"Arghh". Robute feels the full force two bolts smash into him and falls over into the ground, knocked out.

[Mangles]

Robute went down too the kobolds previouse bolts but Egans arrow strikes one of the kobolds down. The one remaining starts to reload his crossbow.

At the base of the tower Red sees a kobold 15 feet infront of him as he rounds the corner. The kobold runs towards the staircase drawing a dagger as he retreats.

Glad to see Robute respond to the potion, Vanya reloads the crossbow and backs up to some cover.

Red waits to see if the others will keep coming or will retreat. He holds his guisarme in a firm grip, looking back and forth.

"So... what's up with you guys? Are you coming or what?"

Delay action. He will act if a kobold shows up or when someone from the group answers him.

Vanya looks down in surprise at the bolt protruding out of her chest, and the blood soon stains the area around the wound. With a sharp inhale and nothing more, she slumps to the ground helplessly.

[amanamana]

"Aw, crap" - Red mutters when he sees Vanya falling - "I think we are done here..."

"Fall back!" - He shouts to the others and runs towards the unconscious elf. As he approaches her, he shouts again - "I'll grab her, the rest of you, run!"

Spoiler

The delayed action and all others will be converted in running towards Vanya, grabing her and running back to the woods. As soon as he's out of reach or behind a tree, he'll check her status.
Carrying her will put him in medium load, with a move of 30'.
EDIT: Actually, not. I think he will be on heavy load... I'll check.
EDIT: Yup, heavy load. So, he will have move 40' until picking her up and move 20' afterwards.

[esorscher]

Eagan will fire one more arrow before falling back, at the kobold atop the tower.

"Damn, she wasted that potion on me... Hang in there Vanya. Everyone, fall-back..."

Robute shoots at the kobold on the roof in a last ditch attempt to take him out. He then takes off, trying to keep up with the rest of the group. However, Robute is concerned for Vanya's safety, and if Red stops to check on her, he will run over and help.

"To the forest," Eagan calls again, falling back to a position next to Vanya's corpse. He keeps his bow pointed at the tower, concerned at the prospect of a kobold counter-attack.

If the kobolds aren't going to attack, let's all fall back to the forest.

Red runs to the forest carrying Vanya's corpse. He seems very upset to find her dead.

[elven] "You'll be avenged, sister."[/elven]

[Mangles]

you make it to the forest without further incident.

[amanamana]

Red gently lays Vanya's corpse on the ground and looks at the others. He has a grim look in his eyes.

"Well... she's dead." - He says, in a grave manner - "Shall we go back to the fort? We'll need some tower shields and an actual plan."

[esorscher]

"Aye, before nightfall. Bring Vanya, we owe her a proper burial. We can take turns carrying her if you like, Red." Eagan says, heading off in the direction of the fort.

[amanamana]

"Ain't there a horse around?" - He looks around, searching for Jak's mount - "Maybe we could place her body on it... if not, I could carry her without a problem."

As soon as this is worked out, he heads for the fort, paying attention to any signs from the woods.

He sets off, and says to himself "We'll avenge you Vanya... We'll be back..."
