The ghoul hisses as Anaerion's protective aura flashes into place, holding up his clawed hands as if to avoid looking at the effect.
Meanwhile, Kanli looks calmly about as if just now noticing none of his comrades are nearby. He tilts his head and frowns at the sight of the ghoul, then strides forward evenly.
"The Granite Hierophant allies with the Seventeenth Circle so the frogs might teach him how to keep his skin wet and slimy!" he says, pointing to the grease patch Anaerion has summoned. He looks back up to the undead and frowns. "The earth is greedy and does not like things that unbury themselves."
The half-orc's hand glows, and he reaches out for the undead. Reaches further than he has any right to, as the Mad Prophet's limb stretches unnaturally. As with the protective field on the eidolon, however, the glowing hand creates an obvious, panicked aversion in the ghoul, who dodges the thrashing, whip-like limb.
Despite the eidolon's new protection, the ghoul turns on him with a frothing anger. "Stupid cat, I see your flank," he says. Indeed, the effort required to keep to his feet has left Gragnor less agile than normal, and the ghoul takes deadly advantage. Gragnor manages to avoid a slashing claw, but the maneuver sends him directly into the maw of the ghoul. His razor teeth close around the cat's neck even as his other claw opens up the eidolon's belly.
Gragnor lets out a groan as the ghoul releases his grip, and falls to the ground, his blood mixing with the greasy sheen of the floor.
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me!" the ghoul screeches, turning to Kalgor. Blood sprays across the air from his mouth as he does so. "Or I'll eat all of you, no matter how bad your living flesh tastes!"
[sblock=ooc]NPC'd Kanli with what I hope is a relatively safe move.
Actions:
Kanli: Move: to E11
Standard: CLW (10' reach for touch attack - Aberrant bloodline) vs. ghoul. Miss. I believe this means he retains the charge and can use it again.
Ghoul: Full attack vs. flat-footed Gragnor:
Bite hits (13 damage, + saves vs. disease & paralysis); claw misses; claw hits (18 damage + save vs. paralysis)
Gragnor takes 31 damage, dropping him to -5. He is now prone and dying. He also failed one of his paralysis saves (yes, I added in the Prot from Evil bonus. See status for duration).
Wow. That was far more effective than I thought it would be. Now I know why folks say Sneak Attack is a rogue's best feature.
Status:
Ghoul (AC 18): 37 damage, heavily wounded
Anaerion: 37/37
Ausk: 67/67
Gragnor: -5/26 Prone, dying, paralyzed (2 rounds remaining), Prot from Evil
Kalgor: 33/45
Kanli: 31/31, CLW charge on hand
Tyrien: 40/40[/sblock]
PCs up.
