Taking also moves in with a five footer and starts swinging against the knight in yellow armor
Attack: 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (12) + 23 = 351d10 + 28 ⇒ (1) + 28 = 29
Attack: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 321d10 + 28 ⇒ (1) + 28 = 29
Attack: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 171d10 + 28 ⇒ (3) + 28 = 31

The three martials breach the room at full strength and perform a lightning attack maneuver killing three of the four creatures instantly. The last one is felled shortly thereafter.

Combat Over!

There are doors to the north and a door to the south on the east side of the room.

xD

Saint Gudule puts his hands on his hips and laughs.
"Well, I almost forgot what it was like to be useless! Nice fight, guys!"

"Well, this place seems to have two different types of bad guys. Either the super easy to kill or one that almost kills all of us."

"Let's go to the south first!" Barm starts moving.

Double doors open to reveal a 10-foot-wide corridor extending to the south. The final stretch of the hall is bathed in shifting energy—pink, scarlet, dusty rose, and incandescent blue.

Using a spell of detect Magic, Gudule states.
"Smells like transmutation Magic!"

Spellcraft?: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (19) + 16 = 35

Saint Gudule is familiar with the weave of this magic, it is wild and uncontrolled, its unclear what would happen should someone try to pass through this area, but you can see the distorted form of a person at the end of the hallway.

"Saint, what is meaning of that magic?"

"Could it be some kind of portal?"

Saint Gudule smiles widely.
"Now we're talking, foul dungeon!" he shouts.

Walking towards the area of magic, he shouts exictedly:
"WILD MAGIC! SHEER CHAOS!"

And he tries to approach the area.

If he dies, he dies. That's the capstone for Gudule xD

What? Wait!

Desperatly, Baied tries to cast a protective spell on her whimsy partner

Cast Protection from Chaos on Saint Gudule

You're a person after my own heart Saint Gudule! I'm labeled as "Chaos Incarnate" in my Age of Ashes game by the GM.

So I'm going with oracle being an intituive class since its similar to oracle. I'm then assuming Ganzi have basically the same lifespan as a human and that you're the average of 17 years old.

all the fort saves: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18 younger or older: 1d2 ⇒ 2 how many years: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Saint Gudule is now 21

all the fort saves: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17 younger or older: 1d2 ⇒ 1 how many years: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Saint Gudule is now 16

You've made it 10ft forward, would you like to keep going?

haha nice! Actually, I don't know about ganzi's lifespan. However, when I made SG, I chose him to be 25 years old.

Saint Gudule continues his walks towards his destiny!

I am keeping my mouth closed, I want to see what happens here!

I asked in Ask Mark on the Arcane Mark discord and Luis Loza said they have lifespans similar to humans, tieflings, and aasimar. I will use your age of 25 in place of 17.

Saint Gudule is currently 24.

fort save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23
fort save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26
fort save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30
fort save: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (14) + 12 = 26

Saint Gudule rejects the rest of the magic (unless he willingly wants to randomly age around, in which he gets to choose younger or older for each save since he succeeded).

Saint Gudule meets the time distorted form of a human, "You're either insane stupid for coming down here. I am Togarin, an apprentice of Nhur Athemon. Well, this is my body, my spirit is trapped in the time-amber of Thornkeep." he says gesturing at his aged body. "Mind doing this...'old' man a favor?" he says with air-quotes, "Nhur Athemon has soiled the bodies of the other apprentices and I'd like you to put them to rest. Here, take these, the skulls of the fallen cannot bear to witness their bodies in unlife." he says handing you four skulls from his cloak.

That was interesting!

I will take these rolls like that and not choose to age.

Saint Gudule nods and laughs.
"Maybe a bit of both! My body is partially immune to chaos, as I was born from the entropy corrupting my parents. But sure! I will put them to rest! Anything else? Can't I help you?"

Trutzburg looks at the display of temporal magic and looks utterly baffled. "Well that was.... interesting."

"Saint are you ok there!?"

"Guys, what now! Let's check other rooms!"

Other one on the south

This ruined chamber must once have been a bedroom, but the fixtures have mostly rotted away over the centuries.

