Ghoul Grave: Round 7
Seeing her companion's odd behavior,
Ashlyn pushes her way into the side hole. There she sees the hideous ghoul---some aberrant undead of type she is unfamiliar with. Keeping her weapons up, she prepares to strike.
[Double Move; Kn (religion) check]
The song still in his head,
Ladreth manages to focus on what needs to be done. The song's distraction, however, spoils the attack.
[AC 14 misses]
The hideous ghoul stops its song. It still echos in Jarrith, Tessa, and Ladreth's head
[Captivated 1 more round], but it grins wickedly at the held fast Tessa. As it lunges for her throat, Ashlyn tries to hit it, but fails.
[AoO vs AC 12 misses] The savage wound, however, is deflected by Ashlyn's action, and Tessa clings to life.
[Coup de grace; 6hp; Tessa makes Fort save]
Jarrith is only passively aware of the attack on Tessa, so caught up in the song is he.
The nimble ghoul leaps out of Ladreth's way. As it does so, it attempts to bite Ladreth, but to no avail.
Annoyed at the ghoul's acrobatics,
Janis steps forward and unleashes the storm once again. The cursed undead leaps high in the air over the bolt, however, which slams uselessly into the stone wall.
[Reflex save; Evasion] But its arc is not enough to foil Marot, and his holy bolt slams it against the wall. It howls in pain, then flops lifelessly to the ground.
[Touch attach hits; 15hp; destroyed]
Tessa can only watch helpless as her neck is savaged, the captivating song and ghoul paralysis holding her fast.
