Jandar says,"Well, that wasn't very fair. Just what I'd expect from undead."
He nimbly dodges the column of fire thrown by the Drow(saved, and ring of evasion), then moves five feet forward and casts 'Searing Light' again, this time at the drow. (beat SR32, touch attack hits AC 39 for either 38 or 45, depending on light sensitivity of the creature)
(Kent, please don't forget they have to beat Jandar's SR30. Also, are these light sensitive creatures? It'll save me from rolling both the d6 and d8, unless you want me to.)

easily shrugging off the effects of the poision(fort save of 34) Tericus casts Holy Smite on the drow that Jandar hit with his searing light spell(20' radius, should catch both drow in it, 38 pts of damage and blinded for one round, will save of 19 for half and to negate the blindness, any non evil creature caught in the blast only suffers half damage and isnt blinded)

Screaming in frustration at his beloved sword being damaged (wearing no armor), he dives out of the pudding as fast as possible. [jump check of d20+22=39]
He takes half damage from the pudding saving with d20+15=34. He personally takes the 30 points damage mentioned (21+9).

Boots of Speed Round 9 activated Deciding that the old phrase "fool me once" comes in play, he does not follow Gareth this time, but goes instead for the known entity, the drow.
"Anyone know how to kill the Lord of Pudding's?"
He lines up in a flanking position and attacks the drow twice activating his boots of speed.
He hits with a 51 making a possible crit situation. His frustration wins out on the drow as he succeeds on the crit with a 52.

Both Onrad's sword and Max have 6 hit points left. The swords are still functional but Max is not at all happy. Gareth's armor is at 1/2 normal functionality.
Symon can tell that the Slaad and the other are having no difficulty with the darkness nor does the slaad seem to be affected by the holy aura blindness affect. The bluff goes off well but the two drow are paying attention to other things and the Sladd is focussed directly on Symon and almost grins as Symon crawls into the corner.
As Onrad and Gareth leave the pudding it tries to slam at them again and Gareth gets hit hard again AC 40 for 30 total points of regular and acid damage. Onrad's acrobatics however must have confused the poor pudding as its attack on him missed by a mile.
Onrad and Gareth continue on their ways across the rooms and both travel 60 feet to just get to their opponents and cannot attack yet. As gareth stops, he realizes that someone is beside him and sees that Fai'fasal has joined him though it looks like he is on the far edge of insanity.
Jandar and Tericus send off their respective spells in the direction from which the daggers came flying, hoping for the best as they take a shot in the darkness(unless you have a way of seeing through Symon's magical darkness). The spells go off without a hitch and seem to enter the dark sphere but then nothing else can be told.
Symon however does take 19 points of damage from Tericus' holy smite spell.
.....
The Slaad, following Symons move to the corner reaches out to touch him with his claws again hitting him once for 10 points of damage and a will save dc 22 or be stunned.
As Morlas sees Gareth and Fai'fasal approach he cast a quick spell and a barrier of whirring blades suddenly appears between them, effectively cutting himslef off from them.
The Matron seeing on of her former subjects running across the room with Liseth in his hands lets loose with a snarl that nearly curdles Symon's blood when he hears it. that snarl is floowed closely by a column of flame that engulfs the drow 56 points relfex dc 21 for 28 points
The other drow sends three more daggers flying at Tericus AC 38, 21 and 28 for 20 points and two fortitude saves dc 19 or lose 5 points of constitution.

Symon resists the stun attack. Then he tries an untrained Tumble to move west out of the Slaad's reach. He rolls a natural one on that check, so when he moves, he provokes an attack of opportunity. If the AoO is a hit, his Stun save is a natural one, and he is stunned.
If the AoO does not hit, then with his remaining action, Symon casts Teleport, to move behind the door to the room, where he will hide (check result is a 44, another nat one!) Of course, if he is stunned, he will not be teleporting or hiding anywhere!

As the warrior sees the blade barrier go up he knows the worst thing he can do is stop and allow the lich a chance to cast again. Bellowing loudly, he sheaths Max (Quick Draw Feat) and runs straight into the blade barrier. Using his amazing strength he grabs the lich - attempting to pin its arms, picks it up, and runs back toward the pudding. Once he gets near the pudding he throws Morlas into it so it can experience the joy of acid damage too... (Note: He'll move as far as he can towards the pudding and still get an attack, and launch the lich from there - no need to stay up close and personal too long...). (Hit AC 46 - Grapple, Hit AC 55 to hit the pudding with the lich, 30 strength on grapple - no way he's not strong enough to do this). Notes: The blade barrier will not follow him - and Morlas gets damage when Gareth carries him through it...

(OOC, i havnt been able to open any of the maps, so im posting blind)
"We need to see whats going on." Tericus says to himself as he throws off the effects of the poision again(save of 22 and 32), then he casts dispel magic on the darkness(dispel check of 35, rolled a natural 20)

Now that Onrad is within 5' of the drow, he wails on him with his full assortment of attacks.
His first attack hits AC45 and does 19 hpd.
[d20+33=45 2d8(3+2)+14=19]
His second attack hits AC46 which is a probable crit. The possible roll hits AC46. Normal damage is 26hpd. If a crit it's 55hpd.
[d20+28=46 d20+28=46]
[2d6(5+3)+18=26 2d6(2+3)+18=23 2d6(3+5)+18=26]
His third hit hits AC37. If that hits, it does 22hpd.
[d20+23=37] [2d6(3+1)+18=22]
His fourth attack hits AC29 most likelly missing. If it hits, it does 20hpd.
[d20+18=29][2d6(1+1)+18=20]
His fifth attack hits AC24. It probably misses doing 24 hpd.

