( Harvey ducks when the witch lets go and drops behind him, picking up a nearby trash can and chucking it at the remaining witch (4). It's more about distracting him to grab Carroll and get the two of them out of there then actually hitting him, but it throws way too wide and a third witch has joined the party at the alley entrance.
Harvey grabs a different 2 x 4 from the pile, he may not be able to do much, but he can give them advantages.
He taps his piece of wood to Carroll's. )
Commodum.
( Giving them advantage for the next minute of combat. )
Witch 1 wrestles himself off the ground and goes to try and throw a spell at Carroll (9 vs. 19), but Carroll dodges it thanks to that shiny advantage Harvey gave him. He swings back in return (10 vs. 4) and slams him back into the dumpsters again.
Witch 2 takes a swing at Harvey, trying to re-grapple him (15), looking to try and regain some control of the situation.
Witch 3 is mostly just swarming, lobbing another spell at Carroll since he's not the one they care about (11 vs. 19), and Carroll manages to dodge it again, but is starting to feel the pinch.]
(Harvey dodges the swing (17), and tries landing a blow to Witch 2's side (18), before attempting a spell in Witch 3's direction. He's still new and still technically learning - so, what he sends - if it works is a spell to stupify him. What he does, if it's effective, is to render him speaking nonsense for the next minute, unable to really communicate. (13) )Stultus!
[Harvey's blow lands (14), and the witch looks winded, stumbling to the side. Witch 3, on the other hand, deflects the spell (17).
Witch 1 starts to try and craft a spell again (6 vs. nat 20), but Carroll pushes the advantage and slams him back into the dumpster again, and Witch 1 drops to the ground, out cold. Carroll then turns on Witch 3 (19 vs. 10), swinging and catching the witch on the shoulder, trying to render one arm useless.
Witch 2 tries to throw a binding spell at Harvey (5), but he's still winded so he can't quite get the words out right unless Harvey rolls real bad.
Witch 3 turns his focus on Carroll, feeling less precious about this no one who's interrupting their plan (1 vs. 18), but Carroll, again, slams the two by four into his shoulder and there's the snap! of breaking bone as he manages to hit it just right, and one arm hangs useless.]
( Quick on the trigger, a boxer, despite all that, he is still a novice witch and gets bound, fingers on both hands crackling with energy. )
My magic's down.
( But he still has a 2 x 4 and tries to land a blow on Witch 2 in retaliation, but he's still reacting to the binding that tingles through his system (8) )
[It's enough though, as Witch 2 doesn't have a lot of time to dodge (3).
Carroll nods that that is a problem, but given that one witch is already out and the other has a broken arm, they're not in terrible shape.]
Got it. Plan Blunt Force Trauma still a go.
[He then turns and slams the 2x4 into Witch 3 again (12 vs 11), forcing the witch to stumble back.
Witch 2 takes Harvey's blow and prepares to try and regain control of this situation with a little sleep spell (6), but is a little shaky on the execution: Ad somnum."
Witch 3 takes another swing at Carroll because he can't cast with a bum arm (5 vs. 6) and Carroll just barely manages to deflect the blow with his bat.]
( Harvey withstands the botched sleep spell, but feels like he took a hit of Benadryl. He's still up, though and swings his 2 x 4. Again, Benadryl. (6) )
[Witch 2 dodges (15), though looks frustrated at the fact he doesn't go down completely. "Go. To. Sleep." He states through gritted teeth, putting more umph behind the spell (19).
Witch 3 tries to take another punch at Carroll (19 vs. 13) and that seems to startle him some, knocking him a bit off base. Carroll recovers and takes another swing (nat 20 vs. 15), and it's enough to drop Witch 3 to the ground finally.]
( (19 v 19) as a battle of wills leads both to a stalemate, Harvey tries another swing, but he's still more lethargic than he should be in a fight, (3) )
[Witch 2 does dodge the blow (10), but now it's two on one and Carroll comes barreling at him, catching the back of his head and dropping him to the ground (9 vs. 1).
Carroll then reaches over to steady Harvey as he drops his 2 x 4.]
