Okey dokey, nevermind then!

I don’t think so… The rats were done gnawing for the round when Daurant rushed in. They can provoke AoOs, but not make them.

The evil shaman's enrage screeching is cut short when Urd plants a bolt right between her eyes. She's dead before she even hits the ground! Christo's arrow misses the lone standing orc.

I guess so. :) On Gerbimble's turn, that is. They act on his turn, and Gerbimble had a higher init than Daruant.

WILLARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm assuming you're dropping the swarm as Daurant charges into battle?

That's good because the save was 14. 😆

Forgot dwarf bonus vs. spells, so that’s a 15!

Right! Added a Will Save to my last post. Rolled a 13.

She took a 5ft step away.

, if the orc is casting beside me, do I get an AoO against it?

The robed one, the one directly in his path of charging…

Which orc are you attacking?

In the instant after Sugrin blasts the orcs with his color spray spell, Christo steps forward and casts another spell. The orc seems stunned for a moment! The trio is suddenly engulfed by a swarm of rats that nibble their flesh. Daurant deals the robed orc a grievous wound. "How DARE you strike me!" The orc shifts away and begins to cast a spell on Daurant. His blood runs cold and the hairs on his neck stand up at her fury! The standing orc swings his weapon at Daurant, though he's shaking like a leaf in terror and he misses!
