ARGH. I had the entire post written almost and then my computer crashed... now I'm in a rush to get to class on time.
Tell ya what, there was about 2 rounds worth of running to reach the inn. Any prep things you want to do, go for it. Buffs, ranged attacks, anything you feel like accomplishing before getting to melee distance, post it before 8pm tonight, that's about when the DM post will be (b/c I work late on tuesdays it turns out)

Devlin surges forth getting as close as he can before his companions rush in to meet the undead horde. He drops to one knee and fires one of his crossbows at the undead abomination. As his companions pass him Devlin uses the confusion and bodies to find a spot to hide and get a better shot.

Naldin runs to get close enough to the largest threat to get a few shots off. His first shot, though not his best shot, felt good enough. But before he check it's outcome, he'd already nocked his second arrow and let it fly.

Boomy runs up front, holding his guirsame up high. As he approaches the horror he breaks the goblin seal under his arm, casting True Strike uphimself for his first attack. As he approaches the horror he feels the adamantine cut deep into the flesh.
Hit AC 28 for 9 dmg.
DM Addison d20+1=18 ; d12+1=6 ; d20+1=10 ; d20+1=13 ; d20+3=13 ; Tuesday January 25th, 2011 8:00:24 PM Boomy sets the plan and the group begins to charge into action, heedless of their own wellbeing.
Naldin and Devlin unleash a barrage of ammo at the Undead horror, bolts and arrow sticking from the side of the creature's chest cavity.
It turns and ROARS at the group.EVERYONE Make a DC 14 Will save vs fear Failure or you are SHAKEN
The wave of the roar tears through the Dwarves in a large cone-shaped burst, Braugh, Boomy, and Max charge the big Undead Horror and get a face full of it.
Nonetheless the three melee Dwarves jumpkick and slash at the creature, begining the second large encounter of the RiddlePort Apocalypse.
This Undead Horror is different from the last one. The last one was fat and puked stuff up. This one is tall and muscular, it is blood red as it has no flesh. Its skull-like head has several large teeth coming from it, truly a horrifying thing.
Braugh's axe strikes true, bringing forth blood.
Tahni applies some restorative magics on Frootloop, making him feel as if he rested for several hours. (Kept him next to Tahni for protection. ;)
Then, the Zombies that are trying to get into the house take notice of the roar and turn to see the group approaching. They charge!
DwarvenZ 6 is a burly little Dwarven Zombie. He had a large dark beard in life and large arms. Apparently it can use weapons, because he runs up to Boomy and slashes with a Greataxe! Hit AC 18 for 6 damage! The cut is deep and blood pours from his chest.
HumanZ, wielding a katana, and Skeleton 5, wielding a shield and battleaxe, charge Max, but the Paladin manages to fend them off with his shield arm. (miss AC 10 and 13)
Dwarven Zombie 2 comes around the back and flanks Braugh with the Undead horror. It's a lanky redheaded dwarf zombie with a large 2-handed warhammer.
Tahni feels Daya's joy as the bird returns to her mistress to report. She squaks loudly, "Beyond to the beach the explosion damage is not so bad. The center of the city has the most damage. I saw a terrible thing and then a wonderful thing. The terrible thing was a large wooden structure that seemed to be a feasting ground for hundreds of undead. Then, I saw a small skiff that set sail recently from the port' He was paddling madly away into the straight.

Daya's return uplifts Tahni's spirit, as the undead horror emits its roar (Will Save vs DC14 = 26. Pass). Daya takes a familiar place on Tahni's shoulder, not keen to leave her friend's side again any time soon.
The smell of a nearby forge reminds Tahni of home, a place she would gladly be right now.
Remembering how she fared in the most recent fight against the undead, she takes a step towards the archers (Move 5ft to the NW) and casts Shield. Arcane Check=81. Ok

Devlin slides into the shadows concealing his location but the ear splitting roar of the Undead Horror facing them still reaches him. His ears ring and his vision fuzzes over for a second. Shaking his head to clear it he lines up a shot on the dwarven zombie advancing down the right flank. Just a bit closer He thinks to himself. He waits until the creature is close enough that his shots will be able to hit weak points on it.

As the dwarven zombie approaches Boomy he attacks it from a distance using his trusted adamantine Guirsame, cleaving it deep. The zombie's roar is deafening, if it wasn't for the memory of using another zombie's head to attack the previous horror, he would surely have succumbed to it. Seeing a zed on each side, the monk feels the best thing to do is to attack them both. Kicking the undead horror and punching the dwarf in the face the monk unleashes his wrath....He prays to Domi that the Dreugar aren't watching. With the damage he inflicted it may look as though he were merely petting the zombies and offering his had up as a snack.

yadda yadda yadda Frootloop upon seeing the monstrous undead, and overcoming it's vocal attempts, goes back into rage. (save of 15,phew)
Frootloop moves forward, gripping his great axe with determination, and slashes out at the beast in selfish rage.
*hit ac20 for 15 damage*
Addison: If you don't specify which hex you want to move to, then I will move you where I think is tactically the best, is that ok? Though there arent many hexes free around the Undead Horror, and you may incur AOO.

Naldin moves to the southwest so that he can target the creatures without threatening his companions. As the biggest creature roars, Naldin lets out a yell of his own, Sound off all you want, beast! You will soon be no more! Seeing two of his fellows engaging the horror, Naldin decides to target the other enemies around them, so that they are not distracted from their present task.

Your hands tremble and your feet shake, making you clumsy at the hand-eye stuff. You get -2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. Shaken is a less severe state of fear than frightened or panicked.
Devlin holds his position, ducked below anything's notice. Then he unleashes a volley at the DZ 1 on the right flank. One arrow lands in the things jugular. This particular zombie has a shield and a battleaxe. Its red eyes focus on Devlin. It charges and raises its battleaxe at the Rogue, ending its charge with a wild slice downward. Hit Devlin AC 19 for 9 slashing damage! Reduced by 1 for the adamantium chain shirt though.
Meanwhile, Boomy has his own battle going on (don't forget the 6 damage from last round then, it hit AC18). His AOO slashes the heck out of the creature, sending it reeling back spewing bloody juices. The Dwarven Zombie stands back up though and takes another swiping backswing at Boomy. The monk dodges the blow though (miss AC 11). (misses on the fisticuffs)
Frootloop and Kreyton get into a combat state of mind. THe barbarian focusing his rage into the heft of his axe (you took Guarded Stance for your rage buff right? thats +1AC while raging or something?). The Druid wielding his oaken club like a tree branch. Apparently they both ate their Wheaties this morning, b/c Frootloop cleaves the Human Zombie in half longways and Kreyton smashes the skull of DZ2, sending brain matter everywhere. Hero point for Kreyton and Frootloop for getting one shot kills.
Braugh's axe is swiped to the side by the Undead Horror and it returns with a strike at the paladin. It swings its huge red clawed arm, but Braugh absorbs the blow with his shieldarm. He can feel red anger behind the blow. (miss AC 10)
Then, the rest of the creatures that weren't included in the above counter attacks charge too! Zombie PC 1 and Dwarven ZOmbie 7 charge Frootloop swinging their weapons wildly (miss AC 4 and 10)
Skeleton 5 attacks Max with its axe and sliced into him for 4 damage!

