Nualia winces as Conner's strike connects, causing her demonic arm to start bleeding at the shoulder.

Round 12: Ekan, Nicat & Evelyn are up!

Nualia staggers back from the force of Ekan's punch. Sadly, the crit didn't confirm.

She glares at the monk again and her belly scars glow anew, now that she's out of Ekan's reach. More unholy power pulses from them...

Channel Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) = 7

Will Save *Conner*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Will Save *Ekan*: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Will Save *Nicat*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24
Will Save *Evelyn*: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Will Save *Eostre*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

All vs. DC 15

Ekan takes the worst of it this time, but everyone else is able to withstand it.

Conner & Eostre are up!

Oops! Forgot about that!

Reflex Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Nualia's grip on her sword doesn't seem affected much by Nicat's spell.

Right, moving things along.

Evelyn heeds Eostre's request and runs up to Nicat to heal him!

CLW: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 1 = 12

Nualia takes another step back away from Ekan, and this time she lays a hand on her belly scars.

A wave of unholy power bursts forth, washing over the party!

Channel Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

Will Save *Conner*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Will Save *Ekan*: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Will Save *Nicat*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Will Save *Evelyn*: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
Will Save *Eostre*: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

All vs. DC 15.

Conner, Nicat and Eostre get the worst of it, but Evelyn & Ekan are able to weather the pain well enough.

Conner & Eostre are up!

Nualia flinches as Eostre's telekinetic punch strikes her in the belly.

Conner's up!

Ekan's enlarged fist connects with Nualia's face, but she takes it as stoically as ever. She glances at Nicat, and she evidently remembers the laughing fit he sent her into--it would explain why she's decided to strike at him instead of Ekan.

Chop *Divine Favour*: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 8 + 1 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 2 + 1 = 13

Claw: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 3 + 1 = 23
Damage!: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 1 = 6

So... 19 damage total, barring anything I missed. Ouch.

She, apparently, is the type to hold grudges. Her bastard sword comes down hard on Nicat's head and her claw rakes him across the face, drawing a lot of blood.

She then glares at the party and hops back into the hallway, silently beckoning them forward with her bloodied claw.

Conner & Eostre are up!

Nualia easily parries Nicat's distracted swing.

Ekan & Evelyn are up!

Nualia glares at the retreating monk and lays her clawed hand on her scarred belly.

CMW: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (3, 8) + 4 = 15

Her hand glows with unholy power, and her nose suddenly fixes itself. She stalks forward to engage the monk again...

Perception?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

...and is surprised by the metallic *TINK* of a sword connecting with her armour. She looks down at the hobbit who swiped at her and gives him a deadpan look.

"...really?"

Conner & Eostre are up!

Nualia's head snaps back as Eostre's telekinetic fist crashes into her nose. She glares past the large monk as her nose starts bleeding heavily.

Conner's up!

Nualia glares at the giant monk blocking the passageway and her sword glows once again. She viciously swings at him...

Chop *Fury of the Abyss, Power Attack, Divine Favour*: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28
Damage *Power Attack, Divine Favour*: 1d10 + 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 2 + 1 = 12

...and then follows it up with a claw swipe!

Claw *Fury, Power Attack*: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

Her sword rakes across the monk's chest, but her claw falls short!

Conner & Eostre are up! Ekan is blocking the way forward!

Nualia grimaces and staggers back from the force of Ekan's blow, but recovers with a baleful look in her eyes.

Evelyn's up!

Nualia barely flinches as Eostre's telekinetic punch crashes into her breastplate.

The hound whimpers once as Conner runs it through and drops it to the floor. The beast evaporates into a cloud of greasy black smoke.

Round 7: Ekan, Evelyn & Nicat are up!

Nualia rolls her eyes in exasperation and starts walking towards the melee. Her eyes never leave Ekan's face as she moves. She stands on the backs of the shattered statues, her bastard sword still glowing.

Conner & Eostre are up!

Okay then. :)

Ekan's fist comes down hard on the hound's nose!

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

It yowls in pain and starts wobbling around!

Evelyn is up!

Round 6

The yeth hound leaps into melee, heedless of all the sharp weapons pointed in its direction.

Chomp: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Unfortunately, its bite is easily dodged, even with Ekan's increased size.

Ekan, Nicat & Evelyn are up!

Evelyn's injuries heal slightly from her infernal spell. She then steps forward and touches Ekan's leg.

After mumbling something in her otherworldly language, the monk's skin takes on a strange glow, and he feels more protected.

Casting Protection from Evil on Ekan.

Nualia stalks out of the room and glares at the party from the corridor. Her sword is still dripping with blood.

Conner's up!

Round 5

The yeth hound gives chase after the giant Ekan and leaps at him with its jaws wide open!

Chomp: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 4) + 4 = 10
Trip: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Will Save (Ekan): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Ekan takes 5, Evelyn takes 5.

The beast bites down on Ekan's leg, but can't seem to pull him off his feet.

Ekan, Nicat & Evelyn are up!

Ekan: sorry, I'm counting your attack this turn as your action for this round.

Ekan's swing is easily sidestepped by Nualia.

Nualia then steps forward and starts swinging her sword at the enlarged monk, her eyes blazing with an unholy fury.

Swing: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19
Damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

She follows up by swiping with her demonic claw.

