The Vampire turns it's steely will against Donagar's playful god, but to no avail, as the wave of holy energy washes over the vampire, strips of flesh peel back from it and it howls in pain.
Drakus takes the opportunity to attack as the vampire reels in pain, drawing a line down it, with his glaive, it falls heavily to the ground, lifeless.
As that one falls, you hear rustling from thebodies hear the wall as they explode outward.
Reflex save (DC15) for Marra and Gregor to avoid the tumbling corpses, (failure will obviously expose them to Bloodveil.) as two more monsters appears in a crumbled part of the wall.
Order:
Nik'o
Marra
Gregor
Mai
Donagar (channeling 14dmg)
Vampires
Reflex:
Marra just narrowly avoids the tumbling corpses as she stops one with her blade as the others tumble into it.
"Oh crap, More of them"
Gregor, more prepared after the last surprise, manages to turn away from the corpses as they burst forth, protecting his face and other exposed skin from contact with them.
Nik'o curses as her spell seem to have no grip on the vampire. Necromancy... It figures!
Her sigh of relief as the undead crashes to the floor is cut short by the explosion of corpses. She twists and extends a finger forth, drawing on a simple, yet effective incantation: "Dirotto!" Three shafts of ebony spring forth and fly directly in the torso of the closest beast.
map was posted last page...
"Anyone know their weaknesses?"
oops marras turn...work kicks my butt during the week, I'll post Marra's action in hte AM...
Donagar if you're going to stick with the second channel, you're action is good, everyone else can act, I'll post a summary when everyone states what they're doing. the vamps are near Marra at the wall.
Marra realizing she needs a weapon in hand, drops the crossbow, and looses her longsword from its sheath and unslings her shield, as she drops into a defensive stance.
The three bolts from Nik'os' spell slam into the chest of the vampire closest to Marra.
"You die last witch" it hisses...
"Not if we stake you first, blood sucker."
Gregor takes a swing at the nearest one, backing away as he does so, trying to get at least a little space between him and the draining touch they have. His light ensorcelled blade swinging before him makes it hard for him to tell if he connected or not before he stepped back.
Assuming the new vampires are not in the area of a channel.
Donagar moves forwards to see the new threat.
Donagar seeing the foes.....
"Mia, Drakus, Nik'o ready to splash holy water!"
Channels positive energy
Sgt. Drakus steps to (e,11) and power attacks the southern vamp.
Bardiche Power attack: for a possible cutting damage.
Gregor and Drakus bout step up to the vampires, striking at them but connecting with nothing but the shattered wall of the building, causing a bit more mortar to crumble into the space as more of Cayden's holy energy washes over the pair of vampires. Nik'o prepares to hurl another magical bolt at the vampire, as they duck into the building. (Round 2 over, Nik'o that's your third round action.)
Marra strides into the building, Shield up, sword at the ready."Be Careful, the other one is missing!!!" She shouts.
"It ain't missing girl its hidin!"
Donagar peers into the dark area concerned for his friends who can not see as the vampires see in the darkness.
"Full defense and fall back! We need tah get tah tha temple."
"If their is one left, I think we should kill it while we have a chance."
"If need be you could give us a light, Right?"
"No Dwarf! We leave now, these blood suckers will be long gone by the time we get help...you flee if that's what your god would do, mine would fight...." as Marra spits her words at Donagar.
Gregor waves his still lit sword from when he used it earlier to look at the bodies. "Marra's right, we can't allow them to get away, or they could turn out to be just as much of a plague on our dear city, as the one we currently deal with. Drakus, you right behind me? I'll lead with the light as it were." He steels himself, takes a deep breath, and makes to enter the hole in the side of the building.
Hesitating outside, Sgt. Drakus swears intensely and at great length.
Chasing a vamp into a darkened building was probably the worse idea he had ever heard of.
But splitting up was even worse than that; and he would hack his own head off rather than abandon his unit.
Cautiously he enters the building with the others.
"Onward then!"
Casts light on Drakus shield.....
She follows cautiously,
The vampire grins and turns to mist, reminding you of the fog outside...
"Holy water'el tear right intah em even as a mist. I think we better stock up."
"Holy water'el tear right intah em even as a mist. I think we better stock up."
Gregor pushes the fight forward into the building. Swinging at the one visible vampire remaining.
Drakus nods his thanks at Donagar for providing the light on his shield. Still he quietly swore under his breath as he tried to stay in formation, covering whatever flank he was on.
"Where the hell are they?"
Perception:
Round 5 is entering the building, the first vampire disappeared in round 3 the second turned to mist as its action for round 4, we're still in rounds unless you want to drop your guard...Marra stopped as she advanced, dropping into a defensive stance waiting for the others to enter. (she was counting on Iomedae protecting her.)
** spoiler omitted **
Yeah, you're right, subtract 1 round, so it's round 4...I had written 4 and 3 before, then changed it...So Rnd 4. Problem with PbP, sometimes rounds get convoluted, and even after running for 2 years, still easy to get confused.
If you guys add a (round 1 action, or round 2 action at the top of your post, it would help everyone keep better track, since I was waiting for someones round 2 action and someone else had already posted a round 3 action.)
You quickly survey the room, seeing dozens of crooked glass eyes, hollow and crazed, glare from the head of malformed and half-carved dolls lining the shelves of this workroom. A Door lies to the north, and a trap door is visible in the floor. A dessicated corpse lies in the corner.