Take to the air out of reach of these abominations, but stay close" Tahni requests of her familiar as the raven lifts off from her shoulder.
Tahni sees the dwarven druid tremble, though being so close to that many undead it is not surprising. Ignoring the consequences of the last time she rushed in to aid a colleague, she steps forward and places a hand to his back "Be calm. Alemi is with us this day."Move 10ft SW.

Wincing in pain Devlin drops his crossbows and Draws his axe. With the fear still affecting him he focuses on keeping himself alive. He keeps as much distance between him and the creature, his axe makes wide arcs attempting to keep the zombie at bay.

Bruagh drives his axe deep into the Undead Horror before noticing the zombies making their way into the building. "Let's finish this thing then go keep the others away from those in the building!" As soon as he pulls his axe free of the horror, whether dead or not, Bruagh will run to the defense of those in the building, trying his best to keep any more zombies from getting in. Hopefully the Horror will pursue Bruagh.
Looks like Bruagh will incur one or two AoO's.

Max arcs his greataxe towards the undead before him, but is distracted by the thought of others in the nearby building. The blow turns out to be weaker than he anticipated. Hit AC10 for 4DMG. Aiming for the undead horror if it's still "alive". Probably a miss
Naldin AC18/16/12 CMD17 HP26/26 d20=18 ; d6=3 ; d12=2 ; Thursday January 27th, 2011 9:57:22 PM
Seeing the damage Devlin just took, Naldin drops his bow and in one swift motion swings his great axe from behind (quick draw) to attack DZ1.

Then the cleric moves to cast her restorative touch on Kreyton, successfully curing the druid of his shaken condition. So basically, he feels brave again?
Devlin is shaken and drops his crossbows to his feat, draws his axe and takes a swipe at the zombie in front of him. 11 is a miss though. It counters with a swipe of its own battleaxe, miss AC 13.
Boomy keeps up the assault with another flurry, his foot connects with the shin of the undead horror. It roars back at the monk
Frootloop catches the axe of the zombie with his own, pushes the creature back with a violent thrust and severs its head with a backswing... 2 dead in 2 rounds. nice.
Braugh slices into the side of the Undead Horror again. He shouts to get into the building, but the path is quite blocked. The Undead horror counters but misses AC 11.
Kreyton steps up and swings at the DZ 6, missing terribly (Tahni cured you.). Max likewise misses.
Naldin steps up to help Devlin and delivers a slice that severs the Dwaven Zombie's left shield-arm!. Nice hit.
The DZ with a greataxe attacking boomy misses AC 13. Skeleton misses AC 14, and Zombie PC misses AC 7. Yikes, you guys are lucky!
There is an explosion from the east and the fire seems to spread closer to the market square you are currently in.
(The map is prety much the same minus the things you killed. think yall can finish this battle and we can move to the next one inside the house? New map, i'm working on it. should be up Monday. Squares!)

With Kreyton feeling more secure, Tahni turns her attention to Devlin. Staying behind the warriors, she approaches him from behind, and aids him as she did Kreyton. "Steel yourself. They are but souls that need help to find peace" she says with a calming touch to his back. OOC: Move north, behind Kreyton and Devlin, to finish immediately behind the two.

Naldin looks toward the house that Devlin mentioned and sees the undead creatures entering the building. Then, for a instant, he sees another set of undead creatures overtaking a small stone hut and feeling a sharp pang that he cannot get to it. But then, coming back to his current situation, he realizes that he can get to the attacking zombies.
With a thunderous yell, Naldin tears out in a full run at the zombies that are entering the building where the cries for help were coming from swinging his great axe at any undead creature that comes within range.
Addison: Can you please be more specific as to where you want to move? Like how many hexes in what direction? And which enemy do you want to attack. I posted a map for a reason.

Tired of his constant missing Boomy takes a deep breath and focuses his mind. With a yell to match the horror's the monk unleashes another flurry of blows upon his two attackers, landing a solid blow on each. He is dissapointed that the blows didn't cause more damage, but hopefully it will finally be enough to take down his foes.

Max, Kreyton, Braugh, and Boomy all swing at the Zombie horror. Max tearing flesh in a wide arc on its body. Monk's fist pound ribs to dust. The Druid's oaken club brings the creature to the ground as he smashes the kneecap into oblivion. Then Braugh finishes the deed with a final blow to the skull, separating the jowels from the creature.
It is dead. Team effort of several rounds of pounding away.

Tahni takes a moment to catch her breath. The peace of the battlefield makes it easy for her to notice the sounds of combat coming from the tavern (Perception: 26). "Daya, the large wooden structure you saw, was it that building there?" Tahni asks her familiar, pointing at the tavern.
Gathering the wounded combatants around her, she channels some healing energy to the party (Everyone heals 2HP. Saving the last energy channel for the day in case there are more undead).
"We don't have time to rest just yet. There is more trouble ahead, I fear" she says, as she pats Frootloop on the back yet again, relieving him of his exhaustion. (Use Restorative Touch. A clerics job is never done) "Daya advises that there are hundreds of undead nearby, and that she saw a small skiff sailing into the straight. Survivors perhaps."

Devlin -- 18/14/14 -- DR 1/- -- CMD 15 -- HP 14/20 Monday January 31st, 2011 10:24:04 PM
Bolstered by the calming touch and healing aura of Tahni, Devlin readies his crossbows and prepairs to once again meet the undead horde. Lets get those people to saftey we've already lost enough momentum. He says looking nervously around at the approaching horde.
DM Addison Monday January 31st, 2011 11:43:10 PM Boomy and Braugh take the lead in hacking the remaining three zombies to pieces
Daya responds to Tahni, "No. The wooden structure I saw was a huge platform, not a cabin-like tavern like this. It may have been a place for theatre or public meetings. I don't know why so many undead are there, just that they are."
Tahni and Kreyton do some healing for the group.
The group runs into the house and begin hacking through more zombies that walk around mindlessly.
The interior of the building is quite different from the exterior. There seems to be a fenced off area filled with small books and... toys?
Then you notice the horror around you. The dead bodies... many of them are... children.
Perception or Heal DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: {"You notice one child still breathes.}
Then, you can hear a crash from upstairs and a woman's voice shout, "Your a monster. You belong in the abyss with the demons you worship!"
What do you do?
Feel free to take several turns worth of actions as you guys are in the downstairs.

Devlin motions for the others to stay back. Pointing to the rest of the group he hold his hand up to wait. He than points to himself and upstairs and lifts his crossbows with a smile on his face before slinking quietly up the stairs.
Once in view of the commotion upstairs Devlin will not hesitate to fire upon the creature or person assaulting the female voice. If pursued he will tumble down the stairs leading the foe to his waiting companions.

