DM Ian - Magic Items, Experience Points, and Ol' Man Cedric Friday January 10th, 2014 3:11:44 AM With a full night's rest, a character gains HP equal to their character level, so everyone is healed for another 2HP by the morning. Each character gains 420EXP from the last two scenes -- keep in mind you're only level two and it has to be divided in eight! And a hero point is awarded to Cameron for risking his life to save Sergeant Helmbane during the combat!
William is the first to wake up, and he quickly strikes up conversation with Hope, who is already downstairs. "My magic... is magic?" she almost asks. "I dunno, I've just sort of always been able to do it. Dad says Mom could do stuff like that too. The only things I can do are big lights and sounds, on top of healing. These things don't seem very interested by those kinda things."

Linden heals his allies before going to bed. Upon waking up, he prays for his spells and eats a hearty breakfast among the townsfolk in the common room.
Bliss wanders into the back, looking for something to eat. While there are no berries, the brother offers him some leftover bread and meat from the night before going to sleep. He quickly tracks down the magical items they received from the undead, hoping to identify them. The necklace has an aura of evocation and is identified as a Necklace of Fireball Type I. The potions both carry conjuration auras and are identified as Cure Moderate Wounds (2d8+3). The feather remains a mystery, although it has a strong aura of conjuration.
Prudence goes out to find Credric and finds herself faced with a room full of mostly asleep strangers. The hunt for the madman will have to wait another day. There is a heap of flour bags that Bliss has already settled down on for the night which the sorcerer is perfectly content with.
Cameron orders some breakfast, which is cooked up quickly by the sleepy looking cook from the previous night. Soon, the one known as Old Man Cedric arrives by ringing the bell attached to the string outside and having someone left him in. The half-elf is getting on in his days, with most of his hair giving way to a soft, pink scalp while wild, half-blind eyes peer at your from beneath two wild eyebrows. Clearly, this man has seen a lot. As Cameron approaches him, he lets out a cackle. "I was wonderin' when you'd finally come talk to me."See below for more...
Tinker jokes with Guy the guard, who smiles at the dwarf. He spends the rest of the shift in a good mood, chatting with the rogue about life in Cheerful Stay. The next morning, he approaches Trimmack and asks where the item might be and its connection with the goings-on here. "We've been hired to figure out where it is. Only intel we got was that it was stolen from around here. As for the connection, well, I wouldn't work on that assumption. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised, either. Magic's tricky like that."
With Nikolai bolstering his courage as well, Guy is positively beaming by the time he leaves to go home at the end of the night. "Thank you both... I'm gonna rethink joinin' the Fist. Might make my family proud." He puffs out his chest and strides off into the night, axe held aloft.
Carver gets downstairs before the Sergeants, speaking to his fist about what he believes to be their true mission.
As Cameron speaks with the old man, a space begins to clear around them. Clearly, no one wants to be near Cedric when he begins ranting. (Anyone who wishes can be part of this conversation -- they are in the common room, and Cedric speaks quite loudly.)
"Yes, yes, I knows what's causin' this awful mess," the half-elf sighs. He seems to whistle slightly when pronouncing his s, making his whole speech rather difficult to follow. "Yes'm, them folks came through just a few weeks ago, righ' before this alls goin' down, I tell you what. A month, most, most. Only five of 'ems, but ol' Cedric noticed them, 'e did. Three o' them round-ears, one o' the shorter kinds, and a big brute uva half-blood, yes'm. Nothin' t'identify, nothin' at all, wanted to be real careful, if you ask me. Only stayed one night, 'n then they left."
The seemingly crazy old man leans in close to the halfling, bringing his voice down to barely a whisper. "I'm only tellin' yas this cuz ya seem so nice 'n such. They's was a strange bunch, not that ol' Cedric is one t' discriminate. No, but they was prayin', I can tells ya that much, prayin' before ev'ry meal, they was. Almost seemed like a ritual, y'ask me. And they was talkin' about somethin' real important, but they wouldn't say what it was." With that, the old man lets out a huge laugh, throwing his head back and devolving into a coughing fit. "But I'm just an old coot, what do I know, aye?"

Chomping on a carrot, Linden moves over to listen to the old man. "Can you discribe the prayers they did? Any motions? Words? Anything?"

knowledge religion 13 Its a long shot, but Cameron thinks back on what he knows of religion and which ones might pray at those kinds of times. Nothing comes to mind though. " I've learned alot of what I know from 'old coots', so maybe you know alot more than people give you credit for. You sure can tell the character of a person it seems. Did any of them have a weighty pack maybe, or some luggage they never left alone? We happen to be here looking for some 'shifty' folks that took something the didn't own. These might be those shifty folks. If you remember anything else be sure to tell me or any other member of our group here, okay?"
Diplomacy 27
Returning to his fistmates, Cameron asks," Did anyone else say anything to any of you about these travelers? Five would be a good number for a magical item theft job. Not too many to blab about it and enough muscle and finesse to pull it off. Since we don't know what the book we are looking for is about it COULD be them messing around with something they don't fully understand that caused this undead mess. Do the undead either come from one central location or loiter around in any one location that we have learned about? If they do the item might be there, either with the theirve alive and using it or dead around it. That would be something worth checking out." " Otherwise, we are hopelessly behind in finding these guys if they were indeed the theives. I mean I CAN track, but a month worth of weather and an undead horde running amok over their trail I don't think I could track them through that."
Prudence Gundle [AC 18; HP 21/21] [Mage Armor] (Kathy) d20+6=16 ; Friday January 10th, 2014 6:35:00 PM
Since Bliss wasn't able to tell what the feather might be, Pru casts her own Detect Magic spell and gives it a go. She isn't any better than Bliss, however, at identifying it [Spellcraft 16]. "Maybe William will have better luck," she says. "We'll ask him later."
In the common room, Pru listens to Cedric's tale, and turns it over in her mind. "So they came through, and they took something," she says, trying to grasp everything that's going on. "Well, probably took something. Are we sure it's a book? Maybe the presence of the book kept the dead from walking, and now that it's gone...." she shakes her head. "We still don't have much to go on."
AC 15, T13, F12, CMD 15(19); HP 15/23 "Tinker" (SteveK) Friday January 10th, 2014 8:33:22 PM
Tinker can only agree with Sergeant Trimmack that magic is tricksy. These are good folks, and maybe being too coy don't get the answers. So Tinker goes to find his guard-mate Guy.
Tinker isn't diplomatic, so he just comes right out. "We're hired to find a stolen magic item from around these parts. Who might know something about that?" He then dutifully reports his conversation to the others.
Nikolai (JonathanT) AC 16 Tch 16 Ffted 13 HP 23/23 CMD 18/20(Grapple) Saturday January 11th, 2014 12:14:51 AM
Nikolai reports to his friends that apparently the undead linger around the graveyard when not wandering around. "Unless our Sergeants have something else better for us to do today, we should start there. It is as good a place to start looking for the book as any other."
Nikolai accepts whatever breakfast the cook can cook up and when the sergeants arrive, he makes the proposition to start looking around the graveyard.
After Old Man Cedric is finished, Nikolai asks the half-elf which way did the five go when they left.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC21, HP16 of 16) Saturday January 11th, 2014 7:22:48 AM
Bliss wakes for the day to find that everyone else is already up and at 'em!
"Mookie," he complains, "why didn't you wake me up?"
The raven shrugs. "You needed rest."
"Well come on!" Bliss gets dressed and casts Reduce Person. He seems about to run off. "There's stuff to do!"
"Hold your centaurs, kid," says Mookie calmly. "What about your morning quiet time?"
Bliss' face falls. "Oh yeah."
The halfling finds a quiet place to sit and meditate for an hour to get back spells.

