Exhaling loudly through the jowls it bore, the monstrous incarnation and mingling of man and beast turned the sword over in one of its hands.  The kobolds had clawed, teared, tore, and slashed at it with everything the had and it put nary a meaningful dent in its flesh, nothing in comparison to what that accursed dragonspawn had. But the bite of their weapons and the felling of their bodies by allies drove the thrall of nature's wrath to turn wildly around, still hungering for its next kill, drawn on by the light invoked before it realized there was nothing left in this portion of the cave.

[i]"Enough!"[/i] It roared, eyes angrily searching and falling upon the young priestess and the tendril that held her, now basked in light, [i]"You will have what you want, creature. And we will slay more of these vermin wherever they dare stop us just as we had this time."[/i] The obvious tone of Brannor came, albeit twisted and growled through pointed, carnivorous teeth. 

This alternate form of him lived and breathed violence, a weapon of flesh and steel united, blessed by otherworldly power, but it was ill tempered and poorly trained. The events of Greenest had increasingly refined it, of course, yet it was no match for its nature. Nothing could hide the red stains that coated the pale fur or how it recklessly embraced its injuries, sustaining itself by some other means; if the past was any indication, the man who was still somewhere at its core would need sleep and sleep long after this, well after washing himself clean of the violence he had done while in it. Perhaps in due time the pendulum of behavior could be better shaped, better controlled, although first they would need be out of this wretched cave - after they dealt with these eggs, which seemed to be only now after feeding the thing which demanded a trade.

Brannor will ready an action to charge and intercept the next set of kobolds he suspects might be coming if they enter his line of sight. He spends his reaction to do so, but will make two greatsword attacks using Multiattack following his move once triggered. He cannot take attacks of opportunity until the start of his next turn.[/hider]
