Mai repeats
then hides again
Gregor decides he is best used offering respite from the attacks, given his only chance of hurting the thing lies in using his shield as a fairly ineffectual weapon. As such, he sheathes his sword, and draws his wand of healing.
The deamon finally goes down.
Crain falls out of his rage, and nearly falls to the ground. "Pretty impressive, right Pai? You saw me stand toe to toe with that awful daemon," he says as he tries to smile, huffing in between each word. He felt worse than he looked, if possible.
Donagar breaks out both a flagon of ale and a crafted wand of cure light wounds....
"Who needs what?"
"A beer and about all the healing you have should do me nicely, doc," Crain again flashes his wicked bloody grin.
Mai comes out from behind the pillar, putting away her bow.
"I could not quite see you fight it as you were out of my line of sight Crain-san."
"I was quite impressive...trust me on that, young lady!"
Horribly embarrassed at his performance, Drakus mumbled "Yes, a little healing please."
Donagar begins doling out healing and sips of ale...

Crain stretched, still out of breath. "Just give me another minute or so, and I'll be all fresh and full of vigor again! Don't listen to what everyone else says about you, Donegar...you are all right in my book," Crain laughs as he slaps the dwarf on the back.
"Magical sticks an elixirs err mah stock an trade, iffen only we could get o Gregor tah sing drinkin songs now an then."
Surveys the others through the lenses of his deathwatch goggles to see who else needs assistance......
"Any other takers?"
"I could us some." Mai replies.
Donagar hands off the ale to Mai and starts using his wand on her...
"Thanks, Donagar-san."
Drakus needs another 42hp to get to full.
Donagar notes Drakus ...
Drakus sighed with relief.
"Thanks Donagar."
He looked around.
"Now where did that doctor go?"
The doctor lies in a heap in the center of the room his lifeforce drained, his necked snapped and covered in flies.
"Now thas a surprise, tha question is who kilt him?"
"That daemon what almost did us in had his way with the doctor. I didn't feel bad enough about it to intervene, to be honest."
Drakus frowned, trying to think.
"OK, the orders were to 'Arrest or kill everyone here, and most importantly secure Doctor Davalous and his notes.'"
He rubbed his stubbled chin.
"If that's the Doctor down there, where are his notes? Is there an office around here?"
Gregor and Mai have already secured most of his notes. Searching his body you find the rest of them.

Right so I assume you press on?

"Looks lik ware ready tah seee bout tha rest o this business."
"Let's clear the rest of this joint out. Nothing but evil doers so far...I don't expect anything different in the rest of this place!"
The long hall opens into a circular chamber rising into a high dome. Seven basins jut from the walls, ensconced within evenly spaced alcoves that circle the room. Each is filled to the brim with a unique liquid corruption—blood, bile, milk, or other unidentifiable fluid. Each fills the air with its own distinct reek, creating a noxious, eyewatering bouquet. Upon the floor around each basin lie several small, empty metal boxes, each carved with images of skulls. At the room’s center, rising from a wide pool of crystalline water, rises a golden statue of a sight both erotic and horrifying. The statue is that of a beautiful nude woman, human above the waist, but below this the figure is nothing more than a skeleton.
A woman meditates in the room as you enter she greet you with an icy smile ash she rises.
"And so you defeated the deamon and have found your way to me, hopeful heroes. Know that you stand before the architect of your city’s death. You call this sending blood veil, yet I know it as the gentle kiss of the Pallid Princess. Your reward shall be great—choose of the seven scourges to become one with the goddess. Those who drink, I shall only cripple, leaving you alive to enjoy her as she quickens inside your flesh. Those who abstain are fools, not fit to house the divine gift. You may prostrate yourselves at my feet and I shall make your end all the more swift for it. Swifter, in any event, than this delightful end your lovely queen has enjoined me to create!"
"No thanks, sugar. I've already tasted the plague enough for one man so far today. And I'm a might bit pissed off about it. Let's get to this," Crain growls as he moves to engage the priestess.
Init.
"Any chance we could all jus be friends an get a drink at the mermaids arms instead?"
Donagar takes in the scene the horrible fluids none that he would want to see pass anyone's lips.......
"Your Pallid Princess is just an ugly hag, who has issues."
Mai mores to I-10.
The woman sneers in anger at your defiance. She floats up to the center statue and lands in it's outstretched hands 10 feet above the ground."You worthless worms how dare you defy my lady. You should all bow down before me!"
Her words are enspelled by magic and you feel compelled to do just that. Greater command commanding you all to bow down. You all make a Will save dc 19 or spend your round bowing down to her. This continues for 9 rounds, you get a new save each round.
Everyone else can post.