The necklace allows us to create a destructive fireball, and the town and mine have plenty of lamp. Lamps burn oil. If a fair amount of that oil were left at the graveyard and a fireball were set off, we could look for these robbers without needing to watch out for pesky undead all the time." Cameron hopes that the practical face he has put on dealing with the undead makes it more suitable to his sergeants. He doesn't like leaving the town to it's fate, but if they have to do so to finish the job, he will, he just won't like it.
William the Courageous (Ken) AC 14/18 (w/ Mag Amr), hp 12/12 d20+9=16 ; d20+9=20 ; Saturday January 11th, 2014 2:57:43 PM
William considers Hopes words, and asks her a few more questions about what she saw and used vs. the denizens... (Know Arc = 16)... Finally he replies, "Yes, that sounds like your magic didn't work against undead, since they aren't affected usually by illusory magic... Mine's more of the conjuration type and hopefully I'll have more luck..."
He also takes a look at the feather and tries to discern what it might be... Since he's a conjurer specialist, it shouldn't be very hard to figure out what it does.... (Spellcraft = 20)...
Finally, he listens to the old man ranting and adds, "Yes, I think trying the graveyard might be a good step to start with, but during the daylight would be best for a reconnaissance mission.. I don't want to go there at night until we're better prepared with as much information as possible..."
Nikolai (JonathanT) AC 16 Tch 16 Ffted 13 HP 23/23 CMD 18/20(Grapple) Sunday January 12th, 2014 4:35:38 PM
Nikolai asks Hope, "Where is the graveyard? We heard that those undead sometimes linger there. We'd like to investigate the place and maybe see if there are any tracks that lead to who is doing this."
Carver AC 16, AC 18/ shield, CMB 6, CMD 16, HP 25/25 (10) (John C) Sunday January 12th, 2014 5:00:46 PM "Oil might not be that handy, but some of the drink here might burn nicely enough to do the job. Before we do too much planning, the Sargents will want to be in on this. We do follow their lead, this isn't like the trials, where we decide how to do things. We may supply ideas, or they might just tell us just how we will be doing this. So, lets get them before our thoughts get wishes get ahead of our abilities." With that said, Carver gets the Sargents and brings them over to the group.
AC 19 w/shield (Magic Armor), TAC 11, FFAC 15, (CMD 13,CMB 2), HPS 24/24 Linden (Jay B) Sunday January 12th, 2014 6:21:19 PM
Linden thinks the recon in the morning would be a great idea. "How many entrances are there to the graveyard? We don't want anything bogus fleeing without knowing where it might go."
"I don't know tracking, but I think I remember someone saying at school that, when tracking, send in the most experienced tracker first and don't take a large group initially. It would ruin the best possible outcome."

OOC Cameron was saying that FOR the Sergeants. They are going to go all 'duty' and 'contract' on us if we just try to kill the undead. The whole ploy of maybe finding the item or at least tracks to follow after the undead are gone was so they would allow us to do it.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC21, HP16 of 16) Sunday January 12th, 2014 10:50:56 PM
Bliss wanders in and listens quietly at first.
Then he throws in his $0.02.
"Well, wowsy, of course the item we want is in the graveyard and all the undead are guarding it. Of course. And our job is to destroy the undead and take back the item. Easy peasy!"
DM Ian - What Was That Noise? Monday January 13th, 2014 2:13:32 AM Linden asks for a description of the prayers. Cedric replies, "Ach, who can tell the diff'rence these days? Prolly some wishy-washy God promisin' 'em somethin' false, aye?"
Cameron tries to recall any specific rituals regarding prays before meal times, but there are so many people that do this, it would be difficult to tell. "I dunno about no luggage, but they was always armoured, head ta toe."
Prudence gives identifying the feather a shot, but falls short of the goal, much like her allies. After hearing the old man's ranting, it appears they do not have much evidence to go on.
Tinker seeks out his new friend, Guy, who is already in Haggard's getting himself some breakfast. His trust axe is leaning against the table as the rogue approaches and asks about the magic item. "Stolen magic item?" The young man's face seems blank. "Uhh... I guess Boone might know about it. He's the local cleric, but he doesn't leave the church much these days. Other than that, I think Hope is the only other spellslinger we got."
Nikolai tells his friends that the zombies seem to linger by the graveyard, according to Guy's reports. When he asks Cedric which way these people went, he replied, "Last I saw, they was eyeballin' the old road east. Don't lead anywhere, 'cept an old church a few miles out."
Bliss has his usual morning routine of arguing with Mookie, reducing himself, and preparing his spells.
William has a look at the feather, but still cannot identify it. He agrees that the graveyard might be the best course of action.
Carver cautions the group that the sergeants will likely want some input into their plans, bringing them over to their table in the common room.
Trimmack and Helmbane listen to your opinions and weigh the options for a moment. Trimmack pulls out a small pad of paper and jots a few things down, while Helmbane simply stares forward with his arms crossed. It is the dwarf that speaks first. "Well, the graveyard does seem like a good place -- assuming these undead are connected with the thing we're lookin' for. That's an awfully big assumption we're workin' on. Which isn't to say it might be wrong, just that we don't have much to back it up. I've asked around, and the graveyard is on the northern edge of the town. Apparently, that part's been all but abandoned since this all started."
At this point, Trimmack speaks up. "I'm pretty interested in these armoured folk that came through. If the zombies are connected, you can bet there's some religious aspect involved. I've seen necromancy before, and it ain't pretty."
"Well that may be true," Helmbane interjects. "But the undead are a threat no matter what. We should take care of 'em first before moving on with the mission."
"We move on with the mission no matter what," Trimack urges. "That's what we're here to do."
As the two sergeants fall into bickering, you think you might hear something off in the distance...

Intimidate 5 ( he tries to throw the authority of a drill instructor into his words, but they instead come out as the shriek of a frightened child)
" I'm headed for the roof where I can see what's going on. From there I'll either shoot or head down the outside, just get that door barred or whatever is coming will be in here with us. THAT won't be pretty." He then heads for the stairs at top speed to get above whatever the ruckus is and gain a clear field of fire.

"Folks, let's get everybody back away from the door, all right? It's going to be just fine; we can handle this." I hope she adds inwardly.

Carver is busy stuffing a sausage link into his mouth when some of the others exclaim that there is some sort of attack going on. He grabs a couple more as he unhooks his shield from it's tie own. After shoving them in to be chewed, he pulls his lance, he knows they are inside, but if they need the door charged, he'll want that ready. He hangs back towards the far end of the inn, giving him room to get up a head of steam for a charge.

Perception +9 = 16 A little bit on edge, any unusual noise puts Nikolai into defensive mode and takes the other's words for it that what he heard can't be good. "Pru, got one of those magical armor spells to spare again?" he asks. Then he yells into the kitchen to secure any back doors. If there are any windows on the first floor, he peeks through any barriers (I'm sure they are boarded up), to see what he can in the direction of the sounds.

