Corrin runs forward and sends a bolt of light at the oncoming kobold warrior.
Just had a quick look back and unless I missed another one, her last post was on july 23 on p8.
Corrins bolt goes array and plops into the green glowing goop. Jocarra and eclipse move further in the room.
Kronag advances, sling awhirl, then lets fly at his kobold counterpart.
With a combat yell, Lareth lunges at the nearest Kobold striking him back.
Kronag moves up and beans the kobold between the eye!
Adrana moves up near Kronag and whiles for Bruno to follow.
Lareth moves into combat. As he brings his attack against the skrimisher a pot flies from behind a closed portcullis ().
The pot shatters covering the warrior in a sticky mess,
Designed to bar large creatures the skirmisher behind it easily passes through and jabs at Lareth.
Seeing an opening in his defenses Lareth's target strikes
Lareth scimitar strikes true on one of his attackers, and before it can react he slams it with his heavy shield. It flies into the next square, Lareth on it's tail.
Brazimal begins weaving a more complicated spell hoping to end this fight faster.
Both kobolds yawn as the magical sleep crawls over them, but to the young mages surprise both seem to shake off the effects.
Yawning K2 moves along the side room, weapon at the ready, while the slinger loads another shot.
The shot goes low and skips along the floor
"Go" Jocarra motions for Eclipse to strike. The snake appears near Lareth and attacks the new skirmisher
The skirmisher screams as the spectral snake leaps at it's face
Corrin grins from excitement as he sends another bolt of shimmering light at the approaching kobold.
The bolt veers off from the kobold and narrowly misses the slinger before colliding with Lareth's foe.
Corrin's bolt bounces about the room before stiking the skirimisher, sending into a jibbering frenzy.
Seeing Lareth flanked, Kronag runs to (what he thinks of as) the rescue, slamming his mace into the kobold.
Kronag agility leaps over the edge of the pit, and brains the skirmisher. After being struck from Lareth, it's mind tormented by Corrin's energy blast, and now this. It's barely standing.
Not to be left out Adran and Bruno begin to encircle the skirmisher on the opposite side of the pool.
Adrana strikes out with her rapier hoping to distract the kobold from Bruno's side approach
the kobold screeches as the dog bites down on his leg.
"Killssss them!" The first slinger hisses
A shot from behind the portcullis aimed at the spectral serpent
The shot pegs the snake in the certer of it's head. To the kobolds horror though it pass right through and plops into the glowing green gunk.
K3 strikes at Lareth hoping to bring down the warrior before the snake or the kobold turn their attention to him
It then shifts behind the portcullis.
K1, panicked, swings at the half-orc before moving a safe distance
It's attack not only misses Kronag, but draws an attack from Lareth
His attack is more than enough to finish off the skirmisher.
Lareths blade swings through the Kobold before him and completes the circle of death, the momentum propelling him toward the slinger. You can joing ya mates in death too He says to him as he tries to strike home.
Brazimal moves forward and flings a spell at two of the kobolds. Praying that her inexperience doesn't flub this spell too.
Lareth pushes past the slinger. Leaving a large cut down it's torso.
A flast of light and the smell of something buring comes from behind the portcullis.
The skirimisher slashes at Adrana, and backs itself into the corner.
Seeing the others in control of the situation, Jocarra turns her attention to the kobolds hiding behind the portcullis.
"This would be easier if that lattice of metal wasn't their", Jocarra speaks over the howling of the kobold
Corrin fires another bolt at the remaining kobold he can actually see
The skirmisher seems almost stunned from Corrins psychic assult. Still it seems capable of giving a fight.
Kronag steps up, taking cover by the wall, and attempts to swing his mace down when the kobold reaches any body part outside the portcullis.
Kronag's attack is less than successful. The skirmisher snickers at the half-orc's attempt.
Adrana and Bruno both move in, hoping to finish off their kobold.
Unfortunatly the cornered lizrd proves to agile for the duo.
Still recovering from the fact that it's attack had no effect on the snake, S2 launches another shot. This time at Jocarra.
The shot nails the poor girl right between the eyes. She crumples over momentarily from the pain.
K3 slowly backs up the hall, "We holdsss them. They can cannot pass."
I'll help you Adrana Lareth says as he launches himself at the cornered Kobold.
Brazimal scans the room and the area beyond the portcullis for a lever or switch with which to raise the portcullis. Not seeing anything immediately she moves to take cover from those behind the portcullis.
The skirmisher gurgles as Lareth puts the finishes touches to it. Brazimal, not seeing a way to lift the metal lattice, moves to safety.
Jocarra aatempts tp peer past the portcullis...
"There is a lever on the other side. We either need to send Corrin through the metal bars, as he'll fit, or we must bend them to get through."
Corrin walks over to the portcullis. "I'll get the lever. Now, will you two just get out of my way!" With that, an unseen force lashes out at the kobolds, hopefully pushing them away from the lever.
Corrin violently shoves the skirmisher into the wall. The slinger somehow manages to hold it's ground and dodge his flying friends body.
Kronag switches weapons back to his sling, and prepares to attack as soon as he can get a good angle.
Kronag readies a shot. Adrana and Bruno head toward the left side of the pool ready to delve deeper.
The slinger panics. It looses a shot against the halfling and begins to run down the northern hall.
\
K3 rubs it's aching head and hisses at it's fleeing comrade. It grips it's spear tight, takes a step forward, and readies for whatever comes.
"Ow!"
"Ow!"
Lareth moves forward sheathing his scimitar and drawing a javelin
"Ow!"
Brazimal moves up and looks for the lever Jocarra saw in the hopes she can use her magic to open the portcullis.
Corrin shrugs and steps through the portcullis and attempts to fry the kobold with a gout of flame.
Jocarra waits impatient for Corrin to raise the portcullis.
Corrin easily steps between the metal gate and fries the last skirmisher.
Corrin lifts the lever and with it the portcullis. The slinger apparently dashing down the hallway.
Lareth will change weapons to his scimitar again and move down the new passage to the corner and peek around it to look for the kobold.
Peeking around the corner Lareth notices stair heading down into to the darkness. In the dark you hear the light clacking of what must be the kobolds claws against the cold ground. The sound soon ends and the room becomes errily quiet.
Lareth then moves quickly to the top of the stairs, eagerly peering down hoping to find the escaped reptile.
Kronag follows Lareth. "C'mon, gang," he whispers loudly to the rest.
Brazimal stalls for a moment looking at the portcullis lever wondering how she could have missed it, before heading after the others.