(Perception: 27. Heal 9)
Tahni feels physically sickened by this room. She tries to seek comfort in the fact that they were spared from becoming undead. But children! "This act is beyond evil" she says in a whisper.
The slightest movement from one of the bodies catches Tahni's attention. Ignoring the risk of danger, or that it could be a zombie trap, Tahni pushes past the fighters to reach the still breathing child.
She cradles the child in her arms as divine healing flows from her palms (Use Calming Touch to heal 6pts of non-lethal damage and remove fatigued/sickened/shakened status if present). As the child regains consciousness Tahni will speak in hushed tones "There now. My name's Tahni. Are you ok? Here, eat this. It will make you feel better" Reaching into the pocket of her robe, Tahni pulls out a small piece of blue candy and offers it to the child. Highlight to display spoiler: {A pocket in Tahni's robe produces candy (3 + Wis Bonus + Character level pieces per day). Each piece provides sufficient nutrition for a child for 1 day.}

Bruagh stands stoicly as he takes in the sight of the dead children. Perception DC 12 Highlight to display spoiler: {A single tear rolls down the corner of Bruaghs eye, leaving a trail through the soot along his cheek. It's obvious this is hitting him hard, possibly hinting at a loss of his own, or some other similar event in his past.}
Bruagh doesn't see any movement at all until Tahni moves toward the child. He immedietly falls in behind her inspecting the childs wounds, and helping as best he can. Not able to stand seeing this child in pain, Bruagh lays his hands on the child and let's the soothing, protective magic of Domi flow through the child.
Bruagh cradles the child protectively as Tahni hands the child a piece of candy. "Its ok, you're safe, we won't let anything hurt you. You will be safe with us."
Bruagh contains the emotion in his voice as well as he can, knowing this is one promise he will either keep or die trying.

If the scene of death and horror shakes Kreyton, he doesn't show it beyond a slight hesitation as he enters the room. "Like oaks everyone, don't let this break ya." he whispers to the party. Seeing the child is well in hand, and concerned about the shouts upstairs, he moves in that direction.
Responding to the woman's call, he shouts up "Ya I've been called worse. You need a hand up there"
He moves up the stairs as he shouts.

Boomy takes the lead and carefully makes his way towards the yelling woman, ever cautious of danger. If there are enemies and people needing protecting he will tumble through the enemies while drawing his alchemical silver dagger and will try to place himself between the woman and her attacker(s) and line it up in such a way as to give his friends flanking abillity if possible.

DM Addison Tuesday February 1st, 2011 7:48:19 PM
Woah there tigers. It seems Devlin wants to stealthily check it out while Kreyton and Boomy would run up and intercept immediately. Both are valid options for beginning a combat, but I need a consensus amongst the group. I suggest talking in character and make a general attack plan for things like this.
Hand signals are a good idea too. But why do you guys think that you see anything yet? All you did was hear a scream and run upstairs. Your in an antichamber. Don't jump ahead of yourselves.
Tahni. I didn't say that your power brought the child from consciousness. You don't know what condition its in yet!
As a matter of fact, this particular child has a huge bone structure erupting from its chest. Like, not his bones. But it looks like the claw of a creature. Knowledge nature DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: { Its in fact a claw of a drake}.
Your calming touch removes bruises, scrapes and such, and clenses his wounds, and fills him with bravery but its Braugh's Lay on hands that brings the wound to seal around the claw.
DC 15 Heal check to remove the claw with no adverse affects on him.
He seems to be a dwarf, probably 15 to 17 years old (which would look like an 8 year old in human years). Dark skin, with curly black hair.
I assume you take him with you into the next room?
Please tell me what squares you walk onto.
You can definitely hear a scuffle going on in the next room. But its down the hall a ways.
Tahni -- AC18/10/18 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor, Shield Tuesday February 1st, 2011 7:52:59 PM OOC: Tahni is tending to the child, so in terms of how to handle going upstairs, I'll defer that to Devlin, Kreyton and Boomy to work out :)

The thought of these undead creatures hurting more people is making it difficult for Naldin to wait for a stealthy approach. However, he stands his ground with bow in hand ready to bolt forward if the opportunity arrises. In the meantime, he waits...
Boomy HP 20/20 AC 17/17/16 Tuesday February 1st, 2011 8:45:50 PM

Whatever it is extruding from the chest of the lad, it certainly does not belong there. Taking a firm grasp of it, Tahni times her movements in line with the boys breathing, and as he exhales she pulls the claw free and applies some makeshift bandages to the wound (Heal: 16 - Success, phew!). "Sssshhhh. Easy now" she says in a comforting tone to the boy, unaware if he can hear her or not. She pockets the claw for the time being and cradles the boy in her arms as she stands. "Your strength will be needed for other matters, I fear" she whispers to Bruagh, motioning in the direction of the noises in the next room.
Tahni will follow at the rear of the party, carrying the boy (Hands unavailable for casting. Assume no strength check needed to lift the boy, though Tahni would now be carrying a medium load in terms of encumbrance).

It pains Bruagh to leave the boy, but he shakes his head solemnly towards Tahni as he backs away to move with the others. It takes every ounce of will power in his body for Bruagh to rip his eyes away from the boy and on to the task at hand.

ooc: Can you clarify what / who is alive on the map and if we are able to squares -3 to 7.
My interpertation is that the the only thing still living visible is in i/2, but I cannot tell if it is human or undead. It looks like there is a wall between squares 7 and 8, and I am assuming we need to go south to get there. If that is the case, can you extend the map further south. With Boomy's increased run speed he can move and aditional 40 feet south (beyond the map) this turn if he runs. I do not want to run ito unknown territory and end in the middle of three horrors.
Addison: Again, my apologies. I will make all things clear for the next post. Mind if I just have you move as far as you can this round?

DM Addison Wednesday February 2nd, 2011 10:56:05 PM
Map: You got cobblestone looking walls going down 7 and 8. Buncha beds, cabinets, shelves, big creepy fuzzy dolls, dead bodies. All interactable. Antichamber is where the staircase is.
Tahni carefully removes the claw from the dark skinned dwarven lad's chest. Blood spurts as she does so. Heal DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: { This wound is bad. And the tissue looks necrotic. Maybe a poison or dark energy of some kind infests it?}. Nonetheless, she takes the boy and carries him in her arms up the stairs behind the group. Epic yo.
Boomy is precise (yeah, there was something there wasn't there. I like to put hints for the observant. What did you see? He takes off at a quick pace down the hall. Naldin and Devlin follow close behind stealthily and move as well.
Devlin ONLY perception check DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: {Traps yo! Specify where you want to look, use the map.}
The heavy tanks, Braugh and Frootloop hold back with Kreyton, Tahni and the wounded child.
Up front, Naldin and Boomy lead the pack.
As they walk, they view gore and bodies about them. Children with large holes in their chests. Organs seem to be... ripped out?

The wound looks familiar to Tahni, similar in fact to the wound Bruagh suffered a few days ago in the tavern. (Heal check: 27 ). Necrosis, perhaps? It's a miracle the boy is still alive. She will keep an eye on the boys breathing, as well as any signs of a temperature, monitoring his condition in case he worsens. When time next allows, she will wash/clean the wound with fresh water (via Create Water spell).
She holds the boy close to her as they pass the bodies of other children. With one hand behind his head, Tahni holds the boys face in to her shoulder, trying to shield his eyes from the sight of the room.
Tahni recalls hearing smaller explosions emanating from inside this building as they approached. She keeps her eyes open for scorch marks, or clues as to what they may have been (Perception: 22. 25 if this area is considered well lit).
She can only watch as the floor gives a loud crack and seemingly falls away beneath Boomy and Naldin. Her first instinct is to call out to them, but she stays her tongue remembering that there could still be a threat nearby. She inches along the wall, wary of stepping onto open floor lest it too give way, and not wanting to put herself or the child in harms way at the front of the party. (Move to -C,11). Based on the damage to the town, it is no surprise that the buildings are unstable.
Continue to ready an action to turn her back to any attack against her (free action - offering a voluntary flank?) in order to protect the child.

