“Arao! You take this one. I’ll take the one attacking our ranger!”

Lloyd then scoops up a rock with the tip of his sword and flicks it towards the creature attacking Jarek. The throw was pretty feeble to do any damage but it did caught it’s attention. The creature reared its head back at the young warlord, its jaws spread wide and dripping with the ranger’s blood.
