Morsun steps out of the constructs' lines of sight on the party's side of the doorway. If any of he constructs bring the fight to the doorway, Morsun will be ready. If Throkk or Emri run in, he'll follow in when the enemies are distracted.

Sool casts 'Grease' under three of the figures who manage to stay standing.
Throkk moves forward to block the door before drawing a javeling and hurling it at one of the creatures.
Sazen shoots at the same target.
The creatures are intelligent enough to carefully take their time moving out of the greased area but only two of them manage to get into melee with Throkk.
Emri
Morson
Sool
Throkk -18
Sazen
Monsters AC18 Red -8
Sazen takes a guarded step back and shoots again at Red.
Emri Steps forward, crouches low into dragon stance, then launches a flurry of flying kicks at the red monster.
Proving once again that she sucks at this whole' fighting' thing...
Morsun steps out from where he's concealing himself and thrusts both sword and dagger at the nearest construct.

Sool sends a Telekinetic Projectile at one of the constructs.
Throkk hacks the same target as Morsun to the ground before landing another solid blow on the other construct within reach.
Sazen takes a guarded step back and shoots again at the injured construct.
The constructs swarm towards you and focus their attacks on Throkk who barely keeps his footing.

Seeing Throkk get walloped, Emri redoubles her efforts. "Take THIS!" she shrieks, as her feet start to glow with a fiery light.
She lands, twisting her body and launching a pair of punches at the red one!
Sazen shoots at Red.
Morsun strides so that the construct closest to him is flanked by him and Emri before lashing out again.

Ki Strike with a flurry of blows at red.

Morsun strides so that the orange construct closest to him is flanked by him and Emri before lashing out again.
Sool continues to target Green with telekinetic projectiles.
Throk tries to put one of the damaged constructs but with how much blood is pouring out of his wounds it's clear he's a little light headed.
Sazen shoots at Red.
The creatures focus their attacks and manage to bring down the large human sending Throkk crumpling to the floor.
Emri being a smaller target proves more difficult to land a blow on.
Inside the room the last construct trudges towards Morson and lands a glancing blow, acid sizzles against the dwarfs arm where the blow made a partial connection.
Emri
Morson
Sool
Throkk Dying 1
Sazen
Monsters AC18 Red -27, Green -13
Sazen moves back 25 feet so she won't be healing any bad guys and she casts Heal.
I don't think anyone in range needs healing besides Throkk, but the 2 action version heals the most, so hopefully that will keep him going a bit longer.
Realizing too late that's he allowed himself to get cutoff from the others, Morsun sets about fixing that.
"Throkk!" Emri shouts. "No!"
Emri presses the attack, pummelling red as best as she can.
But she only manages to land one blow.
"Throkk!" Emri shouts. "No!"
Emri presses the attack, pummelling red as best as she can. But she only manages to land one blow.... but one more was all it took.
Realizing too late that's he allowed himself to get cutoff from the others, Morsun sets about fixing that.
Sool keeps sending inanimate objects hurtling toward Green.
Throkk continues to bleed out...
Sazen moves back and casts Heal on Throkk.
While Morson can't land a blow he makes damn sure not to be hit in return. Emri gets hit with a glancing blow while leaves some corrosive residue behind faint chemical smoke wafting from the patch of cloth for a moment.

Sazen moves to get a better angle and then shoots at Orange.
Panicking a little bit at seeing Throkk go down and Emri get hit, Morsun lashes out wildly.

Emri spins, pummelling the creature with a few kicks, then lands and tosses a few punches.
But she again seems to be completely ineffective against these creatures. Gah! Why'd they have to be so... weird?

Panicking a little bit at seeing Throkk go down and Emri get hit, Morsun lashes out wildly... but manages to take an enemy down.
Sool attacks the remaining construct with a telekinetic projectile.
Throkk manages to finish of the remaining construct with two swift strikes of his axe.
The central table contains common alchemical items ready to be shipped. Chief among them is a small crate containing 6 vials of lesser alchemist’s fire and another with 4 lesser acid flasks. There is also a small, velvet-lined box containing a single dose of lesser stone body mutagen. A note on the table indicates these items are intended for an address in the Chelish capital of Egorian.

Sool moves into the room and looks over the laboratory with keen interest, and even makes a few notes on some of the tradecraft involved. He helps himself to a couple bottles of alchemist's fire and one bottle of the acid, carefully tucking them away in his pack.
"One might have guessed she'd have clientele in Cheliax." he says, brushing a long forefinger upon the address on the mutagen.
Sool and likely other note a spiral staircase to the east descending downwards.
The spiral stairs from the laboratory descend fifty feet before ending in a narrow hallway. To one side, more stairs descend further to an iron door, while the hallway continues south to a simple wooden door. Along the wall is a carving of a small farming village surrounded by an immense graveyard.
Sazen rechecks the rooms to make sure they have looted the place thoroughly, and then goes down the stairs with the group.
She listens at the door.
Sazen goes down to the eastern iron door and hears faint laboured, gurgling from the other side of the door.
Sazen then goes south to the wooden door and hears bubbling of liquids and the ocassional clinking of glass or crystal as it gets moved around by someone in the room.
Sazen passes the information on to the others, asking which door they want to try first.
(If no one has an opinion, she will choose to open the southern door first, thinking that sounds more like their quarry.)
Morsun keeps his eyes peeled for any signs of traps, especially on the doors they're considering going through.
This large chamber contains an alchemical laboratory, but unlike
the one upstairs, it is clear that this is a laboratory for only one alchemist. Everything is meticulously cleaned and well organized. Two cauldrons bubble alongside a central table covered in alchemical equipment. The walls are lined with shelves that hold old books and orderly rows of glass bottles, each containing reagents and ingredients. Three pits, their contents hidden from view, fill one side of the room; nearby, a tall glass cylinder contains the blackened corpse of a dwarf surrounded by a swirling green mist.
Two of the alchemical constructs are in this room. They place their equipment down carefully and trudge towards you to bar entrance to the room.

Having apparently let everyone in front of her, Sazen delays, knowing she might hit someone with an arrow.
"Maybe some of us can circle around via that hallway we just passed."
Sazen, trusting her exquisite bowmanship not to hurt the three people between herself and her target, shoots an arrow down the hallway.

Emri tries to Tumble Through the green construct's space, rolling through it's legs and into the room.
She comes up behind the green construct, adopts a crouched powerful stance, then launches a flurry of kicks at the creature's back.
But her aim is way off, as always!
Following Emri's lead, Morsun also attempts to make his way past the construccts.
Unable to tumble his way around the constructs, Morsun manages to barely squeeze past one to give people behind him room to attack.
Throkk charges in hacking at one of the constructs.

"I seem to recall something about 'gurgling' sounds coming from behind that other door. I wouldn't recommend fighting on two fronts." says Sool. He cranes his long thin neck looking around Throkk, then sends a spray of magical bolts hurtling toward the alchemical beast... already badly injured it collapses to the ground.
The construct focuses it's attacks on the weakened Throkk.

"Stop... moving!" Emri grunts as she unleashes another barrage of kicks at the monster.
Sazen moves up behind Throkk and heals him again.

Morsun got into position just in time for Throkk and Sool to take it down. With a sigh of exasperation, he steps forward and attacks the other one.

Unable to see the remaining drudge, Sool moves forward but does not cast.
Throkk and the creature exchange blows... he manages one good hit while it can't land that last blow.
Surrounded and alone the last construct falls to fist, blade and spell.

Sazen gathers up the supplies before she follows. No sense leaving them for the profit of the crazy woman they were planning on killing anyway.