"I hate to split up, but should some of us go guard the horses? Maybe we can distract whatever is coming to head for the horses, then an attack from the Inn can outflank them," he suggests the tactic to his sergeants.

Tinker's head snaps up as the two halflings go shouting and sprinting. The shouts sounded a long ways off to the rogue, but he's learned to trust Halfling ears! Looking quickly, everyone else is getting ready, but no one has gone for the door. So the dwarf sprints to the tavern entrance.
Jamming his foot against the bottom like a fleshy doorjam, Tinker reaches up and creaks it just enough to look out a crack. He'll relay what he sees and try to be ready to open the door for anyone fleeing inside or hold the door shut until the villagers can slide the bar shut.

DM Ian - What Was That Noise? d20+7=13 ; d20+11=13 ; d20+4=5 ; Tuesday January 14th, 2014 2:05:51 AM Cameron is the first to react, shouting to bar the door as he heads to the roof. It takes a couple of minutes for the halfling to scramble upstairs and up the ladder, forcing the trapdoor open on the roof. See below for more...
Bliss hears something outside as well, following his ally up to the roof. See below for more...
Linden wants to make sure that no one is outside. Unfortunately, there is no way to see outside except for the small slot that opens on the front door. From the small angle it provides, you can see nothing outside.
Prudence cannot hear anything, but trusts the others enough. She urges everyone away from the door, an order with which everyone quickly complies. Someone calls out, "What's happening? amid other various chatter in the room.
Carver readies a charge for the door if the Fist needs to exit.
Nikolai asks for another casting of Mage Armour. Unfortunately, there is no way to see outside except for the small slot that opens on the front door. From the small angle it provides, you can see nothing outside.
William casts a spell on himself, following the others up to the roof. (It is daytime now, you no longer need darkvision.)
Tinker takes the risk of peeking out the front door, but as he opens it up, he sees nothing. However, the screams are much clearer now -- they seem to be rather far off in the distance.
Up on the rooftop, Cameron, Bliss, and William look out over the small village. Despite the fact that the Inn is one of the tallest buildings in Cheerful Stay, they cannot seem to make out anything from their vantage point. The screams are much clearer now, but you can say with confidence that they are not from the immediate area.
Helmbane pushes his way out the front door, pointing down the road to the right. "Fist, you scout out that way. Trimmack and I will take this direction. Loop around the outside road and meet on the other side, that's an order!" The dwarf runs off, his human counterpart quickly catching up after crying out, "You heard him, get going!"

Everyone dashes out of Haggard's Inn as the sergeants hustle off in the other direction with the intention of meeting somewhere in the middle. As the Fist ploughs through the streets of Cheerful Stay, the screaming becomes louder until they fall upon the scene of the violence. The sight of civilians attempting to fight off horrible creatures unsuccessfully greets your eyes as you turn a corner. Disembodied hands litter the street, grasping at ankles and crawling up arms to reach the throat. Other pale corpses stalk the street, sharp teeth jutting out of their twisted mouths. Their heads whip around as the Fist comes into view.
But the trip there is grueling! Adrenaline pumped, feet pounding against the ground, the Fist can easily tire themselves out before reaching the battle Everyone must succeed on a DC 13 Fortitude Save or be staggered for this round!

Did my shot with a readied missile weapon hit? Damage posted last round, copied here for ease of use. Attack 16 (if point blank) Damage 8 (if point blank) Any of the 3 closest targets is within Point Blank range. The Pale Corpse on #2 would probably be the most noticeable and therefor most likely target.

OOC: Save vs staggered is a 21, woot, so question of having to roll or not is moot for Bliss. Also OOC: Bliss's Reduce lasts 10 rounds. How many rounds does he have left on his current spell?
Up in the sky, Bliss sees his friends hurrying toward the commotion. "That way, Mookie!" he says.
Soon, it is clear that there is a fight, and Mookie caws in alarm. "Get off get off get off! I'm not in this fight! I'm just an RP companion!"
"What's RP mean?"
"I'm a Retired Person! You fight your own fights, kid!"
"Okay, okay," says Bliss, drawing his crossbow and hopping off his faithful steed.
If Bliss lands on a roof, say D-3 or I-3 ...
Bliss, using the roof edge for cover, snipes at the enemies below. He shoots and then ducks back under cover.
He shoots at the disembodied hand in space 11-3. He takes a -4 shooting into melee. He hits AC21 for 3 damage. Then he ducks back out of sight. Stealth 15.
OOC: If Bliss spell is about to expire, he'll recast it instead of firing. Ley Line check 17 is OK.
If Bliss lands in a green area, say E-3, then ...
Bliss pulls out his basket (a move action), drops it in front of him (free action) -- it enlarges when it leaves his grasp -- and Bliss hides behind it (move action). His Stealth check (using the roll above, but not sniping so at +10 more) is 25.

Pru is so intently focused on keeping up with the rest of her Fist that she doesn't realize how dangerously fatigued she's getting. She arrives at the battle weak-kneed and gasping for air. [Fort save 8, Staggered.]
Luckily, she doesn't need to move any farther. She drops her weapons where she stands (let's say E-1) and points a finger at one of the crawling hands. A bolt of flame leaps out, singeing the dead flesh. "Run!" she tells the townsperson.
[Elemental Ray at the disembodied hand at I-5. Hit Touch AC 15 for 8 damage.]

Tinker is winded by the time the group finds the attacking undead and still attacking pieces thereof. He leans momentarily on the side of a building to steady his shot at the nearest disembodied hand, hoping that his breathing doesn't mess his shot.
He looks around for any other undead or living people in the area. Maybe they got up on the walls or roof?

William continues running with the rest of the group, trying to keep up (Fort =14). He's able to do so but is shocked by the scene of carnage before him... He sees Prudence slow down, and grabs her by the arm, trying to keep her going and steady on her feet... "Let me give you a hand Pru, and try not to fall!"...
It looks like D1 is open (or farthest spot away from the enemy), so he'll stop there, peer at the mass of undead and launch an acid dart at DH@I5 (if it's still up) or the nearest, most injured enemy... Touch attack = Hit AC 22 for 7 acid dmg...

Nikolai paces himself as they rush towards the shouting and arrives at the place in good shape. What he sees in front of him is horrid but he steels himself. At least he was better prepared this time.
OOC: strating from square G3, if DH at I5 is still up he moves to H5 to attack it. If that DH is down, he moves to H7, next to Carver and attacks PC at G8 if still up. If PC at G8 is down, he instead ends up at F8 (in front of Carver) and attacks DH at F9.

