You hastily roll to the side into the hay to avoid the thrown hay. You behind the thrown hay a man with leather armor. You skid to a stop into another man knocking him off balance as he yelps in surprise. At that moment you see him drop the struggling figure he was holding. IT looked like Maddie. The guy topples over onto you causing your arm to be pinned against your side by your own and this guys weight. You hear a curse as the guy tries to hold on to you calling his friends to help.
Faerra flies into a rage and brings to bear the full force of her strength, roaring furiously. As she tries to force herself free, she bellows as loud as she can. "Run, child!"
OOC: I'm not sure about my exact predicament, I'll hand off a bunch of unmodified rolls to you, and stats. If I'm pinned then I'm making grapple checks to break free, if I'm not pinned I'm attacking with my greataxe.
+9 on grapple checks
+9 on melee attacks
+12 on damage rolls
Unmodified d20s:
19, 9, 16, 3, 11, 19
Unmodified d12s:
8, 9, 5, 2, 7. 1
I have a total of 9 rounds of rage. I have 2 extra HP for those 9 rounds. My STR is at 26 (+8) and my CON is at 22 (+6). My AC drops by 2, so I think that puts it at 13.
Faerra flies into a rage and bodily lifts the man off her with her greataxe. She looks over at three other men circling her. You hear Maddie behind you yell duck. You roll to your left as you watch two arrows sprout from the guy in front of you. He lets out a groan and crumples to his feet. The guy you rolled closer to attacks you with a bastard sword doing 7 points of damage. You can see two other guys up in the loft and one coming up the ladder.
You swing your great axe around to attack the guy but he evades your attack. He misses on his attack on you. Your next attack catches him square and he goes down. You hear a groan behind you and then a loud thud from below. You turn in time to see the last man trying for your unprotected flank. You swing your axe but are off balance and miss him as badly as he missed you. You get a better chance of hitting him on the next round and he falls to the floor. You hear a scream behind you and see a guy dragging Maddie out of the barn by her hair. You do not see any other attackers in the barn from where your standing.
Faerra hurries over and slides down the ladder, charging out the door after the man who had Maddie before her adrenaline fails her. She charges at him, swinging her axe if she gets the chance to do so without hitting Maddie, simply tackling him if he tries to use the girl as a shield.
Faerra's fingers loosen on her axe and she ceases moving, though her muscles are tense and ready to spring forward in an instant. Her grip on her weapon is relaxed, but still deadly.
"If you so much as scratch the child, I will slaughter you and your men like a fox in a henhouse."
OOC: I considered slashing the net and making a move for him anyways, allowing the girl to die, but then, I figure I don't know what's going on, maybe these men are my allies, and the child was coming to kill me. It's possible I just slaughtered some potential allies in that barn, and they only attacked me because I was... Well, in a rage.