Jandar, feeling quite sure he's hitting the drow, casts 'Flame Strike' on the same one he and Tericus have been going after already. He then moves as far as possible to get closer to the Symon and yells at the Slaad, hoping to distract it and make it mad,"Hey Toad boy! We aren't finished yet you slug! After I roast you, I'm having frog legs for dinner!"

(OOC Sent map jpeg to Sam, not sure if it worked though. please let me know)
Gareth Jumps through the blade barrier to grab hold of Morlas and get chopped up in "La Machine" (58 reflex DC23 for 29 points). Gareth does indeed manage to grab hold of and grapple Morlas (opposed grapple check, natural 1). Jumping back through the magical food processor both Gareth and Morlas feel the pain (54 points each reflex DC for 27 points, no dex bonus allowed for either on return trip due to carrying stuggling opponent and being carried.) and then Gareth heaves the sorcerer as far as he can toward the approaching pudding. (Two five foot jumps, a grapple and a heave are just about more than Gareth is going to manage this round. If he wants to remain in grapple and move closer next round fine if not I will assume you are going ahead with the throw.)
Fai'fasal screams, whether in agony from the flame strike or in frustration as Gareth takes on Morlas is hard to tell, but moments later the flames go out and he doesn't look too crispy.
Symon tries to get away and gets hit by Monsieur Frog legs AC 29 for 18 points and he falls to the floor momentarily stunned 1 round
Tericus casts his dispell and somehow his spell manages to work or perhaps it ended due to Symon's incapacity, but in any case the darkness subsides.
Jandar sends his flame strike down just as Onrad also attacks the drow and then he sees that Symon is lying still on the floor beneath the Slaad.
>>>>>
Morlas struggles to escape but is unable to this round.
The Matron feeling the heat from the flame strike that struck her ally turns and starts another spell and a form takes shape and appears behind Onrad Turning he can see that it is roughly 8 ft tall and looks like a cross between a large Vulture and a giant.
The drow send two more daggers at Tericus connecting with both AC 41 and 28 for 20 points and two more fortitude saves DC 19 or lose 4 points of con.
The Slaad looks down at Symon with a grin on his slimy lips and misjudges his claw swipes as he missed badly (nat 1, nat 2) the fumble causing him to not be able to try and crunch him for lunch.
Onrad lays into the Drow that Tericus and Jandar were attacking and moments later is partially engulfed with Jandar's flame strike as it comes down on him as well. However when the flames die down the drow is not looking so well.

Symon lays still and prone. He imagines that he is at home in bed, but somehow his mattress has turned to stone. "How could that be?" he wonders, and he tries in vain to figure out this mystery.
He also wonders why his stone bed has a big lump -- answer: Symon is lying on his bow, which he dropped as he fell.
[OOC:
Prone: The character is on the ground. An attacker who is prone has a --4 penalty on melee attack rolls and cannot use a ranged weapon (except for a crossbow). A defender who is prone gains a +4 bonus to Armor Class against ranged attacks, but takes a --4 penalty to AC against melee attacks. Standing up is a move-equivalent action that provokes an attack of opportunity.
Stunned: A stunned creature drops everything held, can't take actions, takes a --2 penalty to AC, and loses his Dexterity bonus to AC (if any). ]

Seeing Simon laying on the ground, he yells, "Simon down!"
Jandar's Flame Strike hits him. He saves vs. Reflex at DC30 which I'm assuming is enough to take half damage of 23hpd. He screams from the pain, his nerves tight after so much pain being experienced in one day.
He continues to wail into the drow hoping to put him down.
His first attack hits AC 40. It does 19 points damage.
His second attack hits AC39. It does 19 hit points damage. This possible crit hits 44. If this is not a crit, he does 45 additional hpd.
His third attack hits AC39. It does 20 hit points damage.
His fourth attack hits AC24. It does 19 hpd if it hits.
His boots of speed cut off for the day this round.

He then makes a charge for the Slaad.(Righteous Might is double the size, so he's got 6' long legs. I'm not at home right now, but I'll roll his 'to hit' on the Slaad he's charging when I get their late tonight.)

Seeing (saved for 1/2 & stonekin) the damage the blade barrier has on the lich, the warrior decides not to wait on the pudding. He leans the thing back over towards the blade barrier and throws him into it and out the other side (hits him twice). The warrior quickly moves around the barrier to face his opponent one more time.