P.S. The person I saw on the map last round has vanished or run away. If I would have to guess I would say it is a bad guy. The picture was grainy, but it looked like large guy either flexing hs arm or holding a mace. He was 5 ft. South of Naldin, but on the other side of the wall just around the corner.

Tahni creates a bubble of water in her hand and attempts to wash the festering black wound in the boy's chest. She does a pretty good job of it with her heal check, that plus the healing magic seems to keep him stable, but there is definitely something more to this...
Then, there is a loud wail in the next room. It sounds like a woman!

The others are getting further ahead of her now, so she tries to keep pace. (Move to B14.) In the room, she will look over the bodies, trying to look for any signs of life (Perception on the dead bodies in the room, looking for signs of breathing: 13. 16 if the area is considered well lit)

Taking a deep breathe, Naldin thanks Pantheon for the ability to avoid this trap.
So, getting there will not be as easy as we first believed, Naldin said. But if we were to follow the beds around the far wall, perhaps we can make it that way.
Naldin points to the beds that line the east wall. He started to say something about watching your step, but it was easy to see in his companions eyes that it was not necessary to say out loud.
Naldin heads toward the first bed on the north wall (a straight line from E10 to A14) where he will stand on the bed, staying in row A and moving to the other at A21. There he'll motion for Boomy to follow.
To Boomy, Naldin says, You go to the next bed, if it's safe, I'll come by you to the next one, until we get around the room.
Then to the others he says, Keep an eye on that opening for any bad guys that may come around. We'll do the same as we go around the room
OOC: Is that enough to make his plan clear? With undead attacking someone, he won't stay long for much discussion.

Devlin cautiously takes the lead. His eyes scan the room as he moves forward, wary of the floor he checks for loose floorboards and keeps an eye out for tripwires. He does this in silence, listening for a telltale click of pressure plates. He advances toward the bed with green covers and hides there between it and the wall. Once in place he will ready his crossbows and wave the others forward.

What is in Row Z 12-24 at the bottom of the screen? What is in Row 8 U-W just south of the opening to the next room? What is the item in the pink bed? Can we pick up the weapons we see on the ground, or are they just for decoration? Are they normal metals, or something unexpected like adamantine? (2 Cross Bows, 1 Shield, 1 Sword, Frying Pan, and what ever is stuck in the teddybear)
Addison Z 12? You mean the fireplace? UW-8 is a grandfather clock. That's a pacifier on the pink bed. Its a baby crib. Everything is interactable, just say something like "Boomy moves to X,Y and picks up the item."

"We better hurry, don't sound good" is all he get out as he hustles across the room.
OOC: Move to I-15, going around the grey patch.
DM Addison Friday February 4th, 2011 4:49:56 PM
UW-8 is a grandfather clock. That's a pacifier on the pink bed. Its a baby crib. Everything is interactable. THere are footlockers in F-8 and J-8, a pile of laundary in H, I 7,8. Huge beds that probably many children slept upon. There is a large scorched skeleton corpse on the ground. Like the bones were reduced to dust and assumed a similar shape.
Naldin has a plan to go around the outer rim of the room in order to avoid the traps. He does so, but it seems that Devlin wants to take the western route as he scans for traps. Kreyton just sidesteps the collapsed floor in hopes that the floor is safe there. He hops on the beds of the children in attempts to cross the room.
Devlin does in fact see something, right at his feet! A small, thin wire just barely reflect light. It extends the width of the room. The black line is the trip wire. Devlin can also see where the wire connects to the side of the wall. Someone went through some trouble for this one. You might have to rip out some wood panels to disable this one... Hmmmm.
As Tahni travels around the back, the child begins to open his eyes for the first time. He looks around, not really knowing whats going on. He tries to push Tahni's hands away from his eyes so he can get a look. Do you let him?
You hear some chanting in the next room. Knowledge Arcana or spellcraft DC 12 Highlight to display spoiler: { A spell is being cast!} Knowledge Arcana or spellcraft DC 14 Highlight to display spoiler: { Its a Necromacy spell!}
Ya know, I really need to learn how to use the vision blocking layer in this thing to cut off room that you cant see due to walls... lemme look that up.
So I considered using the lighting setting for vision, but then I remembered that you are all dwarves! HA Light means nothing unless its magical darkness...
Devlin -- 18/14/14 -- DR 1/- -- CMD 15 -- HP 14/20 Friday February 4th, 2011 9:36:29 PM
Devlin speaks up. Right we have three options I can disarm, we step over the wire, or we punch through the wall right here. With the adamantine weapons we can make it through fast and gain the element of surprise. It is just wood paneling after all. If someone punches a hole for me I can pop through get off my shots and get clear fast. He gets his weapons ready and nods to the warriors. Not much time lets do this.

"Ssshhh. Hush now, it's ok. We're here to help." Tahni says to the boy. Covering the boys eyes will only panic him further, so Tahni makes a decision. "I need you to be brave now, there is still some danger nearby and we want to save as many of your friends as possible" she says as she removes her hands from his eyes. (Diplomacy check maybe? Rolled 24). She will keep the boy held close to her, to try and prevent him from seeing the extent of his wound.
Words from the nearby room get Tahni's attention (Knowledg Arcana: 11, Spellcraft: 27). "No time Devlin. Necromancy!". Tahni will hold her ground for the moment. (Question to DM: Is the voice male or female? Also, the Spellcraft DC for identifying a spell as it is being cast is 15+Spell Level. For a roll of 27, can Tahni determine exactly what the spell is? Who knows, could be a "friendly" necromancy spell)
Continue to ready an action to turn her back to any attack against her (free action - offering a voluntary flank?) in order to protect the child.

Bruagh doesn't want a repeat of what happened outside, so he stands by the healer and the injured boy, standing guard as the others find a way to where they need to go.
Move to C,14 Aid Another to Defend Tahni, who is defending the boy. +2 to Tahni's AC correct?
RobC: Thanks mate. The rules re aiding another in combat: In melee combat, you can help a friend attack or defend by distracting or interfering with an opponent. If you're in position to make a melee attack on an opponent that is engaging a friend in melee combat, you can attempt to aid your friend as a standard action. You make an attack roll against AC 10. If you succeed, your friend gains either a +2 bonus on his next attack roll against that opponent or a +2 bonus to AC against that opponent's next attack (your choice), as long as that attack comes before the beginning of your next turn. Multiple characters can aid the same friend, and similar bonuses stack. So you need to make an attack vs DC10.

Devlin shrugs as noone offers to chop into the wall. I thought it was a good plan He carefully steps over the tripwire pointing it out to his companions. Making his way to the doorway he keeps an eye on his surroundings alert for more traps. Once at the opening he will peek around the corner and look for the source of the chanting.
If a target presents itself he will fire giving presidence to spellcasters. As always he will be cautious of innocents.