DM Ian - When There's No More Room... Round 2 d20+5=13 ; d20+5=22 ; d20+5=7 ; d20+3=14 ; Thursday January 16th, 2014 1:57:11 AM Cameron is the first on the scene, firing a shot at one of the rotting hands and missing by only a few inches.
Bliss lands on the roof, firing off a quick shot for some damage. (I assume you mean the hand in E-11 since 11-3 isn't a coordinate.)
Prudence, despite being quite out of breath, raises her hand and lets a bolt of fire scorch the nearest hand!
Linden charges in to face the undead, but finds himself too winded to complete the task.
Carver moves in, but he is slightly blocked by the other centaur in the small road. Luckily, he reaches past his ally to strike a solid blow on the pale, toothy corpse!
Tinker arrives, also out of breath, but still manages to take a shot at the nearby creature. Unfortunately, it misses only by a small amount. In the immediate area, there do not appear to be any other civilians or undead.
William arrives just in time to finish off the already-scorched hand attacked the nearest civilian, a young woman clutching what appears to be a large kitchen knife.
Nikolai rushes in, moving in front of his ally to take a swing at the nearest enemy. The blow lands, and the hand writhes around on the ground in what you can assume is pain.
With nothing threatening her, the first civilian makes her escape, running off past the Fist back towards Haggard's Inn.
DH2 retaliates against the monk Nikolai by launching itself into the air and clawing at this throat! Luckily for the half-elf, it flies past his head, landing back on the ground for another attack.
The other two hands scramble up quickly, both launching themselves in to attack! Linden is their targets this time. They miss! (Attack: 7)
PC2 decides to stick to a simple target, tearing into the flesh of the civilian, an older man who seemed to have trouble defending himself. He falls to the ground, bleeding from a wound in his neck, and the corpse turns its attention towards the Fist.

William sees the first 3 enemies enter melee, and he's not comfortable with the possibility of hitting one of his fistmates... So he changes targets, moves to F5 to improve his range, aims at PC2 and lets fly with another acid arrow...

Bliss shoots at PC2, the one not in melee. That makes it easier to get a bead on him. He hits AC14 for 4 damage, then ducks back under cover. Stealth 12 (after the -10 for sniping penalty).

(OOC: How much was recently given out this last time... last month I believe? I failed to enter onto my character sheet.)
Linden looks to the old man who has just fallen, at a glance, he attempts to assess the damage. (Heal check 28... woot?!) Linden will attempt to save the man's life. (Will use the Rebuke Death domain power, if he is below 0 hps, and and reaches out to heal him for 4 hps... yes, I know if NPCs go to zero they generally die, but I had to try.)

William moves forward, splashing acid on the nearest corpse for a small amount of damage. (The critical did not confirm.)
Bliss lines up a shot and strikes true as the corpse cries out in pain. It may have seen the hafling, for all the good it will do it.
Prudence moves forward, fighting through her exhaustion to just miss with her elemental ray.
Carver skewers the nearby hand, resulting in his lance being decorated with a twitching, rotting hand.
Nikolai stomps down on the hand, dealing his damage, but it grabs onto his boot as he pulls his leg up and begins to crawl up his calf!
Linden pushes past the hands on the ground to bring the old man back from the brink of death. The cleric sees no change in the corpse in his hands... until he suddenly takes a breath, coughing up what little blood is left in his throat. While he is not conscious, he is certainly not dead. (Normally I would ask for acrobatics checks to move past the hands, but considering their abysmal CMD and your size bonus, you pass without effort.)
DH2 crawls up Nikolai's leg, up to his throat and grasping it tightly! (Attack: 20 -- Damage: 2 -- Grapple Check: 13) Luckily, the monk is able to tear the rotting hand off of his neck before it can get a solid grip.
DH3 charges towards Cameron... but at the last second, it veers off and begins scampering up the nearby building! Bliss sees a disembodied, rotting hand flop down on the roof in front of him!
PC2, displeased that its kill was brought back to life, steps towards [b]Linden[b] to exact its revenge! (Attacks: 15, 8) Fortunately, both of its gnarled claws miss.

OOC Cool, thanks on the arrow. Civilian 2, are they standing there looking pretty for a reason? They have had a clear line of retreat for a round, unless they are attacking and missing. That would be brave, but dumb on their part. We are allies and thus they can pass through our squares when they move..
IC Cameron takes a shot as the hand charges him. ( I want to shoot DH 3, but am not sure if it is visible in it's final spot. If it isn't then DH2 is the target, both are in PB range) Attack .hits AC 17 for 7 damage

ooc: Tinker's point of view of recent events to sum up for DM Ezra. :-) Other Players feel free to have a different point of view. ..............
Tinker takes the time to think back on how the Double Fist came to be in this predicament. Was it only a few weeks ago that they graduated as Honor Fist and were selected to head a new experimental Double-Fist for special projects? It was only a few days ago the DblFist quietly helped the Quartermaster with the rat problem. Only a couple days ago that they got their assignment to recover a stolen magic item.
Just last night they were attacked in camp by zombies and Sergeant Helmbane was nearly killed. In the wee hours of darkness, they arrived at the village and saw everyone crammed into the inn ready for a seige.
Only minutes ago, they split up from their Sergeants (Trimmack and Helmsbane), to double flank the sound of villagers' screams. And only seconds ago, they ran up, breathless, to spy three villagers being attacked by undead and parts of undead and sprang into action!
Wow!, thinks Tinker, a whole lot has happened in a couple of weeks!
Prudence Gundle (Kathy) [AC 18; HP 21/21] [Mage Armor] Tuesday January 21st, 2014 7:37:50 PM
Pru glances around, wondering how a nice farm girl from a decent family came to find herself in the Mailed Fist, fighting undead in the dead of night. It's probably best not to dwell on it, she thinks.
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC17, HP16 of 16) Tuesday January 21st, 2014 8:52:59 PM
Fighting dead things makes Bliss remember more than he might like, actually. He thinks about when he was a baby harpy, adopted by a liontaur adventurer, kidnapped by a druid villain, and lost in a torn bag of holding. He floated in the shadows between the worlds for a while. Then he was a dead thing in the shadows between the worlds for a while.
"Was I like these things when I was dead?" Bliss wonders. "Usually dead souls get pulled by Woldsblood to Lord Gargul, that's what Aunt Priss said. But there was no Woldsblood in the shadows between the worlds. I don't remember being dead exactly. But it was lonely for a long long time."
The shadow-touched halfling pauses in the moment. His bolt has left his bah, there it is in midair aimed at a dead thing. Would he have wanted someone to shoot a bolt at him when he was dead? When he was dead, if he had met some living people, would he have hated them? Maybe these dead things are just lonely, like he was.
Bliss is just glad that his mom saved him from the shadows. Even though it did get her in trouble with Lord Gargul. Maybe he can make up for that some day.
Nikolai (JonathanT) AC 20 Tch 20 Ffted 17 HP 21/23 CMD 18/20(Grapple) Tuesday January 21st, 2014 10:12:41 PM
Nikolai remembers spending so many nights sitting, listening to his father tells stories of bravery and gallantry from his youth as a Mailed Fist Cavalry Officer, Wolf Regiment. He had dreams of charging hords of evil doers, mounted on a magestic horse and clad in shining armor, like his father.
But the saddle didn't take to him very well. However, he was quick with his hands and feet, and now he is living out his own stories, being written at each passing moment. Even though stomping out disembodied hands didn't seem as glorious as a horseback charge with lance, everyone has his own beginning.
Three years of training prepared them for this fight, but it did not prepare them for their ethical dilemma. Their orders were to find the stolen magic item, recover it and return it with haste. It did not include risking their lives to save the village from the undead and perhaps causing the failure of their mission!
Somehow they needed to weave finding the magic item and saving the village into one. That, their training did not prepare them for.

