Bearclaw Valley bear with me

i put my dice roll in your thread, link to astara's successful hit here: clicky! <3

santiago managed to avoid astara's teeth once, but he would not be so lucky twice. taylor and merrick both flanked the demon, their teeth bared in vindicating unison.

astara did not falter -- the paw that swung towards her face was suitable enough of a compromise, and the she-devil lunged for that limb instead. interrupting the full swing of santiago's blow by leaning into the attack, astara was able to cut the male's momentum in half. his forearm swipe hit her full on in the chest and she grunted, but the blackbird was staunchly prepared for physical force.

astara was no shirking violet: large as this brute may be, she was every bit his rival. her teeth sunk into his forearm with merciless force. the nightshade then dropped her weight entirely downwards in a crocodilian roll, designed to bring the brute on a crash course with the earth.