Meh, so much for aiding another.
DM Addison d4=3 Monday February 7th, 2011 11:12:13 PM Tahni allows the boy to see the horrors about him, but covers his wounds. The young dwarf looks around, horrified. His eyes begin to tear up and his grip becomes firm on Tahni's cloak. You can feel him shake. Tahni can also tell that the necromacy spell was meant to turn a powerful life into a powerful unlife... with a hint of... extraction? But the spell name is unknown to you, perhaps it was invented?
Oh, the voice was male btw.
Boomy follows behind Devlin, who in turn suggests ripping out part of the wall in order to disable the trip wire. Those are torches btw; I was playing with the lighting options on maptool.
The trip wire is the black line by Devlin
Kreyton comes up to the trip wire in his movement (it takes a move action to step over the wire. Its about 3foot off the ground)
Devlin stealthily peeks around the corner, and he is the first to see what all the screaming is about.
A tall, dark figure with a ghost-white face is standing over a mound of bodies and blood. He has white bone-like structures formed around his body, almost like an... armor? His hair is white and his eyes are glowing a dingy grey color.
His right hand is hovering over a woman's stomach, yellow and black runes spin around his outstretched palm, an a dark pool is beginning to form in the space between his hand and her stomach.
The woman has thick blonde hair and seems to be in a trance of sorts.
What in the world is going on?
Devlin sees this horror and fires his crossbows around the corner at the White-Faced Man.
This gets his attention. He turns his gaze, and one eye flashes a green color as he points a finger at Devlin and a quick jumble of words escape his lips. Spellcraft DC 16 Highlight to display spoiler: { He just casted Cause Fear} Devlin DC 15 Will Save or be Frightened for 3 rounds!
Tahni -- AC14/10/14 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor d20+8=24 ; Monday February 7th, 2011 11:40:36 PM "Sssshhh. It's ok. Noone is going to hurt you now" Tahni continues trying to comfort the boy. She considers laying him safely on the bed for the time being, however as his grip tightens, she realises that right now he needs comfort. "Now, there are things here you shouldn't see, ok? I need you to be brave and close your eyes. I'll be right here." she takes his hand and puts it on her chest "Feel my heartbeat, ok? Feel my breathing. I want you to close your eyes, and try and breath just like me, ok?"
Now that the boy has regained consciousness, she should be able to hold him in one arm, with his arms held around her neck. (I don't know how much the boy weighs, is a strength check needed to support him with one arm?)
The sound of another spell being cast worries Tahni, and she knows well what spell is being cast (Spellcraft VS DC16 - 24. Success). She gives Bruagh a worried look "Bruagh. I've got this. You go on ahead" she encourages her friend "Don't worry, Frootloop is still here. I'll be right behind you"
OOC: Question to DM: The hole that formed in the floor - does it look naturally cut (like a trap) or weak/damaged/splintered wood? Also, the claw removed from the boys chest, did it look like the claw was going into the boy, or coming out of him? ala the movie "Alien"? I'll post Tahni's movements based on these answers

Addison: The trap looks like it was formed from pre-destroyed planks and weakened framework, but a person definitely had a hand in camouflaging it look like normal floor for your benefit. The claw was shoved into the boy's chest and left there. Black ichor dripped from the pointy part of the claw as you removed it. It was approximately 10inches long and the greatest diameter was about as thick as a clenched fist, tapered to a fine point.

Devlin shakes the effects of the spell off and reloads his crossbows as he lines up his next shot. We got big trouble guys bring everything you got Trying not to hit the woman behind the necromancer his shot fly wide. Snarling at his luck Devlin ducks back behind the wall. Can anyone counter the spell hes trying to get off, there are a lot of bodies around him and I hate to think what he is about to do with them.

Bruagh moves quickly trying to get to the what's on the other side of the wall. He slows down to tries to get an eye on the trip wire, cautious to not set it off.
Double Move to K, 14.
Also, wouldn't it be easier for a dwarf who is only 4 to 4 and 1/2 foot tall to step UNDER the trip wire that is 3 ft off the ground that step over it?
Addison: LOL. True. Here is my thought process: "What would be the height that this thing would be at to justify them spending a move action to avoid? Hmmm." Then I stood up, imagined myself trying to avoid a wire.. and decided 3feet. But yeah, you guys is short.
Do note though that another option would be to take some time to disable the trap... which would be probably one round (and a good skill check) if Devlin had some help ripping the paneling off the western wall.

Boomy watches Devlin shake the effects of the spell off and realizes that they are dealing with magic. Immediately he charges towards the whitefaced man, not wanting to waste a moment to for fear of harm coming to the blond woman. As he runs he notices the bone armor protecting the and, and he prays he is not acting foolishly, knowing it will take the others a few seconds to catch up with him.

She can hold him with one arm just fine. He is clenched pretty tight. She follows behind and keeps out a vigilant eye out for more traps... as a matter of fact there is a suspicious square south of Devlin's position.
Devlin fires two more bolts at the man, but the terror of the sight must have gotten to him, because the arrows fly out a nearby window. He ducks behind the wall again.
Naldin, Braugh, and Kreyton all run up. Naldin must give me an Acrobatics DC 12 check to avoid the trip wire OR take an entire move action just for that.
Boomy begins running at a sprint to the white-faced man and the blonde woman. But as soon as he reaches the corpses, there is a loud CRASH.
He looks up to see something dark fall from the ceiling, then Boomy's world is black as his face gets stomped on. Then he feels the piercing of a blade enter his chest. Hit AC 23 for 4 piercing, 3sneak attack, and 6necrotic damage. for a total of 13 damage to Boomy! Blood spills all over the ground and a black ichor drips from the wound.
The visual looks quite different from Kreyton's perspective, as his vision is not blocked by falling debris from the ceiling and a foot in his face. He sees a tall, thin man-like creature dressed in all black fall from the ceiling and land feet-first on Boomy, then two wicked blades stab down, one connecting.
The white-faced man says something to the dark ninja, ONLY if you understand Draconic, Highlight to display spoiler: {He says, "Keep them at bay for a moment longer."} His voice is deep and multi-faceted, as if his body is possessed by more than one conscious.
The ninja but nods.
Then the White-faced man lifts the woman up by some disembodied energy and begins walking away from Boomy and the Ninja further into the room, seemingly concentrating hard on his spell.
Boomy HP 20/20 AC 17/17/16 d100=85 ; d20+3=19 ; Wednesday February 9th, 2011 11:07:31 AM
A life dedicated to the art of fighting allowed Boomy just a fraction of a second to react when he heard the ninja drop from the ceiling, and of course he did the one thing he trained so hard not to do...he stopped and looked up! He had just enough time to register the boots stomping his face before darkness over took him.
Off in the distance Boomy hears the voice of Domi calling him. Well done, my good and faithful servant....well done?...what was well done...slowly his memory returns, but it is difficult to hold on to. It was like to trying to recall the details of a dream that were quickly fading from his memory. The Girl!!! I need to help the girl!!! Suddenly his ill-fated charge comes back to him, as do the rest of his memories, and in a flash the peace and darkness are gone and he finds himself in some sort of limbo. He can here the actions of those around him, but cannot see or do anything. Somehow he must help. The potion, if he can just gather the strength to grab his potion...
Constitution save made, Boomy is now stable. (Ignore the d100, I was thinking of 3.5)
Addison: I love the roleplaying with the punches. Good job on this post. You can counter-attack though. You only took 13 damage and you have 20hp, so your OK for now. ;)

Naldin starts to make a running slide under the trip wire, but at the last second, decides it would be best, even though it will take more time, to stop and carefully go under it. Things are bad enough as it is, he thought to himself, Let's not make them worse by opening another trap for us to deal with.
So he takes his time and carefully scoots under the wire. Then he'll quickly jump us and ready an arrow to fire at the enemy around the corner. [the ninja]

Boomy feels the necrotic poison burn inside his wound, and tries his best to remember back to the bar fight. Is this the same type of poison that was used there? He tries his best (spellcraft = 1), but the excitement of battle and sting of the ichor prevents him from discerning any information.
Immediately Boomy realizes the direness of his situation. His back up isn't coming as quickly as he expected. Glancing at his opponent he realizes his opponent is wielding two short swords, light weapons that could easily be used if the monk tried grappling him. That's it, the swords are short! Boomy quickly takes a 5 foot step backwards while drawing his "borrowed" adamantine guisarme and attacks his opponent's sword, dealing it 10 points of damage.
Actions (Assuming his weapons are not adamantine) Spellcraft for poison = 1 5 foot step back Draw Adamantine Guisarme Sunder weapon Hit AC 18 for 10 damage. (Boomy is targeting a poisoned sword. If they are both poisoned he will attack the one that didn't hit him and has more poison left on it)
If the weapon is adamantine Boomy will attack the ninja Hit AC 22 for 10 damage.

