Dungeons and Dragons

The monastery is under attack! No brawl with visiting monks of another order. A real battle, death or victory, is taking place right now. Like other monks and nuns you hurry towards the courtyard, eager to test your fighting skills and gain some estimation about what exactly is going on.

Disbelief touches your self, when you spot the undeniable battle-banner of a Luskan mercenary company known as the Black Swords of Armature. Luskan Invaders! The notorious neighboring realm is the symbol of infamy along the Sword Coast.

The courtyard is a battlefield right now. Skirmishes take place everywhere and first corpses of both, attackers and defenders, are lying on the ground. Hacked-off body parts add to the crimson-colored stones under the moonlight.

You leap into a forward roll, not allowing the obstacle in form of two novice-corpses, killed by crossbow bolts, to hold you back. Watching the skirmishes around you, you decide to reinforce your brethren where they are hard-pressed by the enemy.

You sense other novices behind you, falling in with your tactics, as they anticipate your intent. Throwing knives start flying from behind you and above, as more monks and nuns got ready for battle in the meanwhile.

A Luskan Sellsword shield-bashes brother Interim out of his way, starting to charge you! You see that the Brother, one of Abbot Humberto's aides, is merely dazed. With the mercenary charging you, it is time to consider your defense and riposte.
