[QUOTE="Sic_Pixie, post: 5926741, member: 52403"] [b]Taking down the Boss.[/b] The party can hear a droning chant coming from the floor above which sounds like spell casting so they are feeling cautious. They quickly apply a few healing spells and potions not wishing to waste any time and then scamper up the outside of the tower. On top of the tower is a henge; a circle of large 10ft tall standing stones with another large lintel stone laying on top of two upright stones. Seeing this the whole party clamber up onto the top of one of the lintel’s each as they arrange themselves in a semi circle around the two figures in the centre. One is the large werewolf they have previously encountered; the other is a smaller leaner affair with red fur her green eyes glowing with a mystical light as her arms are wreathed in crackling lightning which streams down from the heavens and strikes Sayuri on top of her lintel. Sayuri in response unleashes a lightning bolt from her hand directly at the Auburn furred female who tries valiantly to dive out of the way but still manages to catch some of the blast. For some reason the large werewolf takes a disliking to Kat who is still in the form of a fire elemental on top of her lintel and with a running jump manages to clamber up and loom over the small elemental that is Kat. Grinning he runs his tongue down his sword smearing the resulting bloody saliva on the blade as it drips down his chin. Kat as the werewolf is climbing up tries to poke her fire wreathed fingers into the creatures eyes but a turn of the head as they close only burns some of the hair on his face; Zordlan fires off a pair of arrows at the large werewolf and scores a good hit as one of the arrows remains stuck in his side while Grembor hefts a flask of fire in his direction. Pringle covers the area around the female in a dense cloud obscuring her from sight while Sayrui covers the area she was standing in grease causing a frustrated squeal followed by the sound of a body hitting the floor from within the fog. There is another bolt of lightning from the heavens which impacts upon Sayuri again which causes some minor damage. Our sword wielding werewolf strikes out at the fire elemental that is Kat and scores several hits causing Kat to teeter on the edge of the lintel almost driving her to her knees in its ferocity; the rest of the party seeing the effects of this re-double their efforts to save Kat. Zordlan fires off another pair of arrows one of which draws blood; Pringle sends some force missiles towards Kat’s opponent which impact with teeth jarring force; Grembor leaping from his perch to Kat’s swiftly scales the monolith and drives his silver blade deep into the creatures knee joint and viciously twists the blade as the large werewolf howls in agony and turns on it’s still strong leg and faces Grembor who is hung suspended below him on the lintel’s upright. Opening its mouth it howls its hate into Grembors face and is rewarded by a torrent of force missiles from Sayuri with impacts upon his face and shoulders with the sound of cracking bone the large werewolf collapses and drops to the floor inside the circle of standing stones with a defeated whimper. The wind this high up soon whips Pringles Fog spell away revealing the female werewolf who has managed to get beck to her knees; she notices the still form of the large werewolf lying not 10 paces from her and raises her paws to the sky in surrender. The party exchanges glances and accept the females capitulation and set about searching the werewolf and asking the female questions. They are most interested in the heart they have heard of and they are informed that it is being chased to the south east in an attempt to recover it; asking her name she advises them in a haughty tone that she is Cybrisa Dorzhanev the leader of the Dorzhanev clan of werewolves. They look at the fallen werewolf and they are advised that this werewolf (now back in the form of a man with a bushy silver streaked beard and lank hair) is non other than Mathus Mordrinacht the now ex claimant to be the Pack leader of the Shudderwood werewolves clans and flunky of the Whispering Way. They allow Cybrisa to leave once they have her word that she will be taking her werewolves away to the north but she does rip out Mathus’s heart prior to leaving and consumes it whole before the party. Several of the party looks away in disgust at the barbarism while Cybrisa grins to her self to see their reaction; she seems curiously interested in Grembors reaction. [/QUOTE]