DM Addison d20+9=12 ; d20+9=28 ; d20+9=27 ; d6+2=3 ; d6+2=6 ; d6=2 ; Friday February 11th, 2011 12:56:06 AM Devlin peeks around the corner and fires another volley of arrows at the retreating man. One just barely scrapes his armor.
This seems to piss him off.
He turns and stares at Devlin for a moment, locking his gaze, the dingy grey glow from his eyes flickering a bit. DevlinDC 16 will save or something...interesting... will happen...
Naldin carefully steps to Devlin's side and fires an arrow that is cut in half by the nimble ninja
His face is completely covered in a black mask, except for the eyes, but you think you can see him smile a bit.
Tahni carries the boy around the laundry bin, she also points out the trap at P7
Kreyton steps up and draws a spear.
Boomy takes a step back, draws his claimed Guirisame and begins swinging it with a viscous intent though he cannot tell if either of the blades have a poison on them or what metal they are made of. They are glowing dimly black though...
The ninja ducks and dodges, but the 18 beats his CMD and thus the sunder is successful, the blade of the Guirisame connects with one of the twin swords and cuts the blade clean in half. (You are not proficient with that weapon right?)
The ninja's eyes open wide as he sees one of his blades split in two before his eyes.
He locks eyes with Boomy, his are grey and full of anger. He is swift in his movement, taking a 5foot step forward and he begins to throw round kicks at Boomy's midsection. Then, at the las second he throws the broken short sword at Boomy (Feint roll = 12, You CMD is 20, so he failed at feinting you). Boomy sees that trick coming a mile away.
But the ninja is persistant. He rushes forward, and smashes his shoulder into the Old Dwarf's nose, then he follows that by stabbing his remaining short sword through Boomy's SKULL! Hit AC 28, crit threat confirmed with a 27. 9 damage from crit hit and 2 necrotic = 11 damage to Boomy! So, 13+11 = 24. So your at -4? Roll to stabilize!
Tahni -- AC14/10/14 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor Friday February 11th, 2011 6:56:14 AM "What is going on in there?" Tahni wonders to herself. She can see the others firing bows, but at what? She needs to get closer, but must also look to protect the child.
"Hush now. You're being very brave" she seeks to soothe the lad. Using both hands to support the boy, Tahni will crouch underneath the trip wire and try and get a better view at what is going on in the next room. (Move south to O18. Use both hands to support the boy while crouching underneath the tripwire. It's at 3ft, Tahni stands at just over 4ft, so it should be easy enough)
Continue to ready an action to turn her back to any attack against her (free action - offering a voluntary flank?) in order to protect the child.

Naldin AC18/16/12 CMD17 HP26/26 d20+4=22 ; d6+3=8 ; Friday February 11th, 2011 9:20:05 AM That's not good, Naldin thought as he sees the damage done to Boomy. A quick glance tells Naldin that Kreyton is readying a spear, So Naldin nocks and arrow and readies himself to fire it at the ninja the same time as Kryton's spear, hoping one of the two find their mark.
While he waits for the perfect time to release his arrow, Naldin calls to his other companions, We're going to need some help in here pretty soon, you guys

Devlin is unable to tear his eyes away from the necromancers gaze. His eyes glaze over and his weapons hang limply in his hands.
Hero point used
Boomy HP -4/20 AC 17/17/16 d20+3=16 ; Friday February 11th, 2011 11:06:21 AM
Boomy smiles as his prized trophy slices his opponent's weapon cleanly in half. As fun as this is, I could use a little help if it's not too much trouble! he calls hoping to encourage Brough and Frootloop to hurry up. Suddenly the ninja moves in a blur of motion and darkness overtakes the old monk.

Boomy HP -4/20 AC 17/17/16 Sunday February 13th, 2011 11:43:26 AM
Having stabilized some, Boomy realizes he is in no condition to fight and lays on the ground feining death. The morbid feeling of lying in a pool of his own blood increases as it slowly begins to cool, but fear keeps him from moving until the ninja's back is turned. If it is obvious the ninja is looking the other direction, at his companions, or he moves away from the injured monk, Boomy will drink his potion of CLW. If the ninja moves far away or engages his friends in combat he will also stand up.

Bruagh, knowing things are getting dire, move to gain the attention of not only the old caster, but whatever else is in the room. As he moves near Kreyton, he pulls a red rubber band on his wrist and lets it smack against his skin. As it does Bruagh doubles in height and weight almost instantly, while his belongs does the same.
"You... you are mine! He says pointing to the caster.
Double Move to K,6. Use Lotto Item to cast Enlarge Self as part of a Move Action.
RobC: Bruagh is now size Large, taking up a 10x10ft square. He gains a +2 size bonus to Strength, a -2 size penalty to Dexterity (to a minimum of 1), and a -1 penalty on attack rolls and AC due to his increased size, and has a natural reach of 10 feet. He now also weighs 1,560lbs! (Per the spell: "doubling its height and multiplying its weight by 8") Did the floorboards just creak? :)

Wow, I hope that exam went well... don't worry about us... we'll be here when you get back... just worry about your studies this week.
Tahni runs forward, holding the crying boy in her arms. The cross-like thing seems to be a doll of some sort
Devlin stands with his crossbows pointed but fails his will save and burns a hero point in the process. Yes, his eyes glaze over, and he hears a voice in his head, it says, Doesn't the blood remind you of something.... wonderful? The way it flows.... Would you say its a....
Dealbreaker?
you lose this round's worth of actions to be sure. Make another will save Devlin.
Boomy falls to the ground after being stabbed in the head. Blood spills about him, but his roll of 16 stabilizes him. From what I can tell of the rules on stabilizing and dying. It takes 1 successfull stabilize roll on a DC 14 for you to stop from bleeding to death, but be conscious. Then it takes a second DC 14 constitution check to return to 0 hit points and become conscious. Am I wrong? If not, then roll again DC 14 to wake up. Do this and your next round will be downing that potion.
Kreyton throws a spear, but the nimble Ninja just sidesteps it. This distracts him though as he doesn't see Naldin's arrow! It pegs him right in the side of his torso. The arrow seems to poke out the other side, skewering the skinny being.
He grunts in pain.
Braugh takes this combat to the next level. He snaps his band and becomes large size. The floorboards creek under his massive weight. The armored titan steps to the wall.
The ninja hears the roar of Braugh, but cannot see him
The Ninja sees the attackers approaching and weighs his options in his head real quick. His eyeballs seem to bounce up for a moment.
Then he reaches into his backpack and pulls a vial of blue liquid. Knowledge Alchemy DC 16 to know what it is from a distance Highlight to display spoiler: {Blurr spell. 300gp on the market.} He pops the cork and removes his mask and you can see that his chin is pointy and hairless, so he could very well be a dark-skinned elf, but you can't see his ears under his black hoody.
He then drinks the potion and he glows blue for a second. Then his form seems to blur into a haze, like there is a grease spot on your eyeglasses that remains around him alone.
For his move action, he pulls a WHip from the back of his belt.
He stands at the ready.
Then, the Necromancer in the back moves to the table in the far northeast corner. He slams the woman down on the table and steps over her. His muscles flex as he seems to... stick his hand in the black void that has enveloped the woman's stomach!?!?!?!
Tahni -- AC14/10/14 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor Tuesday February 15th, 2011 10:52:10 PM OOC: DM, you have Bruagh on the wrong side of the wall. Per his previous post: "Double Move to K,6.". So the ninja would have seen him. Also, in Frootloop's absence from posting, can we have him perform Devlin's suggestion - ie: cutting through the wall? Pity the walls weren't thinner, as I like the image of a raging dwarf just bursting through.
Could also be a good way in for Max *nudge nudge*

