Doral, Kraken
[SBLOCK]
Flinging your hand over your shoulder, a trio of missiles fly from your wand and strike the figure full in the chest. His mouth opens wide, though no cry of pain can be heard. In return, he flips his dagger up by the handle and flings it at you with an expert throw. The blade strikes your back, piercing you just above your left kidney. The weight of the handle pulls it free leaving a deep gash. Kraken plucks up the blade, glad to have a weapon once more. His falchion is now white hot and waves of heat are flowing from it. He grimaces, but leaves it be for now.
The two of you emerge once more into the main cavern. Midian, Glaive, and Whisper are gathered at the far end and are fending off a massive skeletal beast with wide wings and a vulture-like head.
Behind you, the cultist continues to advance, and from the shadows behind him you can see his companion approaching.
Know. The Planes DC10

You believe the base creature is known as a Vrock, a demon. Known to have many powers in life, you can only guess at what this undead form might still be capable of. The nodules growing on the bones may be a remnant of the feared spores that Vrocks are known to carry. Hopefully death has weakened their potency!

OOC: You are on the far side of the 100' chamber. The creature is just inside the tunnel 90' away, the rest of the group is slightly closer at 70'. Roll new initiatives to join the others.
You're reunited now, so I'll be posting group messages once more. the climax fast approaches!

Midian, Glaive, Whisper
[SBLOCK]
On the periphery of your vision you notice two figures hurrying from the tunnel across the chamber. Doral is surrounded by indistinct figures, the effect of some spell you think. Kraken has lost his falchion but is now carrying a wavy-bladed dagger. There is movement farther down the tunnel behind them.
The creature shrieks in rage as Garuk plows into it and pounds with meaty fists. The thick bones of the creature reverberate under the powerful blows, but it is barely slowed by the attack. The air suddenly turns acrid with the smell of ozone as arcs of electricity form directly over the creatures head. A mighty flash of light and clap of thunder follows as the energy arcs from air to ground; passing through the creature. It lets out an ear piercing shriek! Turning, it ducks its head in and tears at Garuk's chest. It's foul talons rake and shred the gorilla. They come apart, Garuk's fists flaked with bits of bone and rock, while the creature's talons drip blood and gore.
Whisper calls out arcane phrases and twists the air around the fiend. Swirling vortices of teeth emerge and rake the creature as it ducks and weaves, trying to avoid them. Glaive cries out and points at the creature. A vibration in the air leaps from his finger and races at the creatures chest. You hear a distinct crack as it strikes through the chest to shake the crystal within. The cloud around the creature thickens, as if the spell shook free some dust from its growths.
OOC: Midian, make a fortitude save for Garuk.
Kraken and Doral have entered the chamber from the far side 70' away from you.
You're reunited now, so I'll be posting group messages once more. the climax fast approaches!
