[LPF] Waking the Dead

kinem · Oct 26, 2012

Menik shoots another force dart at the undead boy. Knowing that he's now used five today and can shoot just two more of the darts, he curses his lack of preparation for this.

The boy screams like a mad-man and attacks Dolgrin wildly. His claws scrape harmlessly against the dwarf's armor but the boy sinks his teeth into an exposed section of Dolgrin's arm and causes a nasty wound. At the bite Dolgrin begins to feel a tingling sensation in his fingers and toes...

Lem realizes that the girl's undead flesh is resistant to the bruising effects of his attempt to subdue. She continues to scream and curse at Lem as she rips at the goo holding her. With one claw she breaks off the remaining goo then throws herself at Lem slashing with the other hand and trying to bite the halfling. Both attacks fail to hit the dodging monk.

Menik shoots another force missile at the boy ghoul. I hope he can't take much more, since it looks like we're in trouble.

Seeing that Menik is focusing on the boy ghoul whike chanting a spell, Dolgrin shifts his weight slightly, swinging his axe towards the girl.

OOC: Darn it, I don't get weapon improvisation until level 3 and he's out of tanglefoot bags.

Lem continues to punch at the girl, trying to give Dolgrin a chance to flank. "Keep talking creature. I can keep this up all day."

As quickly as it began it now ends: Menik's force missile blasts into the boy knocking him off his feet. The creature sprawls on the ground unmoving. Dolgrin and Lem focus on the girl and their concentrated attacks drop her before she even has a chance to continue to scream imprecations at them.

With the sudden end of the battle silence falls upon the graveyard. Tasanto lies between the two undead creatures and it is uncertain whether he still breaths. The torch in his outstretched hand gutters in the dirt.

Deuce Traveler · Oct 31, 2012

Lem rushes up to Tasanto to stop the bleeding. "I think he's going to be ok, but we need to get him back into the village. What are we going to tell the mom, though?"

"We'll tell her the truth. We didn't kill these kids, they were dead already.

I guess we know now what condition the others that vanished are in. We could certainly use a priest to help with this. Maybe there's one in town."

Menik will help carry Tasanto.

[sblock=ooc]I hope they have a healer or potions in the village. I had used up all of mine in the first fight. Otherwise, bed rest is going to take a while.[/sblock]

"She saw what shape they were in," Dolgrin says as he kneels to the ground, taking off the cloak he wears over his armor and uses it to cover the body of one of the children. "I'm certain that she knows. We do, however, need to get some of the men in the village to help bury them. A priest could help with that," he adds as he turns to Tasanto's unconscious body, "as well as our injured friend."
