Turin, cleric

Turin isn't too pleased with Toad 4. Didn't your mother tell you not to stick out your tongue at people, he yells as he closes the distance and beats at it with his mace!

[Fools Jest]

Immalor, Elf

Attempting to make up for his poor balance on these swampy grounds, Immalor will swing his weapon with renewed vigor.

[Vargr1105]

Balfa the dwarf is now cursing loudly in the language of his people. Amid the cussing he voices a vow he shan't move until the frog-beast he faces dies.

[kwll]

Zavenorrin feels blood flow through his eyes again as his eyes flash at his toad foe. Gripping his spear with renewed vitality, he avidly seeks revenge!

[Scalydemon]

You stand breathing heavily in the swampy underbrush behind a Black Temple. Dead bloated corpses of Giant Yelow Toads lie strewn about. There is oozing gore on your blades. The sun is starting to reach past it's peak in the sky overhead wraught with wispy clouds. It is 3pm.

What are your actions?

Eggi

Looking to Zavenorrin... "Ye be fer bein OK friend? Ya gave that toad o'yers a good lickin!!" Not wanting to 'hurt' his manhood, but desiring to share his compassion and caring.

He thinks about his pun... "a good lickin... BAH-HAHA!" as he laughs out loud.

Eggi looks around at his group of companions... "Everyone else OK? Fer whaht it's werth! Ye'all made Eggi proud today - tah fight along side ye! Good fightin'ye were! Mebbe them stoopid toads gots a lair'roun here?!"

Eggi begins searching in the direction where the toads came from - IF - his companions seem to be in good health & spirits.

[Jeffery St. Clair]

Leon examines the sleeping toads, trying to determine if he can exterminate them before they awaken. He lifts his gory dagger to his brow in a self-mocking salute to his comrades-in-arms.

Eggi

Eggi, watching Leon, feels like a fool that he let that 'opportunity' pass him! He also joins Leon is exterminating the sleeping lizards (amphibians) so they do not 'awake' and cause more strife!... then he looks for the direction they came from to determine if they have a 'lair' and possible "goodies" in said lair.

"Good call, Leon! I let me lust fer 'baubles' direct me intentions... but finishin off these bass-turds in prioriteh!"

[kwll]

Zavenorrin smiles at Eggi for his pun, half amused and half contrite. He attempts to tend to his wounds while the others are taking care of the giant toads that he put to sleep. The biting he received on his leg is still awfully painful. Seeing his companion stray away in search of their lair, he says: "Attendez! Aren't you willing to explore this church first before drifting away? In any case the lair could, if it exists, contain more of these monsters. It would be a good idea to be better prepared..."

Pondering the words of Zavenorrin, Eggi restrains from searching for the "nest"... "Aye, good point lad. Let's be fer makin sure we're all hunerd persent b'for we search fer more'of'em!"
