Magdal

Magdal stands guard while Ithrandir tends to Loyn's wounds, "Brave work there Master Loyn. We'd likely died if not for you."

Gyb

Gyb cuts through the trees as fast as he can. Once on the other side he begins to recover his javelins, which should be scattered around that area.

Loyn-dwarf fighter

Loyn’s eyelids flutter, seeing burry figures above him, their voices sound familiar and yet faraway, all the while feeling burning pain, what’s happening!

One Short Of A Baker's Dozen
Coming Back To Life
Early Afternoon, Warm Clear


Outside

Wincing through her excruciating pain from being frozen in place for what seemed an eternity, Renna shuffles over to heal Crobeus back to consciousness again. He too feels quite stiff from his near death experience.

They watch as Bugs and Stobart start making their way down to the next ledge level, following behind the pack of Skeletons currently carrying Mienhardt towards the next cave entrance. They get down without issue, but will need to hurry if they intend to catch the boney pallbearers.

Once Gyb races through the trees, hoping to retrieve his tossed weapons, he notices his pursuit has lost interest and started back down the ledge as well. As he picks up his first javelin, he spots the unconscious Pimlan on the ground nearby.

Inside

With no idea their friends are in a fight for their lives down the corridor, Ithrandir and Magdal do what they can for their unconscious savior on the floor. They bind his wounds but have no way to bring the Dwarf back to the functioning world. They start to hear loud, obnoxious cries that sound like a housecat being tortured. Then they hear Keya's voice frantically calling for help, as he bashes the undead cat trapped inside his cloak into the walls and floor repeatedly. Unfortunately for the quick thinking Ranger, the punishment he deals out to the cat doesn't seem to be hurting it very much, if at all.

In a very precarious situation against a foe far beyond his own skills, Daliedhur stands his ground instead of fleeing for his life. By trying to avoid contact, while also trying to administer contact, his attack against the spell casting foe fails badly. So badly that he almost slips and falls to the floor alongside the table with the horrific brain experiments. (no need to ask if your 1 hits or not) :lol: The masked man is clearly shaken by the sounds of the cat screaming in the next room. When he reaches out to touch the elf, his hand contacts his shoulder, sending an intense wave of pain ravishing through his body. I will need a Save vs. Spells, please. You probably want to make this one. :?

Daliedhur

Just a reminder - Protection from Evil should still be in play - not sure how touch attacks work in AD&D but evil creatures should have -2 to hit me :P

Usually when I NEED to make a save, that is when I fail.


Saving Throw vs Spells (need a 12) [1d20+2]=15+2=17 (the +2 is from Protection from Evil, not sure if it applies)

Wohoooo!

With a snarl to try and shake off the desperation, Daliedhur continues his attack!

Longsword attack on the masked man [1d20+3]=20+3=23 Damage [1d8+3]=8+3=11

:shock:

Stobart

Stobard runs after the skeletons holding Mienhardt.

Just wanted to confirm this is part of the group of skeletons he tried to turn so he can't turn them again. How many rounds before they reach the entrance.

Magdal

Magdal looks from Loyn to Ithrandir, "Did you hear that? It sounded like Keya." Then looking down at the unconscious dwarf, "One of us needs to stay with Loyn. I will go to Keya or stay and guard Loyn, I leave that decision up to you sir," looking at Ithrandir.

Ithrandir

"You go, Magdal. I'm too wounded to be of any use. As soon as Loyn can walk, we're leaving this place. But I don't have anything that could heal him."

Keya figuring out that the supernatural essence of this creature will not be shattered by brute force, he concentrates on confining the MUMMY CAT in the cape and trying to keep it from moving.

Confine [1d20]=13

If he see MAgdal come running up.

"Magdal, there is rope in my pack, get it out."

While I appreciate players paying attention.....Renna can also not see that area from 25 feet below the edge of the ledge.

(lets just say I dropped that there so I wouldn't forget about it) :lol:

While some of them are from the same group as before, the majority were from the group that was waiting down below. (new group)

They are right outside the entrance, so you might need to actually enter the cave if you intend to pursue fully.

In that case I'm guessing I'd need to try and turn them now before they vanish inside?
