Innulamane tries to confirm its grip on the creature to fly up with it.
Confirming its grip he flies up 80ft.
Issa calls for Horus healing power and a, tiny, wave of positive energy flow through all, avoiding his ennemies.
May Horus give you Faith and Strength
Then he flies up to be out of reach of the hounds and their handler.
Cindy cackles and begins casting Enlarge Person.
Seeing the hounds adjust with the snap of the whip, Cormick focuses on disabling it's powers.
If the object that you target is a magic item, you make a dispel check against the item's caster level (DC = 11 + the item's caster level). If you succeed, all the item's magical properties are suppressed for 1d4 rounds, after which the item recovers its magical properties. A suppressed item becomes nonmagical for the duration of the effect. An interdimensional opening (such as a bag of holding) is temporarily closed. A magic item's physical properties are unchanged: A suppressed magic sword is still a sword (a masterwork sword, in fact). Artifacts and deities are unaffected by mortal magic such as this.
Hezrog steps to I3 and fully attacks the hound adjacent to him and Aerin, switching his study from the other hound to this one.
(Fortune will go on the last attack, as will the bull rush)
Auto miss nat1
Bull rush = 30
Round 2
From the ground Aerin will continue to attack the dog in front of her while some of her wounds closes from the wave of positive Energy
Current Prone AC 29
----
Rolling the Fortune Hex on the first attack
Innulamane carries the demon up into the air as Issa soothes everyones wounds.
Aerin's scarf cuts deep into the shoulder of the second hound, but her second attack misses. Hezrog then knocks the beast backwards ten feet with a pair of shield slams.
Cormick casts dispel magic on the hunt masters whip, though it is not clear if anything changed.
The hunt master continues to ply his whip to tripping, first to Hezrog, knocking him prone, then taking a 5' step towards Cormick and doing the same to him.
The hound rushes at Aerin again, pouncing, and sinks its teeth into her.
While the other tries to get at the roc carrying it aloft.
Cindy's spell goes off and Hezrog grows to a large size. She cackles to maintain the fortune hexes.
Wanting to get some distance between the Hunt Master and himself, Cormick casts a new spell he has been thinking about lately, as this seems like a perfect opportunity.
Hezrog stands, stepping into squares (I,J; 2,3) before attacking once with his mainhand.
He will decline to bull rush.
Edit: AC vs the AOO is 22 including prone and enlarge
Round 3
Again bitten on the shoulder Aerin will focus her weapon attack on the dog that is trying to grapple and rake her to death and she also unleash a spall at him
Vs Dog
Current Prone AC 29 CMD 24
Hezrog slams the hound again and it crumples to the ground unconscious. The hunt master tries to strike him with his whip as he stands, but does not connect.
Issa says Bombard the two legs standing creature ! to Innulamane.
Then he flies to Aerin and casts a healing spell on her.
At its master's orders, Innulamane flies over the hunt master and tries to drop the hound on it.
Innulamane drops the demonic hound, which lets out a high pitched howl. The hunt master steps to the side at the last moment, and the unfortunate beast slams into the hard ground, bones jutting out from its skin in a bloody mass.
The hunt master drops its whip, and with an angry scream bites and claws at Hezrog savagely.
Cindy uses her Healing Hex to heal Aerin and then continues her cackle.
Issa command Innulamane to charge the last creature.
Charge ! then he fly around Aerin ready to cast a heal spell if she's badly hit by the creature.
Innulamane at its master's order, charge from the sky the creature !
Mostly enraged from the poison, Hezrog unleashes a full attack.
Confirm on bash 2:
Round 4
With the whip dropped, Cormick maneuvers wound the demon to position himself in a flank with Hezrog, then cautiously attempts to aid Hezrog's next attack.
Round 4
All her wounds patched up by both Issa and cindy Aerin now on her feet moves to fight the huntmaster
Current AC 30
With the aid of the fortune hex, Hezrog avoids the poisons effect, and lays into the demon with his shields, striking twice.
The demons hard skin absorbs a good portion of each blow.
Aerin's bladed scarf cuts into the creature with ease.
Innulamane grapples the demon, but his claws seem unable to pierce the tough hide.
