Shuddering from the feeling of being restrained in this horrid place.

Does anyone else have the sense of hopelessness and hear chains? There is something here once again, the question is what?

Shol'a'saul stares at the oracle, a confused look on her face. She reaches into her pouch to grab another haunt siphon, and responds "I do not sense anything, could you point out where you are feeling these emotions from?"

Aerys shudders as he carefully scans the room. "I feel nothing worse than my normal pessimism, but I don't doubt your feelings. Perhaps this was some sort of holding area for prisoners, but what were they awaiting?"

"I suspect there is another haunt here. Be on your guard."

"I can feel it. It's like I've been chained and left here with no hope of escape."

Ricven steps forward, weapon drawn as he walks further into the room, trying find the source of this misery.

"This entire place is a den of bondage and misery. Not that some folk didn't deserve it," Venedictos adds, patting the collection of holy symbols in his belt pouch.

As you enetr the room, everyone hears chains rattling as several sets of manacles fly off the floor and walls and attack the party.

Anyone whowants can roll iniative. I will be back on this afternoon and will roll for those left.

Ricven you take 1 pt of damage

The manacles flail about wildly managing only to hit Ricven. That one fails to clamp itself on him however, as he twists away from it.

Ven, now would be another good time to try to call upon the power of your god. Before any of these cuffs manage to get us.

I attack the manacles in front of me with my cold iron axe.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Crit confirm:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

As the clattering of chains echoes through the chamber, Aerys attempts to hurl a blast of energy towards a dancing set of manacles.

He would attempt to hit the set Ad'ifaah damaged (hopefully). If they're down already, he'd then target the ones facing Ricven

Casts Disrupt Undead (-4 for into combat?)

1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 3 - 4 = 0
1d6 ⇒ 6

Aerys, you may make a knowledge Arcana check first. If you make it I'll let you change your action. Anyone else may make the Knowledge Arcana check too.

Knowledge (Arcana): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Ugh! What is it with everything around here and coming alive!? Aeleanor asks exasperatedly, taking a swing at a pair of maniacal manacles.

Curved Blade: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 6

Abe tries to ascertain if the manifestation is evil (detect evil, a move action) and takes a swing at the one attacking him with his sword, not knowing if weapons will affect it or not.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Ricven struggles to free himself from the demonic chains.

"I won't be trapped here, spirits!

Venedictos will channel energy. 1d6 ⇒ 3 Will save DC 15 for half, unless he knows something better from his Knowledge Arcana check above.

Ricven, it missed the grapple on you so you aren't grappled.
Venedictos, you recognize these as Animated Objects. You know they are essentially Constructs. They are critable, but positive nergy has no effect on them (negative either). They have hardness and hit points like objects, Sunder also works on them.

Aeleanor, Abernathus, and Ad'ifaah all hit, but there blows seem to have no effect. Ricven however, easily sunders the manacles attacking him and they fall harmlessly to the floor, but as he swings the manacles slap him in the head.

AoO vs Ricven 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
Grab vs Ricven 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Ricven, take 1 more point of damage.

Knowledge Arcana: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

evidently aerys isn't so good with the think-y stuff... :)

So we just have to hit these things harder I guess. I hit that last one pretty hard and hardly scratched it. Ricven, can you take these one by one?

I swing at the manacles attacking me again.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Is there a second one close enough to cleave into? If so, I will post my cleave attack.

In that case, Venedictos is about to channel, then stops. "This isn't a haunt, or at least, we aren't going to beat it the same way. Just smash the things and it'll stop!" Seeing how Ricven went about it, he adds, "No! Target the chains like Ricven!"

Venedictos instead swings his glaive at one of the manacles' chains, backing up if he has to to keep out of its reach.
Attack: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16 +2 if he can find a flank with a 5-foot step
Damage: 1d10 - 1 ⇒ (7) - 1 = 6

Round 2:

Abe tries again, swinging as hard as he can.

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Aerys nods at Vededictos' revelation. "That explains my failure to damage them. That, and my horrendous aim..." He then conjures a small sphere of greenish acid, which he hurls at the nearest chain.

Casts Acid Splash
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
1d3 ⇒ 3

And let that mild stinging sensation be a lesson to them! :)

Hmmm Shol is not as effective as I had hoped here...

Shol'a'saul knows she is of little use in this fight. She therefore decides to assist the halfling in his attacks.

Round 2: AA Abernathus Attack [ice]1d20+1[/dice] vs. AC 10.

Use your evil eye on the manacles, drop their AC and/or attacks.

The Evil Eye hex is a Mind Affecting ability...and won't work against constructs....:(

Ricven takes a swing at more of the chains.

cleave attempt on Sunders 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Damage 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Cleave two 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Damage 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19

Crit confirmation 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Extra damage 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 4) + 9 = 18

AC 16 because of cleave 21/23 HP

Ricven, I think you are just hitting them, correct? You aren't actually doing a Sunder combat manuever?

Sorry, I thought any melee attack could be a sunder attempt. If that's not the case, I'll just try regular attacks this round and see how well it works.

Not really sure whether there is any difference in this case as both the attack and the sunder both are reduced by the hardness of the material. However, the sunder opens you up to an AoO whereas a regular attack does not.

wow, really? I guess you sunder only if you have feats then.

round 1

vs Ad'ifaah 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
vs Abernathus 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
vs Venedictos 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
grab vs Venedictos 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Venedictos you take 2 points of damage. You are also grappled.

Aside from Ricven, all the other hits seem to have no effect, however Aerys's acid splash also damages one pair. One set of manacles clasp themselves around Venedictos's wrists and begin squeezing. Drops of blood begin to leak out from under the metal.

round 2

Ricven destroys another one.
None of them are in cleave range (none adjacent to another). Also, you rolled d20's for damage :) So I used the damage from the crit as your base damage.

"Ah!!! Ricven, this one next, please!" Venedictos cries out. He'll channel healing energies if he can for 1d6 ⇒ 3 points of healing.

Sooner or later I will either break this thing, or delay it until Ricven shows up with his big sword. Go and help Ven first though.

I switch weapons to my scimitar.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Seeing Venedictos' plight, Aerys sends a dart of energy arcing towards the manacles that are constricting about his wrists.
