Thomas decides to change his target and moves over to William, launching a punch at him before he can fire his shotgun.

OOC,Good roll, Ryan. You may not have hit the homicidal lunatic with the shotgun that you’ve just charged, but at least you might be able to avoid getting killed for now... Mr Handy - yes, you should be able to duck while you attempt to drive. Will update when Bullfrog posts.

William is too distracted by the car's failure to start to effectively defend himself.

Lawrence ducks behind the car, hoping not to get hit by a spine or shotgun blast.

Thomas broke off from his fight with Robert and charged towards William instead. He swung a haymaker but his punch was wide. William grinned evilly as he brought up the now loaded shotgun and fired, but Thomas was close enough to side-step the shot... With William distracted, Lawrence took his chance and ran and dived behind the car to take cover.

Howard pummelled the naked woman, slamming his fist into her face. There was an audible crack as cheekbone broke and her eyes rolled back into her skull. Half of her face appeared to be pushed in and she shuddered and lay still. In death, her muscles relaxed and she looked human again, and Howard felt sick at the thought that he was responsible for her demise.

In the car, William thumbed the starter button and worked the gas pedal to try to start the engine but it wouldn’t turn over. Beside him, Jacob cowered in the passenger seat, as the naked man reached into the car to try to drag William out. His strong hands gripped the young lawyer and William felt himself being pulled from the car...

The creature hauled its oily bulk across the clearing, in the direction of the car. Another spine whipped across the clearing and buried itself in the windscreen.

OOC,Who is the closest assailant to Howard now, Phil? Does evil William have his back to him?

OOC,Howard’s two closest options are evil William (currently being attacked by Thomas) or the naked man (who’s pulling William from the car).

Howard shakes off the sight of the dead woman. He looks for a new assailant and spots the naked man trying to drag William from the car. He runs up behind him and swings his fist at the back of the man’s neck as hard as he can.

The shotgun blast encourages Thomas to back away, and he instead doubles down on attacking Robert.

OOC - Lawrence,Yes, you can also attack. The idea roll is just to see if something occurs to Lawrence (but having failed the roll, it didn’t).

"Jacob, get behind it and push!" shouts William. Struggling to hold on, he tries to start the car again in the hopes that Jacob or one of the others will help by pushing the car and that his assailant will be forced to release him once it starts moving.

Having survived one close shave with the shotgun-wielding William, Thomas suddenly broke away again, and swung out at Robert, who had just about climbed back to his feet. His wild punch missed again however, and Thomas found himself in no man’s land between the two brothers. Seeing that, William raised the shotgun and fired at the policeman but he missed, just narrowly avoiding hitting his brother.

William felt himself being pulled out of the car but just as his hands were about to slip from the steering wheel, Lawrence and Howard appeared behind the naked man. Howard punched him heavily in the neck, causing his grip on William to loosen.

As he fell back into the driving seat, William realised that a jump start would be their best chance at getting the car started and yelled "Jacob, get behind it and push!" The young man looked fearful but got out and quickly did as he was told. When he felt the car start to move forward, William pressed the starter button again...

The creature continued to make its way across the clearing, in pursuit of those around the car, and another spine hummed across the clearing and buried itself in Howard’s shoulder.
