OOC: Assuming that Keldar charges towards the cleric, Eliyyad will retarget the Fireball - ground zero is now L9, instead of K10. That should hit the four visible opponents and just miss the doughty Keldar!

Round 1

Trying to pinpoint from where the voice came Keldar fails with all the echo and other calls for battle, so he decides to focus on the big snarling and taunting Minotaur. Moving forward with impressive agility, Keldar smash his spiked chain on the surprised Minotaur.

Eliyyad grunts and begin to motion the practiced motions of his favorite spell, sending fiery death flying towards the enemy.

Garon draw his sword and rush for the Minotaur by the tree, the Minotaur’s Dire flail arch the surrounding, Garon tries to dodge the flail while he charges the big humanoid but the Dire weapon smashes into his plate, causing his own armor to cut his flesh. The veteran fighter nails his sword deep into the Minotaur’s shoulder causing the large creature to snarl in pain.

The agile drow moves behind the far tree, with amazing dexterity and quickness she nocks an arrow to her bow and fires, the arrow slices the air straight into Eliyyad’s waist.

Seeing how things do not quite work as expected, Allyra quickly dimishes her plans and moves a few steps, while casting a different spell, turning herself invisible as well.

You Pay Human, You pay Hard!! Calls the horny horror and lashes his big flail towards Garon, The big flail opens a big bleeding gash in the fighter’s head, two more blows like this will send Garon to the plain of Acadia.

“Die, in the name of the Old one” From behind you, floating 20 ft. up in the mid air, a blurring wavering figure that looks like a half-Orc wizardess appears, she chants and points toward Eliyyad, the Baklunish’s ears tickle but no more.

The Cleric of Hextor moves to engage Garon as well, he swings his heavy flail towards the fighter, missing Garon’s head by an inch.

The wounded Orc shouts and rages and rushes to where Eliyyad and Turo are. Despite being hit by Keldar’s chain the Orc barbarian continue towards his targets.

Strahd, you might as well just move Turo to the head of the initiaitve order from this point on, since he was last, and just assume he delay until the start of round 2.


Turo grasps his holy symbol, and calls upon his diety to intervene and deal with the two nearest foes. "Garl Glittergold, smite down thy servants foes with your divine might!" With those words thus spoken, the gnome cleric channels the power of his god into a burst of holy energies!


Cast Defensively (concentration +13 vrs DC 19) Holy Smite for 3d8 damage + 1 round blindness versus evil creatures within a 20 ft. radius. Will Save DC 18. Centered to affect both Bella and Ho-Gorrrl.

Allyra

Looks like they could need some help... Allyra thinks and rapidly casts one of her powerful summon spells. Only moments later, a large lion with silvery fur - quite unlike her usual choices - appears behind the raging orc and immediately charges into him, pouncing onto its victim and attacking with its powerful claws and fangs.


OOC: Allyra: Cast Summon Monster IV rapidly (Augmented Celestial Lion appears at L17 (or K16-17/L16-17 due to size)), Move to J17, remain invisible.

Round 2

Turo grasps his holy symbol, and calls upon his deity to intervene and deal with the two nearest foes. "Garl Glittergold, smite down thy servants foes with your divine might!" With those words thus spoken, the gnome cleric channels the power of his god into a burst of holy energies! Both the Half orc wizardess and The barbarian Orc seems to be affected but both are still alive, though the big orc grasps his eyes in pain.

Keldar takes a step west so he can flank the Minotaur, he swings his chain in the air but the big creatures deflects the two blows with his own weapon.

Eliyyad steps back from the orc and casts Mirror Image. Suddenly there are 7 portly mages to contend with.

Now that Keldar has given the Minotaur something else to think about, Garon will press his attack fully. The first swing caught the big creature unprepared, but for the second one he is ready.

The Drow female jogs quickly to a flanking position on Garon, her attack is swift but ineffective, her sword bounce back from Garon's shield.

Looks like they could need some help... Allyra thinks and rapidly casts one of her powerful summon spells. Only moments later, a large lion with silvery fur - quite unlike her usual choices - appears behind the raging orc and immediately charges into him, pouncing onto its victim and attacking with its powerful claws and fangs. The poor Orc brute never adds a chance. The lion rips and tears flesh and bones, leaving a defaced orc body on the ground.

You poor human. Shouts the Minotaur and concentrates on Keldar, he swings the dire flail in the air, certainly you realize that he masters the quality of this weapon in the most efficient way, the flail pounce and crush on Keldar's body, almost breaking the human apart.

From up above, the badly injured wizardess, calls in anger. Despair on your souls, a vibrating invisible energy cone spreads from her hands and wash Eliyyad and Turo, it feels like a wave of sad thoughts, while Turo's divine protection shakes off the terrible feeling, Eliyyad falls into sadness and agony.

Looking above the Minotair shoulder, the Cleric of Hextor spots the celestial lion that killed his Orc friend, with a single wave and a shout "Begone!" the Lion disappears from sight.

Turo hopes his melee-oriented companions realize that he can't reach them to provide healing right away, and hopes that they will take care until he can aid them. Still, he would try; Leaving Eliyyad to deal with the flying wizard, the gnome cleric moves toward the melee, praying to Garl Glittergold as he goes. Channeling another Holy Smite, Turo blasts the area of the melee with celestial power.



Move to M16; Spontaneously cast Holy Smite for 3d8 damage + 1 round blindness versus evil creatures within a 20 ft. radius. Will Save DC 18. Centered to affect Analia, Saakrah, and Guthorm.

The weeping mages turn and with a howl cast lightning into the air, seeking to fry the source of such despair.
