ooc: Sorry again for the delays. I'll try to make it up to you, when rewards time rolls around. I blame newegg.com, who introduced all kinds of silly delays in delivering my new computer. But it's here now, and I expect to be updating tomorrow, work permitting. It shouldn't take more than a handful of combat rounds more. Unless you guys roll really badly, that is.

Round 7
Morvannon fires a curse, but the spell fails to take hold. He circles, moving deeper into the shadows that follow him.
Grakk sprints around the pit with a yell, bringing his sword down on the undead priest's back with a wet squelch.
Magnus cackles, and sends the flaming sphere into the pond after Slardazial. The foul liquid hisses and bubbles, sending off clouds of disgusting steam, but the fiery conjuration is not extinguished. Its lashing tentacles burn away bits of the robe covering the priest, exposing newly revivified flesh beneath.
Vixo circles, preparing for an opening.
Vrrsk't bellows a challenge, and strikes, his weapon flaring with divine power as it meets flesh. Slardazial screams hollowly as bits of his body seem to boil away around the holy blade. Vrrsk't steps aside, providing an opening.
Kamotz steps into that opening and swings his flail, chanting a prayer. His foot slips on a smear of blood at the wrong moment, though, and his flail smashes into the short stone pillar, stopping both strike and prayer.
Slardiazial's flesh smokes and curls as he ignores both the ball of flame behind him and the paladin's challenge, swinging his heavy sword twice. Both swings land, inflicting grievous wounds on Grakk and Magnus. The dwarf remains standing, though sorely injured, but Grakk's body cannot sustain the punishment. His eyes roll back in his skull and he crashes to the floor, insensate. As Grakk falls, a flicker of shadow, like a tendril of smoke given shape and direction, loops out from Slardazial towards Magnus, but the canny dwarf steps away, not allowing the shadow to touch him.
The girl on the altar struggles against her bonds without success; they are tight and strong. Seeing Grakk fall, she lets out a small scream, then shouts, "There are healing potions! On the shelves!" She tries to point, but she cannot work her hands in the right direction, and settles for jerking her head furiously towards the northeast corner.
[sblock=ooc]Last round: at the end of his turn, Slardazial saves vs. slowed.
Adrenaline surges: Morvannon takes an AP. Grakk regains avalanche strike. Vixo regains Second Wind, as does Magnus. Haven't heard from Kamotz or Vrrsk't, so Kamotz will regain Healing Strike, and Vrrsk't will regain his AP.
Morvannon misses, and moves to U15.
Grakk uses Combat Sprint to run around the pit and charge, hitting for 15 damage.
Magnus uses the flaming sphere to hit for 14 fire damage.
Vixo double moves, waiting for an opportunity to flank. (Because I didn't hear from Brain.)
Vrrsk't divine challenges Slardazial and attacks with holy strike: 28 vs. AC hits for 14 radiant, and 5 more from vulnerability, which works again now that the ritual is over.
Kamotz moves in and uses Healing Strike: nat 1 misses. Oops.
Slardazial takes 8 fire from the flaming sphere. He uses double attack against Grakk and Magnus, taking 6+5 radiant from Vrrsk't for ignoring Divine Challenge. 18 vs. AC hits Grakk for 17 damage. He falls unconscious. 24 vs. AC hits Magnus for 12 damage, bloodying him. Finally, he uses Grasping Coils on Magnus: 11 vs. Reflex misses.

ooc: Thanks Covaithe for finishing this adventure off. I see that you had to do the same with CaBaNa's Lauto adventure as well. I'm assuming that we have to roleplay Vrrsk't and Kamotz the rest of the way then.
ooc: If Kamotz uses sacred flame and hits the cleric, he does 1d6+5 radiant damage and is able to give an ally 2 temp hp. Can he grant the 2 temp hp to Grakk?

"Grakk!" shouts Morvannon as the goliath falls twitching. "You'd better be right, girl!" he calls as he makes for the shelves at a run, sending a bolt of energy to glance weakly off Slardaziel's shoulder as he goes.

[sblock=Temp HP]He can, but they won't get Grakk up on his feet. Your actual HP total doesn't change when you get temporary HP.[/sblock]

ooc: What he said. I guess I should have had Kamotz take a healing word back instead of healing strike; sorry about that.
