From his position in the rear, Pipkin fires off another arrow, trying to stem the tide of orcs.

Borir straightens his helm and then proceeds to taunt the orc which hit him. "I'll show you how to hit. Take this, you orc scum!" The dwarf slashes with his axe at the creature.

Now with some confidence back, Wren turns his attention to the orc just bludgeoned by Borir. "Let's finish him off!" He takes aim and hopes to fell another, in turn taking some of the pressure off of Borir.

Aerth quickly has another arrow out and at the ready. He scans the field and makes a quick decision to shoot one of the orcs around Borir. He launches an arrow after a short moment to aim, hoping to take down one of the attackers immediately.

Varuthil moves rapidly across the battle field to gain a better angle, then looses an arrow at one of the badly wounded orcs, hoping to drop it.

Attack on Woodland Hall: Round 3
Standing perfectly still and imperturbable in the middle of the fight is a white stag. How it came inside the walls, or where from, none can say. A blink of an eye later, it is gone but you are left with the impression that a longer lapse of time has passed. The fight beyond the walls seems to have shifted, and the Woodmen are pushing back the orcs at least a little finally.
The orcs continue to press, Borir stands alone on the road before the gate. He can not hold the wave of orcs at bay for long. As another joins the fight he finds that two foes are now engaged with him. His shield he holds high and blocks a heavy handed strike from the bent sword of the first orc. Then he knocks the blade of a second to the side as it charges him.
He finds he's not the only one under a furious assault, for one of the orcs draws his blade and charges Aerth. Borir can't hold it at bay, he's only one fighting toe to toe and the orc slips past him toward the Half Elf. It charges Aerth and swings its bent sword but Aerth is nimble, and rolls clear of the swing, but now finds himself locked in close combat, his bow useless here.
The other orc throw spears again, drawing them from their backs once more. Varuthil and Wern are missed, the pair of elves move with the same mind ducking the poor throws. It is poor Pipkin the gentle Hobbit that has a massive black orc bear down on him and launch its board headed spear at him. The shaft flies right at Pipkin's chest. He puts forth all his effort and dodges at the last moment, but a lock of hair is sliced from his little head and he tumbles awkwardly into the dirt wearing himself out slightly in the process.
Borir and Aerth, toe to tow with foes, while Pip, Wren and Varuthil fire....
