Legend

While Azoth might be lending his power to you, you aren't invincible and this was probably a really bad idea.

The orcs are not only hostile, but they were extra ready for you. Two of their number attack you from the front and two more attack you from behind in an ambush. You don't have time to cast a spell or use your brimstone thrower if you have them.

Normally you'd probably be overwhelmed and killed, however you do have Azoth to give you a little extra help which he'll provide for this battle without hesitation.

You can do one of the followingÂ…

You may add 2 SKILL points for the duration of this combat. This gives you a little extra speed to avoid getting caged in by your foes, but you're still having to fight them all at the same time. This means you'll be fighting 4 battles per round of combat and only (hopefully) hitting one of them while they could potentially land 4 hits on you. It'll be a LONG fight!

You can unleash a flurry of attacks on the nearest orc which will kill him instantly only leaving you 3 to fight (A lot more manageable) however this will drain you somewhat and you'll lose 6 STAMINA points for this.

Finally you can use a form of fear and mind control on the orcs. This will cause them to only attack you one at a time, again making the fight much more manageable as you can pick them off one by one. The downside is Azoth gains a little more dominance in your head and may attempt to take you over completely while you're preoccupied and using his powers. At the beginning of each orc fight, you must test your MIND and add 3 to the result. If you fail, Azoth will take your body over completely and your soul will be totally consumed by him and your adventure will end here.

Each ORC WARRIOR has these stats