Carver yells at the child to leave, but in doing so causes himself to miss.
Prudence fires another ray, but cannot seem to find the target. The hands are skittish and quick.
Linden channels energy to damage the undead and heal his allies.
Tinker prepares himself for any other undead that may appear in the area.
Nikolai succeeds in draining what little life was left from the crawling hand.
William calls for his friend to get the old man, but is distracted when he fires at the remaining corpse.
Bliss steps back and nails the hand, but does not succeed in destroying it.
PC2 goes to bite at the centaur Linden and succeeds! As it does so, the cleric feels a cold sensation begin to sweep through his body, not unlike the mushroom tea he is so fond of... (Attack: 20 -- Damage: 6 -- Linden must make a DC 13 Fort save or be paralyzed for 2 rounds! Linden must then make a SECOND DC 13 Fort save or suffer 3 Con and 2 Dex damage!
A paralyzed creature is rooted to the spot, frozen and helpless.
DH3 skitters towards Bliss, launching itself at his throat and missing fabulously. (Attack: 13)

The cleric strikes out with his star. AC 12 likely missing, 3 damage. He makes sure to stay a target so that the others can dispatch it. He is a dismal melee fighter.

Until he sees the attack on linden, Cameron was dumbfounded by the civilians staying here, now he undersstands. " They are paralyzed, like Sergeant Helmbane was last night. Just put that corpse down and we can wait for them to recover, or take them back to the Inn. Where are the Sergeants, anyone see them?" Perception 21 Attack 13 damage 7 While looking for the sergeants, and more undead, Cameron fires at the hand up near Bliss again with his bow.

Tinker looks about and sees there is no need for his crossbow, but Linden may need some help more than Carver. Dropping his crossbow, the dwarven rogue trots to where the 2 centaurs are fighting the pale corpse, bringing his Dwarven Urgosh about as he does so.

DM Ian - When There's No More Room... Thursday January 23rd, 2014 2:57:53 AM Linden manages to keep himself moving, but suddenly feels sluggish and a bit sick.
Cameron realizes why the civilians have been rooted in place, but is too distracted to hit his target. He does not see the sergeants in the immediate area.
Prudence steps back to get a better angle and manages to find her target this time, scorching the hand to a pile of ash.
Carver yells for his ally to stands aside...
...and William acquiesces. The centaur gallops forward, ramming his weapon through the creature's chest and letting it drop to the ground, limp and quite dead.
Tinker moves forward to defend his ally, but quickly realizes that the fight is over.
Bliss steps back to fire a shot, but his sorceress friend has already killed it. The halfling gets to keep his ammo.
Nikolai is ready for more action, but finds himself without any action to be had.
The Fist is left staring at a small child, unable to move, and a slowly stirring old man. "Thank you, thank you," he mutters to Linden as the cleric helps him up. "Please, let me return the favour." He places his hand on the centaur's chest and he can feel the illness seep from his body and flow into the old man's hand. He smiles up at Linden and nods before offering to take the child back to Haggard's Inn. (I misread the power of that creature, so deus ex machina, poof, it's gone!)

With combat over, Bliss calls to Mookie, refreshes the Reduce in himself and the Enlarge on Mookie, and mounts up.
He also reloads his bah -- with a new five-bolt clip. After this, all he has is a four-bolt clip. Nine bolts all told for the entire adventure. Either he'll have to buy more, make more, or resort to his slingshot.
He listens and looks around, after hearing what William says -- he hears no more (Perception 14), but figures he should look around. He flies southward, keeping low over the rooftops and hiding among the eaves and chimneys.

Cameron moves slower than his companions, and takes his time. He hums a little tunes and detects magic. He takes the time to scan the dead monsters before following along. They do not know if any of these monsters have the item they are looking for. For all they know, one of the monsters might be the actual thief and been killed and animated and still have the item that is their goal. He examines the corpses as well. Detect magic ( if I step back a couple of squares I think I can catch all the fallen monsters in the range and arc of the spell) Perception 14 (to examine the bodies) " Keep going, I'll catch up."

"Uhmm... There's more that way...? Nikolai points to the south. "Helmbane and Tremmack won't like it if we split up. Remember, we are a Double Fist, not a Partial Double Fist. We have to trust these civilians will make it back fine. I know I'm not a Corporal and none of us outrank anyone, but we stick together.
Carver, the old man healed LInden, he'll probably make it back ok. We head south, now. Cameron, these dead undead are deader than ever now. They'll not go anywhere. Don't stay behind. We'll have plenty of time to check them out later."
Nikolai issues the orders in a calm, matter-of-fact way. He knows he has no authority but at least it will be said that he tried to keep the group together.
He then joins up with the group heading south, sticking close to Pru.

As screams ring out through Cheerful Stay, only some of the Double Fist is made aware of it.
Cameron begins scanning the immediate area, but an initial sweep finds nothing in the area that is magical.
Carver offers to escort the civilians back to Haggard's...
...but Nikolai protests this, wanting the Fist to stay together.
Regardless of the half-elf's wishes, Bliss flies overhead, spotting something off to the south in what seems to be a bit of a larger area where three roads meet each other.
Please let me know if everyone is moving together or separately, and give a marching order.

The Fist decides to charge south, leaving behind the corpses of the long-dead. As they move south, the screams become louder and much more obvious. Those that could not hear them before can easily hear them now. The Fist stays together, arriving on the scene in a group. A familiar scene of grisly gore as undead prey upon the civilians of Cheerful Stay. While some here are armed, they do not seem to be hitting much with their improvised weapons.
Prudence notices two undead in the adjacent alleys, easily pointing them out to her allies. (Stealth: 16)
Cameron is ready with an attack, firing at FZ1. The bolt strikes it in the back, and the creatures turns to screech at the Fist.
It took the Fist five rounds to reach this area. Adjust spell times accordingly.

Tinker responds to Prudence casting a spell down the alley by lining up the zombie and letting fly with a crossbow bolt which skitters along the stones at the far end of the alley. "I can't hit nothing!" grumbles the dwarf as he steps up, dropping the crossbow and smoothly pulling his Urgosh to a ready position, placing himself between Prudence and the zombie.

Tinker, sick of his luck with his crossbow, drops it and draws his urgrosh.
Carver charges in, but their opponents are aware of their presence now, and this formerly alive human manages to step out of the way of the centaur's strike.
Nikolai throws one of his shuriken at the creature, but it continues to lumber forward as the metal star spikes it in the shoulder.
Cameron fires another shot, but this one is far less effective than his last attack, making him wonder if the undead even felt it.
Linden steps forward to deal with the other threat in the alley, but his attack misses the skeleton.
William summons a friendly dog to help with them, but its first attack falls short of its target. (Summoned the Rottweiler into the field for you.)
SK1 attacks Linden, with a pickaxe that is long past its prime. The cleric quickly deflects the blow, surprised at the lack of strength behind it. (Attack: 11)
RZ1 moves in to assault Tinker, slamming the dwarf with its arms and leaving a foul stench behind. (Attack: 15 -- Damage: 7)

Tinker grits his teeth at the beating of the zombie, but countermands Nickolai's call. "I can take this monster! Other Fist-mates should go to the main battle and help the others!"
The dwarf slides his hands together, bringing the axe-head of his Urgosh down to cleave at the Rotting Zombie!
If he actually strikes the monster dead, Tinker wastes little time in trotting towards the main fight.

