This time it is Sesto's turn to curse as a glowing arrow appears from nowhere and strikes him in the back. And those stupid pebble towers are just a nuisance! The acolyte in front of him falls and Sesto turns to take in the scene. Bobranthus is really flagging now. I better help him. First Sesto whacks the Priest one more time with the spectral mace and then runs over to Bob and touching him gently and transfer Lathander's healing powers.

Round Four

Bob murders another acolyte with his axe while Pyrus singes the priest. Sesto rushes over to help Bob with a soothing cure spell, and the priest lunges at him with a similar, but much less nice wounding spell. Both spiritual weapons find their mark, and Sesto is felled by a sling stone that cracks him in the head over his left eyebrow.

Bob and Pyrus are pummeled by stones as well, when suddenly the entire room lurches. The ladder falls over, taking a banner with it. The acolyte in front of Bob falls to the ground, as does the cultist in the middle of the room. The priest holds onto Sesto's limp form and keeps his feet. The cultist using the corner for cover hugs the wall, looking terrified.

"The Dragon stirs! Your effrontery has angered him!" yells the priest, "You will die for this! Praise the Monarch Reborn!"

GM: My description was rushed, sorry about that. I was going to say that this was a good round for you, until I remembered the Priest hadn't gone, and now I've knocked poor Sesto out!
Bob and Pyrus need to roll Dex Saves or fall prone, (though they could just get back up on their turn, so it's not a big deal.
Sesto is down, so he doesn't have to roll (silver lining?)

OOC: Dex Save:: 1D20+2+1D4 = [19]+2+[4] = 25

It occurs to me that with Sesto down, Bless likely is as well. Still, I'm sure I made it.


Bob rides the shuddering floor in style, looking for all the world like a surfer. Only wielding two nasty weapons and covered in the blood of his enemies. He laughs even as the room shakes and then brings his weapons down on the last hapless acolyte before him before changing tack and closing in on the priest. "You hurt my friend. Be ready for your head bashing!"



Squirrels are evil!
 


OOC: I told the DM to assume an energy beam if I don't post.


Pyrus stands. He's had enough. He points his finger at the priest, tapping in to the fire within the priest. He attempts to increase the priest's body temperature to flaming levels.

OOC: Action: Combustion: DC 13 Dex Save or take [roll0] fire damage and catch on fire, taking 1d6 damage at the end of each it's turns until my concentration ends.

Round Five

Bob laughs and bashes the last acolyte while the room shakes. The acolyte swipes his mace at Bob, who easily knocks it
aside.

After he finishes speaking, the priest's blood boils - he's not angry, it literally boils - as Pyrus burns him from the inside out. It is not a pretty sight.

As the shaking stops, the cultist in the middle of the room climbs to his feet and runs for a door, while the other one slings a stone at Pyrus.

Sesto moans on the floor, alive for now, but out of it. From Sesto's slumped form the sound of Imani's muffled voice can be heard from the sending stone, "What was that!? Report, please! Are you there?"

Not long after, another voice responds, "We killed the Hydra and I think the Genasii went looking for our prize. They must have found it the hard way. Seems okay now, although the water has turned a murky green."

GM: I'm pretty sure Sesto had the Sending Stone as well as the Bhaalite Idol. Right? And I don't think any of this group has met Mord.
