NeziulI know, you mentioned that I had a strange way of attracting fast posting RPers.
Have you seen my other RPs before (either here or the old Roleplayer guild)?
Just wondering if you were using those as a reference or something for that statement XD

Posted. Had to edit it because Ryu posted while I was working on my post. But yea, unless something horrible happens, this battle is almost over.
First came the Khopesh, leeching more of Leifr's life force from him as the blade cleaved through the air, attempting to cut the bandit with its thirsty blade, the axe bandit now being flanked on two sides thanks to Fiore and Leifr.
Leifr Attack: 6 + 12 Talent + 2 Weapon + 3 Flanking -1 Bloodied = 22
The blade swung through the air, and would have been parried by the man's axes, but having to deal with Leifr on his horse and Fiore both at once was a bit too much for his currently slightly bloodied self, the numbers in this case allowing the blade to get past the bandit's guard just enough for Fiore to cut the bandit with the thirsty blade. Following Leifr's blade and a cry from the man as the thirsty blade found his blood and flesh came a flash of horse hooves towards the man as the horse, during the charge, attacked as well. Unfortunately the horse hooves were a bit easier to parry in this case for the extremely bloodied, axe wielding bandit, who looked just as about a little less bad off than Fiore did, although he only barely parried the hooves.
Still, now Fiore and Lyrisa still had an opportunity to attack, the man with the crossbow almost done with reloading the ranged weapon and Fiore, instead of waiting to counterattack this time, decided to just go ahead and strike the bandit with the sword and shield, his very, very weak self making it a bit harder for his strike to land, but he would attempt to strike nonetheless.
Fiore Attack: 9 + 16 Talent + 1 Weaponry - 3 Bloodied = 23
The blade struck true enough, getting past the man's guard despite Fiore's condition, stabbing him in the center. The man, in a cry of pain, went down, but may or may not have been still alive. In fact, he looked more unconscious than anything, as if the man's armor barely saved him from a mortal blow that would cause him to begin bleeding out. Still, there was not enough time to worry about such things right now as Fiore, after his attack, moved towards the crossbowman, who was almost finished with reloading his crossbow, eyes widening a bit as the cut up Fiore moved towards him.

Nope. Moving is a Simple Action unless you are moving a really far distance, which given that you are on a horse a distance of just 10 feet is not really that far.
So your horse can get the Free Attack from before.
Yea, that is because you can't control the entire scene of the fighting, just what your character does, which is nice because it prevents you from automatically knowing who is going to win or having to either
A: plan the enemy's ass getting kicked or
B: Plan your own ass getting kicked.

None of the three bandits standing are mounted. The only bandit that is down is the one with just the broadsword
If I had to choose, go after the melee fighters. The crossbowmen can't really hit Fiore right now that easily due to him being in melee (or so you are free to assume anyway).
Either way though, if you want Fiore to live, I suggest rushing to his aid.

Yea... so will I---
Tried to say that with a straight face... I couldn't.
I'm the DM, so I totally don't want my players to get slaughtered die so easily.

Hey, you learned from your mistakes. (it was either drop your weapon, hit yourself, or hit Fiore. You got the option of hitting Fiore on the random dice roll).
But you did actually learn from your mistakes. Got a free point of XP into Melee Weaponry, bringing it up in Rank, all at Fiore's expense >:3

Our first Fumble, yay ^^
And its Lyrisa :3
Also... Ryu... you Maaayyy.... or may not need to get that other standby character out (wow, first combat and we already have a highly potential character death, this is awesome X3)

Lyrisa would angle herself perfectly then whip the bandit from the safe distance that the reach weapon not really meant for parrying had. The whip also wouldn't really be best for short distance attacking either, but for attacking from a small distance of five feet away it was pretty good, even if its damage wasn't that great.
Lyrisa Melee Weaponry: 1 + 7 Talent - 11 = -3 (Fumble)
Lyrisa was a scholar, not a fighter. Well, she could fight, but apparently not really well. It was a mistake to learn from though, if they all survived. A whip was a complicated weapon to use and Lyrisa wasn't really a trained combatant, so when she tried to snap the whip perhaps it was just a mistake this one time, but instead of snapping the whip at the bandit she somehow managed to accidentally whip Fiore with the whip, managing to get him somewhat decently with the weapon on accident.
On the bandit's counterattack, the first one with the sword and shield saw Fiore get whipped and took advantage of this opportunity to try and get in an attack himself as well. Luckily Fiore managed to parry this blow away once again despite him getting whipped by Lyrisa's mistake. Still, Fiore was ready and he had prepared for this attack, getting in a much more accurate counterattack after he was attacked.
Fiore Riposte: 11 + 15 Talent + 1 Weapon = 27
Fiore's Rapier hit on the mark, cutting the man deep, putting him in even worse shape now than before. While the crossbowman could have gone after Lyrisa, he decided that, with her poor handling of her own weapon, but was currently reloading his weapon as quickly as he could, crossbows not exactly being the quickest weapons to reload after all.
The dual axe wielding bandit, seeing his pal in trouble, decided to attack Fiore as well. He rushed forward, wielding both axes as he brandished them both, attempting to attack Fiore now that he had two opponents upon him. The first axe was easily parried, but the second axe got swiftly past Fiore's guard, cutting him very deeply, his armor only absorbing a small portion of the blow. Fiore was now in incredibly bad shape, but despite that he was still somehow standing even though he could collapse at any moment now, able to fight despite his incredibly deep wound, still able to get off a more spontaneous counterattack within these few moments since his last one was well prepared and ready.
Fiore Riposte: 17 + 15 Talent + 1 Weapon - 5 Free Attack Penalty = 27
The blade stabbed deep into the dual axe wielding bandit, who currently seemed to be the biggest threat thanks to how he managed to nearly eviscerate Fiore with his secondary hand axe swing, Fiore having to fight two opponents at the same time not really being much of help. Things were starting to look tough.