The cleric waves Bliss and William past him. "More in the high street." It points south.

Nikolai sees that his centaur friend is in trouble and moves forward to give him some help. Looking around, the monk spots another zombie lying in wait in an alley.
Bliss fires at the zombie nearest his larger friend, scoring a hit! The creature seems to be on its last legs, so to speak.
Prudence fires at the creature, but it ricochets off of the wall behind it.
William lets hic celestial hound tear into the creature in front of it, driven forward by otherwordly forces. With a dart of acid, the creature falls to the ground, writihing for a moment before laying still.
Carver strikes at the faster zombie attacking him, driving it to the ground with a series of blows that leave it decimated!
Tinker tells the others to help with the other monsters. He strikes out with his dwarven weapon, bring the creature down swiftly!
Linden urges his allies forward as well, smashing the skeletons ribs with his morningstar. Still, the creature surges forward.
Unfortunately, the civilians are not holding up as well. C1 and C3 both fall to the creatures, and C4 suffers another blow. He also returns one, slamming into SK2 with a woodaxe. It is at this point that Nikolai recognizes him as Guy, the other guard who helped them protect the stable. When he sees the half-elf, his eyes go wide. YOu can see blod flowing down his face from a large cut on his forehead as he calls out, "Nikolai! Help me!"
Seeing that there is a new threat, RZ2 turns to face Nikolai and lashes out at him, missing widely. (Attack: 9)
SK1 swings at Linden, iuts broken pickaxe clattering against his shield. (Attack: 17)

Cameron moves forward to I11 and takes a shot at RZ4 as it emerges from the alley, trying to stop it before it reaches his friends since it seems to be of the slower type of monster.
Attack hits AC 24 for 5 damage

Tinker hears Guy shouting and sees the stable guard being desperately pressed. The dwarf moves towards the man, knowing his legs won't get him there quickly. And so as he trots forward, he keeps one hand on the haft of his Urgosh and slips the other to his belt. In one motion, Tinker pulls his dagger and sets it spinning end-over-end towards SK2!
"Face ME, ya jack-a-box, I'll grind your bones to make my bread!" ...................

Carver leaves to aid Guy, which Nikolai obvioiusly can't do. As glad as the monk is that Carver rushed to Guy's aid, that left Nikolai sandwitched between two undead and is not happy about that. Wondering how many undead can be created in a day and hopping they are gaining ground on this undead army, Nikolai puts two fists into RZ2, then sidesteps to E15.
5ft step to E15 to give the others a clear shot at the undead.

Prudence also takes a step forward, but isn't as lucky with her attack.
Bliss fires another shot, pegging the zombie between its eyes and watching it tumble to the ground, finally at rest.
Carver runs to the aid of their young friend, decimating the skeleton with a single blow!
Tinker means to save his friend and fellow guard, but his centaur friend has just done so. Instead, he redirects his attack to the other skeleton, distracting it momentarily from the monk in front of it. (Redirected attack to SK3.)
William also sees that the skeleton is down, and directs all of his attacks at the fresh zombie before them. (Both targets have been downed this round, redirected attacks to FZ2.
Nikolai's first target is downed, so he moves on to the skeleton that was flanking him, dealing a solid blow that shatters the spine of the creature. It tumbles to the ground, useless.
Linden brings his arm back for a mighty swing, tearing through the skeleton's skull, neck, and upper ribs as it falls to the ground in a puff of dust. Never has an undead creature been more dead. (Rolled an attack for you. Natural 20. Confirmed. Decimated.)
Despite their allies dropping like flies, the remaining undead continue on. FZ2 turns to deal with the more prominent threat, slashing at William's dog, and digging into the creature with both claws! (Attacks: 20, 21 -- Damage: 13)
RZ4 looks forward at the small creature that attacked it, letting out a groan and charging towards Cameron with reckless abandon! Luckily, the gets his bow up in time to deflect the attack. (Attack: 17)
Guy looks to Carver with panic in his eyes. The wound on his head, while not fatal, definitely hurts. There is one civilian remaining -- a young woman wielding a frying pan. She swings at the zombie in front of her, slamming it in the head with the cast-iron cooking implement. (I need to stop rolling twenties for you guys...)

(Map doesn't show RZ4 in front of me, I am posting as if he were since he charged) Cameron backs up to G9 and fires another arrow into the zombie's(RZ4) face. Attack hits AC25 for 8 damage " Back up some William. They are slow and dumb but they don't like being pecked to death."
William nods at Cameron and says, "Will do and I've got your back..." then backs up about 20 and shoots the zombie RZ4 with one more acid dart...

[Load crossbow (move action). 5-foot step to F-7. Fire at RZ4. Hit AC 11 for 3 damage. Pru does have the Precise Shot feet, so the critter being in melee isn't an issue. I don't think there's cover, although the DMs may feel differently. :) ]

With the combined efforts of the Double Fist, the zombies crash to the ground, unmoving and finally dead. A round is done where weapons are put through skulls to ensure death, where Guy approaches Carver, breathless. "Thank you," he manages to gasp. "You saved my life out there."
"Prudence!" The sorceress looks up to see a familiar face. The sister who worked in the kitchens is the woman wielding a frying pan, apparently the only weapon she could get her hands on. She dashes up to Pru, tears in her eyes as she cries, "Please, please, you have to help him!" In all the panic and confusion, she seems to be unable to form a proper sentence. Guy looks over with a sad look in his eyes and says to Carver, "Her brother was on patrol this morning. She still hasn't found 'im. I promised to come with her, keep her safe, but..." He groans, hefting the axe with his uninjured arm. "Gonna be tough now."
While the group can hear no more screams currently, Guy points down the east road. "He was patrolling on that edge of town. Might take you a couple minutes to get there, but..." He looks past the centaur to the crying girl, still clutching a frying pan. He then turns to Nikolai with a desperate look in his eyes. "Please, you gotta help her. Her brother's all she got left. I can get her back to Haggard's."
William, Nikolai, Tinker, Cameron, and Carver are all healed for 6HP from Linden's fourth round channel energy.

Cameron stops and concentrates, casting detect magic again and quickly scanning the bodies as a moment is taken to assure the final rest of the undead. When the missing man is mentioned he is ready to join the Fist in heading that direction. That burst should have caught Guy and the woman too so they should be OK to make it to Haggard's without us. Cameron thinks. Now all we need to do is find her brother, and our Sergeants. Where did they get off too. Perception 9 Bow and arrow ready, Cameron is prepared to head to the next site of unrest. Attack hits AC 26 for 8 damage from the ready shot when we move on.

Tinker is thankful for the healing and flashes a smile at Linden as he recovers his crossbow and sets it ready. "No doubt we'll find him.", Tinker says aloud, but his thoughts continue the sentence, 'alive, dead, or undead, but we'll find him!'
Tinker is prepped and ready to move with the Double Fist to the east of the village.

Seeing the direction pointed in,"That's as good as any direction to proceed on our patrol, gather your gear, reload, or whatever you need to do, we move out in under a minute." Carver double checks his straps and his lance and shield. Satisfied, he begins a slow walk, until the others fall in and then picks up the pace to what that can maintain.