Jandar, all twelve feet tall and sixteen hundred pounds of him, sees Symon prone and still at the Slaad's feet. He issues a roar and charges. He attempts to Bull Rush the Slaad, keeping him off Symon.
(Kent, you get AOO and need to make opposed Strength check. If you beat 26, Jandar is moved back 5 feet, if he wins, the Slaad is moved back 5 feet, hopefully out of reach of his weapon, too)

Jandar Bull's is met with a quick slash of claws as the Slaad is pushed backwards 5 feet. AC 40 for 18 points and will save DC 22 or be stuuned for a round.
Simon begins to feel able to move a bit and thinks he can stand, if he tried hard enough.
Onrad lays into the Drow and scores mightily snding big chunks of lich all over the place.
Gareth heaves the drow back through the whirling blades and prepares to battle them again himself if he truly plans to attach Morlas. (There is no way around them).
Tericus looks down in horror at two daggers sticking out of him.
Fai'Fasal screams even louder as Morlas is sent back through the barrier and away from him and intead charges straight at his former Matron Mother.
>>>>>>>
The Drow now hurting very badlysprouts two short swords into his hands and turns on Onrad a feral snarl across his face. Hitting him twice with slashes across the chest AC 39 & AC 39 for 21 points and two fortitude save DC 19 or lose 5 points of Constitution.
Morlas looking a bit shaken stands and send off a speel sending a bolt of lightening through to Gareth 66 points arcing over to Faifasal, Onrad, Symon and Jandar for 33 points each, reflex DC 23 for 1/2 damage

The warrior dodges some of the damage from Morlas's lightning (saved for 1/2) and quickly decides he is in the wrong place. He races through the blades yet again (saved for 1/2 - will reduce HPs next time), grapples the lich once more (Hit AC 55), and drags him back into the blades - and stands there. "Let us see which one of us can endure the most pain - you WRETCH!" He holds on for dear life, hoping he can hold him and prevent him from escaping.

Jandar is able to fight off the effects from the Slaad, grinning as he pushes the lich backwards, away from Symon. He is able to dodge the effects of the Lightning Bolt with evasion, deciding that he did well on the spells he has cast so far.
Jandar decides he's had enough of this particular Lich and casts his last high-level spell...Heal.(Jandar beat SR31+2 spell penetration=SR33 for 150 damage, or will save DC25 for 75 points)
Jandar looks at the lich and says,"Well, toad boy, you may have escaped me once, but not again! I will destroy you forever this time!"
Jandar makes sure to stay between the Slaad and Symon.

Hold on Gareth! You're the man!
Seeing Symon teleport, he breathes a sigh of relief.
Then come the attacks. He grits his teeth as the drow finally attacks back hitting him twice taking the 21 points. The first one causes a wave of disorientation to come over him. He know's those blades have Marteaus himself in them for sure! He concentrates to purge the effect from him and succeeds. (hero point). Then the second blade hits. He throws it off too.
[d20+15=29 d20+14=15 d20+14=20]
The Lightning hits and Onrad barely escapes with half damage taking 16 hpd more.
[d20+15=17]
[only 1 hero point left unless we earned some in that last battle....eh Kent?]
So he continues to tear into the drow.
His attacks hit AC41, AC43, AC39, AC21. The second attack is a possible crit. hitting AC30. The third attack is a possible crit. hitting AC41!
The damage in order is 19, 20, 20, and 19 if they hit. If the 2nd one critted, add 20 and 19 to the x3 crit. If the 3rd one critted add 20 and 23 to the damage.
He activates his cloak of displacement to see if it will affect the drow.

Gareth Once more dives through the spinning blades (1/2 damage is 33 points) and grabs Morlas as the lich nearly cringes in disbelief that Gareth would voluntarily brave the amount of damage occurring. Being pulled into the spinning blades, they both take 58 points more damage reflex save for 29 more points. Then they both start dancing a bit struggling against each other, one trying to escape the other trying r=to hold on. Moments later Morlas goes limp and the blade barrier dies away.
Onrad watches in horror as some of the wounds on the drow he is facing seem to vanish before his very eyes, even as his first three attacks again score on his opponent.
The drow in turn returns the favor and attacks again hitting AC 45 Crit threat AC 38 critical hit and AC 38 for a secon hit. The thrid strike once again goes astray. 32 points and two fortitude saves DC19 or lose 3 points of con.
The Slaad shimmers a bit as Jandar casts his spell and then the he opens his maw wih a horendous grin and emits a sound that might have been like a laugh, were it not so disgusting and evil sounding. (SR 36) and then answers Jandar's taunt. Aaarrh wwiiirrll deeesttroyy eeeeuuuuu! and sends a gob of spittle straight at Jandar. AC 37 ranged touch.
As soon as the spittle touches Jandar he feels something is not right 34 chaos damage, no save.
Symon manages to teleport safely to the other side of the roon just to the north side of the open door.
Fai'fasal is hit by the black ray and is suddenly no longer there (natural 1 on his save)
The matron turns her attention to those around her and tries the same thing on someone else, as a black ray of ugliness streaks toward and strikes Tericus in the chest. disintigrate 103 points damage; SR 25 negates, fort DC25 for 21 points

The warrior drops the remains of the lich in elation and disgust as the remnants of his stoneskin fall away (saved for 29 DMG) - knowing it is only a small victory if they don't find the phylacteries. He comes around the corner and focuses his attention to the Matron, closes, and attacks her. Ironic that it was Fai'Fasal who killed her outright in their last encounter only to be killed by her in the same manner (note: wouldn't the drow blade master have hero points?). As he closes he draws Max (Quick Draw) cuts into the newest member of the lich team - and the one that is going to have the shortest life of all... (Hit AC 51, 31 DMG - Save vs Disrupting Weapon).

