A ray of light blasts from Benedict's palm at Balator's skeletal opponent.
The bony foe appears highly resistant to Uuranx's slashing weapon but not to the insane amount of damage that he deals in the second round. It collapses in a fetid heap. Balator badly wounds his mortal opponent and the ray of light from Benedict's palm does significant damage to the other
The three men evade the gnashing ant as a swarm of black tentacles burrows out of the floor. The ant is grappled and crushed to death and two of the men are grappled and crushed. The third man evades and charges forward to attack Uuranx.

Benedict unleashes another blast of light at Balator's skeletal opponent.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
The charging monk is opposed by Uuranx's falchion and the falchion wins the contest as his shattered form falls to the ground. Balator is only able to connect with a single blow, but it is enough to end the life of the monk while the skeletal creature staggers but does not drop as another blast of holy light hits it. Randtam fires of a brace of magic missiles at one of the skeletal creatures in the distance; his tentacles continue to crush the life out of the grappled men.

The screech emitting skeletons stay at the edge of the tentacles confused as to how to get past them.
Party action. Randtam let me know if you want to use your potion drinking post above or if you want to do something else.
Did my missile do damage?

The last two melee opponents are laid low and the remaining skeletal creatures flee into the darkness.
The men continue to be grappled and crushed by Randtam's tentacle spell and will die unless you decide otherwise.
***end of combat***
Pointing at the guys being crushed to death.
"Do we want to try questioning any of these guys?"

You might have a little more patience than me...
I can save one right before he dies and Uuranx can ask questions and them kill him. Or maybe Benedict has some very pointed questions for this individual. Time is of the essence.

I have no questions for this filth. Let's send them to my Mistress for judgement and set to with some healing before we continuing on cleansing this place. We need to find Count Galdana and stop the Way from executing their plans.

Benedict pulses healing energy twice
The men (6 total) all had +1 amulet of might fists and +1 rings of protection. The skeletons had nothing of value.
The general area appears to be a series of monastic cells including the small rooms running along the hallway leading South. The hallway continues on into darkness and what appears to be a flight of stairs leading down into another area. You are not exactly sure where the skeletons fled to, but you believe it was to the South.
Party action
Head south unless someone has a better idea.

CLW wand on Balator before we move on.
Benedict, what do you think? Look around through a bunch of rooms or trail the stench of death? What do you think is the fastest way to Count Galdana?
Randtam looks pensively at his companions.
If we tarry we will allow the defenders of this place to prepare. If we push forward we may catch some unawares, although I would guess those mohrgs will alert anyone or any THING close. So let's not rush into traps and ambushes, but let's not dawdle looking in every nook and cranny. The Count will certainly be at the heart of this nest of evil and well guarded. If we had time I would come back with others from my Order and rain holy fire down on this place until it was fully cleansed.
Any other action or head South?
Grab the loot and head south.
The hallway continues for almost 100' before a flight of stairs descends 10' into a room filled with tremendously complicated alchemical equipment. The equipment crowds the wooden tables in this chamber, while condensing some thick, black fluid. Iron spikes impale several drained corpses to the walls, their bodies sprouting leaky hoses filled with vile ichor.
The room runs about 70' E/W and at the far Eastern side of the room there is a door.
Pointing: "Is that a brain and a pair of eyes? This place is bizarre beyond reckoning."
I do believe there should be a bonus for the Eyes of Randtamra.
What knowledge check do I need?
Listening to Balators words.A brain and a pair of eyes? Let me think.
Randtam stops the group before they come off the last couple of stairs-Hssst! Those tanks with the brains in them are some type of alchemical golem. I've never seen one before, but there was a diagram in a tome on golem construction I read once. Be careful!
Randtam gives everyone all knowledge he knows about Golems in general. Making sure he gives only the most pertinent information to aid his friends.
And my expertise knowledge about Alchemical Golems.
Once Balator point out what he sees and given what else is in the room, Randtam figures that someone or something is using the golems to do the heavy and dangerous labor in this room. Where this controlling force resides currently is anyone's guess.
Party action.
Move to the door on the far side of the room.
As Balator advances into the room for a moment his keen eyes see the shimmering outline of something under the influence of an invisibility spell on the far side of the room by the door.
The golems animate and move in to attack!

A pair of alchemical bombs come flying in from the far E. side of the room targeting Balator
Party action.
The bombs don't harm Balator unless they are touch attacks or if there is splash damage?
"There is someone or something invisible by the far door!"

Usually there would be splash damage from such an attack, but the vials are being thrown with such precision that there is no splash effect.

Did not know.
Apparently Randtam does not have the knowledge he thought.
Cast grease under golems and a nvisible guy.
Watch invisible guy. What is it?
Uuranx takes and Balator takes damage from splattering fluids as their blows strike true. Both constructs look badly damaged.
Randtam creates a slippery surface under the construct fighting Uranx and it falls prone in a crash of wheels, glass and gears.
It tries to rise but is unable to find purchase on the slippery floor.
On Balator:
A pair of bombs sails in from the far side of the room targeting Uuranx
Destroy the golem.

I have Blindsense 30'.
Can I attack invisible guy with penalties?
Randtam using Randtam and his magic missiles show Uuranx where invisible guy is.
Also what is invisible guy?

I have Blindsense 30'.
Can I attack invisible guy with penalties?
Given that Randtam has now seen the foe and visibly fired some MM at it, yes. Move action to get into melee and one attack only this round.
Sounds good
Randtam sees his missiles drain away harmlessly as they impact on some type of magical shield that protects a gaunt skeletal figure covered in a thin layer of dry leathery skin and pale blue lights where its eyes once were. The undead creature is finely dressed, including a well crafted cloak and a bandolier filled with what looks like various alchemical components.
Uuranx uses the spell energies impact to zero in on the target, letting his innate senses get him close, but his blade is thwarted by the creatures defense.
Balator knocks his golem permanently out of commission with a ferocious fusillade of sword strokes.
The remaining construct flounders about pathetically on the greasy floor, unable to find a firm fundament to rise from.
Something invisible smashes at Uuranx:
DC 19 FORT or permanently paralyzed (1 roll per round of successful attack).
