marvi’s D&D Adventures: Excerpt #1 “The shot of her LIFE!”

I love my online D&D group so much. This excerpt is courtesy of my DM, Chekken, and myself, combining our EPIC WRITING POWERS to create this little gem. Malgrava will tell tales of this arrow shot to her grandkids and anyone else within hearing at the Home for Super Hot Retired Heroes and Heroines. ~marvi

Readying another arrow, Malgrava feels a cool shiver pulse through her body as she feels the world s l o w i n g around her. Her heartbeat still thumping loud but slower and slower in her ears as her vision sharpens to take in all that's around her. Darts sprung cleverly by Dale fly at the invading kobold horde, skewering them (as well as a few companions).


There is something about this moment, right now, that made her feel comfortable and relaxed. With this meditative feeling, she felt as if she could do anything...hit anything...and striking the kobold 20ft away was not only possible, but positively easy. She let her arrow fly with the power of a war-forged vixen. It spun past Falco circling around a kobold, trying to get behind it; past Jakk, who was toe-to-toe with the enemy; past Sireekuute, who was recovering from the poison and past the front ranks of the kobold army. In mid-air, her arrow split into 5 more arrows, which struck every vital point on the kobold. Mal wasn't quite sure how she did it, or how it happened, nor why. Turning her attention back to any attackers left, the sounds and action of the fight rush back at her in normal speed.