"I'm out of spells," she says. "William? What have you got left?"

Nikolai assures Guy and the lady that they will undoubtly keep looking for her brother. "Thank goodness you are still in one piece. The Fist usually doesn't accept parts into the Order," he jokes with Guy, trying to break the tense moment.
He retrieves his shuriken from the shoulder of the zombie and cleans it as best he can before commenting, "We'll head that way and see what we find. Bliss, get up in the sky again and try to spot Trimmack and Helmbane.
As they organize to continue their patrol, Nikolai takes Guy asside and asks "Do you recognize any of these zombies? It is hard to believe so many come from your town's graveyard. They have to be holed up somewhere outside and it is usually with their creator. If we can find that..." he trails off.
Nikolai joins the patrol alongside of Pru again.

I'm almost out of acid darts and then I'm down to normal crossbow bolts... We're getting lean on spells and anything more than 1 more tussle with these undead would be too many... How 'bout you?"

"I really do think they might be easy to track if people stop trampling the prints." He points to shamble marks in dirt road.
DM Ian - When There's No More Room... ROUND 1 Monday February 3rd, 2014 3:11:59 AM Cameron scans the bodies again, finding nothing on them that might be magical. However, on some of the fresher zombies, he does come across some rather fancy-looking gemstones.
Linden looks around at the bodies, not seeing anything at first glance. However, as he goes over medical processes in his head, his eye catches some odd stitching on one zombie. Upon closer inspection, he discovers that it is indeed brought together from different creatures, a mishmash of different creatures brought together to form something rotting and vaguely humanoid.
Tinkerloads his crossbow, ready to head out and find the poor girls' brother.
Carver decides that any direction is better than sitting around. He calls for a march after a minute, setting out at a slow pace so his allies can keep up.
Prudence laments being out of spells. (Did you reset your spells for the day after sleeping at Haggard's? It seems like Prudence hasn't cast 5 1st-level spells yet. Maybe I'm not counting right.
Nikolai tries to break the tension with Guy, who smiles awkwardly. When asked if he recognizes any of the zombies, the young man looks down at the corpses doubtfully. "I don't even know how many came from our graveyard. Sure, some dead folk came back to life, but no since we started burning the bodies. Even if I could see their faces... I might not recognize them." Most of the zombies, even the fresher ones, are scarred and disfigured beyond recognition.
William runs through his spells, remembering the gift he received from his uncle before leaving the Citadel. While he may not know any magic, the man does know his gifts.
Bliss scrambles onto Mookie's back after refreshing his spells and sets off above the group.
Thy Fist heads due east along the road as Guy takes the young woman back to Haggard's. No one can hear any more screaming, but occasionally a skeleton or zombie falls upon your path that becomes quickly obliterated. After two minutes of moving, the group turns a corner that looks like many others. The Fist continues to move in the general direction indicated to them by Guy. Suddenly, something stumbles out in front of you all as you grab for your weapons and level them.
"Help me..." A familiar face stumbles out into the light. Prudence immediately recognizes the brother from the inn, double over with one hand on a bleeding wound on his stomach. However, she does not recognize the creature behind him. Standing at least two feet taller than the young man, this creature that was once alive has been stripped off so much flesh that most of its muscles showed, rippling as it jerked back and forth erratically. Its skull is stuck in a sick, permanent smile as it stares at its prey, clicking its teeth together and hissing. Its limbs are long and spindly, but move in an almost hypnotic way.
Cameron levels a prepared shot at the beast, striking it in the chest. It lets out a screech, and like clockwork, zombies begin to pour out of the surrounding alleyways. The work of a Fist is never done. A fresh abomination is seen this time -- a head, completely disembodied, with bats wings sticking out of where the ears should be, screeching and flapping towards the group with a startling speed.

Mookie quickly sets Bliss down and says, "Good luck, kid!"
Bliss thinks about how much time he has left on his current Reduce Person. Rolling randomly ... 5 rounds left.
He figures he has time to take a shot at that flying thing. He takes a shot at FZ1, then ducks back under the cover of the corner of the building at E13 -- sniping to use stealth against all enemies except FZ2 and SK3.

I think somebody asked the question via email, but I don't recall it being answered. If we did not get 8 hours of rest, then Pru's spells did not reset, and neither did her Elemental Rays. If we did get 8 hours of rest, please let me know because I've been operating under the assumption that we did not.]

Tinker is tired with the running fight, but here's the girl's brother and for a wonder he's still alive, if only barely. The others are spreading to cover the flanks, and there isn't anyone to save the young man. So close!
Then the dwarf digs down into a reserve of energy. "Not today. Not now", he growls. Tinker sprints across the street, dropping his crossbow and pulling his Urgosh. Ignoring any thought of defense he leaps between the hurt boy and the monster! From some forgotten well of endurance, he heroically twirls his dwarven urgosh in a defensive pattern to keep the muscle-zombie away!

Bliss takes a quick shot at one of the undead -- unfortunately, the tiny halfling is finally spotted.
Cameron yells at the young man to run, but he seems unable to hear the halfling. He cannot track the flapping head's erratic movement, and misses by a few inches.
William, horrified by the amount of undead here, calls upon his trusted old friend Eddie the Eagle. The animal's claws rake at the bones, leaving some scratches.
Carver shouts out a few orders, charging forward to strike at one of the flying heads. It screeches as the centaur hits it, trying to stay in the air, but falling to the ground.
Prudence steps next to her allies, loading her crossbow in the process.
Tinker refuses to see another civilian die, charging forward and brandishing his weapon at the strange undead creature heroically!
Linden moves up to help his ally.
Nikolai runs to the east, getting ready for an attack.
FZ1 flaps its way towards Cameron, attempting to slam into the halfling, but missing wildly. (Attack: 8)SK1 also moves towards the archer, reaching out with its claws to swipe at him! It seems these undead are a bit older, however, as they become easier to dodge... (Attacks: 3, 8)
SK2 clambers over towards Carver, provoking an attack of opportunity! (Attack: 18 -- Damage: 10) The skeleton falls to pieces behind the centaur, lying motionless on the cobblestone. FZ2 attempts to smash into Carver, missing as all of its allies have. (Attack: 9)
SK3 swipes at the eagle bothering it with the hilt of a broken sword, but Eddie is clever enough to keep his distance. (Attack: 7)
PZ lashes out with terrifying speed and accuracy, stepping towards Linden, but focusing its attacks on the dwarf, Tinker. One strike finds its way past the dwarf's defences, knocking the wind from his lungs! (Attacks: 18, 8 -- Damage: 9)

Cameron doesn't flinch as the group of undead charge him. He drops his bow and draws his sword and shield, no sense counting on luck to save his hide when he has dwarf forged steel to do it for him. He attacks the skeleton first, hoping the spellcasters can pick off the head. Attack hits AC 17 for 4 damage on SK1
Cameron's AC is now 20 with his shield. It is 21 to any attacker larger than small.

He hits AC10, likely a miss, but if it hits, then the damage is 5.

