Beyond the Rerisen Tower(DM Iron Sky, Judge: renau1g)

Return to the Tower, Round 4

There are too many ravens for the militia to be able to smash and break at once. Dozens of ravens rise again and, while only a few manage to take flight, they harry the party.

Meanwhile, the remaining Death Motes blast down several of the militia, the motes flaring as they bring the fallen back to life.

OOC: If the Storytelling is like other non-minions that have re-risen, it would have only had 1 HP when I hit it, thus it would now be 'dead' again...but that may not be the case for this much more difficult foe.

Click to expand...

Toeto walks underneath the necrotic wisp of energy and joins a militiaman next to his fallen comrade. Sprout floats through the air to join them. Once he arrives, he crushes the undead militia's throat to prevent its resurrection.

On the other side of the battle, another soldier charges at his now monstrous ally. Tears flowing freely down his cheek, he slams his spear into the creature's chest. The zombie remains still... for now.

[sblock=Toeto stats/actions][sblock=actions]Move: Sprout moves to C16 (1 up) and Toeto moves to C17.

Standard: Protecting Strike to CDG RRD4 (B17) hits Will 22+5=27, killing it for good. Militia 3 gains 3 THP.

Minor: Command Militia 15 (F29) to charge to G27 vs RRD3 (G26) hits AC 22. RRD3 is "dead."[/sblock][sblock=Spirit's Shield OA]Toeto can take OAs through her spirit companion if an enemy adjacent to it moves without shifting.

Notes
Any ally adjacent to Toeto's spirit companion regains +3 additional hit points when he or she uses second wind or when Toeto uses a healing power on him or her.

[sblock=Spirit Companion rules]The spirit companion is treated as a conjuration with some exceptions.

• It occupies 1 square like an ally does.
• It is only affected by melee or ranged attacks (not close/area attacks or zones).
• It is dispersed if it takes 11 or more damage from a single blow, and Toeto takes 6 damage. It is otherwise unaffected by attacks. It uses Toeto's defenses.
• It cannot be flanked and it does not grant flanking.
• It can move 5 squares whenever Toeto takes a move action. It is not affected by difficult terrain.

Iron: you listed the ravens as getting a MBA on militia 1 when he attacked... but that was for a CDG, at which point the ravens were already "dead" by the first militia's charge. The aura should have been down at that point. Not a huge deal, but it would save Fredrock 6 damage.

"Stay back friends," Salgyn says to the militia as he moves across the battle field, "We cyan finish off undead here. You do not vant to end up like your unfortunate comrades."

Then Salgyn breaks into his wind song once more, and as he does so a strong gust disperses one of the death motes.

As he has seen may rerise beforehand, Kaz take measures to kill the swarm once and for all. He flourishes his axe, leaping into the air he brings it down hard to the ground, causing a shockwave and flinging dust everywhere. As the dust settles, you find that the ravens have turned to ash, they shall rerise no more.
