2-handed Dwarven Waraxe Attack: 1d20+5
Dwarven Waraxe 2-handed damage: 1d10+3
The axe hits, but bounces off harmlessly.
Laucian pauses to think for a second, and then starts chanting as he lays a hand on Gilgar's back. Immediately following the touch Gilgar start to grow. At first his hands along with his axe and his feet seem double in size. Quickly following that, his body get larger both in width and height growing into his newly sized hands and feet. Proportionaly he looks the same as before; however one would now have to look at him and his gear from a greater distance for them to appear to be his original size.

Winter bites and scrapes at the unnatural thing, but his efforts do not seem to be having much effect.
Almost frothing at the mouth, swinging my waraxe with all my might, growling at the effort put into the overhand swing.

Nox slices across the metal of the cauldron one more time
"Unholy enchanted beast, why won't you just die?"
Bite Attack
Bite Damage
As Perrin lunges to bite the cauldron as it struggles, some debris is flipped up from the ground and, in an unfortunate turn of events, the wolf swallows it, causing him to be ill.
Winter makes a mighty roar at the kettle just as the thing begins to right itself and finds himself roaring directing into the thing's maw! His normally frightening roar takes on a volume of terrifying proportions, startling Sylvanis, but literally deafening the big cat .
Essentially unmarked from the attacks of opportunity, the big black pot rights itself and renews its attack on the trespasser. Once again, it bites the elven druid , but it fails to get a hold of him.
Kettle damage Kettle Damage 6+2+3+11+1+8+2+12+3+2+4+4
A string of curses jet from my mouth, eyes bulging and veins popping out all over. Stomping the ground once, I heft my axe for the next attack, screaming "DIIIIIEE!!!" as I swing down.

Laucian steps back 5 feet avoiding the fight while thinking of how this things can be defeated.

Winter's bite and claw chip off more of the flakes on the big black pot's surface, but do little to slow it down.
Not trying to be stealthy, simply trying to get a good vantage point just inside the door this round. If the cauldron comes after me I'll attempt to make the 2-3ft step from inside to outside.
Sylvanis is able to enter the hut with no noticeable reaction from the cauldron, which continues its assault on Nox. And fails to catch the wily elf in its maw.

Laucian looks around for an object he can use as a club two handed club. If he find one he will spend the rest of his action going to it to pick it up.
Perception
Gilgar's sudden increase in size throws off his aim and he buries the axe in the ground just past the cauldron, overreaching his target.
Laucian spots a candidate for his search, but it is on the edge of the clearing, too far to reach this round.

For the record, the save DC will be 10 + spell level (1 in this case) + Nox's Wisdom modifier (mod for 16 is 3), so folks entering the target area must make a DC 14 Reflex save or be entangled.
Nox steps back 10' and casts a spell. As you watch, the grass and weeds in front of the hut begin to grow amazingly fast, becoming thick and trying to ensnare your legs.

The cauldron is successfully caught by the sudden growth of vines and struggles to free itself. Tearing some of the plants free, it fights against the grasping leaves and moves toward the druid again, but is unable to attack this round.
Blaring out a great and feral roar of anger, frustration, and rage, I swing my axe down at the cauldron with as much force as I can muster.

damage if applicable
With a mighty clang, Gilgar drives his Large waraxe into lip of the big kettle and clear down into the ground. Above of the shriek of metal-on-metal, there's another shriek - almost human, very angry - that fades away as the breeze picks up.
As the party stands there, panting a little from the exertion, you realize that the sounds of the forest can be heard. It's almost like they were waiting to see if you would prevail.
The cauldron, its magic gone, begins to corrode visibly. You're guessing by the end of the week, there will be very little left of it.
"We still need what the witch had."
Nox starts back towards the hut with Perrin in his wake
Nodding to Gilgar as he passes
"Well finished my Dwarven friend, you are truly a mighty warrior with that axe of yours."
Running up with club in hand, Laucian's heavy breathing can hardly be heard as Gilgar made he yell. Seeing the distruction Gilgar provided to the coldren, Laucian drops the club placing his hands on his knees to catch his breath.
"Well don Gilgar." Hearing Nox and seeing him go inside, "Now don't be bring out another one of those."
Standing over the newly sundered cauldron, gasping great lung-fulls of air as my arms slowly lower to my sides as the tension slowly leaves my body.
"Strange..." gasp "Things... never..." wheezing, I sink to one knee "look... small..." pant "after..." I look around at the others, bewildered. "Do I" still breathing heavily "look different?"
The hut is crammed full of material. You know what you are looking for , but it may take some time to find it.
Here are my Skill Checks.

The animal companions still do not appear to want to enter the hut, but they will at least stick their heads in now to watch their elven companions rather than pacing back and forth like before.
Now closer to the hut, Laucian decides to investigate; however with what last came out of the hut, he doesn't want to enter completely. Walking up to the door, he sticks his head in. Giving his eye time to adjust, he then scans the room for anything that has to do with the arcane magics or about the local geography or history.

Receiving no response from the longer eared around me, I will just stay on one knee until I regain my energy. I will not enter the hut.
Laucian turns back to Gilgar, "You look... a little different. It looks like you gained a few pounds. Don't worry though. I bet you will lose them in now time." Laucain turns back to continue looking in the hut.
The elves search the hut carefully, wary of additional surprises, while the illusionist leans in and watchs from the door. The dwarf catches his breath in the clearing, watching and watched by the fetish-men that spooked the mage.
After a minute or two of waiting for the elves to announce they've found the tail of a rat or whatever nonsense they seek, Gilgar has a moment of disorientation as he sees the hut and Laucian grow in size! In fact, the little stick men are twice the size they were just a moment ago!
For the elves: There must be a decades' worth of dust laid over a century's worth of detritus and arcane minutiae, but you note nothing of value. Finally, after disturbing far more dust than you would like - considering what that dust might be made up of - Sylvanis locates a healthy-sized, dried-out root that Nox quickly identifies as Rat's Tail.
"Have ye found what we seek already?" Standing, shaking my head, squinting around at my surroundings. "I don't like the blasted place. It stinks of witchcraft..."
"Have ye found what we seek already?" Standing, shaking my head, squinting around at my surroundings. "I don't like the blasted place. It stinks of witchcraft..."
After you stand out and study your surroundings, all appears to be keeping its current size which, truth be told, seems more normal than just a moment ago. It's like everything shrunk while you were in your rage.
