Lyrique ?
Sildarin 17
Ellie ?
Charlotte 8
Rallyn 1
Victor 1
Zombies 0

Rallyn strikes at the first zombie as it charges in, dealing a serious blow to the undead creature. (12 points with Lyrique's Inspire Courage) As it lurches against the set spear, and comes slavering forward, Victor slashes awkwardly around Rallyn's guard with his longsword and nearly severs the monster's neck.

It still claws feebly at Rallyn, missing because it's impaled on the spear. Three more of the abhorrent monstrosities charge forward, all of them crashing headlong and mindless of risk to themselves. Only one manages to hit Victor.

Victor takes 6

In the flickering light of the candle, the group can see a wave of similar undead lurching uncontrollably about in the darkened recesses of this stench-filled cavern.

Clarifications: Sorry, I'm spacing today. Charlotte is still manifesting the AC. Ellie is OOC for now until Novyet is better.

Re: Lyrique

The rope ends well before the shaft does. Lyrique lets loose of the rope and shoots down the shaft at a phenomenal rate, skittering from side to side. He maintains his concentration on his singing and lands light as a feather at the bottom of the sloped hallway.

Still need an initiative rank for Lyrique

Sorry I forgot We roll them not you. Init = 8+2 dex = 10

"One astral construct, coming down!" Charlotte calls down once she finishes manifesting.

She commands the construct to go down and help the rest of the group fend off the undead.

"And another one coming up!"

Manifests AC I, with flying.

After this second manifestation, I have 1 PP left.

Sildarin rolls his eyes.
"One more? Up the shaft!"
Unless something very special happens, I'll keep levitating people up from the shaft.

"One more? Up the shaft!"

"I can get you three total," Charlotte calls down, "but that's it! You're going to have to get out of there soon, my constructs won't last too long!"

"You got tagged, Victor, you're 'it'." Rallyn's face is knotted with concentration as the sea of undead flickering in the light behind these first ranks comes into view. Holy Mother save us!

"See if you can get up the shaft using your hands on the ceiling like Charlotte is doing..." Rallyn gives a half-smile of reassurance in between defending himself.

"Since you are all so closely grouped... Let's--," Rallyn lifts his foot, which bursts into green flame, then slams it down, "BOWL!"

As Rallyn's boot smashes into the ground it sounds like an avalanche as green fire blasts out along the ground in a 20' cone.

Manifesting Defensively: 18 (7 roll + 11 mod), pass. Manifest stomp. Reflex Save (DC 19) or be thrown to the ground. 20 foot cone into the undead. The would take subdual from the fall, but undead are immune to subdual.

Rallyn grins fully this time and shouts, "Get up the shaft! I need room to squeeze up too!" He turns back to face the horde fully focused on just defending himself. I just hope I can reach the ceiling... At least these guys don't look like they've ever made it out of here. I don't wanna die...

Sildarin levitates another member up the shaft, this time Ellie, who like Charlotte clings to the ceiling of the slanted tunnel. Being low on power as well, Ellie scrambles up out of the way. Now that she has her hands on the ceiling, it's a fairly simple climb, although her booted feet won't stick, so she has to climb slowly to maintain a grip.

Seems easist to pull the noncombatant out first, if that's ok?

Lyrique needs to declare an action and roll whatever is appropriate.

Lyrique needs to declare an action and roll whatever is appropriate.

[OOClease discribe what Lyrique can see and hear. He is moving to the combat and depending on what he can see he will either start pulling people from the hole or start whiping the zombies.]

 

[Lichtenhart]

"Hey I called you because I couldn't find a way up the tunnel, but now that we got it, let's run away from here! Rallyn go! I'll cover your retreat. Who's singing?"

Victor fights on the defensive trying to keep the zombies from clawing anyone else.

atk 9+4+1-4=10 wheeeww Rallyn got +2 on AC thanks to Lyr while he disengages (aid another)
