Oh dear... The giant rats are neither frightened easily nor afraid of pain. Furthermore, the congregation of smaller vermin is even more alarming, somehow! Mauricio lets out a cry of pain as the giant rat bites deep with its horrid fangs. Luckily, it seems that his body is not growing hot from the flush of filth fever.
Somehow, in the midst of the chaos, Mauricio's peripheral vision catches something... indistinct. One hand slips from his crossbow and to his medicine pouch, pulling forth a clean-smelling powder that Mauricio rubs on Kharesh's wounds. The dwarf's injuries don't seem to be slowing him down that much, but can't be too sure... "That corner, master dwarf," Mauricio points out over Kharesh's shoulder to the northwest. "I suspect that stonework's veracity." Reaching quickly for his knife, Mauricio stabs at his gnawing assailant.
Spoiler: OOCMauricio lets go of the crossbow with one hand as a free action to attempt Battle Medicine on Kharesh: (1d20+5)[8] DC 15 to Heal
He then Interacts to draw his dagger and stabs at R2.
