She can't reach the wererat without opening herself to bites from the rats. Hmm. How about...

Ear-Piercing Scream. She's never tried this in combat before, but she knows the basics from the wizard version.

The spell squeezes the wererat's head and their ears bleed. They seem to lose focus and stop moving.

Garril swings his warhammer at a dire rat near his feet. He misses.

Shadi sends a magical icicle flying into the dazed wererat. It cuts deep into their chest.

A second wererat leaps from the darkness behind the party and misses Tencednil with a crossbow bolt.

The three remaining dire rats throw another wave of bites at Garril and Navarro. None of them hit.

Navarro spikes his rapier into another dire rat. It goes still.

The wererat ahead of them may have rats in the way, but that is not true of the wererat behind them! She walks towards it, and... Color Spray. It may be boring but it works.

The wererat behind them is now stunned and blinded and unconscious!

Ah, Color Spray. It's been too long since she landed a good Color Spray.

The wererat ahead of them shakes off the daze and lunges for Navarro. He dodges out of the way.

Garril swings his warhammer at the wererat. It slams into their chest and smokes. The wererat is far less injured than one would expect from a hit like that. Not silver.

Shadi spikes another icicle into the wererat's chest. It staggers but doesn't go down.

The wererat behind them is unconscious on the floor.

The two remaining dire rats throw another wave of bites at Garril and Navarro. They don't penetrate armor this time either.

Navarro slams his rapier into the wererat's chest. It smokes, not silver, but the wererat goes down all the same.

"This one is out for at least a few seconds, if someone can finish it!"

Aiming into melee is hard, but it's not like she will make any progress not doing it. Acid Splash one of the rats. She hits, and it sizzles a bit, but it doesn't go down.

Garril squishes a dire rat to a bloody pulp beneath his warhammer and runs over to the unconscious wererat behind them.

Shadi cuts into the last dire rat with her sickle. It's not very effective, even against a rat.

That dire rat is very upset now! It tries to bite Shadi but her defending bone blocks it.

Navarro tries his downward skewer maneuver against the last remaining dire rat. It doesn't work this time.

Does an Acid Splash finish the last rat?

It does! How convenient. She will leave the final wererat for the person in large armor and with a large hammer to finish off. If it was going to wake up before he had the chance to drop it, that would be clear by now.

Garril crushes the wererat's skull with a great swing of his warhammer. It's dead.

Navarro breathes heavily. "They're not usually so aggressive! Or prone to attack guardsmen. They fought to the death, too."

"Urgathoan cults don't usually care for weres, do they? I wonder if there's something else happening."
