Strahd's "RttToEE"

Legend
Miltiades gasps in pain at the zombie's rasping claw strikes but holds tight to his crook symbol. He focuses his will and again it glows golden as positive energy flows out of him into the surrounding undead.
Turn check 7, turn damage 13 so affects undead of up to 4 HD with closest checked first and all the way out to 60 ft., still destroys 2HD undead. Does not provoke an AoO. If the tentacle horror flees though I bet Miltiades and the Wood Woad each get one on him.

Not knowing exactly how strong these walking corpses are... Ithiken makes an educated guess and sends all four magic missiles (4d4+4 damage) into the zombie nearest a horse. (10) He then observes the results to see if perhaps they are weaker than he thought, and might allow him to split the missiles up to two or more targets next round while still taking them out. (Knowledge check to determine any potential damage overkill)

Round 2
Not knowing exactly how strong these walking corpses are... Ithiken makes an educated guess and sends all four magic missiles into the zombie nearest a horse. The force missiles break the zombie’s ribcage but the apathy corpse keeps standing. It would require a little more damage to bring this one down.
Seeing his horse being attacked, and remembering that the dragon did to the other, the Kid leaps into action, dodging and weaving through the throng. "Get. Away. From. My. HORSE!". Thandis avoids the two undeads and stabs the zombie that attacks his horse. The dagger penetrates the hard dead skin but do little damage.
The gnome, realizing he is alone by the campfire, decides to inspire his allies with some poetics.
"There was an Old Man of Perren,
Who was thirsty, and called out for some beer;
But they brought it quite hot,
In a small copper pot,
Which disgusted that man of Perren."
One of the zombies pound Korbry’s horse on the back and the brave steed return a well placed hoof into the zombie’s skull, crushing the corpse’s jaw away.
The walking corpse with the tentacles jets forward to where Lenuran is, but the little historian dodge away from the creeping swirling thing. The wood creature comes to the rescue and slams his wooden club on the corpse, but the unholy toughness that engulfs the creature prevent major damage.
The warding hand is too weak to prevent from the massive oozing skeleton to advance. The creature stumbles forward and claws Ithiken with a successful slam. A wave of sickness engulfs the sorcerer from his bleeding and oozing wound but he shakes it off quickly.
Miltiades gasps in pain at the zombie's rasping claw strikes but holds tight to his crook symbol. He focuses his will and again it glows golden as positive energy flows out of him into the surrounding undead. 3 far zombies are destroyed, among them is the zombie that attacked Thandis’s horse. The others are too far or cannot see the holy light with all the dense of the forest.
Bulbous flesh-wrapped skeleton direct his attention to the jumping Kid and sinks his claws deep into the Kid’s side, causing enormous pain to the scout. Luckily for the Kid, he shakes off the nausea fog that threatens his mind.
His strength increased by his companion's spell, Korbryn bellows a dwarven warcry and whips Foehammer about him in a fury! The hammer lands on the zombie’s torso, sending a devastating pulse through the corpse’s body, breaking ribcage and spine, the zombie falls motionless and broken on the ground. The hammer swirls in the air and into the next target, the bulbous things sprays pus and unknown fluids on Korbryn as the hammer breaks inner bones and smash calluses.
The thing in return tries to claw Korbryn, but the dwarf’s armor protect him from the sharp nails.
The second tentacle horror grabs Miltiades shoulders with awesome strength and pin the priest on the ground. His two tentacles burst two holes in the priest’s body and penetrate deep to the the bones. A moment pass and Miltiadis feels hislife energy begin to slip from his body.
The wood creature slams his wooden club on the tentacle horror’s back, causing the undead to lose it’s grab from Miltiadis. He then calls in his tongue.
[sblock=Sylvan – Miltiades understands]
"Run now! Leave the forest ... more will come.
We'll show you the way"

The far zombies continue to slam the tied horses that try in return to struggle back with hooves and bites.
In the distance of the forest, other dark shapes begin to form and move slowly to where the “slaughter party” takes place. One of them look quite nasty, an undead you never saw before.

Korbryn growls, and focuses on the bulbous foe, knowing he must take it down quickly and get back to the others. He again sends his greatsword slashing in at the undead brute, propelled by his spell-enhanced strength.

Miltiades leaves the tentacled thing to the wood woad now that its tentacles have pulled out of his bones and moves closer to the horses. Drawing upon the last of his pure positive energy he blasts out another wave of holy light to ward off the zombies attacking the horses. "The tree people say they will hold them off for us to flee."
HP 16/29.