The demon turns its teeth and claws on the roc.
Innulamane tried to maintain his grip on the creature, this time with all his might.
Cindy uses her misfortune hex to lower the demon's to hit by 2. She continues to cackle and 5' steps to look down into the cave.
Round 5
Once more Comrick tries to distract the demon, helping Hezrog's successful attack.
Hezrog will full attack into the flank, attempting to capitalize on this advantage. (power attack, sneak attack)
Fortune: Reroll last attack
Hezrog's first attack knocks the creature out.
Most demons can teleport at will. I do not think we can hold it if it regains consciousness. I say kill it.
"I have no means of keep a demon from teleporting aware if you want to question it, so me might as well dispatch it."
At the instruction of his allies, Hezrog continues to attack after the demon falls.
That force looked like a scouting team to me. I think we should be prepared for additional conflict soon.
Cindy nods as she peers into the dark tunnel and continues to cackle.
The demons defeated, the main body of the army arrives shortly, following Athar to the ridge.
The captain immediately deploys thirty soldiers to take up a watch.
"Better take a look at this hole you've found, see if we can do something to cave it in, or block it up."
That is precisely what i had suggested and done earlier today she says to no one in particular in an "I told you so" smile
she turns toward the party so where to? do you want me to do some scouting
We first need to secure our climb down cause its a long one
I may be missing something Aerin. Why go down the tunnel in to the realm of the drow? Or even into the cave at all for that matter. Is it not better to wait for the enemy at the cave entrances?
Captain Ceyz deploys three engineers and a group of armed men to go take a look at the pit, and see if they can further block the way through. The engineers take ropes, pitons, picks, and other equipment as they think they might need.
"What about the rest of this cavern? Are there other passages we need to secure as well? Or do you wish to rest till morning?"
At the entrance of that cave i took the first passage, Following that passage leads to a ledge. A deep chasm sits between the ledge and another cliff face 10' away. The ledge runs east for about 15' before ending, dropping into the chasm. I found the Scout there. Without a secure means of climbing the cliff though further tracking on your own part does not seem feasible.
the passage twists and turns, but generally continues westward and upward.
Several hundred yards later the passage splits into two main branches. The cold breeze flows from the right passage, while the air of the left passage is still. We took the takes the left fork.
It travels a short distance then begins to descend downward slightly. Another 80' feet Traveling another 40' before tunnel widens a bit more.
The left most passage turns sharply downwards after only a short distance, dropping deeper into the mountain. The central passage runs a short distance then veers sharply to the south.
The northern passage only runs about 20' before ending in a dead end
The south passage leads to the underdark. The north is a dead end. The middle one we were not yet done exploring, but it is a long and twisting passage. We found several cave fishers that way, there may be more, further along, or other denizens.
Now down the pit we blocked with rocks etc. The other Passage fron the entrance After droping 200 ft coming to a more stable flooring. The cavern splits into 7 different passages. A brief exploration down six of them shows narrow and winding paths. A humanoid could pass further through them, but would have some tight spots. An army could pass through them one at a time, though bringing a large volume of supplies through would prove very time consuming. The seventh is a wide passage running west. The hard rock floor provides no clues of passage from drow or other creatures. While the upper caves have been dry, down here the air is damp and the walls slightly moist. But is guarded by a Destrachan who are cunning hunters, and can cause a sonic explosion of sorts dealing heaving damage, or stunning those in the blast. Or at least i am thinking it is guarding this area as there is really nothing to hunt. I managed to get a ver close glimp. The passage enters into a larger chamber, a natural grotto. Pools of water beneath stalactites. Two more passages branch off of the cavern on this side, but the north side of the cavern extends beyond
Captain Ceyz takes in the information. "Probably best to wait till morning then. We'll make sure that first hole is sealed nice and good tonight though."
The night passes without further incident. In the morning the captain calls out twenty men, along with himself, to help explore more of the cave.
I am fine with doing more scouting right now captain, how about the rest of us ? she ask the group ?
I'm Ok with that. I will pray for new spell as our ennemies were not what I expected. said Issa
"I have to problem going in as a group."
