Kestrel follows at a nonchalant distance, keeping his eyes open for incoming threats and on Karthon's movements.
The battle is total chaos. A small group of some three Kriatoma spots them and apparently decides they would be easier to fight than the whole Xain army.
Kestrel fires an arrow into one, draws another arrow, and attempts loading it, but sees they are about to reach him before he would be able to load out fully. He drops the bow and arrow and ejects his wrist blades, bracing himself in a fighting stance.
They begin working their way toward him, but still not in the numbers they were in before.
Gidie's spell: 88%
OOC: Sorry I missed this before.
*Darthraxx continues shouting for them to join, whilst blasting lightning and green energy in the Xain, at this point angling it more towards the sorcerers.*
The Xains crash into them, beating down on the shields and the unguarded.
The archers retreat but the swordsmen begin attacking the line of Xains from the rear while Harfor and his two men (Those that were guarding drake) continue fighting.
This group of Xains find themselves trapped, but the larger force is now facing the minotaurs without having to also guard against the Forest Band and the minotaurs are struggling to hold them off.

The one he shot, only slowed slightly, keeps coming, as do the other two. They are wielding heavy bludgeoning weapons that they swing with ease.
Dubhan, watching this, sighs and looks to Casur. "Do you think you could go break this up before they smash each other?"

Kestrel leaps high in the air toward the first to get to him, kicking him in the chest which knocks him back. Kestrel uses his momentum to back flip and land on his feet. He then jumps at the fallen attacker and jabs his rib cage with his wrist blades multiple times. He quickly pushes himself off of him after doing so, prepared for the next attacker.

The Kriatoma is unprepared for the kick, and is slowed down slightly, though no more than the the one shot. None of them have fallen and the target of the would-be second attack knocks Kestrel out with a quick smack from his war hammer before Kestrel gets close enough to use his blades.

OOC: If you mean "knocked unconscious" then null this move.
IC: Kestrel lands with a roll and fires his left blade at the one-who-just-hit-him's face with elvin accuracy. He stands and reloads his wrist blade with another dagger, preparing for the next strike.

OOC: I do mean knocked unconscious. You should probably read up on the Kriatoma, by the way. The have comparable strength and toughness to trolls and comparable speed and intelligence to humans. They are also your allies.

The archers cover for the swordsmen. With a more chaotic scene, the less defensive archers have an easier time fighting. The Swordsmen continue to press in on the surrounded Xain, trying to finish them off quickly.

OOC: ALLIES!? Then why are they doing this? And also, it'd be harder to knock Kestrel out since he recovers faster than humans.

OOC: Because you're dressed as Xains. They're as strong as trolls. He had to be very careful to knock you out and not accidentally do something more unpleasant.

The slow build-up continues.
OOC: Which sorcerers? Old Magic or Elemental?
OOC: The one's Darthraxx knows where they are.
Tul Generas of the Orcs, Darthraxx of the dragon Knights. I RP, and have lots of fun.

The surrounded Xains begin to fall.
They finish them off quickly, those Xain not smashed retreat back to the bulk of their troops. Harfor analyzes what to do next.
