Daunton's Dead Shadow (DM:Ukingsken, Judge:????)

Morvannon reels back from the demon's horrific assault, and his blast in return goes wild, streaking past the demon's head and fizzling out against the far wall. Wincing, he shakes his head vigorously to clear it.

*Ugh, what was that?!?*
*unclean. foul. burn it from the world!*
*Well yes, I grasped that. I meant more specifically...*

[sblock=Actions]Standard: Cast Eldritch Blast against demon, hitting Reflex 11 for 20 damage. Misses badly, even with combat advantage.

Nice! And thanks for the info on being dazed. I thought for some reason that the dazed effect only lasted for one turn.

Magnus reeled under the potency of the evil speech that fouled his mind. His already fractured thoughts struggled to retain some semblance of concentration and continue the assaulting whirl of shards. The spell's potency was marred by the attack on his mind, which was in turn drowned out by other denizens of that broken mindscape.

Cloud of Daggers: vs Ref [Target: H8] (1d20+6=11)
Miss.
Effect: The power’s area is filled with sharp daggers of force. Any creature that enters the area or starts its turn there takes force damage equal to Magnus' Wisdom modifier (3 Damage). The cloud remains in place until the end of Magnus' next turn. He can dispel it earlier as a minor action.

Save vs Daze (1d20=20)

I still hear whatever symbol the demon spoke in my head, a fresh gout of blood spurts out Kamotz' nose. The shifter considers that this Demon may have just said it's own name, What is your name, and how do you spell it? asks Kamotz, anticipating the demon's demise.

Round 3

Vrrsk't flares with divine power, throwing off the dizziness and striding confidently forward. He swings his flail, connecting solidly with the demon's chest. The impact is bolstered by a flash of golden light, and it is clear that the demon is hurt badly.

The barbarian rises, tottering, and though he appears near death, he charges with a roar. His blow glances harmlessly off the demon's horns, but Vrrsk't's hand, glowing with divine power, finds Grakk and fills him with new strength.

Kamotz staggers closer as well, and calls on his mightiest holy power. Kamotz stumbles over the wording a bit, and the demon is unscathed, but Kamotz feels fresh vigor fill his limbs, and sees Grakk and Vixo similarly restored.

Morvannon fires another blast, but it goes awry. He shakes his head, clearing it.

Magnus conjures more spinning razor shards, but they do not pierce the demon's hide.

[sblock=ooc]Vrrsk't saves, crits the demon with radiant smite for 27 damage, and readies lay on hands with an AP.

Grakk stands, and charges with an AP. Note that G6 isn't flanking with Vixo -- not that it matters, since you get CA from the dazed condition anyway. And it still misses. Anyway, Vrrsk'ts readied action fires, he spends a surge and Grakk gains 8 HP. Grakk saves vs. dazed.

Kamotz spends an AP to fire off Beacon of Hope. It's a miss, but Kamotz, Grakk, and Vixo all regain 9 HP, and Kamotz's healing powers are at +5 for the encounter. Kamotz and Grakk are no longer bloodied. Kamotz fails his save vs. dazed.

Morvannon misses, but saves vs. dazed.

Magnus misses, but the cloud of daggers is still there.

Vixo is up.

Round 3, continued

Vixo viciously stabs the demon in its calf, twisting his blade before withdrawing it from another bleeding wound. He ducks toward the altar, ready to strike again.

The demon, bleeding from half a dozen wounds, whirls its hammer in a great circle again, knocking Grakk, Kamotz, and Vixo to the floor. It strides past Vrrsk't as it passes, turning its burning eyes on the paladin. Vrrsk't does not flinch from the demon's gaze, but his flail whistles past its knee and shatters one of the floor tiles with a crunch.

[sblock=ooc]Vixo hits for 17 damage.

Demon recharges pulverize. It takes 3 damage from cloud of daggers. It uses circle of pain, close burst 2 vs. AC: Rolls. Grakk and Vixo are hit and take 5 damage and are pushed 1 and knocked prone; Vrrsk't and Kamotz are missed. Whoops, Kamotz is dazed, CA makes that a hit on him, too. Vixo's riposte hits AC 28 for 5 damage. Then it moves, provoking an OA from Vrrsk't, which misses. Finally, The demon uses smoldering gaze on Vrrsk't, natural 1. Bah!

Everyone is up.

"Oh, crap," stammers Morvannon as he sees the monstrous demon walking towards him. Backed into the corner, he frantically gestures to create a blinding flash of light. Unfortunately for him, the demon shields its own eyes with one arm, and its return blow leaves a bloody wound along Morvannon's scalp. Wincing, the half-elf staggers to one side and unleashes another blast of raw energy.

[sblock=Actions]Standard: Cast Eyebite against the demon: hits Will 11 for 9 damage, or more to the point doesn't hit. Demon's opportunity attack (boo threatening reach) hits Morvannon's AC for 9 damage. Morvannon is bloodied.

Vrrsk't interposes himself between the demon and the casters, hoping to give them time to move away from it. He swings his flail near the demon to no effect.