Onrad screams as his opponent heals himself.
He grits in pain as he now is pretty much a bloody mess. Spitting blood at his opponent in defiance, he continues attacking.
"I need healing soon."
His first attack hits AC45 for 19hpd.
His second attack hits AC48 which is a possible crit. It crits hitting AC47 and does 66hpd.
His third attack hits AC28 missing.
His fourth attack automatically misses.

Jandar is a bit shaken as the Chaos effect hits him. He hasn't felt this before, so he has to shake it off. If things weren't son dire, he'd stop and figure out what's wrong, but he just gets mad instead.
He decides it's time to pull out the warhammer and whack his opponent. (used hero point on first attack, then hit AC 48 for 16 points with mace of disruption. He must make Will save or be destroyed, no spell resistance is allowed. I don't think the other attacks hit anything.)
(Kent with Holy Aura on Jandar, he if he succeeds in a melee attack, he has to save vs Holy Aura's DC or be blinded, per the spell)

For a moment, Tericus feels as if he is about to fall to pieces literally when something seems to just happen and the feeling goes away.
Gareth drops Morlas to the ground in disgust and turns toword the other action. Moving toward the Matron (45 ft) he starts heading her way, drawing Max as he goes. (no attack, as move is more than 5 ft)
The Drow attacking Onrad is once again hit twice by onrad and does his best to return the favor with his two weapons. Onrad just barely evades the last two strikes feeling the tip of the blade whiz by his neck and face the first attack however does manage to get through and is nearly critical but only does 12 points damage - fort save DC 19 or lose 1 point of con
The Slaad shakes off the possible disruption (26) and is not affected by the blindness apparently and leaps into the fray tooth and claww bared. Both claws miss Jandar but the slaad teeth latch on 24 points plus an addtional 9 points chaos damage from the spittle
The Matron sees Gareth coming and starts casting and a bone devil appears in front of the Matron and moves towad Gareth.
Symon readies his bow and his eys go wide as he see Gareth former foe pick himself off the floor and with an evil grin on his face casts a silet spell Cone of cold that catches Gareth flatfooted and square in the back. 52 points - reflex save dc20 no dex bonus for 26

As the warrior sees the bone devil appear, the hairs on his neck begin to rise and he somehow dodges as the icy blasts overtakes him (Saved for 1/2 note: Would the bone devil and matron get it too? 80' cone). He once again turns and to face the lich, hoping the reason he got up was a fakeout and not him coming back from being destroyed. Closing he uses Max to do some damage (Hit AC 62[Crit] & [55] - 24+24=48 DMG). "Well Max, looks like he's tougher than we thought...". Knowing the devil is right behind him, he positions himself so he doesn't get flanked.

Tericus joins Onrad in attacking the drow(hit AC 35 for 10 pts, AC 29 for 12 pts, and AC 27 for 7 pts). swinging his mace 3 times. "I dont have much left." the cleric tells Onrad

"Who has the wands of Cure Critical I bought for us? They will have to do. Thanks though! Keep Gareth alive. He's more important in this situation.
"Symon, we must find those phylacteries!"
He saves vs. the attack drain hitting DC35.
Onrad continues to tear into the drow with the hopes that we can actually take one of these opponents down this day.
He hits AC44 with his first attack doing 18hpd.
His second attack which had been critting hit AC33 for 22hpd.
His third attack hit AC37 and does 21hpd.
His final attack hits AC34 and does 20hpd.

Jandar swings again, getting frustrated at how difficult this creature is for him to hit.
He manages to connect with at least one shot for a little damage, but misses with the others. Jandar yells out,"This is taking entirely too long. Symon, can you find their phylacteries?"
(crit with disrupting weapon on undead? Probably missed anyway, but I rolled just in case)
(Will Save or he's destroyed)

The Battle Rages On [DM Jerry] d20+15=32 Monday February 21st, 2005 4:19:53 PM
As Gareth pounds yet again upon Morlas, in his second unlife, Morlas staggers under his blows, yet grins knowing this can't kill him. You can see in the eyes of Morlas that though he is both revelling in the battle as well as beginning to worry at the tenanicy of the heroes.
Holy Tericus joins into smacking upon the drow and his hits seem to do damage as does the quick and lethal Onrad. The drow yet again looks as if he's about to fall!
Then Mighty Jandar swipes mostly ineffectively against the Slaad. His frustration is showing; however, his determination is too. The Slaad just grins.
Symon fails at his searching for now. Luck is seemingly not with him at the moment.
----------- [will do the opponent's end of things in a bit. Need to do some more reading and ::ack:: some teaching. so hold on folks.]
Morlas reacts to Gareth's renewed attacks by firing another lightning bolt at him. [74 dmg. save for half at DC23.]
Morlas looking a bit shaken stands and send off a speel sending a bolt of lightening through to Gareth 66 points arcing over to Faifasal, Onrad, Symon and Jandar for 33 points each, reflex DC 23 for 1/2 damage.
The Drow feeling desperate, goes into a barrage against Onrad hitting him 3 or 4 times for 43 hps save vs. Fortitude DC 19 or lose one point of con.
Thd Slaad saves yet again against Jandar and attacks him back.
The Matron, seeing that Gareth has gone back to fighting Morlas, fires off a Flame Strike at Symon after rising to the ceiling from the floor. She does 43hpd, save for half at DC 21 reflex.
[have not heard anything from Kent since his last post on Thurs morning early. So I simply posted. I have no state, hit points, etc. so I'm winging it from what Kent has had these opponents do in previous rounds. Folks Kent would be posting if he could and would contact us if he could as well. We know him. He wouldn't leave us hanging in such an important battle if he wasn't just worn to the edge. So I'm helping my friend out here. Kent can adjust to what I've done.]