Hoping the fact he has lowered his crossbows also helps this.
"Why has he stopped? Something isn't right" Tahni notices as she sees Devlin lower his crossbows. Continuing to hold the young boy close to her, she makes haste towards her seemingly stunned colleague (Double move to N10)

Devlin -- 18/14/14 -- DR 1/- -- CMD 15 -- HP 14/20 d20+3=10 ; Wednesday February 16th, 2011 12:05:56 AM
At the word "Dealbreaker" images begin to flash before Devlin's eyes. The panicked screams of humans and Dwarves fill the air, living shadows and dark armored foes slaughter all they find. The pungent smell of ozone and blood clog the nostrils making it hard to breathe. Desperate survivors throw themselves unarmed at the blades of their hated foe. Above it all rises a maniacal laughter drowning out the groans of the wounded. As his breath comes to him in sobs Devlin attempts to shut his eyes and block out the sights but they are still there. His body shudders and tears stream down his face.
Actions: Will save = 10 (probably a fail) OOC: depending on how I do tomorrow more will be revealed.

Naldin sees Devlin...crying? Crying? There's no crying in combat! Naldin thought to himself.
This time he pulls two arrows from his quiver, puts on in his teeth and nocks the other one. Before he lets them fly, he takes a second to punch Devlin in the arm and yell Get back to fighin' man! This is no time to bug out on us!
Just as Naldin was about to fire his first arrow, his target get blurry. Naldin blinked a few times, but it did not help. Like it wasn't bad enough before he thought. So he takes aim at the center of the blurry figure and lets his arrows fly, hoping they find their targets.

Question Do we know what is going on with Frootloop? Is he MIA or did I miss an email?
RobC: Hey Boomy. He's been sent a few emails, but to date, no response. We're hoping everything is ok with him, but for the time being please consider him MIA.
Addison: Boomy, How many hero points do you have stacked up there? I know I awarded the whole group one a while back, and you got one for the zombie-head. But 2 rerolls? That's 2 hero points.

Boomy HP -4/20 AC 17/17/16 d20+6=20 ; Wednesday February 16th, 2011 3:30:42 PM
Calling upon the last reserves of his strength, Boomy pushes away the fog of death and slowly regains consciousness. Slowly he cracks open one eye and sees the feet of the ninja that put the sword through his head, but something is wrong. His eyes can't focus on the ninja. His heart begins to race, but as he regains his senses he realizes that he can focus on everything else. Deciding it best not feign death until he figures out what is going on, the Monk lies still in the pool of blood. As slowly and silently as he can Boomy moves his hand to his belt and brings the healing potion to his lips all the while praying the Ninja is too focused on his companions and the battle at hand to notice him.

Bruagh, sensing things are about as bad as they can get, decides to do something unconventional. Rather than moving tactically across the room to engage the threat, he runs full speed towards caster yelling a battle cry to Domi, in part to terrify his enemy, in part to bring a sense of relief to the young blonde woman, yet most importantly to rally his comrades who could truly use the inspiration.

DM Addison d100=87 ; d20+9=10 ; d20+6=26 ; d20+6=22 ; 3d6=13 ; 3d6=8 ; Thursday February 17th, 2011 7:52:27 PM Tahni runs up to Devlin as the Rogue delves deeper into his subconscious, despite the +2 circumstance bonus that Naldin gives him by trying to make him snap out of it. (Yeah, a 12 fails the will save. And YES, that is exactly where I was heading with that. Please continue, you lose another round of action b/c the fail save)
Naldin tries to wake Devlin, but can't seem to wake him up. Then the Ranger fires two arrows at the Ninja, the second of which plugs him in the opposite hip as the last shot. That's like 14 damage from Naldin. (I rolled the 20% miss for blurryness and got 87... i was borne in 1987!)
Boomy burns through two hero points and manages to regain consciousness. He slowly drags himself through the corpses and downs a potion, healing him for 4hp. You are now at 0HP! Woot! Keep track of your hero point total, I think your out now.
Braugh runs across the bloodied room and almost slips as he shouts his intimidation/rally cry.
The Ninja eyes Braugh, not really knowing what to think. He looks at the necromancer and raises an eyebrow, almost as if to say, "I'm not getting paid enough for this"
Kreyton believes that stopping the Necromancer is a primary concern, so he moves that way.
Max also runs west
Enemie's turn.
The Necromancer sees Braugh and Kreyton approaching fast. His hand is inside the black void that appeared over the woman's stomach.
Then he begins to pull, and screams of terror can be heard exiting the void as he pulls. His elbow comes out of the void, then his wrist, then... something in his hand.
It looks like a skull... of a... Baby? But it's not a baby you would assume such a beautiful woman would have. Its skin is jet black and its eyes are crimson red. Only the head is out right now, but as its face is exposed to the air, it lets loose a terrifying wail
Everyone make a DC 14 Will save or be Shaken. If you are already shaken ( and you should be keeping track of such things), then you become frightened.
The Necromancer looks at the Ninja and flinches a bit, almost threateningly.
The Ninja responds in kind by taking a bag out of his backpack and throws it at Braugh! Missing with a NATURAL 1 on a touch AC attack roll. The bag burst in front of Braugh (Blue bubbles).
Then, in frustration, the Necromancer clinches his left fist in Braugh's direction. Perception DC 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {On his finger is a ring, and on the ring is the head of a horned goat.}
The Necromancer speaks amongst the wailing of the baby-like-creature, "Do not approach me!" his voice is commanding and serious.
Then, a large transparent blue goat-like creature erupts from his ring and charges Braugh! It hits AC 26, confirms crit with 22, and deals a total of 21 damage to Braugh!
The goat smashes Braugh in the face, crunching his nose into oblivion (lucky you didn't lose some Charisma), spewing blood everywhere and all-around sending Braugh's world into a tumble.

Fighting to remain conscious Bruagh charges the necromancer, trying to end him. As his axe slices into the white faced man, Bruagh growls. "By Domi, you'll pay for what you've done!"

