Iolas

Surprised by the sudden turn of events and the quickness of Reginald, Iolas hesitated for a couple of seconds before drawing his sword and running after him. It seems as though the maid was not what she claimed to be. Most interesting.

You all head up the stairs..Sir Reginald and Hob head off into another part of the house..you can hear Sir Reginald and Hob discussing items..
"the 500?"
"Yes, can you carry the maxim as well?"
"Perhaps the mauser? It has always been reliable?
...
From a window at the front of the house you can see down the long driveway to the gates, now open. Standing by them you can see the shape of Ellie and some ominous yet familiar figures. With an unearthly howl the creatures run, fly, slither and scuttle towards the house.

A bell is clanging inside the mansion and Hob can be heard shouting the alarm. Merriwether is muttering a frantic prayer.

Actions?

Iggy

"If you have defenses now would be the time, Sir Reginald! Several Other-worlders and your former maid have come calling." Iggy says loudly. "A distress signal would not go amiss either."

"If you've no defenses or signal show us to your secret escape route."

"If you don't have that I'd say take us to your chapel to let those so inclined to make peace with their god." the grizzled engineer says sardonically.

You can also see lurking behind the creatures coming through the gate the street thugs you encountered at the dock. As the creatures charge through the gutter princes
slouch through the gate behind them. Directing them from the back is your old friend from the gate, the mage.

Iolas

Iolas sizes up the approaching enemies. The one near the back seemed to be the leader.

"If we take out the ones at the back, the others may be easier to handle. Do we have any artillery or cannons?"

Speaking in an unladylike manner, Elizabeth quickly pulled a few lever on her PURSE. As she did so, sent a radio message to her suit.

[Autopilot: Call suit to Elizabeth]

"I believe that we are the artillery here. Certainly, I am a good distraction. Good luck finding a way to bring heavy weapons here. " Elizabeth began running toward her suit of armor that had begun to clank down the hallway.

Iggy

"So... no defenses?" Iggy says, disappointed. "Then, is there a passage in which we can get behind them and to the elf mage?"

Merriwether ponders.."I am pretty sure there are defences someone mentioned a maxim
. The question is what the maid knew about and had time to disarm. I think the swordsman also had a plan about getting to the back of the group. If you have any tricks in your arsenal now might be the time. By the way most images need to speak and gesture to do magic. Just saying."
At that he mutters and gestures and disappears from sight. Your other senses detect him moving away and heading to the side of the building. A disembodied voice says "This way. We'll try to outflank them."

@Elizabeth. Once in your armour where are you going to go?

Iggy will follow the voice in order to outflank their assailants.

OOC- Elizabeth, where are you headed once you have your armour on?

[OOC: The best place to be if you are trying to be the best distraction you can be. The front.]

Elizabeth got her armor on and set her PURSE to magic armor mode. [Action Configure: Impervious toughness 5, partial immunity magic damage (half effect)] She got on her Portable Marconi. "Iggy, Lolas... Try to flank everyone from the side. I am going to distract them from the front."

With that she looked out the front and lept from the second story window, landing in front in a parkour roll. "To all intruders. You have been warned. Depart, or we shall see just how thick you really are."

The creatures keep on coming....
The ragtag bunch of ruffians are advancing down the drive a lot more slowly. (It is a Loooong drive). Beside you Hob festooned with weapons has a large multibatreled gun with a handle on the back. A window is opened above you and you can see a barrel sticking out. Other staff members armed with an assortment of weapons have come to stand by Hob.
From the window above you hear Sir Reginald saying..."when I fire give em hell."

Iggy, Iolas and Merriwether easily make it to the corner of the house ready to cunningly outflank.

Make a stealth check please..
