Oh look,the lich has returned. Now he let his guards know everything is cool and can send his them home ….
looks over to the wall being pummeled
… and whatever you do, pray you don’t drop that thing afterwards . It would be a shame for something to happen to it.
Xymox nods at Trolkarl and commands the evil nasties outside the door to flee. Then. seeing that Trolkarl is not willing to except his thoughtful offering, will gently and slowly place the phylactery on the nearest flat surface.
Starker walks over to the phylactery. “I will examine then carry it unless there is an objection.”
places platinum circlet etched with the name Illiandel on his head, reaches down, pauses, looking at Kragen, Xymox, and Ser. If none object, picks it up and starts to investigate to see if it can be opened.
investigation = 22
Starker, in an adide:”Ser, If The Company promised to reimburse you, wo you be willing to sacrifice your box so we could store the phylactery in its far dimension. If Illiandil comes back, it will be far away, with no equipment, no spell book, and perhaps trapped inside the box which wr can arcane lock?”
”Though the thought of he and the phylactery falling forever does make me smile.”
Kragen clears his throat loudly. "Oh Curious Mage of ours, do you have soecific knowledge on the means to destroy this artifact? If you curiousity is seeking other knowledge, i reccommend we discuss before proceeding. We should be aligned on our purpose before going further."
(( Everything after this seems to have assumed success. Although a good try at Dread Pirate Roberts. Kudos. ))
The wall comes down. The Mukbok charge. They are in fact not “fleeing.”
Starker:”I know that these are hollow and contain writings and other objects key to the lich’s continued cyvle of resurrection. I doubt my manipulations can affect an opening, but I am certain that if I do not try it will remain closed. However, in prudential matters like this that impact The Company I have said I will defer to you, Tyr’s Wise One, and so I shall.”
Starker, quaffing a healing potion and a greater healing potion, wiping his mouth, rolls up his sleeves turns to face the direction tge enemy will come from: “perhaps we banish their spell caster immediately? And I am open to tacticsl suggestions as to where to place the Wall of Fire and how to orient it. As it is an evocation, I can make 5 of us immune to its heat. “
cyrus mounts the skull atop EmFer’s Chastisement andmimes rolling up his sleeves.
Serethia prepares herself to fight. She sends the chest away. “Any surprises or tricks you have been holding onto? If so, now is the time.”
Xymox to act. He has the Ring, Staff, Crown and Phylactery. (( The R S C P notation on his token ))
Xymox moves back away from the secret door. "My friends, I'm open to suggestions, but is there any theories on how to wield these items to our advantage?" (Does Xymox still "feel" the effects of the items? If so, he will try to channel whatever power is available.)
PUT THE CANDLE BACK!!!!!!!
Yartol casts Silence in the area of the white circle. He then draws swords.
Chadwick to act.
We need a plan to destroy the phylactery or flee. Probably both.
But we are not winning this fight.
Our goal can’t be to beat them directly, we have got to do this a different way.
Starker runs away diagonally SW, jinking a bit west to get bad guys in lo casts Chromatic Orb (Thunder) then runs out of los in SW corner
Mukbak Warrior 3. To hit 25, dam 26 (bounce)
Mukbak Warrior 5. To hit 16, dam 33 (bounce)
heroic inspiration to re-roll hit if a miss
Mukbak Warrior 5. To hit 28 nat 20 critical, dam 52 (12d8) (bounce)
Mukbak Warrior 1. To hit 25, dam 16, bounce
Mukbak sorceror. To hit 9 (nat 1)
Starker’s Chromatic Orb hits and bounces through three of the warriors. Crashing thunder resounds through the halls. The sorcerer easily dodges the spell. The affected warriors are mildly damaged.
Serethia, “That was not as strong as I had hoped you could do. Any ideas on escape, rather than getting pounded to pulp?”
Chadwick to act.
Starker:”Sir Chadwick, no sword in the universe can sap your gooddness. Grab it and save us!!!!”
Chadwick takes a quick peek around the corner. "See Yartol they are too afraid to face me!" He says this with a laugh.
"Might want to cover your ears, this is going to get loud." He starts taking a big breath getting ready to round the corner, then stops and steps back. He lifts a finger, then slowly looks down as if he's concentrating on something. "We might still have another ally." Then he snaps looking towards the giant menacing sword. "Not you, you can &^#@ (giant cursing) right off. I swear I'm going to make to into horseshoes after we get out of here!."
He then goes back to concentrating, speaking softly and earnestly.
Chadwick tries to reach out to the titan Krothys. "We have defeated Illiandil and have his phylactery, but are trapped by his hoard of Mukbuk and we are unsure how to escape. If there is any aid you could offer, it would be greatly appreciated."
Chadwick pleads to the frozen titan to come to your aid. No immediate effect is seen or felt.
Mukbok Warrior 3 charges. (( I am assuming Chadwick uses Reaction to attack. This is closer than 10’ due to the corner Chadwick is behind. )). Halberd to hit = 13. A miss.
The Mukbok attacks, to hit = 25. Hitting Chadwick for 19 slashing and 8 lightning damage. Second attack, to hit = 23 for 14 slashing and 14 lightning damage. Total damage = 55.
The sorcerer moves forward, out of the area of Silence and casts Power Word, Pain targeting Yartol. Yartol’s DC18 CON save = 17 + 3 for being near Chadwick. Success. “Gryndreneur prepared me for you, sorcerer. Nice try,” he growls.
Trolkarl to act.
Not a great start for the home team.
Was going to use Thunderous Rebuke, but reaction already spent.
Trolkarl moves before Serethia, raises his shield to provide cover.
Action :Dodge
Summon the demon, witch! If you can have it attack them we will take whatever help we can. Hopefully that summon works
Kragen, unleash whatever’s trapped in that flask.Perhaps it can distract a few.
We need a path to flee or find another way! Do we have anymore passwall?
