"Alright, now things get interesting!" Novennia exclaims, stepping into the room and taking a swing at the closest enemy. "Evening, gents! Glad to see we get to fight you now instead of the vermin you've been leaving for us. Most fortunate!"
Novennia quite literally decapitates the first tiefling.
The Eidolon moves forward and performs a brutal slice, one aimed at severing the limb of an unfortunate tiefling...
attack
damage
The Eidolon is able to hit the tiefling with ease and the blood loss from the loss of an arm is enough to kill it.
The two remaining tieflings fire crossbow bolts at the party. One wings Novennia.
Del acrobatics into the room and gets into flanking position.
Hello goodbye.
Delgata manages a complicated acrobatics move and gets into perfect position to deliver a blow but manages to just glance his attack off the tiefling.
Brand enters the room, shocked to see the aftermath of Novennia's charge. He chokes back the bile rising in his throat as Del rolls in and glances his mace of another of the Tiefling's skulls.
Seeing a clear shot at one of their foes, he calls up the burning in his blood and channels it into his palm, then hurls the ball of flame at the Tiefling.
HP: 13/13
AC: 17
1st lvl: 1/5
3/7 Elemental Ray
Brand fires at the tiefling but sadly misses, the fire smashing into the wall behind him.
The two tieflings still standing firte bolts but both miss their intended targets.
"Well, can't say I didn't offer," Novennia shrugs, manoeuvring up to the next tiefling. "I hate to do this, but it's for the good of the town!" She gives another mighty swing, aiming for a quick finish.
attack
damage
A lot of bodies are now trying to fit into quite a small room and it is clearly hampering people's swings.
Yix, Novennia and the Eidolon fail to connect with any of the tieflings.
Frustrated at missing, Brand hurls another ball of flame at one of the Tieflings while attempting to get a clear shot through all his friends.
attack with flank
Krokod isn't sure what's happening, but he sees Neb give him an opening, and says 'Thanks'...well, actually he says thanks in firespeak, but the intention is there.
Remember they are resistant to fire, beat them up with your club...
Krokod smiles,
When the opportunity presents itself, he'll take neb's advice and swing a club at the nearest of the tieflings.
Krokod takes a mighty swing with his club and takes out the unharmed tiefling with ease. Unfortunately his companions conspire to miss the remaining tiefling with all of their efforts.
The injured tiefling fires his crossbow but misses you all.
Swing again with flank for extra backstabbing damage.
If I get an AOO from him firing a Ranged weapon in melee.
You don't know how but the tiefling manages to avoid your blows. They're close - but not close enough.
Krokod tries another overhand swing on his foe
Finally someone connects with the remaining tiefling, and his life is ended.
You find nothing of note in the room. Each tiefling has hide armour and a crossbox, 20 bolts and a short sword if you care to carry them.
You continue around the corner (you figure you've completed a large upside down 'U' underground.
Ahead are a couple of doors. The first is at ground level and the final one is up another flight of stairs.
"Looks like they've occupied the whole block. Seems to be a bigger operation than we thought, be on guard, this could get dangerous."
"I fear nothing as long as I have my trusty club..." Krokod says, then smiles, "Okay, I fear a lot even with a trusty club. Who wants to take lead?"
Neb calmly points at Delgata...
We would be wise to let the fool go first...
Krokod tisks,
Then turns to Delgata, "Would you like to scout ahead, Delgata?"
No, but I will anyway. By the way I understand that funny language the two of you go on and on in.
Del will scout ahead sneaking and searching for traps.
There are no obvious traps ahead - neither door appears locked, so you have a simple choice.
"What is that language, anyway?" Novennia asks of Krokod, partly in annoyance, but mostly in genuine curiosity. When Del reports the lack of traps and locks, she shrugs. "Well, I say up the stairs, same order as before. Seems to be working well."
Krokod grins at Delgata's claim.
Then later turns to Noeva's suggestion, "Sounds fine by me."
The door looks just like the others. With the rest of the group lined up behind her Novennia listens at the door. When there is no sound, she opens the door.
You are in a much larger room than any of the other buildings. This looks to be some kind of barracks; several simple bunk beds take up space in the corners of the room. A wooden door similar to the one outside the crypt stands shut on the west wall.
Facing you are four tieflings, the creature you presumed was a mummy previously and perhaps the creature that made all of those claw marks - it's tiefling but significantly larger than average and it has massive hands with massive claws at the end of them.
The regular tieflings are armed with crossbows and short-swords, the others appear unarmed.
Tiefling #1 = 10
Tiefling #2 = 10
Tiefling #3 = 10
Tiefling #4 = 10
Mummy = 11
The digger = 16
Nervously Del sees the mummy and shaking he swings his mace.
He turns to Korkod and makes noises like he makes in that funny language. Del apparently is giving tactics for the fight out with you and is getting ready to do something.
Yix casts a spell on the large tiefling - and it seems entranced by his words. Neb delays any actions and the creature seems incapable of any proactive activity.
Delgata draws his mace - and immediately the large tiefling breaks from his trance.
Wary of the exploding melee, Brand takes a quick step back out of immediate range and makes a quick judgement on how the fight is developing.
Calling forth his inner magic and an uttered word, the ground produces a slippery oil under the feet of the two closest enemies.
Brand is able to cast his spell. The mummy seems to be unsure of his footing but remains on his feet, the digger seems totally unaffected.
The four tieflings fire their crossbow bolts - two manage to hit Brand.
Finally the mummy raises one of its hands and magical energy darts forth from its fingertips and strikes the Eidolon.
damn it!
Krokod's crackling voice sends forth a blessing over all.
Neb vengefully lifts up his loaded crossbow and takes aim for the large tiefling... His voice shifts to raging Ignan...
Kill the spellcaster and butcher the rest!
attack
damage
Del barks out more words in the language Neb and Korkod know.
Sounds like gibberish "tulips horse piano butter boot smiles."
Hefting her greatsword, Novennia points at the large tiefling. "Hellspawn! I challenge you to single combat! Attack my allies, and it shall be your undoing!" With that, she rushes at him, swinging her sword in a mighty arc.
A crossbow bolt whizzes from Neb's bow but misses the large tiefling but Novennia fares better. She swings her sword in an extravagant arc but to great effect, taking a huge lump out of the creature. It's still standing but rocks on its heels.
Yix casts a spell