Onrad saves vs. the Fortitude attack hitting DC22.
"Surrender, Drow, and I'll make this quick."
Onrad tears yet again into the drow.
His first attack possible crits with a 51. The possible roll is a 49. The crit damage is 24 + 19 + 20 = 63hpd.
His second attack also possible hitting AC45. The possible hits 48! Yeah! The crit damage is 19 + 19 + 20 = 58 hpd.
His third attack hits AC37 missing a crit by 1. The damage if it hits is 23hpd.
His fourth attack hits AC21 missing.

Finally connecting with the slaad (AC 45) it once again saves vs disruption and claws back at Jandar connecting once and then chomps him again for a total of 41 points and will save dc22 or be stunned.
The drow shadow assassin finally falls to Onrad's and Tericus' combined assault, but there is no rest for the weary as the newly summoned bone devil starts their way.
As Gareth attacks Morlas he taunts the human fighter even as some of his wounds heal before the human's very eyes. "See you can not defeat me. Even the mighty Gareth is no match for me. You fell for the oldest trick in the book."

Seeing Morlas cast, the warrior dodges some of the damage from the shock (saved for 1/2). With both hands on Max he again strikes the evil incarnate standing before him. He taunts the lich back "We will see who falls this day tricks or no!". He hits him with 4 solid hits (AC 54, 46, 45, 43 for 29+32+32+33=126 DMG 4 will saves or be utterly destroyed).

Jandar narrowly avoids the stunning effects and, in his growing frustration, says,"Domi! Give me more power to smite this abomination!"
He casts Divine Power on himself and readies to do more battle, beaming with pride at the power coursing through his veins at the moment.
Symon Dracozyl (AC28, HP 30 of 126) (Holy Aura, Message, Heroism, Endure Elements, Extended Prestidigitation, Extended Arcane Sight, True Seeing, Detect Evil, Alter Self (halfling), Greater Magic Weapon, X-Ray vision) d20+45=56 Tuesday February 22nd, 2005 5:55:39 AM
Symon wonders for a moment whether is it dumb to search for the lichs' phylacteries in the middle of a fight. Then he comes to his senses. "Nah! If anyone can find something with a battle raging all around, it's me!" he murmurs.
He decides to search with renewed vigor. He moves over to some chests and uses his x-ray vision to look inside them. He wonders if they are evil -- maybe his current Detect Evil will help too? Not to mention his Arcane Sight?
[Search 56 today!]

seeing the bone devil headed their way, Tericus tells Onrad, "Wait a moment." then a pillar of flame engulfs the bone devil(casts flame strike on the devil, 47 pts of damage, Ref save of 20 for half)
OOC, im moving on friday, so thursday will be my last post for about a week. im sure we'll still be fighting, so someone will have to play Tericus for me while im gone. let me know who wants to do it so i can send my CS to you.
Onrad Tuesday February 22nd, 2005 3:45:12 PM
Not wanting to fall for the oldest trick after a reminder, Onrad, does a Coupe-De-Grace on the drow severing his head.
He then turns to watch the bone devil. However, his mind's eye is on Morlas and he takes a deep breath to clear his mind before joining Gareth.

Morlas continues grinning until Gareth's last strike where it is very obvious he is fighting with everything he's got to avoid being disrupted, but he manages to just avoid that threat. Casting again a rainbow of color pours from his hand.
All effects are negated with a SR of 33
Gareth is struck by three of the colors; red, green and blue. red; 20 points fire damage reflex - dc23 for 10 points, green; poison fortitude DC 23 or die - save takes away 3 points of constitution, blue; fortitude dc 23 or be turned to stone.
Onrad is struck by two colors: indigo and yellow.indigo; will save DC 23 or become insane(like insanity spell), yellow; 80 points of electical damage - reflex dc 23 for 40 points.
Tericus and Jandar are both struck by one color:Orange and blue. Tericus - orange, 40 points acid damage reflex DC 23 for 20 pointsJandar - blue fortitude save DC 23 or be turned to stone[b/]
The Slaad is also struck by one (red) and the Matron is struck by 2(red and blue). The bone devil is also struck by one: (orange)
The slaad utters a single word and Jandar's eyes suddenly starts fogging over (power word blind) No save. SR 31 negates
The Matron turns quickly to face Tericus and quickly sets off a volley of magic missiles 20 points
The bone devil unhappy about the flame strike and acid damage sends his whip flipping out at Onrad missing all three times.
Symon looks in a bunch of chests and sses a number of interesting things, but not what he is looking for, Just as Gareth calls out he sees that there is a prismatic sphere in the back of the room where it was not visible to him previously. Agreeing with Gareth, he realizes that the phylacteries are probably within.

