The White Hare

A Hiccup

Jack stares up at a giant black barked treant as it raises a large club-like arm and brings it down on the pile of orcs and gnolls he was stuck inside. Thankfully he managed to slip between the legs of enough of them to avoid the oncoming attack that turns the ground rotten. The bark of its arm giving way to dog sized termites and massive human sized grubs with circular mouths full of teeth.

As a tangle of roots and black vines come to grasp his body and hold him against the ground a massive humanoid earth elemental crashes into the tree and shatters it's trunk in a single mountainous strike. Sending smaller creatures that were infesting the treant everywhere.

"Alright time to change things up a bit. I want Nyxia over here incinerating the insects and rotlings. The rest of you are to kill as many orcs and gnolls as you can. If you aren't confident in your abilities than return to the dungeons these guys came from and pick through the dungeon shop when we are done with these fools. I'll handle the ice wolves and the bosses with Jack and my friend here." The elf battlemaster commands as he stands on the shoulder of his greater elemental summon. "Move!" Proceeding to launch himself at a gnoll female almost twice the size of the other hyena humanoids. Her wicked bloody flail proving to be useless against the powerful elder strong enough to break her out of the geas. One of his sabers are quickly sheathed and replaced with a curved dagger possessing a lime green light glowing from the damascus blade. "I haven't had this much fun in centuries!"

Nyxia throws her hands up after getting put on bug and wood burning duty. Sprinting over to a tree nearby she perches up on the unmoving mundane tree with her claws buried in the trunk. Looking down at the tightly packed dungeon beasts she breathes a torrent of fire. Four of the elves leave a group member behind as they return to the dungeon while the other two groups and the stray elf stay to assist.

Findrel enters the fray in a dance of blades. Magic circles appear at her feet before sending a gale of leaves hurling at the horde of monsters. Carving bloody lines in their bodies. Most strike center mass and go clean through and into another orc or gnoll. The other elves similarly carving through their own opponents with less proficiency than the instructor in training but still enough to assist in making a dent in their numbers.

"Strike swiftly and kill them in the first strike if you can manage! They are enthralled by the geas and are chasing the Leoporcitae." Findrel briefly looks to the side and finds her old teacher ripping a bloody path towards the orc chief. With a smile on his face that made her snicker. 'Only basic body enhancement and his blades. A showoff like always, lehrer.' Her face flushes with effort from fighting the group in front of her.

Meanwhile Jack was fighting for his life with 50 less strength and agility. Bouncing between enemies and fending off attacks that should realistically tear him apart. The buck does his best to aim for weak points. At times using the bodies of his enemies to protect himself from attacks. The only reason he was alive was thanks to his qi enhancements. When an orc tries to smash his skull in with a club, jumping out of the way his jaw elongates and he ends up swallowing it whole. His [Gluttony] activates just in time.

"Sweet mother of munchies I forgot I could do that." He croaks. Coughing a bit as the orc kicks. With a flex of his stomach the movement stops and the devoured orc lets out a loud crunch.