Claw: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

While her sword finds its mark, her claw misses entirely.

Conner is up! He is no longer Panicked.

Nicat's bullet flies over Nualia's shoulder.

Ekan & Evelyn are up!

Nualia barely flinches as Eostre's telekinetic punch connects with her face. The medallion around her neck flares a sharp gold in colour and dims.

The yeth hound bites at Ekan again...

Chomp: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

...and bites its own tongue by accident. It yelps in surprise.

Round 4: Ekan, Nicat & Evelyn are up!

Ekan's punches land with his new size, but even with his enlarged frame it feels like he's punching a stone wall.

Nualia gets to her feet and picks up her sword, glaring balefully at Nicat.

Conner & Eostre are up! Conner is still Panicked!

Ekan's up.

Sorry. You'll have to do that next turn.

Nualia's Prone, so she gets a +4 bonus vs. Ranged Attacks.

Nicat's sling bullet flies over the prone woman's head.

Ekan & Evelyn are up!

The yeth hound snarls at Ekan and leaps at him with its jaws opened wide!

Chomp: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 1) + 4 = 7
Trip?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Will Save (Ekan): 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 6 + 1 = 19

The beast manages to bite down on Ekan's ankle, but can't seem to get enough leverage to pull him down.

Round 3: Ekan, Nicat & Evelyn are up!

Ekan's weapon connects with the yeth hound, but it feels like he's attacking a stone wall--the hound doesn't appear to be hurt by the blow.

Nualia starts gasping for air...

Will Save *Different Type*: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 4 = 32

...and abruptly stops laughing. She starts wiping her tears away with her claw hand.

Conner & Eostre are up! Conner is Panicked!

Will Save *Different Type*: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 4 = 13

At first, nothing seems to happen.

Then, Nualia snickers. "...heh-heh-heh-heh..."

Then starts laughing. "Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

There's no mirth in her eyes. Only madness.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

She falls down. Tears start running down her face.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Ekan & Evelyn are up!

The yeth hound nimbly hops aside of Conner's strike, but it's still closer than it'd like to admit.

Round 2

The hound steps out of Conner's reach... and howls.

"AAAAAARRRRRROOOOOOOOO!"

Will Save (Nualia): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
Will Save (Conner): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Will Save (Nicat): 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 1 = 15
Will Save (Ekan): 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 6 + 1 = 25
Will Save (Eostre): 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 1 = 24
Will Save (Evelyn): 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 1 = 12

PANIC!: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3 rounds.

The howl doesn't seem to affect anyone but Conner. Thanks to its previous bite, Conner's courage finally fails him.

Nicat, Ekan & Evelyn are up!

Conner is up!

Nualia grabs a medallion in the shape of a seven-pointed star around her neck and growls some sort of guttural prayer.

Temp HP Boost: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

She wrinkles her nose as a red glow suffuses her body. She then raises her fist skyward and calls out "Lamashtu. Your true daughter needs more power!"

A purple glow surrounds her bastard sword and her demonic claw.

Conner & Eostre are up!

"Didn't your father teach you to get to the point?" Nualia arches an eyebrow, unimpressed.

Ekan's strike misses the yeth hound, even with Nicat's encouragement.

Evelyn is up!

"You've lost, you know that, don't you? We've systematically mopped up your minions and pawns. Ripnugget and Bruthazmus are dead. Tsuto and that Lyrie girl are our prisoners. Your mercenaries have--"

Nualia rolls her eyes and doesn't let Eostre finish. She turns to the yeth hound at her side. "Kill them."

Initiative (Eostre): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Initiative (Evelyn): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Initiative (Nicat): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Initiative (Ekan): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Initiative (Conner): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Initiative (Nualia): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
Initiative (Yeth Hound): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

The yeth hound growls and leaps in front of Nualia, chomping at Conner!

Chomp: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 5) + 4 = 10
Will Save (Conner): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Trip?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

The sudden bite is enough to catch Conner unaware. The shock of the bite coming down hard on his arm isn't enough to pull him off his feet, but it's enough to make him feel a sense of dread.

Conner is now Shaken for 1 round.

Round 1: Evelyn, Nicat & Ekan are up!

The lady turns her glare on Eostre.

"Nualia Tobyn is dead. I'm just Nualia now."

The lady glares at Nicat. "What kind of stupid question is *that*?"

The door opens easily.

Wide stone ledges of red marble line the curving walls of this room, which is well lit by four burning skulls that sit in each corner. Three chairs rest in the room, and both stone ledges are covered with old books, scrolls, teeth, bones, scrimshaw artwork, jars of deformed creatures soaking in brine, taxidermied animals and limbs, and other strange objects. To the north, a large round fountain filled with frothy blue water fills the room with the gentle sound of bubbling.

Standing in the room with her back to the door is a white-haired woman dressed in a black, midriff-baring breastplate with red accents. Her right hand carries a serrated bastard sword, and her left hand looks twisted and demonic, coloured red and pulsing with veins. She turns and glares at the party as they enter--the angelic beauty of her soft blue eyes only serves to make her anger all the more impressive. Her belly is horrifically scarred.

"It took you long enough to finally come here." She grumbles, tapping her sword against the floor. The yeth hound next to her growls and raises its hackles. "I suppose you're here to drag me back in chains, then?"
