Round 1:
Gerald: 161 (-10)
Guard?: 147 (-20 now)
The guard shambles forward, and Gerald hammers into him. A bolt of electricity lances from the guard's spear and strikes him back, however.

If Arania's eyes could possibly get wider, they did so as the guard began to glow. She took a step back, watching Gerald go in to fight. Sorcery...this was the first she had seen of it, and now the tales Benjen and Kalvin had told her seemed more firmly rooted in the realm of reality.

Round 2:
Gerald: 149
Guard: ? (-40)
As Gerald goes to finish the guard, the pink mist nearly vanishes, and a bolt of lightning sears through his armor, turning it red with heat.

Round 1: Arania and Catherine VS the Guard from hell
Arania: 54
Catherine: 45
Guard: NPC -40
Round 1:
Arania: 95
Catherine: 105
Guard: 101
The three fight it out, the small shocks from the possessed guard no longer able to do more than cause a faint buzzing in the women.

Round 2:
Arania: 122
Catherine: 81 (-10)
Guard: 103 (-50)
Catherine slips up and is struck, her leg gushing blood, but Arania, gaining a bit of confidence at last, dives in and stabs hard, catching the guard on his already-wounded shoulder.

Round 3:
Arania: 149
Catherine: 64 (-20)
Guard: 89 (-85 now)
The guard stabs Catherine again, and she crumples on the ground, but Arania is smelling blood now, and she buries her dagger to the hilt in his side. He should be dead but the mist keeps him moving, and Arania scrambles disarmed a second, before Ellaria kicks her a fallen man's short sword.

Final Round:
Arania: 142
Catherine: 29
Guard: 19
Catherine moves to the side as Arania, now with a longer blade, savagely cuts into the man's neck. She's not strong enough to take off his head, but the sword sticks in the vertebra and blood empties from him, quickly.

Arania felt an odd sort of satisfaction as her sword bit into the man's neck. She yanked the blade free, not flinching away from the subsequent spay of blood. She turned immediately to Catherine, kneeling at her side. "Cath...are you alright?"

"I'll...live, yes." Catherine's shoulder and leg are bleeding, and Meera Stark grabs some of the warm clothing they'd brought. "My..son..." Off to the side, the guard Gerald Bolton twitches and rolls a bit. "Nice job, Arania..."
+6, yay for low weapons scores

Hell, I didn't even know you had a weapons skill. Reyna never seemed like the type to wield a blade so I never even bothered checking. Probably would have made things easier...or harder.

"Thanks," she muttered, not looking at him. "I'm sure he's alright, Catherine. The walls of the castle were more substantial than the rest." She wasn't sure, at all, but what else could she say? At long last she looked up at Gerald and the other women. She smiled nervously at them. "Is there anything we can use to bandage her up? And then I suppose we should ride down and see what the floodwaters left us with."

Reyna staggered to her feet. She was very much dazed and confused as to what had happened. She saw the man lying dead and didn't remember seeing him fall. Then she remembered the castle and the great wave.
"Oh Drowned God..."
"We could rip some cloth off our own clothing," she suggested. "There's not much else."

"We could use the dead guards' clothing," Ellaria says.

"Of course."
Reyna knelt and began ripping up the guard's clothing.
"How much do we need?"
