A vampire, reaching Dageron, grabs for him, but its fingers latch uselessly onto his armor. It isn't trying to grapple him...it's up to something else...

Adam glances around the room quickly to see who is left, then he moves to Dageron and replies, “Orders are to finish what you are doing, destroy the pod inhabitants and ascend. Let me handle this one for you…”. He engages the vampire that is reaching for Dageron, trying to hit him with his lightsaber.
Inquisitor’s Lightsaber swing 1 : 29 to hit, for 15 points of slashing damage, and 10 points of radiant damage (HP maximum reduced by the amount of radiant damage).
Inquisitor’s Lightsaber swing 2 : 20 to hit, for 18 points of slashing damage, and 8 points of radiant damage (HP maximum reduced by the amount of radiant damage).
Adam's lightsaber rends the vampire viciously, leaving blood and gore splattering across the floor. The vampire is still standing...but barely. It looks like a hard wink could knock it over.
As this exchange happens, another vampire closes with Adam, reaching out to touch his face with its hand, and something clearly happens.
The last of the vampires moves to stop Dageron, but is unable to get close enough to him yet. They are clearly not keen on the 'coffins' being destroyed.
Ralik is quick (though not as quick as he had been before...) to move up next to Adam and Dageron, still whooping his warcry as his ball of darkness overwhelms this moving vampire and the sound of blades on flesh can be heard...

Shavaris has Eloise move in front of the vampire that is heading for her and she runs over to where Dag and Adam are. She attacks the weakest vampire first and then moves on to the next one.
Travin looks around the room finding nothing threatening and even less of interest. He wonders for a moment whether he should begin carving a path upward whilst everyone finished their silly fight but the noises distract him. voices from below. He hangs his head through the hole in the floor and watches, seeing something begin to happen to those who are touched by vampire spawn. We can't have that... Lowering his shawm Travin begins to play a few discordant notes which don't fit together in a melody by any means but still he continues to play, weaving anti magic into the vibrations travin casts countercharm and will continue to play it until people start moving to his floor above.
Shavaris's weapons slice one of the strange vampires to ribbons, dropping it to the floor where it instantly burst into a white gelatinous mess. The second attack nails one of its compatriots, giving it a vicious slice across the abdomen. As she attacks, one of the flies buzzes over to her and zips around her face, but the Elf is simply moving too fast for it to be able to land a bite on her.
Dageron ignores the enemy combatants and continues to the next container, impaling its occupant as before. As he moves towards it, he tries to assess how many there are (( any way to quickly assess that? )).
Before Johnathan's Eldritch Blast, only one person in all of Hyboria had known the true power of overkill; had known the true feeling of unbridled power, unrelenting malice. That had been Adam, who had previously turned a fly into little more than cosmic dust.
But then...Johnathan...
The Eldritch Blast hit the fly and destroyed it in the instant, shattering its very being into similar cosmic particles before these particles, dispersing into the ether in a little cloud traveling near the speed of light, was hit by a second, even more destructive explosion. The dust was ripped asunder, the very bonds holding the building blocks of the material plane together being shattered and undone with only slightly less fury than that of a god's. Thorough. Indiscriminate. The fly was suddenly nothing more than a memory, even as the heat of the Eldritch Blasts whipped across Shavaris's face.
She'd remember the heat of Johnathan's unmitigated might long after the memory of the fly was gone, issuing up its final death...
Adam doesn’t see any other vampire spawn threatening them, he looks to see Dageron moving from pod to pod, destroying the inhabitants. “Time, this is taking too much time. Can we head up to join Travin, does anyone know a spell to destroy all of these pods at once?” Adam turns and twists his lightsaber around, making a few twirls with it as he looks through the room for any other combatants. If he sees none and if anyone else calls out a plan to destroy the pods, Adam would jump up to Travin, heading upward to the next level. If there are any others on this level, he will move to engage, to defend the others as the pods are destroyed.
As soon as the vampires realize what is happening, they panic. Two of them immediately dash for Dageron and Adam, and are met by Ralik's whirling scimitars, slicing the most wounded one to ribbons...
Travin sees that the group have the vampires outnumbered and outgunned, he keeps up the counter charm hoping that it is working for something. Train remembers vampires from movies and cartoons and such when he was young, now that all magic he thought was fiction is in fact real, it gives him reason to worry about the group being turned to vampire thralls.
Adam sees the vampires approaching and he advances to meet them, giving Dageron more time to do his work. “Destroy the pods! Here they come…..”. And he starts swinging.
Inquisitor’s Lightsaber swing 1 : 20 to hit, for 20 points of slashing damage, and 10 points of radiant damage (HP maximum reduced by the amount of radiant damage).
Inquisitor’s Lightsaber swing 2 : 19 to hit, for 13 points of slashing damage, and 7points of radiant damage (HP maximum reduced by the amount of radiant damage).
Dageron, hearing Adams orders confirmed, continues to the next pod. "Understood..." (( Rinse and repeat of past recent turns, unless he is directly attacked )). As he continues, a thought comes to him. "Adam, this building seems to have a mix of fabrics and wood materials throughout it. Why not light this place ablaze as we ascend? Nothing below us can attack, and it cuts off our enemies' most likely lines of retreat. Of course, we'd have to have our own exit planned... Travin, could you help with that?" He looks around, realizing Travin isn't with them. "Where is Travin?"
The god awful shawm tooting continues from above signaling exactly where travin is, his head dangling from the hole in the ceiling and his goggles swinging as he giggles at Dageron's question.
The last of the vampires are cut down by Adam's lightsaber and a hail of Johnathan's Eldritch Blasts, breakings apart and splattering across the floor in pieces of fleshy slag and pools of black ichor. Their skin begins to sizzle and boil away from their bodies, sublimating into the air around them, leaving them uncontested in the room full of bizarre upright lockers housing bodies...

Shavaris then attacks the vampires that are remaining...
