Liri drives her gladius into the face of the nearest zombie. It immediately goes limp and falls to the ground, unmoving.
The zombie behind it continues shambling towards her, its movements even more awkwardly as it treads on the fallen corpse.
[OOC] I assume Angel is still trying for head shots. If not, let me know and I'll adjust.[/OOC]
Angel swings at the zombies, but Praesul's violent movements throw off her aim, causing her to miss. Praesul manages to land both front hooves on the chest of one of the walking corpses. The blow crushes its ribcage and breaks its spine, the thing falls to the ground, still clawing and biting at whoever is near.
The nearest zombie has managed to grab hold of Angel's leg and bites just above her boot, drawing blood. [
3 hp damage] Another grabs Praesul and bites the horse's rump, drawing blood and causing the horse to buck. [OOC] Jen - Roll a DEX check, please. [/OOC]
Galanis moves to defend Egg's back, striking with both of his blades at one of the zombies behind the other merc. His scimitar hits the zombie's head, sending a chunk of skin and bone flying. He thrusts with his long knife at its face, but the zombie stumbles forward in that moment and the blade goes into its chest under the collarbone and lodges there, causing him to lose his grip on the weapon.
In the press of bodies, one of the zombies clutches Galanis' wounded arm with its claw-like fingers and bites his shoulder [
2 hp damage] Another grabs his sword arm but loses its grip a second later.
Egg drops his spear, useless in such close quarters, and draws a short, broad-bladed sword and swings at the zombie facing him. The blade shears off much of the zombie's face, but does not stop it. Blinded, the zombie still attempts to bite Egg, but misses. Egg is shouting now: "Time to
go G! Can't stay here!"
The zombies are close enough now to the two fighters that it is difficult to move without being bumped or grabbed.
