Yoshi rode behind Isumi and Raiden. While he was going to the village with them, he was not a fighter, so he felt better in the back ranks where he could cast spells to aid those infront.

Raiden readied his horse and charged the closest zombie it's porcelain face looking at him. It's intestines dangling from a slice across it's belly. Raiden sliced it across the neck. ( tn 5 +15 (called shot)=20 18+16+13+8=55 Oh yeah.) It's head went flying the body collapsing to the ground.

Taken led the others through the woods around the village as quickly as his horse could carry him. He hoped that the others could keep up, and that Izumi would survive the village. However, it was her choice to stay with the undead, and Taken didn't care to argue any points, particularily given his motives for splitting the group as he did.

Doji Mei rode closer to Taken. "You look concerned lord Taken. I'm sure Lord Raiden and the others will come out of the village alright."

Kuni Shiroku began the prayer to the earth kami. When finished the spell would rain holy jade upon the undead.


ooc: IHMN you're up

Yoshi signaled his horse to stop near a xombie that was away from any sort of house or tree which could easily burn. Reaching into his robes, he pulled out the Fire from Within scroll and quickly glanced through it to refresh himself on the spell.

Beginning his spell, Yoshi put his hands above his head. Fire quickly gathered around his hands. The horse that Yoshi was riding began to show signs of nervousness, having fire near it. Quickening the spell, Yoshi made the gathering fire form into a ball. Before the horse moved any more, he swung his hands at the nearby zombie's head. The fireball smashed against it's mask, destroying it and the head. The body of the zombie burst into flames.

Yoshi gripped the horse's reigns and moved it away from the fire to settle it down.

ooc: 2 down 26 more to go.

next combat round:
IHMN
Me (raiden)
BatGirl
Me (Shiroku)

Yoshi rode his horse away from the battle, but close enough to see everything that was going on. Pulling out his fireball scroll again, Yoshi began to cast Fires from Within again, but this time slower. The hurried process from his last spell wore him out a bit.

OOC: Can raises be reused? I assumed no for most, but having the scroll seemed like a reusable raise.

edit: Yes they can, but I guess you want to up the damage.

OOC: Another head shot is unlikely, so I'll go with no raises. Stupid strong zombies...

Raiden dismounted. Slowly the undead vilagers moved toward the dragon samurai. He drew his wakizashi. His horse stayed close, but distant from all the undead.
