    Two raptors - the large female hunt leader that Mor'Lag almost throttled, and a smaller creature blistering from the corrosive magics in the area - launch a co-ordinated strike on the ogress. The smaller creature moves to flank, and lunges in to bite at Mor'Lag's ankle with the intention of bringing them down to a more fatally accessible level. But in the midst of the lunge, the earth cracks and expresses a vertical plane of stone just three feet high. While no monument in itself, it's the perfect height to cause the raptor to smash its face into the obstruction and stagger back, dazed and missing teeth. But the hunt leader bounces up, strikes with is foreclaws to provoke a block from the ogre's arm, then slashes at her midsection with its large, hooked toe talons!

    That'll be a toughness check for Mor'Lag. Raptors have critical 18-20, and that attack was an 18, so the DC to resist will be a muscular 24. Zachary and Isaera can go, now at initiative 8; and then Mor'Lag at initiative 3! Present targets are the 2 minions and 2 non-minion raptors in melee with Mor'Lag (also in a decaying magical field); and the two minion raptors coming from the north east, towards the two drivers, Oscar and other-Oscar. A reminder that for a combat where I have a lot of rolls to make in succession, rather than clutter up this thread with 6 posts in a row, I'm posting rolls here.
