Frozen Whispers (adventure)

The gnome completes her spell, and a giant bombardier beetle appears next to the giant skeletal creature. It is golden-carapaced, tougher and stronger than a typical specimen—quite a creature to see! Directed by Belisha, the beetle lunges forward and lays a particularly nasty bite on the evil skeletal creature, tearing away chunks of rotting grey flesh.

After putting her candle and bag back away, Belisha fires off a pair of magic missiles at the beast. The bolts of energy flash through the air and strike the monster directly in the chest.

The bony figure twists and yowls in pain, clearly surprised at the havoc created by the little gnome.



OOC Notes:

Celestial Beetle
Bite with Smite Evil hits (AC 16, Atk roll 18 + 4 = 22)
4 hp damage (Dmg roll [1d4+3] 4 + 3 = 7 hp, DR 5, Smite Evil 2)
Boneclaw reduced to
99
hp


Belisha
Casts
magic missile
7 hp damage (Dmg roll [2d4+2] 4 + 1 + 2 = 7 hp)
Boneclaw reduced to
92
hp


Hardin, you’re up.

BTW, none of the furniture spaces are considered blocked, but the spaces with white triangle symbols are difficult terrain, due to the presence of the broken up furniture on the floor. The fireplace spaces ARE blocked.

Hardin steps forward cautiously and places his hand on Eolan, letting healing energy flow through him.

OOC: 5' step NE, drop Protection from Chaos to cast Cure Light Wounds on Eolan for 1d8+3 points of healing. Concentration check at +10 against DC 16 to cast defensively. Warhammer attacks at +4 for 1d8+1 force damage.

The glowing warhammer continues to flail away at the skeletal creature, but is still unable to land a solid blow.

However, Moradin grants Hardin’s prayer of healing, and the energy directed through the cleric is particularly effective—enough to bring the knight almost up to full health!



OOC Notes:

Hardin
Spiritual warhammer misses (AC 16, Atk roll 9 + 4 = 13)
Makes 5’ step
Casts
cure light wounds defensively (DC 16, Concentration check result 12 + 10 = 22)
9 hp damage healed (die result [1d8+3] 6 + 3 = 9 hp)
Eolan restored to 25 hp

Rufus
Continues to perform Guard [Belisha]

Slyfen, you’re up.

Slyfen takes careful aim through the doorway (5' step or move action if it would make the shot easier) and let fly an arrow at the creature.

The elf takes a very difficult shot--and misses badly. Slyfen's arrow flies straight into the doorframe, where it's shaft splinters.



OOC Notes:

Slyfen
Magic weapon round 1 of 10
Longbow firing into melee misses (AC with cover 20, Atk roll 8 + 6 – 4 = 10)
Arrow damaged (50% chance, die result 12%)

Eolan, you’re up. Now that you guys know what you’re up against, starting next round, we’ll go back to round-by-round instead of person-by-person.

Nodding a look of thanks to Hardin, Eolan challenges the creature with a shout, "Begone foul mockery of life!" The knight swings his bastard sword at the creature again.

Eolan swings away at the creature again, but its tough skin and bones prove a match for the sword. The skeletal figure turns its attention to the dangerous beetle, sending two bony claws through its golden body. The beetle shudders and makes a loud screeching noise as it is momentarily skewered to the wooden floor of the lodge. As the claws retract, the celestial being drops to the floor, motionless and dying.



OOC Notes:

Eolan
Bastard sword misses (AC16, Atk roll 4 + 6 = 10)

Boneclaw
Full-round attack
Piercing claw with Power Attack (AC 16, Atk roll 16 + 7 = 23)
14 hp damage (Dmg roll [2d6+7] 5 + 2 + 7 = 14 hp)
Piercing claw with Power Attack (AC 16, Atk roll 13 + 7 = 20)
12 hp damage (Dmg roll [2d6+7] 1 + 4 + 7 = 12 hp)
Celestial beetle reduced to -9 and is dying

Alright, let’s go to round by round now. So I need actions for everybody.

Belisha gasps in astonishment as the creature slays the beetle just like that. She takes out a bit of spiderweb from her pouch and casts her web spell at the far left corner of the room (radius 20') to entangle the creature and buy her comrades some time to get out of the room.

"Get out Eolan and Hardin! It cannot be defeated by us in hand to hand combat! We will strike at it from outside the door!" she shouts before she casts her spell.

She takes a 5' step back after.

I'm afraid, Narkus, she mindspeaks to the owl, very afraid.

If the knight knows fear he shows it not. With chin tucked to his chest, Eolan presses his attack. Voicing his rage, the fiery-haired warrior yells, "I shall hold this position, the rest of you flee for higher ground! I doubt that we can best this foul creature!"

OOC:

This isn't good; we need a plan and fast.
