Cuthalian steps up behind Elathras and waits for an opening to move further into the room.

Init Order Round Two

Skeletons

Marthek

Silvash waits until there is someplace in the room he can get to.

Skeleton attacks Marthek twice

short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2 and STR: 1d3 ⇒ 3
short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6 and STR: 1d3 ⇒ 3

Seeing Marthek wounded, Elathras tells him, "Marthek, hit that thing and fall back where Thoron can help you."

Elathras will delay until Marthek goes.

Alana will cast a spell using a reservoir point to increase caster level and try and eliminate the skeleton:

"Arcaniss Nil'Gnos!"

Eat force scumbag!: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 1, 3) + 5 = 15 (that was pathetic...)

LOL you're resembling me now.

Marthek swings and retreats

greatclub: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27 damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

(DUH) Cuthalian resheaths his sword and draws his bow. It may not do a lot to the creatures but gives him some distance. Then he changes his judgement from defense to justice (+2 to hit).

Nodding approvingly as Marthek hits the skeleton with his club then falls back, he smiles, "Hopefully we can make more room in here." He then steps forward, lifting his longsword, he slashes multiple times at the skeleton.

haste attack: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19 for damage: 1d8 + 10 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 10 + 6 + 1 = 20

It falls with the first swing.

Thoron

Seeing the skeleton ahead, Elathras Looks over his shoulder calling out, Marthek, has Thoron healed you yet? We have more up room here now and I'm going to need some help."

Yeah, this is just a friendly reminder to Thoron that both Marthek and Silvash now have both damage and strength drain.

Three days and five posts before you posted this question Silvash had taken damage.

In Play by post the game will move faster if you read the posts, and then have your character 'observe' the action and react to it. Instead of asking people if they need help and waiting for them to respond. Which Silvash was not able to do before the round ended, so we missed an opportunity for you to help him.

oh sorry I missed that. Will cast lesser restoration on Silvash seeing he's next to me.

is there a roll involved with that?

Didn't think so, seeing as I'm not in combat

Lesser restoration dispels any magical effects reducing one of the subject’s ability scores or cures 1d4 points of temporary ability damage to one of the subject’s ability scores.

I was thinking the skeletons were doing ability damage so we needed a 1d4 roll, I could be wrong.

Brv, do we need to roll due to ability damage or is it that the magical effect reduced the ability score and were good to go?

sheesh sorry guys I've got friends and people sick, so I'm distracted.

lesser restoration: 1d4 ⇒ 3

3 back for Silvash

Sorry to hear folks aren't well, we aren't going anywhere, take care of your people.

Init Order Round Three

Were at the top of the order so Silvash's turn. Thoron healed all the points of str. damage that Silvash took from the attack opening the door.

Yes, waiting on Silvash

Silvash says, "Guess it's my turn." and moves in and attacks the skeleton.

+1 Rapier: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Do we still have the holy spear or did we sell that thing?

I believe Marthek was carrying it

Yeah I think Marthek has it.

The remaining skeleton attacks Silvash

short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 21 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4 and STR: 1d3 ⇒ 3

Alana will cast another spell using a reservoir point to increase caster level and try and eliminate the last skeleton:

"Arcaniss Nil'Gnos!"

Magic Missile: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (2, 1, 1, 3, 4) + 5 = 16 well, that could have been worse...

"Quickly, smash it before it has a chance to strike again!"

Seeing Silvash shoot past him Elathras nods, in aggreeent with Alana "Good idea, let's if we can." he then moves in beside Silvash and swings his longsword at the thing.

Cuthalian attempts to shoot the skeleton, knowing damage could be minimal.

Atk: 1d20 + 9 + 2 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 9 + 2 - 4 = 221d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Elathras misses and Cuthalian does not bypass DR

think it's my turn I'll cast bless on the party

Silvash withdrawls away from the skeleton looking a bit weaker after the attack.

Down 4 STR

The last skeleton attacks Elathras

short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 3 and STR: 1d3 ⇒ 1
short sword: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28 damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6 and STR: 1d3 ⇒ 3

"Blast! and Damnation, this confounded thing will not die!"

Alana will cast another spell using a reservoir point to increase caster level and try and eliminate the last skeleton:

"Arcaniss Nil'Gnos!"

DIE already!: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 3, 2) + 5 = 17 better...

"Owww! That hurt!" not able to dodge either of the black skeletons blades, Elathras begins to bleed from the shallow cuts, remembering the blades had some sort of power to weaken him. He struggles slightly to swing the longsword as he attacks the monster repeatedly.

edit: I keep forgetting about the mantle of faith, I assume the attacks aren't "Evil"

Can Marthek do anything to help defeat the skeleton now?

Can Marthek do anything to help defeat the skeleton now?

Man, if Elathras' attack didn't kill it, we may want to run...

With a growl, Cuthalian drops his bow, draws his sword, declares bane on the skeleton, and steps up to it to try and take it down.

Atk PA: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 201d10 + 11 + 2d6 ⇒ (10) + 11 + (6, 6) = 33

if I can reach Elathras I'll cast Aid on him Aid: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11 So 11 temporary Hp's on him. Also gets +1 on attacks and saves vs fear effects

Elathras finishes off the last black skeleton.

xp=800 each

Seeing the last skeleton fall, Elathras breaths a sigh if relief, then begins to search the room, also checking to see if his old pack and hammer were still there.

Once he's done searching the room he asks, Thoron, "I feel weak could you help me?"

Str -4
perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (9) + 15 = 24

Cuthalian assists in the search of the room.

Per: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 14

"Oh good lord, I certainly hope we do not encounter more of those anytime soon."

Silvash clasps Elathras on the should, "It got me as well. I think it is more important to heal you first then me."

Elathras smiles, "It's all good Silvash, we have a wand."
