Nestor closes with the beast and attempts to slice off one of its legs below the knee. Unfortunately his blade is turned at the last minute and he fails to cause any damage.

Zulayman notes Jacques' donning of armor and impatience.

"Alive or dead?" he says to no one in particular. "This thing does not live?"

Seeing no target to shoot and few allies exiting the barn, Zulayman puts away his bow and arrow. He draws his dagger, places it in his teeth and follows Jacques up to the window above.

Iseul quickly exits through the window and slides down the rope before the beast reaches his position.

OOC: Sorry, to be absent, folks...work got crazy the last couple of days.

Karl also shoots and hits the monster in the throat. It grunts, but does not seem much affected by the arrow.

[The undead take only 1 point of damage per normal arrow. Preparing fire arrows is possible, but requires oil or strong alcohol, cloth and one round per arrow.]

Iseul reaches the window.

[Does he slide down the rope? If so, he can do it before the monster reaches the window.]

The monster is ten feet tall and the walkway is 20' up and the window a couple of feet further, so it would seem that it cannot reach it from the ground floor.

There windows at regular intervals (all closed) along the walkway. The walkway goes around the whole building.

[New round. The monster has the initiative.]

The monster raises its hands towards the walkway, but realizing it cannot reach, it grips one of the large shovels from the racks along the wall.

[Romeo and Nestor are now close enough to attack.]

Karl shakes his head and slings his bow over his shoulder. He draws his sword and moves to support Romeo and Nestor.

"Surround it!" Karl shouts as he runs toward the beast, "Try to take its legs from under it. If we can make it fall it will be easier to deal with."

OOC: This is bound to *really* hurt!

Romeo runs full tilt, sword held down and out by his waist. Momentum propelling him, he impales the beast, pivots, and savagely rips his blade outwards in a spray of dessicated flesh and shattered bone!
