Baruss Following closely behind Lexianna Baruss receives the location of more Hands. Five ahead in the courtyard. It looks like Gaul's team is headed to the ramparts where three are. Breaking into the courtyard they are in direct sight. Baruss shifting the muscles in his body and digging his heels into the ground propels himself into the fight by crashing into one and tripping another. The Ninja The ninja running in tow with Smough follows Gaul. "The bite down is a powerful poison they can use if subdued to induce death. When rendered unconscious or killed they become momentarily ethereal and their injuries, ailments, etc. are healed." Smough explains. "If we can subdue them, Raven can remove their forced loyalty to The Father." The Ninja spots them. They stand ready to intercept. The Ninja draws his blade and prepares for combat.