In this room are two more of the same knights, as well as a female knight.

Sorry, I don't know what these are. Could be constructs, could be something else

oh, I was expecting the following of the dialogue but I'm ok with going on.

Once back towards his companions, Saint Gudule explains what happens and the task he accepted.

knowledge, religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Frēodwēn encourages the team and casts a spell.

inspiration and haste. why yes, I did spend two hours trying to come up with something better than that in character

The female knight lowers her sword in your direction, causing a blast of acid to shoot forward down the hallway.

acid damage: 6d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 4, 6, 2, 2) = 21 DC 19 reflex save for half (hits all of you)

Reflex saves!

Ref save DC 19: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 1 = 20

Saint Gudule dodges most of the acid and discovers that he's a bit acid-proof. that's the first time he actually takes acid damage :D

The ganzi scoffs and brushes dust from his clothes with the back of his hand and holds a fist in the air.

"You're done? NOW TASTE FIRE!" he shouts, as a column of divine fire descend from the ceiling.

Flame Strike DC 23: 12d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4, 2, 1, 1, 6, 3, 3, 5, 3, 4) = 37

Regnum runs to an elevated position on the bed waiting for a good opportunity to shoot.

Run to corner of the room.

Trutzburg charges in and attacks the lady, too.
attack: 1d20 + 24 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 24 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 491d10 + 25 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 25 + 2 = 37

The lady knight collapses and disintegrates in the holy fire, leaving only her armor behind. You easily take care of the other two knights with her.

Combat Over!

Each knight had: potion of bull’s strength, potions of divine favor (3); Other Gear +1 chainmail, +1 heavy wooden shield, +1 battleaxe, shortspear, throwing axes (2), boots of the winterlands, feather token (anchor), 5 GP;p

The lady knight had: +1 full plate, +1 greatsword, composite longbow [+8 Str] with 20 arrows, belt of giant strength +2

"Guys I will take that greatsword just in case!"

"Shall we take a look in that last room that we didn't visit?"

Saint Gudule puts both hands on his hips and laughs loudly.
"Bwahahah! Nobody taunts mighty Gudule with his new powers from the CHAOS MAGIC!"

Turning towards the others, he quietly explains them how his journey into the chaotic fabric of magic MUST have made him more powerful. He surely feels a bit younger.

"Lead the way Barm, you usually do!"

"I can't wait to see your new powers in action, Saint!"

Barm leads the group to the unexplored room.

Frēodwēn will take and drink one of the potions of Divine favor before going into the last room

Trutzburg thinks for a moment. "Wasn´t there something similar between these strong knights and liches?"
He then keeps close to Barm

A slim platform juts out into the center of a huge circular shaft that seems to drop off into nowhere and stretch far above into darkness. A sense of gloom and oppression permeates the room. Although conditions are calm upon the platform, the sounds of howling winds pervade the chamber.

Not really a quiet place..

Baied uses a minor spell to find out if magic is used in the room

Cast detect magic

The book has no specifics, but this area is definitely magical.

Baied senses conjuration magic and that the barrier between the material plane and the astral plane is thin in the empty space around the platform.

Anyone doing anything here?

Conjuration magic here...There is a strong feeling about the Astral plane, maybe there is a guardian or something.Do you feel it too?

Asks Baied to Gudule and Freodwen

Spellcraft to identify an eventual spell: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22
Know about the Astral plane: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Gudule looks over Baied's shoulder and rubs his chin, casting the same spell.
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17

"Naah not important." he concludes.

"Shall I enter?" and Barm enters the room.

You hear a small voice amidst the wind.
"I sense.. defeated... Nhur Athemon. Come... grant... you wish... defeating him."

Trutzburg shrugs and enters.

Regnum follows the group into the room.

Gudule shrugs and follows the others.
"What have we won? A special prize?" he says, eyes sparkling.

When you reach the center of the room, the sounds of howling winds shift to the sounds of hundreds of hissing snakes, and the sibilant voice of Abraxas himself fills the chamber. “Have you come to slain my servant Nhur Athemon?”
