[LPF] From Whence None Return

[jkason]

Weel Naxel, aasimar oracle

Weel frowns at the clanking sound, and the voices around him seem to take on a much tenser tone.

"What? Well, no, I wouldn't be upset at all if you took a few more precautions," he says to the air around him. The air around the north islander shimmers slightly in response. Then he squints.

"I still can't see what's making the angry noises," Weel says.
"Sir Catt... er, Jungle Warrior?" the broad-shouldered man asks, leaning forward a bit to Maui. "I'm not sure whatever's making that sound is friendly, and the more distance between us and it, probably the better. Maybe I can talk your little glowing friend into taking a little stroll closer, so we can see further down without stumbling?" As Weel points to the sunrod, Maui feels the slightest tug against it in his hand.

"We should probably watch out for the grates, too. They might be prickly like this one," Weel says, pointing back to the spikes.

[sblock=ooc]Weel casts Shield of Faith. +3 deflection to AC. Lasts 9 minutes with his last level up.

Weel's offering to use Mage Hand to float the sunrod further down the hall and shed light thataway to see what the clanking is without anyone having to move just yet. He should be able to keep it at its normal light radius away, possibly a bit further (I think he has a 45' range on the spell at present). We'd have to move slightly slower (the spell only allows propulsion at a 15' move), but with all the traps, it's probably better to move slower to spot those, anyway. [/sblock]

"Wow, tight fit here. Those spikes are a nasty bit of . . What's that sound? why is it getting loud . . .Oh, something wicked this way comes?" Vincenzo draws his rapier and moves forward to defend all of the others.

Maui, feeling the tug at the sunrod lets go and watches wide eyed as it floats down the passage. "Oh, very nice Door Whisperer" he mouths as he quickly finds his wand and begins furiously tapping Taniwha on the head with it causing the feline's wounds to lessen. If there is enough time he heals himself as well before putting it away and turning to face whatever it is that approaches.

[sblock=Actions] Use wand of CLW to heal as much as possible before encounter begins.

3 taps heals 21 hps taking him to max
1 tap for Maui heals 5 hps taking him to 57+5=62 hps

If there is time he will use another 2 taps to heal an additional 8 hps so 62+8=70 hps leaving 1 use left of wand.

"Well I suppose if people were falling into this pit like some kind of halflingoid shish kabob, it would make sense that something else would come along to enjoy the fine dining." The halfling cook moves himself to the front of those still wounded in order to provide protection while they heal up.

"I don't recall zombies ever clanking."

 

[kinem]

"In metal armor, it would" Menik replies.

 

[Scott DeWar]

"Well, I guess the last zombies I saw were swimming, so I guess they can walk on land with armor."

It doesn't take long for the thing moving to get through the spiked grates and into some light. It is about to emerge through the closest field of spikes. A skeletal form, this one isn't just bleached bones that is normally seen. A lot of the flesh is still attached to its previously elven body. Shiny armor on it glistens that should have rusted away years ago. The blade it carries has weathered the time well, but not the shield. The shield looks as decrepit as the creature carrying it.

[sblock=Menik]Two things strike you about this creature. It is a bloody skeleton, but a bit stronger than normal. They need to be hit with positive energy, or else they simply regenerate and reform no matter how well you smash the bones. They are immune to cold damage and any weapon other than bludgeoning doesn't work well against them.

Two: He is wearing Kyle's armor and shield.
[/sblock][sblock=Combat Round 1] The creature closed into sight in 2 rounds, so the rest of Maui's healing roles are saved for later if he continues on that path.
