Cumulative Will save vs. Solaric's Channeling1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Zahur, Pitr and Solaric use their swords against the zombie horde like a farmer uses his scythe in field of grain, arms, legs, heads fly everywhere and at last a flash of light blasts the zombies at the front row to shreds! After a moment of silence only three small tattered creatures remain.
The guards cheer and the second light blast at the rear damages the other group of attackers further, it seems like Desna has chosen her side.
But the remaining zombies are still athreat and so the little monsters charge the fighters at the front line

Damage1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Small Zombie attacking Solaric1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Damage1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
and while most of their attacks are just miserable, one is able to smash the skull of one of the guards.
The zombies in the back press onward and attack the rest of the party

Damage1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Small Zombie attacking Kirk1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

but they don't fare much better and Ricca kills one of them with an arrow through the neck.
Jarovich just runs towards you, his eyes burning with an unearthly fire.

Count Alexandru Jarovich |
After running some more metres towards you, the Count shouts
Now this is your end horseman! I will grind your bones.
Jarovich smashes his fist into the palm of his other hand and suddenly Zahur begins to convulse.

Zahur of Wellsbottom |
Fort Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
The garundi lets out an anguished cry of pain, and seems to slump further into his saddle from the weight of his equipment and armour.
With determined resolve he keeps swinging his sword and urges on his mount.
Fight on! Don't let this demon spawned despot win!
Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3) + 3 = 10
As his blade cleaves throught the mass of flesh and bones in front of him he has Night attack the one in front of the militia man.

I Think so. +3bab + 1MW + 1heirloom weapon + 1str + 1 bless + 1 higher ground. But you can take off 2 from the damage, it should only be + 1. I was mixing it up with an another character who has 20str so I made my calcs on 14 str for dmg
Pitr Jendarne |
Hearing Zahur's shout, Pitr charges Jarovich before he has a chance to think about it and slashes with all his might.
Power attack 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 9 + 2 + 1 = 31oops. -1 for PA

huzzah! possible 38 damage to Jarhead. Pitr current AC16.
Count Alexandru Jarovich |
Ah, armor training, nifty indeed!
Pitr rushes over to Jarovich who's superior grin forms into a grimace of terror as the young fighter brings his bastard sword down on the Count.
Heavily wounded Jarovich is yet not ready to die, spitting out blood he shouts
You really think you can kill me! False life protects me and you will die now for your failure to finish me!

After Pitr's devastating blow, the guards rush to his side to help him kill the necromancer, yet only one of them scores a minor hit uhoh
Zahur and Night have no problems dispatching two other zombies and the former overcrowded frontline of Jarovich's minion now only consists of one single kobold zombie who slashes at Solaric
Zombie attacking Solaric1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

but misses.
It looks differently at the other end where Victoria is attacked by a stinking orc zombie
Zombie attacking Victoria1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Damage1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
but this one also misses.
The last one who is a target of the ugly undeads is Kirk, who is attacked by another kobold zombie

Round 6
Kirk, seeing Victoria engaging a zombie behind him with her dagger, coldly decides to leave the Captain to his fate and turns to help his friend without saying anything but, "On my way, Countess!"
Acrobatics 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24 to L39, in order to flank w/ Victoria.

With the Zombie lured into Kirks ambush, Victoria smiles to Kirk in appreciation before breaking and running in behind Solaric, alarmed at his condition (double move behind Solaric)

The guards follow Jarovich but all of them miss!

Arcane Fail chance 15% 1d100 ⇒ 45

And starts running toward Pitr...(J24)
Kirk Spearborn |
Kirk can't help but chuckle at the sight of the Captain's demise, and he turns to face the remaining zombies in the area alone. He steps to the side of the zombie he's next to (5 foot step to J40) and attacks with dagger and sword, crying to Victoria as she leaves, "I'll hold our flank, make sure Jarovich doesn't get away!"

