As Logan walks forward he can here the sounds of shuffling coming from the darkened room beyond, and a fetid air wafts from inside. However, the light from the torches in the tunnel does not illuminate the room at all.
"Wait," Yrenn whispers. She casts a spell of light into the darkness.
"What is it?" Elmo sneaks closer to Logan.
Yrenn's light spell provides shadowy illumination in the room beyond. Four partially decayed corpses shamble around and then begin to rush towards the shining light.
A scowl of disgust crosses Yrenn's face as she conjures a spell of cold.
Thanks
Yrenn's spell strikes the zombie with a pale blue ray. The creature slows it's gait, but doesn't show any other signs of having been affected by the spell.
Ba'az will start forward keeping an eye and ear out anything unuseual and stop when he gets to B-12 and wait s for the others to join him.
Elmo scampers up the corridor to E12.
"Come on Jake! You like undead."
"Ahem. I most certainly do not."
"You like demolishing them then. Same thing."
"We really must have a chat about the love/hate axis."
"Later Jake. Fry them first."
Elmo concentrates on the job in hand, his beady eyes focusing on the zombies.
The zombies movements slow considerably
"Ah, now, chaps, it would be jolly helpful if I could get someone with a bit of oumph to guard me before I attempt to show these monstrosities the back door."
"Right behind you Jake. You turn them into ashes and I'll sweep them away."
"Er... um, right, old chum."
Ba'az's strike pierces the chest of the zombie, which then shambles forward to attack him. The first zombie swings and hits Ba'az with a solid punch. Then the second zombie shambles up on the other side and hits Ba'az as well. 1d20+6=26, 1d20+6=18 Ba'az takes a total of 19 damage from the zombies. Meanwhile the other two slump over as if they have had the strings holding them up cut.
I am also blooded.
Logan streaks to behind Ba'az and stabs one sword at each zombie.
Seeing the undead still standing, Logan lashes out again.
"Ba'az, we really need to stop meeting like this." *wink*
"Logan, I'll set 'em up you knock 'em down".
"May I join you?"
Elmo's remembers his manners and his blade glints with frost as he strides towards Z2 and jabs firmly at the monster.
"Undead miscreant, stay!"
Frigid Blade (AC) v Z2 (1d20 6=19, 1d8 4=10).
Logan's fierce assault slashes the first zombie to ribbons. As it collapse, the body disolves into dust. Elmo's strike does some visible damage to the second zombie and frost forms along the monster's limbs.
Dependant on what Jake does:
Ba'az uses his divine chalange on Z2, then shifts into square K-11 flanking it with Elmo.
Attacks using Holy Strike; attack=25
Damage=8+2 points radiant damage.
A crackling bolt that has an almost musical quality lances out at one of the other zombies, and Jake cries, "There are more over here!"
Ba'az and Jake make short work of the second zombie and it too collapses into dust. The two remaining zombies continue to stand unmoving, like flesh covered statues.
Seeing Jake move towards the other undead, Logan makes a backswing against the corpse next to him and then rushes toward the other undead.
"Smelly runts! At least they're not oozes."
Elmo moves down the room, glaring at Z3.
"Why isn't it moving Jake? Do you think the room is trapped?"
He pauses, stares hard at Z3 and makes a gesture with his sword. "Anyway, it's mine when it does move."
