Until First Light (DM: TwoHeadsBarking. Judge: renau1g)

[TwoHeadsBarking]

Iaros stands tall in face of the attacks against him, although the nearby zombie is already beginning to crumble, as is the one being targeted by Lily and Zhen.

Then the corpses retaliate. Zhen is able to step aside from his opponent's attacks, but both D'keth and K'atzn'ii are hit with powerful blows. The one engaging Lith swings at the mass of shadows, but doesn't connect with anything substantial

Iaros smiles at the group and explains,"Knowledge leads to power. I'm simply taking a shortcut." A bolt of unnatural red lightning lashes out at Raijin, wounding the sorcerer and binding him in place.

[sblock=Status]Initiative:
D'keth (19/29)
Empathy (24/24)
K'atzn'ii (21/31)
Lily (36/36)
Zhen (24/24)
Raijen (15/22, immobilized (save ends))
Iaros
Risen 54 (-25, bloodied)
Risen 66 (-11, Aegised (D'keth))
Risen 77 (-27, bloodied, -2 to attacks)
Risen 94

All attacks except those against Iaros hit, although Zhen's only hit because of the CA granted by Lily.

Risen 54 attacks Zhen and misses. Risen 66 shifts to I12 and attacks D'keth, hitting AC 23 for 10 damage. Risen 77 charges K'atzn'ii, hitting AC 20 for 10 damage. Risen 94 shifts to H9 and attacks Lith, but misses.

hitting Reflex 22 for 7 necrotic damage, and Raijin is immobilized, save ends.[/sblock]

 

[johnmeier1]

Raijin tries to move his legs unsuccessfully, his eyes begin to glow and lines of energy appear on his hands. Electricity crackles over his body and between his limbs. You are ignorant of true knowledge and power. I will show them to you. He looks towards the gith ahead of him K'atzn'ii, move aside!

D'keth absorbs the blow with grim determination as he concentrates on the undead in front of him. With Raijen next to him, the swordmage focuses his energy on a ring of force the explodes out of his blade and into the enemy.

He then steps away from his foe, hoping it follows him to give Raijen some breathing room.

"Fun!" chimes Empathy happily, as she takes a cue from Raijin and decides to blast the same area with psychic energy, hoping to punish the risen and causing them to become confused and less sure of their orientation. Before she does, she glances at the Risen in front of Lily's spirit companion and suddenly it is moved bodily into the blast area.

[sblock=ooc]Free: Forceful Push -> slide risen 94 to I10

Same as Raijin: standard: dishearten in the same area as soon as K'atzn'ii isn't in the blast area (sorry K'atzn'ii to force you to move!) 9 vs. Will on risen 77 and 8 vs. will on risen 66, and 20 vs. will on risen 94 (rolled separately, sorry). If that hits, risen 77 would take 7+3 (+3 from spirit companion) = 10 damage, risen 66 and 94 would take 7 damage, and all would have -2 to attacks (in addition to any other minuses).

[Oni]

Blah blah blah, in other words you're a jerk.

Lily raised the skull she used as a focus once more, anger flashing in her eyes. She whispered an invocation and the skull trembled in her grasp then two angry, ghostlike spirits burst from it howling and tearing through the air toward the zombies. Slamming into their targets they ripped and tore with spectral claws. The thing called Lith lurched forward hungrily, plunging into the melee, its inky mass changing form fluidly as tendrils and teeth menaced and distracted the enemies around it.

[sblock=ooc]

Twin Panthers: vs Ref [Target: First attack Risen 54, Second attack Risen 54 if it's still standing otherwise the next closest bloodied target (or non-blooded if bloodied is not available, -3 to attack in that case).] (1d20+7+3=30, 1d20+7+3=18)
attack 1: crit! Damage (1d10+13=16)

Until the end of Lily's next turn, she and her allies have combat advantage when making melee attacks against any enemy adjacent to her spirit companion.

move: Lily moves to F11, Lith moves to J11.

[sblock=Lily's Spirit Primer (Please Read!)]
Spirit companions are complex critters, so this is to remind everyone, myself included, of the important points. The first three items are probably the most relevant to the other players.

