[QUOTE="Sic_Pixie, post: 5921318, member: 52403"] [b]Assault on the Stairs of the Moon Part 1[/b] The group chill out for a few minutes while gaining their feet again; an inventory of items gets underway as they consider the climb to the top of the tower. Pringle gets the wand of spider climb that they found in the base of the tower and they consider their options (after identifying it). Having some idea of what they will be facing they plan on attacking from all sides. Ignoring the stairs they plan to climb the walls while Pringle climbs one side and unleashes a devastating spell; the rest of the party climb the other side and jump in and take them while their backs are turned. As far as plans go it’s a bit ropey but then it’s not my place to judge; so they scale the stairs of the moon without using the stairs as they scale the sheer walls like a bunch of spiders. Everyone but Pringle is on one side while Pringle climbs the opposite side. Peering over the edge Pringle can’t see anyone in the tower room but he has good authority that something’s there. Summoning forth his powers he casts a slowly rolling ball of flame into the room; this illuminates the area around it and he notices some movement that’s very close. Standing behind the upright practically adjacent to Pringle is a hybrid werewolf with silver grey fur who seemed to know Pringle was coming. (Possibly as he has little to no skills in stealth and was muttering to himself all the way up the tower) turning into the open window he bites down on Pringles head leaving large tooth marks which bleed profusely. With a scream Pringle ducks out of reach and climbs down a way as the blood runs into his eyes; Sayuri peering over the edge notices another trying to hide close to their position and quickly intones one of her favorite spells. The area beneath the werewolf is suddenly coated in a greasy layer which causes the creature to fall over; Grembor looks over the edge; seeing this he bounds up almost slipping on the floor himself; then pulling out his silver knife drives it into the werewolf’s back as it’s laying on the floor. With a twist of his knife when he pulls back a large spurt of blood follows it adding to the slipperyness of the floor. The werewolf howls in pain as the silver knife is driven into his suddenly tender hide. Kat decides to leave the group and investigate further up the tower as there is another level above this one. (Have I mentioned my dislike with splitting up the party before?) Crawling up the wall making almost no sound at all Kat makes it to the next level where she can see a pair of tough looking werewolves which seem to be preparing themselves for a fight. Kat tries sneaking back down but she knocks some debris loose which clatter down the wall causing both the figures topside to look in her direction. Zordlan at this point thinks it’s a good idea to follow Kat up and investigate so he starts clanking up the wall in his plate armor. Kat descending tells Zordlan to go down but the damage has been done as a Grey streaked wolfs head appears over the top of the wall looking down upon the pair. The werewolves in the lower level are in more of a bind however; the one on the floor before Grembor struggles to rise but fails slipping back down onto the floor with a crash; the one who bit Pringle moves to engage Sayuri and delivers a nasty bite on her arm; it’s friend lacking any space hangs back looking for an opening. Grembor delivers a couple of devastating blows to the werewolf on the ground while Pringle peeking into the room from outside moves the ball of fire to the same werewolf which causes it to scream as it expires with the pungent aroma of burnt fur. Kat transforming into a fire elemental vaults through the archway landing beside Sayuri who is trying to decide what to do with the wolf attached to her arm while Zordlan follows through landing gracefully the other side of Sayuri and drawing forth his sword with a flourish. Sayrui tries beating and kicking the werewolf but most of her blows just bounce off its tough hide as it worries at her arm. She is only able to release her arm when it tries to improve on its hold and she manages to extract her arm from its jaws. The remaining werewolf charges across the floor towards Grembor as it has just seen Grembor killing its mate by driving a silver dagger into its hide. Obviously this would infuriate the creature and it would like revenge so it tries with tooth and claw. Grembor smiling until he spies the swiftly approaching form readies for combat as the werewolf crashes into him knocking him from his feet as the werewolf’s teeth pierce his leg and hot blood showers over the wolfish features and down its throat.
