"Ouch." Darius complains.
"Stam, do something!"
Another guard comes and swings his sword at Grergof.

Spugnoir throws a grease bomb at one guard each, making sure his allies are not affected
Stam rolls up his sleeves on his robes, "Clear the area!" Stam says as he invokes powerful arcane words, as the last syllable leaves his lips a large bubble of black comes up out of the stones around the guards feet, tentacles sprout from them to grapple the guards.
The remaining guards move out of the area of the tentacles, standing in line with their companions to help them out if necessary.
The two guards bombed by Spugnoir slip and fall prone.
So be it.
Grergof refreshes himself and then opens up with his Flail.
Grergof targets the guard in front of him and moves on to the second guard if the first one drops.
Grergof opens with a hard hit, but loses out on the follow ups. But the lucky streak of the guards is over too. They get up and try to attack, but they don't find an opening.
Darius is not so lucky. He has to take another hit.
"Keep the bombs coming! Or whatever magic ye have to roast them!" Darius tells.
The other guard tries some attacks that are futile in their result.
Stam pulls out his crossbow, cocking the mechanism back and loading an arrow.

Grergof repeats what he did last round since there are a whole host of targets in front of him.
Grergof targets the hurt guard in front of him and moves on to a second guard if the first one drops.
Darius calls down holy energy to punish these at least non-good guards. He makes sure to keep Spugnoir and Stam out of the downpour of light, just to be sure. "Take that scum!"
Grergof beats another one into oblivion and wounds the next. Darius' casting hits all of the guards, but from the result one could conclude that they are not that evil.
The other guard feels the need to hit Grergof some more, before he becomes the next to be taken out of the equation.
Spugnoir wins!

Stam takes aim with his crossbow again.
Loading it agian afterwards. "I need to get wand of some sort for meaningless baddies like this." Stam says with a grin
Spugnoir bombs two guys, leaving one staggered and the other also badly wounded. Stam ends the one with his life on a thread.
Darius swings his sword, but he's never been too great with that and it won't improve in this fight.
The guards don't seem to care, that their companions pile up dead already. They continue to fight as if there were no other option.
I wonder if the fools are charmed? Anyone should have run by now.
Grergof continues to battle his way thorough the guards.
Minor action LoH on self. Full action to bash the guards on him.
Grergof targets the hurt guard in front of him and moves on to the last guard if the first one drops.
If a guard drops, then the remaining attacks are +1 additional to Hit and Damage from Deadly Juggernaught, I also increase to DR 6/--
Grergof gets into a flow dealing out damage. He drops another guard and wounds the last one.
Darius tries some more with the sword. It's not much, but it's honest work.
Spugnoir passes, not wanting to expend any more resources.
Stam Takes another shot hoping to end this quickly.
Darius hitsthe guard hard. But not good enough to drop him. Stam shoots the armor sending the bolt as ricochet through the room. The last guard continues to attack unfazed by the circumstances that are not in his favor.
"Maybe my luck is running out?" Stam says loading and firing his crossbow again.
Grergof steps up and tries to put the beat down on the last guard.
But his aim is clearly off as he trys to find firm footing among all the bodies.
The guard can't take any more beatings and kicks the bucket.

Darius steps away from the wrestling tentacles and back to the storehouse. "Oh, man. They did quite a number on my health! Anyone else in need of a healing prayer?" he asks.
Once all who need have joined he raises his holy symbol and speaks the traditional words to ask Iomedae to bless them.
"You're good?" he asks his companions.
"I am ok, I could use some of those bolts though to replenish the ones I used and for a spell of mine." Stam says looking the room over.
Yes, drink the potions Spugnoir takes two
Stam looks around the room for magic as well.
"Lets block off the main entrance door that way someone cannot get in there, 2 rooms the the south we should check then do we head up or down?" Stam asks the party
I feel fine. Let's continue on quickly before the blessings from Sarenrae fade from me. We can look in all the corners once we get rid of any threats.
As soon as they are healed Grergof prays for a moment over his flail to make it glow (Divine bond, Turns him main Flail into a +4 Flail for 12 minutes.) then he peeks into the next room through the open archway.
Darius helps himself to a bottle of magic health juice.
"It's a good thing you're into bashing down baddies and their allies." Darius follows Grergof, with his sword in hand.
The square room behind the passage is the base of the bell tower of Sante Lymirin. A set of stone stairs winds along the walls of this square tower. In the center of the roof, long ropes descend through a perfectly round hole about a foot in diameter.
Eh...Let us avoid climbing up for now.
We know the vampire is down below so I agree.
He moves over to the next door. Watch my back.
Grergof opens and the doors and peeks into the rooms one at a time, just looking to make sure there are no other people still around.
The first room is a workroom. A large piece of parchment lies on a table, bearing a crude drawing of the abbey grounds. There are several markings on the map.
A large fireplace dominates the southern half of this kitchen. Wooden cabinets line the west and northeast walls, while a butcher’s block takes up the center of the room.
This unusually cool chamber is filled with a heavy, cloying fog. This room contains all of the perishable foodstuffs.
No enemies, I say we go down.
If nobody objects Grergof leads the group down the stairs.
Going down the northern flight of stairs, you come down to a wide corridor leading to a crossing. To the left a large double door. To the right a corridor leading to a large room. And straight ahead comes a pale light from a natural cavern , covered in luminescent lichen.
