The gnome climbs back ontop of the roof, dropping to one knee and lining up his shot. The bolt flies loose, streaking across the open field and striking one of the undead in the skull. It lets out a loud moaning scream before falling to the ground.
In the next instant, a streak of purple energy shoots out from Silthras, striking the undead creature directly to the west. You can hear bones crack as the magical bolt impacts its torso, but it remains standing.
With a mental reminder to procure a ranged weapon of some kind in the future, Kal hops over the stone wall and moves 20 feet out. His sword glows in a soft blue light as he casts Divine Favor, holding it ready to strike the first undead that comes within range.
Under the combined assault of Silthras and Velyra, another of the undead drops in a flaming heap. Usul lets another bolt fly, instantly dropping a third zombie. Hearing the cries of the falling undead, one of the others in the northern field turn, and begins to hurriedly shamble in Kal's direction.
Order: Green highlight means your turn in initiative
Kal casts a brief glance back at his allies as their adversaries start dropping like flies. Shaking his head in a slight bit of amusement, he turns back and marches forward to the closest undead, swinging his blade in arc.
Silthras moves southwest remaining below the fence line, then rises slightly so that he can see the nearest zombie, and once more launches an arcane magics at the nearest creature. He then moves north, starting to climb onto the roof.
Stealth if needed: 14
Attack: 14 Damage: 7 (Second attack roll if advantage 23 )
Kal's blade slices through the neck of the undead, nearly cutting it clean off. With a resounding crack, Silthras' arcane bolt finishes the job as it strikes it in the center of the forehead, sending the head rolling on the ground.
The zombie that had been lumbering on the road moves in on Kal, slamming its fists uselessly against his armor.
"There's not so many left now, that was surprisingly easy." Velrya says as she crosses over the stone wall, walking up as far as she can and casting Sacred Flame on the undead engaged with Kal.
The zombie groans in pain as radiant fire rains down upon, sizzling the decayed flesh on its shoulders and upper torso. The other remaining under stumbles closer, heading towards the nearest fleshy target in sight.
Again taking a deep breath as he focuses down the sites of his, tightly pulled, crossbow Usul fires at the further of the two creatures, knowing that his companions will soon be able to deal with the remaining.
Another bolt streaks from the rooftop, dropping the undead on its way as the bolt passes through its skull. A concussive blast of energy strikes the other in the chest, knocking it back while Kal follows up with a deep slash across its chest, nearly cutting it clean in half. The final zombie falls, leaving the road and fields to the manor clear.
Up the road, you can see the undead patrolling the manor still continue to do so, not seeming to have noticed your short battle.
Kal flings the gore from his sword and sheaths it, walking back to his companions. "That went about as well as it possibly could." He gestures back towards the manor, and the undead still circling around it. "Now how do we want to tackle that?"
Silthras climbs down from the roof, and nods, "Very well indeed. Best we don't stand in front of the gnome though!" he says, eyeing the diminutive figure's crossbow with a level of awe.
He ponders Kal's question, "Perhaps...stick with a good plan? Though, next time..." he removes his bow from his back and offers it to the knight, "...use this. It's been with me a very long time, so I'll want it back."
"Perhaps the gnome, or you or I can attract the attention from one inside the property. They look to be in range of the roof."
Kal takes the bow, handling it with care as he gives the string a test pull. "I'll be sure to keep it in one piece, thank you."
"Try to draw them out here a few at a time? That could work. We could probably just let a volley fly from the gate and drop two of them." He pauses for a moment, then looks to the gnome."Or at least Usul most likely could."