Round 7
Solaric races to the back to face the zombies and give assistance to Kirk and the captain. Double move to K36
Where is the captain? Has he fallen in battle? No!!! Dear Inheritor, by your light, let the man live so that he may redeem himself for his fallen ways!
Where is the captain's body located? Is there any chance that he is simply unconscious?
'Countess' Victoria |
Where is the captain? Has he fallen in battle? No!!! Dear Inheritor, by your light, let the man live so that he may redeem himself for his fallen ways!
Consider his debt now repaid!
Zahur of Wellsbottom |
With renewed vigor, Zahur drops his greatsword to Nights side while he urges her on at full gallop towards Jarovich while he couches his lance for the hopeful impact.
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage: 2d8 + 2 ⇒ (2, 1) + 2 = 5
What pitiful damage for a charge with a lance

Jarovich takes a step back, now with his back against the wall of the cottage, he opens his arms wide and shouts
Do you really think my death would change anything?! I'm just one of many and you will never be able to defeat all of us! Now die with me!
He crosses his arms in front of his chest and casts a group of magic missiles aimed at Zahur.
Magic Missile5d4 + 5 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 1, 4) + 5 = 17
Meanwhile the two remaining zombies attack Kirk

Round 8
Solaric moves to I37 and lays his hands on the fall Captain to heal his wounds and stabilize him.
He approaches carefully from the side, trying to avoid any attacks of opportunity that may come from the zombies.
Lay on Hands 1d6 ⇒ 4
"May the Inheritor save you!"
Kirk Spearborn |
Kirk continues his relentless assault on the zombies.
Attack Short sword w/out flanking (I move first in initiative order) 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Attack Dagger 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage 1d4 ⇒ 3
Then, Kirk sees Pitr fall to the Count's magic and grimaces with anger. Zombie blood spots his face and chest and drives him even crazier with blood lust. "GET BACK OVER THERE AND KILL THAT SON OF A B+!*%!" he screams in his fury at Solaric as he's bending over the captain.

Victoria runs to Pitrs side...

"Thats my main healing down, carefull men!"
DM Zyren/ Heart of Light |
Pitr opens his eyes again, his face smeared with blood and gore, he manages a sly grin...as usual, he is alive, yet now it does not look very good for Zahur.
On the other side Kirk manages a minor hit against one of the zombies.
The guards press on and trap Jarovich at the wall, one even scores a minor hit again!

Solaric makes a full round run action straight back to the Count. He runs in a straight line at his fastest speed possible.
Can he run as a full round action at x3 all the way to J25?

"You're a lifesaver, Countess. How come you're still single?"

Guard attacking Jarovich1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Damage1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
As the nacromancer turns round, most the blows just slash through the air, only one of the guards waits a moment longer and strikes exactly at the right moment, his sword breaks through the ribcage of Jarovich and sinks deeply into his heart, that another strike hits his tigh is already unimportant.
The cloaked man stumbles and falls on his face, for a heartbeat only the sound of the wind is audible, then the zombies at the tower crumble with the magic of their master ebbing away.
Ricca eyes the body incredulously
I can't believe it, that was all? He's dead? No flashes, no lightning, no nothing?
And as if her words were heard by some cruel god on a distant plane, suddenly a blast of crystal shrapnells pierces through the guards and everything close the necromancer's body. His clothes are torn to rags and a strange metallic vest is now visible that looks like it held the shrapnells in small cells. Very slowly Jarovich gets back to his feet
Not over yet! NOT OVER YET!

Solaric continues his direct run straight at Count Jarovich
With a move x3 he will reach I16 with move to spare this round. As a swift action, he will smite evil on Count Jarovich.
"Iomedae, Light of My Sword, let me strike down Count Alexandru Jarovich, the heart of evil in this land, in your name!"
Zahur of Wellsbottom |
sorry for the delay, I don't usually have internet access on the week-ends. If it slows down play too much feel free to npc me Zyren.
Rd 8: Zahur drinks a potion to mend some of his wounds. 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 and moves to H22
Rd 9: After receiving the Countess' healing he spurs Night onwards for another charge through the count and ends his movement at H8, Ride by attack doesn't provoke an AOO.

Jarovich, pinned between the building and Pitr sees his only option in casting one last devastating spell. A small ball of fire begins to grow in his hands as his enemies in melee have a last opportunity to attack him.
AOO for Pitr and Solaric

Upon seeing the flaming sphere form in the necromancer's hands, Solaric seizes the opportunity with a mighty blow with his longsword, and stabs Count Jarovich in his heart!
DM Zyren/ Heart of Light |
Wow, that was quite a blow...no fireball mass kill then, huh?
Jarovich tries to fend off the sword with his bare hands, but besides losing some fingers, this has no effect on Solaric's blow.
Blood runs over his lips and coughing heavily he slumps down to the ground.
He reamains still this time...it seems like now it's really over.
Exhausted Ricca seats herself on a pile of log, looking up to the castle she comments
Now, what do we do with any remaining guards?