Tahni stops in her tracks as a loud wail comes from the next room "What the hell was that?" Clutching the boy tight to her, she feels him shudder. "Keep your eyes closed, lad. Trust that I will keep you safe" she whispers. Devlin looks unsteady, so extending a comforting hand, she tries to help him regain his senses "Focus. Your friends need you now" (Cast Protection from Evil on Devlin. Per the description - he receives another saving throw against any spells or effects that possess or exercise mental control over him. This saving throw is made with a +2 morale bonus, using the same DC as the original effect. In adition, Devlin now also gets a +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves. Arcane Spell Failure: 68. Pass. Whoops, Cleric Spell. Wasn't needed.)
Tahni continues moving forward to get a view into the room, wary of the suspicious area on the floor. (Move to O9, Cast Protection from Evil on Devlin, then continue moving to Q6.)
This is the first time that Tahni has been able to see the contents of the room, and for a moment, she is taken aback. Boomy looks terrible, as does Bruagh. (Perception: 18 (21 if considered well lit). First time in this room). It is then she spots the necromancer holding... something.

The visions increase in intensity Blood pools on the floor mingling with spilled food and drink. The screams are less frequent now. More moans of pain and suffering echo through the hall, and above all else is the laughter. The madness heard in it is infectious, people die laughing. Devlin begins to laugh while the tears fall. With desperate strength an axe is thrown, a sickening crunch is heard. The laughter stops and with it so do the visions Devlin comes too with the calming grace of Domi coursing through him. His sight to the necromancer is blocked by Bruagh, but the assassin still stands over Boomy. With a snarl of rage Devlin fires his crossbows at the lithe figure. Both bolts sink into his targets abdomen. With a smile of satisfaction Devlin reloads.

Hearing the cry of the evil creature brought forth by the Necromancer clearly disturbs Naldin (Will save 9). So much so that it effected his next shots. But even so, Naldin still felt like his best move was to continue to fire his arrows at the ninja attacking his companions.
As best he could, he pulls two more arrows and lets them fly again towards his blurry foe.

Covered in blood and having basically brought himself back from the grave, Boomy is at the point where nothing can shake him. (Save =27, natural 20!). As stealthfully as he can, the wisened monk drinks his last potion of CLW and stands shakely back up. Tahni, I don't mean to trouble ya, but do ya think ya could get your god to heal me a little?

Bruagh Stormbringer AC 17/10/15 -- DR 2/- -- CMD 19 -- HP 8/28 -- Enlarged Monday February 21st, 2011 1:51:48 PM
No door Max, you have to either smash the wall in, or walk around, avoiding the trip wire.
Max Silverhammer -- AC18/11/17 -- CMD 14 -- HP 13/13 Monday February 21st, 2011 2:23:01 PM
What's the wall made out of? I can spend 20 minutes smashing the wall, or I can walk around, trip the wire, and get on with it.
Devlin -- 18/14/14 -- DR 1/- -- CMD 15 -- HP 14/20 Monday February 21st, 2011 5:04:09 PM
ooc: one of the dm posts said that it was boards. Not sure what's behind the boards.
DM Addison Monday February 21st, 2011 6:27:14 PM
Yeah, the wall looks like straight up wood paneling. Nothing special, but still a wall.
Go ahead and attack it and I'll look up the rules for damaging thickness of objects and go from there. You can also look up the rules and decide if your character stands a good chance of busting through or not.
Tahni -- AC14/10/14 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor Monday February 21st, 2011 7:26:19 PM OOC: Chance to use Frootloops head as a battering ram?
Bruagh Stormbringer AC 17/10/15 -- DR 2/- -- CMD 19 -- HP 8/28 -- Enlarged Monday February 21st, 2011 9:20:33 PM
Bruagh hopes to remain conscious enough to remove the threat the caster represents.
DM Addison Monday February 21st, 2011 11:18:46 PM Braugh shouts his promise to end this fight and charges the White-Faced Necromancer. His axe is swift as it swipes the mans left arm, sending blood to the far side of the room.
Tahni casts Prot from Evil on Devlin and they can both feel the enchantment break. Its like Devlin's brain suddenly refocused and the blood and maddening laughter in his mind cease.
Fueled with new purpose, Devlin fires a volley of bolts that skewer the Ninja.
The dark-skinned elf grunts loudly in pain as the bolts add to Naldin's arrows in his sternum. His left arm seems to go limp from the blood loss.
It is fortunate that Naldin's next arrows miss the Ninja.
Boomy stands up, downs another potion, and feels the resolve that this fight is not lost.
Kreyton approaches the Necromancer next to Braugh.
Enemy's turn
The Ninja pauses for a second and assesses his situation. He can feel the arrows coming from his right, he sees Boomy rise ready to fight, and he sees his employer getting overrun.
But he knows that your group is hurt too. Sense motive DC 15 Highlight to display spoiler: { You can tell he is at an indecision on what to do.}
Then, like lightning, his mind clicks to its purpose. He runs to the window to the south at a dead sprint. As he runs he pulls a small tablet out of his pocket.
A spark ignites from the tablet and there is a loud crash
Devlin, Tahni, and Naldin roll a DC 15 Reflex save or bad things will happen as the FLOOR FALLS FROM BENEATH YOUR FEET!
Then, as the world tumbles around the three dwarves, the ninja reaches the window, and looks down at the drop below. He is perched on the window ledge at the end of this round.
Necromancer takes a step back and rips the child from the black void. At the same time, he flings his hand and the woman's limp, unconscious frame flies at Braugh.
Then, with the woman between him and Braugh, he runs backwards and jumps off the table. In one arm he has a screaming coal-skin red-eyed demon baby that sends shivers down your spine.
His last action is to lift his hand and a yellow glow envelops it....
(OOC: Rob C, in reply to your request for a loot list from the last battle. My answer is no. You get what you claimed from searching them at the time. Boomy got his guirisame, some people got armor and shields. And when you guys searched the Duergar's pockets, I'm sure I mentioned some random stuff yall found.)
Tahni -- AC14/10/14 -- CMD 10 -- HP 14/17 -- Familiar: Daya -- Mage Armor d20+1=17 ; d20+4=18 ; d100=4 ; d100=13 ; Tuesday February 22nd, 2011 12:18:16 AM OOC: DM, Tahni was at Q6 - still in the area of effect of the ninja's "pellet", and - perhaps unfortunately - closer to him.
Tahni is uncharacteristically prepared for the ninja's action (Reflex Save: 17, with only a +1 bonus!) and manages to step away from the plummeting floor. This unfortunately separates her from the party, and leaves her face-to-face with the ninja.
Cradling the boy close to her, Tahni tries to reason with the elf in black while making her way around the outskirts of the hole in the floor, edging closer to Boomy "Stop this madness now! You are more than outnumbered and enough blood has been shed this day. There is a window behind you. If you value your life you will leave through it now". (Diplomacy: 18. Move to M5)
Doubting the ninja will take her suggestion, Tahni prepares for his next attack. (Ready an action to cast Mage Hand on any object the ninja throws in her direction. Arcane Spell %: 4. Fail. Use Hero Point to Reroll: 13. Still fail!)

Devlin lunges forward as the floor drops out from under him. Quickly coming to his feet he spits out splinters and brings his weapons to bear on the fleeing ninja. His shots fly wild sticking into the window frame. Cursing his luck he shouts Run now and you run for the rest of your life dog. To Tahni he says He's not worth your words lass

Bruagh moves his large form around the table and presses the attack on the necromancer.
