"Shall we head back inside? I am not sure this detour was of much value..."

"We wouldn't have come if we didn't think we were up to the task."
"Well, this is an interesting conversation, but we need to move on. Any information you can give us?"
Brandor stands close by while Uhe opens the door.
Sure, we got you covered. Hope you feel better soon.
"To the right?"
"I say we keep moving forward."
"Is that a door on the south side of the garden? Maybe if we look to the end of this corridor, we will find the door."
"So ye hid in the cauldron?" As the others lead the way out, Brandon checks his gear, ready to face a new day. He seems rather chipper for a change.
In that case, Brandor closes both trap doors, and then sets to securing the inner one so they won't be disturbed. Once everyone is settled, he uses a couple of channels to heal everyone up to full.
He is willing to take first watch.
Unless he hears a complaint, Brandor puts on the belt and grabs the black key. "It appears as if we have reached an end to this path. This does seem to be a fairly defend-able position. Should we take a rest here?"
"I am afraid I have not yet learned how to rid one of these diseases, although I can certainly use the little magic I have left to heal Maffei here."
Congrats!
"Nice shot! So, did we prove ourselves?" Brandor gathers everyone together and channels some healing.
Good news - while many of my spells are cast, I do still have 6 channels left where I thought I had none. I will start spamming them to heal everyone, and will damage the monk as well. I don't have selective channeling, but it shouldn't hurt us here.
I'm going to try and backtrack, because I think Brandor is out of spells and channels, but if he has either it will help. Anyone happen to know what post would represent the last time we got rested?
Brandor continues his hidden support tactic, pouring a potion of CLW into Maffei's mouth.
Reveka casts cure moderate wounds on Edo, to heal some of that damage.
Brandon casts Resistance on Maffei.
Brandor casts Aid on Edo. "Every little bit helps."
Brandor casts Funereal Weapon on Edo, quickly touching his sword in hand.
Brandor, confident that he is now unseen by the undead, steps up behind Edo to help him do battle. He casts protection from evil on Edo, hoping it will deflect the evil monk's attacks. Protection from evil: First, the subject gains a +2 deflection bonus to AC and a +2 resistance bonus on saves. Both these bonuses apply against attacks made or effects created by evil creatures. Second, the subject immediately receives another saving throw (if one was allowed to begin with) against any spells or effects that possess or exercise mental control over the creature (including enchantment [charm] effects and enchantment [compulsion] effects, such as charm person, command, and dominate person. This saving throw is made with a +2 morale bonus, using the same DC as the original effect. If successful, such effects are suppressed for the duration of this spell. The effects resume when the duration of this spell expires. While under the effects of this spell, the target is immune to any new attempts to possess or exercise mental control over the target. This spell does not expel a controlling life force (such as a ghost or spellcaster using magic jar), but it does prevent them from controlling the target. This second effect only functions against spells and effects created by evil creatures or objects, subject to GM discretion. Third, the spell prevents bodily contact by evil summoned creatures. This causes the natural weapon attacks of such creatures to fail and the creatures to recoil if such attacks require touching the warded creature. Summoned creatures that are not evil are immune to this effect. The protection against contact by summoned creatures ends if the warded creature makes an attack against or tries to force the barrier against the blocked creature. Spell resistance can allow a creature to overcome this protection and touch the warded creature.
Happy to hear you are on the road to recovery!
I hope you are feeling better soon! Take care of yourself.
Brandor shakes his head sadly. "We mean to help, but I was not expecting so many of the undead!" He quickly casts Hide from Undead and reaches out to touch Reveka, Uhe and Liam, as well as targeting himself. "This will hide you, but only if you stay defensive. But even a small advantage may help here."
"It looks like forward means down, then. Well, let's have at it." Brandor pulls open the trap door.
Brandor comes up to the statue from the side, and examines it more closely.
Brandor checks the walls around the chamber before approaching the statue. "Where did that escaping bat thing fly too?" Keeping his crossbow loaded, he looks around. He seems rather distracted, however.
Brandor waits for a kobold to stick his head out, and if so, has the spiritual hammer swing at its head. Readied action:
I can't argue with your point, and I don't see my rate getting any better any time soon. Too many real life issues tugging at me all the time. And as I recall, you have mostly moved onto 2e, correct? I do want to thank you for your patience and your game - it was quite enjoyable. I just wish I could have given more consistent attention.
Brandor then casts Spiritual Weapon to try and hit some of the remote foes while ducking for cover.
Tea time!
After handing out the items, rearranging a few as needed, Brandor then looks at the group. "OK, now let's go find this dragon, shall we? Or does anyone need to rest and get prepared. I know I could use it."
Good call! I forgot about Maffei.
I would suggest the following distribution, but feel free to object! Edo:
Brandor:
Liam:
Reveka:
Uhe:
Brandor joins in helping prepare the body for a better eternal rest.
"Nice ring. I like the feel of a steel shield in hand, though."
Sorry - I have been hard pressed lately to even check in. You are always welcome to use my resources! But as I have returned, yes - I will use it on Maffei.
"Agreed. Perhaps more than one sould can now find peace today."
"Begone, foul creature of the night!"
Sorry to hear it isn't going well for you, but third times a charm, right? Good luck!
Wishing he had something with a little more oomph, Brandor channels again to try and destroy this new threat.
Brandor continues his assault, channeling once more to damage the undead creatures.
Ouch! I fear that every time I am in my attic. Hope your recovery is fast and pain free, at least as much as can be.
Brandor is bolstered by his consecrated area, and channels to damage the undead creature.
Brandor immediately casts consecrate on the area (noted by circle). Consecrate spell: This spell blesses an area with positive energy. The DC to resist positive channeled energy within this area gains a +3 sacred bonus. Every undead creature entering a consecrated area suffers minor disruption, suffering a –1 penalty on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saves. Undead cannot be created within or summoned into a consecrated area. If the consecrated area contains an altar, shrine, or other permanent fixture dedicated to your deity, pantheon, or aligned higher power, the modifiers given above are doubled (+6 sacred bonus to positive channeled energy DCs, –2 penalties for undead in the area). You cannot consecrate an area with a similar fixture of a deity other than your own patron. Instead, the consecrate spell curses the area, cutting off its connection with the associated deity or power. This secondary function, if used, does not also grant the bonuses and penalties relating to undead, as given above.
