Curses. The creature lurched when Groknar struck it - Strength to Strike seemed very potent, if draining - and spoiled the aim on his Fireball. Still, the power of the blast was greater than Whitefire. Perhaps he could dispel the Holds on Tarkus and William - except they had cast spells or drank potions, so he'd be more likely to remove those effects. An Minor Globe would suppress the effect of course, but would be immobile, and thus useless since William and Tarkus seemed primarily melee combatants. Offense then.

"Sorry, Verra. I attempted to shoot through the eye, but missed."


Darian quickly casts Shield, then flies in close to fire the Quinelemental Blast through an eye of the creature, manuevering so as to minimize the risk of one of his more impetous companions charging into the spray of scintillating motes.

OOC: Shield, 9 min, +7 AC against one direction, oriented toward the 2 visible enemies. Quinelemental Blast: 9d6, ignores most elemental protections, 45 foot cone. Exact destination depends on where people are moving.

Groknar strong! Groknar kill! You pay for magicking my brother!

Groknar then steps forward [J6], raising his Greataxe into the air, and then smashing it down into the body of the blue. [+23 Attack, 1d12+20+2d6+1d6 Acid, 19-20/x3, Cleave into Lich if drop Blue]

Keia, I didn't notice the "with" part until after, but I'll apply it retroactively.

Taking advantage of the undead bear's collapse, Bellus runs around the wall of force and climbs up to the left eye to face off against the blue. The psionic goblin manifests defensively and goes invisible.

Verra moves up beside Tarkus and sends three arrows streaking in through the right eye at the lich. The arrows to do some damage, but the lich appears to have some type of barrier in effect and he is not bothered by the cold or the electricity (7, 6, and 4 damage).

The lich stares intently at the nomad brain locks Verra. Then he looks at Darian and brain locks the wizard, too.

Two ghasts spill from the side of the collapsed undead dire bear and attack Groknar. One hits him (8 damage), but he resists their terrible stench. He sees several more inside, cowering from the results of Tarkus' earlier turning.

Tuskaar rushes around the wall and moves to Groknar's aid, but the hungry undead avoid the bite of the boar. Groknar sees that the blue is out of sight and unleashes his wrath on the ghasts, smashing one and cleaving another before moving over to threaten the lich.

Zelestine drinks a healing potion which restores much of her damage. She runs to the hole in the side of the Taphos made by Groknar. Calling Tuskaar to her, she plunges in, hoping to flank the lich.

OOC:Sorry, Gru, I thught that you saw my OoC Thread:My Computer blew up/awaiting a new one... I asked all of the DMS to auto play me until I was able to post again. Im at work using the comps here, as mine hasn't showed yet...

Bellus will shoot arrows (assuming the Gird the Warrior' works on ranged attacks).
Je will stay mobile, trying ti avoid Melee with the undead, targetting the Lich as his primary target (using the MW arrows).

Now threatening the lich with his mighty axe, Groknar strikes his enemy twice with blood-drenched axe, bellowing, For Kord! For me brother Tarkus!

Gritting his teeth, William focuses all his energy onto attempting to move his leg, to even take a single step, willing himself to move forward.

OOC: I don't actually expect anything to happen, it's just something to post to show I'm not gonna take this Brain Lock laying do.. er.. standing still.

Bellus moves into a safe position and fires arrows at the lich. Like Verra's earlier shots, these are slowed by some type of barrier. The lich is hit by just one (1 damage).

The blue reappears on the other side of the wall of force, and uses his dorje. Whitefire erupts around William, Tarkus, and Verra. The flames pass underneath Darian, who still hovers near the wall. Tarkus is hurt the worst (20 damage, 10 damage to William and Verra).

The lich stares at the gnome, and Bellus is brain locked. He looks over his shoulder at Zelestine, and she is likewise held.

Tuskaar charges through the inside of the dire bear to attack the lich from behind. His bite succeeds, although it is reduced by the inertial barrier (6 damage).

Groknar unleashes his full fury on the undead menace. Two thunderous strikes from his greataxe pound into the lich. Each is slightly reduced in strength, but they still do considerable damage to its body (26 and 37 damage). The lich still stands, but barely.
