Agax Gryyg, game mage:

The situation was dire. His friends' lives slipping away, the dreaming wizard desperately tried to help them! He called forth words of power from the distant, higher dimension of enigmatic Urth! "Lugosi! Lee! Langella! Kinski! Oldman! Schreck!"

If he can cast Lightning Bolt upon the remaining (known) wights, without hitting a friend, Agax will do so.
Otherwise, he will shield Gragog with Protection From Evil. Thanks.

Date: Trieluna 13, 1222
Time: 7:51 PM - Combat Round 4
Weather: Fog
Location: Castle Ravenloft, Staircase
**************************************

The wights attack clumsily, missing both Lar and Gragog. Lar and Gragog's counterattacks also miss. Bragar's crossbow fires as he's loading it; the bolt smashes into the ceiling after just missing Gragog's head.

The invisible Castran heads back upstairs to check on Shinyah.

Agax has seen enough. He pulls a scroll from his pocket and begins reading. When he is done, another thunderbolt splits your ears as lightning crackles across the water. Both wights seize up and fall into the water, their miserable un-lives ended.

Agax Gryyg, game mage:

"Please find Scarlett!" Agax urged anew. "I will check on Shinyah. I hope Cyrus hasn't surprised him!" he says as he races back up the stairs with his elven hood up, and his glowing gem enclosed in a pouch.

Gragog "Hmm where was Scarlett during all of that battle?" the half-orc fighter now remembers Scarlett is missing.

Shinyah, Druid

Shnyah is surprised to see the group heading back up the stairs. Oh! Are we heading back upstairs, now? He holds up the light coin. I got the coin. I figured we would have need of it in the future.
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Agax Gryyg, game mage:

The dreaming wizard dips his everglowing lantern box from atop his staff under the water to look for Scarlett.

"Yes. We're going back up once we find Scarlett, last seen pulled under these waters! Help us search, please.
Did you encounter Cyrus?"
he adds innocently.

Are the bears here?

Bragar doesn't have Detect Charm, but Agax does. Once we find Scarlett, let's go back upstairs. Agax can then check every PC and Cyrus at once.

The bears are just up the stairs from the group; the water is not. At the moment, the party is about halfway between floors on the spiral staircase.

Agax Gryyg, game mage:

Seeing that no one remained behind to search for Scarlett, Agax descends the stairs."Let's find Scarlett!"

At the bottom, he dips his everglowing lantern box from atop his staff under the water to look for Scarlett.