Jandar gets hit by the blue ray solidly, feeling his body tense up for just a moment, until he manages to fight off the worst affects of the spell.(SR22, DC 37 save)
Then he gets hit with the spell from the Toad. As his eyes mist over, he manages to fight it off again, thanking Domi and asking for just a few more minutes(SR35). As the Slaad did earlier, Jandar merely smiles at him, then lays into him with everything he's got...hitting only once and howling in frustration. (18 points, Will save or be destroyed)

The warrior deftly avoids some of the fire damage, does not die and is not turned to stone (note: how would delay poison affect the 2nd ray? Would he still lose 3 Con?). He is clearly hurting but obviously has a lot of fight left in him. Both encouraged by seeing Morlas' struggle to overcome Max but disheartened that he still has such powerful spells at his disposal he spits out "So where is your confidence now? Looks like I might have more than you gave me credit for. And this time when I kill you it will be the last time!". He again cuts into the lich with his signature efficiency (AC 45,40,50,42 for 31+29+32+31=123 DMG 4 will saves or utterly destroyed).

Just dodging out of the way of most of the acid(used hero point to reroll save, save of 27), Tericus casts Cure serious wounds, Mass in order to heal some damage to his friends and to hurt the undead a little bit(everyone within 60' heals 35 pts of damage, all undead within 60' take 35 pts of damage, will save of 22 for half damage)
Onrad page timed out. lost rolls. sorry. Wednesday February 23rd, 2005 12:05:35 PM
Onrad feels madness creeping in on him. He laughs uncontrollably. Then shaking his head. "Nope that won't work either Morlas!"
He secretly cringes though knowing he got a lucky roll.
The lightning hits about the same time. He is hardly even conscious that he dodges it and takes half.
Onrad spins towards Morlas. He closes and attacks.
"Let's end this. Everyone on Morlas!"
He tumbles to attack. Striking once as he closes, he [Yeah!] hits AC52 which does 22hpd. He watches closely to see if the lich takes all of that.

"Huh!" Symon thinks. "How am I supposed to get through that?"
He wonders if he can teleport to the center. What the heck! He tries to blip into the center of the sphere.

As Onrad and Gareth both light into Morlas, several things happen almost simultaneously. Morlas screams, "Gareth Justinian, YOU ARE MINE!" Gareth starts to feel like some part of him is being ripped out of him will save dc 29, or be completely stunned for a round and I will email you anything else; no spell resistance and then Morlas vanishes (contingency spell).
Symon thinks about and then tries to teleport into the prismatic sphere but is shunted aside and lands on the floor in front of it, after having hit red and blue section; red - 20 points fire damage reflex dc23 for 10 points, blue - fortitude DC 23 or be turned to stone.
Tericus casts his spell and watches as it heals his friends and injures his enemies.
Jandar is frustrated by his lack of effectiveness and then it seems as though all of his prayers are answered as the slaad starts to quiver and vibrate and suddenly crumbles to dust and bones (disrupted Failed save).
The Bone devil once again lashes out with his whip at the closer Jandar and howls with frstration as he again fails to connect with his chosen target.
The Matron pulls a staff seemingly out of no where and strikes out at Jandar as well connecting with her first strike AC34 14 points

Jandar momentarily forgets the fight as his opponent turns to dust. He is about to cackle with glee when...whap, the drow pops him with her staff. Jandar turns to look at her, a smile slow;y creeping across his lips, knowing his protection spells are keeping him safe, for the most part. He grins at the matron for half a second, then attacks, warhammer pounding away. (hit AC51, 38, 36,31-he gets four attacks from the Divine Power spell, for a possible 82 points of damage, save for each hit against disruption.)
He yells out,"One down here, I'm on the matron now. Is everyone alive still?"
Onrad d20+33=38 2d6(5+6)+14=25 d20+16=31 Friday February 25th, 2005 4:23:58 PM

Onrad, not exactly sure that Morlas has not simply turned invisible, strikes at the place where he was before. He hits AC38 for 25hpd.

(ooc, OK all. I haven't left yet, but there were only one post on thursday, so i didnot post again an on friday there was only one more post, so I did not post again. You only have two opponents left facing you and both are fairly badly injured. Keep the pressure on, or I will be forced to assume you are just standing there and letting them whoop up on you.)
Symon sits there on the floor stunned by his bounce.
Gareth feels something ripped out from within, but takes no damage. He suddenly seems that everything seems to be so very grey and lifeless.
The Matron gets hit hard by Jandar's strikes, takes the damage and avoids being pumeled to dust.
Onrad did indeed hit the previous round, but nearly sits himslef on the ground as he swings mightily through the empty space in front of him.
The bone devil once again tries to "Whip" up on Jandar and finally connects with its first two for 28 points - Jandar make 2 fortitude saves DC 17 or be stunned for 2 rounds
The matron tries to retalliate, but misses Jandar with both strikes.
Symon Dracozyl (STONE!! AC28, HP 30 of 126) (Holy Aura, Message, Heroism, Endure Elements, Extended Prestidigitation, Extended Arcane Sight, True Seeing, Detect Evil, Alter Self (halfling), Greater Magic Weapon, X-Ray vision) d20+20=36 d20+14=18 Monday February 28th, 2005 7:16:00 PM
Symon attempts to enter the sphere -- any chance the Spell Resistance 25 conferred by the Holy Aura helps negate the effects of the sphere?
With a +4 on saves from the Holy Aura and a +2 from his Heroism, Symon is at +6 to saves. He makes his reflex save, and suffers 10 points of damage (does Evasion reduce that to 0?)
But that's a moot question, as his fort save fails and he turns to stone! He stands, still as a statue. He also looks cold and grey, like a statue. All he needs is a few pigeons!

