The bolts were stopped by the cloak, or at least slowed down and knocked off target. Sephi took this as an advantage and finished drawing his sword. He practically flew over to the crossbowman on his left, running him onto his sword. Sephi pulled his bloodied sword out of the man's abdomen and turned in time to see Jaclyn finish a lightning bolt spell that collided with the other man, knocking him against the wall and sending his body into convulsions.
The mage finished casting Melf's Acid Arrow and shot it off at Sephi. It struck him in the shoulder, forcing him to wince in pain as he put his cloak back on. Whipping out his hand crossbow, he took aim for the mage on the far side. He missed, but the distractio caused the mage's casting to be interrupted. Jaclyn finished this off though, and sent a roaring fireball at the mage, taking out him and the fallen crossbowman.
Now Sephi and the three melee men stood toe-to-toe, ready for the fight to begin.
