[LPF] From Whence None Return

Lem rushes forward to where the creature stands and engages, "I guess it was too much to hope that all the water would have flushed out everything out of here."

OOC: Lem moves from O12 to Q12, then attacks. 28 to hit, 6 points of blunt damage, followed by 3 points of fire damage.

"Aww, crud. Zombies. Why does there have to be zombies?"

Vincenzo moves forward 5 feet forward and lunges with a favored attack - the lunge sneak attack!

"Ha! HA! HO!!" He attacks forward with his prime blade, He has waited for a worthy opponent!

You can increase the reach of your melee attacks by 5 feet until the end of your turn by taking a –2 penalty to your AC until your next turn. You must decide to use this ability before any attacks are made.]

Though the monster appears to be an animated skeleton, Menik looks like he's seen a ghost.

"No. It can't be him! It's ...

It's ... a bloody skeleton. We'll need to use positive healing energy to stop it from healing itself and even re-animating. Like most skeletons, blunt weapons are more likely to smash it, but it will heal." Menik says.

The elven wizard casts a spell, sending four darts of energy into the undead and possibly tripping it.

"NOW you tell me?" Asks Vincenzo, with rapier in hand.

With three quick strikes and a bit of flame and four bolts of mana, the skeleton drops onto the grate. Even though several of the joints have come undone when it dropped, the individual bones are still wiggling or rocking, as if they want to come back together.

"Ok, its been knocked down. Menic, weren't you saying something about it reanimating if positive energy doesn't get used?"

"Yes. Maui, please put him out of his misery with a curative spell" Menik says. The normally phlegmatic elf sounds strangely emotional.

Weel Naxel, aasimar oracle

There is a spastic chattering around Weel's head, and the man in the mish-mosh armor clanks his way forward, swatting at something you can't see.

"All right! All right!" he says, then kneels down by the bloody skeleton. "The jibber jabbers are super upset about the robot without skin, so they want to make sure and turn it off," he says.

Weel holds a hand palm up, and a small swirl of glowing particles become visible. He lowers his hand to the skeleton's form, fingers touching its chest and forming a ramp, and the particles shoot into the form and disappear from sight. At roughly the same time, Maui's floating glow stick clatters to the floor.

[sblock=ooc]Weel casts Cure Light Wounds on the downed skelly. It sounds like he wouldn't need a roll, but just in case:

Maui, who had paused momentarily as he tensed ready to attack as the group bring down the clanking skeleton with brutal efficiency. When the skeleton drops he relaxes and continues using his magic stick to heal Taniwha, but stops again when Menik, seemingly near tears for some unknown reason asks him to heal the skeleton. Completely confused he turns to Menik to ask for an explanation but all he can manage in his bewilderment is 'What?" Luckily Weel and his jibber-jabbers understand the wizard's request and he casts the healing spell on the undead creature. He simply stands there gawking for a moment until it becomes clear what was meant and the threat is over. Still not completely understanding what went on Maui shrugs and continues tending wounds.

When Weel heals the skeleton, a black smoke rises out of it and dissipates. The bones crumble to dust and a second wisp of smoke rises, this time white. Left behind are a bit of dust, a set of fine, shiny chainmail, a fine sword, and a rusted out shield.

[sblock=Status] Applied Maui's third round of healing rolls.