Jandar easily avoids the worst of the first strike from the devil, but narrowly misses on the second. He turns slightly, grins almost evilly himself at the devil and says,"You're next, evil one. You'll be going home soon."
He turns back to the matron and decides to try to finish one before going after the other. With Domi's power coursing through his veins, and full of extraordinary strength, he swings mightily at the matron and yelLs,"DIE AGAIN, WENCH!" (Hit AC51, 49, 35, and 34 for 22+19+16+21=possible 78 points damage, save for how many hits vs disruption)
He yells again,"Someone talk to me! Give me a tally! I've got two on me and can't look just yet!" He suddenly wonders if he's the only one left, but doesn't dare look with two dangerous opponents on him.

"I'm still here and strong. I'm on the matron! I checked. Morlas has gone somewhere else for the moment.
Turning to the matron, he says, "Your leader has wimped out. This is your chance to live. Surrender and we'll take you back to the Floating City for trial and justice. It is your only hope. Until then, I attack."
Onrad, however, to emphasize the point, closes and attacks her. Since Morlas is gone, he tries his Cloak of Displacement once again.
He hits AC48 on the matron which if it hits is a possible crit. Probably not a crit. Damage is 19hpd unless it's a crit. If so, then add 48hpd to that.
Noticing Gareth, he yells, "Something's wrong with Gareth. Watch him! Help if you can.
"Gareth, listen to me! Fight it off! We need you! Struggle one more time, my friend! Oh Gods, Symon has turned to stone!"

The warrior just stands there a moment, wondering why he is here in this dark place. He looks over the treasure, he looks at those who call themselves his friends with ambivalence, and then looks at the shimmering wall with the newly minted stone statue in front of him. Trying to decide what to do - as all options seem to not matter - he decides to see what is inside the shimmering wall. Knowing what they came for is there, but wondering why it really matters (rolled random for 3 choices). He walks straight through the sphere wondering what he will find.

Between Jandar and Onrad the matron is looking quite badly and manages to make 2 weak and innefective swings with her staff that miss everything.
The bone devil faced with a new adversary turns, dropping his whip and attacks tericus connecting with one of his claws for7 points
Gareth makes his choice and uncaringly walks through the prismatic sphere, somehow choosing an area that only has two colors in it. Red and blue: the red burns at him 20 points of fire damage and he doesnt even seem to care and try to avoid any of the fire. As he enters the blue area gareth feal himself start to go stiff like stone, and while his mind doesn't seem to care his body begins to fight it off itself. fortitude save DC 23 or become stone

Tericus swings back at the bone devil(hit ac 38 for 5 pts, ac 27 for 8 pts, and ac 22 for 7 pts). then he prepares for the return attack
Symon (Stone) Wednesday March 2nd, 2005 4:12:03 PM
Symon stands stock still, frozen with fear, or perhaps with magic that has turned him to stone. One or the other!

The warrior walks through the wall and is horrified as he stiffens up. Maybe its instinct - or perhaps residual will - that makes him try harder to not completely lose control of himself (Hero point reroll of a natural 1). Making it through he sees what he can see, wondering if Morlas will be there.". If so, he decides to attack since that is what he was doing before this horrible apathy towards everything came over him (rolled 50/50, attack/not attack).

Jandar, sensing an end to the undead matron, swings with fury, especially after hearing about those companions who are either dead, or close to it. (AC53,45,28,31 for 18+17+20+17=72 possible and save 4 times for disruption)
When the drow goes down, if the drow goes down, he swings towards the bone devil to see how Tericus is faring and yells to Onrad, "I'm going after Gareth and those phylacteries. Help Tericus with the devil. Domi be with you my friends." He then sprints toward the same spot Gareth entered the prismatic sphere, praying to Domi for protection from what he knows is coming.

(OOC, sorry for the early post, but its my only opportunity to get on today and since i dont want to be replaced, ive got to post now)
Tericus continues to attack the bone devil, swinging 3 times at it(hit ac 24 for 12 pts, critical hit of 36 with a follow up of 32 for 5 and 6 pts, and hit AC 18 for 5 pts)

Onrad, nodding at Jandar, pokes and prods the matron in all her vulnerable places.
His first attack hits AC47. Damage is 18 hpd.
[d20+33=47 2d6(1+3)+14=18]
His second attack hits AC37. It does 22hpd.
His third attack hits AC35. It does 24hpd.
His fourth attack hits AC37 and is a possible crit. Oops probably not. If it hits it does 23 hpd.
His cloak of displacement continues to function.