Pru steps out and fires her crossbow at one of the undead menacing Cameron. She gives a little sigh of relief as the bolt flies true, then she re-loads.
[5-foot step to E-14. Fire at SK1. Hit AC 16 for 9 damage. Pru takes no penalty for shooting into melee, and I don't think SK1 has cover, though I'm not very good at cover.]

Tinker swears that he was struck by the terrible-looking zombie, but he doesn't hurt! And when he feels that he is protected, he realizes that Linden is supporting him. "Won't let you down, Fist-mate!" he hollars, and turns his twirling Urgosh into an uppercut with the axe-head!
His dwarven features are set in a grim mask as Tinker takes a wide stance and denies the powerful zombie access to the wounded civilian behind him!

William's magically enhanced eagle tears the skeleton apart, almost comically popping the skull off to drop it to the ground where it shatters into a dozen pieces! The wizard himself turns to fire on the skeleton harrying his friend, blasting through the spine with a well-place bolt!
Bliss fires a bolt at the nearest flying zombie, but popping out from behind cover throws his aim off too much.
Carver swings at the flying head, but its erratic movement works to its advantage this time as the lance just misses.
Prudence steps forward, only to see her target fall to pieces. She straightens her aim quickly, managing to hit the flying head with a precise strike! (SK1 is downed, redirected attack to FZ1.)
Linden takes the damage from his dwarven ally, sticking around to help boost his defensive capabilities.
Tinker knows he was struck, but can't seem to find the wound! He quickly presses the advantage, slicing at the horrid creature with a solid blow!
Nikolai also sees that his target is downed, and moves forward to help his larger friend. With a quick roundhouse-kick, the head flies into the wall, falling to the ground never to move again. (Moved Nikolai to final FZ since SK3 was dead.)
FZ1 seems unaware of the fact that it has been hit, or that its completely alone. It continues to assault Cameron, but misses horribly. (Attack: 8)
PZ looks at Tinker, almost confused, but then turns its attention to Linden with a crazed look in its milky-white eyes. It slashes at the cleric with both claws, but the cleric just manages to get his shield up in time! (Attacks: 18, 14)

Eddie lets out a victory screech, dropping the skull on it's previous owner... it needs a new target for its last round here on the prime material plane, so it flies and attacks FZ2 with its viscous bite...
Miss AC 8... Eddie then dissolves away, waiting to be called again someday...

Sore and a bit woozy, the centaur cleric continues to support the dwarf. (failing to Aid this round.... by the Gods I suck!) He keeps his shield raised. "Deadhead... hit me if you can. Much more juicy flesh here. The dwarf is gamey."

Cameron strikes at the flying head, dealing heavy damage to one of its wings!
William's pet disintegrates before it can land another attack. The wizards fires at the final flying head, downing it with a well-placed shot.
Carver finally manages to catch the flying skull with his blade, sending it flopping to the ground where it twitches a few times before dying.
Prudence finds her target dead, redirecting her attack to the zombie harassing her allies. Unfortunately, the creature moves so oddly that she cannot predict it, and the bolt misses. (FZ1 is dead, redirected attack to PZ.)
Although he feels the effects of his wounds, Linden continues attempting to support his ally.
Nikolai moves back from the downed skull, keeping an eye out for any more foes. From what the monk can tell, there are no more undead in the immediate region.
Bliss feels comfort in knowing that he will remain quite small for another short period of time.
Tinker lashes out with his urgosh, and is lucky to be holding onto it by the end of the swing.
PZ swings its limbs out so wildly they almost seem to grow. There is an attack on both Tinker and Linden -- the dwarf parries the blow, but the centaur is taken in the ribs by a claw! (Attacks: 11, 21 -- Damage for Linden: 10)

With his target down, Carver shouts out, "Tinker, step to his north side, make room for me." If he does so, Carver will move in and attack. (O,P,9,10) If he doesn't Carver will move up to N,O,10,11 and see how the brother is doing.

[Please move Pru to L-8. Now, I know that's more than a single move from where she is on the map, but yesterday I said she moved to I-12, so she should have enough movement to get to L-8 this round and still re-load.]

Tinker hears his Fist-mates arriving and grins. Taking a step to the north to surround the muscle-zombie and let Carver within reach, he again connects with his Urgosh! "Fall back Linden, the rest of the team is here. We'll take the monster down!"

Since he has no clear shot, and since his friends seem to have the situation in hand, Bliss casts a witch's Deathwatch spell, since it might help to tell where the next wave of undead will come from.
Ley check 36 = OK.
He scans around, especially checking that things on the ground are all really dead, and looking to see if any victims are maybe alive but unconscious.

William shouts out some words of encouragement, mirroring his halfling ally's strategy. Looking around, he cannot see any other immediate danger -- but that isn't to say that there may not be some somewhere else. The civilian, while he is breathing, is doing so with great difficult. He seems barely able to stand on his own at this point.
Carver calls for his ally to make room for him, swinging at the final zombie and missing.
Prudence joins the reloaded crossbow club.
Tinker steps out of the way of his ally and connects with his attack, tearing a hole in the creature's back with his urgosh.
Linden steps away, healing himself quickly.
Bliss casts a spell allowing him to see the various stages of death around him. As far as he can tell, none of the undead corpses around him are still active. Most of the civilians are beyond saving, but one or two jump out as still alive enough to be rescued. The brother hardly counts as one of these. The witch wonders how the boy is holding himself up with such grave injuries. (Haha, "grave" injuries.)
Nikolai stands his ground, keeping an eye out for any more foes on their way.
PZ looks at its current situation and turns to run, provoking AoO's from Tinker and Carver. The dwarf's swing just misses, but Carver pierces it through the chest before it has the chance to get away.
The final corpse hits the ground. All is silent, save for the laboured breathing of the injured.

Cameron stands with his mouth hanging open in shock, his longbow dangling from his hands. The undead must be semi intelligent! It fled when combat went against it. His mind is quickly returned to the job at hand by the man's moans. Stepping forward the halfling eases the man to the ground and examines his wounds. Heal 13 Unable to tell much more than the wounds are bad, really bad he calms the man by rectiting a short poem and laying his hand on the man's brow. Healing magic flows from his hands into the man, hopefully enough to knit the wound. Cast Cure Light Wounds for 3 healing
Bliss (Cayzle) (AC17, HP16 of 16) Friday February 7th, 2014 2:33:40 PM
Bliss says to Carver, "We gotta save these wounded folks! We can't just leave them here! Maybe Miss Prudence can check for magic?"
The tiny witch uses his deathwatch sight to point out those who can be saved, and casts his stabilize cantrip as many times as needed (recasting if he flubs the ley check).
He urges the strongest in the party to carry the wounded.
Then it is time to move out. Where are the commanding officers?

Evidence that at least some of the undead has some form of intelligence, Nikolai comments, "Next time we have one of these that tries to get away, let 'em get away. We need one of these to run to its hideout so we can follow it."

Tinker worries with his Fist-mates over the intelligent supposedly mindless undead, and he silently nods at Nickolai's wise words.
But Cameron's thoughts are closer to Tinker's immediate concerns. Recover equipment, check and prepare, and ready to move out. "Where are Trimmack and Helmsbane? We have to keep up the sweep to meet them and be ready to help them out of a jam."
Urgosh wiped and stowed, crossbow with bolt back in his hands, the dwarf is tired but ready to continue the mission
