Lareth peers down, but see's nothing but the darkness. The party regathers and begins slowly and cautiously down the stairs.

"I wonder where that kobold went?"
there's only one way to find out Lareth says as he takes lead
Brazimal stays in the back of the group after lingering too long in the last room.
The room ahead has four stone coffins, all of which show signs of vandalism and abuse. To the left is a series of six niches, set apart into two groups of three. Two more niches along the walls each hold a suit of armor. On the opposite end of the room is a raised section of
floor with a makeshift altar to Tiamat set atop it. Three kobolds carrying spears, and one with a sling, stand in front of the altar.
Kronag moves forward and launches a shot at the skirmisher... ""
The sound comes to his ears right as he launches his attack. The statue in the western alcove visor swings open launching a hail of darts.
The surprise of the attack has an impact. Not only is Kronag stuck down by the old iron darts, but his attack bounces off the shaft of the skirmisher spear.
Brazimal steps into the room looking around. Seeing a kobold at the far end of the room she sends an orb of arcane force at it.
Brazimal's magic splashes harmlessly again the rear wall.
The slinger whips his sling with unbelieveable force. The shot heat head for the tieflings head.
Adrana and Bruno make there way down the hall and into the fight.
Corrin dashes into the room and fires a bolt of energy at the nearest kobold.
way to go Corrin ;)
way to go Corrin ;)
Corrin wreaks havok on the reptilian force. The bolt slams into every enemy and sends the slinger into a jibbering mess on the floor.
The skirmishers grip their weapons tightly and wait for the younglings to rush at them.
Jocarra finally enters the room. Her eyes trying to find the secert to the darts holding down the half-orc.
"Watch your steps" she points out. "Both statues are rigged to shoot darts at use."
Jocarra quickly points out to the others the trigger stones on the floor.
She holds her hand toward k3 and ghost apparitions swarm around the kobold
Lareth peers into the room and heads down the left side trying to avoid the pressure plates. Thanks Jocarra, these tricky little beggars aren't gonna keep us out, he says as he charges at the nearest one.
Lareth dashes forward, but the kobold is ready. Parrying his attack and delivering on of his own.
The helmet on the statue rises again. The immbolized half-orc is again showered with old darts
Some how the pinned down Kronag avoids the shot and free himself of the remaining darts.
** spoiler omitted **
Kronag, howling in frustration, draws his sling again and sends a stone directly at K3.

K3 joins the slinger on the floor as the shot leaves a dent in it's head!
Brazimal puts some distantance between herself and her friends. She chants an arcane phrase and sends a cold ray at k1.
Adrana and Bruno move about the room hoping to dodge the traps, but to also to close the distance between them and the skirmisher.
Corrin steps forward and sends another bolt at the kobold.
EDIT: Secondary attack vs K1:
Corrins attack leaves the kobolds shaken and jibbering
"For Szartharrax!" K1 and 2 cry as they hurl themselves into the battle.
K1, still somewhat frozen over, moves on Adrana. K2 charges Lareth.
Lareth easily deflects the kobolds attack. Adrana on the other hand takes a direct shot to her belly.
Jocarra and Eclipse creep closer to the the remaining skirmishers. With a wave of her hand k1 finds himself seiged by spectral attackers.
With a vicious yell Lareth slashes wildly at the kobold before him trying to drive the foul creature back.
Kronag hops out of the trapped square, dodging the next wave of darts, and whirls a slingstone at Lareth's opponent.
Lareth and the wounded skirmisher exchange blows. It seems even on deaths door the kobold can easily defend again the warriors attacks.
Dodging the next volley of darts Kronag whips another shot. It catches the reptilian in the lower jaw, and sends it crashing to the ground!
|
With a flick of her wrist and an utterance of arcane formuale, Brazimal engulfes k1 in scorching flames
The thing let's a miserable sounding death cry and lays charred on the ground.
Adrana and Bruno quickly go to aid Lareth. Adrana tries to draw the reptiles attention so that Bruno gets a clear strike
The skirmisher yelps in pain but still manages to stay up
Corrin fires one last bolt of energy at the kobold.
Corrin burn a bolt of raw chaos through the last kobold's skull. It drops silently to the floor.
