"Drop them quickly!" Greyven shouted. The last wave of hobgoblins and bugbears had sorely pressed the outpost's defenders and now another mass of the fetid creatures charged at them. Kolvaeth's mind turned inward, empowering his spell to do more damage than normal, but taxing his magical reserves in return. Gouts of flame spewed from his fingertips, limning the closest hobgoblins in a wreath of fire. Belmont roared and met the advance. He spun his greataxe in a wide arc, the powerful attack cleaving through one kobold and striking a bugbear square on the leg. Greyven caught a blur of motion to his right, then the air was suddenly forced from his lungs by a shattering impact that drove him to the ground. The worg atop him continued the assault, slavering jaws finding soft flesh, until pain gave way to darkness.
Kolvaeth is using the Empower Spell feat to make his Burning Hands spell more powerful while Belmont is using his Power Attack feat to add extra damage to the already powerful Cleave feat. Meanwhile, poor Greyven has had a worg use its knockdown ability against him.