• Any of Lily's allies who start their turn adjacent to her spirit companion can shift 1 square as a free action, as the first action during their turn.
• Any of Lily's allies adjacent to her spirit companion gain a +3 bonus to their damage rolls against bloodied enemies.
• Lily's spirit companion occupies 1 square, Lily's allies may move through its space, but her enemies may not.
• Lily's spirit companion may be targeted by melee and ranged attacks. If a single attack deals 11 or more damage to Lily's spirit companion it disappears and Lily takes 6 damage. Otherwise her spirit companion is unaffected by the attack.
• Lily's spirit companion uses Lily's defenses.
• Any enemy that leaves a square adjacent to Lily's spirit companion without shifting is subject its Spirit Fang attack. (This is an opportunity action and so may used once per turn, rather than once per round. Since there is no reason not to take this attack DM please feel free to roll them as necessary.)
• Lily's spirit companion is unaffected by terrain and environmental phenomena.

[RickRoll]

K'atzn'ii groans in pain as the reanimated corpse attacks, but smiles as her brother moves behind the enemy, that Empathy just so brilliantly slid next to her. The emotions built up in her, the pain of betrayal, the flood of memories it brought back, her father's broken, bloodied face flew into her mind and in a shout of rage, pure, unadulterated energy exploded outwards, slamming into the undead. The gith took the opportunity to step away from the foes, noticing both Empathy and Raijin looking at her direction and arcane/psionic energies ready.

She quickly traces a sigil in the air and one of the undead feels drawn to her.

Zhen sees the spirits consume the undead before him, and he quickly finds another target, his fists pummeling the unnatural creature.

"Do all employers in this land try to kill you as part of the application process?"

[sblock=Mechanics]Assuming that Lily killed Risen 54... and waiting until after Raijin and Empathy do their blasty thing...

Move action - Move to J12.

CW R66 (CA) (1d20+4+2=25, 1d10+4=5)

Hits Fort 25 for 5 damage, not exercising my option to push, and on a hit apply Flurry of Blows for another 7 damage.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC] Who knows how many of them are dead now? I guess Raijin can attack Risen 94 1d20+5=14 Reflex for same damage since he is in the blast when the readied action is triggered

[TwoHeadsBarking]

Iaros watches in stunned amazement as nearly every zombie collapses under a cavalcade of furious attacks. "No! This cannot be!" he screams as he rushes forward, raising the crystal high. The energies are released in a shockwave that pushes D'keth across the room, although he is not badly hurt.

Another tendril of lightning erupts from the crystal and arcs to the fallen corpse by the stairs. It stands, still showing wounds from its spectral assailants, and barrels towards Lily, who is able to avoid the clumsy creature.

The other zombie attempts to bludgeon K'atzn'ii, but it is unable to pierce her defenses.

[sblock=Status]Initiative:
D'keth (17/29)
Empathy (24/24)
K'atzn'ii (21/31)
Lily (36/36)
Zhen (24/24)
Raijen (15/22)
Iaros
Risen 54 (-36, bloodied)
Risen 66 (-56, dead)
Risen 77 (-53, dead)
Risen 94 (-33, bloodied, -2 to attacks)

Wow, that was a good turn. You guys killed every Risen but 94, whom you bloodied.

Iaros moves to K13 and attacks D'keth, Raijen, and Zhen. He only hits the D'keth with a 15 vs Will. D'keth takes 2 damage and is pushed to F10. As a minor he Reanimates Risen 54.

Risen 54 charges Lily and misses badly. Nice damage though.

Risen 94 attacks K'atzn'ii, to no avail.[/sblock]

 

[garyh]

Zhen decides it's time to take down Iaros himself, especially if he can keep reanimating these zombies. The half-orc slams his fist into Iaros' chest, knocking him back. Zhen then circles around and moves to the other side of Iaros, hoping an ally with help surround him.

"Let us slay the body of the hydra, instead of lopping off heads," he calls out to the others.

[sblock=Mechanics]Standard action - Crane's Wings against Iaros.

CW Iaros (1d20+4=18, 1d10+4=8)

Hits Fort 28 for 8 damage, pushing him to L13, and on a hit apply Flurry of Blows for another 7 damage.

Move action - (assuming I did hit and push) Move to M13.[/sblock]
