Ankt had not heard what the hooded man had said in time for these beasts were on him within an instant and it surprised the lizardman nonetheless. Ankt instinctively grabbed one that had jumped at him and immediately threw him into another before he drew his sword, snarling at the beasts who were encircling him. This was certainly not good, though a smile came to the face of the Aahari warrior as this may yet prove to be a challenge. Ankt feigned an attack on one, causing it to stumble back but allowing one to try to go from the back. It was something he would expect from a bunch of pack animals so he turned to let the hound land on his sword, killing it without putting much effort into it. Of course, his left eye caught a few preparing to pounce so he kindly grabbed the impailed corpse on his sword, quickly pulled the sword out, before slamming the corpse into a small group in order to at least know to knock them back. It may also be a great idea to intimidate them, though the bats may awake if he were to roar so he would have to hiss aggressively at the while staying on his toes. [hider=Actions] Ankt engages and allows himself to be surrounded, he only kills one while trying to get them all to back off. He even tries to intimidate them by hissing. [/hider]
