This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
You strike down at the suit of armor as it suddenly sparks to life once more and tries to parry your blow. It brings its axe up to slowly though and your blade smashes down into it leaving a large dent in its chest-plate from the force of its own blade being pushed back into it. The second suit moves quickly towards you and swings its large bladed weapon at you...
Attack: 11 Damage: 11 slashing damage
The armor which you damaged attempts to follow suit with a body slam...
Attack: 10 Damage: 6 bludgeoning damage
EDIT: ...Both attacks miss as you jump back and out of the way!
Smoke suddenly begins to waft from the kitchen outwards into the main hall and up the stairs....
It is just a few streams at first... but it gradually begins to thicken... then as if all at once begins billowing out and up the stairs....
An evil laughter echos from the room...
You all look around and Pidlwick is no longer with you....
Searing hot air suddenly fills the staircase and makes its way up to the upper floor....
The smoke begins to choke you all...
Some one shouts, "Oh no!" as the realization hits home...
Pidlwick has set fire to the house in an attempt to murder you all!
The laughter continues as you all race back down the stairs and into the foyer in an attempt to find the door from which you entered this damnable house....
One by one you become light headed and short of breath...
You crawl around looking for the hidden door...
Alas it does not want to be found and you all pass out one by one....
Heat... so much heat.... white searing heat....
Then... pain... so much pain....
But then... nothing....
Darkness....
Cool darkness....
Silence....
You suddenly shoot awake and throw sweat soaked blankets from your chest....
Panicked you look around....
And find you are in an Inn room...
Bottles litter the floor...
You go to the window and throw it open to let in the cool morning air....
Outside you see people sleeping in the festival littered streets....
You groan as a searing pain suddenly spikes in your head...
You cover your eyes and draw the curtains once more....
UGHH.... what a Harvest Festival that was!

(Raxin would keep throwing out Eldritch blasts until he hit a suit of armor to see the result.)

You strike the closest suit of armor with your burst of force energy... you watch as one of the arms flies off and clatters into the wall....
The suits remain still....

Ralg is impatient. He''ll move up with a low growl in his throat. Using his Bugbear extra reach, he will strike out at the closest armor with his axe.

Didn't quite make the DC... the animated armor raises a metal fist and deflects the blow.