Between the continued onslaught from Onrad and Jandar, the matron falls to lay unmoving upon the floor.
Tericus attacks the bone devil and connects a couple of times until the matron falls and then the bone devil pops out.
Gareth, on the inside of the sphere, finds a small stone sarcophagus set within the center of the sphere. It appears to be made from obsidian or possibly black marble. It is roughly six feet in length and twelve inches wide. It also appears to be sealed with some sort of sealant and if he really cared enough to do it could estimate its weight at around 1600 pounds (depending on what was inside).
Symon continues to ponders life as a pigeon potty.
****Combat is now over****

Looking over the stone sarcophogus the warrior chooses to see what is inside (1=open/2=don't open). He reaches down and opens the crypt lid with all his strength (DC 31), not really caring what it is that seals it.

Jandar follows Gareth's path, figuring they can take care of Symon soon enough, but that they have to destroy the phylacteries. That is first on the list. So he heads through the sphere(is it still up?) and takes the punishment it deals to find Gareth and the source of the lich's power.
Tericus(AC 31, HP 167/115, Bless, Delay Poision, Holy Aura, Righteous Might, damage reduction 15/evil, SR 25) Friday March 4th, 2005 9:25:42 AM
after all the liches fall, Tericus goes over to every body and presses his holy symbol into them blessing the bodies
Onrad Friday March 4th, 2005 4:12:41 PM
Onrad nods at Tericus' actions with the dead. He follows that up by cutting off the head of the matron to be sure she is dead.
Then he heads to the center of the room and holds his bloody rapier at the ready.
"He wouldn't just leave with his phylactery in the sphere. Destroy that and he's dead. Either he will return, or that is not his phylactery.
"This is not yet over--although it may be for now."
"Talk to us Gareth. Let us know you're ok in there and what you are doing."
He turns off his cloak of displacement.

Gareth puts everything he has into pulling the lid off, but is unable to even budge the lid, even the smallest amount, from the sarcophogus (sovereign glue).
Between the head cutting and the holy symbols the liches really seem to be unmoving, at least for a while.
Jandar moves toward the sphere gritting his teeth as he approaches. He is not exactly sure what is going to happen, but is very aware that whatever it is could be quite nasty. He looks for a place that is less colorful than others and has a point chosen and he steps forward, only to catch the colors start to move yet again as he comes into contact with the scintilating orb. Three colors; Red, Orange, Green.
Red - 20 points fire damage - reflex DC23 for 10.
Yellow - 80 points electricity damage - relfex DC 23 for 40
Green - Poison - Death - Fortitude DC 23 for loss of 3 points of constitution instead.
all effects are negated by a SR of 35
The black pudding slowly moves closer to the symon statue.

Jandar takes a deep breath and goes through the sphere. The sphere affects him as his spell resistance isn't enough to beat all the effects. He avoids damage from the fire because of his ring. He dances enough to avoid the electricity with his ring of evasion and Domi blesses him with luck enough to only lose some of his constitution from the gas. He nearly hurls and feels immediately less healthy from the loss of that constitution, however.
Jandar, seeing Gareth alive, is happy, until he realizes the liches phylacteries are not in the open, not that he really expected them to be.
He bows his head and calls upon Domi yet again saying, "Domi, you have blessed me much this day and all my life. I call upon you yet again as a faithful servant, serving you always and without question. Grant me the strength to remove this lid so that we may end the terror caused by these abominations. Show the Wold the power of your might through me, I beg of you."
He moves to the sarcophagas and flexes his sizeable muscles... then heaves with all the strength Domi has given him. (Strength domain special ability:perform supernatural feat of strength once per day giving strength enhancement equal to level(+18), which gives him the strength of an ancient gold dragon-46/47. He's also 12 feet tall and weighs 1600 pounds due to Righteous Might.)

The warrior watches the huge Jandar try to lift the lid. "What's that stuff on the seal (pointing out the glue)?". He feels no desire to help Jandar out and wonders why because he knows he used to - and very much. (Are you able to hear through a prismatic sphere?). Hearing the calls of the others he just simply feels no need to return their queries.
The calm after the cataclysm (DM Cayzle) Monday March 7th, 2005 7:03:12 AM
Inside the Prismatic Sphere, Jandar makes a superhuman effort but it is not enough. The glue binds the lid as if it were melded to the stone. The lid simply will not open. But the phylacteries, if they are within, are so tantalizingly close! How to get at them?
Gareth does not seem to care about the puzzle. He seems apathetic in general. That might seem odd to Jandar, standing nearby.
The others stand outside, ready to attack the liches should they reanimate. They can call through the sphere, but as the colors in the hemisphere shift, the sounds fade in and out. It may take some repeated shouting to communicate simple ideas.
Those outside also see the black pudding crawl over the stone Symon, but as puddings attack only organic matter, it does him no harm.
Beginning to take stock, you also note that Fai'Fasal fell unnoticed in battle. In fact, he is dead. There is, of course, no sign of Morlas.

As the warrior sees Jandar make his unfruitful attempts to open it, he muses, "If I wanted to open it I'd use that hammer to smash it. But hey, that's just me..." (made 50/50 to speak or just stand there).
