Marhok drops the ranseur and draws his trusty Greatsword from its sheath again.
"This is gonna hurt you!"
hits, it growls
Marhok's eyes widen as he realizes that he did not do as much damage as he should have.
what does eddy do?
Edric picks up a Tanglefoot bag from his backpack and throws it at the minotaur.
yup, it splatters on the beast who is entangled, but not glued
both attacks miss
go
Edric aims his crossbow and loads a cold iron bolt onto it, then fires it at the large beast.
"Hmm well if that greatsword won't work, perhaps this one will."
Marhok grabs the cold iron greatsword from his side.
"Second Round!"
hits but still dos only a little damage
one hit!
Marhok takes a horn to the ribs, knocking the wind out of him
go
Marhok picks up Irabeth's sword from the ground as he notices his hits doing almost no damage, drawing another AoO from the beast.
Then he strikes at it again with the magical power of the sword behind it.
Edric doesn't know what else to do and channels energy enveloping him and Marhok.
MArhok hits but still doesn't overcome the DR
aoo and other attacks miss
Go
no bane quality its humanoid still and DR good
Marhok attacks the minotaur again with fervour, but the way it resists his attacks is quite frustrating to him.
After Marhok's swing and miss, Edric raises his shield and shouts to Marhok. "Marhok! Close your eyes!"
A blinding flash follows and fills the room with such a bright light, most creatures would be unable to see after that.
you actually get to keep the shield use, because while entangled you actually hit and drop the beast.
Edric finishes it off then gathers the loot
MW LArge Greatax
horn of battle clarity, Deradnu carries
a collection of six ivory figurines in a belt pouch. Each
figurine depicts a nude humanoid woman with disturbing
animalistic features; they are worth 45 gp each.
Edric studies the room
Marhok, these helmets are helmets of the Fisrt Crusaders lost in the First Crusade! A shame they have been destroyed. What an act of hate.
ooops I forgot the horn!
Horn of Battle Clarity, which you need a DC 21 to ID
Marhok walks up to the minotaur, mumbling something about him being a worthy opponent and then stabs him through its heart with his greatsword.
"A shame indeed, but it is what we can only expect of these demons and cultists. They'll desecrate or destroy everything that's a boon or hope to us."
Marhok will take the greataxe with him, seeing as he could use it himself. Edric will gather up the icons, frowning as he takes a better look at them.
We did pass a forge. We could probably repair them, or I could use my magics on them if we wanted, especially if you still want to hole up and rest.
"Heal them with your magic, then heal me up and let's take a quick rest in that room, I want to be in top shape if I fight another minotaur like that."
Edric uses his magic to mend the helmets and later in the sleeping room heals Marhok and himself with the last of his channel energy and his last magical reserves.
Sorry I meant he would need to use a make whole
You would have to rest
Do you want to repair them at the forge?
Also what preparations will you make to rest
Marhok and Edric take up quarters in the sleeping area, clear out some dust and filth from the beds if necessary and make sure they've got something set up so they can sleep relatively unhindered. To that end, they barricade the door and set up a soft watch schedule, with the one on watch able to lie down for rest, but only needing to stay awake to listen that none break down the door.
Before they go to sleep, they have a hearty dinner, Marhok eating two rations as he seems to be famished after fighting most of the day.
You wake the next day. Back to the next room?
Marhok and Edric wake, quite refreshed actually, and move the barricade from the doors. Marhok makes sure his muscles are all relaxed and Edric prays and meditates asking Abadar for his protection and their safety in the lastleg of the fights inside.
After that the pair of them leaves and heads back to the next room, all the while making sure that the other rooms they pass aren't desecrated again or some new enemy has taken up residence in it.
Before they enter the next room, Marhok lsitens intently at the door/ opening before heading in.
Marhok hears nothing as Edric looks sadly at the broken helms.
I feel like we should fix these Marhok, I dunno, it just seems wrong...
"I can't and won't hold it against you if you want to repair those helmets Edric. But please hurry up, I don't want any enemies to surprise us as we repair those helmets."
Edric will gather the helmets, cast Make Whole on them and place them back on their pedestals.
Thank you Marhok, something just feels right about fixing them.
The next door is locked and it must be bashed down by the morning star.
Any buffs you want to do before you do that?
Marhok slams into the door three times with his adamantine heavy mace, before he drinks a potion of Enlarge Person and Edric casts Protection from Evil on him.
"Knock knock!" Marhok says as the door shatters before him, showing him holding the adamantine mace and his ranseur.
The door bursts open and inside are two tielfings, Edric shudders as he realizes that one is the one that almost killed him, and a woman wielding a scythe at the far end of the room, Blocking the path are two barricades, that will take Edric a full round action to climb over, and marhok will have to make a move.
Go
map up
You have caused me quite the problems of late. I will enjoy raising your corpses to fight your friends.
This circular room's original purpose is unclear, but now it seems
to be a trophy hall of some sort. A low stone pedestal sits on the
floor in the middle of the chamber under a domed ceiling. Atop
the pedestal is an iron, barbed cage-and within the cage sits a
chunk of softly glowing white stone.
Edric looks at the tiefling with a slightly scared look, but then shouts to Marhok.
"Go on Marhok! Show him who is boss. He'll soon find out who is stronger of you two."
Edric then walks up to the first barricade, aiming to step over it the next round.
Marhok drops his adamantine mace, then steps over the barricades. His skin hardens and turns grey as he steps over the first barricade. He then stabs with the ranseur over the barricade and tries to pierce the tiefling with it.
His eyes flare as he relishes in the thought of getting even with him.
The woman with the scythe mutters a spell and points at Marhok Hold still and die!
Marhok's muscles tense up and he finds that he can no longer move!
Then she moves up to the barrier and is prepared to climb it.
one bolt slams into Marhok
GO DC 16 Will to free yourself
Edric looks at the tiefling and points at him with more comfort than before.
"You're going down! Very painfully! This time you're fighting a real giant of combat!" He says as he points to Marhok.
Marhok struggles with his mind to break free of the spell holding him.
And keeps standing still rock solid....
The three move over the barrier, while the woman stands up top and attacks, while the other two position for the kill next round
to confirm does not! lucky!
go
Marhok breaks free and grips the longsword with two hands, dropping the ranseur.
"Now it's my turn! RAAH!"
Edric looks to the person (or creature) that stands to the right of Marhok and his voice booms across the room.
"Abadar and Iomedae's judgment is upon you, fall to your knees and beg for mercy!"
Not yet you are free at the end if the round. But you can't be CDG'd which was about to happen
saves
to confirm YES!
The scythe slices into MArhok again, and one of the flanking triflings slices at the hamstring
go
Marhok focuses on the scythe-wielder close to him.
Edric channels energy to heal Marhok, hoping to heal him a good deal.
The scythe wielder grunts in pain and successfully casts a spell defensively then touches Marhok
It's a bad touch will save 18 or lose 6 con
Both tiefling a miss
