[h3]Vaal’s Turn | Init: 18[/h3] [b]HP[/b] 7/7 + 3 | Status: None He wasn't in the mood to slay them. Which felt odd for some reason. Like... something instinctual. That did give him an idea. A shot in the dark with the woman there, but worth trying. He gave his quarterstaff a crack on the ground, to draw attention. [color=00aeef]"HALT!"[/color] He barked out in draconic. He hoped he appeared as something with authority to them. He'd thrust a claw out to them angrily, and then towards the buildings. [color=00aeef]"WHAT ARE YOU FOOLS DOING! Chasing the scale-less hatclings like you just hatched from your own eggs last night! Scare the cretin off and be done with it! She shall be someone elses problem! Get the loot! Grab the Shinies!"[/color] The kobolds hesitate momentarily, looking at each other with confused expressions. Why is this white-dressed kobold ordering them about? A few of them lower their daggers and slings, heads cocked, looking at you. Then one of them bangs his chest and replies, "We given orders! Kill big ones, catch little ones! You no order us!" The kobold inhaled. Well, it seems the kobolds aren't as slavish as he remembered them. As he remembered him? That last thought caused the kobold some hesitation, and he frowned. He looked to the group of kobolds. Counting them off. Noting their weapons. He even noted the family that had ran passed. And the woman with a bloodied spear. Eight to three were not odds he enjoyed. They'd surround them, and kill them. And if the daggers didn't do the trick, the Slings certainly will. Hopefully the others see this. And are willing to try and flip the odds. [color=00aeef]"A pitty then,"[/color] The kobold responded to the group in draconic. [color=00aeef]"I'd rather avoid a dance of blood with kin. But I do have my word to keep."[/color] With that he pulled the door open and kicked some rubble behind it to help hold it open. He ducked behind the door for cover from the slings and called out to the other two. This time in common with his slurred accent [color=00aeef]"Come! To me! Cassandra inside! Shield Maiden, To me! If they surround you, I can not say it will end well!"[/color] Hopefully a bottle neck would help resolve some problems. And if they decide to run after easier pray... well they'd just be shot in the back. [hider=Turn Summary]Vaal makes an intimidation check!
