Ivar the Slayer #12

Brogah, for his part, didn’t run away. But he was rattled enough as well that I saw him take a knee to steady himself, while drawing his bow.

Spirit 5 + Action 2 = 7
Challenge 5 & 10 = Weak Hit

The arrow struck true, and thank the gods for that, but poor Brogah was still shaking, and clearly struggling to move his limbs to draw the next one.

Iron 3 + Action 3 = 6
Challenge 9 & 10 = Miss

Endure Harm
Health 5 + Action 5 = 10
Challenge 6 & 6 = Strong Hit
Embrace the Pain: Take +1 Momentum

Meanwhile, in my attempt to strike the damned monster, I clashed with the spider’s claw and was knocked on my ass.

I was getting pretty annoyed now and gritted my teeth, eager to make a mark in this battle.

Brogah fired off another arrow.

Edge 3 + Action 2 = 5
Challenge 2 & 8 = Weak Hit
Spider takes +2 Harm & Pay the Price: Endure Stress

Endure Stress
Heart 5 + Action 2 = 7
Challenge 7 & 8 = Miss
-2 Stress & -1 Momentum

This time, it whizzed past my head by a mere inch before hitting its mark. Brogah seemed more shaken than ever now, grasping at multiple arrows and looking anywhere but at me as I threw him a mean glare.
